Gu Zi chuckled, revealing a secret unknown to the others. “You see, Big Yellow is a military dog that Su Shen raised during his tin the army. He’s received professional training and his search and detection skills are quite formidable.
“Therefore, if we bring Big Yellow over to sniff the vomit and then give him the command to search, he should be able to track down the culprit. And there’s no need to worry about him biting the culprit. He’s a well-trained military dog.”
Upon hearing this, Su Ming thought it was indeed a good idea, and the others agreed. Only Ah Zhuang’s wife seemed uneasy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAh Zhuang himself, however, was far from comfortable. His face turned pale as he listened. He was aware of the capabilities of military dogs. They could track by scent, just as Gu Zi had said. The precision was uncanny, and he knew he couldn’t let them use this method.
Stepping forward, Ah Zhuang intercepted Su Ming, instinctively lowering his gaze to hide his own eyes. He felt like throwing in the towel, but he knew he couldn’t. He had already denied any involvement, and unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not admit to anything.
“It won’t work,” he protested. “Animals are animals, no matter how well trained. What if it bites someone? I can’t accept this method.”
Ah Zhuang’s mother, feeling for her son, pleaded with Su Shen, “I don’t agree either. What if it turns out not to be my son, and he gets bitten? Wouldn’t that be a miscarriage of justice?”
Ah Zhuang’s wife merely nodded in agreement, unable to articulate her thoughts. Ah Zhuang frowned, finding her lack of words infuriating.
Su Shen didn’t know what Gu Zi planned to do next, but if she said she had a method, then there must be more than one. To alleviate Ah Zhuang’s defensiveness, he reassured, “Big Yellow won’t bite anyone. But it’s understandable that Ah Zhuang and his family are scared. Do we have any other methods?”
Gu Zi rubbed her forehead, a hint of amusement in her eyes. Su Shen was quite the actor.
After a moment, she propped up her head and suggested, “There’s a simpler method. Let’s call the police now and let them decide. I heard from Captain He that they’ve introduced a new detection technology from abroad this year. It can detect fingerprints left by the culprit, which could help us find them. I’m quite curious about it.
“Moreover, I have a way to immediately clear Ah Zhuang of suspicion. Could the village head please call the police? Everyone else, cwithto Aunt Yang’s front door to collect samples of the vomit. We’ll take them to the city for testing, and also collect sof Ah Zhuang’s saliva for testing. We might not find the culprit, but we can certainly clear Ah Zhuang’s name.”
As Gu Zi spoke, Su Shen could discern her strategy clearly. She intended to corner Ah Zhuang into admitting his wrongdoings, hoping to frighten him into confession.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven if Ah Zhuang adamantly denied his guilt, the truth would be revealed once the samples were tested. Ah Zhuang, despite his minor cunning, was likely unwilling to escalate the situation to the point of involving the police.
Su Shen’s handsbrow furrowed, a plan forming in his mind. He responded in a calm and steady voice, “Your method is excellent, but if the police get involved, a few months in jail may be unavoidable. Ah Zhuang, if you’re innocent, you have nothing to fear. However, if you’ve made a mistake in a moment of weakness, it’s not too late to admit it. At most, you’ll have to pay scompensation and apologize. The police station is not a place for games.”
Su Shen fixed his gaze on Ah Zhuang, who was visibly shaken. He hadn’t expected Gu Zi to be so decisive. What was he to do now? Surely, he couldn’t wait for them to call the police?
At that moment, the village chief picked up the phone on the table, ready to dial. Ah Zhuang, in a sudden burst of panic, stepped forward to stop the call. “Don’t call the police,” he admitted, “I’ll pay the compensation.”
Upon hearing his confession, both Gu Zi and Su Shen’s expressions cooled. As expected, he couldn’t handle the pressure.
Su Ming also put down the phone, his brow furrowed as he looked at Ah Zhuang. Mother Lin and Aunt Yang finally exhaled in relief; he had finally admitted his guilt!
As for Ah Zhuang’s wife, she seemed to quietly breathe a sigh of relief. Ah Zhuang’s mother, however, was completely taken aback. What was happening?
As Ah Zhuang’s mother gradually comprehended the situation, her face fell into disappointment. She called out to her son by his childhood name, “Zhuang Zhuang, what are you saying? Did you really do this? Why would you do such a thing? How could you bully people like this?”
Ah Zhuang felt a burning sensation on his face. He turned to his wife and said, “Take Mother hfirst. Why is she causing a scene here? Mother, you go hfirst. I’ll explain everything to you when I get back.”
With that, Ah Zhuang asked his wife to take his mother away, his face wearing an expression of guilt.
