The Gao Huai fraud task force of the Nanzhong City Public Security Bureau decided to focus on monitoring Xiaomei's bank account. As long as there is money transferred into her account, it is possible that it was remitted by Gao Huai from abroad.
The task force members guessed correctly. Gao Huai really missed his ex-wife and children. In fact, he and Xiaomei had always had a good relationship. The reason for their divorce four years ago was not because of emotional reasons, but because of his financial situation. In order not to implicate her, he had to negotiate a temporary divorce with her. When his financial situation improved, he would go back and remarry her.
Xiaomei trusted Gao Huai very much. She obediently took her child back to her hometown to do business. During these four years, she did not develop any feelings with any man and was always looking forward to Gao Huai coming home to pick her and the child up.
It wasn't until the police came knocking on her door that she realized Gao Huai had swindled an old classmate out of payment for goods and had fled abroad. She couldn't understand why he would do this. Even if he had gotten the money, the police would surely hold him accountable. After this brief moment of euphoria wore off, what would become of their lives? Was he going to remain in hiding forever?
Just when Xiaomei was worried about Gao Huai's safety, her uncle sent her 50,000 yuan a few days later. Her uncle's eldest son happened to be working abroad. Her uncle told her that the money was sent by Gao Huai to her cousin, who then sent it back home and converted it into RMB.
"Is Gao Huai living well abroad? Can his personal safety be guaranteed?" Xiaomei asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, he's doing well for now, but he can't return home. He asked you to take good care of the children."
My uncle was also worried about Gao Huai's case. When things developed to this point, all the relatives didn't understand his motives. Why did he choose to do such illegal things instead of running a good company?
Looking at Xiaomei's gloomy face, her uncle shook his head, sighed, and said, "I really can't understand what Gao Huai is thinking. He can't enjoy a good life, but he has to do something illegal? He is not short of money, so what's the point of cheating for so many years? Can he hide abroad forever? Even if he doesn't plan to come back, what will happen to you and the child? Doesn't he miss the child?"
"Uncle, why doesn't he miss the children? I sent a WeChat message to Li Xiaoliang a few days ago because I missed the children. I can't understand why he has changed so horribly in the past few years. I can't believe he was the one who did that crime. I'm living a life worse than death now. I dare not go out to see acquaintances during the day for fear of being gossiped about. I dare not tell the truth to the children for fear that they can't bear it. But you also know that good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles. Others have already been talking about it. Sooner or later, the children will know that their father is a fraud. I can't imagine that they are still so young, and they are labeled as 'fraudster's children'. How are they going to live in the future? Gao Huai created this sin himself, but it is us, mother and child, who are hurt."
Xiaomei tearfully spoke about the difficulties of life. She was in a difficult situation. Although she had divorced Gao Huai a long time ago, the two children were an inseparable bond between them. The three of them were involuntarily affected.
My uncle was also in a heavy mood. He cursed bitterly, "Gao Huai used to be quite clever. Did he get kicked in the head by a donkey this time? A gentleman loves money but gets it in a proper way. Doesn't he understand this? Have all those years of studying been in vain? Can he hide away forever in a foreign country?"
"He has turned us into neither human nor ghost. When will this life end?" When talking about the sad things, Xiaomei's emotions got out of control and she couldn't help crying.
"Oh, don't be too sad. I'll talk to your cousin and ask him to persuade Gao Huai to return to China and surrender himself. This might reduce his guilt."
"If he doesn't return, we won't be able to live a normal life because of him. If he returns, he'll go to jail. In short, no matter what choice we make, the ones who will be hurt the most are me and my children."
"Don't worry, save this money for your child's tuition. If you have any difficulties, just tell me and I will help you solve them."
Xiaomei's uncle sent cash, but the police found out through investigation that he had recently received a sum of foreign currency and then gave money to Xiaomei. It was obvious that the money was sent back by Gao Huai from abroad.
Three days later, the police came to Xiaomei's house to verify the situation.
The police officer asked in a businesslike manner, "Have you contacted Gao Huai recently?"
Xiaomei answered timidly, "He hasn't contacted us since he went abroad."
"He sent a WeChat message to Li Xiaoliang a few days ago, asking about your mother and son's recent situation."
"I know, but he didn't contact me."
"According to our investigation, your uncle received a sum of US dollars a few days ago, and then he came to you. Tell us the truth, did he give you the money?" The police asked directly, which made Xiaomei's heart suddenly panicked and she didn't know how to answer.
If she told the truth, she was worried that the money would be confiscated; if she didn't tell the truth, she was worried that she would be held accountable for harboring a criminal.
"Me?" The panicked look on Xiaomei's face did not escape the police's sharp eyes.
"We hope you tell us the truth, which will help us solve the case. Otherwise, you will be suspected of harboring a criminal and will be held accountable for the law." The police seriously explained the interests involved to Xiaomei.
Gao Huai is currently abroad with an uncertain fate. Even for the sake of her child, Xiaomei cannot afford any accidents. She wants to get rid of the impact of this case as much as possible. In desperation, she had to admit: "Yes, my uncle gave us 50,000 yuan. This is the money Gao Huai remitted to my cousin abroad, and my cousin then transferred it to my uncle, who then changed it into RMB to give to my mother and me for living expenses. In order to prevent it from being frozen by you, he specially gave me the cash."
"Don't be nervous. We handle cases based on principles. He is him and you are you. We won't confiscate the two. We came to you today not to confiscate the money. We just want to know about Gao Huai's recent situation. This case involves transnational litigation, and the procedures for handling the case are very complicated. We suggest that you find a way to contact him and try to get him to return to China and surrender. As long as he returns the payment to Mingdan Company, his guilt can be appropriately reduced. As long as he is deported from Country G, his guilt will be difficult to say. At that time, in addition to compensating Mingdan Company for the payment, he will also be subject to severe legal sanctions. I hope you will carefully consider our suggestions and cooperate with our work. As long as the case is closed, your life can return to normal."
