On the second floor of the textile factory's tube building, the corridor was in chaos.
As soon as Zhou Yunwan walked down the stairs, she was blocked by a crowd of people in the corridor. Following the crowd's line of sight, she saw two women fighting with each other and a young man trying to separate them.
It is not uncommon for conflicts to arise between neighbors when they live close to each other.
Zhou Yunwan frowned and looked away, not wanting to watch the fun. While saying "make way", she squeezed through the gap and inadvertently saw the face of one of the women.
His brows suddenly furrowed deeper.
She really didn't expect to meet Shen Shuxian here.
Zhou Yunwan took another closer look and realized that the young man next to her was the little boy who had teased her at the skating rink before. That is Shen Yanli's relative, the younger cousin.
It's just that he had a buzz cut and was wearing a military uniform, so she didn't recognize him at first.
I think his name is Wang Jianyong?
...
...
Is he Shen Shuxian's son?
While I was in a daze, I didn't know what the two parties said to each other, but I heard Shen Shuxian shouting angrily, "Kill you shameless vixen!" Then she broke free from Wang Jianyong's obstruction and rushed towards another younger woman.
Zhou Yunwan was standing high up and could see clearly. At the moment when Shen Shuxian rushed towards the young woman, the young woman looked downstairs and then a slight curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Zhou Yunwan followed her line of sight and saw two police officers in uniform. She immediately had a bad feeling in her subconscious, but Shen Shuxian obviously didn't notice it. She rushed up regardless and grabbed the other person's head and was about to hit her.
The young woman anticipated this opportunity and pounced on Shen Shuxian. In the chaotic tug of war, she did not hesitate to crash into the wall.
"Be careful!" Zhou Yunwan blurted out subconsciously.
However, it was too late. Due to inertia, Shen Shuxian and the young woman fell to the ground together.
When Shen Shuxian struggled to get up and looked at Wen Xiaojuan, she found that her forehead and face were covered in blood.
After a brief silence, someone shouted, "Ahhhh, blood!"
At this time, there was a commotion at the bottom of the stairs. Zhou Yunwan looked over and saw a middle-aged woman leading two police officers approaching this side. "Quick! Police comrades, someone wants to kill my daughter!"
He looked anxious, as if he knew in advance that a murder would be discovered here.
The two police officers also noticed the noise coming from this side and rushed over in a few steps. The crowd watching the show instantly dispersed to make way for the police.
In the corridor, Shen Shuxian was already terrified. She looked at the blood on Wen Xiaojuan's face in disbelief and was pulled aside by her own son.
The middle-aged woman who had just come upstairs saw the scene in front of her. She was not surprised at all, nor did she immediately step forward to care for her daughter. Instead, she pointed at Shen Shuxian and said firmly: "It's her! Public Security Comrade, she is the one who wants to kill my daughter."
Shen Shuxian came back to her senses and shook her head desperately to deny: "No, it's not me, I didn't."
"You said you didn't do it in front of the police. My daughter's face was covered in blood."
Wen Xiaojuan covered her forehead and leaned against the wall, as if eager to convict Shen Shuxian. She echoed her mother's words, "Comrade Public Security, she suddenly rushed into our house and beat me as soon as she entered the door. Now she is pressing my head against the wall. The neighbors have seen it and can all testify for me."
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers echoed them.
"Xiaojuan is right. I saw with my own eyes that woman banging Xiaojuan's head against the wall!"
"I saw that, too."
Wen Xiaojuan's voice sounded particularly weak because of the pain. The victim and the onlookers' identification sounded very credible. It was suspected that someone was murdered. The two police officers immediately walked towards Shen Shuxian and said, "Comrade, please come back to the police station with us to cooperate with the investigation."
"I didn't kill her, I didn't press her head against the wall... I don't know what happened." For the first time in her life, Shen Shuxian realized what it meant to be unable to explain and what it meant to be at a loss.
When she was about to be taken away by the police, Zhou Yunwan chose to stand up and said, "Public security comrades, I also saw the whole process. I think she might not have done it on purpose, but accidentally."
As soon as these words were spoken, almost everyone looked at Zhou Yunwan at the door.
Tian Chunyan didn't expect someone to speak up for Shen Shuxian. Her expression changed. Could it be that this girl in front of her saw something?
A trace of guilt flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously glanced at her daughter. She said that this method was too risky, but her daughter insisted on her own way, so she could only do as she wished.
If they succeed, at best, her daughter will be the new mistress of the Wang family, living in a big house, driving a car, eating and drinking the best food. Even if they fail, they will still be able to extort a large sum of money in the end.
Thinking of this, Tian Chunyan raised her voice and asked, "Who are you? There are so many people watching, and you actually said it was an accident?"
Zhou Yunwan looked at the bewildered Tian Chunyan and raised her eyebrows sarcastically, thinking that this mother and daughter were really ruthless and had really good means. They made such a big mistake and put the blame on Shen Shuxian in order to gain power.
Shen Shuxian was also simple-minded and strong-limbed, and she was blinded by anger. The other party's simple provocation was enough to control her, and she actually rushed forward.
However, no one would have thought that the other party would resort to such a shady trick and even called the police in advance. It was really hard to guard against.
There were no cameras back then, so if someone was really framed, there would be no way to defend themselves, especially since Shen Shuxian and the young woman had been arguing for so long, and almost everyone around them knew that the two had a conflict first. It was not impossible that Shen Shuxian killed someone out of hatred.
After sorting out her thoughts, Zhou Yunwan said in a calm tone: "I just said it might be an accident, but I didn't say it was certain."
Tian Chunyan sneered, "Haha, female comrade, is there anyone who speaks up for a murderer like you?"
"What kind of murderer? Your daughter isn't even dead yet. How can you curse your own daughter like that?"
"You!" Tian Chunyan and Wen Xiaojuan's faces changed.
"Comrade Public Security, what I saw was that although the two people started fighting, when the younger female comrade hit the wall, the other party had already let go of the hand that was holding her hair."
"But she said that the other party held her head and slammed her against the wall, which caused her injury. I think this statement does not match the reality I saw. Of course, it is also possible that I saw it wrong."
As soon as these words were spoken, someone in the crowd echoed them.
"Hiss, now that this lady comrade said that, it seems to be true."
"Yes, I also saw that the other party had let go."
The two sides had different opinions, and the police officer didn't know who to believe for a moment. "In this case, I will take this female comrade to the hospital to treat the wound on her head. You guys can go to the police station with my colleagues."
Seeing that the police officers were wavering, Tian Chunyan quickly stepped forward and grabbed one of them by the arm, saying with tears in her eyes, "Public security officers, look at the wounds on my daughter's face. They were all caused by this woman."
"And she has said more than once that she wanted to beat my daughter to death. If it wasn't her, who else could have done it?"
