Chapter 147 Jinjiang First Launch
At this time, Lame Brother and several men carried Qin Junfeng back. As expected, he fell into the ditch while escaping and broke his leg. He could not climb out by himself. When Lame Brother and others arrived, Qin Junfeng was calling for help there. So Lame Brother cut some branches nearby, made a simple stretcher, and carried him back together with the men.
They walked to the door. As the door was surrounded by a group of people, Mi Xiaoqin did not notice the footsteps behind her. She was still crying, "You have all been fooled by Lele's appearance. She is not as simple as she looks. She is actually very scheming. She is a scheming person!"
"My husband and I used to have a good relationship, but since Lele was born, my husband's heart has been all on her. No matter what delicious or fun things are, my husband always gives them to her first. I am like a transparent person in this family. It is Lele who made me become like this. She stole my husband's heart. She is a vixen!"
"Lele is so beautiful, she scares me. Whenever he sees her, my husband's eyes will be glued to her and he won't even look at me. Sometimes he will even kiss Lele in front of me. I stand by and watch, and I always feel like I'm being cuckolded. People say that a daughter is her father's mistress from his previous life. This may be true, at least in our family. Lele is a mistress who reincarnated to seduce my husband!"
"She is so capable at such a young age. What will happen when she grows up? When she grows up, there will be no place for me in this family. I will not allow this to happen. Therefore, I will kill Lele when she is still a child. I want her to be reduced to ashes and disappear from this world!"
"I wanted to take action against her when she was one or two years old, but she was discovered by a scout and became a child model. She also earned a lot of money. My husband and I were supported by her, so I couldn't take action. So I said to myself, I will bear it for a few more years, and when Lele is out of fashion and can't get any work, I will get rid of her."
"I originally planned to do it when she was ten years old, but now I can't wait any longer because my husband wants to divorce me. He wants to take Lele away and we split the family property in half. Of course I don't agree. My husband is my lifeblood. Everything I do is for him. I got pregnant for him, raised a child for him, and endured everything for him. And the result is that he wants to divorce me?"
"Needless to say, I know he thinks I am a nuisance. He wants to take Lele to live alone. Ha, he wants it, but I won't let him have his way! In the past six months, he has proposed divorce to me many times, but I have been dragging my feet and refusing to agree. As long as I don't agree, this marriage will never be divorced."
"Gradually he started to use cold violence against me. I knew that this was not a solution. I had to solve the problem from the root, which was to get rid of Lele."
"Only when she dies will my husband's attention return to me and I can be happy again."
"With this in mind, I started my plan. First, as a method of committing the crime, I chose explosion. At that time, there were frequent news reports of battery explosions, which gave me inspiration. I decided to use a battery to blow Lele to death. I rented the abandoned factory and conducted an experiment inside."
"I put the battery inside the house, then I climbed to the top of the factory and threw a sandbag in through a skylight. It was a sandbag that was about the same weight as Lele. The sandbag landed on the battery. There was no reaction at first, but after a few minutes, the battery continued to be squeezed and smoke began to come out of the edge. Then there was a 'bang' sound. That scene was beautiful."
"I had the method, and then the time and location. I chose to go to the photo studio to shoot this day because it is far from the city center. After Lele was injured in the explosion, there was no time to rescue her. Maybe she died on the way, hahahaha."
"I secretly put the battery into the studio the night before the photo shoot. In order to get rid of my husband and I's suspicion, I chose this day to agree to his divorce request. He seemed to be afraid that I would regret it and couldn't wait to drag me to the Civil Affairs Bureau. We dropped the child off and left. I thought, since we were not at the scene when the explosion happened, the police wouldn't suspect us, right? If they did, they would suspect the photography team."
"After arriving at the Civil Affairs Bureau, I lied that I had diarrhea and hid in the public toilet next door. He was very dissatisfied and waited for me outside. I squatted in the toilet and kept looking at my phone, hoping to get the news that Lele was injured in the explosion as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, the news of the explosion did not come, but the news that Lele was missing came. It was all because of those stupid college students who ruined my good thing!"
