Several people were arguing at the gate of the courtyard, and the old man who had just called the police quickly came over with two police officers.
Seeing Zheng Yaozu pointing a kitchen knife at someone, he pulled out a pistol and pointed it at him, "Put down the kitchen knife! Get down!"
Zheng Yaozu's arrogance was instantly extinguished by half.
Who would dare to say that they are not afraid when someone points a gun at them?
No matter how ignorant and careless Zheng Yaozu was, he knew the pain of being shot.
He quickly put down the kitchen knife and squatted down with his hands raised, "Uncle Public Security, it's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding!"
The public security comrades approached and took away the kitchen knife, then asked Zheng Yaozu to stand up and searched his body briefly. After finding that he had no murder weapon, they released him to find out the situation.
Zheng Yaozu made up a bunch of nonsense, saying that he did not bully Liu Xue and it was all a misunderstanding.
But several elderly men and women who followed him directly denied his statement, saying that when he chased Liu Xue out with a kitchen knife, the opening of his trousers was open, and Liu Xue's clothes were disheveled and she looked frightened when she came out.
The police went to question Liu Xue again. Although Liu Xue was frightened, she still tried her best to tell all the details.
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yong came back quickly.
She hurried into the next door and said, "Who bullied me? Zheng Yaozu, you bastard, you're just like your idle parents. The son of a mouse is the only one who can dig a hole!"
Liu Yong was very emotional. After carefully checking that Liu Xue was not injured, he walked up to Zheng Yaozu and slapped him in the face. Even the police officers did not react and quickly pulled him away.
Zheng Yaozu was quite good at it. "Look, he hit me first. I didn't touch Liu Xue! You didn't see anything, so why do you say I touched her? You are all slandering me! What's wrong with my mom stealing things? You don't have the ability to steal! I think you are just jealous that my family can eat meat, and you did it on purpose! My mom was arrested, and you are all responsible."
Zheng Yaozu's words completely exposed the fact that he was mentally immature and still a teenager. This also reminded the police that the child's mother had just been caught stealing, and it was Zhang Ying and Liu Yong who called the police.
Although there is no definite evidence that Zheng Yaozu bullied Liu Xue, it was definitely targeted.
"Alright! Everyone, be quiet! Zheng Yaozu, right? Come with us! The police will definitely make a final decision on whether you did it or not. If you're innocent, no one can convict you!"
Zheng Yaozu fell silent. The police were no fools either. “Comrade Liu Yong, we need to go to the courtyard and take a look.”
Liu Yong nodded and led the two into his home.
Sure enough, the door was wide open, and the room was in a mess. Liu Yong looked at the box where the money was kept and said, "Oh, comrade, we're missing even a hundred yuan!"
The public security comrade looked at it, then looked at Liu Xue's room and found that Zheng Yaozu had not taken out the coat he took off at the beginning, and the bed was also a mess.
There is no need to think about it, Liu Xue definitely did not lie.
Liu Yong was really angry when he saw this scene.
Liu Xue is only twelve years old! This Zheng Yaozu, damn it!
"Comrade, do you know where Zheng Yaozu's father works?"
Liu Yong thought for a moment and said, "I can't remember. Our relationship has never been good. Zheng Yaozu's mother is quite arrogant and has a bad temper in our courtyard, so we have quarreled a few times over trivial matters and we are not very familiar with each other. But I think I saw the font printed on Zheng Zong's lunch box. It was either from a printing factory or a cement factory."
"Okay, we understand. Come and take our statement."
After the police took several people back to the police station, they did find about a hundred yuan on Zheng Yaozu, which was the money in the Liu family's box.
When everyone looked carefully, they found some red marks on Liu Xue's body, especially on her arms and neck, as if they were left when she was grabbed tightly by hands.
Liu Xue was young and had to be held down and comforted by two female police officers for a long time before she stopped crying.
But Zheng Yaozu was not an adult yet, so at most he would be sent to a juvenile detention center for two years.
This is because Zheng Yaozu stole money. If he hadn't stolen money, he might have been released on the same day, and at most he would have been fined.
It was already eight or nine o'clock when Zheng Zong came to the police station after hearing the news. He learned about this just after getting off work in the morning and afternoon, so he came quickly.
When Zheng Zong heard that Zheng Yaozu had tried to rape Liu Xue but failed, he felt for the first time in his life that Zheng Yaozu had been spoiled too much.
It's indeed too much pampering.
If it was just a petty theft, you could still find a way to deal with it and start a new life, but if you were branded as a rapist, you would never be able to turn things around.
Zheng Zong almost knelt down to Liu Yong, saying that he would compensate Zhang Ying for medical expenses and nutrition expenses, and asked them to spare Zheng Yaozu.
Liu Yong refused directly. The two families had come to this point, and they lived in the same courtyard. They would see each other every day. If Zheng Yaozu did not change, he would definitely make a big mistake in the future.
Liu Yong insisted on not asking for compensation and pursued Zheng Yaozu's responsibility.
After hearing what Chen Yun said, Ling Ju asked, "What about Zheng Yaozu?"
Chen Yun replied, "He's in the detention center right now. If confirmed, he'll be sent to a juvenile detention center for two years, similar to what happened to Zhang Fan."
Ling Ju thought about it and decided that just two years wouldn’t work.
Two years later, Zheng Yaozu has become an adult. What if he goes out and seeks revenge on the Liu family?
"Secretary Chen, please do me a favor. Go to Zhang's house, find Zhang Yu, and tell him about this..."
Ling Ju told Chen Yun about Zheng Yaozu's theft from Zhang's house and asked Chen Yun to tell Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu and the Zheng family were originally irreconcilable. If he knew that Zheng Yaozu sneaked into his house to steal things, he would definitely be angry.
"Then you can help him come up with some ideas and try to keep Zheng Yaozu for a few more years. And then, spread the word about Zheng Yaozu's good deeds at his school. But don't mention his attempted rape, as that will affect the girl. Just talk about his mother and him stealing things."
