Chapter 365: The eighth child

In the dark night, an old man who was full of mystery stood at the door so quietly, and the old man was the owner of the house, but the old man who was the owner of the house looked at Fang Ming and Ye Ziyu in silence at the door. No, just thinking about Ye Ziyu is a little chilly.

Ye Ziyu is not that kind of thick-skinned person. For her, so uninvited to enter other people's homes, but also discovered by the owner, his face instantly turned crimson.

"Old man... that... I'm sorry, we just shouted for a long time and no one answered, so I opened the door and came in and looked at it."

After saying this, Ye Ziyu blushed like a fire and didn't dare to look at the old man's eyes. Of course, she couldn't see the old man's eyes in this dark environment.

"What are you doing at my house?"

The old man finally spoke, his voice as hoarse as before.

"Of course to find the real secrets of the whole island and your identity."

Ye Ziyu was about to speak, but Fang Ming's voice came from behind her. Then, Fang Ming walked to her side and felt Fang Ming's breath, so she felt calmer in her heart.

"Truth?" The old man was silent for a while, and suddenly a giggling laughter suddenly emerged. "What truth do you know? All you know is the truth you think you are."

"Of course I know." Fang Ming raised his lips, "such as your identity?"

"My identity? Then I want to hear from you, what is my identity?"

Fang Ming smiled slightly and looked at the old man. "Your identity is very simple. You were the son of Widow He. All the villagers did not notice that when they killed the children, a child hid on the side to steal. Look and see all of this in the eyes."

"Fang Ming, what do you mean?"

The old man didn't answer, Ye Ziyu's face was surprised, because she didn't know why Fang Ming said that, wasn't it seven boys, where was the eighth boy?

"Tzuyu, all of us have fallen into a misunderstanding, thinking that there were only seven children at that time, but in fact there were eight children in that year, in addition to the seven children of the victims, and the child of He Widow himself."

Fang Ming looked at Ziyu, "Do you still remember that nursery rhyme, the last sentence of this nursery rhyme: one by one was locked up, one by one chanted away, and one by one returned."

"At the time we thought that this last one came back, it should be the kid who was sent away, but then I found that something was wrong. If that was the case, then this nursery rhyme was not necessary at all. This is the last sentence of this nursery rhyme. On the surface, there are three children. The child who returned is not the same as the two children in front."

Ye Yu expressed a thoughtful look on his face, "Three children were poisoned, one ran into the sea and drowned, one fell in the sand and suffocated, one was shut, one was sent away, and this returned ..."

"I see, that is, the children's rhymes are not seven children, but eight children."

"Yes, this is the real message in the nursery rhymes. There were eight children in total. All the villagers did not know that. At that time, a child was hiding in the dark. After witnessing their atrocities, he fled the island. ."

Fang Ming looked at the old man again. The old man smiled, and the scar became distorted, and it looked even more terrible.

"It's a good guess, but don't forget, if I were really a child of Widow He, how could the villagers not find out that He is a person in the village, and the villagers could not have seen his children."

The old man smiled and looked at Fang Ming with a mocking look in his eyes.

Fang Ming smiled faintly, "Yes, He Widow is a person in the village, there must be a villager who knows her child, but don't forget, He Widow is a widow, and the villagers rarely come to He Widow in order to avoid suspicion. Home. So, even if these villagers have seen the children of He Widow, I’m afraid they don’t have many times.”

"Of course, this is just one point. The main point is that not all villagers know the death of these children. After all, the victims were burned for the benefit of everyone in the village, but there must be some villagers who did not agree to kill the children, so they started. Of those who did not tell the children of the village about their children."

"Perhaps it happened that the hands-on people happened to be unfamiliar with Widow He, hadn’t seen the children of He Widow, or even seen them, but don’t forget, there was a kid running towards the sea at that time, maybe it was just that time When the tide was low, the child ran into the water and was washed away by the sea water, so those hands-on villagers did not pay attention to the appearance of the child in the sea. They subconsciously thought that this child was Widow He’s own child."

