“Ah… Linley, you bastard, I’m not done with you.”
Lin Huo ran to the living room and said angrily: "Go to the newspaper early tomorrow morning and put an advertisement. We must not have anything to do with this bad guy Lin Lei. Even if he dies, he has nothing to do with our family. From now on, it's either him or me in this family. Even if he gets out, he will never be allowed to enter the house." After saying this, Lin Huo returned to his room.
Li Erzhi: "Lao Lin, are we really going to put an advertisement in the newspaper tomorrow to sever ties with A Lei? I'm going to go and beg Jiang Shushu now. I'll kneel down before her and ask her to let A Lei go."
Father Lin: "Don't you think it's too late for you to say all this? You've already said that A Lei said it was Jiang Shushu who beat him and asked the police to arrest Jiang Shushu. Do you think Jiang Shushu will let A Lei go? Before, it was just a show, but Jiang Shushu didn't let A Lei go. Now A Lei wants someone to break her legs. How could she let A Lei go? Don't humiliate yourself."
Father Lin sighed. "Tomorrow I'll go to the machinery factory and ask if Are really sold his job. If he does, for our future safety, we'll put an announcement in the newspaper tomorrow to sever ties with him."
"Lao Lin, I can't bear to..."
"I'm reluctant, but I have to. Look at how chaotic things are out there. If word gets out about A Lei, and we haven't severed our ties with him, do you believe we'll have to go and accompany him in a few days? Do you want to be paraded through the streets at your age? Or sent to a farm to do hard labor? Even if we don't think about ourselves, we have to think about Ah Huo, so this relationship must be severed."
Li Erzhi no longer objected, but just shed tears silently.
After get off work, Jiang Shushu went home as usual. However, when he was almost home, he saw Wang Bei and two policemen standing not far from his door.
When Jiang Shushu saw Wang Bei and the others, he knew that they must have come with bad intentions, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people, and the meeting would be so formal, and at this time.
The fact that Wang Bei and the others came to look for me must be related to the beating of Lin Lei. They probably suspected that I was the one who did it. Fortunately, just in case, I got up in the morning and put away all the things that shouldn’t be there, filling up the small space.
Jiang Shushu pretended to be clueless and walked over to Wang Bei and the others. "Hello, Public Security Comrades! Is there any progress on the case?"
Wang Bei: "There is progress. Lin Lei has confessed. He was the one who hired those thugs to break your legs in revenge for the time you sent him to jail."
Jiang Shushu angrily said, "I knew it was him. He's full of evil intentions. Have you arrested Lin Lei? Officer Wang, this guy must not be let off. He's an absolute nuisance if he gets away. He's not just trying to break my legs, he's trying to kill me. This is murder, right? I'm going to sue him. People like him should spend the rest of their lives in jail."
"We haven't caught Linley yet. We have to wait a little longer."
"Why wait? Isn't the evidence irrefutable? This kind of scourge should be apprehended immediately."
"Lin Lei is injured. We have to wait until he's better before we can catch him."
"What kind of injury? Could it be that Linley is faking it? He's full of evil intentions, and eight out of ten things he says are lies."
"Lin Lei was ambushed. Not only was all his money stolen, but he was also beaten. Worst of all, his genitals were injured. He's currently receiving treatment in the hospital. The doctor said that for safety reasons, he needs to remain in the hospital for three more days for observation before he can leave."
"Who has he offended again? I really want to destroy him."
Wang Bei suddenly asked, "Lin Lei said he saw you hitting him, right?"
Jiang Shushu: “…” What nonsense! If he could see me from that angle, unless he has eyes on the back of his head, even if Lin Lei wants to frame me, it depends on whether I admit it or not.
Jiang Shushu was confused at first, then incredulous, and finally furious. "Nonsense, who beat him? I want to confront him face to face. Officer Wang, tell me, where was he beaten? When was he beaten? You want to frame me? No way." Wang Bei was really cunning. He deliberately took Lin Lei by surprise and even deliberately left out the time when he was beaten so that he would be exposed in a hurry.
Wang Bei: “…” He’d been observing Jiang Shushu the entire time, and there wasn’t anything suspicious about her. She genuinely seemed unaware of Lin Lei’s injuries. Even when he deliberately tried to trick her, her expression and responses were flawless. Was he overthinking it? Did this incident have anything to do with Jiang Shushu?
"Last night around 10 o'clock, near the machinery factory's family compound."
"10pm? I was asleep by then. I came back after recording my statement last night, then quickly showered and went to bed. Oh, by the way, when I came back, the lights in my next-door neighbor Zhao's house were still on. My bike broke when I hit those hooligans, and it was too late, so no one fixed it. It made a rattling noise when I pushed it. If they weren't asleep, they must have heard the noise, or someone nearby should have heard it too. You can go ask them. My bike is still in the repair shop, so you can ask the repairman."
Wang Bei said, "Okay, I'll ask. Comrade Jiang, Lin Lei insists you were the one who beat him, and this case has such a serious impact. The director wants us to solve it within five days, so we need to search your residence. I hope you'll cooperate."
"Yes, it's the duty of every citizen to assist the police in their investigation. Although I don't like Lin Lei and think he deserves the beating, one thing is for sure. The murderer must be arrested."
"Thank you, Comrade Jiang, for your understanding and cooperation."
"You're welcome. It's my duty. My father taught me to love the country and the party, and to abide by laws. You are serving the people, the party and the country. Helping you is equivalent to helping the party and the country. I'm happy and proud to be able to contribute to the country." How dare you doubt me, a good person and a good citizen like me?
Jiang Shushu took Wang Bei and the others home without hesitation. "Officer Wang, this is my room, and that's my parents' room. They come to stay here occasionally. I don't know what you want to check. Feel free to do whatever you want. I'll just watch from the side. If there's anything you need my cooperation with, just let me know."
"Okay, let's start in your room, okay?"
"Can."
Wang Bei and the other two carefully checked every corner of Jiang Shushu's house and left only after finding nothing suspicious.
Huang Hui: "We came unexpectedly, so Comrade Jiang couldn't have prepared in advance. There's nothing suspicious about Comrade Jiang's home right now, so it's unlikely she was the one who attacked Lin Lei. Comrade Jiang's home only had a little over 100 yuan, which is a far cry from the 900 yuan Lin Lei claimed. Furthermore, I've examined every note, and none of them have the markings Lin Lei mentioned."
