Chapter 40 Ruffian (5) (1/2)
The police officers who came out to perform the task this time are basically young men with a strong sense of justice. There are quite a lot of people in their county, but there are also a lot of mixed dragons and snakes. In addition, the county is poor, so the public security bureau naturally deploys It's not much higher, there are fewer people and more space, and I'm afraid that I might accidentally catch someone who is difficult to maintain when I'm on duty, and I'll catch a younger one, so I can't say I'm helpless.
Originally, this time the superiors issued a notice that was rare and forceful, saying directly and clearly that no one would give anyone any face, and they would arrest people directly. If they were arrested, they would be convicted and sentenced to y-i l0ng.
But no one is given face, including these simple people?
The young police officer began to wonder if he had arrested the wrong person, but when he looked back, he saw that the people he had arrested were indeed a gangster group.
They refused to let him go, and the people refused to give way. In the end, the older police officers decided not to act rashly. After all, the purpose of their duty was to catch bad guys, not against the people.
Now is a special period. Don't arrest the wrong person and report him to the authorities. By then, you won't be able to keep your iron job.
The older police officer gave a few instructions and ran to find the leader.
When the leader came over, he was a little dazed when he saw this scene. He turned his head and asked his subordinates, "Aren't you just arresting people for the mission? Why are the villagers so excited?"
"Really not!"
The older police officer himself was also very excited, "Isn't it that the county next door is also conducting arrest operations? The arrested gangster said that he would be punished and meritorious service. How many small groups and activity routes are there in our county? Everyone told them, and the comrades below made inquiries and confirmed that they were indeed collecting people's money before bringing them here."
He didn't speak loudly, but the vegetable farmers who were nearby heard it clearly, and they became anxious when they heard it: "Leader! How can you believe the words of those hooligans in the next county!! They rely on their large number of people , he used to come here to harass us, and he also destroyed the sweet potato field of our six sons’ home, which made his father in debt and sick, and he is still lying in bed!”
The villagers on the side who did not hear these words suddenly became excited, and a group of people rushed forward to argue.
"That's right!! They are so evil! Not only did they bully the people in their county, but they even came to our county to cause trouble. If this group of young men hadn't taken action, how much money would we have lost! !”
"We give money voluntarily!! These young men help us fight off the hooligans. In order to help us, they patrol the streets one by one and don't even have food to eat. We don't give money just to let them eat. Serve the meal!”
"Comrade Public Security, you are all comrades of the country, you can't listen to those villains!"
If a small group of people were complaining, the police might think that their accomplices were helping to commit perjury, but now almost half of the street was here, and the excitement and anger on their faces didn't look like they were faking it. Now even the leaders They all somewhat believed that the gangsters were driven away with a grudge, and they took this opportunity to put these people in jail.
He stretched out his hand and tried to comfort the villagers in front of him, "Don't worry, don't panic. We just asked them to go back with us to check. We are just checking. If there is no problem, we will definitely release them."
"You want to take it back to the bureau??"
It's okay if he didn't say this, but when he did, the villagers suddenly became more anxious.
"They are all good guys, we can't take them back!"
"When my dad was young, he kissed my mom on the street. At that time, he said he would take her to the police station for investigation, but he was immediately locked up!"
"No, you can't take them away, they are all good people..."
The crowd became more and more agitated and moved towards the police officers with angry expressions on their faces. Surrounded by so many people, the police officers became nervous and quickly stretched out their hands, "Back off!! Back off!!"
"Everyone, please stop getting excited and back off!!"
No one listened to what they said, and at this time, an older-looking young man in the small group who had been silent became anxious.
He was a bit frustrated, old-fashioned and a gangster, so no girl could ever like him. As a result, after listening to Lin Shiheng's words and starting to help everywhere, he felt the joy of helping others and getting grateful looks and words of praise.
Even if the police didn't come, he planned to remain a good person forever. It would take less than a month to remain a good person, but it happened that he found his partner in this month.
