Chapter 228 There is another one

Tao Cong originally planned to make some excuses, but seeing the posture and eyes of the policeman in front of him, he felt a little scared.

"I... just wanted to scare them." Tao Cong said with a wry smile.

"Scare them? Do you know that this is illegal? If the snake you threw bites someone, you will be guilty of intentional injury and will go to jail!" Zhou Yi said seriously.

When Tao Cong heard he was going to jail, his legs went limp and he sat down on the ground, saying in horror: "I... I didn't know I was going to jail. Officer, I was wrong. I will change in the future."

Zhou Yi looked at him and found his expression a little strange, because people who had been in prison were usually a bit slick and would not react like this when told that they were going to jail.

"Whether you go to jail or not depends on the motive and the consequences of this incident. Confess your case first, and then come with me to the police station to record your statement. If the circumstances aren't serious, you don't have to go to jail."

"Really?" Tao Cong was overjoyed and stood up with the help of the wall.

He said that when he was in junior high school, he had liked Han Jiajia. He had written love letters to her, pulled out the valve core of her tire, and blocked her on the road to harass her.

One summer vacation, he was laughed at by his classmates for being a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, so he made a bet that he could kiss Han Jiajia.

So he foolishly ran to Han Jiajia's house to find her, but he couldn't even get in the door.

Unwilling to give up, he discovered that the Han family's patio was only surrounded by wooden boards and not sealed, so he wanted to climb over the wall into the house.

As a result, he was caught by Han Weimin who was returning home for something. Han Weimin mistook him for a thief, kicked him down, and then picked up a broom and chased him for three blocks.

A group of classmates who had made a bet with him witnessed the entire process of him being chased and beaten, which completely humiliated him.

He swore that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge, and sooner or later he would teach Han Weimin a lesson.

But the idea is good, the reality is cruel.

After graduating from junior high school, I started working early because I was not a good student and my family was poor.

But he had no skills and no abilities, so in the end he could only do hard labor and work on construction sites with others.

Although he has grown taller, he is darker than before due to years of hard labor.

Moreover, you can't just move bricks wherever you want at the construction site. You have to follow the foreman and the construction site. You have to be wherever the construction site is.

After all, what has always been in short supply is labor.

His family always said that after he worked for another two years and saved enough money, they would find him a wife and let him live a peaceful life.

This time I went back to Hongcheng because the construction site where I had worked for more than half a year had finished. Now that I had no work, I came back for a blind date.

As a result, when he got off the train that day, he saw Han Jiajia on the platform at a glance and was immediately ecstatic because he found that Han Jiajia was even prettier than when she was in junior high school.

I just walked up to him and said hello, and portrayed myself as doing business outside.

After I came back, I had dinner and drinks with my former junior high school classmates and mentioned Han Jiajia. As a result, my classmates said that he hasn't changed after all these years and he just wants to be a toad eating swan meat. Have you forgotten that Han Jiajia's father chased him for three blocks?

It was this sentence that once again aroused Tao Cong's hatred towards Han Weimin.

Generally speaking, people with low education and low culture are particularly concerned about the so-called face issue and are easily instigated to do some extreme behaviors.

The key is that people in this group particularly like to instigate others, and if you don't dare to do it, they will call you a coward.

To sum it up in one sentence: It’s fun to watch the fun.

Tao Cong therefore decided to take revenge on Han Weimin. After much thought, he finally came up with this vicious trick.

At first, I threw dead mice, but found that it didn't seem to have any effect, so I got a snake to scare them.

But the fire department arrived soon and caught the snake.

Hiding in the crowd of onlookers, he felt that there was no point in doing this.

He followed Han Jiajia today simply because he had nothing to do and was bored, so he would walk around her neighborhood every day, hoping to run into her by chance.

Finally, I encountered it.

As to whether he wanted to rape Han Jiajia, he flatly denied it.

Zhou Yi felt that this person was indeed not very smart. He could feel it from his words and actions. It was not a problem of IQ, but simply that his brain was not working well.

"Tao Cong, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? On the one hand, you like Han Jiajia, but on the other hand, you threaten their whole family. Have you ever thought that by doing this, Han Jiajia will only hate you more?"

Zhou Yi’s words made Tao Cong stunned for a moment, with an expression of “Fuck, that seems to be the truth” on his face.

Seeing that he was still immersed in shock and unable to digest it, Zhou Yi called the local police station. Tao Cong's behavior was clearly illegal and criminal, and the police station needed to handle it properly.

Since there were no casualties, he was basically sentenced to ten days' detention.

The police from the nearby police station arrived five minutes later. Zhou Yi, who was in plain clothes, showed his ID and explained the situation.

The police officer nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. We will go back and take a record of his interrogation, and then educate and detain him."

When Tao Cong heard that he was going to be detained, he immediately shouted anxiously: "Didn't you say that I wouldn't have to go to jail?"

Zhou Yi smiled: "Yes, imprisonment is imprisonment, detention is detention, they are two different things."

"You..." Tao Cong was angry but dared not say anything.

"By the way, I almost forgot to ask. Tao Cong, which city were you imprisoned in before?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Go to jail? What kind of jail?" Tao Cong was puzzled.

