Chapter 99: Do they still have the nerve to ask us?

~7 min read 1,223 words

Hearing Bang Geng's words, the police nodded and said:

"Nobody said you stole it."

"Just say how the chicken came to be, that's enough."

Bang Geng thought for a moment, then said:

"After school today, I saw a chicken in the front courtyard."

"If I didn't catch it, it would have run away."

Hearing this, Qin Huairu couldn't help but think, "It's over."

Shazhu finally let out a sigh of relief.

The police asked, "Do you know whose chicken this is?"

Bang Geng glanced at Qin Huairu and said:

"Well, it seems to be Xu Damao's chicken."

Police: "You're not sure?"

Bang Geng thought for a moment and shook his head.

He certainly knew it was Xu Damao's chicken.

In fact, he caught it from Xu Damao's chicken coop.

How could he not know?

The police again asked, "Was anyone watching when you caught it?"

Bang Geng: "At the time, my two sisters were following me."

The police turned to Xiao Dang and asked:

"Little sister, do you know whose chicken your brother caught?"

Xiao Dang lowered her head and said:

"Yes, yes, it's Xu Damao's."

Xiao Dang personally saw Bang Geng steal the chicken from Xu Damao's coop, so of course she knew.

The police looked around at everyone and said loudly:

"Alright, this case is now quite clear."

"We now need to take Jiageng back for a statement."

Hearing this, Jia Zhangshi suddenly rushed out, embraced Bang Geng, and cried out:

"My eldest grandson said he didn't steal the chicken."

"He caught it; if he didn't, it would have run away."

"Why are you still taking him away?"

The police, laughing and crying, said: "Auntie, this counts as stealing."

Jia Zhangshi shouted: "How can that be considered stealing?"

"That chicken was about to run off; if he didn't catch it back, it would get lost."

"He was learning Lei Feng's spirit, doing a good deed."

Hearing this, the scene couldn't help but stir.

This Jia Zhangshi is really shameless.

Qin Huairu took a deep breath, looked at the police, and said:

"Officer, if Xu Damao withdraws the complaint, does that mean Bang Geng doesn't have to be taken away?"

Police: "The case has already been filed."

"As a suspect, Jiageng must come with us."

"Considering Jiageng's young age, we mainly focus on education."

"Of course, if the parties withdraw the complaint and choose forgiveness, his charge will be much lighter."

"As for whether he'll be sent to the juvenile detention center, that depends on our superiors."

"We are only responsible for investigation and apprehending suspects."

"The decision rests with our superiors."

"There's a precondition: the parties must forgive and withdraw the complaint."

"Only then might Jiageng avoid being sent to the juvenile detention center."

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhangshi suddenly fell to her knees with a thud before Xu Damao, begging tearfully:

"Xu Damao, please forgive Bang Geng."

"He's still young; he can't be sent to juvenile detention."

Xu Damao filed the report just to deal with Shazhu.

Now that Shazhu's suspicion has been cleared, he doesn't want to pursue it further.

After all, Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu are not pushovers.

Moreover, he still has feelings for Qin Huairu.

If he doesn't choose forgiveness, he and Qin Huairu will become mortal enemies.

If he wants to take advantage of Qin Huairu, that's impossible.

Furthermore, if he offends Jia Zhangshi, who knows how she'll retaliate later.

Jia Zhangshi's mind is quite narrow.

He let out a long sigh and then said:

"Forget it, I won't argue with a child."

I guess I'll understand then.

However, you must compensate me with a chicken.

Qin Huairu exclaimed excitedly: "Fine, fine, fine, I'll go back to the countryside tomorrow and bring you an old hen."

The chicken-stealing matter, with Xu Damao choosing to forgive, also came to a close.

Xu Damao was very disappointed.

However, he felt he still gained something.

At least he knew Lin Shengli meant well for him.

As long as he could befriend Lin Shengli, enjoying the good life thereafter would be no problem.

He even suddenly had an idea pop into his mind.

If they go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow and Lou Xiao'e can't bear children, it's his problem.

He was thinking of borrowing Lin Shengli to fulfill his wish of becoming a father.

Lin Shengli is so outstanding; any child he fathers would surely be outstanding too.

If he had a child with Lou Xiao'e, she would surely not divorce him.

If they divorced, his life would be over thereafter.

If he can't have children, which woman would be willing to marry him?

Wouldn't he then be constantly mocked by Shazhu?

Of course.

If he had no problem, he would immediately choose to divorce Lou Xiao'e.

If he's fine, then Lou Xiao'e must be the one with the problem.

The next day.

Xu Damao went to the hospital for a check-up early in the morning.

Upon learning the result, he instantly collapsed.

The problem truly lay with him.

Moreover, the doctor said that with current technology, it's basically impossible for him to have children in his lifetime.

"Shazhu, you damn well wait for me."

"If I don't avenge this grudge, I'll damn well take your surname."

Gritting his teeth and speaking fiercely, Xu Damao left the hospital.

On the way back, he kept thinking about how to take revenge more safely.

After all, he's no match for Shazhu.

His wish is to make Shazhu unable to have children for life.

Best to cripple that thing of Shazhu's.

If he acts like a brute, following Shazhu with a knife.

Not saying he isn't a match for Shazhu.

Even if he gets lucky and gets his revenge.

He would still end up eating prison food.

Then his life would be over as well.

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Lin Shengli was leisurely sitting in the office drinking tea when Deputy Factory Director Li came over.

"Section Chief Lin, the client from Xiaorizi just called."

"They said the machine broke down, they tried but couldn't fix it no matter what."

"They mean they want you to come over and take a look."

Lin Shengli smiled.

"Even Xiaorizi has come to us for help."

"Oh, right, all expenses for going to Xiaorizi, including travel costs, will be covered by them."

Lin Shengli nodded and said:

"Alright, I've arranged my work for today; I'll set off tomorrow."

Deputy Factory Director Li: "Shengli, how about I go with you?"

"I've never been to Xiaorizi before."

Lin Shengli: "Director Li, I want to bring a friend tomorrow."

"Anyway, all the expenses are covered by Xiaorizi."

"If you want to come along, that's fine too."

Deputy Factory Director Li smiled and said:

"I understand, I understand."

Then.

Approaching Lin Shengli, he asked:

"Are you thinking of bringing Fengxia along?"

Lin Shengli shook his head and said:

"I'm not close enough with her to call her a friend."

Deputy Factory Director Li nodded: "Alright, I got it."

"I suppose she's a close female confidante, so I won't tag along, haha."

Lin Shengli smiled without speaking.

Deputy Factory Director Li: "Then I won't disturb you; I'll go first."

Lin Shengli: "Ah, Factory Director Li, take care."

He had already thought it through.

Taking this opportunity, I'll take Zheng Juan out.

Just treat it as a trip to unwind.
