The man with the pointed mouth was obviously stunned for a moment. Chen Baozhu had a very good reputation and no one knew that he beat his wife.
"W-why?" the pointed-mouthed man asked tentatively.
"I have a cellar at home. As long as you go in and close the door, you can't even hear thunder." After saying this, Chen Dazhuang flicked the cigarette butt in his hand away in disgust.
He turned around and walked ahead unsteadily, "You want to take the laborers in my house away with just this little money? You're dreaming."
The man with the pointed mouth watched Chen Dazhuang walk away and spat fiercely at his back.
"What a thing! He only has one relative left, and he doesn't even know how to treat a little girl well. He's worse than an animal."
I originally thought that taking the little girl away and giving her to someone else as a child bride would be a crime against the child.
Now it seems that if the little girl can really be sold as a child bride, it will give the child a way out.
The man with the pointed mouth turned around and went back to the underground casino.
Jiang Chuan has been hiding in the dark.
The night was quiet, and he heard everything the two people said.
Jiang Chuan was so angry that his fists clenched. What a bastard!
He thought Chen Dazhuang was a good man, but after closing the door, he actually bullied his own sister like this.
Is Chen Baozhu’s death also related to Chen Dazhuang?
Jiang Chuan did not alert the enemy.
There are still too many uncertainties now, so he has to wait until Song Qingyun comes to work tomorrow morning and report to her in time.
He first followed Chen Dazhuang to make sure he went home to sleep, and then turned back to the casino.
Prepare to write down the people who participate in gambling and count their numbers clearly.
No criminal den should be spared.
Before four o'clock, people in the casino left one after another.
The man with the pointed mouth looked around and didn't see Jiang Chuan hiding not far away. He closed the door and went to sleep with peace of mind.
Jiang Chuan waited for a while before leaving and continued to wait by Chen Dazhuang's side.
Qian Xiao and Zheng Yan have been commuting with Song Qingyun these days.
Qian Xiao had to hand over to Jiang Chuan in the morning, so Song Qingyun left early.
At around six o'clock in the morning, Qian Xiao arrived at the handover location with Jiang Chuan, and Jiang Chuan went back to report the situation.
"Teacher Song!" Jiang Chuan excitedly told Song Qingyun about his discovery last night.
Zhang Yulan and Bai Xiaodie also talked about the situation on their side.
They have been intentionally contacting Chen Xiuhua in the past few days, and now the little girl has let down her guard against them.
Song Qingyun said softly, "You two check if the little girl has any injuries today, and bring her here after school."
"Jiang Chuan, you and Qian Xiao lie in ambush at Chen Dazhuang's house and arrest him quietly. I will then arrange for others to siege the underground casino."
"Yes." Everyone responded, their eyes shining.
Finally, we have reached the stage of arrest.
Although they are not sure whether Chen Dazhuang is related to Chen Baozhu's death.
But it is certain that he was involved in both gambling and abusing his sister.
Such people are worse than beasts.
Song Qingyun sighed lightly.
The nine-year-old girl is about the same age as her father Changle.
Having just experienced the death of her parents and then been abused by her own brother, this little girl must be so desolate inside. I wonder if she can ever get out of this shadow.
Without any immediate family members, who will take care of her? Should she go to an orphanage?
Will the things in your home be coveted by your nasty relatives?
Song Qingyun sighed lightly. The fate of this little girl was really miserable!
None of them can go home tonight.
Song Qingyun picked up his office phone and called the steel plant, telling Xia Weian that he would be working overtime tonight and would not be staying at home.
Xia Weian reminded Song Qingyun to be careful and hung up the phone.
He knew that this was the nature of Song Qingyun's current job, and he might often face unexpected situations like his wife not coming home at night.
Xia Weian sighed lightly: What should I do? My wife's career is more important.
Fortunately, they will both be going to college soon.
Xia Weian had a beautiful thought: he wouldn’t have to work after going to college.
After Song Qingyun finished taking care of the family matters, he devoted himself to his work.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xiuhua was taken to Song Qingyun's office by Zhang Yulan and Bai Xiaodie.
In the little girl's timid big eyes, there was stubbornness, fear, and a strong sense of uneasiness.
Song Qingyun stood up and walked to the little girl, quietly taking her hand. "Your name is Chen Xiuhua, right?"
Chen Xiuhua nodded.
"I can help you, don't be afraid."
Chen Xiuhua didn't know why, but when she looked at the beautiful and gentle aunt in front of her, she felt like crying.
Song Qingyun gently rubbed Chen Xiuhua's head, pulled her to sit on a chair, poured her a glass of warm water, and took out the peach cakes and fruits that he had prepared in advance.
The wild fruits were picked by Shuanzi when he returned to the village and the mountains, and Uncle Lao Gen gave them to Song Qingyun.
The moment Chen Xiuhua saw Tao Su, her eyes lit up, but she didn't reach out her hand. She shrank back and forced herself to look away.
"I don't want to eat." Chen Xiuhua said in a low voice.
"This is something I prepared specially for you." Song Qingyun said gently, taking out a jar and handing it to Bai Xiaodie.
"Xiaodie, Yulan, make four cups of oil tea noodles, one for each of us four."
"Okay." Bai Xiaodie responded and went out with Zhang Yulan.
Only Song Qingyun and Chen Xiuhua were left in the room.
Chen Xiuhua kept her head down, pursed her lips tightly, and clutched the corner of her clothes tightly with her small hands.
Song Qingyun looked at Chen Xiuhua gently, his eyes full of encouragement.
Finally, Chen Xiuhua raised her head and met Song Qingyun's eyes.
The little girl still flinched, but she still mustered up the courage to speak, "I think my brother killed my father and caused the death of my mother."
Song Qingyun continued to look at Chen Xiuhua encouragingly.
"The night Dad had the accident, I heard my brother leave the house. He cursed a few times before he left."
"He said the old man had money but refused to give it to him. Today he is going to rob him and take all the money in his pocket."
"I, I don't dare stop him. My brother usually beats me, and I want to tell my mother in the morning."
"When I went to look for my mother, my brother had just come out of her room, and then my mother died."
Chen Xiuhua was already in tears after she finished speaking.
Song Qingyun reached out and hugged the little girl into his arms, patting her back gently. "Don't be afraid, we are here."
Chen Xiuhua burst into tears.
Zhang Yulan and Bai Xiaodie, who were standing at the door, both felt a lump in their throats.
They didn't go in, but stood at the door waiting for Chen Xiuhua to calm down.
After a while, Chen Xiuhua finally calmed down and looked up at Song Qingyun.
"The reason I didn't ask the police for help, nor did I ask the aunties on the street for help, was because I wanted to find what my brother had hidden."
"My mother had a jade pendant that she always wore close to her body, but later on, it disappeared."
"My mother said that it was a small thing left by my grandmother, and it didn't involve any issues with its ingredients. She just kept it hanging around her neck."
"My mother said she would give it to me later."
"My brother always thought that thing could be sold for money. He asked my mother for it several times, but my mother refused to give it to him."
"I suspect my brother took that thing away."
