After hearing Wei Hai's words, Dou Fu walked forward a few steps, squatted at the place where the corpse was found, and observed it carefully.

His fingers groped the sand on the ground, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were somewhat heavy.

Suddenly, Dou Fu's fingers touched a hard object, and a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

He quickly stopped what he was doing and began to feel around the hard object repeatedly.

Soon Dou Fu picked up something from the ground with two fingers. He raised his hand, put it under the torch held by He Tianci, and looked at it in the light.

This turned out to be an earring!

Although Dou Fu didn't know who left this thing here, he had a vague feeling that this earring might play a crucial role in finding the person who harmed Uncle Dahu.

Wei Hai and He Tianci's eyes lit up when they saw the earrings in Dou Fu's hand.

This thing is definitely human, and wolves don't have pierced ears, so it's impossible for them to wear earrings.

As long as they can find the owner of the earrings, they will be one step closer to the truth.

The three people's hearts became excited at the same time.

Dou Fu carefully put the earrings into his pocket and continued searching in the cave.

He wanted to see if he could find something useful.

However, this time Dou Fu was obviously going to be disappointed.

He searched the cave inside and out and every corner three times, but did not find any valuable clues.

Fortunately, he did not gain nothing today.

The earring brought great comfort to Dou Fu's heart.

The three of them prepared to go down the mountain.

Wei Hai was silent all the way until they reached the foot of the mountain, when he suddenly said something to Dou Fu.

"Little brother, if you encounter any problems, you can come to us for help."

He Tianci also nodded at Dou Fu.

Dou Fu looked at the two of them with gratitude, thanked them solemnly, and quickly returned home.

At home, Grandma Dou was still lying in bed.

When she saw that it was Dou Fu who came back, Grandma Dou's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Afu, what did you gain today?"

Dou Fu, with a look of joy on his face, carefully took out the earring from his arms and handed it to Grandma Dou.

"Grandma, I found this in the wolf den. Do you recognize it? The owner of this earring must have been to the wolf den as well."

After hearing what Dou Fu said, Grandma Dou quickly took the earrings from Dou Fu's hand and put them close to her face to look at them carefully.

Suddenly, Grandma Dou exclaimed.

"This, this is the dowry earrings of Dou Youde's wife! I've seen it before, yes! It looks exactly like this, I definitely won't remember it wrong!"

After hearing what Grandma Dou said, Dou Fu was happy that the owner of the earrings was found so quickly, but also a little bit unbelieving.

"Grandma, are you sure this is really hers? Could it be heavier than someone else's?" Dou Fu asked Grandma Dou for confirmation.

Grandma Dou said in a decisive tone.

"I am sure that this earring is definitely hers. I remember very clearly that Dou Youde stole money from the family to buy this earring for her before they got married. My father-in-law was so angry that he almost beat Dou Youde to death."

Even if she forgot something, she couldn't have forgotten this matter.

There are men with elbows that bend outward, but it is rare to see them bend like this.

Not to mention that after Dou Youde’s wife got married, she often showed off these earrings, it would be strange if she didn’t remember them!

After listening to Grandma Dou's story, Dou Fu also found it outrageous.

However, it was also a disguised confirmation that Grandma Dou did not remember the wrong person.

"Grandma, now that we know the owner of the earring is her, it means she has been to that cave."

"Ah Fu, it was really them, they were the ones who killed Da Hu!"

Looking at the earring, Grandma Dou burst into tears.

Before she saw this pair of earrings, she still had some unrealistic fantasies.

She fantasized that her son really died in an accident on the mountain.

This way she would feel better.

But reality gave her a heavy blow.

Dou Youde's wife's earrings appeared in the wolf's cave, which means that at some time in the past, Dou Youde's wife must have been to this place.

But which good person would have nothing better to do than run into a wolf's den?

Thinking of this, the only answer is already apparent.

Dou Dahu’s death is definitely related to Dou Youde and his wife.

"Grandma, now that we already know that they were the ones who killed my Uncle Dahu, what do you think we should do?" Dou Fu asked.

Before Grandma Dou could say anything, Dou Fu continued, "Let's report to the police!"

After hearing what Dou Fu said, Grandma Dou shook her head.

"When the bodies were found that day, the people of Daquan Village also reported it to the authorities. The officials only confirmed the identities of the deceased and ruled their deaths as accidents. Now we don't have any evidence, so what can we do if we report it to the authorities?"

After so many years, all that was left of Dou Dahu was a skeleton. No matter how skilled the coroner was, he could not do anything without the necessary resources, and could not find anything out.

As for the earring, it only proves that Dou Youde had been to that place, but it cannot prove that he killed anyone.

Dou Youde did have a motive for murder. Grandma Dou thought that not long after her husband died, the tribe was going to divide the forest farm.

Logically speaking, her family and Dou Youde's family share the property.

But not long after her family was divided up, Dou Dahu had an accident.

After Dou Dahu died, not only did her family's share of the forest farm go to Dou Youde's family, but even the family's land and house were all taken over by Dou Youde's family.

Although Dou Youde had sufficient motives to harm others.

but……

Who else saw him kill Dou Dahu with their own eyes?

"Grandma, the clan leader will definitely not seek justice for us. Now we can't even report to the police." Dou Fu was filled with grief and indignation.

Grandma Dou was in despair and tears streamed down her face.

He kept muttering, "This is forcing us into a dead end. This is forcing us into a dead end."

After crying, Grandma Dou raised her sleeves to wipe her tears and said hatefully.

"Tomorrow I will go chop them up and avenge Da Hu."

"Grandma, you are old and weak. I'm afraid you will be knocked over before you get close to Dou Youde and the others." Dou Fu was thinking about the feasibility of Grandma Dou's plan.

The result is zero feasibility.

How could an old and frail man possibly be a match for that family?

Even if he went with Grandma Dou, he would still be beaten.

Suddenly, a light flashed in Dou Fu's mind, and he remembered what Wei Hai had said to him not long ago.

Of course, he didn't want Wei Hai to help him kill someone.

He just had no other choice, and he wanted to ask Wei Hai and the others if there was any other solution.

He was sure that Wei Hai and He Tianci were both good people. Moreover, they had nothing to do with this matter, so perhaps there would be a different way.

After all, sometimes those involved are confused while those who are not involved can see things more clearly.

In this case, there is strength in numbers, so he will go and ask them tomorrow.
