Chapter 112 Murder
Peng Li was shocked. Just how much more did this family have to do?
Now that even murder has happened, this is beyond his ability to handle. He quickly ran out to find the police station leaders to deal with it.
"Wait here for a moment, I'll go find the director right away. Just tell him what's going on!"
Xu Xiaocao sat on the stool without moving. "Xu Qiang, since you're leaving no way out, then I don't need to hold back either. You can just wait to spend your whole life in jail..."
Xu Xiaocao sat quietly in the interrogation room. After a short while, the door to the interrogation room was forcefully opened again. Two people with serious expressions walked in and sat down opposite Xu Xiaocao.
With a grave expression, Director Wang Gang asked, "You said you want to report Xu Qiang for murder?"
Xu Xiaocao coldly replied, "Yes..."
Wang Gang and Deputy Director Yang Peng exchanged a glance. "Then please recount what happened. Who did he kill?"
Xu Xiaocao recalled the incident, a hint of fear appearing on her face, "That was about four years ago..."
That day, I was cutting grass by the stream when I saw that no one was around, so I decided to sneak off to the vicinity of Banyun Mountain to find something to eat...
There was nothing I could do; I never had a full meal back then. I had to find something to eat on my own, otherwise I would have starved to death long ago.
Just as I reached the foot of Banyun Mountain behind our village, I saw Xu Qiang and a woman going up the mountain…”
Upon hearing this, Yang Peng pressed further, "Who is that woman? What is their relationship?"
Xu Xiaocao paused for a moment, "That woman is the wife of a family in the east of our village, her name is Yuhong, she and Xu Qiang..."
"We have that kind of relationship..."
"Do you know what happened next?"
"I know, I was very curious at the time because Xu Qiang is a very unapproachable person. I had never seen him so intimate with outsiders before..."
So I took the risk and followed far behind. I had never been up Banyun Mountain before, and I had to muster up my courage to go up that time.
But the path on Half Moon Mountain was very difficult to traverse. By the time I followed their trail to the vicinity, Xu Qiang and that woman were already arguing…”
"What were they arguing about?" Wang Gang asked. Judging from Xu Xiaocao's tone, the person who was killed must be Yu Hong, so the reason for their argument must be the cause of her death...
Xu Xiaocao's lips curled into a cold smile, "It seems it's because of money. Yu Hong wanted to ask Xu Qiang for two hundred yuan, but Xu Qiang refused to give it to her, so the two of them started arguing..."
Then, Yu Hong said something that enraged Xu Qiang…
Yang Peng quickly pressed, "What did you say?"
Xu Xiaocao said leisurely, "Yu Hong said that she knew Xu Qiang would go to the county post office every month to pick up a money order, and someone would be sending him money every month. Then, Xu Qiang got furious..."
He threw Yu Hong to the ground and then questioned her about whether she had been following him.
At this point, any smart person would have known to back down, but that woman was a complete idiot; she was actually provoking Xu Qiang even further.
She said she had a relative who worked at the post office, so she found out all this information, and she also intercepted a letter sent to her by a woman named Chunxiang.
Hearing this, Xu Qiang was no longer so angry. Instead, he became cold and asked her if she had read the letter.
The woman actually admitted it, saying the letter told him to raise their son well so that the three of them could be reunited...
Then……
