Chapter 65 The best mother and son both get into trouble
The public security officers ignored Zhu Hongping's excuses and asked directly: "What is your relationship with Li Zhijie?"
Zhu Hongping also panicked and waved his hands repeatedly, "I have nothing to do with him!"
The village chief spat softly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't Li Zhijie your son?"
Zhu Hongping was stunned and nodded quickly, "Ah, yes, he is my son, but I don't know what he has done. He is not at home and has gone out of town. There is no point in looking for me."
The policeman refused to smile, "We know he is not at home, we are here to find you."
Upon hearing that the police were looking for her, Zhu Hongping suddenly became extremely nervous.
Could it be that if we can't catch her son, we have to arrest her to pay off the son's debt?
"You guys, what are you doing to me? I don't know anything and it has nothing to do with me!"
The policeman glanced at the house behind her and asked, "Is this your home? Is your husband at home?"
"He is in the ground."
"Okay, just call him back. We have something to tell you."
Li Dajun was thinking the same thing as Zhu Hongping, thinking that the police had found out about his son's evil deeds, and he felt as if he was hiding a rabbit.
As soon as I saw the two policemen in police uniforms, I was so frightened that I immediately knelt down towards them.
"Comrade Public Security, I have no way to teach my son, please give Zhijie a chance to change his ways..."
Two police officers quickly helped him up and explained the purpose of his visit today.
"This is the arrest warrant issued by our Public Security Bureau for Li Zhijie. Look, Li Zhijie is currently being detained at the Chengdong Detention Center. Your family members can go and see him and give him some clothes or something..."
Li Dajun and Zhu Hongping were stunned when they saw the arrest warrant with a bright red seal.
They could understand what the public security officers said, but they couldn't understand. How could the son be arrested by the public security bureau when he went to work in a leather factory in Suzhou to earn a lot of money?
The two police officers came here to deliver the arrest warrant and were ready to leave now that the matter was settled.
Zhu Hongping quickly stopped the police, "Are you mistaken? My son went to work in a leather factory in Suzhou City a few days ago. How could he be in the detention center?"
Considering that she and Li Dajun might be illiterate, the public security officers patiently explained Li Zhijie's crime and read through the arrest warrant.
"...This is probably the situation. There are witnesses and physical evidence. Li Zhijie's crime of wounding and robbery has been established as fact. If you have the conditions, you can help him hire a better lawyer."
Seeing that the words were clear, the two police officers put down their arrest warrants and prepared to leave again, but Zhu Hongping refused to let them go.
"No, you can't leave yet. My Zhijie must have been wronged. He is so cowardly that he doesn't even dare to kill a chicken. How could he hurt others and rob someone? You must have made a mistake!"
No matter how the police explained it, Zhu Hongping refused to let him go. He even put a kitchen knife on his neck and threatened his life to force the police to let Li Zhijie go home.
Initially, the village didn't pay much attention to the fact that the police came to Li's house, but Zhu Hongping made such a fuss that the whole village was alerted. They all threw away their hoes and came to Li's house to watch the fun.
Seeing that the door of his house was surrounded by people on three levels inside and outside, Zhu Hongping not only did not find it embarrassing, but actually made the fuss even more exciting.
"Come and see, the police bullied honest people. My son went out to work well, but was wrongly accused of being a robber. If I don't give an explanation today, I won't live..."
The two police officers were very troubled by Zhu Hongping's intrusive behavior. They were worried about their image and influence, so they had no choice but to be patient and persuade them.
"Zhu Hongping, put the knife down first. If you have anything to say, you can talk to me."
"You have to believe in the law and the judiciary. We all handle cases based on evidence. We will never unjustly accuse a good person, and we will never let a bad person go."
The village chief also advised, "Zhu Hongping, please stop making trouble. Everyone is watching and you are not afraid of being laughed at."
Zhu Hongping cried and made a fuss, "What am I afraid of? I am just a lifeblood like Zhijie. You are trying to force me to death. God, please open your eyes and see!"
Although Zhu Hongping cried miserably, the surrounding villagers did not sympathize with her at all.
It’s not like everyone doesn’t know Li Zhijie’s virtues. Nine out of ten families in the village have been harmed by Li Zhijie.
The chickens raised at home, the dried bacon and sausages, and the fruits and vegetables in the fields, whatever Li Zhijie takes a fancy to, will be stolen within a few days.
It's not like the villagers didn't come to argue with him, but Zhu Hongping not only refused to admit it, but also scolded the victim bloody.
Now that Li Zhijie has finally been brought to justice, everyone in the village feels very happy and can't wait to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
Seeing that Zhu Hongping refused to listen, the two police officers also lost their patience and shouted: "Zhu Hongping, as a law enforcer, I am now ordering you to put down the knife. If you continue to make trouble like this, we can only take coercive measures against you."
.”
Zhu Hongping didn't take the police's warning to heart at all.
In her opinion, she had not broken any laws, and in front of so many people, the police did not dare to do anything to her. The most they could do was scare her.
"Come on, take me and shoot me. My son has gone in, and I don't want to live anymore..."
Seeing Zhu Hongping like this, the two police officers stopped talking nonsense and directly showed the handcuffs.
Seeing the handcuffs, Zhu Hongping also panicked. In fact, as long as she put down the knife at this time and admitted her mistake, the public security officers would not pursue her excessively.
But she didn't know whether she was dazed or frightened, so she pointed the kitchen knife at the policeman who showed off the handcuffs.
"You guys, if you dare to catch me, I will fight with you!"
This is really serious. Attacking a police officer is a serious crime and requires a prison sentence!
The two police officers cooperated with each other and took the knife from Zhu Hongping's hand and handcuffed her away.
Seeing Zhu Hongping being taken away, the villagers were all very happy, and some even spat at Zhu Hongping's back.
"You deserve it, the wicked will get their own reward!"
"It's better now. From now on, the chickens at home will no longer be afraid of being stolen."
"That damn Li Zhijie steals my bacon every year. It's okay this time. He's finally been caught. It's best to lock him up for the rest of his life and never let him out, so as not to harm others."

Ling family.
Li Li was having dinner with her rice bowl when she heard someone banging on the courtyard door. She immediately asked her daughter Ling Chunhua to open the door angrily.
Ling Chunhua ran to open the door with a "da da da" sound. When she saw that the person coming was Li Dajun, she immediately called her grandpa happily.
Li Dajun ignored his granddaughter and hurriedly entered the door.
"Li, Li, something big happened!"
Hearing Li Dajun calling her, Li Li quickly put down her bowls and chopsticks and went out to greet him.
"Dad, why are you here? Have you eaten?"
Li Dajun was so anxious that he was out of breath, "Li, your brother and your mother were arrested by the police! Hurry up, think of a way."
Li Li was startled and quickly asked what was going on.
Li Dajun then told the story of how the police came to his home in the morning to issue an arrest warrant.