"Didn't your junior high classmates say you were in jail for theft?"

"Damn it, these bastards are talking nonsense. The one in jail is Tao Cong from Class 4, and I'm from Class 2!" Tao Cong said angrily. It was obviously not the first time he had encountered such a thing.

Same name and surname?

This is not impossible. After all, unless the surname and given name are rare, there is a possibility that there will be people with the same name in a school.

"Comrade police officer, I have a question."

"What's the problem?"

"How did you get behind me in the bathroom just now?" This question has been bothering him.

"Who told you I went into the toilet? I went into the duty room." Zhou Yi pointed to a small room between the men's and women's toilets.

After the police from the police station took Tao Cong away, Zhou Yi didn't care about him anymore. Anyway, the police station would contact Han Weimin later to confirm the information.

He called Xu Junjie, and this guy said last night that he was not in a hurry to find a job now, and would wait until he got his diploma at the end of June and then take it easy for a few months.

When Xu Junjie heard Zhou Yi asking him for Cheng Jiaojiao's contact information, he gave it to her without hesitation and without asking why.

Then Zhou Yi called Cheng Jiaojiao and asked her if there were two students named Tao Cong in their junior high school class.

Cheng Jiaojiao wasn't sure and said she would ask her former classmates and then call him.

When Zhou Yi returned to the Municipal Bureau, Cheng Jiaojiao called him.

"Zhou Yi, I've asked around, and there's indeed another Tao Cong in Class 4. Jia Jia and I are in Class 3, and the Tao Cong you mentioned last night is in Class 2."

"Have you found out where Tao Cong from Class 4 is now?"

"I don't know where he is now. After all, we didn't keep in touch with our junior high classmates that often. But the classmate I asked said that Tao Cong dropped out of technical school halfway through. I don't know who he went to Luohe with."

"Luo He?" Zhou Yixin said, isn't this a coincidence?

After thanking Cheng Jiaojiao, Zhou Yi was about to hang up the phone when Cheng Jiaojiao hurriedly asked, "Hey, Zhou Yi, what do you think of Jia Jia?"

"She's quite reserved and sensitive. I suggest you introduce her to a cheerful and optimistic guy who isn't too busy at work and has more time to spend with her."

Cheng Jiaojiao on the other end of the phone was stunned: "You mean... you two are not suitable?"

Zhou Yi knew that Xu Junjie and his wife had good intentions, and Han Jiajia was indeed very pretty, but he had no feelings for her and just wanted to save her entire family's lives.

So it is best to make it clear as soon as possible to avoid misunderstandings.

"Well, my work is so busy that I have to work day and night. Who can stand it? And I face murders and criminals all day long. I feel very depressed. I have to find someone with a strong, cheerful and optimistic personality, who is full of hope for life." Zhou Yi said with a smile.

Cheng Jiaojiao sighed, lamenting that the two of them were not destined to be together, and then hung up the phone.

Captain Liu and Lu Zhengfeng from Luohe returned yesterday afternoon. Yu Changshun and his team interrogated him, but because Wang Hongna's case had nothing to do with Yu Changshun, Yu Changshun could only be questioned as an indirect related person.

However, they came more because Long Zhiqiang was from Luohe. The main culprit of such a serious series of cases came from their place, so the local leaders had to take some blame, and it was normal to send people here.

Zhou Yi called the Luohe City Criminal Investigation Detachment, and the person who answered the phone happened to be Lu Zhengfeng.

Lu Zhengfeng was very excited and said that it was a rare trip to Hongcheng, and he didn't have time to ask Zhou Yi for more advice.

After a few polite words, Zhou Yi got straight to the point and asked him to help check a man named Tao Cong, whose registered residence was in Hongcheng and who was around 23 years old. He wanted to find out whether he had a prison record. Other detailed information would be even better.

Lu Zhengfeng agreed readily and said that he would give Zhou Yi feedback as soon as possible.

In the afternoon, Wu Yongcheng called back and said that the provincial department attached great importance to the Long Zhiqiang series of cases. Since it involved multiple cases in multiple provinces and cities, all parties planned to set up a joint investigation team to follow up on the subsequent case situation.

I guess I will have to stay in the provincial capital for a while, so that they can have a good rest during this time.

As soon as Zhou Yi heard it, he knew that Wu Yongcheng would probably not be able to come back for a while, because after the public security organs completed the investigation, they needed to transfer the case to the procuratorate for review and prosecution, and finally the procuratorate would bring public prosecution to the court.

Before transferring the case to the procuratorate, the public security organs need to prepare complete archival materials, evidence and prosecution opinions.

Logically speaking, Wu Yongcheng doesn't need to worry so much about routine cases. If he does it himself, he can just write a closing report. If he is lazy, he can just have his subordinates write it and sign it.

However, this series of cases is too large, and it has reached the point where multiple provinces and cities have joined forces. In front of a large number of leaders, Wu Yongcheng can only be the one to take charge.

Wu Yongcheng joked on the phone, "You guys keep an eye on Zhou Yi. Don't let him wander around outside. If he does, something bad will happen."

Everyone burst into laughter. As soon as Wu Yongcheng finished speaking, Zhou Yi's mobile phone rang.
