Chapter 295

After Wang Wanjun sent Wang Fang away, he lit a cigarette and sat at the table to smoke.

Surrounded by smoke, his expressionless face also took on a hint of gloom.

His grandfather and Wang Zhongli's father are brothers. It is said that the first generation is close, the second generation is representative, and the third and fourth generations are gone.

Although they are nominally members of the Wang family, they can only be regarded as poor relatives of the Wang family. Except for occasionally meeting each other during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, they hardly speak to each other throughout the year.

The Wang family’s ancestors were considered a wealthy family, but their current status in Kyoto was all achieved through the efforts of the direct lineage.

During the turbulent times, Wang Zhongli's father and Wang Wanjun's grandfather split up due to disagreements. The grandfather and another brother chose to live in their ancestral land and guard the family property to live their own lives. They felt that no matter who took over the world, it would not affect them, the common people.

Wang Zhongli's father joined the Communist Party with his family and the small portion of the property he received.

As Wang Zhongli's relatives died one after another, Wang Wanjun's grandfather and great uncle were even more grateful that they did not follow that branch.

Later, Wang Zhongli's position became higher and higher, and his power grew. The attitudes of the other two groups also changed from ridicule and contempt to fawning and ingratiation.

Outsiders all thought that the Wang family was united, but in fact Wang Zhongli and Wang Zhongru simply looked down on the other two branches.

If there wasn't an old uncle still alive, they would have been concerned about this elder and might have cut off all ties and had no contact with him long ago.

Not only are Wang Zhongli and Wang Zhongru difficult to approach, but there are also few younger people under them who are worth talking to.

Wang Jie was not in Kyoto. He was transferred to work in the northwest in his early years. Wang Jingtao was a cold-hearted person and ignored them completely. It took him a lot of effort to get close to Wang Fang.

The world is different now than it was before. Before, the Wang family was considered a local gentry and felt superior to others, but in the new society they are just the lowest class.

If it weren't for the existence of Wang Zhongli's branch, perhaps all the members of the other two branches would now be classified as the "five black categories".

Therefore, he must take advantage of the fact that the old man above is still alive and use the power of the Wang family to get as much as possible.

Not to mention that Wang Fang offered such good conditions, even if the other party gave nothing, he would still want to owe her a favor.

Even though he works in the police force now, he is not a professional and has no advantages in physical fitness or investigation.

The reason he has gotten to where he is today is that he spends a small half of his monthly salary on maintaining relationships and social connections.

He has several children at home and his wife is just an ordinary textile factory worker.

The eldest brother is dating someone, and that person wants a job and a dowry. If Huai Liu can get a job as a salesperson at the Friendship Shopping Mall, then this job as a weighing and counting clerk at the coking coal plant can be given to the eldest brother's girlfriend.

Once this problem is solved, it is a big deal for the family. The new daughter-in-law will come into the family at the end of the year, and maybe we will have a new baby next year.

Wang Wanjun rubbed his face, a look of determination flashed in his eyes, and he made up his mind in an instant.

Inside the detention center.

Qin Xiangxiang, with a haggard face, huddled in the corner, holding a fist-sized steamed bun and stuffing it into her mouth with all her strength, her eyes darting around vigilantly. She couldn't stand the choking anymore and quickly drank a mouthful of the cold cabbage soup.

The moment the older sister in the dormitory looked at her, she quickly stuffed the remaining half of the steamed bun in her hand into her mouth.

Then he lowered his eyes as if in fear, and only after the fierce gaze had moved away from him did he dare to continue chewing the food in his mouth.

As expected, the steamed bun in No. 117's hand was snatched away again. She seemed to have accepted her fate and didn't care. There was only indifference on her face, without any emotion.

She didn't even look up at the person who stole her steamed bun, but just numbly lowered her head and drank her cabbage soup.

The meal passed quickly, and after sitting quietly for a while, it was time to go out for some fresh air.

This is a rare opportunity to go out into the yard and move around, and everyone's faces finally look a bit more lively.

Qin Xiangxiang followed the crowd, looking around, trying to find the supervisor who helped her deliver the message.

It’s been so many days, why haven’t Meifang and Changan come yet?

Even if Su Yi couldn't be persuaded, wasn't there still the Wang family? If all else failed, he could come over and visit first.

She has been in there for more than half a month and has understood some of the unspoken rules. As long as her family takes care of things, she can live in a double or triple room, and even her daily meals can be changed from steamed buns with pickles to stir-fries.

As long as either Meifang or Chang'an could come to visit her, her situation would not be worse than it is now. She knew her own children would never watch her suffer.

Everyone walked out of the iron gate corridor one by one. Many people couldn't stand the glare and subconsciously raised their hands to cover their eyes.

The yard is very spacious, and the high walls prevent everyone from seeing any scenery outside. They can only look at the mountains in the distance and look up at the blue sky above their heads.

"Number 117, step out!"

The numb-faced woman slowly turned her head and saw the supervisor waving at her. She walked over with an expressionless face.

The female supervisor holding the iron rod said to Wang Wanjun in a flattering manner, "Officer Wang, feel free to ask anything!"

Then he shouted at No. 117 who had come up to him, "Officer Wang wants you to investigate some cases. Cooperate well and try to get leniency!"

Wang Wanjun brought No. 117 to the corner of the wall and pretended to take out a file from his briefcase. Several files were clamped by a zebra-patterned hairpin.

Finally, there was a ripple on No. 117's cold face.

"Officer Wang, I, I, Juan'er..."

Wang Wanjun looked at the woman in front of him with pity. He had followed this case from beginning to end.

Prisoner: Luo Yuesheng, 37 years old. Her husband died early. Five years ago, she remarried her current husband Gao Wenhua with her 10-year-old daughter Liu Hongjuan.

Gao Wenhua is a widower who lives with her 12-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter and her elderly mother. The couple got together after being introduced by someone.

After marriage, the couple went to work, and Gao's mother took care of the three children at home. Gao's mother was patriarchal, so it was okay at the beginning, at least they could get by on appearances.

As time went by, he became partial to his own granddaughter, and was even more harsh on Liu Hongjuan, who had no blood relationship with the Gao family. He would beat and scold Hongjuan behind other people's backs and torture her in secret.

Luo Yuesheng works in a printing factory, standing at her workstation for long hours doing repetitive work. The daily exhaustion made her unable to notice her daughter's situation.

In addition, in order not to worry her mother, Liu Hongjuan deliberately concealed the fact. Until not long ago, Luo Yuesheng discovered that her 17-year-old stepson had extended his claws to her 15-year-old daughter, and her husband and parents-in-law all protected her stepson.

Liu Hongjuan could no longer bear the mental pressure and broke down telling her mother about the unfair treatment she had received over the years.

Not only the stepson, but also her husband Gao Wenhua...

Luo Yuesheng was abused during an argument between Gao Wenhua and her son. He then hacked Gao Wenhua to death with a knife and seriously injured his stepson.

The law of the country is ruthless. Although there are reasons for the incident, Luo Yuesheng will have to serve at least 20 years in prison. After the verdict comes out, she will be transferred to a prison below.
