Chapter 29 Arrest (3rd update) The left hand shows the police badge, the right hand shows the...

Yao Jingjing returned to the Duan family, feeling completely absent-minded.

Duan Cheng took a shower, hugged her, kissed and nibbled her, and she just responded casually.

Duan Cheng could see that she was not in good condition and thought she was feeling unwell because of her pregnancy, so he just kissed her without any further action.

Yao Jingjing rubbed his soft, short, furry hair as if coaxing a dog: "Help me find some sour dates, I want to eat some."

Duan Cheng was easy to coax. He stayed in her arms for another two minutes and then quickly got up.

Meihong was sitting outside knitting and asked casually, "Why are you going out again?"

"Jingjing wants to eat sour dates. Mom, I'll be back soon. Do you want to bring anything?" Duan Cheng was very happy and smiled.

Meihong was also happy. She wanted to eat something sour, sour boys and spicy girls. So she quickly gave him a hundred yuan and said, "No need to bring any. Just buy her whatever she wants. Don't be stingy. It's not like our family can't afford it."

Duan Cheng said thank you to his mother and went out happily.

Meihong was also busy. She quickly put down the unfinished sweater and went to find a friend to order monk robes and urine rings.

Yao Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief knowing that there was no one else at home, but she was afraid that her mother-in-law would come in and hear her making a phone call, so she left quickly.

After finding a supply and marketing cooperative far away, Yao Jingjing called the Yicheng Power Supply Station to look for Wang Aiming.

She didn't want to call directly unless it was absolutely necessary, as it would easily expose her, but she couldn't care less at the moment.

Wang Aiming has been having a headache these days and is trying to find a way to get Yao Erdan and Wang Fang out, but who can he turn to?

He had originally planned to let his niece marry Director Hu, but now this path is obviously not feasible. Director Hu still hates him for standing him up and refuses to see him.

He was so anxious that blisters formed on his lips.

He went to look for Tang Fengyuan again. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked for him, but after he did, he was so angry that he couldn't eat.

At this moment, Yao Jingjing called, and he quickly complained, "Something's wrong with that Tang family. Wouldn't anyone, knowing their in-laws were in trouble, rush to find a way to rescue them? But she's so calm and collected, even accusing me of meddling. Did she know something?"

Yao Jingjing took the landline and whispered to the side, "I guess so. Genbao came here and caused a lot of trouble. Uncle, please quickly solve that hidden danger. I will definitely take care of you and live a good life in the future. Okay, I won't say anymore. I have to think of a way to protect myself. That's it. Hurry up."

"Okay, then you be careful." Wang Aiming understood that the way to solve the hidden danger was to kill Yao Zhizhi.

It was all his fault for being greedy and wanting to get a bigger share of the betrothal money. But who would have thought that his efforts would end in vain.

I'm so angry.

But... he wasn't sure. After all, this was in the city. It would be much simpler in the countryside.

Why not trick Yao Zhizhi back? He doesn't have to actually kill her, just sell her off. He's really short of money.

He quickly packed up and prepared to find an opportunity to go over and give it a try.

At the supply and marketing cooperative, Yao Jingjing hesitated for a long time and called a man. When the man heard it was her, he warned her not to contact him anymore and hung up.

He no longer cared about the difficulties she encountered.

Yao Jingjing had no choice but to dial another number, crying, pitiful and helpless: "Auntie, my mother knows."

"I've advised you long ago to have them kill her and put an end to it. Who can you blame?"

"She did it many times, but someone tried to stop her. Genbao even had his classmates block the road. Unexpectedly, she jumped into the river. She had a high fever for seven days but still managed to survive. She's incredibly lucky."

"Alas, after all these years and so many opportunities, you are useless."

"I didn't expect this to happen. They're too greedy. They probably want to keep her and ask for more betrothal money."

"Okay, don't worry. Just insist that you knew nothing. When you're really at your wit's end, I'll have you admitted to a mental hospital. No one can convict a mental patient. Don't be afraid, Auntie will always have your back."

