Even though Zhang Cai was scared inside, he still looked very honest on the surface: "I did sell the snake, and the money... I also hid the money outside. I can take you to see my hidden money.
But I can’t let my wife know. At least I don’t remember who I sold it to. The man I bought it from stopped me on the street. He drove a small car and didn’t look like he was from our town.
Xiao Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Take us to see the money you hid."
Zhang Cai took Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhou to a peach tree in front of his house, dug up the soil, and found a clay pot inside. Inside the pot was a small cloth bag containing more than ten yuan.
It is impossible to tell whether the money he earned from selling snakes is in it, but it also shows that he did hide money.
He said that a passerby bought the snake, which is an explanation, but he never told the truth from the beginning. The first explanation was that his family ate the snake.
But there's nothing we can do if he doesn't admit it.
Xiao Zhang said to Xiang Nan, "We've already interrogated him, but he doesn't admit it. It seems we need to find another way to deal with him. Let's check if any of the neighbors saw him committing the crime."
Xiangnan smiled and said, "No hurry, no hurry. After asking so many questions, drink some ice jelly first. It's hot, let's go to my house, let's use the fan, have a cigarette and take a break.
Bring Zhang Cai with you, I have a plan."
Xiao Zhang trusts Xiangnan quite a bit. She was the one who brought down the municipal party secretary, so she must have a way to deal with a farmer.
Xiao Zhang took Zhang Cai into the car and went to Xiangnan's house together.
In the car, Zhang Cai kept asking nervously, "Where are you taking me? I...I haven't done anything wrong. You can't just take me away..."
"We will make a conclusion after we have investigated whether you have committed any crime. Now we will take you to continue the investigation."
The police car stopped at the door of Xiangnan's house. When she got home, she went straight to her husband and said, "Brother Huo, you have to help me.
Xiao Zhang and the others didn't get any results, but he also suspects that Zhang Caifang put the snake there. Do you have a way to make him admit it?"
Huo De put down the book in his hand, with a smile on his handsome face: "Finally, I can be of use to you. Bring the man here, and I promise he will confess."
Xiangnan asked Xiao Zhang to bring Zhang Cai into the room, then said with a smile: "Let my husband talk to him for a while, I'll take you to the living room to rest."
Xiao Zhang had met Hood before. This guy... might really have a way. His aura was very powerful and most people would be afraid of him when they saw him.
When Zhang Cai heard the sound of the door closing, he looked at the only person in the room with some fear. His face was pale. Who was this person? He looked very tough. It didn't even feel hot in the summer.
"Who are you?" Zhang Cai asked sternly but weakly.
"Xiangnan's husband." Huo De looked at him coldly, as if he was looking at a dead person.
He placed his officer ID on the table and said, "I am a soldier."
Zhang Cai shouted, "So what do you think of being a soldier? Soldiers can lock people up! Let me out!"
"Zhang Cai, do you know how to deal with dishonest prisoners in the army?"
Huo De looked up at him, his eyes flashing with a dangerous and deadly light, as if he could kill Zhang Cai with just one look.
Zhang Cai was a country farmer, so how could he dare to look directly into such eyes? He was trembling in his heart, but with a stern face he asked, "I'm not afraid of you! What do you want to do?"
"My leg was injured because I was catching a traitor. The traitor had an accomplice in the countryside. I lived in the countryside to catch his accomplice.
Zhang Cai, you look very much like that traitor's accomplice. I'll have the police send you to the army as a traitor's accomplice. Do you know what you're going to face?"
"You...you're talking nonsense. I don't know any traitors!"
"It's not up to you to decide. If I say you are, then you are. First, lock you up in the army and use red-hot iron sheets to burn your face. Then they pour salt water and honey on it and let bugs crawl on it.
If you don't confess, you will be whipped with a whip dipped in salt water.
The army has plenty of ways to deal with prisoners who don't confess."
Zhang Cai's hands began to tremble when he heard this: "No... You can't do this... You're framing me, deliberately setting me up!"
“Since I suspect it’s you, I have the right to arrest you and release you after you’ve cleared your name. You might just be a living dead.
Zhang Cai, you are not qualified to bully my Xiangnan, do you understand?"
Zhang Cai was shaking all over after hearing Huo De's cold voice.
"I'll give you one minute to think about it. After that, I won't give you a chance to regret it."
Hodder picked up the watch on the table and took a look at it.
Then he ignored Zhang Cai and picked up the book to read. He just sat there, but the aura that had just been released still oppressed Zhang Cai.
Zhang Cai felt threatened and his body was trembling. He could lie in front of the police, but he didn't dare to lie in the army.
As soon as he entered the army, he was beaten with salt water, whipped with fire and burned with fire. He had seen it on the black and white TV at home. It was very painful and cruel.
"One minute is up, Xiao Zhang, come in and take him away. I just interrogated him and found that he might be an accomplice of the traitor. Please send him to the army.
I will write a letter and ask my comrades in the army to treat him well."
The door was opened at this time, and Xiao Zhang shouted from outside: "Come out! Take him away."
Zhang Cai was so frightened by this shout that he knelt on the ground: "I am not an accomplice, I am not! I'm telling you... I was the one who let the snake bite Aunt Jiang, right at the corner, and I threw the shoe at her feet.
The snake had a disease in its mouth. I checked it out. Although it's a non-venomous snake, the disease can cripple a person."
"Why did you do this?" Xiao Zhang came in and grabbed him out: "Tell me clearly, do you have any accomplices? Are you the mastermind or is there someone else?
If you reveal your accomplices and the mastermind, you can mitigate your crime and receive the lightest sentence."
Zhang Cai went in and never came out. A group of villagers gathered outside Xiangnan's house to watch the fun. They didn't dare to follow the police in to investigate the case, and they just talked about it outside.
"What's going on? Was it Zhang Cai who bit Aunt Jiang? Yang Shengli doesn't look like he's in trouble."
"Yang Shengli's face turned pale when she saw the police coming. I thought something must be wrong. If it wasn't, she would have screamed louder than anyone else."
"Where's Feng Mingli? He was just yelling at Xiang Nanke to die, but now he's gone."
Feng Mingli had already rushed to Li Lanjiang's house. She said anxiously, "The police are here, Sister Li, Xiangnan is really here this time. The police will find out the truth!"
"Why are you panicking? The investigation has already led to you. Zhang Cai and Yang Shengli did it themselves. They know best what the consequences will be if they admit it.
There is no way they would admit it, because if they don’t admit it, there is no evidence.”
Li Lanjiang was very calm. Zhang Cai and Yang Shengli would have to be very stupid to admit that he was going to be put in jail.
Even if they admitted it, it wouldn't be her fault. She just said it casually and didn't let them do it.
Feng Mingli was comforted by her words: "You are right, they probably won't admit it. Even if they do, it has nothing to do with me. What should I be afraid of?"
She just said that Xiangnan was an unlucky person. Why can't she let people say it? It's not against the law.
"Don't panic. Now the villagers basically believe that she is an unlucky person. Let's see how she can stay here. Sooner or later, she will get out of Daxiang Village."
