C91 (1/2)
The man on the stretcher had his right eye rolled out and his face was covered in blood. His mouth was wide open and he was probably going to drop his chin if he were any bigger. There was a purple scar on his neck.
Kelly covered her mouth with all her might, but she was still unable to control herself. With a scream, she was paralyzed on the ground.
After confirming, the dead person was Kelly's family's servant.
At this moment, the policeman who was interrogating me came over and called me to a corner of the police station. He looked at the statement in his hand, then said with a puzzled expression, ”I have a question that I don't quite understand. I hope you can tell me the truth.”
I nodded. ”Tell me, I'll tell you what I know.”
he asked me. ”You said you went into the bedroom to get your clothes, you took them first, and when you came out there was someone hanging from the ceiling in the mirror. Is that right?”
I said yes.
Then he asked, ”That's not right. The house is only so big, why didn't you see it when you went in and you saw it when you came out? Do you mean that in the process of taking your clothes, someone hanged the servant in front of you, but you didn't see him? ”
I was too nervous to think of such an omission. The police were right, if there was a person hanging from the ceiling, I should have been able to see him as soon as I entered, but why didn't I see him when I entered?
Seeing that I couldn't answer his question, the policeman's expression changed. He said to me, ”You'd better be honest, don't look like you're Chinese. If you are suspicious, we will also mercilessly arrest you!”
I thought, what logic is this? What does this have to do with me being Chinese?
I hastened to explain, ”Comrade Police Officer, I can assure you that what I said was true. The questions you just asked were completely reasonable, but I did not lie at all. I told you everything I knew, and I couldn't answer because I didn't know what was going on either.”
The policeman didn't say anything for a long time. He stroked his beard and thought for a long time before he finally said to me, You can go back first.
He said, ”You go back first.” There was a hint of not wanting me to leave, but there was no evidence, so he could only say, ”It looks like the police are targeting me.”
When I went out, Kelly was still sitting on the ground with Second Uncle standing beside me.
Second Uncle was a very conservative person. Seeing Kelly like this, he did not dare go forward to pull her, and did not know what to do.
Seeing that I had come out, Second Uncle asked me why did the police call me in again? Are you all right?
In order to not worry him, I told him that he was fine, and then pulled Kelly up from the ground. I took her back to the car and went back.
