Chapter 42 The Truth



Before, Lin Minjun just suspected that these things were done by Cao Bin. Even if it was not him, he must be behind it.

It is now completely certain that when Erwa's mother was criticized and persecuted, Cao Bin was definitely behind it.

Cao Bin was already confused at this time. He wiped the wine off his face and didn't care about getting angry for a moment. He immediately began to shirk responsibility, "Why are you looking for my life? I didn't do anything."

"You haven't done anything yet, you are just a leaker." Lin Minjun lied to him again.

Without waiting for Cao Bin to continue shirking responsibility, Lin Minjun glanced at him and suddenly said, "Okay, you said it wasn't you, but those young generals wouldn't come to criticize for no reason, there must be someone who leaked the information, this guy is really a wicked person."

"I'm not talking about you, Cao Bin, I'm talking about this ungrateful person who leaked the information." While saying this, Lin Minjun stared at Cao Bin and said, "I guess this ungrateful person's real purpose is not revolution. Maybe he is just a rat shit, trying to sneak in and steal things while criticizing people. After all, Erwa's mother is a young lady who studied abroad. The ungrateful person must think there are good things in here, so he stole them during the chaos. Anyway, no one can tell whether he smashes it or steals it. Am I right?"

"What do you mean? What do you mean by that? Why are you looking at me?" Cao Bin understood the meaning behind the words and asked fiercely. His face turned red and his neck became thick. The veins on his neck were exposed. He stared and shouted, "Who are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about that ungrateful guy." Lin Minjun continued to stare at him.

Cao Bin suddenly swung his fist, reeking of alcohol, "I'll beat you to death!"

"You are not such an ungrateful person. Why did you hit me? Are you going to admit it yourself?"

This sentence angered Cao Bin. His eyes widened even more, his fists clenched tighter, and every corner of the room was filled with his heavy breathing after drinking. He was like a mad bull.

Erwa was really scared. He hadn't thought things would get to this point. He grabbed Lin Minjun's hand and begged, "Sister, don't say it. He will beat you! He will really beat you."

Lin Minjun squeezed his sweaty hand and continued, "Since I'm not talking about you, why did you hit someone? I'm talking about this ungrateful person. This person has such a bad heart. He must be having a hard time now. He deserves it. It's retribution. It's simply..."

Lin Minjun thought about all the insults she had ever said in her life, but she was running out of words. She couldn't think of anything more heart-wrenching.

"You will have a life of no future, you will never be able to get married, and you will be hated by everyone for your whole life. This is retribution." Zhou Ran added.

Cao Bin roared, and under the influence of alcohol, he was about to come up and hit Lin Minjun.

"You fucking say another word?"

He swung his fist and was about to punch Lin Minjun, his fist just a little bit away from Lin Minjun.

But then someone punched him.

Zhou Yong didn't say a word from beginning to end. He just kept eating, eating pig's feet and pork ribs. Mm, they were really delicious.

At this time, he stood up and punched Cao Bin in the stomach, saying in a rough voice, "What are you doing, hitting a female comrade? My brother said that men should not bully women. If you bully others, I will beat you."

This young man almost knocked Cao Bin away with one punch, and then went back to chewing pig's feet. Cao Bin was beaten so hard that he curled up on the ground, with cold sweat on his forehead.

Zhou Ran was also very loyal. Although he didn't know what happened, he could see now that Cao Bin was not a good person.

He stood in front of Lin Minjun and said, "One is a female comrade and the other is a child. If you want to fight, fight with us two brothers first. Do you want to fight?"

Why fight at this time? Cao Bin squatted on the ground, holding his stomach. He was completely sober and couldn't be more sober.

But as the old saying goes, a man who knows the current affairs is a wise man. He pretended to be drunk and stood up staggeringly. "What did I do just now? My head is dizzy. I have to go back to sleep. Where am I?"

He slapped himself hard twice, making his face red, and pretended to be very drunk. He staggered along, holding onto the wall, and returned step by step to the second courtyard. However, as soon as he passed the hanging flower gate and made sure that the people in the house could not see him, he immediately spat under his breath and ran back home.

In the house, Zhou Ran was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Lin Minjun.

"What's going on? I was completely confused by what you said just now. Is it true? Did Cao Bin deliberately bring people here to fight with Erwa's younger brother's mother?" Zhou Ran asked.

Lin Minjun glanced at Erwa and saw him nod, so she told him her previous guess, from suspecting that Cao Bin had stolen things under the pretext of smashing things to the extortion at the Hongmen Banquet. She told him everything from beginning to end.

"Based on Cao Bin's reaction, he must have stolen something. He was not drunk just now, so he must be going home to spend the money. Why didn't you let us chase him just now?" Zhou Ran asked again.

