Chapter 159 The mastermind behind this incident is definitely Shang Ruolian
Shang Ruonan didn't give up, but when she saw Qin Gongan's dark face, she swallowed back what she wanted to say.
Father Zhou stepped forward, glanced at Shang Ruonan angrily, then asked Qin Gongan with a smile: "Comrade Gongan, I wonder what mistake my daughter-in-law made?"
Qin Gongan knew that Zhou's father worked in the town, so he gave him some face and briefly recounted what had happened.
After listening to Qin Gongan's story, Zhou's father and Zhou Qingmin looked very unhappy.
Zhou Qingmin raised his hand and slapped Shang Ruonan hard: "Have you been blinded by lard? Are you willing to do anything at the instigation of Shang Ruolan?"
Shang Ruolan originally saw Zhou Qingmin coming with Zhou's father, and thought that they were definitely preparing to rescue them, so she didn't say anything.
However, although he beat the eldest sister, his words implied that he was putting all the blame on her.
"Brother-in-law, you can't say that, can you? It was my eldest sister who came up with the idea, and she was the one who went in to look through the things. Why do you say I instigated her?"
Zhou Qingmin glared at her fiercely. "If it wasn't you who instigated this, who else could it be? Ruonan was fine at home. It was only because you came home to look for her last night that she went back to Sihe Village with you today."
After Zhou Qingmin finished speaking, he looked at Qin Gongan and said, "Comrade Gongan, I can testify that the mastermind behind this incident is definitely Shang Ruolian. She came to my house to look for Shang Ruonan last night, and it must be because of this incident."
Seeing Zhou Qingmin, an outsider, pointing fingers, Qin Gongan immediately became unhappy: "Comrade, as a public security officer, I have already examined the entire case. Please do not interfere with my work. Otherwise, please leave now."
Seeing his son being humiliated, Zhou's father quickly stepped forward to act as a peacemaker.
"Comrade Public Security, please don't be angry. Qingmin is young and impulsive. Can you please excuse me for a moment?"
Qin Gongan reluctantly followed Zhou's father to the side.
Zhou's father handed him a small note.
"Public Security Officer Qin, take a look. This was written by your director himself."
Qin Gongan held the small note, and his displeasure was quickly written on his face.
"Did you know these two were convicted of theft? Furthermore, there's evidence, both witness and evidence. This is a serious matter. You went to our director to plead for mercy. Does he know the details of the case?"
Not to mention Zhou's father, even Zhou Qingmin didn't know what had happened. When Zhou's father asked the director to rescue his daughter-in-law, he only said that his daughter-in-law was wrongly accused, which is why he got this note.
Ever since hearing what Shang Ruolian said, Zhou's father had understood a little bit about the situation.
He took out the note when he saw that things were not as simple as he had imagined.
Hearing Qin Gongan say this, Zhou's father also realized the seriousness of the matter. However, since he had already found the director, he had to get things done.
"Comrade Public Security, I've already made it clear to your director. The main culprit is Shang Ruolian. She was the one who tricked Shang Ruonan into going to Sihe Village. Therefore, she is the one who is guilty."
Public Security Qin read the note written by the chief. Although he was somewhat unwilling, he also planned to follow the Zhou family's wishes and put all the blame on Shang Ruolian, and then release Shang Ruonan without charge.
He nodded slightly towards Father Zhou: "I understand."
Although the voices of the two people talking were not loud, Shang Ruolan could still hear them clearly in this small room. At this moment, what else did she not understand?
"Uncle Zhou, please stop slandering me. It was clearly my sister who broke into the house and stole. Why do you say it was me?"
Seeing that Shang Ruolian was still shifting the blame onto Shang Ruonan, Zhou Qingmin was about to argue, but before he could open his mouth, the phone in the room rang.
Qin Gongan walked over and picked up the phone, listening carefully to the voice on the phone, and saw his frown gradually relax.
"Okay, Chief. The case has been thoroughly examined. Don't worry, we will never let any bad guy go."
After hanging up the phone, Public Security Qin looked at Zhou's father and Zhou Qingmin, and made a gesture of invitation towards the door.
"Please leave, both of you. Our director just called and said that this matter must be handled strictly and no one will be allowed to plead for mercy."
Zhou's father and Zhou Qingmin looked at each other. They thought the matter had been resolved, so they planned to ask the police to release Shang Ruonan and take him away. However, a phone call changed the outcome.
"Public Security Officer Qin, look at this note of mine. It was written by your director himself. How come it has changed?" Zhou's father asked with a smile.
Public Security Officer Qin sneered, "Haha... The director said someone misled him just now and almost let the thief go. You should leave quickly. Otherwise, I don't mind asking if you are involved in this matter."
When Zhou Qingmin heard Qin Gongan say this, he wanted to argue with him, but Zhou's father was tactful and pulled him out.
Shang Ruoting was listening with great interest when the door suddenly opened. She couldn't dodge in time and was almost hit by Zhou Qingmin.
When Zhou Qingmin saw her there, a last glimmer of hope ignited in his heart, and his attitude towards her words became much better than before.
"Ruoting, although your two sisters were wrong in this matter, you are relatives after all. Can you forgive them this time?"
Shang Ruoting didn't show any mercy and replied coldly in front of Zhou's father: "No!"
