People come and go like the wind at the casino.
They drove two vans and headed straight for Old Master Chen's house.
When they arrived, they didn't waste any time. They opened the door and started smashing things from bottom to top. Once they were done, they left.
When Wu An and his group came to join the fun, the entrance to Old Master Chen's house was already crowded with people, all looking into the messy courtyard.
Village committee members came and told everyone to stay away.
But who would listen?
No one from Old Master Chen's family was present. Some of the Chen family members from a slightly more distant area were there, but they were all there to watch the spectacle.
Wu An asked, "Didn't anyone call the police?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Wu An laughed. "Alright, alright, no one's calling the police, huh? Well then, I'm definitely going to be a member of the Chaoyang resident community."
He took out his phone.
Call Yu Kailang.
Upon learning of this, Yu Kailang rushed over immediately.
Liu Long was also there.
As the person who reported the incident, Wu An was the first to be questioned.
"I don't know what happened either. I came to visit relatives and just happened to run into this place, so I came to watch the fun."
“Someone wants to go into the yard, which could potentially damage the crime scene.”
"I saw that the village committee members couldn't stop them, and when I asked, I found out that no one had called the police."
"As you know, I'm a very helpful person, so I made the call."
After listening to Wu An's words, Liu Long and Yu Kailang nodded and praised him for doing a good job.
Wu An accepted it without hesitation.
Yu Kailang and Liu Long set up a cordon and warned everyone not to cause trouble or damage the scene, as they would also be held accountable.
The two walked into the courtyard.
There was a mess of things everywhere, including cabinets and beds, all of which had been moved out, smashed to pieces, and brought into the house.
The house was in even worse shape; it was visibly empty of all its valuables.
Even the eggs in the refrigerator were thrown on the ground and smashed to pieces.
Yu Kailang said, "This must be the casino owner's revenge."
Liu Long's expression was serious as he said, "About the hospital..."
"There are people watching over there."
"The Chen family has really had bad luck by offending those people."
"These people must be arrested."
"I hope so."
Liu Long sighed. Now that the casinos that were raided have been investigated, some people have already come forward to be convicted. If nothing unexpected happens, a final verdict will be reached soon.
As for the casino's real owners, they can get away with it.
And now.
The assault on Chen Baosheng in the hospital and the vandalism of his home were all acts of revenge and a warning from the casino owner.
It's fortunate that no one was killed.
The two took photos, completed the procedures, and asked around, but naturally, they didn't find a single useful clue.
Even if there are clues.
Following the clues, they could only catch small fry; the big fish were far beyond the reach of the two junior police officers from the local station.
Mr. and Mrs. Chen arrived late.
Seeing the state of her home, the woman couldn't hold back anymore. She sat down on the ground, slapping her thighs and wailing, "What a terrible thing! God, please open your eyes!"
Anyway, it's just those meaningless words.
The villagers watched, and most of them wore expressions of schadenfreude.
"It really is retribution."
"I never thought that Elder Chen would have such a day."
"Tsk tsk, with their arrogant attitude, they're bound to get into trouble sooner or later."
"That's right."
These people's gloating wasn't unfounded. Their area is mostly sea and mountains, with little usable arable land. Boss Chen, relying on his money and connections, has taken advantage of others on the land.
If you go to the village committee, you'll find that most of the members are surnamed Chen. If you go to the eldest member of the Chen family, they simply won't listen to reason.
Seeing how Boss Chen is now, if it weren't for the fact that he's right in front of us, we would all want to applaud and cheer.
Old Fu was a little flustered as he watched.
Others may not know, but he knows it best. Old Master Chen's family ended up like this because of Wu An's actions.
It's all for him!
If anything were to happen, he would be willing to die rather than resign!
He could only pray silently that nothing would happen to Wu An, and that if anything did, it would be directed at him.
Wu An watched, secretly alarmed.
No wonder they're the kind of people who make money by using criminal law. They just blew up the place yesterday, and today the retaliation comes. It's only been one day.
He was unaware of Chen Baosheng's ordeal in the hospital and was still wondering if the casino owner had caused someone's death.
Even if someone dies, it's Chen Baosheng's own fault.
He never schemed against anyone, nor did he ever provoke trouble.
In the short two months since his rebirth, he has only done one thing: try his best to make up for the mistakes he made before.
He just wanted to make his life, his family's life, and the lives of those around him better than in his previous life.
However, things kept happening one after another, and even so, he didn't actively try to get back at anyone; he mostly reacted passively.
To be fair, from a legal perspective, his actions should be considered legitimate self-defense.
He still has the truth about Lin Bin cheating on Lin Hu, but he has kept quiet about it.
Why?
Ultimately, he was still a kind person.
Boss Chen told Yu Kailang and Liu Long to leave, making it clear that he didn't want the police to get involved.
“This won’t do you any good. You should cooperate with our investigation and bring the murderer to justice. That will be good for you and your son.”
Yu Kailang said somewhat angrily.
Boss Chen sneered, "I have nothing to say to you bunch of trash."
"Don't think I don't know you're all in cahoots."
"If you were of any use, my son wouldn't have..."
He didn't finish his sentence.
This made the villagers who were watching the spectacle very frustrated. They had only heard half of the gossip and then didn't get to hear the rest, which was really disheartening.
"Brother Chen, what happened to your son?"
"Is Baosheng alright? I was thinking of visiting him at the hospital when I have time."
Everyone shouted at once.
Annoyed, Boss Chen yelled, "Get out! All of you, get out!"
Yu Kailang wanted to say something more, but Liu Long stopped him.
In a sense, what Boss Chen said was not wrong; Boss Chen did this because he did not want to be bothered again.
That's correct.
If Boss Chen were to beg them to bring the murderer to justice in public, he would likely face even fiercer retaliation.
Boss Chen backed down and wanted to settle things peacefully, but he didn't know if the big boss behind the casino would agree.
After they left, the villagers who had come to watch the spectacle also left.
Wu An followed her back to the Mei family home, and secretly gave Mei Xiaoxiao a red envelope before leaving.
Mei Xiaoxiao was very happy: "Thank you, Uncle An."
Nothing happened along the way.
Back home, without much delay, I called Old Fu after getting inside.
Old Fu had made several phone calls, but his brother and sister-in-law were both there and he didn't answer.
It was clear that Old Fu was very flustered.
"Old Fu, don't worry, this matter is now considered closed."
"They smashed your windows, so we smashed theirs too. That's it!"
"As for the rest, it has absolutely nothing to do with us."
"The Chen family has had such a big incident, they shouldn't be in trouble for a while."