She is a young |widow|, older than him, but they are still about the same age when facing each other. Her experience is similar to that of Mrs. Lin. After her husband died young, the family was divided directly by her in-laws, who had many sons, and she was left alone. She lives with her daughter. Since she has no skills, she can only grow vegetables to sell. Normally, the folks in the village will help her even if they see that she is not easy. This young man has been keen on helping others push carts since he started doing good things. The young widow pushed her a few times, and after going back and forth, the two of them got started.
They were all not in very good condition, and they both longed to have a family. They were afraid that something might change again after they got together, so they simply got engaged at lightning speed, and their children even changed their name to daddy.
It is difficult for most people to get close to children who are not related by blood. This young man is different. He has a good attitude. Lin Shiheng said a few words, "I really envy you, you have your own daughter so quickly." "My little cotton-padded jacket, will I be able to enjoy happiness in the future" and so on. The more I look at this girl I picked up for free, the more I feel like it. Since I have completely settled on it, I take my girl with me every time I go out to do things. When the two get along, they look like their biological children. Father and daughter are no different.
He loved his daughter from the bottom of his heart, and the child also liked this father who loved him so much, so when his mother brought him here, he cried and called him daddy, and stopped him from letting the police leave.
Now everyone rushed up, and it was a mess. She was small. Although her mother was holding her hand, she was swaying and could not stand steadily. She was also squeezed here and there. It made her father anxious. Almost jumping out.
He who had been silent all this time couldn't help but stretched out his hand to stop, "Everyone, please stop crowding and don't go forward!!"
Don't squeeze my daughter! !
In the eyes of the police, this person who was trying to stop someone was someone who had been compliant and cooperative since being arrested and was now helping to calm the crowd.
They recalled in their minds what they heard about the arrests in the neighboring county. The gangsters were running around and some even assaulted the police. Looking at the group of people they arrested, everyone was extremely cooperative, and they didn't even When people curse, let them take you away.
With such a high level of consciousness, he doesn't look like a hooligan.
If they knew what these police officers thought, these people would have laughed out loud.
They didn't scold because they already knew through Lin Shiheng that there was a big move from above, and they all guessed the result, so they could naturally accept it calmly.
Anyway, we are all locals. What if they are caught swearing and get retaliated against? Even if they try to run two legs, they can’t outrun the police driving a police car. They might as well follow them honestly. Anyway, their efforts during this period will not be in vain. Yes, even if it doesn't work, Brother Shi has not been caught, he will definitely find a way to rescue them.
The police officers who were completely unaware of the truth looked hesitant. Faced with this beautiful misunderstanding, they were not as excited as they were at the beginning and looked at the leaders one after another.
The leader was obviously also having a headache. He looked at the people who stood still and looked at him with angry eyes because they were stopped by "one of their own", and then looked at the gangster group who were in tatters and didn't look like bad people.
Gritting his teeth, he stretched out his hand to signal "let him go."
Seeing the surprise and excitement on the faces of the villagers who thought they were oppressed by them, he became more certain of his previous thoughts.
It must be a mistake.
It was a mistake to arrest someone wrong. They made this trip specially and felt sorry for themselves. The leader thought for a while, turned to the gangster group and warned them in a friendly tone, "This time we did not investigate clearly and wronged a good person." , but now the country is vigorously cracking down on gangsters. Although your original intention of collecting money to do things for the villagers is good, this kind of behavior still makes people think of hooligans. Don't do this kind of behavior next time. If someone comes to make trouble in our county again, you can control the situation first, and then ask people to go to the public security bureau to ask us to deal with it, so that this kind of misunderstanding will not happen again. "
A group of people who just showed joy on their faces were at a loss. If they don't charge money, how will they survive?
But the current situation is special. We can't say to the police who just arrested them, "No, we still need to collect money." I quickly said, "Yes, yes, thank you, comrade police. We won't do it again next time. This time it's true." It’s a waste of time for you to go all the way.”