"By the way, do you know why I chose explosion? Actually, I could have chosen poisoning, which would have been more silent, but I chose explosion. I wanted the fire to burn every inch of her skin. I wanted my husband to see Lele become ugly. By then, his love for her would have disappeared, right? Originally, in my plan, I would give up on rescuing Lele after she was seriously injured. Humph, this little vixen, I wanted her to leave this world in the ugliest way! Unfortunately, she escaped."
"Hehe, there's something you haven't thought of. The reason why I was in a hurry to go to the hotel to pick up Lele is because I want to attack her again. Even if I am destined to go to jail, I will kill her before the police come to arrest me. I am getting rid of harm for the people!"
After Mi Xiaoqin finished speaking, everyone gasped and looked at her as if she were a monster. Everyone was so shocked that they were speechless.
She sat on the ground, laughing crazily, completely unconcerned about the eyes of the people around her. These were her true feelings that she had been holding back for a long time, and today she finally said them out loud, and she felt very good.
Hearing these words, Qin Junfeng, who was lying on the stretcher, suddenly became horrified. He stood up with all his strength, pushed aside the crowd, dragged his bloody leg and stumbled towards Mi Xiaoqin, and slapped her hard:
"You bastard, you killed my Lele?"
"Le Le is not dead," Bai Mian explained. "She fainted from hypoglycemia that day and was rescued by a group of college students. The one who was injured was another child model."
Mi Xiaoqin covered her face and cried bitterly: "She is not dead, but I wish she was dead. She seduced——"
Before she finished, Qin Junfeng slapped her in the face again: "You bastard, you are talking nonsense. I am Lele's father, of course I love her! You are narrow-minded, jealous of your own daughter, and you think our relationship is so dirty. I will call the police in Beijing and ask them to arrest you as soon as possible. Lele doesn't have a mother like you!"
Mi Xiaoqin did not fight back, but just sat on the ground and cried. As the matter was settled, the barrage of comments in the live broadcast room increased.
[This child is so pitiful. Her father has shut her down and her mother wants to kill her. What kind of hell is this...]
[I think the other child model who was injured in the explosion is the one who is pitiful. The child didn't even know this family, but was inexplicably injured by this crazy woman. How can this be justified?]
[This woman is really obsessed with competition. She even takes it out on her own daughter. Does she think that anyone wants to snatch your stupid husband? Please, sister, if your husband looks like that and I see him on the street, I will call the police!]
[Even if the father and daughter are too close and cause the mother to be unhappy, it is the father's fault. Lele is only six years old. What can she understand? This woman is different. She thinks her husband, who is in his thirties, is naive and ignorant, but her six-year-old daughter is full of scheming. It's ridiculous! ]
The crowd of onlookers also pointed at Mi Xiaoqin and accused her. Mi Xiaoqin covered her face and cried and made a fuss. Qin Junfeng stood aside, leaning against the cabinet, with the attitude of a winner. He had already called the police and just had to wait for the police to take Mi Xiaoqin away. At this time, Bai Mian suddenly spoke:
"Mi Xiaoqin, you actually miscalculated one thing."
"What?" Mi Xiaoqin said in tears. She didn't understand what the point of Bai Mian saying these things was. Anyway, her plan had already failed. What did it matter whether it was right or wrong?
Bai Mian: "You think Qin Junfeng will like Lele more when she grows up and becomes prettier. You are wrong. In fact, Qin Junfeng just likes Lele's appearance when she was a child. The reason why he wants to isolate Lele and prevent her from growing up, besides greed, is another reason - he is a fetishist."
Xia Mang was so shocked that she stuttered: "He, he, he, he... he really has an unfaithful heart towards his daughter! So, this crazy woman is not wrong, her husband has indeed fallen in love with someone else..."
Mi Xiaoqin said nothing and lowered her head. No one could see the expression on her face. Qin Junfeng's face turned red and he immediately retorted, pointing at Bai Mian and cursing her a lot. But no matter what he said, Bai Mian remained calm and looked at him indifferently.
Bai Mian tilted his head and looked at Mi Xiaoqin in the crowd: "Actually, you know, right?"
