Chapter Fifty-Six: The Corpse Sealed in the Wall
Thinking of this, a mocking smile appeared on his face. Then he said in a serious tone, "Don't threaten me. I am a public servant, dedicated to serving the people. If people encounter injustice or suffer grievances, they come to us in the police force. We can't ignore it. If people encounter problems they can't solve, they come to us in the police force, and we will help them solve them."
Don't try to threaten me just because you're a member of the Revolutionary Committee. I, Wang Shunzheng, am not coerced or threatened in any way. We will not wrong an innocent person, nor will we let a guilty person go unpunished. If you have nothing to hide, let us go to your home for a visit."
This Han Meili is no saint. When she was a Red Guard, she often ransacked her home, but because the head of the Revolutionary Committee was her backer, he couldn't touch her. Now, he's going to deal with her openly and honestly, and no one can gossip.
As a public servant, he naturally had to address the concerns and questions raised by the people and solve their problems.
Han Meili glared at Lin Baozhu resentfully.
"You can search us if you want, but if you don't find anything, don't blame me for suing you!"
"Whatever."
Seeing the police officer take his hat off the wall and leave, Lin Baozhu quickly raised her hand and said, "Comrade Police Officer, I'm a very observant person. I can spot anything unusual with just a glance."
She got Han Meili to the police station. No matter how it ends, the two are now mortal enemies. So, even if she doesn't have the chance, she'll create one to kill her.
When she visited Director Zhang's house last time, she accidentally found several foreign books in the cabinet. If their contents were translated... tsk tsk, the whole family would be in deep trouble.
Looking into Lin Baozhu's clear eyes, Wang Shunzheng said as if possessed, "More people mean more strength. Your keenness is perfect for being a policeman. Comrade, would you be interested in working for our police force?"
Lin Baozhu: ? ?
The captain was breathing rapidly, his eyes wide open.
Goodness, other people want a stable job, they have to take written tests and give gifts, and even then, they might not get it.
But Lin Baozhu came to the Public Security Bureau once, chattered on and on, and was immediately invited to have a government job.
Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable.
"Thank you, team leader, but I have a much heavier burden on my shoulders!"
The brigade leader nudged her with his elbow, "Silly girl, are you still being coy? Just agree to it, and the secure job will be yours. Then all those old women in the village will have nothing but praise for you."
How could you be so foolish? You don't even open your mouth when meat is practically placed right in front of you!
It's very difficult to get into government agencies like the public security bureau, procuratorate, and courts without connections. She was extended a warm invitation, but she refused…
"Comrade Kobayashi, let's hurry and go."
Lin Baozhu looked at the captain and said, "Captain, uncles, why don't you take a look around the police station? I'll be back soon."
"Hey! Go quickly and come back quickly."
*Han Meili's Home*
Lin Baozhu looked at the ordinary one-bedroom apartment, the cramped room filled with all sorts of miscellaneous things.
"You'd better be careful, don't break my things."
After Han Meili finished speaking, she gave Lin Baozhu a cold look, while Lin Baozhu waved her hand and looked around, glancing here and there.
Han Meili followed her the whole time, but Lin Baozhu didn't care.
"Team leader, nothing suspicious was found."
"I haven't found it here either."
Han Meili visibly exhaled, a moment captured by Lin Baozhu.
She tapped her hand on the messy wall. A normal person wouldn't be able to hear anything wrong, but her hearing and vision were extraordinary.
"Xiaotong, Zhi, we just checked this wall and there's nothing wrong with it."
“My house is only this big, and I don’t have any of those messy things. You should leave quickly. If you stay too long, the neighbors will think that my family has done something wrong.”
Although she knew that the wall was not easily noticed by ordinary people, her heart still trembled when Lin Baozhu drew the attention of the police officers.
Don't you know whether there's something wrong with this wall?
After saying that, she pointed to her nose and continued, "Can't you smell a faint stench?"
A flicker of panic crossed Han Meili's face, which even Wang Shunzheng noticed. He solemnly tapped the wall, but heard no empty sound. He couldn't help but look at Lin Baozhu...
What's the problem here?
Lin Baozhu didn't say anything upon hearing this, but took out a hammer from her small handbag...
Wang Shunzheng: "..."
Who in their family carries a hammer when they go out?
"Zhang Baikui hasn't been caught yet. A cute little girl like me has to carry something for self-defense when I go out."
After saying that, she raised her hand to smash the wall, but Han Meili suddenly shrank back. Before her brain could give the order, her body had already rushed forward.
Her expression had lost its composure. She glared at Lin Baozhu and said in a shrill voice, "Without evidence, you can't destroy my home."
Seeing Han Meili's flustered expression, Wang Shunzheng stared intently at the wall behind her and said, "Smash it! If there's nothing in the wall, I'm willing to apologize and compensate you!"
"Team leader, think it over."
What kind of world is this? They came to search Han Meili's house without a warrant, and after finding nothing, they listened to a comrade and smashed her wall. If Han Meili's family goes to the police station to make trouble, how can they be trusted by the people?
“I believe Comrade Kobayashi. If she says there’s a problem with the wall, then there must be a problem.”
If there's no problem, then it's his problem.
Seeing this, Lin Baozhu slammed the hammer in her hand against the wall.
With just one blow, cracks appeared in the wall. Then, blow after blow, in no more than five blows, a large hole was smashed in the wall. Wang Shun was staring at the wall fragment that had fallen to the ground, his pupils shrinking slightly. This wall fragment was at least fifty centimeters thick!
The small hammer only took five strikes to break a hole.
Just then, a startled cry rang out: "Team leader, there's... there's something going on."
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Shun looked into the hole in the wall and saw several corpses encased in cement in the concrete...
Seeing this, Han Meili broke down the door to escape, but was hit in the back of the knee by Lin Baozhu with a thermos, causing her to fall forward.
If Han Meili hadn't run away, she could have argued with the police, but by running away, she made it clear that she was trying to cover her tracks.
The police pinned Han Meili to the ground, and Wang Shunzheng ordered other police officers to guard the door while he escorted the unconscious Han Meili back to the police station.
On the way back, Wang Shunzheng looked at her several times: "Comrade Xiaolin, that wall is nearly fifty centimeters thick. Even if we men smashed it dozens of times, we wouldn't be able to break through. How did you do it? Also, how did you know there was a corpse inside the wall? The corpse was clearly integrated with the wall..."
Lin Baozhu looked at the man whose eyes were shining and said, "First question, I am naturally strong, and I can do things that you men cannot. Second question, I can smell a very faint stench, which is very similar to the stench of corpses in ponds in the mountains. Third question, my hearing is different from ordinary people, and I can hear sounds that you cannot hear."
