Chen Hai suddenly raised his head, but when he met those emotionless eyes, his body trembled slightly, and he swallowed back the words he was about to say.
"…I won't play tricks, please trust me."
Six kilometers from Big Sea Village, there's another small, secluded village called Changning Village. Like Big Sea Village, Changning Village is mostly populated by elderly people and children left behind, as almost all the young people have gone out to work and earn money. So, once night falls, you rarely see anyone out walking around the village. As long as there's no major commotion, neighbors several dozen meters away would hardly notice anything.
Chen Hai had an uncle in Changning Village, who had passed away years ago, leaving behind a few tiled houses and a courtyard. Since his uncle didn't have any children, Chen Hai, being the closest blood relative, was implicitly regarded by the villagers as the heir to the property.