Mi Xiaoqin didn't say anything, Bai Mian continued: "You know your husband has special feelings for the child, and you know he often goes to Lele's bedroom after you fall asleep."
"Ah?" Xia Mang exclaimed, "Could it be that this beast gave Lele to..."
Bai Mian waved his hands, "No, he has the heart but not the courage. He only dares to go to Lele's bedroom and take a look, but doesn't dare to do anything. After all, Lele is an internet celebrity. But if things continue like this, he will do something to Lele sooner or later. In fact, he filed for divorce several times just to get rid of Mi Xiaoqin and do something to Lele without being disturbed."
"He called the police not because he cared about the child, but because he hoped the police would arrest Mi Xiaoqin as soon as possible, so that he would have custody of the child and all the property, and he could do whatever he wanted."
Qin Junfeng was still trying to make excuses, but no one believed him anymore. The lame guy standing next to him couldn't stand it anymore and kicked him hard in the crotch:
"You bastard, how dare you have evil thoughts about a child? I carried you back in vain. I should have let you die in the ditch earlier!"
At this time, the police rushed to the gate of Ci Xin Hall and took the couple away. After all, they were from Beijing, and the Qingshui Town police would hand them over to the Beijing police for handling. After they left, the crowd was still spitting at their backs.
Xia Mang asked Bai Mian: "How will this matter be handled later?"
Bai Mian: "Mi Xiaoqin is guilty of intentional homicide and arson and will be sentenced to death. Qin Junfeng is guilty of child abuse and will be sentenced to ten years in prison. The court will deprive them of their custody rights over Lele and Lele will be adopted by caring people in society."
Xia Mang nodded: "These two evil people have been punished, but Lele is so pitiful. I hope it won't leave a shadow in her heart..."
Bai Mian shook his head: "She knows that although this child is young, she is very precocious. She has long understood the weird atmosphere in the family and her father's obscene eyes. Every time her father secretly stood at the head of the bed and looked at her, she was actually awake, but just pretended to be asleep and didn't dare to make a sound."
"There is a pencil drawing in Lele's drawer. There is a big black bear in the drawing. Every night, the big black bear will appear and lie on the bedside staring at her. She won the first prize in kindergarten with this drawing. The teacher thought she was drawing a horror story. In fact, this horror story happened in her home. The big black bear is her father. She used this drawing to ask the teacher for help, but the teacher did not understand."
Xia Mang felt uncomfortable: "How scared this child must have been at that time..."
Bai Mian patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry. When the police find her in the hotel, they will arrange psychological counseling for her. She will be adopted by a loving family in the future. She will live a happy life for the rest of her life. She will occasionally think of the shadows of her childhood, but they are no longer that important."
Just as Xia Mang felt relieved, Lu Xue came up to him and said, "But the injection is irreversible. Lele has been injected with the injection. He will never grow to a normal height, right?"
Bai Mian didn't say anything, tacitly accepting this statement. Lu Xue sighed softly: "This child is like amber, forever frozen in time. I wonder how many such cases there are in the child model industry."
A few people stood at the door to enjoy the fresh air. Gao Jin called out to them from the kitchen: "Hey, the meal is ready. Come over for lunch!"
This voice brought everyone's thoughts back from the case just now. Several people walked to the dining table together. Today's lunch was fried noodles and mixed cold vegetables. Gao Jin enthusiastically introduced the two newcomers:
"Come on, sit down and have a taste of my cooking. Last night the old man kept talking about wanting to eat fried noodles with soybean paste, so I made it for him this afternoon. I fried the sauce myself and rolled the noodles myself. It's a secret recipe that you can't get anywhere else. The old man loved this when he was young, and he never gets tired of it after eating it for so many years."
Gao Jin added, "Oh, this morning we had shredded pork noodles, and at noon we had fried bean paste noodles. Both meals were noodles. I was afraid you would get tired of them, so I made a few more dishes. Now the weather is too hot, and everyone has no appetite, so I won't cook any dishes. I'll just make cold dishes, like cold lettuce, cold bean curd and peanuts, pickled pepper pork skin, and boneless chicken feet in sauce. The last one is a popular dish on the Internet. I learned it from the Internet. The Internet said that young people love to eat this now. Come and try it!"