"Okay, thank you, Auntie. So, should I just sit back and do nothing?"

"Yes, don't move. Wait until the other side has played all their cards. If anything unexpected happens, I will take action. Don't be afraid. By the way, you and Duan Cheng?"

"I am pregnant."

"Well, then it's safe. Don't be afraid of anything. But... tell me the truth, this child is really Duan Cheng, right? Are you and Qin Yicheng together?"

"No, he hates me. Every time he gives me money and lets me go."

"That's good. Besides Duan Cheng, you don't have any other men, right?"

"No, no." Yao Jingjing subconsciously grabbed her collar, "Auntie, I'm very sad that you doubt me like this."

"It's not that I doubt you, I'm just afraid that you young people will lose your patience and do something reckless. Okay, as long as this child is Duan Cheng's, I dare to protect you to the end. Go ahead, don't be afraid."

"Thank you, Auntie."

The woman hung up the phone, took out a photo from the table, stared at the man in the photo and sighed.

He silently lit a cigarette and slowly exhaled one smoke ring after another.

One cigarette was not enough, so he took another one and smoked the whole pack. Then he got up, went to the mental hospital, found the intern he was with, and asked him to issue a mental illness certificate for Yao Jingjing.

"Director Xing, when should we write the date?" The young doctor was undecided. This kind of false certificate was not difficult to make, but the details were difficult to grasp.

The woman thought for a moment and said, "Eight years ago."

"Okay." The young doctor quickly wrote the medical record in a flamboyant handwriting. He then asked, "Do I need to prepare one for every year after this? For follow-up visits and so on?"

"Yes, I want a complete set, including outpatient records, medical treatment and medication records." The woman waited patiently. She was afraid that she would not be able to finish writing eight years of medical records until she got off work at noon.

*

Yao Jingjing has thought of all the solutions she can think of. Now she can only go back to the Duan family and cling to Duan Cheng. As for the rest, she will deal with it as it comes.

My mother-in-law Meihong has brought back several sets of used monk's robes, as well as some small sweaters and shoes.

Nowadays, no one would dislike other people's old clothes. Instead, they would treasure them. So Meihong happily gave all these to Yao Jingjing.

"Come, look at how good this material is. It's for your Aunt Xu's grandson. I told her last year to keep it for Duan Cheng. I didn't expect to use it so soon." Mei Hong gestured, and the more she looked at it, the happier she became. She wished that next year would come in the blink of an eye so that she could hold a grandson in her arms.

Yao Jingjing accepted it with a smile, and thanked her repeatedly. She also praised Meihong for being lucky and said that she would definitely be a good grandmother.

Mei Hong was so coaxed that she couldn't close her mouth. She asked Yao Jingjing what she wanted to eat and quickly went to make lunch.

Oh, my daughter-in-law is pregnant, so she must be treated like a baby, right?

Meihong was so happy that she hummed a ballad while cooking, her face flushed with rosy light, as if she had instantly become ten years younger.

Nothing happened until lunch time, and Yao Jingjing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When it was time for dinner, Duan Cheng brought back some sour dates. Seeing her sitting by the window tidying up the children's clothes, his heart softened.

He walked closer, put his arms around her waist from behind, and whispered in her ear, "Jingjing, you're so kind. I've been stuck with the director these past few days. Are you worried about me?"

"Silly boy, of course I'm worried about you. You are the father of my child. Look, your handkerchiefs are all wet with tears. Today, I had to persuade our mother to go with me. Don't be so stubborn in the future. You have to bow your head when you need to, okay?" Yao Jingjing pinched the man's cheek, looking angrily.

Duan Cheng smiled and bit her earlobe: "Okay, I'll listen to you. If you tell me to go east, I won't go west."

Just when they were getting intimate, two unfamiliar voices were heard at the door.

"Hello, we are from the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Does Comrade Yao Jingjing live here?"

"Hello, comrade. I live here. What can I do for her?" Mei Hong was confused and quickly wiped her hands on her apron.

