When Wang Bei told Lin Lei this news, Lin Lei was still full of disbelief.
"If it's not Jiang Shushu? Then who is it? She is the one who has the biggest grudge against me."
Wang Bei, "Other people have alibis, so I won't say anything. You keep saying that Jiang Shushu beat you. What evidence do you have? First, there are no witnesses, and second, there is no physical evidence. We've questioned everyone, and no one has seen Jiang Shushu leave the house. You said there was a mark on the money, but we searched Jiang Shushu's house and didn't find any money with the mark you mentioned."
Lin Lei: "Impossible, it must be Jiang Shushu. My intuition is right."
"What we want is evidence, not your intuition. You said you saw Jiang Shushu hit you, but did you really see it? We went to the scene where you fainted and saw the person who hit you hiding in the bushes. It would be impossible for a normal person to see him walking there. As long as that person has some skills, it would be easy to knock someone unconscious in that position without being noticed."
Lin Lei: "Alright, since you said it wasn't Jiang Shushu, then find the person who hit me."
Wang Bei: "We'll do our best to investigate. After all, Jiang Shushu isn't the only enemy you have. You've repeatedly approached thugs, and you've been so generous with your actions. Is it any wonder you're being targeted by others?"
Lin Lei: “…” Could it really not be Jiang Shushu? No, it had to be her. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be such a coincidence that those 11 people were arrested and then beaten up right after.
Wang Bei ignored Lin Lei's dissatisfied look and went out to investigate the case.
On the other hand, Lin's father went to the machinery factory early in the morning to inquire about Lin Lei's resale of his job. When Lin's father confirmed that Lin Lei had indeed sold his job, he immediately blamed Lin Lei in his heart, blaming him for being too heartless and cruel.
Then, Lin's father went to the newspaper office without looking back, and without any hesitation, he published a statement in the newspaper to sever ties with Lin Lei. He even paid extra money to expedite the publication of the statement so that it would appear in tomorrow's newspaper.
Father Lin returned to the Lin family dejectedly and told Lin Huo and Li Erzhi what he had done, asking them to be mentally prepared to be questioned tomorrow.
Lin Huo: "Dad, please think of a way to find me a job as soon as possible, otherwise I will have to go to the countryside."
"Dad will find a way." Father Lin said and returned to his room.
Father Lin lay in bed and thought for a while, and felt that Lin Huo was his only son now, and he must stay by his side.
Father Lin stood up and wanted to exchange one of his gold bars for money so that he could buy Lin Huo a job at a high price. However, when he opened the place where he hid his private money, he found it was empty.
"ah……"
Lin Huo and Li Erzhi heard the sound and hurried into the room.
Father Lin looked at Lin Huo and Li Erzhi with anger on his face, "Tell me, which of you took my money?"
Li Erzhi, "Lao Lin, what money? Isn't our family's money in my hands?"
Seeing that Li Erzhi was completely unaware, Father Lin immediately looked at Lin Huo.
Lin Huo jumped up immediately, "Dad, why are you looking at me? I didn't take your money, how would I know where you keep it? Your room is usually locked, I can't get in even if I want to!"
Lin Huo seemed to have suddenly realized something. "It must be Lin Lei. Selling a job requires a household registration book. Lin Lei has been in your room. Lin Lei dared to sell his job and was about to leave the country. It's no surprise that he stole money from home." Then Lin Huo looked anxious. "Dad, how much money did you lose? Is the remaining money enough for me to buy a job?"
"It's all gone. If you can't find it, forget about your job. I'm going to find Lin Lei."
Lin's father came to the hospital and wanted to talk to Lin Lei alone, but the police did not agree, so Lin's father could only talk to Lin Lei from a distance.
"Alei, did you secretly take all the money from home?"
Linley played dumb. "What money? I've never touched any of our family's money."
"Then how did you get your household registration booklet?"
"The day you advised me, you forgot to lock your room door, so I went in to take it. I only took the household registration book and never touched your money."
Father Lin didn't believe Lin Lei's words. "How much money did you lose?"
"900 yuan."
"Where do you get so much money?"
"I earned 600 yuan from selling my work, plus the educated youth allowance, and the rest is what I saved from working over the past few years. If you've lost your money, I suggest you ask Lin Huo, after all, he's a bit of a thief."
Father Lin: “…” Both sons said it was the other, so who took it?
Lin's father played the emotional card and said, "Alei, that's all the family savings. Your mother is sick and needs money urgently."
"Dad, look at me now, what's the point of you telling me all this? Mom is sick, you can borrow from your colleagues, or you can advance your salary. My 900 yuan was robbed by someone else. If the police find it back, then you can come to the police station to collect it." Anyway, the money has nothing to do with me, how much I can get depends on my ability.
Police: What are you dreaming of? It's not certain whether we can get that 900 yuan back. Even if we do, won't you have to pay for it first? Comrade Jiang's bicycle fee, and our police's medical expenses.
Father Lin: "I know it's you. Tell me where you hid the family money. Since your mother and I raised you, you should return half of it." I only want gold bars.
"Dad, I didn't even take it, how can I pay it back? My money has been taken away by others, you can borrow from someone else." Lin Lei lay back on the bed after saying this, as if he didn't want to communicate.
When Lin Huo found out that his family had no money to buy him a job, he almost went crazy. He frantically forced Lin Li to go back to her husband's house and get her original job back. Lin Li was so scared that she didn't dare to go back to her parents' house and could only hide at home.
After Lin Lei felt better, he was immediately taken back to the Public Security Bureau. When he felt better again, he would set off for the farm.
The case of Lin Lei being beaten was never found and the murderer was eventually left unresolved.
Early that morning, Jiang Shushu was making breakfast in the kitchen. When she saw Jiang He open the door and come in, she immediately made a little more.
"Dad, please sit down for a while. You can have breakfast in ten minutes."
"Okay, Dad, there's no rush. Take your time."
The father and daughter ate and chatted.
"Dad, how is Li Chunyan doing recently?"
"She's been trying to get close to your mom every day. I even asked your cousin to keep us away from her. She's like a sticky candy, running to our house as soon as she gets off work. It's so annoying that we won't even open the door for her now. Your cousin recently transferred Li Chunyan to the Huahe Brigade."
"Didn't they say that it can't be easily transferred?"
"It's temporary, just for half a month. One-fifth of our team members have gone. They will be back after the busy farming season is over."
"Why do so many people need to go to the Huahe Brigade?"
