I make a living solving crimes.

Chapter 52: Apologies are useful, why do we need the police?

He Yushui had slowly calmed down at this moment. She looked at Chang Wei who was standing in front of her with gratitude and said to He Yuzhu, "Brother, I just want justice."

The thin little girl raised her head stubbornly in the morning sunshine and said she wanted justice.

Chang Wei decided to give her justice today.

"Yi Zhonghai, let me ask you now, did you take the letter and money from the He family?"

Everyone in the courtyard was stunned when they heard Chang Wei calling him by his name.

Yi Zhonghai suppressed his anger and didn't argue with Chang Wei. He said to Yang Min in the room, "Sister-in-law Chang, is this how Chang Wei talks to me?"

Yang Min came out of the room, looked around for a moment and said, "I am a woman and I don't understand these things. Chang Wei is young and he may not be thorough in his work. Please bear with him. If you think it is inappropriate, why not call Director Chen from the Street Office and Director Zhang from the Police Station to listen to their opinions?"

Chang Wei secretly gave his mother a thumbs up.

Only then did the people in the courtyard realize that although the Chang family's daughter-in-law usually didn't say anything, she was also a tough character.

The neighbors who originally wanted to step forward and give some advice stepped back, deciding to just watch the fun and not say a word.

Yi Zhonghai always believed that he did not take any money and maintained a tough attitude. But when Yang Min responded with a neither soft nor hard retort, he suddenly felt anxious.

Chang Wei didn't bother to argue with him. He took out the handcuffs from his waist and said loudly: "Yi Zhonghai, you pretended to receive someone else's letter and stole private property from the post office. Now I summon you to the police station for questioning according to the law."

Everyone in the yard fell silent. Is this kid serious?

Yi Zhonghai was horrified. At this moment he realized that the person standing in front of him was not the little brat who used to talk big with a pistol, but a real public security policeman.

Chang Wei stood tall and straight in his police uniform, looking righteous, and spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice with solid reasons.

If he says he wants to give He Yushui justice, he will give him justice.

The others stepped back in fear, only an old lady staggered over, wiping her tears and standing in front of Yi Zhonghai. Ai Ai said, "Chang, Chang Wei, please give me some face and don't arrest him, okay?"

Chang Wei was not afraid of the old woman causing trouble, but he was also most afraid of the old woman playing the victim. He frowned and turned to look at He Yushui.

He Yushui was also very upset at this moment. She had been like an orphan for the past seven years, dreaming day and night that her father would come back to see her, but Yi Zhonghai kept it a secret and no one even told her her father's address.

She wanted to take revenge on Yi Zhonghai and arrest him, but when she saw the look on Auntie's face, she felt sad. She remembered that when she was a child, she didn't know how to make a fire and cook, and it was Auntie who taught her step by step.

She hated Yi Zhonghai, but she had to accept the favor from her aunt.

He Yuzhu sighed heavily and said to Chang Wei: "We won't pursue this matter. Chang Wei, please let me go."

Chang Wei waved his hand and sarcastically said, "Brother Zhuzi, don't be so ungrateful. You took all the money. Your sister has been wronged, and now you are talking to outsiders. This brother did a good job."

He Yuzhu said awkwardly, "That's not what I meant. I'm just speaking a fair word for the old man."

Chang Wei teased, "Fair words? Then where is your sister's fairness?"

He Yushui looked up and said nothing. She was extremely disappointed with He Yuzhu.

Yi Zhonghai knew that today's matter would not end well. He knew a little about the law and knew that such things would not be investigated by the officials unless the people reported them. This was why he had been so tough.

He originally thought that he could easily control the two siblings, but he didn't expect that the weak He Yushui would be so tough now.

He couldn't follow them to the police station, so his expression changed for a while before he softened and said, "Chang Wei, let's just solve it in the yard."

Chang Wei glanced at his mother inconspicuously and saw her nod slightly. After thinking for a moment, he understood.

It was a relief to arrest Yi Zhonghai based on this incident, but I'm afraid that people in the courtyard will not dare to have any contact with the Chang family anymore.

