Chapter 124 Procrastination
Jiang Panyu started to stir up trouble again. There was no shortage of people who hated the rich in any era, especially at this time when everyone was mainly frugal. Suddenly, an outlier like the Jin family appeared, so wouldn't they be targeted?
So, on the second day after Jin Tongji was injured, Yushan Town sent an investigation team to investigate the Jin family.
The Jin family had been prepared for this, and they also regretted being too careless. After all, they had been too successful over the years and had long lost their original vigilance.
It was too late to remedy the situation now. Jin Tongxin could only use the Koi Pearl once again. After releasing a full bowl of blood, she felt dizzy and her vision went black for a while. It took her a long time to recover after taking medicine.
After the Koi Bead absorbed the bowl of blood, a light pink smoke enveloped the entire Jin family and disappeared after a few minutes.
When the investigators came to investigate, they found out that the two bicycles in the Jin family were broken. It was said that Jin Tongji bought them from a scrap collection station. He wanted to dismantle them to check for useful parts and make a bicycle for himself, but he has not succeeded so far.
We do have woolen sweaters at home, but they are made by mixing some wool thread from work gloves into the cotton thread. They look like woolen sweaters, but they are actually cotton sweaters. The mixed wool in the four sweaters weighs less than one pound.
Isn't it normal that they have eggs at home? His little daughter is in poor health. Look, she is still sick and lying on the kang, unable to get up. Their family never sells eggs, but keeps them for the children to eat to nourish their bodies.
As for the meat, where is the meat? I lifted the kitchen curtain and took a closer look, and found that what were hung on it were pieces of loofah and bundles of herbs. From the outside, they looked like pieces of meat, but in fact they were all loofah and herbs.
The so-called two pairs of leather shoes are not leather shoes at all. If you take them out and look at them carefully, it seems that they are just two pieces of tire leathers painted in front to make them look like leather shoes. It turns out that there are thousand-layer soles underneath. It's just for show.
In addition to the work points they get from working in the brigade, their family's annual income comes from the fact that Dad Jin also goes up the mountain to collect herbs and sends them to the hospital for purchase, which is also a way to make some money.
After all this, the matter was barely resolved. The investigators came excitedly, thinking they could catch a big fish, but ended up returning disappointed.
The Jin family escaped the disaster, but they did not show any joy. Because of family matters, Jin Tongxin's condition became even worse.
Jin's parents were very scared. They were afraid of losing their daughter and that they would no longer have such a good life in the future without her.
The couple looked at each other, and Mother Jin went into the kitchen. She wanted to make some soup for her son and daughter to nourish them.
Father Jin went out silently. When he came back, he had two more fish in his hands: "Cook them into porridge for the children. Let them have a midnight snack to nourish their bodies."
"Where did this come from? It might make others jealous and sue us." Jin's mother said this after taking the fish.
Father Jin shook his head and said, "There were a few kids catching fish by the river, so I took some candy and exchanged it for two fish. Don't worry, it's just two fish, it won't be that serious."
In the room, Jin Tongji and Jin Tongxin were snuggling together and talking.
Jin Tongji stroked Jin Tongxin's left forearm, his tone extremely gentle: "The doctor said that my problem is not serious and I will be fine in a few days. Then I will definitely bring Shen Shilei back."
Jin Tongxin leaned her thin body against her brother's and said weakly, "Well, you must be careful. By then, I really won't be able to do anything for you. I'm afraid I'll have to rest for a long time."
After Jin Tongxin finished speaking, she closed her eyes tiredly. The scars on her wrists clearly reminded Jin Tongji that her body was really about to run out of energy.
"I'll be careful. Just relax and take good care of yourself. Don't worry about other things." Jin Tongji dissolved a pill and let Jin Tongxin drink it before letting her go to sleep peacefully.
The villagers found it unbelievable that the investigation team could not find any problems with the Jin family, but that was the fact and no matter how unbelievable it was, they had no choice but to accept this result.
A few days passed like this, and Jin Tongji was able to go out of bed. He couldn't wait to find Shen Shilei, but he was much more cautious this time. He did not choose to go alone, and he left in broad daylight.
Jiang Panyu had predicted his prediction long ago and went to Yushan to wait for the opportunity ahead of time.
When Jin Tongji appeared at the station in Yushan Town waiting for the bus, Jiang Panyu used the cheating of the melon-eating system to weaken her presence, making people around her feel like they were "turning a blind eye" to her.
She quietly approached Jin Tongji, then took out a handful of candies from her pocket and scattered them on the ground around her. She also shouted in surprise: "Whose candies are these? Why are they scattered all over the ground?"
The people waiting for the bus looked down and saw candies all over the ground. They quickly squatted down to pick up the candies. Jin Tongji also looked down at the candies on the ground, but he had no shortage of candies thanks to the Koi Pearl, so he naturally didn't bother to pick them up.
But at the moment he lowered his head, Jiang Panyu quickly approached him and punched him on the temple, knocking him unconscious.
Jiang Panyu used 80% of her strength. She was afraid that if she used 100% of her strength, she would beat the man to death. Although it was a pity that such a scum deserved death, she still didn't want to dirty her hands.
While everyone was bending down to pick up candies, Jiang Panyu supported Jin Tongji and left in a swagger. Because the people who were concentrating on picking up candies did not notice that two people were missing during this period.
Jiang Panyu collected all of Jin Tongji's letters of introduction and destroyed them one by one. He took away all the money on him, tied him up tightly from head to toe, and threw him in an abandoned house in Yushan Town, creating the appearance of a premeditated robbery, and then swaggered back to Lianshan Village.
The Jin family had no idea that something had happened to Jin Tongji and were still happily preparing for the "marriage", not knowing that what awaited them would be the punishment of the judge.
Just on the third day after Jin Tongji left, the captain received a call and then ran to Jin's house with a serious face.
In less than ten minutes, Jin's parents followed the captain to the town with frightened faces.
In the town's hospital, they saw Jin Tongji who had been rescued. He had been tied up with hemp ropes for four days and almost starved to death. His muscles had become necrotic due to being tied up for such a long time. Now he was lying in bed like a paralyzed person and couldn't move. They could only use hot towels to apply heat to his body little by little to allow his muscles to recover slowly.
Officer Chen spoke to Jin's parents with a serious face: "It was a homeless man who found Comrade Jin, rescued him, and carried Comrade Jin to the police station to report the crime. That's when we learned that such a heinous kidnapping and robbery had happened in the town.
I would like to ask you two, have you ever offended anyone, or had any conflicts with others?
Or did Comrade Jin tell anyone how much money he had on him before going out? ”
Jin's parents didn't know what to say. Their family had been doing smoothly over the years. In the beginning, in order to keep a low profile, their family hardly interacted with others and was somewhat lonely in the village.
If you say you haven't offended anyone, then where do all the good things in the house come from?
Even though those things were obtained by his daughter's own blood, they did not appear out of thin air. Koi Zhu could not have made those treasures by itself, so it could only embezzle others'. Did someone find something wrong with their family and wanted to retaliate against them?
As for telling anyone how much money he had on him, that was even more impossible. Jin Tongji was in a hurry to find Chen Shilei, so how could he have the leisure to chat with others, so this option could be ruled out.