"You're welcome. If you need anything next time, just come to us directly. Okay! Close the team!"
The police closed the team, and the people were not so excited and made way for them. The leader took the lead and pinched his eyebrows with a headache.
No matter who worked so hard to bring people here, the result is that the trip was in vain and the mood will not be any better.
"I remember that the instructions above include punishment for false accusations? Tell the county next door and let them remember to punish those gangsters who reported blindly. I remember that the crime of false accusations starts in three years, right?"
The men who were following him closely quickly reminded him, "They are already going to jail. I don't know if they can add more years to this situation."
"I should be able to add it. Forget it, I will go to the next county in person to tell you that this matter has caused a lot of trouble. If someone is falsely accused, there will be no punishment. If those little hooligans who are caught in the future want to take revenge on the people who had enmity with them in the past, they will do whatever they want. What to do about climbing?”
"It will cost us so much trouble and time to send the police once. We must be severely punished!"
After the men in uniform left, the gangster group couldn't think about how to make money in the future. They quickly thanked the people around them.
To be honest, no one in the gangster group would be unmoved when they saw the villagers they had helped stop the police from being arrested.
It is precisely because of being moved that I feel even more guilty that they are only being nice to everyone just to deal with the police.
After the two parties talked for a long time, the crowd gradually dispersed. The relatives went to comfort their relatives first, while the remaining bachelors looked at each other and finally expressed their worries.
"If we don't charge protection fees, what will we do in the future?"
"Yeah, we don't have any skills, we don't have any capital, we are broke, and we can't do anything except fight."
Liuzi didn't leave. His father was old and sick. He had been recuperating at home and didn't go out. It was probably no one to tell him if he hadn't come for such a long time, so he simply stayed to discuss it with everyone first.
"When something happened to my family before, I asked about the workmen. The wages were low, and the jobs with high wages were far away from home. It took a lot of effort to go back and forth, and they were busy almost all day long from morning to night..."
As soon as he said this, the others suddenly didn't know what to do.
They are people who are used to freedom. How can they bear to work hard all day long?
"The only other option is to sell things, but if you look at the vegetable farmers on our street, they first have to take care of their family land. Do you know how to take care of it?"
Only two people in the group said they would serve.
In this era where land is more important than a house, a large part of them choose to become gangsters who are looked down upon and feared because they do not have land.
Oh, no, he was a gangster who was once looked down upon and feared by others.
Everyone came up with ideas, but they were all rejected one by one.
By the end, everyone's self-confidence had been crushed to nothing.
It was only now that they discovered that they, who were once so dashing and free and easy to deal with, had turned out to be such useless people.
In the end, Liu Zi tentatively came up with an idea, "How about... we ask Brother Shi if there is anything we can do?"
"Brother Shi is the smartest and is our leader. Maybe he can come up with a solution."
Everyone looked stunned.
"Yes!! How could you forget Brother Shi! If Brother Shi hadn't reminded us of what happened this time, we would still be squatting in the prison!"
"I used to think Brother Shi could only fight, but I didn't expect his mind to be so flexible."
"Okay! Brother Shi usually comes to the county in the afternoon. We will ask him for his advice then. Maybe we can find a way. But it really doesn't work. Didn't Brother Shi say he wanted to go to the Magic City before? Anyway, I have nothing to do with it. No worries, I will go with you when the time comes. Even if you have to endure hardships outside, following Brother Shi will make you feel more at ease."
When they thought of Lin Shiheng, they all calmed down and their expressions were no longer as flustered as before. After discussing how to meet at the same place in the afternoon, they all dispersed back.
At the same time, as time passed, the countryside also learned about the arrest and release of people in the county.
The reputation of the gangsters has indeed been very good recently, and no one thinks that the police did the wrong thing by releasing people. Everyone who has been helped by them is happy, and those who have no intersection are just casual chats.
