Chapter 74 Reporting

Wang wiped his tears, crying so hard that he was out of breath.

The doctor just said that Zhou Huaihai would have to be kept on the bed for at least half a year before he could completely recover.

Even if you are unconscious, it will last for four or five days.

It's all that piece of paper that causes trouble!

If it weren't for that piece of paper, there wouldn't be such a mess!

"Dad, it's urgent. Let's get the paper back quickly, otherwise we will be restrained by them everywhere in the future, and Brother Yuan will be affected."

Sun cried, "Yes, get that piece of paper back!"

Mr. Zhou sat there with a dark face, pinching his fist tightly, "I'll think about it carefully."

"What else do you think? If you are like this, you are still thinking about that evil!" Sun suddenly roared.

Mr. Zhou glared at Sun angrily, "Don't you think about it, can you backfire again?"

"What does it mean to be self-defeating? Are you blaming Haizi for saying this? Haizi has become like this, and you still blame him. Why is your heart so cruel? If it weren't for that little beast, Haizi would be like this!"

Mr. Zhou made Sun arguing so much that his mind hurt.

Huo stood up and looked at Sun with a dark face.

"You have a way. You can take the paper back now! If you can't get it back, just shut up! If you are so noisy, can the paper fly back by yourself?"

Mr. Zhou yelled, and even though Sun was angry, he shut up.

Just sitting there and crying.

Mr. Zhou sighed heavily.

"When Haizi wakes up, I will discuss this with him. At present, the most important thing is Haizi's health. The eldest daughter-in-law. Please take good care of him and don't fall into any root cause."

Wang wiped his tears and said, "I understand, dad."

Mr. Zhou glanced at Zhou Huaihai and went out with a calm face and hands behind his back.

Seeing that Mr. Zhou was about to leave, Sun hurriedly said, "Where are you going?"

Mr. Zhou didn't look back and said angrily: "County government office."

County government residence.

The county magistrate was hearing his subordinates report that Zhou Huaihai was beaten, and it was rumored outside that Zhou Bingde asked for a meeting.

The county magistrate politely invited Mr. Zhou in and personally brought the tea.

Mr. Zhou's resentment was slightly dissipated when he was able to receive such treatment in the county magistrate's mansion.

I sat at the table in a hurry, rubbing my hands on my thighs, and didn't know how to speak, but I just looked down at the tea leaves rolling in the tea cup.

The county magistrate looked at Mr. Zhou and smiled just right at the corner of his mouth.

"I have heard about Zhou Huaihai. There is no see bandits in Qinghe County once a hundred years. I didn't expect that this happened in broad daylight this time. I will definitely investigate it."

Hearing the county magistrate's words, Mr. Zhou looked up with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Bandit?"

The county magistrate nodded.

"I heard from the people outside that Zhou Huaihai was robbed by bandits. Don't worry, I will definitely..."

Before the county magistrate's words could be said, Mr. Zhou quickly waved his hand in a panic.

"No, no, it's not a bandit, no."

There was an inexplicable anxiety in his turbid eyes and his mouth was a little dry.

"no?"

Mr. Zhou faced the county magistrate's gaze with a deep embarrassment, took a deep breath, and sighed slowly.

As he sighed, his shoulders collapsed, as if he had made some choice in the end.

"The one who beat Huaihai was Zhou Qing, my second son's daughter... My second son is the head of the case this time, Zhou Huaishan."

The county magistrate was stunned.

Zhou Huaishan’s daughter?

Mr. Zhou lowered his head and stared at the tea in the cup.

The county magistrate stared at Mr. Zhou and thought about the old man's purpose.

After a long period of silence, Mr. Zhou said again: "I... can I ask you for something?"

"You said."

"You arrested my second son and granddaughter and kept them for a year or two. Don't take their lives."

County Magistrate...

The corners of his eyes twitched, and the county magistrate said to Mr. Zhou: "Have you captured Zhou Huaishan and his daughter?"

Mr. Zhou nodded, "Just catch me, don't behead me."

The county magistrate hurriedly said: "Did you misunderstand something? How could I arrest Zhou Huaishan?"

Mr. Zhou suddenly looked up at the county magistrate.

"I just said that the one who beat Huaihai this time was Huaishan's daughter."

"Do you have evidence?"

Mr. Zhou seemed not to understand what he meant, and looked at the county magistrate with a hint of surprise.

"evidence?"

The county magistrate said: "The motive and method of committing crimes is paid attention to, and also to human and physical evidence."

Mr. Zhou reacted now and smiled bitterly.

"I asked the injured guards, and what they said would not be wrong."

The county magistrate smiled and shook his head, "Those guards are from your family. They cannot be used as personal witnesses, or they are not sufficient as personal witnesses."

Mr. Zhou stared at the county magistrate with wide eyes, looking incredible, "But it was Zhou Qing who beat Huaihai!"

The county magistrate said: "As far as I know, the place where Zhou Huaihai was involved in the accident was Maoer Hutong. At that time, there were nine strong guards around him. Even if Zhou Qing beat Zhou Huaihai, why did Zhou Huaihai bring so many people there?"

Mr. Zhou's face suddenly turned red.

Why!

Of course it is to get the paper back.

But who would have thought...

Looking at Mr. Zhou's expression, the county magistrate had some guesses in his mind.

"You said that Zhou Qing beat Zhou Huaihai, so you always have to give me a reason for Zhou Qing to appear on the scene.

After all, except for your guard, no one can prove that Zhou Qing has appeared there.

This has been investigated by me."

Mr. Zhou opened his mouth and held it in for a long time before saying, "No one saw it?"

The county magistrate nodded, "No."

After pausing, the county magistrate said again: "If you must be Zhou Qing's move, if there is no evidence, if you find physical evidence, I can also take someone."

This is said as if he is standing on Mr. Zhou’s side.

Mr. Zhou's expression indeed slowed down slightly.

"Physical evidence?" He looked at the county magistrate and thought hard for a moment, "At that time, Zhou Qing took away a silver note of 1,000 taels on Huaihai."

The county magistrate said: "But no one else saw this silver note. Unless we searched for this silver note at Zhou Qing, it cannot be regarded as evidence."

"Then go and search!" Mr. Zhou said.

The county magistrate glanced at him deeply.

This gaze made Mr. Zhou's spine a little thorny.

"She is the murderer after all."

The county magistrate snorted coldly in his heart.

"It's not difficult to send someone to search Zhou Qing, but you have to think clearly that good things don't go out and bad things spread thousands of miles. If this matter is spread to Kyoto, I'm afraid it's not good to Zhou Yuan."

Mr. Zhou was stunned and looked at the county magistrate in shock.

The county magistrate said, "I heard that Zhou Huaihai gave Zhou Qing three hundred taels of silver at the tea shop at the city gate today. For a letter of commitment, I am afraid this is not good for Zhou Yuan."

Hearing the three words of promise, Mr. Zhou's heart thrilled.

Unexpectedly, the county magistrate also knew about this letter of commitment.

Mr. Zhou sighed heavily, his face full of fatigue and pain.

The county magistrate looked at Mr. Zhou's expression and said, "No matter whether the silver notes can be found from Zhou Qing, the promise letter will be a hot topic because of the search. You should consider it clearly."