The leader was a policeman about 1.8 meters tall, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and in his thirties.

In his left hand, he flashed his police badge, and in his right, a subpoena: "Hello, someone has reported Yao Jingjing as suspected of murder. Please ask her to come with us."

Mei Hong was anxious and quickly glanced at the summons: "Comrade, is this a mistake? My Jingjing is a good child. She has been with us all day today. She is also newly pregnant and needs to be careful. How could she possibly kill someone? This must be a mistake."

The square-faced man was businesslike: "Mrs. Duan, we are also following the procedures. If Yao Jingjing is really not a problem, we will let her go."

"Then I'll go with her." Mei Hong was extremely anxious. She couldn't bear the thought that her eldest grandson had to suffer such grievances while still in his mother's womb.

The square-faced man frowned, "Mrs. Duan, please don't disrupt our investigation."

Mei Hong was dumbfounded. She had never encountered anything like this in her life. She could only quickly call out to her son: "Ah Cheng, Ah Cheng, come quickly, something happened."

Duan Cheng had heard it, but did not act rashly. He just asked Yao Jingjing what was going on.

Yao Jingjing played dumb and said she knew nothing.

Duan Cheng certainly believed her. She loved him deeply, so how could she possibly lie to him? He smiled and comforted her, "Maybe it's a mistake. Let's go out and take a look."

When they got outside, Yao Jingjing hugged Duan Cheng's arm and hid behind him, looking very pitiful.

Duan Cheng was heartbroken and quickly asked the police what was going on.

The police officer showed his badge and summons: "Please cooperate with us, thank you."

Yao Jingjing didn't believe it at first, until she walked forward timidly and took a look at the content of the summons.

My head buzzed and exploded.

Yao Genbao wasn't dead? How could that be possible? It was such a high mountain, and she saw with her own eyes that Ge Rui pushed him down!

Even if he wasn't dead, how could he climb up with his bare hands?

It’s over. Someone must be targeting her. How come she didn’t notice?

Who is it? Who is it? Who is it!!!

Yao Jingjing was angry and a picture flashed through her mind.

Yes, why did Qin Yicheng come to the compound and be with Xie Chunxing? Also, who is the man next to Xie Chunxing?

Yao Jingjing couldn't figure out a solution for a moment, so she could only shout, "Comrade police, someone has wronged me. I don't even know the people listed here. Comrade police, I..."

As she said this, she fell directly into Duan Cheng's arms, pretending to be fainted very sincerely.

The square-faced man had no choice but to find a female police officer to send the man to the hospital.

After a series of examinations, it turned out that I was indeed pregnant.

The square-faced man was in a lot of trouble. It would be difficult to arrest him normally, so he could only be released on bail or placed under house arrest.

However, everything has to go through the procedures, so we had to arrange for a female police officer to guard the ward first.

When the news reached the Yao family, Yao Weiguo was so angry that he smashed the teacup.

"What a vicious woman! No, I have to find my father quickly and ask him to come forward and kill his own relatives for the sake of justice! This scourge must be arrested! Even if my father really doesn't have time to come, a written application will be fine." Yao Weiguo quickly asked Cui Wen to support him.

Things had come to this point, and it was no longer possible to hide it from Yao Miaomiao. What if she went to the hospital to visit Yao Jingjing without knowing about it?

The consequences are unimaginable.

Yao Weiguo glanced at his mother, who was still in tears, and quickly asked Qin Yicheng to call Yao Miaomiao over. "I'm going to dig up the command center. You try to comfort Miaomiao and tell her not to blow up. We'll talk about everything after I come back."

Qin Yicheng understood and hurried to do it, leaving Yao Jingye to accompany Xie Chunxing.

Yao Jingye is not sure what the attitude towards him is now. In short, he still feels that this risky move is the right one.