Because Lin Shiheng was going to the Magic City recently, he was worried that Lin's mother would be alone in the village without anyone to take care of her. He also became much friendlier to the people around him. He went to the mountains to hunt some rabbits and gave them to the neighbors. On the way, he met someone from the village. Even if I can’t carry the water, I will help.
Although everyone knew that he was helping people for a purpose, hoping that the villagers would help take care of his mother after he left, but after being helped, he would still have a good impression of Lin Shiheng.
I really hadn't noticed before, but this young man looks energetic, looks good when he smiles, and most importantly, he is really capable. The terrain here is quite strange, and the mountain is not known to have been eaten in a disaster year. It was empty because it was too close to the water source. Anyway, many people went up to try to catch prey but failed. Lin Shiheng only went there and brought back three rabbits, all of which were adults.
Moreover, he went there several times, and each time he gained something. With such a good skill, even if he couldn't make money in the Demon City and came back to live, he could still live a pretty good life by hunting.
When dealing with capable people, even if they don't have any ideas in their hearts, people will unconsciously pay attention to their attitudes.
They had a change of heart, and Lin Shiheng was interested in getting close to each other again. Soon, he could see everyone saying hello to each other while walking in the village.
This time, some people heard about the arrest in the city and gathered together to gossip.
It was a coincidence, as they were talking, Lin Shiheng happened to come down from the mountain over there, carrying two plump rabbits in his left hand and a beautiful colorful pheasant in his right hand.
Seeing them, the handsome young man smiled and shouted to the middle-aged woman who was talking among them, "Fifth Aunt, I just shot a pheasant. I will give you the long hair on this pheasant. Your little girl will give it to you." Yuan made a deal with me, if I hunt a pheasant, I’ll let him play with the long hair.”
The middle-aged woman who was called the fifth aunt came over quite flattered and looked at Lin Shiheng walking over and handing her some beautiful long pheasant feathers, "Xiaoyuan, kid, you are just playing for fun, are you really serious about going to the mountain?" beated?"
"What, am I not going to hit anything I encounter? Last time, my grandma gave me two chickens. No, I heard that wild animals nourish people. I killed this one today and will send it to her later."
Speaking of Mrs. Lin, several people present looked a little unnatural.
Recently, there have been a lot of people in the village who have had a warm relationship with Lin Shiheng. After all, if a good person suddenly turns bad, it will be a big surprise. But if a guy who has been naughty since he was young suddenly turns good, it will be a big surprise. The prodigal son turned back.
What's more, filial people can be liked no matter where they are placed.
They feel more and more that Lin Shiheng is a really good kid. Although he was a bit of a bastard before, as soon as his mother is involved, he can immediately turn around. Although he is not as miserable as those years when he was chewing tree bark, he is not as good as every day. As for eating meat, Lin Shiheng was willing to share the meat he had beaten from the mountains to his neighbors, just so that they could take care of his wife while he was away.
This is such a good boy who makes people cry.
Everyone praised it, but Mrs. Lin didn't.
It’s okay if you don’t praise me, but you have to belittle me very excitedly every time.
Lin Shiheng refused to call her grandma since she was a child, until he said that he cheated three chickens of the old Lin family.
Nonsence! !
Don't think they don't know, Granny Wan told them all. It was obviously this old woman who took the initiative to take people home to eat chicken happily, and she also disliked her for talking to the child Lin Shiheng for too long and delaying their grandparents. .
Later, when Lin Shiheng took away the two chickens, he met someone on the way back and said that his own grandmother had given him chickens to eat. His expression really reminded people of his childhood when he was so hungry that he couldn't even eat a mouthful of rice and was beaten by Mrs. Lin. The stubborn look when he was kicked out of the house.
He was so miserable when he was a child, but when he grew up, he could easily believe that Mrs. Lin was really good to him just because of two chickens.
He was happy, but he didn't know that Mrs. Lin always said that Lin Shiheng forced her to give the chicken to everyone she met.
If Lin Shiheng really knew how to do this, he would have done it long ago. Why wait until now? Just get two chickens?
