After Zhan Dayou came out of Zhan Baoyu's ward, he gathered his family together for a small meeting.
The Mafang City abduction and trafficking case, overseen by the provincial Public Security Department, has been thoroughly investigated, with seven suspects apprehended. Among them are three members of the Zhan family (Zhan Jinhua, Zhan Baokun, and Qian Jindou), as well as Zhan Heping from their village. The other three are Cao Yong and his two younger brothers from Shengli Village.
The Zhan family knew that there was no way to save Zhan Jinhua and his wife this time, so their recent efforts have been to reduce their sentences, that is, to replace Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou from the position of gang organizers, and let Zhan Baokun, Zhan Heping and others bear greater responsibility.
This was largely due to the contribution of Director Guo Hong of the Jiangyuan City Public Security Bureau, who allowed the Zhan family to meet with Zhan Jinhua and his wife and to unify their statements.
Now, Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou insisted that Zhan Baokun was the mastermind of the whole thing, and Cao Yong and the other two were the main executors. They were just following Zhan Baokun's arrangements and using the restaurant's location to provide some convenience for them to kidnap and transfer the abducted people.
Investigators discovered that Zhan Jinhua and his wife owned two properties, but not much in their bank accounts. They claimed the money was earned from running a noodle shop, which was popular at the train station and had a good business.
In contrast, Zhan Baokun, a grassroots police officer with low income and no family background, not only owns a house, but also started using a mobile phone several years ago.
Moreover, the Zhan family set up a trap and opened a loophole in Zhanjia Village, allowing the investigators to easily enter Zhan Baokun's old house to search. They found a secret compartment in his mother's kang and found a full 100,000 yuan in cash from it.
In this day and age, if an old rural lady can have so much money, it is hard not to suspect that the money came from illegal sources.
The old lady had been under house arrest and guarded by Zhan Dayou's men until they got news from Guo Hong that Mafang City had sent people to investigate the case across the city. Only then did they set up this trap.
When Zhan Baokun's mother saw so much money found in her house, she was completely stunned.
Although she was an illiterate old rural woman, she knew that this matter was not simple, so she would never admit that the money belonged to her family.
At this time, the villagers that Zhan Dayou had arranged long ago came over and pointed fingers at Zhan Baokun's mother, saying that she spent money lavishly on a daily basis, but she did not seem to have any legitimate way to make a living, so she must have done something bad.
In this way, Zhan Baokun's mother was also taken away by the police.
At this time, Zhan Baokun didn't know what was happening outside. When Zhan Baoku went to see him, he promised him that as long as he took the initiative to assume the main responsibility, he would take good care of his mother in her old age, and also take care of his wife and children, so that they would have no worries about food and clothing and live a good life.
Ever since Zhan Baokun's father passed away, the mother and he have been dependent on each other and have received a lot of care from Zhan Dayou's family.
He was very grateful to his uncle's family, and he knew that if he had not relied on his uncle, he would not have been able to wear a uniform and live a decent life, and buying a house and getting married would not have been easy for him.
If he did not agree to Zhan Bao Ku's request this time, he would not have a good life even if he was released from prison after serving two years.
In order to give his mother, wife and children a peaceful life, he felt it was worth taking the blame for his cousin and spending a few more years in jail.
Under Zhan Baoku's eloquent promise (deception), Zhan Baokun agreed to the matter and immediately changed his confession, saying that he was the organizer.
Combined with the things found in Zhan Baokun's home, it seems that the chain of evidence is about to be closed.
However, since Professor Zhou and Sun Aimin are paying attention to this case, they will naturally not let Zhan Jinhua and Qian Jindou off easily.
What's more, the Wu Xing and Zhao Hongjun families are waiting to settle accounts with these two people.
Now, as the case of Zhan Jinhua and others is about to go to trial, Zhan Baoyu has encountered such a thing again.
The Zhan family naturally heard about the current anti-trafficking campaign in the province, and because of this, Zhanjiazhuang completely stopped this business.
Zhan Dayou had spread the word in the village that if any villagers secretly went out to conduct "business," they would be spared if caught. Furthermore, if anyone dared to betray them, they would be in trouble for their families.
The villagers have lived under the tyranny of Zhan Dayou for a long time. Those who are disobedient have been forced to leave their homes or become marginalized people in the village. Therefore, almost no one dares to resist Zhan Dayou.
But now, in order to fulfill his son's dying wish, Zhan Dayou decided to take the risk and do another job.
Fortunately, this is not Mafang City, which has the strictest control, but Jiangyuan City. There are people from above to protect us, so it is much more convenient to do things.
Even if he was arrested, Director Guo Hong always had a way to make a big deal out of a small matter, or a small matter out of nothing. After all, he had received so many gifts, so he had to show his value.
After Zhan Dayou gathered his family together, everyone looked at him with worried faces, wanting to hear his instructions.
Zhan Dayou said, "You all know Baoyu's situation. His greatest wish now is to have a son. This way, he can continue his family line."
Everyone knew what he meant as soon as they heard it. Zhan Baoku said, "Dad, this is easy. Let's go to the train station and get the best one for my second brother."
Zhan Dayou said, "Let's discuss this matter. One person will do it. So, second wife, third wife, you two go to the station to find the target and work together to transport the child out."
Remember, find the best-looking one, preferably one that can speak and remembers nothing. Baoku, wait outside the station, and we'll take the child home right away. Let's train him well first, so that Baoyu can hear the child calling him dad before he dies.
