"What are the conditions? You tell me! As long as I don't kill or burn anything, I'll do anything."
Liu Deyou raised his head and looked at Jiang Li with red eyes.
"A person like you has done all kinds of evil things. Are you afraid of murder and arson?"
Jiang Li looked at him with a sneer, and Liu Deyou shook his head.
"I was coerced into doing this. I was on their pirate ship. Actually, I'm not such a bad person at heart."
"I've committed a crime and will be in jail for a long time. I want to go back to see my wife and children as soon as possible, so I don't want to make the same mistake again."
Liu Deyou was a tall and strong man, but at this moment his voice was filled with tears as he begged Jiang Li for help.
"Do you know who killed my father?"
Liu Deyou nodded honestly.
"Has that man been punished now?"
Liu Deyou hesitated for a moment and shook his head.
"People like you usually have some tricks up your sleeve. You should have evidence that he killed my father, right?"
Liu De didn't say anything this time, but his evasive eyes made Jiang Li very sure that he had evidence.
"You can keep silent, and I can also ignore the life and death of your wife and children. After all, my father is dead, and my mother's whereabouts are unknown."
"I'm a person with nothing, so why would I worry about anything? Don't you think so?"
Jiang Li's smile was very bright, but Liu Deyou felt a chill all over his body when he saw it.
"What do you want me to do?"
"Help me make that man get his comeuppance. Pin him down so hard he'll never be able to turn over a new leaf in his life."
Jiang Li said this with gritted teeth, and Liu Deyou suddenly felt a little scared.
"If I do this, my wife and children will really be killed by me. What benefit can I get from helping you?"
"I can help you hide your wife and children. I can have them change their identities and go to a completely new place. I can ensure that no one recognizes them."
"This way, no one will threaten you, and their safety will be guaranteed. Isn't that great?"
Liu Deyou was very excited about Jiang Li’s proposal, and he realized that Jiang Li had the ability to do it.
"What if I help you and you don't do what you promised me?"
"You're only going to spend a few years in jail, not a life sentence, and certainly not going to be executed. You'll be released in a few years. If I lied to you about this, wouldn't you come and take revenge on me later?"
With Jiang Li's guidance, Liu Deyou's ideas finally became clear.
For the safety of his wife and children, he nodded vigorously.
"I can promise you, and I hope you can keep your word."
"Don't worry, I'll help you move your wife and children first, and then have them call you to let you know they're safe. Once that's done, you won't have to worry about anything else."
Jiang Li arranged everything very well, and Liu De nodded vigorously.
"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you. I'm entrusting the safety of my wife and children to you. I'll also do what you tell me to do."
Tears glistened in Liu Deyou's eyes, and there was no trace of the arrogant and domineering look he had when he first met Jiang Li.
Now he placed all his hopes on Jiang Li, only she could help him.
Although he didn't even know Jiang Li's name, for some reason, Liu Deyou felt inexplicably at ease after hearing the plan he proposed.
After all, he is the only one who is willing to do things first and then let him do things.
Instead of some people who always want to get something for nothing, they let him do the job but not only that, they will bite him back later.
"If you can expose more people, I will ask the higher-ups to allow you to atone for your crimes, so that you can be reunited with your wife and children sooner rather than later."
Jiang Li gradually broke down Liu De's defenses until he completely conquered his heart.
"Is there really such a thing as redemption?"
Liu Deyou still had some distrust in the Public Security Bureau, so he spoke uncertainly.
The reason is that he does not understand the law. Many of them do not understand the law, so they think it is better to have less trouble than more, and many things are concealed by them.
"Of course, I have a close relationship with the Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau, Zhou Xinming. If I intercede for you and you can make meritorious contributions, I guarantee you can get your sentence reduced!"
“How much can I reduce?”
Liu Deyou was persuaded. His eyes became brighter and brighter as he quickly evaluated this possibility.
"The more people you expose, the more your sentence will be reduced. Don't let them get a heavier sentence. The faster your sentence is reduced, the faster it will be reduced. If you're worried about your safety after you're released from prison, I can find someone to change your name and let you reunite with your wife and children."
"I promise that you will remain anonymous for the rest of your life. No one will know where you are, and you won't be able to find your place even if you want to get rich quickly."
Liu Deyou's parents are both dead, and he has no contact with his brothers and sisters. Apart from his wife and children, he doesn't need to care about the life and death of others.
It is too painful for him to go to jail for 7 and a half years. When he comes out of jail, his wife may have run away and his children may be chasing someone else and calling him dad.
It’s not that Liu Deyou hadn’t thought about this possibility, but he was still a little scared when he thought about exposing so many things.
He was afraid that he couldn't handle it, and even more afraid of getting into trouble. If that happened, it wouldn't just be a matter of going to jail, he might even lose his life.
Desperadoes like Liu Deyou are most afraid of death and cherish their lives the most, so they are particularly afraid of taking risks.
Seeing that Liu Deyou was still hesitating, Jiang Li immediately added fuel to the fire.
"They've harmed so many people, shouldn't they pay the price? You're doing this for justice and doing good things. This will bring more blessings to your wife and children, and their lives will get better and better in the future."
"You've been in jail for so long just to protect some unrelated people. Have you ever thought about your wife's hard work? She's so young, taking care of two children. Doesn't she feel lonely in the dead of night?"
"She's a woman, supporting this family with her fragile shoulders. Do you know how difficult it is? Now that such a good opportunity is before you, don't you cherish it? Or do you simply not love them? Do you just want to hide away from Lao Li and not care about their lives?"
Every word Jiang Li said was heartbreaking. Liu Deyou's psychological defenses completely collapsed and he suddenly burst into tears.
"I don't want to go to jail! I'll be in jail for seven and a half years. By the time I get out, my kids will be grown up and might not even recognize me!"
"I don't want to leave them! I want to stay with them too! But they are all evil people. The consequences of offending them are very serious. I'm afraid of retaliation after I get out. I'm even more afraid of death!"
Jiang Li saw Liu Deyou crying and knew that she could no longer hold on.
Jiang Li continued his efforts, trying to completely remove his last bit of defense, so that Liu Deyou would stop struggling.
