Chapter 1693 Strange People
Although Xiao Li's body was no longer in the room.
The police went in and out so many times, the scene must have been cleaned up.
But, after all, it is a house where someone died.
Very unlucky.
It would be bad if the children went in and were infected with bad luck.
"Your parents will be mad."
Seeing that the child was unwilling, the old man threatened him.
The child did flinch.
However, even though he was scared, the child still stubbornly stayed where he was, with a look of stubbornness on his face.
"I'm looking for Fatty."
"Didn't you go into the house and look for it last time?"
The old man was puzzled.
"There is still one room left to be found."
The old man suddenly realized.
That room must be the one where Xiao Li is, right?
"But there's no one in the house."
The old man's words did not make the child give up.
"There was no one in the room last time, but an uncle opened the door."
The child's eyes sparkled, "Very impressive."
"I want to find that uncle."
"Grandma, do you know that uncle?"
"Can you tell me where to find that uncle?"
The old man knew that the child was talking about the locksmith Xiao Jin.
What a smart kid.
I still remember that it was Xiao Jin who opened the door from the outside last time.
However, the old man shook his head with regret, "Little girl, except for the police uncle, ordinary people can't just open other people's houses."
"Even if you find that uncle, he won't open the door for you."
"what."
The child was very disappointed, but soon said stubbornly, "I want to find Fatty."
"I will keep asking my uncle to open the door for me."
The old man stared at the child's big black eyes and was moved by the child's persistence.
"I told her that her uncle would be punished if he opened the door for her without her permission."
"She is making things too difficult for my uncle."
"Hearing what I said, the child hesitated."
"That's a good kid."
The old man smiled and said, "Then I told her I would help her watch it."
"When there's someone in the house opposite, I'll call her."
"The child is home."
The old man sighed, "I cheated that kid."
"You're doing this for her own good."
Meng Jixi corrected, "The child will know when he grows up."
"Yes."
The wrinkles at the corners of the old man's eyes relaxed, "When she grows up, she will understand what happened to Xiao Li."
“You will understand my approach.”
"Oops, that's getting off topic."
The old man patted his head gently.
I feel a little embarrassed.
She had said before that these young people didn't have time to chat with her, but she had talked so much without realizing it.
Moreover, the main topic has not yet been discussed.
"What I want to talk about is the child's parrot."
"Parrot?"
Meng Jixi was a little surprised.
Because of Li Wei's body, everyone subconsciously ignored the fact that the reason they found Li Wei's body was because of a little girl's obsession with her pet parrot.
The police are busy investigating Li Wei's case.
As for the missing parrot.
They all forgot.
"Ah."
The old man nodded.
"Xiao Li likes to eat birds like sparrows and blackbirds."
"You should know, right?"
Meng Jixi nodded, "The kid said Li Wei likes to eat birds."
"Oh, that kid knows that too."
The old woman suddenly realized, "I was wondering why the child was so sure that Xiao Li had stolen her parrot."
"In fact, I think it's very likely that the child's parrot was really stolen by Xiao Li."
"Why do you think so?"
Meng Jixi raised his eyebrows slightly, "Did you see anything?" "Yes."
The old man nodded, "I only remembered it later."
"One day I came back from shopping for groceries."
"When I was walking downstairs here, I heard a voice saying 'Hello, hello~'."
"I looked up."
“I saw the parrot on the balcony.”
"The parrot was not in a cage or chained."
"Flying in and out of the balcony and the house."
"I thought at the time, this family is really generous, they don't have to worry about the parrot flying away."
"But after watching for a while, I found that the parrot was just flying back and forth between the balcony and the house."
“It won’t fly off the balcony.”
“I just thought, what a clever parrot.”
“No wonder this family is so relieved.”
"I looked at it for a while, then I looked away and wanted to leave, and then-"
The old man frowned slightly, "I saw Xiao Li on the balcony opposite."
"He's looking at the parrot."
"this is nothing."
"I just stared at the parrot for a long time."
"But Xiao Li's expression is a little strange."
"I can't tell"
"It's just an uncomfortable expression."
Thinking of Xiao Li's look at that time, the old man was a little confused and his brows frowned even more tightly.
"Xiao Li noticed my gaze and looked down."
“He smiled at me.”
"Although Xiao Li is relatively quiet, he is a polite child."
The old man talked about his impression of Xiao Li, "I have always felt this way."
"Then Xiao Li turned around and walked into the house."
"I didn't think much about it."
"I just think I'm probably old and my eyesight isn't very good."
"Xiao Li and I are so far apart."
"So, that's why I felt that Xiao Li's expression was not right?"
"But now that I think about it, was Xiao Li planning to take the child's parrot at that time?"
The old man lowered his voice a little, "You didn't find the parrot in his house because... he had eaten the parrot."
"Have you eaten yet?"
Chi Xiu Ke murmured.
If the little kid knew about this, he would be very sad.
"Yes, I have eaten it."
The old man shook his head and said, "You are talking about this person."
“Not a bad job.”
"It's not a big deal."
“I really want to eat it”
"Can't you just buy it yourself?"
"Why steal someone else's child's parrot?"
"That child is so sad."
"Such a clever parrot."
"That child loves her parrot"
"What a strange person."
Everyone was silent.
The answer to this question lies in asking myself.
But-
"But now that Xiao Li is dead, we have no way to ask him."
The old man said with some regret, "If I had known, I would have asked him why when I first found out that he liked to eat birds."
“But I felt that the two were unfamiliar with each other.”
"Besides, people can eat whatever they like. Why should an old woman like me care so much?"
"Hey~"
The old man sighed.
Then he put the regret behind him.
What has happened cannot be changed.
What is she still brooding about?
"What I said are just my guesses."
The old man smiled slightly, "Actually, isn't it a bit bad to say these things after someone dies?"
"I was so hesitant just now because, on the one hand, I felt that this matter had nothing to do with the case you were investigating."
"On the one hand, it also feels like I'm speaking ill of a dead person."
"Do not."
Meng Jixi shook his head, "Old man, you are just stating the facts you know."
