Chapter 78 The People's Will
"What's your idea?"
Song Yunqing rolled his eyes and leaned over to whisper something in his ear.
Xiao Jinchuan's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Why has he never thought of this angle? When something happened in the past, he always tried to make up for it and find a way to investigate. No wonder his father said he was stubborn.
"Yunqing, it's great to have you!"
Song Yunqing proudly swung her braid and said, "Of course!"
There are no secrets on the island, and any small incident will be blown far away by the wind.
The next day everyone knew what happened last night.
Some people don't believe it, some gloat over it, and some think it has nothing to do with them and that going out to sea to fish is still the most practical thing.
I originally thought that this matter would be left unresolved.
Unexpectedly, a big news broke out early in the morning, saying that the thing was found and buried under a tree at the entrance of the village, but Xiao Jinchuan was suspended because of his poor supervision.
This news was like a drop of water splashing into a frying pan, instantly causing a strong reaction and the whole village was boiling.
Some were surprised that something was buried under the tree, while others were because Xiao Jinchuan was suspended.
As soon as they got the news, more people ran to the tree to see what was going on.
The members of the inspection team were standing there, and only spoke slowly when they saw that most people had arrived.
"Supplies were stolen from the island. The situation is extremely serious. Xiao Jinchuan, as the head of the regiment, is responsible for oversight. However, since he found the items, he is now suspended from his duties pending an investigation."
Xu Xiujuan and Yao Xinjie were the first to protest, now shouting from the mound, "Deputy Captain Xiao has done his duty for the island. Since he arrived, the road has been opened and water has entered the yard. Now the things are gone, and instead of catching the thief, you've suspended him. What are you thinking?"
"That's right. He's done so many great things for nothing, but now he's being implicated because of someone else's mistakes. There's nothing so unreasonable in this world!"
The inspection team frowned and said, "Who are you? If you keep talking nonsense, you will be punished according to the law!"
"Alright, go ahead and take care of me. You can arrest me, but I have two hungry kids at home. You have to take good care of them!"
"I'm enjoying my life in prison. If you have the guts, arrest me. Even if you do, I'll keep telling you about it every day!"
The inspection team members were helpless. What should they do when they encountered these two scoundrels?
I heard that they were so poor that they had nothing at home. If they were really arrested, they would live a good life, at least they would not have to worry about three meals a day.
There is really no way!
"Those who steal should be hacked into pieces. If caught, their hands should be chopped off. They are so shameless that they bring shame to their ancestors. When they die, they will be struck by lightning in their graves."
"If I give birth to a son without an anus and does all kinds of bad things, God will strike me with lightning!"
"You're just a bunch of freeloaders. It was Deputy Captain Xiao who found the supplies. Not only do you not help, but you're also looking for trouble everywhere."
"You just can't stand seeing things go well on our island? Traitors, bastards, if I knew who did this, I would scold you every day. Keep your guard up and scold me."
"I'll just curse you three times a day, you son of a bitch!"
Yao Xinjie and Xu Xiujuan take turns. When you are tired of scolding, I take over. When I am tired of scolding, you take over.
They scolded so much that no one could say anything back, and some even felt that what they said made sense.
"That's right, this isn't Deputy Captain Xiao's fault. He's done so many good things for our island. You can't just suspend him like that."
"We'll help you catch the thief and find out the truth, but please don't suspend Deputy Captain Xiao!"
"Please, this has nothing to do with Deputy Captain Xiao!"
For a moment, more than half of the people began to plead for Xiao Jinchuan.
Every word is sincere and heart-wrenching.
Everyone who heard it was moved.
Upon hearing the news, Xiao Jinchuan covered his face and remained silent for a long time.
After a long silence, he sighed softly: "How can I be so worthy of this!"
Song Yunqing held his shoulders with both hands and said solemnly and firmly: "You are good, and you are what the people want."
The people's will...
What a beautiful word.
This means that his efforts have paid off and the people on the island can all feel the kindness he has shown them.
There is nothing better in this world.
"Don't go out for the next few days. Pretend to be in a bad mood because you've been suspended. Leave the rest to me."
Only by letting Xiao Jinchuan pretend to be devastated will the people behind the scenes let down their guard.
After Yao Xinjie and Xu Xiujuan's passionate speeches, everyone's attention was aroused.
"You can check my house, I have a clear conscience!"
"Me too. Check my house first. I'll cooperate with you."
"My home, my home!"
Everyone was making a lot of noise, so the inspection team gestured for quiet down.
"The item has been found, so there's no need to investigate further. I hope everyone can calm down. I'm not saying this is Deputy Captain Xiao's fault, but he failed to supervise properly, and he will definitely be punished."
"However, we have also noted your appeals and requests. When I return to report to my superiors, I will consider reducing the punishment for Deputy Captain Xiao, or even eliminating it."
