That afternoon, Liu Aimei was summoned to the police station again on suspicion of perjury.
Only then did she realize that Old Lady Liu had been arrested.
I didn't expect the police to solve the case so quickly.
Liu Aimei vehemently denied committing perjury.
She was just passing by that day and didn't see anything!
Anyway, the police had no evidence to prove that she saw the truth.
"According to you, the two people who brushed past me also passed through that place. Did you interrogate them? Why are you only asking me? I know nothing!"
"Now that the murderer has been caught, it's no longer my business. I'm going home now!"
Just then, Mo Hong entered.
Liu Aimei felt a little intimidated when she saw Mo Hong.
"Why did you have to go back to Chengxiang Lane before you were even out of your postpartum confinement period?"
Do I need a reason to go back to my parents' home?
Mo Hong: "This involves a key part of the case, and you must provide an explanation."
“I had a dream that my mother almost died, so I went home.”
Mo Hong nodded. "That reason is acceptable, but we also have witnesses who testified that when you left the grove that day and ran into the alleyway by the main road, you kept looking towards the grove with a terrified expression. How do you explain that?"
Liu Aimei's expression changed immediately.
"What?"
"Liu Aimei, confess and you will be treated leniently, resist and you will be punished severely. You actually knew about He Shuqiong and Zhao Qiang's affair a long time ago, and you also knew that they would meet that day, so you deliberately followed them to the grove."
"No, I didn't!"
“You don’t need to deny it anymore. We found out that just three days before the incident, you went back to the building where you used to live with Song Guomin. At the same time, He Shuqiong and her sister were also there, and you overheard their conversation.”
"You're talking nonsense! I didn't hear anything!"
“Whether it’s in the alley or downstairs at Song Guomin’s house, we have witnesses. No matter what you say, Liu Aimei, it’s useless.”
...
In the evening, Xu Guiying and Song Xinfu returned home and heard about the Liu family's situation.
Song Xinfu was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
"What?!"
I never imagined that Xiong Jing was actually Liu Laoniang and Zhao Qiang's daughter!!!
Xu Guiying was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.
Where is that person?
Grandma Song said, "They've probably all been kicked out of the house. No wonder Liu Aimei turned out like that... Her mother didn't set a good example at all!"
It turns out the whole family was up to no good.
That evening, Xu Songyuan told his third and fifth brothers about it when he got home, and the two of them looked like they were dumbfounded.
Song Jianmin added, "What about Liu Aimei? Was she arrested for perjury? She must be devastated."
Song Jianmin felt genuinely happy just thinking about Liu Aimei getting the short end of the stick.
Xu Songyuan was not optimistic. "I don't know about that. Zhao Qiang is dead now, and Sun Xiumin hasn't been caught yet."
Song Anmin frowned and said, "Uncle, we should be more vigilant. Sun Xiumin's family is all gone now. Some are dead, some are in jail. She has nothing to lose, so she must have something else up her sleeve."
Xu Songyuan sighed and shook his head.
Chengxiang Lane and Heping Lane are only three streets apart. Many people go to the teahouse in Chengxiang Lane to drink tea, and the news about the Liu family quickly spread to Heping Lane, where it was discussed in great detail the next day.
Ding Ge and Guo Xia are unaware of this yet.
Xu Guiying told them the truth about the case when she went to work in the morning.
The two were so surprised that their jaws dropped to the floor, and they couldn't bring themselves to look up for a long time.
"Wow, this is an absolutely shocking piece of gossip!"
The Liu family's affair caused quite a stir, and some neighbors would go to the Liu family's courtyard every night to eavesdrop. Finally, three days later, they heard the truth.
Old Liu got drunk and started cursing loudly in the yard.
The insults were particularly harsh, cursing Xiong Jing's background and He Shuqiong for being unchaste. In the end, he sat under the eaves and cried.
Liu Qiangdao was still inside trying to persuade Old Man Liu.
That very night, news of Xiong Jing's background spread again.
...
Sun Xiumin hadn't seen Zhao Qiang for many days and didn't know where he had gone.
One day, after finishing my chores and returning home from get off work, I suddenly saw police officers in the alley.
Sun Xiumin took off running. She hid a short distance away, still wearing her sanitation worker's clothes. She sat by the roadside pretending to rest, and only went back after the police left.
There were still people talking in the alley.
Sun Xiumin leaned over and asked a few questions.
Several neighbors covered their noses and took a few steps back when they smelled the sour stench of garbage on Sun Xiumin.
"Zhao Qiang, he's dead. He was murdered. The police were just looking for his house."
Sun Xiumin's eyes widened suddenly, and her voice was stiff, "The person... is dead? How did they die?"
"What's wrong? Do you know Zhao Qiang?"
Zhao Qiang is a notorious troublemaker here; everyone usually avoids him.
"No, no, I was just curious and asked."
"It seems he had an affair before, and recently he ran into his old lover and tried to extort money from her, but she stabbed him to death."
Sun Xiumin breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, they weren't after her.
Zhao Qiang is dead, and Phoenix Pavilion must know about it by now.
Xu Songyuan definitely doesn't know about Zhao Qiang's relationship with her, and probably hasn't suspected her yet.
The matter concerning the Liu family has now passed.
As a result, Song Anmin got into trouble again.
Song Anmin's former roommate from the brewery rushed to Phoenix Pavilion to find Xu Songyuan.
"You must be Uncle Song Laosan."
Xu Songyuan had just finished cooking a dish, and his whole body was covered in oily smoke.
"Yes, that's me. And who are you?"
"I'm Song Anmin's former roommate. Something happened to him! Please come with me to the factory!"
Xu Songyuan's expression changed drastically!
"What?"
This Friday was the brewery's first quarterly cultural performance, and Song Anmin had two drinks.
When she woke up again, she found herself lying in the same bed as Zhao Zhao. Luckily, she was still wearing her pants, and only her upper body was naked, while Zhao Zhao was completely naked!
