The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 1364

Wang Xin made a big fuss at home, even alarming the neighbors. In the end, Wang Yongge had no choice but to tie him up on the bed.

But Wang Xin refused to eat or drink, and was determined to die. Wang Yongge was so anxious that he had no choice but to go find Captain Hu again.

Captain Hu couldn't let Wang Xin resume his work just because he was trying to commit suicide. He could only persuade Wang Yongge and then send him home.

When Wang Yongge returned home, he saw Wang Xin tied up and banging his head against the wall, and was scared to death.

"Wang Xin, what are you doing?" Wang Yongge hurriedly pulled the child back and persuaded him: "It's just a job!"

Wang Xin closed his eyes, looking heartbroken.

"Dad, don't stop me. Rather than living with the crime, I would rather die to make it clear to everyone that I was wronged." Wang Xin said in despair.

Wang Yongge said: "I have consulted Captain Hu and the most you can do is be expelled from the police force, but you won't have to go to jail."

Wang Xin cried, "I didn't hit anyone. I was wrongly accused. Rather than being fired unjustly, I would rather die to prove my innocence."

Wang Yongge urged: "How about I talk to the person who wronged you and spend some money to settle the matter?"

"No, I'm a policeman. How can I compromise with a criminal?" Wang Xin said righteously, "Master can prove my innocence, but he won't help."

"Then what do you want to do?" Wang Yongge said angrily.

"Dad, don't bother me." Wang Xin closed his eyes in despair.

Wang Yongge felt sorry for his son and said, "Can't I go find Ma Kui? I will definitely ask him to help you."

After temporarily persuading his son, Wang Yongge rushed to the Ma family without stopping, but came up empty-handed. He did not see Ma Kui, but Wang Gang instead.

"Xiao Wang, why are you at Ma Kui's house? Where are the others?"

Wang Gang said: "Uncle Ma went to Beijing. Aunt Wang had surgery in Beijing! Uncle Ma just got on the train this morning. I will help him clean up the house."

Wang Yongge said anxiously: "What should we do?"

Wang Gang deliberately said: "Uncle Wang, do you have something urgent to discuss with Uncle Ma?"

Wang Yongge said: "It was because Wang Xin was wrongly accused that he tried to commit suicide at home. I was so worried!"

Wang Gang said: "Uncle Wang, it's no use for you to come to Uncle Ma! He obviously doesn't want to help Wang Xin."

Wang Yongge hesitated and asked, "What do you mean?"

Wang Gang said: "Uncle Ma has always had a prejudice against you. It's obvious that he won't help Wang Xin this time because of you!"

Wang Yongge looked stunned.

"Why should we make things difficult for the next generation with the grievances of our previous generation?" Wang Yongge said anxiously.

"Uncle Ma blamed you for his ten years of wrongful imprisonment and Aunt Wang's illness. It's good enough that he didn't make things difficult for Wang Xin. It's difficult for him to save Wang Xin!"

Wang Yongge fell completely silent and didn't even remember how he got home.

But as soon as he returned home, Wang Xin tried to commit suicide, and finally Wang Yongge was left with no choice.

"Okay, you're being tried for death, so why not let me die too?" Wang Yongge compromised and said, "I'll turn myself in now and let Ma Kui save you."

Wang Xin stopped making a fuss and looked at his father in shock.

The crying, the making a scene, and the threatening to hang oneself were actually a bad idea given by Wang Gang to Wang Xin, in order to force Wang Yongge to tell the truth. In Wang Gang's view, Wang Yongge's only weakness in life was his son Wang Xin, and unless it was a matter of life and death for his son, he would never tell the truth.

Wang Xin didn't quite believe Wang Gang's inference at first, but he didn't expect that after he had made a fuss twice, Wang Yongge couldn't hold back and told the truth.

"Ten years ago, I was a train conductor. The thief escaped to the carriage where I was working and threatened me with a knife to lock the door." Wang Yongge told the story of what happened back then.

"Later, Ma Kui chased after him but was blocked outside the carriage door. The fugitive wanted to jump out of the train and escape. I don't know why, but I took a basin and threw it over. It happened to hit the fugitive's head who was holding on to the window, causing him to lose his grip and fall outside the train."

Wang Xin opened his mouth wide and asked, "What happened next?"

Wang Yongge said with a bitter face: "The fugitive was quite skilled. He grabbed the edge of the window and hung outside the train. Just then, Ma Kui broke in through the door. I was so scared that I ran out from another door in the carriage.

Ma Kui wanted to save him, but the train was too bumpy and the fugitive fell off and died.

Wang Xin asked in shock: "Why don't you tell the truth! Your situation is at most excessive self-defense, after all, the fugitive threatened you with a knife."

Wang Yongge cried, "I thought about telling the police the truth later, but when I heard that the fugitive's accomplice insisted that Ma Kui pushed someone out of the car and was sued for murder, I was scared."

Wang Xin's eyes widened as he said, "Do you know that as long as you testify, the testimony of the fugitive's accomplice will be refuted, and you and Master will be fine."

"I was so upset at the time that I didn't think about these things." Wang Yongge looked at his son and said, "You were still young and had no mother. If I went to jail, you would become an orphan."

When Wang Xin learned the truth, he was so upset that he didn't speak for a long time.

Wang Yongge thought his son despised him, so he said, "Wang Xin, don't worry. As long as I turn myself in, your master Ma Kui will be relieved and will naturally forgive you and prove your innocence. This has nothing to do with you."

"No, you can't turn yourself in." Wang Xin held his father's arm, with reluctance in his eyes.

"Master's case is closed. There's no point in you turning yourself in."

Between his father and the truth, it is only natural for Wang Xin to choose his father.

Wang Yongge held his son's hand and said, "What can you do? If I don't turn myself in, Ma Kui won't help you."

Wang Xin said guiltily: "Dad, I was actually lying to you. I didn't want to commit suicide. Brother Xiaogang gave me the idea, saying that if you insist that you didn't kill anyone, you must be innocent."

"Ah." Wang Yongge was stunned.

At this time, the door of the Wang family was kicked open, and Ma Kui and Wang Gang walked in.

When Wang Yongge saw Ma Kui, he subconsciously hid behind Wang Xin, not daring to look into Ma Kui's angry eyes.

"So many things happened on the train back then." Ma Kui said to Wang Yongge angrily: "Mr. Wang, you have caused me so much trouble. If Wang Gang hadn't tricked me here today, I would never know the truth in my life."

Wang Yongge shrank his neck and said guiltily: "Ma Kui, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong back then and caused you to be imprisoned for ten years, but I had no choice. Wang Xin was only eight years old at the time. If I went to jail, he would not be able to survive."

"My daughter was only eight years old at the time." Ma Kui's eyes widened and he shouted, "My wife had to take care of our daughter, work, and compensate the fugitive's family. She worked herself to the point of developing lung disease."

Wang Gang saw the neighbors hearing the noise and gradually rushing towards the Wang family, so he said, "Uncle Ma, Uncle Wang, let's find a quieter place to talk."

"Wang Yongge, come with me to the police station and surrender yourself." Ma Kui stopped talking nonsense and reached out to grab Wang Yongge.

"No, Master." Wang Xin stood in front of Ma Kui and begged, "My father didn't do it on purpose, and your case is over. Why are you still holding on to it?"

Ma Kui said angrily: "I want an explanation for my ten years in prison."

"I want everyone to know that I didn't kill anyone. It was him, Wang Yongge, who killed someone."
