Chapter 324 Dissatisfied

"Not satisfied." Chen Qingqing blurted out without hesitation.

Qin Shousheng frowned, a look of displeasure on his face, "What else do you want?"

"Your Excellency, although my elder brother was severely injured by Wang Decai, several other people also took action. They should also be punished accordingly, otherwise my elder brother's crime would have been in vain.

Also, even if Wu Shiren didn't do it, he was the instigator. As the owner of his restaurant, he has an unshirkable responsibility for this and must make appropriate compensation. If you just brush this matter off lightly, I won't accept it."

After hearing what Chen Qingqing said, Zhao Tian, ​​Wang Qi and others were stunned and looked at each other.

This damn girl looks so weak, but how could she be so cruel? She even wants the county magistrate to beat them with a stick. It's really bullying.

Wu Shiren was surprised at first, then turned into anger, his eyes almost popping out of his head. "Mr. Chen, do you still have any conscience? It was our testimony that got Wang Decai the punishment he deserved. Now you're biting us back and wanting compensation. It's totally unreasonable."

"That's right, we didn't do anything. You are wrongly accusing a good person!" Zhao Tian recovered and said indignantly.

Wang Qi also flatly denied it, "Yes, I only saw Wang Decai hit Chen Feng. The rest of us didn't even lay a finger on him."

Wu Shiren was so angry that his fat body was shaking. Wang Qi and Zhao Tian were all chefs that the shop couldn't do without. If they were beaten, the shop would be without a chef and would have to close down.

No, they must not be beaten.

"Sir, I can guarantee that it was Wang Decai who did it alone. No one else did anything. You can't just listen to their one-sided story."

Qin Shousheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, Shopkeeper Wu. What I need to make a judgment is evidence. Since you said you didn't fight, I naturally believe what you said."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Qingqing with dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"Miss Chen, you said these people also participated in the beating, but they can all testify against each other, proving that it was only Wang Decai who beat people. I have already severely punished the murderer.

As for Wu Shiren, he's also a victim. Since he didn't do anything, it's enough to prove that he didn't instigate this incident. So, stop being unreasonable and take your family home immediately!"

This is clearly a cover-up, a naked cover-up!

Chen Qingqing frowned. She knew that it was not easy to make Wang Decai, the instigator, pay the price today.

If these people stubbornly refuse to admit it, there is really nothing we can do and we will have to swallow our pride.

It seems that if I want to deal with these people, I will have to find other opportunities later.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Wang Guotou shout loudly, "Master, I can prove that these people took action."

Wu Shiren was startled and gave him a look of displeasure. "Wang Guotou, this has nothing to do with you. Stop talking nonsense and shut up!"

Wang Guotou ignored him as if he hadn't heard anything. He knelt down and kowtowed in the court, "Sir, I personally witnessed these people attacking Chen Feng."

Qin Shousheng originally wanted to make a big deal out of a small matter and save face for Wu Shiren. After all, he would give some filial piety money every year.

But now another witness has appeared, and I am so angry.

As a county official, I had to suppress my anger.

"Since you have seen it with your own eyes, why don't you tell the truth quickly?"

Wu Shiren glared at Wang Guotou with gritted teeth and threatened, "Wang Guotou, think carefully before you speak, or I will disregard the years of master-servant relationship we have had."

Wang Guotou glanced at Wu Shiren cautiously. This man was greedy and stingy. He would find various reasons to deduct their wages every month.

If he told the truth now, he might lose his job, but seeing Chen Feng being bullied, he would feel guilty if he didn't speak out.

He hardened his heart and gritted his teeth.

"The shopkeeper closed the shop early that day. I went home and slept all night. When I woke up, I found that I had forgotten the snacks I bought for my wife at home. I went back to the shop to get them. It was just dawn. I was afraid of disturbing the people in the shop, so I walked quietly. But when I got to the shop, I found that the shack where Chen Feng lived was surrounded by people. I didn't know what was going on, so I hid behind the door and peeked.

After listening carefully, they found out that Wang Decai had lost his silver and said that Chen Feng had stolen it. Then everyone started punching and kicking him, and some even beat him to death with sticks. Except for the shopkeeper Wu Shiren, everyone else took action.

If you don’t believe me, you can look at Zhao Tian’s arm. He was injured that day and there should still be scars on his arm.

And Wang Qi, in his panic, Chen Feng scratched the back of his neck a few times, I saw all of this with my own eyes..."

The more they listened, the more guilty they felt. Wang Qi unconsciously covered the back of his neck, and Zhao Tian also put his arms behind his back.

Chen Qingqing didn't expect things to turn around, and she looked at Wang Guotou with gratitude.

She said with a righteous look on her face, "Sir, now that the witnesses and the evidence are clear, please punish the evildoers and give justice to my eldest brother."

Qin Shousheng's face looked extremely ugly. Although he intended to protect Wu Shiren and his associates, the lobby was full of people watching the excitement. If the case was handled unfairly, it would definitely arouse public anger and would be extremely detrimental to his career.

You can't throw away the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds, or you can't capsize in the ditch. You must proceed steadily and steadily to achieve success.

He had to bite the bullet and pronounce the verdict loudly.

"Wang Qi, Zhao Tian, ​​and the others assisted the principal offender in assaulting others, committing the crime of complicity. While this crime does not warrant the death penalty, it has endangered someone's life. Therefore, I hereby sentence them to twenty strokes of the cane each, and to pay Chen Feng one tael of silver in compensation for his medical expenses. If there are no objections, payment will be made immediately."

Wang Qi, Zhao Tian and others stood there dumbfounded. Before they could figure out what was going on, they were dragged out by the yamen runners like dead dogs to be executed.

There was a sudden wailing outside.

Qin Shousheng gritted his teeth and looked at Chen Qingqing, "Miss Chen, are you satisfied with this result?"

Chen Qingqing raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Your Excellency is very perceptive and can judge cases like a god. Such a fair ruling is truly a blessing for the people. I admire your wisdom and intelligence very much."

Listening to Chen Qingqing's flattery, Qin Shousheng's unsightly expression softened a little, and he slammed the gavel, "Adjourn!"
