The Liu family was searched by the police, and the whole village gathered to watch the fun.
Although they couldn't enter the Liu family's yard, it was crowded outside.
"I was wondering why Baogen's mother suddenly said she wanted to go to Baogen's place. It's obvious that she has done something wrong and is feeling guilty."
"I don't know what they did wrong."
"Maybe it's related to Baogen, otherwise how could their family become rich so quickly?"
"The police are making such a big fuss about this, it's definitely not a small case."
The majority are those who gloat over others' misfortune.
Even though Wei Qingyin and Linglong stayed in the old house in the provincial capital, she was not completely idle.
She then paid to place advertisements in several newspapers in the provincial capital, looking for people who had worked in the old house and promised them generous rewards.
The power of money is greater than one can imagine. Within a day, someone came to the Zhong family's old house.
Linglong recovered her memory. As the victim of that year, she cooperated with the police to make a more detailed record.
The police were able to contact Liu's family directly because Wei Qingyin and others reported the case.
As soon as Linglong regained her memory, she told her mother everything that happened that year in detail.
Wei Qingyin was furious and quickly contacted the deputy governor and asked for an investigation.
We had already investigated where the Liu family had gone, and this involved a criminal case. After receiving a call requesting cooperation, the local police came to the door immediately.
Two days later, all members of the Liu family were taken to the provincial public security bureau.
When questioned by the police, Liu Baoqin and her father were shocked and frightened, but they didn't say much.
After hearing what Liu's mother said, she, an old woman, closed her mouth even tighter, only shouting that she was wronged, and did not utter a single word related to Linglong.
When asked how Linglong found it in her house, she said she picked it up. When asked where she picked it up, she said it had been a long time and she couldn't remember clearly.
Another person who is equally tough-talking is Liu Baogen.
When asked about Linglong, he said he knew nothing.
However, the police who went to Liu's house still gained a lot.
Of the belongings that Liu's mother had taken away, there was still one item left, which she had kept as a memento and had not sold. As for Linglong's belongings, they were also found.
Knowing that Liu's mother had taken away a lot of Zhong's property, the police followed this line of investigation.
She has sold a lot of things over the years, and to more than one place, so it is not easy to track them down.
The Liu family was taken to the provincial capital, and only then did the police find some useful clues.
When someone else came to the Zhong family's old house, the case immediately made a breakthrough.
It turned out that some of the channels through which Liu's mother sold her things were obtained by asking colleagues who had worked in the Zhong family's old house.
Wei Qingyin was not afraid of spending money. She just wanted this matter to have a result as soon as possible, and she also wanted to get justice for her daughter.
Wei Qingyin also found the relatives of the old servant who was killed by Liu's mother.
As more and more evidence was collected, the police interrogated the Liu family again.
After all, they lived in the same family. Liu's mother had sold things so many times to improve the family's conditions. How could Liu's father, who was also Liu Baoqin's partner, not know anything about it?
The police gave Liu's father some hints, telling him that the Zhong family had lost property and that some people had died as a result, and he suffered a mental breakdown.
"I don't know, I really don't know. I thought, I thought the old woman was just taking some valuables from the house where she worked. I didn't know there were lives involved."
He had no ability and could not control his wife in many things, but when he saw that someone's life was involved, his conscience began to torment him.
When Liu's father spoke, although he could not prove the fact that Liu's mother killed people, stole property and took away the young child Linglong, he did prove that those properties had existed in their home.
Liu Baoqin and Liu Baogen also had different reactions.
Liu Baogen thought that some of the money for his business came from his mother selling things, so he refused to admit that he knew about it.
But Liu Baoqin is different.
"I don't know what my mother did. Whatever she did, it has nothing to do with me. I didn't commit any crime. If anyone committed any crime, it was her."
She also admitted that she knew of the existence of property of unknown origin.
The police not only combined their confessions, but also obtained the confessions of several people who worked in the Zhong family. Together with the confession of the victim Linglong, they were fully prepared and began to fight with Liu's mother.
As more and more evidence was presented, Liu's mother's psychological defenses were broken.
"I did it, I didn't mean to do it," she cried. "I didn't kill anyone. The old housekeeper was bleeding, and I was scared just looking at her. And the young lady was so young, I felt sorry for her, so I took her away."
She didn't kill anyone, but she watched the old housekeeper die without helping him.
Linglong knew it in her heart, and she felt that this was Liu's mother's "murder", and it was also an act done to her in her previous life.
Perhaps because she was frightened by the murder charge, Liu's mother quickly admitted to other crimes.
However, it is known that Linglong did not kill the old housekeeper. Linglong, an eyewitness and insider, told the police a different story.
She insisted on watching Liu's mother beat the old housekeeper, which led to his death.
The situation was so chaotic back then that the old housekeeper's body was taken away and buried by some unknown staff member and could not be found.
The charges of murder and robbery against Liu's mother still exist.
Maybe Liu's mother's luck has finally run out.
The turmoil caused by the crackdown for several years has not completely subsided.
Even if her case happened many years ago, if she was sentenced now, it would be a biased verdict.
Knowing that his mother had confessed, Liu Baogen quickly cleared himself of the charges.
"I don't know anything. I was just a child back then, how could I understand? I'm sorry my mother committed a crime, so let the organization decide the sentence."
He didn't say a word for the mother who had protected him all his life.
Liu Baoqin's performance was similar.
That is Liu's father, who also spoke a few words on behalf of his wife.
"Even if she did something, it was all out of a momentary confusion. We still raised Linglong, Miss Zhong, to adulthood. We hope the government will see this and show her leniency."
There is certainly no leniency.
Liu's mother was sentenced to death and executed immediately.
In an era when stealing public railway tracks and cables over a certain amount could result in death, no one found it strange or surprising that Liu's mother met such a fate.
Regardless of whether she admitted it or not, the fact that she killed the old housekeeper with her own hands, stole a huge amount of property, and kidnapped Linglong, a minor, was irrefutable evidence. Adding these two points together, it was normal for her to be sentenced to death.
The death penalty is not carried out immediately.
There is still a process to follow.
Before this, Wei Qingyin and Linglong came to the prison.
Wei Qingyin was originally thinking about questioning Liu's mother, but when she saw the old woman's face, which was very different from the previous time she met her, she lost interest in questioning her.
"I don't hate you for taking my Zhong family's property. If you could treat Linglong well, I would be grateful to you. But you didn't. I don't care what your reason is. I just want you to know that because of a single thought, you missed the chance to be thanked by me and become a wealthy man."
Even if Liu's mother wanted to atone for her sins with death, Wei Qingyin would still crush her heart and make her regret it before she died.
This is her revenge as a mother!
