Chapter 156 The Truth
Wu Zhiyong shook his hand holding the cigarette violently, and the ash fell onto his hand, burning him and making him shudder.
"Lying? I...I didn't. How dare I lie in front of you?"
The more he said this, the more Fu Ci Yan could see that he was guilty.
"What was that man's name? How much did he give you?"
Wu Zhiyong: "How would I know his name? If I knew, I probably wouldn't be able to leave Kyoto alive. He... gave each of us 200,000 yuan."
Two hundred thousand yuan twenty years ago was worth much more than it is now.
Fu Ciyan sneered:
"Are you sure? Since I can find out what you are doing now, do you think I can't find out what you were doing in the past?"
Wu Zhiyong lowered his head guiltily, looking around but not saying anything.
He was gambling that Fu Ci Yan was cheating him.
Fu Ciyan's eyes became increasingly cold:
"After you left Kyoto, you hid in your hometown for a year, then went to Shenzhen to do business and lost nearly half a million. If you really had half a million, why would you still go to Kyoto to work as a security guard? Wu Zhiyong, if you don't tell the truth now, it will be too late."
"I...I said."
Wu Zhiyong's face turned pale, knowing that he could no longer hide the truth.
"Actually... at that time... they did give me 200,000 yuan, but I was cautious."
Fu Ciyan: "You have evidence in your hand."
His words were very firm, which was why he came all the way to Shenzhen to meet Wu Zhiyong.
Wu Zhiyong seemed to have let go of his psychological burden and looked much more relaxed.
He sat in his boss chair and lit another cigarette for himself.
His voice was a little hoarse amidst the smoke:
"In fact, I have some friendship with the child of the owner Wen Mingde. She was well-educated. I still remember her nickname, Xixi. Every time she sees me, she calls me brother.
Actually, I originally had a younger sister, but she had a serious kidney disease. I started working before I even finished my studies just to save money for her medical treatment.
Nostalgia welled up in Wu Zhiyong's eyes. His sister was born unexpectedly, and at that time, family planning was implemented and having a second child was not allowed.
But when the child came, the parents were reluctant to abort it, so they gave birth to the child in hiding.
Because of this sister, his family paid a lot of fines.
But his sister is very cute and always pesters him, and he spoils her.
His sister was only six years old when she fell ill. The high medical expenses drained the family's bankrupt, so he dropped out of school and went to Kyoto to work.
He didn't make much money in the first two years, but later he was introduced to Huachun Mansion, an upscale residential area with a good salary, which gave him some hope.
He was deeply impressed by Wen Nanxi, who was lively and cute, kind and sensible, just like his sister.
Because of this reason, he liked Wen Nanxi very much and often brought her lollipops.
Wen Nanxi would sweetly say thank you to her brother and share her snacks with him.
"I wasn't really lying, there were just some things I didn't tell him. Liu Fei asked me to let him go, but I was still worried, so I found an excuse to follow him.
I arrived a little late. When I arrived at the Wen family's door, the three kidnappers had already tied up He Wanfeng.
I hid in the corner and heard their conversation. They were calling Wen Mingde."
Wu Zhiyong recalled these scenes, and his expression changed slightly:
"I heard the three men ask, 'I've already captured your wife, and your daughter is hidden. Do you want to kidnap her as well? If you do, you'll have to pay extra money.'"
Fu Ciyan's face darkened.
Although he had long suspected Wen Mingde, he still felt sorry for Wen Nanxi when he thought that it was Wen Mingde who did all this.
Her father was the culprit who killed her mother.
They are relatives, but more importantly, they are enemies.
"Later, they seemed to have a quarrel over the price. The kidnappers didn't even bother with Shang Xixi and took He Wanfeng away."
He sighed:
"Boss, you should understand now that this is someone's family matter."
Fu Ciyan's face was gloomy:
"Someone's dead. Are you sure this is a family matter?"
Wu Zhiyong opened his mouth, but was speechless.
"Indeed, that old bastard Wen Mingde is a piece of shit, but I'm just a security guard. What can I do? You know, I have no power or influence. Even if I testify in court, no one will believe me."
Fu Ciyan snorted coldly, ignoring his attempt to shirk responsibility:
"Get to the point."
Wu Zhiyong stood up, looked at the old clock in the house, moved a stool and stepped on it.
This clock looks old and even the time is not very accurate.
"At the time, I bought a cell phone so I could keep in touch with my sister. I recorded everything the three kidnappers said and exchanged it for 800,000 yuan. Actually, they only wanted to give me 100,000 yuan at first, but as you know, kidney disease is a bottomless pit. Unless I get a kidney transplant, 100,000 yuan is not enough."
Fu Ci Yan understood this. For rich people, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.
But what about ordinary people? Even a penny can make a hero fall.
Kidney disease requires a series of follow-up treatments, and 100,000 yuan is not enough to cover them.
Wu Zhiyong took off the clock. There was a groove on the wall. He fumbled for a while and took out a small memory card.
"My sister had already found a kidney at the time, and as long as she had the money, she could have the surgery. I had no choice but to take this path. I had done a lot of research, and even with a kidney transplant, there was a possibility of rejection. I wasn't sure if 800,000 yuan was enough, so I kept a backup plan."
Wu Zhiyong struggled to get down from the stool and placed the memory card in front of Fu Ciyan:
"I had two memory cards at the time, and I saved two copies of the video. The one I gave them has been destroyed, and I kept this one. I thought that if I needed money later, I could ask them for more.
Maybe it was fate that I never used this memory card, and my sister died before I could return."
He lost his sister and his conscience.
It also caused a little girl to lose her mother and her originally happy life.
After he returned to his hometown, he learned that his sister had passed away and was depressed for a while.
In addition, he knew that what he was doing was illegal, so he didn't dare go out to work.
He went to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange only after the storm had died down. He originally wanted to learn how to invest like the rich, but ended up meeting unreliable people and lost all his 500,000 yuan.
Later he opened this repair shop, which he has been running ever since.
Sometimes he would wake up in the middle of the night and feel guilty.
If he had known that his sister could not be saved, he would not have taken the 800,000 yuan, which would have made him feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Yu Zhao took the memory card, confirmed that there was no problem, and nodded slightly at Fu Ci Yan.
Having obtained the evidence, he felt that the trip was worthwhile and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you remember what the person who gave you hush money looked like?"
