    The police officer licked his pen and started again: "It makes sense, Ye Fan. I understand what you mean, it's a very difficult situation. Okay, now - it's just a routine matter, Ye Fan, you know, we have to find out.  The itinerary of everyone who passed by on the coast road that day. You don't need to be nervous or afraid." The ink of the pen happened to be insoluble, leaving a very bad question in his mouth.  He stuck out a pink tongue from the middle of his lips stained with purple ink. It looked like a big dog chewing bones deliciously. This directly hit Ye Fan's suspicious imagination, "Ye Fan, two  Where were you at one o'clock?"

    Ye Fan¡¯s jaw almost dropped.

    "I-I-I-" he trilled.

    A nurse came in and interrupted their conversation.

    "Mr. Police, I hope you won't stay here too long." She said unhappily, "I can't let my patient be in a bad mood. Take a sip of this, No. 22, and you must not get excited again.  "

    "It doesn't matter," Ye Fan took a sip, and his pale face regained color, "Actually, I can really tell you my exact position at two o'clock. Fortunately, it should be that time. Fortunately, I was then  At the level.¡±

    "Oh," said the police officer, "that's a very satisfactory answer."

    "Yes, I can prove it. You see, I came from the village and bought some medicine there, and the pharmacist must have remembered me. I have very sensitive skin, and because of this we had a few chats. I don't know what the store was.  Where, but you can look for it. No, I don't know exactly when that happened. Then I walked to the checkpoint. It was four kilometers in total, and I had to walk for about a little over an hour, you know, so I had to  It started from the village around one o¡¯clock.¡±

    ¡°Where did you stay the night before?¡±

    ¡°At the Hotel House in the Village. You can find my name on the list there.¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s late to leave there, isn¡¯t it?¡±

    "Yeah, but I didn't sleep well that night. I was so hot and sunburned, you know, it really killed me. Some people get sunburned easily. I was in a hurry when I came out,  It's so painful. As you already know, my skin is very sensitive and the sun has been really bad this past week. I thought it would get better, but I didn't expect it to get hotter and hotter, and shaving gives me a headache, a real headache. So.  I stayed in bed until ten o'clock, then had a late breakfast around eleven o'clock, and got to the checkpoint at about two o'clock. I knew it was two o'clock because I asked someone for the time."

    "Is it true, Mark? This is really lucky. We should be able to check this."

    "Oh, yes. You should be able to find him easily. He doesn't live in the village, but outside the village. He is a man camping."

    The officer almost jumped.  He was an unmarried and energetic young man. At this time, he almost worshiped Xia Xiang.  He worshiped his miraculous powers of prediction.  Xia thought the gold would be found on the body, but, ha!  That's it.  He said that Jiang Tiansheng would come up with an alibi at two o'clock. Now the alibi came to the door automatically, and the time matched as closely as the relationship between moonlight and tide.  But Xia wanted to say that this new alibi would look airtight.  The police officer was determined to bring it down.

    He asked curiously why Ye Fan would ask a stranger for the time instead of asking in the village.

    "I didn't think to ask when I was in the village. I didn't stop there at all. After walking through the village, I started to think about my lunch. I looked at my watch about a kilometer ago and it was twenty-five minutes to go.  At two o'clock, I thought I should go to the beach to eat. But when I looked at the watch again, it was still twenty-five minutes to two o'clock, and then I realized that the watch had stopped, and it must have passed that time. I saw a path leading down  When I got to the beach, I turned to this path. There was a very open place at the bottom of the path. There were motorcycles and a small tent on the ground. There was a man doing something next to the car. I waved to him and asked him the time.  . The man was tall, with black hair, a red face, and wore black glasses. He told me that it was five minutes to two o'clock. I adjusted my watch, wound it up, and then thanked him and said that this camp  What a nice place. He suddenly became very rude. I thought maybe it was because his car broke down that he was so irritable, so I asked him - very politely - if something was wrong with the car.  That's it. I don't know why he thought I was insulting him, but he felt that way at the time. I told her I was just asking out of politeness and wanted to know if I could help, and then he didn't  I know what I yelled, and then-" Ye Fan hesitated for a while and blushed.

    "What?" the police officer said.

    ??"He - it's really embarrassing to say that, he lost his mind and started attacking me." Ye Fan said.

    "Oh! What did he do?"

    "He - kicked me," Ye Fan said, his voice suddenly turned into a scream, "Kicked me - how should I say, kicked my ass."

    ¡°So that¡¯s it!¡±

    "Yes, he did kick it. Of course, I didn't retaliate against him. That wouldn't have been very - appropriate. I just walked away and told him that I hoped he would feel ashamed when he thought about it. He still ran after me. I think most of all  I didn¡¯t want to deal with this kind of person anymore, so I left and had lunch on the beach.¡±

    ¡°On the beach?¡±

    "Yeah. He was - I mean, when he kicked me, I was heading towards the ocean - and I wanted to go back and pass this disgusting guy. I looked at the map and it was along the beach from the checkpoint  It kept going somewhere else, so I thought it would be best to go this way.¡±

    "I see. So you had lunch on the beach. Where? How long were you there?"

    "I stopped about fifty meters away from the path. I hoped that the man could see me and see that I was not intimidated by him, so I chose a place where he could see me and sit down.  Come down and have lunch.¡±

    The police officer realized that the kick could not be very hard at that moment, and Ye Fan could still sit.

    ¡°I think I was there for about forty-five minutes.¡±

    "Who did you see passing by the beach during that time?" the police officer asked pointedly.

    "Who passed by? Why? No one."

    "No people, no women or children? No boats? No horses? Nothing?"

    "Nothing. The beach was deserted, and even the savage was gone. He should have left before I left. You know, I was keeping an eye on him to see if he would do anything else.  .¡±

    The police officer bit his lip.

    "What was he doing during that time? Repairing cars?"

    "No. He seemed to finish repairing it quickly, as if he was setting something on the fire. I guess he was cooking. Then he walked off onto the path."

    The police officer thought for a while.

    "Then what did you do?"

    "I walked slowly along the beach until I saw a path leading from the beach to a stone wall. When I came out of the path, there were some houses opposite. I got on the road there, walked in the other direction, and then  That¡¯s when I met the detective.¡±

    "Did you see the man wearing black glasses again that night?"

    "Yes. When I came back with the detective, he was right next to the path. He stopped to talk to him unnecessarily, which made me angry. I ignored them and kept walking because I didn't want to be talked to by him again.  Violent abuse."

    "I understand, Ye Fan. Everything has been explained clearly. Now I want to ask you a very important question. When you look at your watch again, does your watch go faster or slower?"

    ¡°I compared it with the watch at Guanquan Garage Repair Shop, and it¡¯s exactly half past five.¡±

    "You haven't dialed it in the middle?"

    "No, why do you need to dial?"

    The police officer looked at Ye Fan firmly, slammed his notebook shut, stretched his chin over, and said with some intimidation:

    "Now, listen up, Ye Fan, this is about a murder. We know that someone must have passed by the beach between two o'clock and three o'clock. Wouldn't it be better to tell us the truth?"

    Ye Fan¡¯s eyes showed fear.

    "I don't¡ªI don't¡ª" he said weakly.  His hands gripped the sheets and he passed out.  The nurses began to fuss and shooed the officer away from the bedside.
