"Kneel down!"
At the Jia family's residence in the middle court.
The moment the stick returned home from school, Qin Huiru picked up a feather duster and ordered the stick to kneel down.
The stick meme was scared silly and couldn't react for a moment.
"Qin Huairu, are you crazy?”Jia Zhang-shi, who was standing at the side, said angrily," You made him kneel down the moment he came back! Why are you so angry?"
"Mom, you don't know, but something bad almost happened to him this afternoon!”Qin Huairu said.
"Something happened? Who was in trouble? What happened to us?”Jia Zhangshi said indifferently.
Qin Huairu said," At noon, the stick sneaked into the canteen of the rolling mill to steal something, and it was a chicken. That was an important resource, and he was caught red-handed. That person insisted on sending him to the security department. Fortunately, I bumped into him and stopped him. I begged him for a long time before he agreed to let the stick go. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have come back now!”
"He was sent to the security department. The security department won't let him go. They'll hand him over to the police. The police will only send him to the juvenile detention center for discipline. What kind of place is the juvenile detention center? You really scared me to death today!"
"Damn it, kneel down for me, I'm going to beat you to death!”
He shouted at the stick again.
The stick looked at Grandma Jia Zhangshi and shivered.
"What is it? Stealing chicken in the cafeteria?" Jia Zhangshi was shocked and said," How could you do such a thing? How serious is that? Fortunately, you were stopped. Otherwise, you would be finished! You're the only one in our family. We hope that you'll have a bright future and bring honor to our ancestors! Nothing can happen to you!"
"What are you still standing there for? Kneel down and be punished!" Qin Huairu shouted.
"Kneel for what?" Jia Zhangshi said unhappily," The child is already so scared. He knows his mistake and won't do it again. Why did he steal the chicken? Wasn't it because he was greedy? During this period of time, there was nothing good to eat and there was almost no oil left. The child was still growing. How could he not want to eat better? In the end, it's not the child's fault. It's our problem as adults!”
Instead of reprimanding the child, she complained that she did not give him any good food.
Would he steal because he was greedy?
Qin Huairu fell silent.
She only thought that He Yuzhu had been suspended from his job as a chef recently, so he didn't bring any food from the kitchen for them. Therefore, he was greedy and couldn't control himself and went to the canteen to steal.
However, the matter was already in the past. He had exchanged it with a big secret of the First Uncle.
"Qin Huairu, what's going on with First Master today? I heard that he was taken away by the police in the workshop. You should have been there at that time, right?”
After that, when Qin Huiru was fetching water from the faucet in the courtyard, He Yuzhu suddenly walked back from the backyard and asked her.
"Yes, that was during working hours. Of course I was there.”Qin Huairu nodded, her expression a little unnatural.
"Then what's the situation?" He Yuzhu asked.”
Qin Huairu shook her head and said," I don't know what happened either. We were just doing something when the police suddenly appeared. They handcuffed an old man and took him away."”
She had expected Yi Zhonghai to be arrested. After all, she was the one who helped Li Jianguo to call the police.
However, she knew very well that she could not tell anyone about this, let alone He Yuzhu.
She knew about his relationship with the First Uncle. If she told him, he would definitely have an opinion.
Although he wasn't working in the kitchen for the time being and couldn't bring them leftovers, he was still their family's backer. If they needed his help, they just had to ask.
And if she were to get into a fight with him because of the First Uncle, her days in the future would not be good.
"It was Li Jianguo who reported it, wasn't it?”He Yuzhu asked.
Qin Huairu shook her head and replied,""I'm not sure about that. I only saw First Uncle being taken away. I don't know anything else.”
He Yuzhu said in a deep voice," First Uncle is in trouble this time. He's in big trouble. The police are accusing him of murder. Once he's convicted, he'll be paraded in public and shot. Every once in a while, those death row criminals will be paraded in Chaoyang Street and shot in public. Each one is worse than the last! I don't want the First Master to end up like that!”
"First Uncle is lucky and will be fine.”Qin Huairu said.
Now, she hoped that Yi Zhonghai would be sentenced to execution. That way, she would not have to worry about being hated by the other party.
She was basically certain that Yi Zhonghai had killed Li Jianguo's father because she believed her husband, Jia Dongxu, would not lie.
A life for a life, wasn't that justified?
The two of them chatted for a while before He Yuzhu turned around and walked away with a frown.
At the same time.
Yi Zhonghai had already been taken to the police station.
Not long after he arrived at the police station, he was brought into the interrogation room and began to be interrogated.
At this moment, his face was pale and his eyes were dull. He looked like he was still in shock.
"Yi Zhonghai, I think you should know why we accused you of murder. Do you want to confess yourself, or do we need to ask you?”
