Chapter 105: The Object of Suspicion
"Shut up!" Wang Yongzhu directly blocked Xiao Tiantian’s boasting, and when she looked at Song Chongjin again, there was finally something different.
She hadn’t expected Song Chongjin to have such a skill; she had underestimated him. But for a man from a mountain village, with a mother so timid, was this really a skill taught by an old hunter from the mountains?
Wang Yongzhu marked Song Chongjin for special attention. No matter what might happen in the future, at least for now, she couldn’t see through him.
However, this wasn’t the time to be concerned about that. She composed herself, suppressing her shock, and tried to analyze the situation: "So, we’re looking for a young man, slender, weak, naturally with six toes! If he’s from our village and is around my age, there are dozens of boys, most of them quite lean, but they usually have to do field work, so they should have some strength. Excluding those who work the fields, there aren’t many left, so it must be—"
Song Chongjin made eye contact with her: "Someone who attends private school!"
After saying that, Song Chongjin glanced at the faded ink stain on the shovel handle.
For some reason, Wang Yongzhu’s mind instantly thought of someone.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible. She collected herself hastily: "Brother Song, I have a suspect in mind, but I’m not certain yet. I don’t know if he has six toes. I must rush to the town immediately to ask my mother; she should know. No, I shouldn’t go ask my mother. I need to find Jinhua—"
With that, she headed down the mountain, and Song Chongjin followed behind, his gaze shifting, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something, then he held back.
The anxious Wang Yongzhu sped up her descent. Upon reaching the village, people saw the two of them, one after the other, with Wang Yongzhu’s clothes looking as if they had been rolled on the ground.
Some people looked at the pair with a hint of insinuation in their eyes.