Yao Xinjie looked happy and hugged Xu Xiujuan tightly.
Through their own efforts, they finally did a good thing for Deputy Captain Xiao.
Finally, there was a way to repay Deputy Captain Xiao for his kindness to them.
Everyone's face was filled with uncontrollable joy, except Tian Siyu, whose expression was stiff, as if she had swallowed a dead fly.
After going through so much trouble, in the end there was no punishment. So why did she set up this scheme? Was she trying to tease everyone?
Jin Yu is also an idiot. He buried the body in someone else's yard, but he still asked them to move it.
Suddenly, she thought, could it be that Jin Yu didn't have the ability to sneak into Xiao Jinchuan's house, so he just found a random place to bury the body and lied to her?
When Tian Siyu thought about how she had sacrificed her looks but was still tricked by Jin Yu, she was so angry that she wanted to slap him twice.
She didn't even wait for everyone to finish speaking before going to Jin Yu angrily.
The door was kicked open with a "bang", scaring the dogs in the yard so much that they screamed and ran away quickly.
"Are you still in the mood to tease cats and dogs here?"
Jin Yu had no idea what was happening outside and was still immersed in his fantasy about Song Yunqing's future.
"Why shouldn't I be interested? The great thing you and I have planned is about to be accomplished. Aren't you happy?"
"Happy! I'm so happy I want to slap you twice. Let me ask you, did you really bury those things in Xiao Jinchuan's backyard?"
"You don't believe me?"
"How can I believe you? Those things have been found!"
Jin Yu was delighted: "Found it. Did Xiao Jinchuan get punished?"
"Punishment, what the hell? Those things were found under the tree at the entrance to the village. You didn't put them in there at all. You lied to me, didn't you?"
Jin Yu's face turned ugly: "Are you fucking crazy? I can steal it, so burying something is not that difficult."
"Could it be that those things grew legs and ran under the tree by themselves?"
Jin Yu slammed the table in anger: "How should I know? Stop losing your temper with me. I stole the things and buried them. What the hell did you do? You didn't do anything. What qualifications do you have to blame me?"
Tian Siyu doesn't want to break up this relationship for the time being, and Jin Yu is a useful helper.
She took a deep breath, adjusted her breathing, and suppressed her anger.
"Okay, even if you really buried it, what are you going to do now? You spent so much time and effort to steal the thing, and it seemed like you were about to succeed, but something went wrong at the last moment. Are you willing to accept this?"
Jin Yu was also feeling annoyed, so he kicked the table hard. The old wood creaked, and one of his legs gradually bent, and finally he fell to the ground with a bang.
"How can I accept this? I put so much effort into making this, and they destroyed it for no apparent reason. How can I accept this?"
Originally, he thought that this matter was a sure thing. As long as the things were found in Xiao Jinchuan's house, he wouldn't be able to explain it even if he had ten mouths.
But why the hell did it suddenly change? Who on earth is trying to mess with him?
"Then what's the point of yelling at me? Why don't you think of a solution quickly!"
Jin Yu sat down with his hair all messed up.
"Now that the truth is out, what else can I do? Do you want me to steal again and frame you again?"
"I don't care. I will never allow this matter to be resolved like this. You figure out a way!"
"How about...we write another letter of complaint?"
Tian Siyu was smart. She didn't write the letter of denunciation by hand at all. Instead, she cut out words from the newspaper one by one and pieced them together to form a sentence.
I'm just afraid that someone can find her through her handwriting.
"What else can we say now? Even if we continue to smear ourselves, the evidence is gone. They're not idiots, so how could they possibly believe us?"
The more she spoke, the angrier she became. This was the best opportunity, a good chance to bring down Xiao Jinchuan and Song Yunqing in one fell swoop, but it was wasted in vain!
"This won't work, that won't work either. So tell me, what good ideas do you have? Tell me what you think!"
"Don't ask me, I don't know either!"
Jin Yu looked at her irritably. He not only failed to steal the chicken but also lost the rice. He had no idea who was so capable as to move the things so quietly.
I have never heard of this kind of person in the world!
"As for me, I should write a letter of denunciation, firmly accusing Xiao Jinchuan of doing it. He heard the rumors and secretly moved the items, using the items in the backyard to deceive everyone. Once he has cleared all suspicions, he will let everyone discover the true location of the items. This way, he can completely clear himself of suspicion and portray himself as a victim."
"That way no one will think of him anymore!"
Tian Siyu thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.
"Okay, let's do it. I'll go back and write a letter of complaint!"
But before Tian Siyu could go out, she heard the footsteps of many people outside.
She thought to herself that something was wrong, then tore off her clothes as quickly as possible and fell weakly into the corner.
"Bang!"
The door that Tian Siyu kicked finally fell to the ground.
Jin Yu looked at the person who came and stood up in shock!
