The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore

“I don’t know whether he’s dead or alive.”

After a pause, Wang Ma added another sentence.

Upon hearing this, Gu Ranle frowned slightly, and a solemn look flashed across her eyes.

Wang Ma thought she didn't believe it, so she quickly said, "It's true. If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."

Gu Ranle didn't say much, just nodded, and the two of them walked quickly towards the pond, one in front and one behind.

"It's right there." Wang Ma pointed to the place where the lotus leaves fell not far away and stopped moving. "Miss, I, I'm scared. I don't dare to go over there..."

Gu Ranle looked at her pale face, raised his hand and gently patted her shoulder.

"You stay here, I'll go down and take a look at the situation."

"Miss, please slow down. It just rained and the road is slippery." Aunt Wang reminded from behind.

"understood."

Gu Ranle walked to the place where Wang Ma had just picked lotus leaves. Just as she bent down to pull apart the lotus leaves, she heard Wang Ma's scream suddenly from the shore.

"what--"

Gu Ranle stood up and looked back.

I saw Wang Ma staring with her eyes wide open and pointing at a place with a trembling hand.

"Knife! There's a knife!"

Gu Ranle looked in the direction of her finger and saw a shiny machete about fifty centimeters long on the steps beside the pond about three meters away from her!

In the sunlight, the blade sparkles and pierces the eyes.

"Old Wang, what's your name so early in the morning?"

Butler Zhao's voice came from behind.

Mother Wang turned around immediately, not even having time to hide the panic on her face.

"No, it's nothing."

"nothing?"

Butler Zhao frowned, "Do you think I'm deaf?"

He quickly reached the edge of the pond, and Aunt Wang had no time to stop him.

"Miss?"

"Old Zhao, call the police."

Gu Ranle had already pulled aside the lotus leaves and saw the person floating on the water.

His face was facing downwards, so I couldn't see what he looked like. I could only tell from his clothes that he was a man.

"Call the police?"

Butler Zhao was stunned for a moment, then he noticed the long knife on the steps. After a little thought, his face suddenly turned gloomy and he immediately took out his cell phone to call the police.

While waiting for the police car to arrive, Wang Ma learned from the description of Butler Zhao that late last night, when it was raining heavily, someone hacked to death all seven dogs, including Xiao Hei, who were tied to the door to guard the door.

She got up early in the morning and had not yet had time to go out to buy groceries, so she had not seen the bloody scene at the gate, otherwise she would have screamed long ago.

"My poor little blackie! I prepared a big chicken drumstick for him this morning! Who on earth chopped him to death?"

Mother Wang clenched her fists, angry.

At this moment, the anger in her heart had already driven away the fear, and the person floating in the pond could no longer scare her at all.

Butler Zhao took a look into the pond. Although he did not pull aside the lotus leaves to look, he was 99.9% sure that the man was the one who killed Xiao Hei and his brothers.

It really is retribution!

Not long after, several police cars arrived.

Although the scene at the gate was not damaged by human activities, the rain last night was so heavy that not much useful information was left at the scene.

We can only confirm temporarily that all the dogs died from being cut by sharp weapons.

The person in the pond was also salvaged, and was already dead. The forensic doctor initially concluded that he drowned, and the time of death would have to be further determined after returning.

His face was swollen and unrecognizable, so he needed to be taken back for DNA testing to confirm his identity.

The machete by the pond did not have any fingerprints on it, but it was suspected to be the murder weapon and was also taken away.

The police officer questioned the people who lived in Gu's house last night.

Sisters Gu Yueming and Gu Pingting were still sleeping. They were woken up by Aunt Wang and found out that something happened at home last night.

The two sisters and Aunt Wang knew nothing about anything and slept deeper than pigs last night.

Finally, Gu Ranle and Butler Zhao were questioned separately.

Police Officer A: "Zhao Mingde, why didn't you call the police when you saw the dog being hacked to death last night?"

Butler Zhao: "When I saw the dogs die tragically, I felt very sad and angry. Later, the eldest lady came over and told me to go back to sleep, so I didn't think of calling the police."

Officer A: "You said you saw a figure in the yard last night?"

Housekeeper Zhao: "It was raining hard and windy, and the lighting in the yard was not good. I suspected that I was dazzled, because when I rubbed my eyes and looked again, everything in front of me was blurry and I couldn't see anything."

After asking a few simple questions, the police officer let Butler Zhao leave.

On the other side, sitting in front of Gu Ranle were Police Officers B, C, and D.

Officer B: "What time were you awakened by the thunder and rain last night?"

Gu Ranle: "I didn't check the time, but if you want to know, you can check the surveillance in the house. I woke up, put on some clothes and went downstairs. It took me three minutes at most to go from the bedroom to appear on the surveillance screen. Oh, by the way, there are also surveillance cameras in my yard, with 360-degree coverage."

Police Officer C: "There was thunder and lightning, wind and rain, what were you doing downstairs in the yard?"

Gu Ranle: "My house was smashed by a group of people two days ago. Except for housekeeper Zhao and nanny Wang, all the others were injured to varying degrees and were hospitalized. No one was on duty at night. In addition, in such a large house, there were only me, my cousin, Wang, and housekeeper Zhao living there last night. The house was smashed and they lived in my newly bought mobile home last night. I have never lived in a house like that. It was so rainy outside, I was worried, so I went to take a look."

Police Officer D: "Did you find anyone suspicious?"

Gu Ranle: "If I find out, do you think I will wait until dawn to call the police?"

Police Officer B: "Zhao Mingde told you at night that he saw a figure in the yard."

Gu Ranle: "The person he saw should be me, because when he got up to check the yard, I had already checked the yard and didn't see anyone."

Police Officer C: "Why didn't you call the police last night when you found the dog guarding the gate hacked to death?"

Gu Ranle: "Will it be useful to report it? You have arrested so many people who smashed my house and interrogated them for two days. What results have you come up with? I suspect that the people who smashed my house last night were all instructed by one or a group of people. I can't rely on others. I can only rely on myself."

Officer D: "What are you going to do?"

Gu Ranle: "Pretend nothing happened. The other party is not aware of the situation and will definitely send someone to investigate. Then we can catch them in the trap."

Police Officer B: "Then why did you ask Zhao Mingde to call the police not long ago?"

Gu Ranle: "A person was found in the pond in your yard, and there was a big knife beside the pond. Why didn't you call the police?"

The three police officers took turns asking questions, and Gu Ranle's mouth was dry from answering.

An hour later, the questioning finally ended.

"Miss, what took you so long?" Butler Zhao was pacing anxiously outside the door.

Gu Ranle shrugged and said self-deprecatingly, "Maybe they think I'm not a good person. They almost wrote 'the person who drowned in the pond is related to me' on their face."

"Miss, does this really have anything to do with you?"

"..."