Although Chang Wei didn't care about these neighbors, what about his mother? What about He Yushui? What about the third and fourth children? Don't they even have a playmate after school?

"Solve it. How do you want to solve it?"

Yi Zhonghai said dejectedly: "I will pay the money. I will pay back all the money I falsely claimed to Zhuzi. The money I gave him before will be considered as my compensation to him."

Chang Wei smiled playfully and said, "So, you didn't mention He Yushui at all!"

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll compensate He Yushui."

He Yushui said angrily: "I, I don't want money, I just want him to apologize to me."

Chang Wei glared at her and said, "If an apology is useful, why do we need the police?"

He Yushui didn't dare to argue with Chang Wei at this time. She pouted and turned her head away from him.

Chang Wei never cared about making amends or apologizing. Few of the apologies he made to the public in newspapers, online or in videos were sincere. What he wanted was for the other party to feel the pain personally.

"If you can do these three things well, we'll leave it at that. If you can't, we'll see you at the police station."

"You said."

"First thing, you return all the letters to the rain."

"Row."

"The second thing is that you pay the money to He Yushui before dark tonight."

"it is good."

Yi Zhonghai had no right to bargain and could only agree.

Yi Zhonghai is a level 6 fitter with a monthly salary of more than 60 yuan. After deducting the living expenses for himself and his wife and his aunt's medicine, he can save 30 to 40 yuan a month.

As soon as Chang Wei opened his mouth, he asked for his two years' savings.

Chang Wei took out another piece of paper from his pocket, handed it to Yi Zhonghai and said, "Third, I have a blueprint of a stick here. Please print it out for me before you leave work today."

This is the blueprint of a telescopic stick. Chang Wei drew it last night when he was free and was worried that he couldn't find anyone to make it.

Yi Zhonghai took the drawing in surprise, and understood it at a glance. It was not complicated and the materials did not need much. It was just a bit labor-intensive, after all, every section had to fit perfectly.

"What does this have to do with the He family's affairs?"

"It's okay, I asked for it myself."

"Why do you..."

"No reason. You should give He Yushui back the money. How can I not teach you a lesson if you made a mistake?"

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he took a deep breath to calm himself down and said, "Okay, I'll bring it back to you after get off work."

Building such a thing is time-consuming and laborious, and he also has to find a way to find the workshop director to buy materials.

"Well, if I come home from get off work tonight and there's no letter, money, or stick, you won't have to go to work tomorrow morning."

When the aunt saw that Chang Wei was willing to give in, she no longer cared about the seven or eight hundred yuan. She was too embarrassed to stay any longer and ran away wiping her tears.

When the neighbors who were watching the fun saw that the matter was resolved, they also spoke softly and tried to smooth things over.

As for how much sincerity is contained in these bland words, who can tell?

Xu Damao was a man who had long been resentful of Yi Zhonghai for always taking sides in the yard. When he saw him being humiliated, he wished he could rush up and slap him in the face to make himself feel better.

For example, Jia Zhang has always been dissatisfied with the ten yuan per month. She may try to persuade them verbally, but secretly curse them in her heart that they deserve it. She thinks it would be better to give the two yuan to her own son so that he will definitely not raise an ungrateful person like the He family.

But if you look closely, you can see that the second uncle hiding behind the crowd is somewhat gloating, wishing that Chang Wei would arrest Yi Zhonghai so that he can be successfully promoted to the first uncle.

The third uncle was not very interested in the power in the hospital. He just admired Yi Zhonghai's methods. Seven years and seven or eight hundred yuan. How did he keep it secret?

He Yuzhu felt uneasy about taking double the money from the old man, and said to He Yushui: "Sister, you can't take this money."

Chang Wei sneered, "If you think it's inappropriate, just return the money to Yi Zhonghai yourself. What's the point of taking your anger out on your own sister?"

He Yuzhu stammered and was unable to speak.

He lives paycheck to paycheck and has no savings. His monthly salary is spent on hanging out with other people on the flyover. He has to go out to earn some extra money from time to time to make ends meet.
