Chapter 490 Conscientiously only looking after oneself
Zhang Hua's mind started to move.
He swallowed nervously and looked around again.
After making sure that no one was around, he climbed onto the bridge and reached for the handbag.
This was a theft after all, and his hands were shaking nervously.
Usually in the village, I occasionally do some sneaky things, but those are just between the villages, they are trivial things.
But this is money, it is a great unity.
"I only take one..."
"Forget it, just steal two."
"It's already been stolen. He has so much money in it, please take one more..."
After Zhang Hua drew a big unity card, he drew another one, and then he drew another one.
In the end, he completely lost his mind. With all the money in front of him, how could he not put more into his pocket?
He frantically grabbed a handful of money and put it in his pocket.
With trembling hands, I failed to put it in several times.
Damn you, you idiot, you should take all this handbag away.
Zhang Hua was heartbroken, grabbed his handbag, turned around, and prepared to get out of the car.
Unexpectedly, just as he turned around and jumped out of the car, a tall and burly man jumped out of nowhere. He kicked him to the ground, and then Shi Potian roared: "Fight the robbers, catch the thieves..."
Zhang Hua was confused.
Seeing the fists raining down, Zhang Hua held his head and begged for mercy. The banknotes stuffed in his pockets were scattered on the ground.
The shouting alarmed many people.
Those villages are not far from each other by the road. If you shout like this, everyone in the village can hear it.
In rural areas, it is like this. The place is empty and the shouts can travel very far.
Countless people can remember from their childhood the scene where their parents stood on the hillside and called them home for dinner.
People in the village gathered around in twos and threes to watch the fun.
Look at it, damn, all this money is scattered all over the floor.
Look at the man lying on the ground being beaten. He still has money in his pocket.
In front of everyone, Xiong Yawei pulled out a bundle of hemp rope from the carriage and tied up Zhang Hua quickly.
Zhang Hua repeatedly begged for mercy: "Let me go, let me go, I will never dare to do it again."
Xiong Yawei would not listen to his begging for mercy, so he directly took a ball of cotton gauze stained with the smell of engine oil and stuffed it into Zhang Hua's mouth to prevent him from shouting.
Seeing a group of little kids trying to pick up the money scattered on the ground, Xiong Yawei shouted: "Don't move around, you are not allowed to pick up this money, otherwise, we will treat you all as a gang of thieves and send you all to the Public Security Bureau and feed you peanuts."
"
These words frightened all the villagers.
Everyone quickly grabbed their children and prevented them from picking up the money.
This is really regarded as a theft gang and sent to the police station to eat peanuts. No one is afraid.
"Which one of you is the village chief? Is he in charge here?" Xiong Yawei asked everyone loudly: "I just want to help me bear witness. This man came to steal money from me. The amount is quite large. Please help me go to the Public Security Bureau to bear witness."
A proof.”
No one spoke.
It's okay to watch the excitement, but forget it if you have to go to the police station to testify.
Xiong Yawei said: "Of course, I can't ask everyone to help me go all the way for nothing. If you help me bear witness, each person can be compensated for five yuan in lost time. In addition, you can also go to a restaurant to have a meal."
With this statement, the enthusiasm of the villagers immediately increased.
You can eat, drink, and get money, but anyone who doesn't go is a fool.
Anyway, they were not familiar with Zhang Hua and had no friendship with him.
Besides, they were just seeking proof from facts. It was indeed this man who stole something from someone else's car, was caught and beaten, and both the man and the man got the stolen goods.
"I'll go and I'll testify for you."
"I'll go too, I can also testify."
"I can also testify."
The surrounding villagers all clamored to testify, and even the three-year-old kid shouted in a vague tone to testify.
How could Xiong Yawei really want so many people to go?
He said: "It won't work if there are too many people. Just send a representative from each family."
He picked a dozen people and asked them to help carry the bundled Zhang Hua into the carriage at the back.
Zhang Hua was thrown into the carriage like a dead pig as everyone shouted: "One, two, three, get up."
Those people, smiling and laughing, climbed into the carriage and waved to their families.
At that scene, I thought it was about being paraded through the streets to receive praise.
A few smart boys who were half-grown didn't care, went around to the other side, and climbed into the car secretly.
Xiong Yawei looked at it without thinking too much.
"Everyone squat down and sit down. I will drive and take you to the city." Xiong Yawei reminded him, and he and Xiao Luo got on the driver's seat together.
Driving the car, Xiong Yawei took everyone and went straight to the police station.
This case is not complicated, the facts are clear, the witnesses and evidence are complete, and the comrades handling the case are also happy.
Zhang Hua felt so regretful that he just wanted to hit the wall.
Why was he caught like this?
I should never, never should, be greedy and steal money.
"If you confess, you will be lenient, if you resist, you will be stern. If you tell the truth, you can still seek leniency. If you quibble, you will not suffer the consequences."
"Besides, there are so many witnesses and evidence. Now you still have stolen money in your pocket. This is a fact that cannot be changed by sophistry."
"So, you'd better confess yourself and be treated leniently."
After some publicity, Zhang Hua poured beans into his mouth and explained the process of how he came up with the idea and how to steal money.
This is a done deal and cannot be changed.
Xiong Yawei thanked his colleagues who were handling the case and brought out the group of witnesses.
Of course he would not break his promise, so he took these witnesses to a restaurant and spent twenty or thirty yuan to give everyone a nice meal.
According to the agreement, each of the witnesses who came to testify was paid five yuan for lost work time.
This trip cost hundreds of dollars.
Compared to solving such a trouble for Zhang Hua, this little thing is really just a small change.
These witnesses were very happy. As expected, they had food, drink, and money on this trip. It was really not a loss.
"Thank you all for your generous help today." Xiong Yawei thanked everyone: "I hope that in the future, when you see such injustice, you will come forward more often. This time, thank you all. I have to leave, and I will see you again when I have the opportunity."
After Xiong Yawei said goodbye to everyone, he really drove away. He was just an ordinary driver passing by from other places.
He did not go to Xu Erlong to avoid causing unnecessary problems.
Of course, Xu Erlong is paying attention to the progress of this matter.
Seeing Zhang Hua being sent to the police station, Xu Erlong breathed a sigh of relief.
This time, Zhang Hua must be sentenced to several years in prison.
It's a pity that we haven't started to crack down hard yet, otherwise, I'm afraid Zhang Hua's crime would be even more serious.
However, even if Zhang Hua is only sentenced to a few years, it will be enough. Such a scoundrel will not cause any more trouble to himself and Wen Ye.