Taking advantage of the absence of the younger generation, he played the emotional card with Xie Chunxing: "Xing'er, it was my fault back then that I always borrowed money from you. It was because we had so many children at home that I couldn't help it. You are a big man and don't bear grudges. Since I have always secretly protected Zhizhi, please don't make a fuss with me, okay?"

Xie Chunxing held her daughter's photo in her hand, her tears couldn't stop, and she couldn't hear what he was saying at all.

Yao Jingye had no choice but to continue to make amends: "Xing'er, I was really wrong. I kneel down for you. Can you say a few good words for me in front of Jingzong? No matter how bad I am, I didn't let Yao Erdan and the others really kill Zhizhi. There was a severe drought that year, and every household had no surplus food. Yao Erdan forced the child to eat Guanyin soil. The child refused to eat, so Wang Fang slapped the child in the face. Later, they simply sold the child for 200 yuan and let an agricultural expert take her away. I chased after him and rescued the child. Xing'er, will you forgive me?"

"The expert you are talking about is Jingzong's brother. You might as well not save him. Maybe Zhizhi would have come back long ago." Xie Chunxing is not a fool. A while ago, Old Yao asked his daughter-in-law to ask her what the letter was. Now Yao Jingye mentioned the expert again. Doesn't this make sense?

She was so sad. The girl in the photo was obviously her own daughter. She felt sad when she thought about her child being away from home for 18 years.

Thinking that Jingjing had already known about it, I felt even more heartbroken.

Before today, she still wanted to deceive herself and give Jingjing a chance, but now, everyone in her hometown who knew the truth has come and given her the photos, and Jingjing still wants to kill her own brother...

Every single thing made her despair and heartbroken.

Her poor daughter.

Yao Jingye didn't urge her. He knew that she was soft-hearted and was forced into a corner by the Yao family, so she just moved out on her own and didn't want to break up with them.

This is a good woman and she will definitely forgive him.

He just knelt there, not getting up, with his head down, repenting devoutly.

The excavation command center was bustling with people coming and going.

With the support of Cui Wen, Yao Weiguo jumped over to look for his father. He didn't see his father in the command tent, so he could only continue looking in the crowd.

Soon, the couple saw a little old man in a sweat shirt, who was sweating as he dug a shovel with other soldiers.

Yao Weiguo's tears burst out instantly.

His poor father dedicated his whole life silently and without regrets, but was betrayed by his relatives and his little daughter was stolen.

He really didn't have the courage to speak out such a cruel reality.

But he had to say it!

He doesn't want to see Yao Jingjing go unpunished!

He forced back his tears, took the photo and letter from Cui Wen, and shouted, "Dad, Wei Hua sent the photo."

Yao Jingzong has been staying on the front line during this period, eating and living with the soldiers, and has lost a lot of weight.

When he heard his eldest son's voice, he subconsciously grabbed the towel on his shoulders and wiped the sweat off his face.

He stuck the shovel in the soil and walked over with a smile.

Yao Weiguo hugged him and said, "Dad, calm down. Come, I want to tell you something."

Yao Jingzong supported him and said, "Let's go to the tent. It's a good place to drink some water."

When they arrived at the place, Yao Weiguo was unable to say a word and simply placed the photos and Wei Hua's letter on the table.

The smile on Yao Jingzong's face froze instantly. He grabbed the photo and clenched it tightly...

Men don't shed tears easily. The old father didn't want to be laughed at by the passing soldiers, so he suppressed his sadness and opened the letter beside him with red eyes.

She is indeed a stubborn person, but Wei Hua can persuade her.

Who else can persuade a stubborn person except close relatives and friends?

Wei Hua kept his real name secret and had only known his sister for a short time, so he was obviously not a close friend.

That can only be because of the blood ties in their bones. Even if they don't know each other, they will instinctively take care of each other's feelings.

So, who else could the person in this photo be but his daughter?

Yao Jingzong closed his eyes, his eyes red, took out a piece of letter paper, and quickly picked up the pen.

