908 Digression (1/2)
Although all the words said were polite words, their real thoughts were clear in their hearts.
After coming out of the big wooden house, Lu Xiufeng subconsciously took out a cigarette.
After he lit one, he handed it to Miao Qingfeng beside him. ”Hmm, do you want one?”
”Thank you, but I don't smoke,” Miao Qingfeng said with a smile.
”Captain Yang, where shall we start?”
”Let's go to Miao Qingshan's house to take a look first.”
”Alright,” Miao Qingfeng said.
He led the two men to Miao Qingshan's house.
It was the same as it had been last time. Yang Guanfeng and Lu Xiufeng wandered around and looked carefully in the room several times to ensure there was nothing different.
Everything in the room had been thoroughly searched. Yang Guanfeng found signs that even hidden places had been searched well.
”Is there no trace of him?” Yang Guanfeng asked.
”No, the stockade has not given up the search for him since you left, but we have not found anything,” Miao Qingfeng said. ”After all, the forest is quite big.”
”Yes.”
Lu Xiufeng, with a cigarette in his mouth, stared at the bottles and pots. He was just about to reach out for them when he was stopped by Miao Qingfeng.
”Captain Lu, be careful,” he said. ”Some of those things are poisonous. If you want to see them, please tell me. I will open them for you.”
”Poisonous? Will it kill anyone?” Lu Xiufeng hurriedly withdrew his hand in fear.
”Ah, it would not be that serious, but it would cause much pain,” Miao Qingfeng said with a smile.
”Which one do you want to see?”
”Let's see them one by one, starting from this side,” Lu Xiufeng said as he pointed.
”Isn't it too dangerous to put these things here? What if someone came in and accidentally touched them?”
”First of all, the people in our stockade would not enter the yard without the permission of the owner, let alone the house, even if the gate was open,” Miao Qingfeng said. ”In the past 100 years, there have been only a few accidents. Second, these poisons are very dangerous to you, but they would only cause minimal problems for the people in the stockade. Even if they were accidentally infected by it, there would be ways to eliminate them. At the very worst, they would just suffer a little pain and that's all.”
”Oh, doors are not closed at night, and fallen or lost objects are not picked up off the street. Is the public security environment so good?”
”It's not bad because we are all of the same clan.”
”What's the situation with Miao Qingshan?”
Miao Qingfeng was stunned by the question. He was suddenly at a loss of what to say.
Miao Qingfeng thought, This man doesn't know how to speak. I really just want to kill him!
”When the forest is big, there will always be a few crooked-necked trees.”
”Umm, he just speaks like that,” Yang Guanfeng hastily explained. ”Don't take it to heart.”
”It's alright.” Miao Qingfeng smiled to show that he did not care.
”Ah, how old is that Comrade Miao Qingshan this year?”
”34.”
”Is he married?” Lu Xiufeng asked.
”Not yet.”
”Why?”
”Well, I don't know the specific reasons as to why he has not married,” Miao Qingfeng said with a smile. Why would he care about these kinds of things in his daily life?
”Are there many unmarried people of a higher age in the village?” Lu Xiufeng asked.
Miao Qingfeng could not help but grumble to himself. What are all these unrelated questions? Does it have anything to do with the case?
”Well, there shouldn't be a lot. I don't really care about these kinds of things normally.”
”How old are you? Have you reached 30?”
”29.”
”Are you married?”
”Not yet.”
”Aren't your parents worried or anxious? Shouldn't you hurry up?” Lu Xiufeng then asked.
Yang Guanfeng noticed some changes on Miao Qingfeng's face when he had heard the questions.
He immediately slapped Lu Xiufeng. ”Tut, what's wrong with you?”
