Chapter 177 I Have Surveillance
"Who is this?"
“Seems like a big leader.”
"I saw him last time. He seemed to be a director, a high-ranking official!"
Upon seeing this, Zhao Chunsheng put his wife down and knelt down in front of Hao Zhiguo, "Leader, you have to take charge of this for me. My wife was killed by them!"
"Who killed him?" Hao Zhiguo frowned.
"That's them!" Zhao Chunsheng pointed at Leng Yi and Yang Qing. "Yesterday, my grandson was sick and my wife came to ask for medicine. Not only did they not give it to her, they even mobilized the crowd to scold her."
"He even tricked my wife out in the middle of the night and killed her. Leader, you must take charge of this for me!"
Zhao Chunsheng knocked down towards Hao Zhiguo, who quickly stopped him and said, "Get up first!"
"What's going on?" Hao Zhiguo looked at Leng Yi and Yang Qing.
Leng Yi picked up the intercom and said to Lu Lin inside, "Lu Lin, turn off the power to the iron gate."
"Yes!" Lu Lin replied and turned off the power. "Okay."
Leng Yi stretched out his hand to open the iron gate. "Leader, you've come at the right time. I've collected a lot of centipedes these past few days, and I can't put them here anymore. Please send someone to take them away."
"As for what this person said, I don't know anything at all." Leng Yi glanced at Zhao Chunsheng coldly, "I didn't kill anyone. I haven't seen that middle-aged woman since she went home yesterday, and I don't know why she appeared at my doorstep."
"Killing someone for a fever-reducing pill is something I wouldn't even bother to do."
"Who else could it be if not you?" Zhao Chunsheng's face was filled with hatred. "We've never had any arguments with our neighbors. We've always lived in harmony. We just had a fight yesterday. Who else could it be if not you?"
"Live in harmony?" Yang Qing sneered. Judging from the shrewish look that woman had shown yesterday, it would be impossible for them to get along in harmony.
"Boss, yesterday she came over with her grandson and said she wanted to change the medicine. Our rule here is to exchange 500 kilograms of centipedes for two pills. It's not that I didn't want to change it for her, but she didn't bring any centipedes, so I thought I'd see if the medicine was necessary first."
"I took her child's temperature at 38.3 degrees Celsius, which wasn't too high. I told her she didn't need to take any medicine and just wait for observation. She refused, calling us cruel and even cursing us for not having an anus when we give birth."
"Of course I couldn't stand this, so I kicked her out."
"She died inexplicably on my doorstep this morning. We have no idea what happened."
"Yes, we saw it yesterday," someone said. "That woman was being unreasonable. People had helped her child get drugs and applied medicine, but she insisted on getting the medicine for free."
"She even cursed at us. Her words were really nasty. Who pampered her? She walked away in shame after we told her off."
"You're talking nonsense!" Zhao Chunsheng yelled. "Did you accept any bribes from them to slander my wife like this?"
"If it wasn't them, how could she have so many injuries on her body? How could she have been hit on the head so badly? Did she hit herself?"
Hiding behind the crowd, Daming curled his lips and thought, "Didn't you hit me? We all heard it."
As for the injury on his head, he didn't know what happened. No matter how cruel Zhao Chunsheng was, he wouldn't beat his wife to death, right?
Yang Qing walked over and took off Aunt Zhao's clothes to take a look. After a night, there were corpse spots on her body, but there were also some bruises on her body that were obviously caused by beatings.
Maybe this man hit himself and is now biting back.
"Leader, you have to make the decision for me. My wife can't die in vain!" Zhao Chunsheng burst into tears.
Hao Zhiguo had a headache. He had come here today to discuss with Yang Qing and the others about setting up a centipede cake processing factory, but he never expected that such a complication would arise.
"The matter has not been investigated clearly yet, so it may not be them who did it," said Hao Zhiguo.