No one knew how stingy she was. If she had really been forced to give it, she would have slapped her thighs and blocked the door of the Lin family and cried. She might have done something bad when she fingered the chicken before.
Lin Shiheng believed that it was because his own grandmother loved him that he gave him the chicken. Why didn't this kid see that he was so easy to deceive before?
A group of women had different expressions, but the fifth aunt realized that she had collected things, and could not just watch Lin Shiheng being deceived by the old lady Lin, so she persuaded, "Shi Heng, your grandma has raised a large group of chickens. I don't care about you." But, it’s better not to send it over, it would be nice to keep it to recuperate your mother’s health.”
"Grandma, what she has is also hers. I gave it to her as she wished. My mother is not in a hurry. I will go to the mountains tomorrow and get another one. Fifth Aunt, you guys chat first while I go back. Now that I’m home, I have to stew this chicken and send it to my grandma.”
"Hey, wait!"
Seeing that Lin Shiheng refused to listen and wanted to move forward after saying hello, the fifth aunt stopped the person in a hurry. When she was stopped, she saw the young man in front of her looking at her strangely, waiting for her to speak, and the words stuck in her throat came again. I can't say anything.
Although they all know that Mrs. Lin is uneasy and well-intentioned, she is still a grandma, and speaking ill of grandma to her grandson behind her back is something only a careless person like Mrs. Lin can do.
She choked for a few seconds, and finally changed her words, "Um, do you know about the arrests in the county?"
"Arrest people? What arrest people?"
Lin Shiheng's expression immediately became tense. "I have been in the mountains. What happened in the county?"
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that the boys you were playing with were reported. When the police comrades went to arrest them, they found out there was a misunderstanding and let them go."
"So that's it."
Lin Shiheng's face relaxed again, he held the wild animal in his hand and said with a smile, "When I went to the city before, they were cracking down on criminals. They stole money, robbed, etc. If they were caught before, they would be punished. But now they are caught." If you get it, you'll be put in jail, and if it's serious, you might be shot, but my brothers are fine, they've never done anything like this."
"Hey, we also know that otherwise the police comrades wouldn't be able to let them go. I just want to tell you so that you don't get anxious after hearing only half a sentence from others."
"Hey, okay, then I'll leave first if it's okay."
Waiting for Lin Shiheng to go away, a group of people gathered around and started gossiping again.
First, he talked about how cruel and unwelcome Mrs. Lin was, and then she said that this young man Lin Shiheng was actually a really nice person. In the past, he seemed difficult to deal with, probably because he was an orphan and a widower. I couldn’t stand up. If he hadn't been more ruthless, he would have been bullied to death long ago.
As he talked, he talked about arresting people again.
Some people think that robbery and shooting are excessive, while others think that this should be done. Otherwise, why would people's hard-earned money be stolen and taken away like this?
They talked intensely, but in fact they were just interested for a moment, and after chatting for a while they all dispersed to work.
But these words have a different meaning to the ears of those who are interested.
Still Widow Zhang.
After she recovered from the injury, she started to tossing her daughter-in-law and tossing her little granddaughter. Her son didn't toss her, but his nose wasn't his nose and his eyes weren't his eyes.
Widow Zhang is different from other widows who value their only child more than their own life. Her husband died trying to save his son, and her son was a cripple who couldn't even farm.
Many times, she thought, if only it was her son who died instead of her husband, her son could be reborn, but it would be difficult to find another son after her husband died and took away the oil bottle.
She was not stupid. She knew that she only had one son to rely on. No matter how unhappy she was, she never vented it on her face. At most, she was a little cold. When her son married her daughter-in-law, she vented her anger on her daughter-in-law. .
Some time ago, she had a fight with Mrs. Zhang and sprained her waist, which made her lie in bed for two days. She didn't expect that she would find out about it as soon as she went out.
Can you be shot for stealing money?
Where could Lin Shiheng's money come from if it wasn't stolen or robbed?
