When Xiao Zongyao rushed back to the village, he met the villagers to deliver a funeral to the white tiger.
"Why don't you have anyone?"
"I heard that I was drunk, lying on the haystack smoking, and after falling asleep, I burned myself to death."
After listening to the villagers' explanations, Xiao Zongyao fell into contemplation.
This disrupted his plans, and he had confessed to killing the White Tiger by mistake.
Three days ago, on the night, Wang Zongyao and his girlfriend Huang Huan secretly met in the grove.
Who knew that Huang Huan told him that she was pregnant, which made Xiao Zongyao panic.
Xiao Zongyao's father, Xiao Weiguo, was the village chief and a very strong man.
He had previously messed up Xiao Zongyao's work, and then forcibly arranged an iron rice bowl for his son.
In his words, "I helped him make a wise choice."
Because of this incident, Xiao Zongyao fell out with his father and has not spoken since.
This time back in the village, Xiao Zongyao was called back by Huang Huan.
But during the day his mother told him that his father was going to arrange a family affair for him, the girl in the city.
Itself is very stiff because of the work of things, if you quarrel again on the matter of blind date, I am afraid that the father and son will really break off the relationship.
Moreover, since going to the city, Xiao Zongyao's vision has become wider, which makes him hesitate to decide whether he really wants to marry Huang Huan.
Therefore, after Xiao Zongyao learned that Huang Huan was pregnant, he was suddenly confused.
Just as the two were arguing, the second-rate white tiger in the village suddenly appeared.
On the grounds that the village chief's son was playing with the feelings of Huanghua's eldest daughter, he blackmailed Xiao Zongyao into taking out a sealing fee of 10,000 yuan.
Xiao Zongyao thought to himself, "Aren't you extortion?" And where do I have so much money for you?
Seeing that he had no intention of giving money, the White Tiger turned and left.
Xiao Zongyao hurriedly chased after him.
Between the two pushing and shoving, the white tiger was pushed down and fell to his death.
Looking at the white tiger lying motionless on the ground, Xiao Zongyao and Huang Huan were frightened into six gods and no master.
I had to go back to the city and make plans.
After a night of consideration, Xiao Zongyao decided to take Huang Huan with him.
So he borrowed some money from a friend and bought a ticket to Guangzhou.
But Huang Huan was reluctant to leave.
On the one hand, the pregnancy thing is fake, she just wants to use this matter to force Xiao Zongyao to marry her.
On the other hand, she didn't want to live in hiding every day.
"You don't have to worry about me, you should think about it for your dad."
It turned out that in order to express his dissatisfaction, Xiao Zongyao stole one of his father's most cherished medals.
But on the night of the accident, the medal was gone.
Xiao Zongyao suspected that he had been left at the scene by himself.
After another sleepless night, Xiao Zongyao decided to go back and turn himself in.
But this was something he intended to carry alone.
He hoped that Huang Huan could give birth to the child, so that it was also an account for his father.
Back in the village, Xiao Zongyao saw the scene of the villagers sending a funeral to the white tiger.
"What the hell is going on?"
Xiao Zongyao was puzzled.
He returned home with this mixed feeling, but his mother told him another thing that shocked him—
Father went to town to resign.
At the end of the movie, Xiao Weiguo and Xiao Zongyao stand in front of the abandoned white tiger coffin, looking at each other without words.
Huang Huan in the distance took the missing medal from his pocket and buried it in the rocks.
Then a few subtitles set up for review slowly appeared on the screen -
The next day, Xiao Weiguo took his son to the public security bureau to turn himself in and truthfully told the public security cadres and policemen about everything that had happened in these days. Based on what they learned, the police arrested other relevant suspects.
Through clever editing techniques, "Labyrinth of Hearts" tells the story of human nature involved in the death of the White Tiger in four days and three nights.
The film does not have a grand world view, no dazzling special effects, and no well-known movie star blessing.
The only thing that stands out is telling a good story.
Although the purpose of the subtitles at the end of the movie is very clear, some of the information is not clear.
For example, who exactly does "arrest other relevant suspects" refer to?
In the movie, a total of two people died unexpectedly, White Tiger and Chen Zili.
The people associated with the death of the White Tiger were Xiao Zongyao, Huang Huan, Xiao Weiguo, the White Tiger himself, and those who borrowed usurious loans.
Xiao Zongyao and Huang Huan were the direct causes.
At that time, the White Tiger pushed down Huang Huan, and Xiao Zongyao pushed down the White Tiger in a hurry, which led to the accidental death of the White Tiger.
Although Huang Huan did not move, she had the behavior of shielding and concealing behind her.
Xiao Weiguo, who saw the White Tiger being thrown to death, deliberately set fire to the White Tiger's body in order to hide it for his son.
Whether it was the white tiger really fell to his death and destroyed the body, or the white tiger did not fall to his death and was actually burned to death, Xiao Weiguo could not get rid of it.
But here we mainly consider "other relevant suspects".
The White Tiger himself was ill, which was hinted at by a sudden nosebleed while he was borrowing from a loan shark.
If it was Xiao Zongyao's push that caused him to fall to his death, it was also related to the White Tiger's own physique.
It's just that people are dead, and they can't always carry the pot for themselves, right?
A group of people who borrowed usurious loans used violent collection, and this kind of lending behavior itself was illegal.
If you only analyze the people associated with the death of the White Tiger, they are not directly related.
As for chen zili falling off a cliff, only one person saw this.
But Xiao Zongyao and Xiao Weiguo are not aware, so the "relevant suspects" should not include this side.
What's more, Chen Zili fell off a cliff and was not directly related to others.
On the whole, this relevant suspect can only be Huang Huan.
It was just like this that Xiao Zongyao wanted to carry the crime alone.
It also made Huang Huan's concealment of the truth about the fake pregnancy meaningless.
Of course, it can be forcibly explained.
Later, Xiao Zongyao learned the news of Huang Huan's fake pregnancy, and he was angry but confessed her.
After all, the woman with the heart ended up with a bamboo basket to hit the water.
