"I'll ask one more time, who stole the sheep? If no one confesses, I'm going to search every household. The sheep was lost yesterday, and even if you've destroyed the evidence by now, you'll definitely still smell like sheep. You might not notice it, but you can't fool it. If I find out who stole the sheep, I believe you all know the consequences. So, does anyone have something to say now?" Xing Zhonghua said while scanning every person present with his eyes.
Suddenly, a boy's voice emerged from the crowd, "I know..."
Xing Zhonghua looked over with wide eyes, "Who, who just spoke, stand out."
The commune members made way, "Heh, that kid was just babbling nonsense just now." Ergouzi's dad, shivering, covered Ergouzi's mouth to keep him from speaking.
"Let go of your hand. I'll know if he's babbling nonsense once I ask him," Xing Zhonghua gestured for him to let go.
In front of so many people, Ergouzi's dad didn't dare to disobey and reluctantly removed his hand.