This is another new threat point!
Widow Zhang headed towards the Lin family in an aggressive and confident manner.
Lin Shiheng happened to be standing at the door, as if waiting for her.
When Widow Zhang said the threatening words, the young man, who was more and more handsome even though he was wearing shabby clothes, looked around, as if observing whether anyone noticed here.
Widow Zhang thought he was guilty, and her expression became even more proud. "Don't look. No one is watching this place now, so you don't have to worry. I don't want more, just half. As long as you give me half, this matter must be known by heaven, earth, you, and me, and no third person will know."
"Really no one."
Lin Shiheng nodded, walked to Widow Zhang, looked at her calmly for a long time, and slowly smiled at her face that was gradually losing its toughness.
"No one, I feel relieved."
What? What relieved?
Before Widow Zhang could react, the person in front of her stretched out his hand, and a huge force came over her, and she was thrown out directly.
Accompanied by the pain, Widow Zhang covered her fallen leg and screamed subconsciously.
"Lin Shiheng! Aren't you afraid that I will report you! That's a death sentence!"
The young man standing by the door stepped back into the yard and slammed the door shut.
Widow Zhang: "..."
She didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and she lay there in a daze for a long time, until an old man with a basket on his back passed by and asked kindly, "Did you fall? Do you want me to help you?"
Widow Zhang realized, "It's Lin..."
The door of the Lin family suddenly opened, and a young man who had just picked vegetables came out with a leaf in his hand, looking puzzled. Seeing this scene, he was surprised and ran to Widow Zhang and helped him up with great effort, "Why did you fall in front of my house? Get up quickly, oh, you are so heavy, it's really hard for me to help you."
Widow Zhang looked at the face in front of her that was full of innocence and surprise, and her lips trembled with anger.
This man just picked her up with one hand and threw her far away, and now he pretended that he couldn't help her! !
The brain that originally just wanted to extort money was now filled with anger.
She only had one idea left.
Report Lin Shiheng and have him shot!
Immediately! !
"Good!! Good you, Lin Shiheng!! You wait for me!!"
Seeing Widow Zhang shake off his hand and limp away without looking back, Lin Shiheng's face was even more surprised. He looked at her back, then lowered his head to look at his hands, and turned to look at the old man passing by.
"What happened? Did I hurt her when I helped her up?"
The old man knew a little bit that Widow Zhang looked down on her daughter-in-law, and thinking about the fact that Lin Shiheng was also her daughter-in-law's nephew, he had some idea in his mind.
He freed one hand to touch his long beard, and said to the young man who had changed his ways in front of him in a very friendly tone, "Don't worry about her, this woman is narrow-minded and is angry with you."
"Okay, go home and continue working, I'm leaving too, my family is waiting for me to eat."
"Hey, please go slowly, this basket looks heavy, do you want me to help carry it?"
The old man smiled and shook his hand, "No, no, I carry things every day, why do I need you to carry them for me."
He continued to walk forward, thinking as he walked, it seems that Lin Shiheng has really changed.
How polite.
Lin Shiheng, who was praised for his politeness, was arrested by the police that afternoon.
Widow Zhang stood behind the three police officers in high spirits, watching them search the Lin family and indeed found a large stack of banknotes.
"See? I've said it before. This money was either stolen or robbed. This guy has been a gangster since he was a child. Anyway, it's definitely not earned in a legitimate way. Public security comrades, you quickly arrest him and shoot him!"
Lin Shiheng didn't even look at her. He said to the three police officers, "This money is earned by selling watermelon juice and helping people sell cakes in the city. The source of the channel is legal. If you don't believe it, you can go to the city and ask the cake shop owner."
The police looked at each other, because a large group of colleagues encountered a situation in the county in the morning where people blocked the road and prevented them from arresting the falsely accused. They held an emergency meeting. They must verify the facts before arresting people, so as to avoid the same kind of wrong arrest. It's a small matter to embarrass yourself, but it's a matter of ruining someone's life to mistake a good person for a bad person.