Lame Brother had already sat at the dining table, slurping his noodles without any courtesy. Although the two new sisters came from wealthy families, they were not arrogant. They sat down at the old dining table without hesitation and took a few bites of food with chopsticks.
Xia Mang picked up a boneless chicken claw and quickly picked up another one after tasting it. Lu Xue tried a piece of pickled pepper pork skin. After eating, she put down her chopsticks and said to Gao Jin seriously, "Boss, your cooking skills are really good, just as good as those chefs out there. Why don't you open a restaurant of your own?"
Gao Jin smiled warmly: "We had no money at the beginning, so we could only rent this store. The store was used to open a clinic for the old man, so naturally we couldn't open a restaurant."
Then she joked, "Hey, old man, did you hear that? You have taken away my business opportunity. The young lady has suggested that you should give way to me and turn this place into a hotel!"
Weng Xuhua took a bite of the dish and followed her words, "Okay, okay, in the future, when Ci Xin Tang becomes a hotel, you will be the chef and I will be your assistant. You will be responsible for cooking and I will be responsible for cutting vegetables. Let these young people take the orders."
Gao Jin sighed: "Forget it, you are old, and I'm afraid you might cut your hand if I ask you to cut vegetables."
Weng Xuhua smiled, and the couple looked at each other in tacit understanding. Lame brother interrupted them at an inopportune time: "Hey, boss, can you help me pick up some chicken feet? I can't reach them."
Weng Xuhua said as he was picking up some food for him, "I noticed that you have a bigger appetite today. Is it because your wish to rob a tomb was thwarted that you turned your anger into appetite?"
Lame Brother shook his head: "Grave robbing is nothing. It's not worth my sadness. I need to eat more and gain more strength so that I can do great things soon."
Weng Xuhua couldn't help but worry about him: "What big thing are you going to do again? Are you going to rob a bank this time? Let me make it clear, if you get caught, don't say you know us."
"I won't rob a bank. Don't worry, I won't implicate you." Lame Brother quickly finished the last mouthful of noodles and went back to his room to sleep.
Xia Mang looked at his back and said, "This guy is really strange. His temper is so hot and cold. Is he always like this?"
Bai Mian said, "No, he has something wrong. I will catch the evil spirit in his heart tonight."
Xia Mang's starry eyes reappeared, and she looked at Bai Mian with admiration: "Wow, Master, are you going to catch ghosts? Can you take me to see it?"
Bai Mian shook his head and rejected her with his eyes.
After lunch break, everyone went downstairs. The door was already crowded with people. There was only one fate master left in the afternoon. Bai Mian needed to get rid of him and then assist the police to complete the transaction with the mysterious client.
Bai Mian made a cup of winter melon tea, turned on the live broadcast, and sat lazily behind the diagnosis table, waiting for the third fate master to arrive. However, today this fate master was late. People around were complaining, but Bai Mian did not say anything and continued to wait quietly.
While we were waiting, a black car sped past and almost hit someone. After the car passed by, it came back a few minutes later. It seemed that they were looking for the Tzu Xin Tang store.
A black car stopped at the door, the driver was sitting in the car, and a tall and handsome man got out of the passenger seat. The car windows were covered with film, but Bai Mian could still vaguely see someone sitting in the back seat.
The man walked straight towards Bai Mian: "Hello, I want to take your pulse."
Bai Mian: "To check your pulse, you need to queue up and draw lots in the morning."
The man frowned: "It's such a hassle, what if I don't win?"
Bai Mian shrugged: "Then please come back tomorrow."
Hearing this answer, the man was very unhappy: "You are kidding me, aren't you? We don't have that much time to waste with you. I want you to take my pulse right now, and I can give you money!"
Bai Mian stretched his waist lazily: "This is the rule of our store, please go back."
Seeing Bai Mian's nonchalant attitude, the man gritted his teeth, leaned over and whispered in Bai Mian's ear: "Are you sure? My boss is not an ordinary person - you can't afford to offend him -"
