In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband
Chapter 103 Parade in the Streets
The detectives were shocked when they saw the wheelchair placed in the middle of the alley and began to explore it curiously.
"What is that? Why have I never seen it before?"
"It seems to be... the monster we saw before?"
"I do not know."
"Yes, yes, yes! It's the monster we saw during the previous search."
"What are you waiting for? Brothers, hurry up and catch him!"
"Quickly subdue him, and then we'll go ask for a reward from the higher-ups."
"Yes! He paid the money after taking it."
……
In this way, a group of constables rushed in and successfully subdued the wheelchair, and carried it back to the yamen to ask for a reward from the county magistrate.
Upon seeing this, Su Zhizhi tactfully said goodbye to the constable, claiming that she did not help the bailiffs catch the monster, so she did not dare to take credit for it rashly.
Upon seeing this, the chief constable quickly agreed to Su Zhizhi's departure. After all, without Su Zhizhi, there would be one less person to take credit for the work, and they might even be able to get more money. He wished that good things like this would happen every day.
After saying goodbye to the detectives, Su Zhizhi hurried back home.
Shen Wenjun was very surprised to see Su Zhizhi's sudden return. "Why are you back? Didn't you say you had something urgent to do? Did you find the whereabouts of Master Xie?"
Su Zhizhi nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that he has escaped from prison, so let's evacuate this place quickly. We will find a way to meet up with him when we reach a safe place."
Su Zhizhi answered truthfully.
After hearing this, Shen Wenjun nodded and agreed without hesitation, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
After saying that, he went back to his room to pack his luggage.
After a while, the two of them packed their luggage.
Just as the two were leaving the house, something unexpected happened.
A middle-aged woman stopped Su Zhizhi outside the door. Before Su Zhizhi could react, she grabbed her clothes tightly and yelled, "You are the murderer's wife, right? Return my son to me."
"Wow, wow, my poor son was killed by your damn husband, and he even ran away, wow."
"Oh God, do you still have eyes? Why don't you send down a thunderbolt to kill the murderer who killed my son?"
……
There were several other people who came with the woman, both old and young, and they immediately surrounded Su Zhizhi and Shen Wenjun.
What else could Su Zhizhi not understand? These were the deceased's family members who had somehow heard about Su Zhizhi and rushed over to surround them.
Seeing the extremely agitated woman, Su Zhizhi quickly comforted her, "Auntie, please calm down and get up first. There might be some misunderstanding. You're too excited and it can be bad for your health."
Su Zhizhi persuaded the woman.
Unexpectedly, the woman did not buy Su Zhizhi's trick. Instead, she saw that Su Zhizhi became even more agitated.
"I don't care. Your husband is a murderer. As his wife, you can't escape responsibility. I want you to pay for my son's life."
After the woman finished speaking, other family members of the deceased echoed her.
"Yes, we should just tie her up and parade her through the streets. I don't believe her husband can hide in the dark and not show up."
"That's a good idea. If her husband doesn't want her anymore, we can just kill her in the street to avenge my son!"
"Come here, quickly catch her and tie her up for me."
……
A group of people were preparing to tie up Su Zhizhi as aggressively as firecrackers that were lit by fire.
Shen Wenjun on the side wanted to step forward to stop them, but unfortunately, because his body had not recovered yet, he was pushed to the ground by the victim's family before he could open his mouth. Even though Su Zhizhi had some boxing skills, unfortunately, the other party was outnumbered and powerful. After a few rounds, Su Zhizhi was tied up by the other party.
In this way, Shen Wenjun watched Su Zhizhi being taken away by the victim's family.
At this time, Xie Chengjin also received the news that Su Zhizhi was tied up and paraded through the streets.
He had finally bribed the jailer who was holding him and secretly released him in the dead of night. Fearing that he would be recognized, Master Xie Chengjin never dared to look for Su Zhizhi and the others.
To be on the safe side, Xie Chengjin specially asked his men to find him a human skin mask to disguise himself into a completely new look. He was also careful and changed his name to a fake one called Song Shijun.
At this time, Xie Chengjin was in a great dilemma. He wanted to save Su Zhizhi very much, but he was afraid of being caught by the county magistrate and reported to the court, so that all his previous efforts would be in vain.
Just when Xie Chengjin was extremely confused, his men who had gone to investigate the situation came back.
"How is it? Did you see it clearly? Is it Su Zhizhi?" Xie Chengjin asked quickly.
Upon hearing the voice, the subordinate nodded immediately and said, "Sir, I have seen clearly that it is Miss Su."
After hearing that the deceased's family had indeed taken Su Zhizhi away, Xie Chengjin's last bit of hope disappeared.
"Okay, then you guys prepare some things. We'll go together with our faces covered to rescue Su Zhizhi. Remember, we'll escape from here as soon as we rescue Su Zhizhi." Xie Chengjin made a prompt decision and gave orders to his men.
"As you wish, sir."
After Xie Chengjin and his men dressed up in disguise, they went to the street to rescue Su Zhizhi who was being paraded through the streets.
When Xie Chengjin saw Su Zhizhi being pinned down by a group of people in such a miserable state, his heart ached as if it were being stabbed by a knife.
The appearance of Su Zhizhi ignited the anger of all the people in the town. They threw vegetable leaves at Su Zhizhi to express their dissatisfaction.
"Bitch, make the black-hearted murderer pay with his life!"
"Yes, behead this beast and expose his head to the public!"
"She was torn into pieces by five horses, and she will never be reborn."
……
The people used their most vicious language to attack Su Zhizhi.
Su Zhizhi was slightly stunned when she heard this, and her heart was filled with sorrow. She and Xie Chengjin had clearly done nothing, yet they were inexplicably accused of murder. Who could she turn to for justice? Who could help her prove her innocence?
Just when Su Zhizhi felt extremely desperate, Shen Wenjun appeared. Xie Chengjin, who was about to take action, quickly ordered his men to stop and wait quietly for the opportunity.
Shen Wenjun appeared out of nowhere, rushed out from the crowd, stood in the middle of the road, and used his body to block the carriage that held Su Zhizhi.
The deceased's family members were furious when they saw Shen Wenjun. They scolded him without hesitation, "Get out of here! We didn't bother you because you were a patient. If you wait for us to deal with the real murderer, we will kill you too."
The family of the deceased warned Shen Wenjun.