Erwa also said, "Sister, if it's any later he will run away and we won't be able to find any evidence."

Lin Minjun pinched his nose and asked, "Did you think you could do it before? Did things go as smoothly as you thought? Will you do it on your own next time? At least you should discuss it with me, and we can find a solution together."

Erwa glanced outside the door again and became silent. "I don't want him to hate you."

He was now worried about Cao Bin, afraid that he would run away with the things, and he was extremely anxious. If Lin Minjun hadn't held him back, he would have escaped.

"But we agreed to share the good and the bad. Why do you want to bear it alone?" Lin Minjun was still calm, and she said to Erwa, "I have already reported it to the police. Cao Bin can't get away. Go back to bed now. You still have to go to school. The truth will be revealed tomorrow morning."

Erwa knew he was showing off, so he climbed onto the bed with a depressed look and a worried look, and covered himself with the quilt, leaving only his eyes exposed. "I'm not going out. Can I go out tomorrow morning?"

"Can."

What tortured Erwa that night was that he felt regretful and uncomfortable. He shouldn't have done this without telling his sister.

On the other hand, he was worried and listened carefully all night, fearing that Cao Bin had run away.

Alas~

Cao Bin was sober when he was in Erwa's room. When he ran outside, he was completely sober by the cold wind.

He stood at the door of his house for a long time, and suddenly came over.

I'm afraid what I did before has been exposed. I can't stay here any longer. It's time to run away.

When the idea of ​​running away came up, another problem arose.

Did he run away alone, or did he take his whole family with him?

Now you don't need an introduction to travel, you can just buy a train ticket and go. He has money, so he can do anything. He can find a place where no one knows him, change his name, and then he can enjoy a life in heaven with these things.

If I take the whole family with me, it will be much more troublesome. First of all, the whole family has to change their names, and they have to ensure that their true identity is not exposed. The eldest brother who goes to work cannot leave, and there is no time to notify the second brother who lives far away. If there are relatives here, they will be found out sooner or later.

After just a few seconds of hesitation, Cao Bin, the good son of his mother and the dear son of his father, immediately decided to abandon his entire family and abscond with the money.

He quietly pushed the door open and found that everyone in the family was asleep. He dug out a wooden box from the kang in his room, wrapped it in a bundle, and without even bothering to take the clothes, he tiptoed out of the room.

After taking a few steps out, he thought that he was indeed a bit of a beast. After all, once he left, his whole family would suffer.

So Cao Bin turned around and placed a gold bracelet and a small earring next to the eldest master's pillow, then he quietly left home with a large bag of things.

It was chilly outside, the night wind was howling, and crows were calling from nowhere. It was really unlucky.

Cao Bin held the package and cursed all the way as he walked out of the alley. From now on, he was going to enjoy a paradise life.

But just as he was about to step out of the alley, two police officers appeared from nowhere and almost scared him to death on the spot.

The two police officers showed their IDs and said, "Cao Bin, right? We have received reports from citizens that you have stolen a huge amount of property from others. Come back with us now and accept investigation."

"That's impossible. I'm an honest man who has always abided by the law." Cao Bin pretended to be calm and held the package tightly in his hand. "Comrade Public Security, you must have made a mistake. I have never stolen anything."

"Have you ever stolen anything? Come back and tell us." The policeman was still very polite at this time.

But Cao Bin was sweating profusely, his mind was working frantically. He knew that if he followed the police at this time, it would be the end! His life would be ruined! Just like Lin Minjun said, he would be a bachelor for the rest of his life, unable to find a wife, like a rat crossing the street.

He felt as if someone was manipulating him! It was as if the dead mother of Erwa was taking revenge on him!

Cao Bin was almost frightened to death on the spot. Seeing that he was not going to leave, the police approached him and invited him, "Come back with us, comrade. If you didn't steal anything, don't be afraid. We won't do anything to you."

"No, no, no, I won't go." Cao Bin, who had suffered a loss, became even more panicked.

He wanted to make some excuses, but the police had already come up and grabbed his arm. Cao Bin struggled madly, "I didn't steal, you can't arrest me!"

"We didn't arrest you. We just asked you to cooperate with the investigation." The public security comrade said seriously.

Cao Bin fought even harder, "I didn't steal, I won't go."

Suddenly, with a clang, a package fell out of his arms.

Cao Bin's face suddenly turned pale.

Another policeman picked up the package, opened it, and was almost blinded by the gold. "Comrade, you must come with us. Hundreds of grams of gold, as well as various watches and rings, is this something your family can save?"

"Follow us!"

Cao Bin wanted to make a few more remarks, but his legs were weak and his mouth was numb.

He knew that this time he was probably finished.
