Chapter 57 He was also responsible for the robbery at the entrance of the village!
Tong Hongwen dared not say anything and was taken away by the police.
When he was taken away, he was seen by many people in the village. Soon the news that Tong Hongwen was taken away by the police spread throughout the village.
Although his evidence of guilt had not yet been determined, the fact in front of them was infinitely magnified by the villagers, making it sound incredible!
After Tong Hongwen was taken away, Tong Zhaodi immediately rushed to the field to shout: "Dad! Mom! Second brother! Go home quickly! Something happened at home!"
The family members who were busy in the field saw her anxious look and their hearts skipped a beat. They didn't care about the work in their hands and hurried back home.
After returning home, Tong Zhaodi told the whole story of Tong Hongwen being taken away by the police.
Tong Zhaodi: "He was taken away by the police at this time. I guess it is related to the recent thefts in the village!"
Tong Baotian was shaking with anger while sitting on a long bench: "This beast! Bastard! The Tong family has never produced anyone who can do such a sneaky thing! Where can the Tong family put their face now?!"
Wang Aiqin said contemptuously: "Oh, only he can do such a thing. I was wondering why every family was robbed but ours was fine. I was wondering if the thieves thought our family was too poor! It turned out to be... It was done by our family!"
Tong Liangcai angrily scolded: "You woman, if you don't say anything, no one will think you are dumb! Shut up!"
After hearing what Tong Zhaodi said, Wu Ping fell to the ground and cried: "Oh my God! The sky has fallen! What should we do? How could he think of doing something illegal! What does he want so much money for? !"
Tong Zhaodi: "Why do you want money? What else can he do? He must want to build a house and marry a wife!" As
soon as Tong Zhaodi said this, everything around was quiet. One
day a few months ago, Tong Hongwen came home and insisted on shouting that he liked a girl from the next village. She had good conditions and worked in the town. He said that her family said that if he wanted to marry Sun Fang, the family must build a new bungalow.
When the Tong family heard that he was a formal worker working in the factory in the town, they immediately put the matter of building a new house on the agenda. In
those days, as long as you could get a job as a formal worker in the factory, you would get at least 50 yuan a month. The Tong family must be thinking about it!
And Tong Hongwen and his family knew that he was just eating and drinking all day and didn't do any serious work. It was good enough for him to marry a girl, not to mention Sun Fang, who was so good at laying golden eggs.
But now think about it, Tong Hongwen has ended up like this today, and no one can blame him!
Tong Jianjun ignored the sighs of others and stood up and walked out the door.
Wu Ping: "Hongwen's father, where are you going now?"
Tong Jianjun: "It's better to go to the town to find out what's going on than to listen to your nonsense here! We have to see what's going on before we know how to help him!"
Tong Baotian also came to his senses at this time. No matter what, he still had to know what happened. He had to help if he could. After all, he was a descendant of the Tong family. If something really happened, the old Tong family couldn't stay in Qingshui Village anymore.
Tong Jianjun called the second son Tong Liangcai to rush to the town together.
Along the way, the two said nothing. They knew in their hearts that this matter was most likely a case, and it must have been done by the third son. Now they went just to let the big stone in their hearts fall down as soon as possible.
The two men arrived at the Public Security Bureau and saw a uniformed policeman, so they asked, "Hello, police comrade, may I ask what's the situation with Tong Hongwen who was brought here from Qingshui Town today? I'm his father, and I want to see what crime he has committed."
The policeman glanced at Tong Jianjun and said seriously, "Come with me."
Tong Jianjun and Tong Liangcai were taken to the office area. They sat at the desk, their hearts beating fast. The atmosphere in the office was serious, and the two men didn't dare to look around, but just sat there in a daze.
Police: "Are you Tong Hongwen's family?"
Tong Jianjun nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I am his father and this is his brother. Public Security Comrade, may I ask him...what crime has he committed?"
The police took out a stack of documents and placed them in front of the two men and said, "This is his confession. He was responsible for many of the thefts that occurred in your village recently."
Although he had already guessed that this was his masterpiece, Tong Jianjun's mind went blank when he heard it with his own ears!
Public Security: "He is very brave. You should have heard that many people in your village were robbed before, right? He was the leader!"
Hearing this, Tong Jianjun was horrified and said, "What? How is this possible? How could he be so brave!?"
Public Security: "He admitted it himself, how could it be false? You too, don't you know what your son is doing?"
Tong Liang came back to his senses and said, "Comrade Public Security, you just said that he was the leader of the robbery, then who else could it be? I know my brother, he is not smart enough, it must be some bastard who gave him the bad idea! You must investigate it carefully!"
Public Security sneered, "We will definitely investigate, but how to investigate is our business as Public Security, you don't need to ask too many questions."
Tong Jianjun was directly overwhelmed by the huge impact and didn't know what to do for a while.
Tong Liangcai had never seen his father so distraught, and his heart was filled with hatred towards Tong Hongwen and heartache for his father.
Tong Liangcai: "Comrade Public Security, how long will my brother be sentenced to in prison in this situation?"
Public Security: "It is not certain yet, but you should be prepared mentally, you will probably have to spend four or five years in prison."
Hearing what the public security said, Tong Jianjun rolled his eyes and fell off the stool.
When he woke up, it was already evening. Tong Liangcai helped him up and sighed, "Dad, let's go back." Tong
Jianjun said nothing, got up and walked out of the Public Security Bureau.
The two of them were full of worries along the way, walking on the small road in the field with two legs that seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. When the people in the village saw them, they all whispered to each other.
"Look, the youngest son of the Tong family has done so many bad things, and
he finally got his comeuppance!" "That's right, my relative is in the town's public security bureau, and I heard that this matter has become a big deal, and he was also responsible for the robbery at the entrance of the village!"
"What? Is it true? This third son is too brave!"
"Of course not! Look at how the old Tong family bullied the girl Tong, is this something a normal family would do? I think he deserves it!"
…………
The rumors in the village became more and more unpleasant, and the Tong family no longer had the face to interact with the people in the village.
Soon, the public security department came with news, confirming Tong Hongwen's theft and robbery, and sentenced him to five years for multiple crimes.
After hearing the news, the families whose things were stolen and those who were robbed before came to the Tong family. The Tong family was crowded with people and it was very lively.
Since Tong Hongwen had exchanged the stolen things for money before, the people who lost the things could not get them back. Fortunately, Tong Hongwen had not touched the money. The Tong family had to pay all the money back. Even so, it was not enough. The little money left in the family was lost!
Sun Fang also heard about Tong Hongwen's affairs. She just thought that this man was really stupid. How could he do something illegal?
Soon, she cut off her relationship with the Tong family and started dating someone else.
The Tong family was left with nothing. Tong Baotian and Wu Ping both fell seriously ill. The family had no money to pay for their medical treatment, so they could only continue to live with their sick bodies...