The police officer sitting opposite him said sternly,"You know our principles. If you confess, you will be lenient. If you resist, you will be severely punished. If you confess now, we will deal with you leniently.”
"Police officer, you want me to explain the problem. What should I explain?”Yi Zhonghai said.
"Are you playing dumb with us? How could he not know what crime he had committed?”the police officer said seriously.
" I'm not pretending." Yi Zhonghai shook his head." I really don't know." I've been working in the factory for so many years, and I've always been a decent person outside of work. I've always been law-abiding and have never done anything that goes against my conscience. It's even more impossible for me to kill someone like you said. Isn't that slandering me?”
His tone was agitated, and he looked very innocent and aggrieved.
"No one is slandering you." The police officer said," Would we arrest you if we didn't have any evidence? If we really wanted to arrest you, we should have arrested you when you were reported earlier! We didn't arrest you because we didn't investigate clearly at that time and didn't have any relevant evidence!”
"What evidence?" Yi Zhonghai said," Li Jianguo gave it to you, didn't he? "Don't listen to Li Jianguo. He's talking nonsense. His mother and son have always had a grudge against me. His father clearly had an accident, but he insisted that I was the one who killed him and wanted me to take responsibility. He's been pestering me for so many years! I couldn't help but be disturbed, but I didn't blame them. I knew that they were upset when their husbands and fathers died, because I pitied them!”
"What do you think?" The police officer said," Do you think we're stupid? Do you think we'll believe something without any evidence? That's evidence!"
"What evidence?" Yi Zhonghai asked.
The police officer replied,"Your disciple Jia Dongxu provided it. He's a witness!"”
" Jia Dongxu's testimony?!"
Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's soul almost dropped out of his body.
"Officer, are you joking?”He didn't know whether to laugh or cry." Dongxu has been dead for so many years. How can he testify? Did he return as a ghost? Isn't this just scaring people?"
"Who's joking with you?" The police officer said sternly," Can't a dead person testify? The dead could not speak, but it was not that they could not testify. Sometimes, the evidence given by the dead was more conclusive!”
"Yi Zhonghai, let me ask you. When Li Jianguo's father died, how many people were there?”
He then asked.
Yi Zhonghai replied," I was the only one besides him. He didn't operate properly and was pressed down by the machine. I tried my best to save him, but I couldn't. I watched him die! Not only was he my neighbor, but he was also my colleague. Seeing my old friend die in front of me, do you know how much my heart ached? Li Jianguo and his mother only cared about hating me, but they didn't know that I was suffering as much as they were!”
"You're lying!" the police officer said.
"I'm not lying. I'm telling the truth. I'm really sad. If you don't believe me, you can ask the people in the factory and the hospital. After he died, I was the one who helped him deal with his funeral.”Yi Zhonghai said.
The police officer said," I'm not referring to this when I said you were lying. I'm referring to the fact that you were the only one in the workshop when the accident happened. The truth is that you weren't the only one in the workshop. There was another person, and that person was your disciple, Jia Dongxu!"”
"Li Jianguo's father's death was not an accident. It wasn't that he was crushed by the machine due to improper operation, but that you had a dispute with him. In a fit of anger, you pushed down the machine and crushed him to death! You killed him! You're the murderer!"
"Jia Dongxu was there at the time. He witnessed the scene with his own eyes, but you were not afraid of him suing you because you knew that he would only listen to you and keep this secret for you. After you kill Li Jianguo's father, you make him climb out of the back window. This will create the illusion that you were the only one present. Otherwise, the police would still question Jia Dongxu. You're afraid that he won't be able to handle it and rat you out!”
"Is that the truth? Am I right?!”
His tone became heavier and heavier.
His expression became more and more serious.
"No, no, it's not like that!”Yi Zhonghai shook his head.
He panicked.
He had never been so flustered before.
"The truth is right in front of you, and you're still not going to admit it?!”the police officer said.
" I…I didn't do that," Yi Zhonghai said in a trembling voice." Why would I admit it?" I don't know where you heard that from, but it's all a lie. It's not true. I was the only one inside. Jia Dongxu and everyone else went outside and hadn't come back yet. When they came back together, something had already happened.”
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the security department. They confirmed it again and again that it was an accident!”
In the face of the police's questioning, he denied it.
He refused to admit that he killed Li Jianguo's father.
He was innocent.
The police officer said," Yi Zhonghai, you're here to quibble with us. It's okay if you don't admit it. We'll investigate it clearly!" Anyway, you can't get out now, because you can't prove that you have nothing to do with that matter! Come back to the rolling mill with us tomorrow to identify the crime scene and restore the true situation!”
Since Yi Zhonghai refused to admit it, they could only investigate.
To verify the information provided by Qin Huairu.
During this period, Yi Zhonghai would not be able to leave until the trial.
