Global Evolution: I Super Double Up on my evolution-Chapter 380 - 189 This world is full of malice!_2

After noticing the teapot on the table was empty, the middle-aged man shouted towards a room at the front. His tone sounded unfriendly; he was likely a chauvinist who enjoyed yelling orders at his wife.

Shortly after the man spoke, a woman limped out from the house. This was the same limping woman Su Yan had seen earlier on the village road. Now, under the man’s gaze, she meekly began to prepare tea for Su Yan and Sister Zhou.

A moment after she finished preparing the tea, the woman humbly poured a cup for Su Yan and Sister Zhou, saying, "Please, enjoy the tea."

Seeing this, Su Yan smiled. "Ma’am, there’s no need to be so polite. I can help myself."

Upon seeing Su Yan’s smile, the woman seemed somewhat distracted. She had never seen such a handsome man, and for a moment, she couldn’t help but recall her days as a young maiden.

Just then, a violent coughing fit suddenly erupted from the front room.

"COUGH... COUGH COUGH!"

The cough sounded labored, as if the person might stop breathing at any moment.

"Zhang Ruoshan! Our son is coughing so badly, and you’re just standing there? Why aren’t you going in to take care of him?!"

Seeing his wife standing there in a daze, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but scold her, his tone quite unpleasant.

Hearing his voice, the woman snapped back to her senses and limped into the room, looking terrified of her husband.

After the woman left, Su Yan wasted no time and went straight to the point. "Village Chief, I heard there was an incident involving Demons and Monsters in your village, with several young men dying from sudden heart attacks. Is this true?"

"Yes, it’s true," the man replied gravely. He then continued, "This all started last September. Back then, a family in the village was celebrating their son’s wedding and had invited everyone in the village to the banquet. However, while the bride and groom were toasting the guests, the groom suddenly collapsed and never got up. He died right there at his own wedding, turning a joyous occasion into a tragedy.

"Over the past year, young men in the village have died successively, each death identical. According to the investigators who came, these young men all died from sudden heart attacks, and it was suspected that Yin entities were to blame.

"However, despite what they said, this year alone, at least twenty or thirty, if not nearly a hundred, Monster Hunters came to investigate. Yet, none found anything substantial. Unfortunately, one even died here in the village. His cause of death was the same as the others—a sudden heart attack. After that, no one dared to come to our village to investigate anymore.

"That’s everything I know. If you two have any other questions, feel free to ask. I won’t hold anything back."

With that, the middle-aged man fell silent, waiting for Su Yan and Sister Zhou to respond.

After a moment of silence, Su Yan finally asked, "I’d like to know, Village Chief, why did you send those women home earlier?"

At this question, the middle-aged man was taken aback. Weren’t we talking about Demons and Monsters? Why suddenly ask such an unrelated question? This is completely baffling! He grumbled inwardly, then answered calmly, "Because Monster Hunters often come to the village to investigate the Demons and Monsters, and there was an incident where a young woman was harassed. So, when I saw you two looked unfamiliar, I quickly told them to go home, to prevent any unpleasant incidents from happening again."

"Oh, I see," Su Yan nodded, seemingly without suspicion. However, this was merely feigned belief; inwardly, his suspicions had fully awakened. While the man was speaking, Su Yan had used the corner of his eye to observe his pupils and noticed they were fluctuating significantly. Much like shifty eyes, fluctuating pupils are an indicator of lying. Undoubtedly, the man was lying.

Su Yan quickly asked another question, "I noticed your wife has some trouble with her leg. How did that happen?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

As soon as Su Yan spoke, not only was the middle-aged man baffled, but Sister Zhou, standing beside him, was also perplexed. She didn’t understand what Su Yan was doing. Why is he suddenly asking questions completely unrelated to the Demons and Monsters incident? Is he just bored and looking for trouble?

Under Su Yan’s gaze, the middle-aged man replied somewhat helplessly, "She fell while farming when she was young. Medical care wasn’t good in the village back then, and it didn’t heal properly, leaving her with a permanent ailment."

"Oh, I see," Su Yan nodded as before. And in his heart, just as before, another layer of doubt formed. Because the middle-aged man had lied again. Each time Su Yan asked him a question, his pupils would fluctuate as he lied. No one would believe there wasn’t something more to this.

"COUGH... COUGH COUGH!"

Suddenly, another violent coughing fit came from the front room. It sounded even more severe than the earlier bout, as if the person were indeed on the brink of death.

At the sound, the middle-aged man immediately stood up from his seat and hurried into the room, his face etched with anxiety.
