"Hey, I thought something happened again, and now I'm all nervous."
"Who says it's not? I am the same."
Some people breathed a sigh of relief, while others were very nervous.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Jiang Zhoushi asked his men to bring Wen Niang over.
When some people saw Wen Niang being brought up, many of them had puzzled expressions on their faces. Those who had gone up the mountain to look for their children and had seen her all had gloomy faces and eyes full of anger. Of course, some people were also terrified.
But he quickly calmed down and kept backing away, thinking that if he stood back, Wen Niang would not be able to see him anymore.
But he didn't realize that there was already someone standing on the platform who noticed his little action. Jiang Zhoushi quickly signaled the people around him to bring the person to the front.
Wen Niang had looked at a lot of people but hadn't seen that person yet. In this very tense atmosphere, she was a little anxious, and cold sweat kept coming out of her face.
She actually just joined this kidnapping team this year. This was her second time, but she didn't expect to be defeated by such a small team.
After being arrested, she was very panicked and kept begging for mercy. Finally, she heard the female police officer say that if she told the truth, her sentence could be reduced.
So she immediately told everything she knew, and also told the truth about the child being abducted. As for the rest, she didn't know.
The other three people were responsible for contacting the superiors, and it was not something a little woman like her could participate in.
After checking with most of the team and not seeing the man, Wen Niang began to wonder if the man was from a different team. If she hadn't caught him, could her sentence be reduced? She didn't want to spend her whole life in prison.
Jiang Zhoushi also came to Wen Niang's side at this time, pointing at the man not far away and asked, "Is it him?"
Wen Niang followed his gaze and, once she saw the man clearly, nodded excitedly. "Yes, that's him. He sold the child to me and charged me 20 yuan."
"You're talking nonsense. I don't even know you. How can I sell the child to you?" The person being pointed at pretended to be calm and replied loudly.
How could Wen Niang miss this opportunity at this time? She excitedly assured: "It's him. If you don't believe me, I like to draw a mark on the lower left corner of the back of the money that goes out of my hands. Sir, if you don't believe me, you can lose weight."
When everyone heard this, they were all confused. Those who were nearby quickly searched him and soon found dozens of dollars on him.
They did find two 10-yuan notes with marks on the back, which made the villagers, who hated the kidnapper, start insulting the man immediately.
"Well, you are such a scoundrel, you kidnapped a child and even got involved in the brigade. Tell me, have you done this kind of thing before? How can you be worthy of your ancestors?"
"I didn't, it wasn't me." The man called Tian Mangfu was still unwilling to admit it at this time.
"Who else could it be if not you? This kidnapper can even see what the money in your pocket looks like. And your family is so poor that you can't even afford to marry a wife. How do you have so much money?"
"Yeah, Zhuzi just found dozens of dollars. His house is so bad that even a mouse would say it's bad luck if it entered. How could he have so much money?"
"Who knows? He might be doing something shady, maybe even selling a child. I thought he was honest and wanted to find him a wife, but now I think it's bad luck."
"Who says it's not? I used to feed him when he was little. Now I feel sick just thinking about it. I should have given the food to the dog. The dog would have helped catch mice. It would have been a waste to feed him."
Tian Mangfu listened to the accusations of the crowd, but still gritted his teeth and refused to admit it, saying, "If it weren't me, how could I have done such a thing?"
"The evidence is irrefutable, yet you're still stubborn."
"People like him should be sent to a farm for forced labor. Fortunately, no girl married him, otherwise she would have been in trouble."
Tian Mangfu listened to the villagers accusing each other one by one, and his eyes became red with anger.
Jiang Zhoushi didn't care about all this at this time. He immediately had him arrested. As for whether he had other accomplices, he would go back for further interrogation.
Tian Mangfu watched as the crowd tied him up. No matter how he struggled, he could not break free from the rope. He was very regretful at this moment, but he saw the culprit watching the show not far away.
Thinking that it was because of her instigation that he did such a thing, and that this person was just watching the show and didn't speak up for him, he shouted loudly in anger without caring about anything.
"Officer, I have an accomplice. It was her, that educated young man Jiang, who asked me to do this. She came to me and gave me extra money. She also gave me the child and asked me to sell it to the kidnapper."
Tian Mangfu's words shocked everyone present, but soon someone reacted and asked, "Which educated youth are you talking about? A man or a woman?"
"Yes, yes. There are two educated youth in our brigade with the same surname. Which one are you talking about?"
"It was that woman. She came to me five days ago before dark and asked me to help her with this matter. She also said she would give me a large sum of money so that I could get married."
When Jiang Zhengfang heard that this idiot had actually given him away, he cursed in his heart.
But she quickly calmed down, thinking about the good reputation she had maintained in the team during this period, and this situation was also useful.
Before she could even explain, many people came to her defense.
"How could it be Jiang Zhengfang, the educated youth? You weren't arrested and you're trying to find someone to take the blame for it!"
"That's right, Zhengfang, the educated youth, is such a nice person."
