The eggs were too delicious. Naughty Dog couldn’t forget the taste.
Therefore, he agreed to tell Zhao Dahe everything he knew.
Naughty Dog wiped his mouth. As Su Ying was on her way out, he suddenly asked, “Big Sister, why haven’t I seen you before?”
Su Ying answered with a laugh without any change in her expression, “Of course, you’ve seen me before. It’s just that you have forgotten. Let’s go.”
Naughty Dog looked at Su Ying’s back profile with an ambiguous expression, but he still followed her all the way to Zhao Dahe’s house.
“You go in and tell him. I still have work to do, so I’ll leave first.” Su Ying didn’t enter the house with Naughty Dog.
Ever since Er Ni’s incident, Zhao Dahe had not gone out to do any work. Instead, he stayed at home just in case anything happened so that he could handle it in time.
Zhao Dahe was very surprised by Naughty Dog’s visit. “Naughty Dog, why are you here?”
Naughty Dog lowered his head and hesitated for a long time before explaining his purpose or coming.
“Uncle Village Chief, I saw the person who took advantage of Sister Er Ni that night.”
“What?” Zhao Dahe thought that his ears were playing tricks on him.
“That place is not far from my house’s courtyard. I saw it. It was Li Hai and his brother. They were dressed in black clothes when they attacked.”
Zhao Dahe’s expression clouded over totally. He looked around. When he saw that no one was around, he immediately pulled Naughty Dog into the courtyard and closed the gate.
“Tell me what you just said again.”
Naughty Dog repeated his words dutifully. Zhao Dahe’s expression turned from shock to anger, and finally to extreme rage.
Nonetheless, he quickly calmed down.
“What evidence do you have to say that it was the two of them? You can’t anyhow say things like this.”
“That night, I saw that when they failed to do anything to Sister Er Ni, they ran into the forest. When they came out again, I recognized them.”
What Naughty Dog meant was that he saw two people in black running into the forest, but when those two came out of the forest, their black clothes had changed into coarse cloth clothes, and he saw their faces clearly.
Naughty Dog’s words overturned all of Zhao Dahe’s previous thoughts.
He never thought that this was done by his own village’s people!
These two despicable thugs were really bold!
“You said they fled into the woods that night? And that they had changed their clothes when they came out?”
Naughty Dog nodded. “That’s right. I saw them.”
“Other than me, who else did you tell?”
“A big sister.”
“Big sister?”
Naughty Dog gave a mumble. “Uncle Village Chief, didn’t you ask Big Sister to bring me delicious food?”
Zhao Dahe stood rooted to the same spot in shock. He was so frustrated now so how could he be in the mood to ask someone to send stuff to Naughty Dog?
“You said that you told that big sister about this? Or did that big sister teach you to say these words to me?”
“Uncle, didn’t you ask that big sister to look for me? I told her about this.”
“That big sister…What does she look like?”
Naughty Dog described Su Ying’s appearance. Zhao Dahe searched his mind thoroughly but could not figure out who she was.
“Do you know where she went?”
“She said she was going to work. What’s wrong, Uncle Village Chief? Is there something wrong with that big sister?”
Zhao Dahe did not answer. He had already thought of all sorts of possibilities.
If Naughty Dog didn’t recognize someone, then that person definitely wasn’t from Shangyao Village. In the entire Tiger Base, other than Zhou Xing’s family and those black-robed men, the rest were from Shangyao Village. Now, an unfamiliar woman had shown up…
She even found out the truth about that matter…
“Where is this forest? Bring me to take a look.”
Naughty Dog led Zhao Dahe to the small forest.
After Zhao Dahe entered the forest, he searched around for something. After searching one round, he noticed that there were traces of soil under the tree that had been disturbed. He dug with his bare hands and uncovered a bundle from under the tree. There were two sets of black clothes inside the bundle.
Zhao Dahe’s heart sank to the bottom of the abyss.
“See, Uncle Village Chief? I didn’t lie to you, did I? It’s Li Hai and the others pretending to be black-robed men.” Naughty Dog looked at the black clothes with a smug expression.
However, Zhao Dahe could not bring himself to laugh. He looked at Naughty Dog with a stern expression.
“Naughty Dog, go back first. Don’t mention this to anyone else.”
Naughty Dog asked with a doubtful expression, “Uncle Village Chief, are we going to fight a war with those black-robed men? Will we die if we lose?”
Zhao Dahe could not answer, but judging from the black-robed men’s methods, if they were to really fight, even if they could win, it would be a Pyrrhic victory.
That was not the outcome he wanted to see.
“Silly boy, what are you thinking about? What war? Go back quickly and don’t talk nonsense. Otherwise, you won’t be able to deal with the trouble you bring upon yourself.”
Naughty Dog nodded without fully understanding. “I understand, Uncle Village Chief.”
Zhao Dahe carried the bundle back with a heavy heart.
He had not thought of what to do.
Previously, the people in the village had all believed that this was done by the black-robed men. He also wanted to use this matter to negotiate with them and gain more benefits for the villagers.
However, now, the matter had nothing to do with the black-robed men. He felt a little guilty when he faced the black-robed men again. Since they didn’t do it, how could they admit it?
Zhao Dahe was caught in a dilemma for a while.
“Father, what are you doing?”
When Zhao Dahe’s son returned from work, he saw Zhao Dahe squatting under the eaves, deep in thought.
“Are you worried about Er Ni’s matter? Since those people did it, we can’t just let it go. Otherwise, they’ll really think that we’re pushovers.”
Zhao Dahe suddenly raised his head and asked, “What if it’s not them?”
“What did you say, Father?”
Zhao Dahe frowned. “If they didn’t do it… what should we do?”
“How could it not be them? So many people saw it. Father, you’re not saying this because you’re afraid of them, are you? Do you really want us to be slaves here for the rest of our lives?”
Zhao Dahe’s expression turned darker. When they were here… they were not exactly working their butts off. After all, they also had to do these jobs back in their village. If they didn’t do it, where would they get food?
“Father, the three days are almost up. If they don’t give us an explanation by then, we won’t let this matter rest.”
Zhao Dahe looked at his furious son and pursed his lips. In the end, he did not say anything.
Meanwhile, Su Ying returned to Mrs. Zhou’s house after leaving Naughty Dog’s house.
Mrs. Zhou was very curious about Su Ying’s plan. “City Lord, why did you put that bundle back?”
“To test human nature.”
Mrs. Zhou was puzzled. How was this supposed to test human nature?
Su Ying didn’t say anything else. All she needed to do was wait.
On the third day of the time limit the Black Guardian promised the villagers, the people of Shangyao Village gathered outside the Tiger Base early in the morning.
The Black Guardian glanced at Su Ying.
“What are you looking at me for? Just do what you have to do. Since you have already investigated and found no problem with the black-robed men, the problem must be with other people.”
The Black Guardian nodded and signaled to the black-robed man to let the villagers in..