Moreover, they also have a good impression of the young man in front of them who cooperates with the investigation very well.
"Give us the address of the cake shop, we will ask a colleague to verify it. Please bear with us for a while tonight and let us stay here for one night."
"Okay, no problem, I will cooperate with you."
Widow Zhang was a little stunned when she saw the scene of police and citizens being so close to each other in front of her. "Wait! Why don't you take the person to the police station?"
One of the police explained patiently, "After all, we haven't found out clearly yet, so we can't just take the person to the station. The city is too far away. We will ask a comrade to drive a police car to the city to verify it. If the content of your report is true, we will arrest you."
"What else is there to verify? You can imagine! Such a large amount of money How could he earn money by himself? He also sells watermelon juice, how much does a watermelon cost? ! "This kid has never been a good guy since he was young. If you don't catch him tonight, he will definitely run away. "Lin Shiheng sighed helplessly, "I know you don't like my aunt, but you don't have to treat me like this? What? If you can't earn the money, I can't earn it either?" One of the police officers heard this and his eyebrows moved, "What's your relationship?" "She is my aunt's mother-in-law. She usually doesn't like my aunt, and she also doesn't like me. I thought it was a family matter, but I didn't expect that she would dislike me to the point of looking for you. "
Lin Shiheng's face was filled with bitterness, and he seemed very puzzled by Widow Zhang's behavior.
Another one with a personal vendetta.
The three police officers looked at each other. That group in the county in the morning was just because the gangsters from the next county were messing around with each other because of personal vendettas, which made everyone's trip in vain.
If it happens again this time, the police in their county will be laughed to death.
The police were dispatched twice in one day, and both times were false news. What prestige is there at all?
Thinking of this, a police officer said seriously, "Madam, we will send people to the city to verify the information. If the information is verified correctly, we will arrest the person. But if the verification is wrong and it is found that you fabricated the report due to personal grudges, you will be falsely accused." crime, a prison term of more than three years.”
Widow Zhang, who was still urging the police to arrest the person directly, was stunned, "What? Why should I be sentenced if I report it? I didn't steal anything!"
Seeing her expression, the public security officer became more and more certain that she was just making it up, and frowned, "Reporting false news, which leads to the dispatch of police officers from the police station, is illegal, and of course you will be sentenced."
Widow Zhang was originally very sure that Lin Shiheng's money was not obtained through regular means, but she still panicked when she heard the sentence. When she looked up again and clearly saw the smile in Lin Shiheng's eyes, she felt even more unsure.
Could it be that he really earned that money?
She didn't believe it, but what if it was true?
Then wouldn’t she, the whistleblower, have to be sentenced?
Widow Zhang's mind was in chaos, leaving only one idea.
Lin Shiheng’s crime must be firmly punished!
A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through her mind, and she clapped her hands suddenly, "Comrade Public Security!! And! Lin Shiheng also stole a chicken! Stealing a chicken is also stealing. This must be true. I can guarantee it. If you don't believe it, you will come here." Ask the chicken owner at home!"
If you steal a chicken...
Although it is small, it is indeed a steal.
The three police officers finally took Lin Shiheng and Widow Zhang to Lao Lin's house. The surrounding villagers saw them wearing uniforms and taking Lin Shiheng with them. Whether they were curious or worried, they all followed.
Knocking on the door of Old Lin's house, Old Mrs. Lin was startled when she saw this posture when she opened the door. When she heard what Widow Zhang said, she was stunned again.
"Old Mrs. Lin, you will be sentenced for stealing something!"
No one knows better than Widow Zhang how much Mrs. Lin dislikes seeing her grandson. She quickly said, "Maybe he will be shot! You have to tell the truth!"
Lin Shiheng, who had been silent all this time, had red eyes. He looked at his grandmother in front of him and said softly, "Grandma, you gave me those three chickens. Can you testify for me?"
