Chapter 177 The case is solved...

Qin Huairu quickly grabbed the stick, with a flash of anger in her eyes. This stick was no pushover, he broke free from Sha Zhu's hand and kicked Sha Zhu's calf hard.

"Ouch! It hurts so much, you little bastard, you kicked me so hard!" Sha Zhu cried out in pain, grimacing. He covered the painful area with his hands, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

Sha Zhu looked up and found Qin Huairu staring at him with an unhappy face. He smiled awkwardly and quickly explained to her: "Hey, Sister Qin, Bang Geng and I were just joking, don't mind it!" Qin Huairu didn't respond after hearing this, but her eyes revealed dissatisfaction.

The audience on the side discussed it. Some lamented the naughtiness of this guy, while others laughed at him and said that he deserved it, such as Xu Damao.

Seeing that the "protagonist" had been brought over, Liu Zhiye said, "Let's continue the trial!" So he said, "Banggeng, when Uncle Liu asks you questions, you must answer truthfully and cannot lie. Do you understand?"

Banggeng was so scared that he hid behind Qin Huairu and kept silent. Qin Huairu felt sorry for her son and begged Liu Zhiye, "Oh! Director Liu, please don't scare the child. Let's take it home and smell it carefully. If it is really Banggeng who did it, we will go to compensate Uncle Yi and apologize to everyone. Do you think it's okay?"

Qin Huairu was a good actress, and she even knew how to win everyone's sympathy. She opened her big watery eyes and looked at everyone pitifully.

"Everyone, let's talk, okay?"

The people in the compound looked at each other, not knowing how to start. This was a serious crime, he was committing malicious damage and theft; although the stick was small, he could not be let off so easily.

So no one responded to Qin Huairu.

After seeing this, Jia Dongxu was furious, but this was not the time to get angry. He turned his gaze to Yi Zhonghai, thinking about how to resolve this matter.

"Master, please say something. For my sake, can you..."

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai said awkwardly, "Well, well, then..." Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to agree to Jia Dongxu's request, Yi Yuanchao on the side interrupted anxiously, "Dad, this must have been done by Bang Geng. He broke the glass in our house and stole the fish."

Jia Dongxu looked at Yi Yuanchao with resentment: "What are you talking about here, you bastard, you don't know where you came from?"

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's face turned pale and he questioned Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu, how can you talk like that? As a grown man, is it appropriate for you to use foul language to treat a child?"

"Yuan Chao, he is also your junior brother. How can you, as a senior brother, treat your junior brother like this?"

Jia Dongxu also regretted his words and actions, and said hesitantly: "Master, I, I..."

Yi Yuanchao was enraged by these words. He hated it most when people said he was a stinking beggar and a bastard that no one wanted.

He was like an angry little bull, rushing towards Jia Dongxu with his head down.

"Ah... bastard... I'm going to fight you..."

Liu Zhiye quickly stepped forward to stop Yi Yuanchao, not to protect Jia Dongxu, but because he was worried that Yi Yuanchao would suffer. After all, Yi Yuanchao was just a child, and if he rushed over rashly, he might end up in trouble.

"Brother Liu, let me go. I want to fight that bastard. I want to kill him! I want to kill him..." Yi Yuanchao continued to struggle under Liu Zhiye's obstruction, and was obviously very irritated.

An old lady came over and hugged Yi Yuanchao, saying distressedly: "Child, don't cry. Who said no one loves you? We are your parents. He is just farting..."

Then, she suddenly raised her head and said to Jia Dongxu, "Jia Dongxu, we have been very kind to your family! Not only are you ungrateful, but you are also hurting us even more. What on earth are you thinking?"

"I'm telling you, Yi Yuanchao is the child of me and Old Yi. From now on, if I hear these gossips again, I will fight him..."

Qin Huairu saw that the situation was not good. Jia Dongxu was just like her mother-in-law, who was not careful with his words and could offend people with just one sentence. This was good. Uncle Yi's family was completely irritated. It seemed that she had to find a way to resolve the conflict quickly.

Before Qin Huairu could react, Liu Zhiye had already made his move.

Liu Zhiye stepped forward decisively, grabbed Jia Dongxu by the collar, and lifted him in front of Yi Yuanchao like a chicken.

Liu Zhiye's strength was so great that it was simply astonishing. Jia Dongxu was lifted up and seemed to have no power to resist.

With a cold face, he ordered seriously: "Jia Dongxu, please apologize to Yi Yuanchao." It was so simple and crude, without any unnecessary nonsense, just straightforward.

