Tang shi took a deep breath and suddenly let out a scream, hurriedly denying, "It wasn't me who killed him. I didn't kill him."
Shu Yu narrowed her eyes. Just now, she seemed to have hesitated for a moment.
"Tang, you..."
Before Shu Yu could finish her sentence, Tang Shi's screams grew louder. "It wasn't me! It really wasn't me! He held the knife and fell into a crack in the stone by himself. We had an argument, and he got too excited and accidentally fell. It just happened, it just happened..."
As she spoke, Tang Shi looked up and suddenly widened her eyes. "I went to pull out the knife, ahhh... so much blood, so much blood gushing out... Ah, hahaha, he's dead, he's dead. Everyone, come and see, there's a dead body. Come quickly..."
Tang shi burst into laughter, attracting the attention of the villagers who hadn't left the gate yet.
Jiang Gongzi was stunned. "This... she's... crazy?"
Shu Yu sneered. "Pretending to be crazy."
Someone who had planned to approach the Wang family, dared to elope and take the money, would their psychological endurance be so poor?
Moreover, Old Man Cui had been killed and his body had been lying in the cellar for two days, but she hadn't shown any signs of suspicion. How could someone like that easily go crazy?
She was simply trying to evade responsibility.
Shu Yu walked forward and squatted down, firmly pinching Tang shi's cheeks. "Tang shi, I'm asking you, where is Old Man Cui's granddaughter? What did you do to her?"
"Hahaha, hoo hoo hoo, there's a dead body, how fun, so much fun." Tang shi laughed cheerfully, struggling but unable to break free. She looked at Shu Yu with a pout, her brows wrinkled in grievance. "You're hurting me with your pinching. Let go, or I'll tell my mother when I go home. Spit..."
She spat at Shu Yu, but Shu Yu quickly turned her head and avoided it.
However, this behavior clearly angered her. Shu Yu lifted her entire face upwards, causing Tang shi to be unable to open her mouth and could only tilt her head back.
But this position was extremely uncomfortable, and it felt like her neck was about to break.
Tang burst into tears.
Shu Yu remained unmoved, her voice sinister. "Tang shi, I know you're pretending to be crazy. Tell me honestly, where is Old Man Cui's granddaughter, or don't blame me for being rude."
Tang shi cried and laughed, and Shu Yu lost her patience. She looked up and instructed Ying Xi, "Bring her in."
She let go and walked into the main hall.
Ying Xi pulled Tang shi, dragging her in along with the screaming and shouting woman.
Jiang Gongzi stood outside in a daze. After a while, he regained his composure and hurriedly caught up, saying, "Miss Lu, you're not thinking of resorting to extrajudicial punishment, right? It's inappropriate. If the officials find out what you've done, you'll get into trouble too."
"Finding that little girl is the priority now. I can't worry about that much. I will explain to the officials, I believe they will understand." Shu Yu always cared more about children. If they could find the missing girl in time, there was a chance she would be safe and sound.
If they missed even a tiny bit of time, and something happened to her, it would be too late to regret.
Jiang Gongzi felt that she was too naive. "It's not as easy as you think. The officials..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Shu Yu had already taken action. She firmly pinched Tang's pinky finger and pressed it backward.
"Ah..." Tang shi felt like her finger was about to break. Cold sweat instantly covered her forehead, and she looked at the young girl in front of her, who seemed so young and yet had a voice that could frighten people.