Speaking of this, Fang Ming noticed a slight change in the old man's eyes, and unconsciously turned to the left. After seeing the old man's move, Fang Ming smiled.

Those who have learned micro-expressions know that if one's eyes turn to the right, it means dodge and thinking, but if it turns to the left, it means that it is a memory.

"It sounds a coincidence, but in fact this is the case. No villager knows that He Widow adopted seven children of the victims, nor does he know that He Widow's own child survived and returned to the island someday in the future."

Ye Ziyu listened to Fang Ming's remarks, and opened her mouth slightly in surprise, because what Fang Ming said was incredible, but if you think about it carefully, it is not impossible.

Sometimes, reality is such a coincidence.

"It's all your speculation, do you have any evidence?" The old man looked at Fang Ming and continued to ask.

"Evidence, I believe there will be soon."

But just after Fang Ming's words fell, his mobile phone rang, glanced at the caller number on his phone, and Fang Ming looked up at the scarred old man from the corner of his mouth, "The evidence you want is here."

Instead of putting the phone in his ear to answer, Fang Ming directly pressed the answer button.

"Hey, Fang Ming, you know what I investigated, it's incredible."

On the phone, Hua Mingming's voice came out, and Fang Ming just smiled faintly and said, "Then Widow has a child, right."

"Huh, how do you know?"

On the other end of the phone, Hua Mingming's voice was a little puzzled, but then said: "Yes, I just asked the older men in the village. According to their memories, the widow He did have a child, and The husband of Widow He is not on the island, and no one in the village even knows the husband of Widow He."

"According to these uncles, Widow He left the island when he was young, and when he came back, he took a child, and the latter lived in the corner of the village. The widow He was ashamed of them, and he was directly cut off from the widow."

"In addition, I asked these uncles, they didn't know about the children of the victims adopted by the widow."

When it comes to this, Hua Mingming's tone becomes a little excited, "Fang Ming, I have a bold guess. Isn't the nursery rhyme saying that a child was sent away, a child was locked up, and another child came back? ?"

"Actually, I think we all guessed wrong. There are three children in this nursery rhyme. The child who came back was not a dumb child, but the widow's biological son."

"Fang Ming, is this my speculation very exciting? Please call me Formalin in the future, and my speculation is definitely not wrong. Wang Guodong is impossible for them to find the dumb boy. They are wrong from beginning to end. of."

With a proud tone of Hua Mingming, Fang Ming was really not good at hitting him. He coughed now and continued to ask: "Other than that, what do I ask you to investigate?"

"There is no useful information about the Wang family's investigation. It is only from the mouth of these uncles that the Wang family has been on the island for a long time, at least it has a family history of two or three hundred years."

"OK, I know."

"Hello, Fang Ming... you shouldn't..."

Before waiting for Hua Mingming's merits, Fang Ming just hung up the phone and looked at the old man with a smile. "The evidence is now available."

The old man was silent. After a long time, the old face shook, the scar on his face twisted, and he slowly said, "I have to admit that you are a very smart young man."

"Yes, my mother really adopted seven children, plus I have eight children in total, and those people thought my mother only adopted six children, thinking I was the child who was drowned in the sea. ."

Fang Ming and Ye Ziyu glanced at each other, and their eyes lit up at the same time. The scarred old man finally admitted.

"You saw everything, saw the murderers who hurt your mother, and the villagers who killed your playmates, so when you returned to school after that year, you returned to the village, changed your face and slept, ready to take revenge. ."

"If I am not wrong, the old Zhang family was killed by you, and in addition to the old Zhang family, the former murderer villagers may have been killed by you."

"Yes, those executioners were killed by me. That's the price they should pay. The old man of the Zhang family is the last one." The old man with scars did not deny it and admitted directly.

"Old man, you killed the old man in that house for revenge, but why do you still want to kill people at the temple entrance? Isn't this indiscriminate killing of innocent people?"

Ye Ziyu looked at the scarred old man, his face puzzled and angry.

"Tzuyu, you are wrong. The man at the temple entrance was not killed by him. The other man who killed the man at the temple entrance was only for revenge, while some people were killing people by any means to achieve their purpose. ."