Jia Dongxu was frightened by Liu Zhiye's sudden move. Although he was somewhat unhappy, he did not dare to resist. He could only bite the bullet and sincerely apologize to Yi Yuanchao.

"Brother Yuan, Yuan Chao, it's all my fault. My words offended you, and I apologize to you..." Now he said that it was my senior brother who had the upper hand.

Yi Yuanchao ignored him, turned around and cried while hugging the aunt, saying affectionately: "Mom, thank you, I also have a father and mother who love me, it's great. Woo woo..." The aunt stroked Yi Yuanchao's head and comforted him gently. Looking at her, Yi Yuanchao couldn't stop his tears from flowing, and his gratitude was beyond words.

He finally felt the warmth and love of his family, which he had always longed for. He hugged his aunt tightly, as if he wanted to keep this happiness forever.

Qin Huairu came over awkwardly and advised, "Aunt Yi, please don't bother with Dongxu. He is a man with a bad mouth, but he has a good heart. Please calm down and don't bother with him."

But the eldest lady ignored her and turned her head away. She was really angry with the Jia family.

Let’s not mention the previous Jia Zhang family. The relationship between the two families was once not harmonious, but later they reconciled. Although my aunt felt a little upset, she just kept it to herself for the sake of face.

However, now that she finally has a child, she is being slandered and abused by Jia Dongxu. How can she easily forgive them?

Seeing the farce subsided, Liu Zhiye once again turned his attention to Banggeng. He decided to use this to teach him a lesson, so he asked, "Banggeng, let me ask you, did you break the glass of your grandfather Yi's house and steal a few salted fish?"

Bang Geng's body trembled slightly when he heard this. He quietly lowered his head and glanced at Liu Zhiye. Seeing that his face was serious and his eyes were staring at him fiercely, Bang Geng was immediately frightened and trembled.

"I...didn't..." Banggeng stammered, his voice as thin as a mosquito's.

In Liu Zhiye's heart, a slight smile rose: Who else could it be if not you? Want to be tough? That depends on whether you have the ability to do so.

"Okay, you don't want to tell the truth, right? Don't think I can't cure you just because you don't tell me!"

"Hehehe! Let me tell you how our police track down dirty things. You may not know that everything has a smell. Some people may not be able to smell it, but dogs can. Take salted fish for example. The smell is so strong that anyone who touches it will definitely have the smell on their body."

"I'll go to the police station and get a big wolfhound. It will be able to smell the scent of anyone who steals something. Then, it will pounce on that person."

"This big wolfdog has a really big mouth. If I get bitten by it, Tsk tsk..." Bang Geng was so scared when he heard that that the image of a ferocious wolfdog with a bloody mouth rushing towards him appeared in his mind.

"Don't bite me... I stole it." Bang Geng cried and ran back.

"Woooooooo..."

"Uncle Liu, don't let the dog go. I was the one who broke the glass in Grandpa Yi's house..." Banggeng shouted while running.

The people in the compound were suddenly in an uproar.

"Wow! It was really that little bastard Banggen who did this?"

"He's only 9 years old, and he dares to do bad things?"

"Humph! Isn't it obvious? His father was not a clean man when he was young, but he became a decent person after the founding of the People's Republic of China."

Sha Zhu angrily scolded Xu Damao: "Xu Damao, you must have seen clearly who smashed the glass of Uncle Yi's house. Damn it, I will never let you go!"

Xu Damao stopped talking nonsense. Hearing this, he curled his lips and hid behind Xu Fugui.

Liu Zhiye shouted, "Banggeng hid the fish there. Return it to your Grandpa Yi immediately, or I will take you to the police station to keep your grandma company."

"Hahaha, go keep his grandmother company... After hearing what Liu Zhiye said, Xu Damao laughed so hard that tears almost came out." The others were all overjoyed and laughed happily.

"Hey hey hey!"

"Hahaha..." The scene was very joyful.

Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu were so embarrassed that they wished they could dig out a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment from the ground with their toes.

After Banggeng finally brought the salted fish, Liu Zhiye dragged him in front of Yi Zhonghai and said to him: "Banggeng, bow and apologize to your Grandpa Yi..." Liu Zhiye's tone was serious and decisive, and there was no room for doubt.

Bang Geng had no choice but to humbly say, "Grandpa Yi, I was wrong. I shouldn't have broken your glass, let alone stolen your fish... I really won't dare to do it again next time."
