Chapter 571: a suspect
” Don’t be wilfully blind Dong Dong,” said Aunt Yu as she looked at her in distaste. ” You naively believe that this is not related to Xiao Hua but why is it that these things started to happen only when he came to the village? Were we not fine when he wasn’t here even if the woman who is behind this is the same woman who did all that to the mers, it’s clear that she didn’t have the thoughts of making a move on the mers of the village, it’s only when Xiao Hua came? Like it or not that mer is the cause of everything that is happening in the village.”
When Aunt Yu said that everyone in the crowd turned to look at Yu Dong with accusatory gazes, they all glared at her as if it was her who was asking the murderer to go around killing mers.
” That’s right, it’s happening because of you!” The women who didn’t want to take the blame, they all pounced on Yu Dong when they realised that they could turn it around and then have Yu Dong take responsibility for everything. ” If you didn’t bring that mer to the village then nothing like this would have happened and we would still be living a perfect life!”
Yu Dong frowned as she looked at the women who still wished to dig their heads in the ground ignoring everything that was happening around them, to them the grief of losing their family mers was nothing. In fact for some the death of these mers was like good riddance, she looked at them before turning to village head Gu and said, ” See that? This is why I don’t want to care about them. They are all stupid.”
” Excuse me ?” The woman who just spoke looked rather offended but Yu Dong was done with them, she turned her head to the group of women and sarcastically replied, ” Oh you are excused, in fact, you are very much excused. You think this is fun, don’t you? Shirking responsibility like that, like I said the murderer has a pattern, she will attack someone real soon because the last time she killed someone was three months ago and surely now that the course is turning to be six months… she will come for someone real soon and then don’t come looking for me.”
With that, she turned to look at Li Li and said, ” Come on let’s go, we are going hunting.” She came here to hunt a boar and she wasn’t going to leave without hunting one.
It will be such a waste of energy.
When the women saw that Yu Dong was leaving they were startled but then some of them started shouting.
” What are you doing ?”
” How can you leave after attracting the wrath of the murderer——” the woman trailed off when Yu Dong turned her head to look at her, she uncomfortably shifted her feet and then turned her gaze from Yu Dong’s.
Yu Dong knew that her gaze was deadly and she made use of it to the best of her ability.
“Let’s be really honest here, the one who is attracting the wrath of the murderer is you all, you were scared to deal with the matter when it should have been dealt with, you hid it for so long and made sure that it was impossible for anyone to find that the mers of your family were missing by doing this you only egged the murderer to get bolder.”
She turned to look at the village head Gu and then went on, ” You all were aware of the matter, some of you might even have sensed the peculiarity of the case but you didn’t care about it. Neither of you took it seriously and dismissed it because the ones who were being attacked were mers… I understand your urge to ignore such a thing given that you were scared but now that I stand before you and watch you all shift the blame to me who never once treated this matter lightly is seriously a joke..you all are a joke …and not even a funny one.”
One of the women raised her hand. ” But we don’t know that the woman who is behind these killings is the same one.”
” You have to be a fool if you think they aren’t,” Yu Dong sniggered as she turned her attention to the woman who just spoke. ” Do you really think that there will be a stalker and a murderer focused on the mers at the same time?”
The woman all turned silent when Yu Dong saw that they were not speaking, she rolled her eyes and added, ” If you think that one stalking Xiao Hua is someone else, let’s wait and then we will see. I can protect him and I am sure that nothing will happen to him, what about you all though can you protect your mers?”
With that, she turned on her heels and then walked away, once she was out of earshot everyone else turned to look at Village head Gu who was having a headache.
” Village head look at Yu Dong”
” She is the one who..”
” How irresponsible of her—-”
” That’s enough, stop blaming her when you all are just as guilty,” Village head Gu cleared her throat and then stopped the complaints of the villagers. ” Anyway do you all have any suspicion, who can be the one behind this?”
A short silence hit the crowd as they all turned to look at each other and then one of the women turned to look at Village head Gu and said, ” Well… if we are talking about doing weird things, then I can only think of one woman…”
” That’s right she can be the one who is behind this after all she used to hurt the mers when she was young and even marked them after hitting them.”
” How can I forget about her,” the other woman’s eyes widened as they looked around the crowd and then exclaimed loudly, ” She isn’t even here, that Pei Yuyan.”