"If it wasn't them, who else could it be? And my wife died right in front of their house. How can we explain this?" Zhao Chunsheng said, "They say they didn't kill her. Why don't they show us the evidence?"
Li Liang frowned. "You are the one who accused them of murder. Whoever makes the claim must provide evidence. You should provide the evidence..."
"How can I take it? I'm just an ordinary citizen. The murder should be investigated by you police officers. Oh, and aren't you a police officer? Are you trying to protect them by speaking up for them? You're just protecting one another!"
Li Liang was furious when he heard this. "I resigned yesterday. I have no obligation to help you investigate. Go report the case yourself. The boss is here and he will naturally make arrangements."
"You..." Hao Zhiguo looked at Leng Yi and Yang Qing.
Yang Qing smiled and said, "We didn't kill anyone. We actually have evidence."
Yang Qing glanced at everyone and said, "You may not know this, but I have surveillance cameras installed in my house. There are cameras all around the villa. We can see everything you do outside."
"What happened yesterday was clearly captured on camera. We'll find out who killed that woman once we see it."
Zhao Chunsheng was horrified when he heard this and fell to the ground, "Impossible, impossible..."
It's the end of the world, there are power outages everywhere, and all surveillance cameras are out of service. How could they still have surveillance cameras in their house?
She must be lying, she must be bluffing, she must be scaring herself.
"Linlin, make a copy of last night's surveillance footage." Yang Qing picked up the intercom and said to Lu Lin.
"Got it!" Lu Lin replied.
He rewound the surveillance footage, copied the period from a few minutes before Aunt Zhao came last night to dawn, transferred it to his mobile phone, and then walked out with the phone.
"It's all here." Lu Lin handed over the phone.
Everyone looked at their phones. After such a long time in the apocalypse, almost everyone’s phones were unusable because they had no power and no way to charge them. All the phones were useless, so how could theirs still be used?
By the way, they even connected electricity to the iron gate, so there must be a power source.
They just live a good life.
Yang Qing opened the video and held it in front of Hao Zhiguo, and everyone else came over to watch.
Zhao Chunsheng saw that something was wrong and secretly stepped back to run away.
Li Liang grabbed him and said, "Why are you running? Don't you want to know how your wife died? Let's take a look together!"
On the phone, Aunt Zhao lit a gasoline bottle and threw it into the yard, but because she was electrocuted by the iron gate, the gasoline bottle didn't go far and she fell down.
"She actually set a fire? She was going to burn them to death. How could she be so cruel?"
"You still say he's a murderer, but she's the real murderer!"
"You really can't judge a person by his appearance. I didn't expect that she would dare to do such a thing."
"That's so mean! She wanted to burn my whole family to death just because I didn't give her the medicine?"
Hao Zhiguo's face also darkened. He didn't expect things to be like this?
He said that Leng Yi and the others didn't seem like that kind of people.
After Aunt Zhao fell down, the fire in the yard burned out on its own after a short while.
No one came out of the room.
"Fortunately, there was not enough gasoline and it didn't hit the door, otherwise everyone inside would have been burned to death."
"She even brought gasoline with her. She really wants to burn people to death!" everyone exclaimed.
Until the gasoline burned out, no one came out and the picture remained still for a long time.
Yang Qing was about to come in.
It was not until dawn that Zhao Chunshan came looking for him.
The surveillance video showed that Aunt Zhao was no longer moving. Zhao Chunshan held her for a while, then picked up a stone from the side and hit her on the forehead, then threw the stone away and started howling again.
"So it's the thief crying thief? Did he kill himself?"
"Why is he so cruel?"
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me," Zhao Chunshan said hastily. "She was already dead when I got here. She was long gone."
"Then why did you slander Leng Yi and others for killing your wife?" Hao Zhiguo's face darkened.
"I wanted to extort some money, but I didn't expect they had surveillance."
"Now it's all right, I got what I asked for!"
"Even if he's dead, he can't do this. That's his wife!"
"What a sin!"
