Chapter 602 Not Foolish

The boatman turned and ran to the side. He picked up an axe and asked, “How did you know that?”

“It’s simple. Your boat was originally rowing in the middle of the water. But you rowed by the bank when you got near us. You must have done it on purpose. You knew we had a car accident here, as someone must have described the exact location of our accident to you. You were actually there to check whether we were dead,” Nan Chen said.

“That’s right. Our location at that time could not be easily seen, but you still found us immediately. It shows that you were looking for someone, and you were looking for us,” Ning Ran chimed in.

Nan Chen was slightly surprised. He thought Ning Ran wasn’t too foolish since she had thought of this too.

“You two are suspicious of me even after I saved you?” the boatman asked.

“Put down the axe. My leg is injured now. So even without it, we can’t do anything to you. Relax.” Nan Chen sounded relatively calm.

“I’m just someone who farms fish. You two are overthinking it,” the boatman denied.

“Stop denying it. You were acting strangely the moment you approached us. You didn’t ask where we came from or where we were going. Also, you didn’t ask us how we got into an accident. It shows that you already know all of this. Then, you said your boat could only fit another person, or it would exceed the weight limit. But that was a lie. All you did was dispose of a small bag for the both of us to get on the boat. Moreover, judging by the water level, the boat could contain two more people without a problem. And you said you ate in town. During that time, you smelled of fresh wine and hotpot with fish, so you must have eaten within an hour of meeting us. You said the road to town is under construction and would take at least three to four hours to get there. But if you had eaten within an hour of meeting us, then you must have eaten at your house and not in town. Besides, you farm fish yourself, so why would you travel to town to eat fish? It would be more plausible for you to serve guests at your house fish since you have many of them at home. You’ve been lying all the while, no? Why would you lie if you are innocent then?” Nan Chen said.

The boatman opened his mouth but could not utter any words.

On the other hand, Ning Ran was stunned. How did Nan Chen know he had eaten within an hour and what he ate?

“How did you know I had fish? Did you think I must have eaten it since I farm them? And how did you know I ate within an hour?” The boatman found it hard to believe.

“You don’t need to know how I found out. Regardless, I am right, aren’t I?” Nan Chen asked.

The boatman did not utter any words. His silence was tacit confirmation that Nan Chen was right.
