Everyone was woken up by a loud noise in the middle of the night.
The lanterns in the shack where Lu Xiao and his crew were were lit, and everyone sat up sleepily. They saw the team leader and the construction site leader standing at the door of the shack with a bruised face and an unrecognizable man, who was pointing inside and shouting.
"It was Lu Xiao who hit me. You must stand up for me. This dangerous person must be severely punished, otherwise none of us will be safe."
When they heard the voice, some people recognized the other person as Du Zhiqing from the Red Star Brigade. Most of the people in the shack were members of the Red Star Brigade, and they immediately became dissatisfied.
They are so tired from work during the day and finally get a rest at night, but I still have to disturb their sleep.
"Du Zhiqing, are you mistaken? Lu Xiao has been sleeping in the shack the whole time and hasn't gone out. Where would he go to beat you?"
"I can testify to this. Brother Xiao and I were sitting next to each other. He hasn't moved since we went to bed last night," Li Ergou stood up immediately.
"You're all in the same group, so of course you're biased towards him. I was beaten after dinner and was knocked unconscious until now. He's been sleeping here the whole time, but that doesn't prove he didn't beat anyone before going to bed."
We must get to the bottom of this matter today. It would be best if Lu Xiao was charged with a crime: intentional homicide, intentional assault, or a dangerous element endangering society. It doesn't matter which one it is. It would be best if he was sentenced and put in jail.
Du Jiaming was really scared. When he was woken up by the cold just now, it was pitch black all around with only the howling north wind. It made him even more frightened than the last time he was stuffed in the toilet.
The words "kill him silently and never let him return to the city" completely broke down his inner defenses.
His dreams, his ambitions, everything he has is based on returning to the city. He can't do anything without returning to the city.
Lu Jie uttered a sigh, "I can testify to this. Lu Xiao was always with us during meals, and we always peed together. Du Zhiqing, you wouldn't be dissatisfied and deliberately slander us just because we said a few words to you during the day, right? Leader, I have the most say in this. Today, our team worked a little slowly and was called out by the team leader. Maybe our attitude at the time was not very good, which made Du Zhiqing lose face. But God is our conscience, we are all doing this for Du Zhiqing's own good. When no other team accepted him, our team accepted Du Zhiqing with an inclusive heart. Usually, our team is the pioneer and the advanced. Since Du Zhiqing joined our team, we have lost the opportunity to be advanced. Today, he was called out by the team leader. Even though we complained, we didn't mean to abandon Du Zhiqing. Why did Du Zhiqing still hold a grudge?"
The leader was also unhappy about being woken up in the middle of the night. In such a cold day, who wouldn't want to stay in bed?
After hearing this, he turned around and asked the team leader Wang Dazhuang next to him, "Is what they said true? Did you criticize their team today?"
Wang Dazhuang nodded. "I did say a few words. Some people are really unreasonable."
He doesn't need to mention any of these people by name, everyone present knows who he is talking about.
Du Jiaming immediately quit, "I have been working hard, and they are deliberately making things difficult for me."
Wang Dazhuang felt he was making a specious argument. "Du Zhiqing, let's not talk about work. Almost everyone here is a member of the Red Star Brigade."
The implication is that you don't have any idea of how to work? If someone can even take leave and slack off during the autumn harvest, how can he claim to be working hard?
Du Jiaming choked again. It’s okay if he didn’t do the work, it was Lu Xiao who beat him.
The leader looked at Lu Xiao, who had been silent. He remembered this guy. Whenever he inspected the construction site, this young man worked the hardest. Looking at his size, he knew he was a good worker.
"What do you say? Now some people say you assaulted a comrade and threatened the personal safety of others."
Lu Xiao sat there as if he hadn't woken up yet, looking a little lazy. "I didn't, I didn't do anything."
Du Jiaming wanted to say something, but the leader spoke impatiently, "That's enough. We've been busy all day, and we still have to work tomorrow. It's time to sleep. Don't disturb everyone else's rest."
Turning to look at Du Jiaming, although it was a bit horrible, I still have to say what needs to be said.
"Comrade, you should always bring evidence to bear. It's possible that we might encounter one or two criminals in this desolate place. We can't just make random accusations based on personal grudges. Go back and have a good rest. Be careful at night and avoid going to deserted places. If you suspect someone again, bring out the evidence first."
Evidence, evidence. If he had evidence, would he have allowed Lu Xiao to jump to this point?
Du Jiaming felt a surge of hot blood in his chest and a fishy and sweet taste in his throat.
Look at the people present here, they all look like they are enjoying the show. They clearly know the truth of the matter, but no one is willing to help him.
A tiger on the plain is bullied by a dog.
…………………………
It was located in a residential compound in Kyoto. It was already late, but the lights were still on in the house.
When Jiang Hanting returned to the bedroom after finishing his work in the study, he saw his wife sitting at the head of the bed, staring blankly.
She didn't eat dinner well today and kept feeling like this. Jiang Hanting sighed and walked over to take the letter from her hand.
Shen Meijuan came back to her senses and looked at her husband, her tone filled with worry. "I said Wanwan must have encountered some insurmountable obstacles by bowing to us, and you said no. If she had any other options, could she marry another man quietly? This is a serious matter."
When she received the letter during the day, she thought it was from her daughter. It had not been long since the last letter, and she was still happy.
When they opened it, it turned out to be a letter from Du Jiaming, which said that Jiang Wanwan had gotten married in the countryside.
They got married without a word, without even notifying their biological parents? She hadn't even mentioned it in her last letter, and she had the tact to talk to them so much.
