Chapter 143
Now is the time to test courage. Seeing that the police car was about to collide, and there was no intention of slowing down, the villagers who were blocking the road panicked and jumped to the side in a panic.
They just wanted to rely on their numbers to rescue the patriarch, but they were not willing to give up their lives now!
As a result, several police cars carrying the arrested suspects successfully left Liujiatun and rushed back to Nancheng without stopping.
When they arrived at the police station, Chief Liu and Liu Jian still maintained their composure. They were certain that even if the police came to the village to investigate, the people in the village would not dare to reveal anything.
But despite all their calculations, they had overlooked Liu Dazhuang!
This guy is a coward, and he doesn't have the calmness of the Liu family father and son. Su Miao wrote about his domestic violence in the report letter, so Deputy Director Feng decided to arrest him the moment he heard his name.
After being threatened by the old policeman, Liu Dazhuang confessed everything he knew, including some situations that the police had not yet investigated.
Ten days later, when Uncle Huzi came to deliver the goods, he talked to Su Yuanzheng about the gossip about the Liujiatun case. He heard this when he was delivering goods in the countryside. There were so many stories that he had to squat among the villagers for an hour before he could finish listening.
Su Miao also wanted to listen, so she invited Uncle Hu Zi to the store to eat porridge. After he was full, she sat next to him and looked at him with a curious look.
"We've arrested over a dozen people. Chief Liu and his son are guilty of heinous crimes and will definitely be shot. The others will have to be judged separately!"
Uncle Hu Zi's words were powerful, and now not only Su Miao but also other diners were attracted.
"Comrade, what are you talking about? Where did you capture a dozen people? Can you tell us about it?"
Hu Zi, now excited, elaborated, "In Liujiatun, just outside Ning County, a few years ago, a rape and murder case occurred, and the entire village covered it up. When the police investigated, they uncovered even more: land was not distributed according to regulations, women were forced and oppressed... Oh, there are many more charges I can't name, but they arrested about ten people anyway."
"So, there really are people sentenced to death?"
"We'll have to see what the court decides. Anyway, the two bosses can't escape, but I don't know about the others."
"I thought the crackdown was over, but I didn't expect so many arrests!"
"Look at what you said. Even if we don't crack down on it, people who commit crimes still have to be arrested! Otherwise, how can we guarantee our safety?"
Everyone nodded, but Uncle Huzi sighed, "This time the case was handled very quickly. In just a few days, Liujiatun was turned upside down. As for those women who had been oppressed for a long time, the county took charge and granted them divorces."
A female comrade said, "Isn't this great? You've escaped the sea of suffering. Why are you sighing?"
Hu Zi shook his head. "Those who married in from other villages are easier to deal with. They can just leave Liujiatun and go back to their parents' home. Out of sight, out of mind. But for those whose parents' families are in this village, their parents and brothers think it's shameful for them to get a divorce, and they try their best to stop them. Many of them fail to get a divorce."
"Ah... this..." Everyone sighed, but they were helpless.
"That's right! After the police went in, they also found that they were suspected of human trafficking!"
"What? They're also trafficking people? Is Liujiatun a drug den? They've done all sorts of bad things!"
Uncle Hu Zi recounted the horrifying story he had heard: "By then, almost all the people had been caught. An old policeman saw a house with its gates tightly shut. He had a hunch that something was wrong, so he led his men over and knocked on the door.
There was only a middle-aged couple in that house. They were very panicked when they saw the police knocking on the door. They kept saying that they were the only two of them at home and that they had a very good relationship and there was no oppression.
The police saw that they looked uneasy and went in to search them. Guess what they found?"
Uncle Huzi stopped very technically, causing the people who were listening above to shout.
"No! Come on, tell me!"
"Hurry up and tell me! Hurry up and tell me! Don't keep me in suspense!"
"The police found a pregnant lesbian in the cowshed!"
"What! Cowshed! You're feeding cows while you're pregnant?" an aunt yelled.
Uncle Huzi shook his head. "They weren't feeding the cows. They were living there. It was stinking and there was only one bed." The woman was stunned. She shook her head and said she didn't know anything the police asked.
Then the police wanted to take the man away for investigation and send the lesbian to an orphanage. The lesbian knelt down and said that she was willing!
She said she was an orphan with no home and that this family had kindly taken her in. When the police asked her who the father of her child was, she just started shaking her head again.
The female comrades present were almost furious after hearing this. This was clearly the abduction of a mentally ill person!
"What happened next? What happened next? Did you bring the person out?"
"No, the woman struggled mightily. She was pregnant, so the police couldn't pull her out. They had no choice but to go back and check where to file a missing persons report and find her family first."
…
Su Miao never expected that his letter of complaint would lead to so many cases.
Liujiatun is really doomed to destruction by its own evil deeds. Although it is difficult to change the feudal ideas of the villagers in a short period of time, I hope that after this purge, we can give them a chance to change.
This time, many illegal activities were cracked in a short period of time, including serious and major cases, and Deputy Director Feng was given special praise at the conference.
This opportunity also became a highlight in his future career. His family was even more convinced that the Su Miao family was their lucky star, and they maintained a healthy relationship for the next few decades.
As for the unresolved issues of oppression of women in Liujiatun, the local Women's Federation has also begun to pay attention and launched assistance actions.
However, the three-foot-thick ice does not form overnight. The transformation of many concepts and behaviors requires long-term education and social environment influence.
Some people waited and got their wish, while others became victims of ignorance.
Late at night, a fire broke out in Liujiatun. The nameless female comrade who lived in the cowshed burned the cage that imprisoned her and the executioner to ashes.
I heard that she was released from the cowshed that night, and the hostess gave her a hot bath. The host happily drank wine in the yard and bought half a roast chicken with the money he had just received for prostitution.
Wuming drank a bowl of porridge in silence and sat quietly in the side room.
I don’t know if it was because they won a lot of money this time, but the couple in the living room were a little drunk and were complaining about why they were late. They didn’t notice Wuming who appeared behind them at all.
It was not until the white knife went in and the red knife came out that they fell down in horror.
Wuming spilled their newly bought wine all over the living room and knocked over the kerosene lamp.
That night, most of Liujiatun could hear the shrill laughter of a woman, which sounded like crying and complaining. From then on, this incident became a taboo topic in Liujiatun.