When did Mrs. Lin ever see Lin Shiheng, her grandson, submissive to her?
She immediately looked proud.
Hey, no matter how arrogant you were before, it still fell into his hands.
She didn't notice the surprised look in the police officer's eyes when she heard Lin Shiheng calling her grandma. She raised her chest and raised her head, patted her breasts, and said loudly, "He took those three chickens!! I didn't give them to them!"
"Get him quickly!!"
The police did not listen to her words and arrest her. Instead, they turned around and asked Lin Shiheng, "Is she your grandmother?"
"Yes, dear."
The young man who had only looked helpless when he was reported by Widow Zhang was now filled with suppressed sadness, and even his eyes were red.
He lowered his head and stretched out his hands, "Comrade Public Security, no one saw her when she gave me the chicken. No one can testify for me. Take me away."
Mrs. Lin's expression became more and more arrogant, "Yes!! Take him away quickly!! Shoot him!!"
She had already set her sights on the Lin family's big house and fields. Once Lin Shiheng died, his mother would not be at her mercy.
The three police officers looked at the handsome young man whose expression became increasingly sad, and then at Old Mrs. Lin who was almost laughing, but hesitated and did not move.
When Mrs. Lin saw it, she became anxious, "Why are you still standing there! He said he had no witnesses, so doesn't that mean he admitted it? Arrest him quickly!"
The villagers who were watching were already aggrieved, and she added fuel to the fire. The fifth aunt, who had gotten a few pheasant feathers from Lin Shiheng before, was so angry that she stood up.
"Are you sorry for saying this?! You obviously gave him the chicken! At that time, you dragged him to your house to drink chicken soup. We also said that you had changed your gender and that your relationship was waiting here!!"
"Let me tell you, if you do such an unjust thing, you will be struck by lightning from the sky!!"
Mrs. Lin was overwhelmed by her words and became angry herself. She scolded her, "I gave him chicken soup!! But he forced me to drink it! There were two more chickens! He grabbed it himself." Go away, force me to give it to you! Oh, my chicken! I worked so hard to raise it, but it was snatched away like this..."
"Bah!! Who doesn't know that you are stingy and can still give out things you don't want to give? Shi Heng has been thrown out by you like some kind of garbage since he was a child. He finally grew up and became successful, and you are still thinking about it. You want to plot against him, what a good boy, I even shot a pheasant to give it to you, saying that if grandma is good to him, he should also be good to grandma! Do you have a heart to do this to your own grandson? Black Hand, I curse you to death and pull out your skin!"
"You thing, I will kill you!! He will say respect me? He was the one who stole those three chickens!!"
Seeing the two people shouting at each other, the three police officers quickly controlled the situation, "Don't curse first, speak clearly, we will investigate one by one..."
"I bear witness!!"
Granny Wan came out on crutches and glanced at Old Mrs. Lin with disdain, "I testify, she gave him that chicken!"
"I saw clearly at the time that this old woman was dragging her child to her home. Shi Heng was given a chicken by her and she even met me on the way back. She said it was a chicken given by her grandma."
"Yes! I will also testify!"
"Me too!"
"Shi Heng is a good boy, and he is very good at hunting. He can hunt a lot of rabbits and pheasants from the mountains every day. Today he also caught two rabbits and a pheasant. If he wants to eat chickens, he can just hunt them himself. There is no need to rob them."
"That's right! This kid is so generous. He killed a rabbit and gave it to us neighbors to eat. How could he steal a chicken!"
A group of people testified one after another, and Mrs. Lin was so angry that her eyes turned black. But before she could curse again, the three police officers on the side had already announced with dark faces that they would continue the investigation.
"The matter of stealing chickens has been fully investigated. You two have been arrested on suspicion of false accusations. Please cooperate with the investigation."
Mrs. Lin, who was in a fierce mood, suddenly froze, "What?? Am I being arrested?"
Aren't you arresting Lin Shiheng? ! !
Why did he end up arresting her? !