Although the law will take relatively mild measures against pregnant suspects, if a pregnant woman is likely to continue to engage in illegal and criminal activities that harm society after being released on bail or during residential surveillance, then in theory the pregnant woman can be arrested directly.

However, the conditions are more stringent and the process is more complicated.

Yao Jingzong emphasized the harm done by Yao Jingjing, as she was even able to murder her own brother, and that she was involved not only in murder but also in a girl-swap case, posing a serious threat to society. He hoped that the police would arrest her directly and allow her to be treated leniently in a detention center or prison rather than being released without further delay.

After finishing writing, he folded the letter and told Yao Weiguo: "Give it to Director Jiang of the Public Security Bureau personally."

Yao Weiguo nodded seriously: "Will Political Commissar Duan offer some protection?"

"I will go to my superiors to put pressure on him." Yao Jingzong never suffers in silence. He will do his best to nitpick the legal provisions and make these people pay the price.

Yao Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief: "Dad, I'm going back. I'll leave the photos to you. There are still some at home."

"You must comfort Miaomiao. She has the same bad temper as me. Don't let her get into trouble." Yao Jingzong was worried about the second girl and gave her repeated warnings.

Yao Weiguo understood and made repeated assurances before leaving.

Yao Jingzong took the photo, looked at it again and again, and kept wiping his eyes to prevent tears from falling.

Finally he found a canvas bag, packed it up, and carried it with him so that he wouldn't get soaked by the sweat while digging the hole.

However, there were more important matters at the moment. He sat down, wrote another letter, and called an orderly: "Go, it's urgent, and you must personally deliver it to Commander Gao."

In the hospital, Yao Jingjing was proud of her own cleverness, but also angry that Yao Genbao was still alive.

No, we have to find a way to notify Ge Rui and ask him to find Yao Genbao and silence him.

But what should she do now that she is being watched by a policewoman?

She could only pretend to have a stomachache and try to get rid of the policewoman: "Sister, my stomach hurts so much, will it cause a miscarriage? Sister, can you help me call a doctor?"

The policewoman was not fooled. She stood in the corridor and directly called out to a young nurse who was passing by.

Soon, the doctor came and after a checkup, he found nothing abnormal. He just told Yao Jingjing to have a good rest, relax as much as possible, and not to have any emotional fluctuations.

Yao Jingjing was so angry that she could only wait for the Duan family to find a way to get her out. She was pregnant and they couldn't arrest her directly.

After waiting for two days and one night, she still didn't get any good news and was almost dying of anxiety.

Wang Aiming was also anxious.

In the past two days, he came to Ba Tiao Hutong every day, looking for an opportunity to lure Yao Zhizhi out.

But Yao Zhizhi was surrounded by people during the day, so he couldn't get close to her at all.

The night before yesterday, he found an opportunity and wanted to take advantage of Yao Zhizhi coming out to catch fireflies to lure people away. However, before he could open his mouth, a dog rushed out and barked at him.

Last night he prepared a slingshot and wanted to climb a nearby tree, break the window in the courtyard, and lure Yao Zhizhi out. As a result, the dog came again, barking wildly under the tree, scaring him so much that he quickly ran away.

There is no other way, I can only try to see if there is any chance during the day.

At this moment, he was sneaking around the alley, peeking towards the courtyard, when suddenly a hand appeared on his shoulder.

He was so scared that he turned around suddenly.

When he met Li Wu's serious eyes, he instantly became timid.

He smiled and asked, "Comrade, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Without saying anything, Li Wu twisted his arm and sent him to the police station: "Comrade, I'm reporting this person for accepting bribes. Here's the evidence, please check it."

At the same time, the door of Yao Jingjing's ward was opened.

She sat up with joy, waiting for the Duan family to rescue her, but she didn't expect that what she got was a cold and serious square-faced man.

The square-faced man brought another policewoman with him. After a look, the new policewoman and the remaining policewoman stepped forward and held Yao Jingjing.

The square-faced man flashed his police badge in his left hand and produced an arrest warrant in his right hand, saying, "Take him away!"
