In the book, I was fed by my sister

"Here I come!" With a rough shout, the door opened and a man with a full beard appeared in front of Song Ran and Song Li.

The man explained, "My parents have gone to bed, and they asked me to leave the door open for you."

wrong!

Song Ran remembered that the old lady mentioned that she would go out to sell food at night. She became alert and instinctively tightened her grip on Song Li's hand and took a step back.

"Come in, it's getting late and I should..." The man's voice was interrupted by a sudden scream.

A figure ran out of the house, but was quickly dragged back by something unknown.

While the man in front of him was distracted, Song Ran picked up Song Li and ran towards the street.

The noise was so loud that nearby lights came on, and neighbors came out of their homes. They saw a young woman running in panic with a child in her arms, so they went up to her and asked, "Girl, what's wrong? What happened?"

Song Ran turned around and found that the man had not chased him out. The dark yard seemed like a cave, and there was a constant sound of rustling and whimpering coming from it.

Song Ran was still in shock. He pointed ahead and said tremblingly, "It seems... we were robbed."

Someone called out loudly: "Wang family! Are you home?"

However, no one in the house answered.

Someone in the crowd shouted, "I'm going to report it to the police!"

Then, someone else volunteered to go into the yard with a torch. They called out loudly, "Uncle Wang! Are you home?"

Suddenly, two men ran out of the room, shouting for help with terrified looks on their faces.

The neighbors were all familiar with the Wang family. When they saw strangers running out, they shouted, "Catch them! Don't let them get away!"

The crowd held the two men down with sticks in their hands. The two men looked terrified and didn't even resist, lying on the ground like weaklings.

Seeing the two men being subdued, someone in the crowd ran in to rescue the old couple from the Wang family.

But soon, the people who had been rescued into the house ran out in a panic, shouting, "Someone's dead!"

At this moment, government officers and soldiers also quickly rushed to the scene.

The leader was Zhang Gaopeng, who quickly made a preliminary understanding of the scene. He only asked two questions and immediately ordered the criminal to be tied up and taken back to the government office for interrogation.

In order to avoid causing panic, he then ordered people to evacuate the crowd in the small courtyard, and then led two officers and soldiers into the house.

After entering the house, a strong smell of blood hit him from the side room door. Zhang Gaopeng kicked the door open and saw a big man lying in a pool of blood with an obvious hole in his back.

He immediately ordered: "Go search the other rooms."

"Yes!"

Soon, someone reported: "Captain Zhang, we found two people tied up in the woodshed. They had head injuries."

Zhang Gaopeng asked: "How are they doing now?"

The person reporting the incident replied: "The man was still able to groan a few times, but the woman was unconscious."

"Quickly send them to the hospital for treatment."

"Yes!"

Song Li lay obediently on her sister's shoulder, sighing that the spring water given by Su Xiaoxiao was indeed nourishing, and now her vine had become even harder.

The man and woman from the Wang family were sent to the clinic for treatment, while Song Ran, as a person involved in the case, was taken back to the government office.

Zhang Gaopeng thought of Song Ran, a woman who was still holding a child, so he comforted her: "Don't worry, we will prepare a comfortable room for you. You can take your child to rest first. When you need to be questioned, someone will notify you."

Despite experiencing this series of shocks, Song Ran still hugged her sister Song Li tightly. After a while, she fell into a deep sleep exhausted.

It was almost dawn when there was a knock on the door.

On the day of Qiqiao Festival, there were many people staying overnight, and Uncle Wang confirmed this after he woke up. Song Ran's suspicion was quickly cleared, and she was released after making a simple confession.

Zhang Gaopeng, who had not slept all night, received a report from his subordinates: "Boss, we have searched around the room, but we didn't find the 'snake' the suspect mentioned."

"You've worked hard, go down and have a rest." Zhang Gaopeng said tiredly, his eyes still fixed on the confession.

Of the three big men, one died on the spot, and the other two were already insane when they were taken back to the government office. The words "giant snake attacking people" frequently appeared in their confessions.

According to Mr. Wang's account after he woke up, the three men also came to stay overnight. After dark, the three men started fighting. They did not hurt anyone, but were tied up in the woodshed and knew nothing about what was happening outside.

Zhang Gaopeng frowned and murmured doubtfully, "Snake?"

"It's the cane!"
