Chapter 460: Choose, you have to bear

"See me?" Li Mao looked a little surprised.

After being surprised, she suddenly laughed out loud, glanced at the two people in the room and the open office door: "Interesting, seeing me at this time, are you thinking of asking me to help her plead for you?"

"Is that so? Why don't we summon him and ask him about it?
Anyway, I have to write a report on everything I've come into contact with you today.

With me here, you don't have to worry about anything."

Bai Ling put away her notebook, stood up and stretched.

After taking a look at Li Mao who was still hesitating, Bai Ling stood up and shook her slender waist under her loose cotton coat.

He walked to the phone through his clothes, picked up the phone and made a call.

After the call ended, Bai Ling blinked her eyes, and with her left hand, she gestured a "please" gesture:
"They will be at the security department soon. Director Li, are you going to take a few steps? To be honest, I also want to know what Xu Yueling wants to tell you.

As your neighbor in the front yard and Yuanyuan’s best friend.

Director Li shouldn't mind my little curiosity, right? Don't worry, if I hear something I shouldn't, I will definitely tell Yuanyuan before you confess. "

Li Mao paused, looking at the funny Bai Ling, he couldn't tell what he felt: "Sister Bai Ling said this.

It seems like there is something going on between Xu Yueling and me. Didn’t I just say that? I’m also curious about what she wants to say.”

A group of people came to the security department.

It didn't take long before Director Wang, the street office, and the people who came with Bai Ling escorted Xu Yueling to the scene.

After handcuffing the man to the chair and eliminating some possible dangers, Li Mao was allowed to enter the interrogation room.

Just as Bai Ling herself said.

As external assets increase.

Too many people don't want to see anything happen to Li Mao.

"Tap~"

The soles of the shoes collided with the cement ground, making a clattering sound.

Xu Yueling, whose pupils were dark and full of lifelessness, suddenly burst into smiles the moment she saw Li Mao enter the interrogation room.

Ignore the looks from others who looked at me as if I was crazy.

Xu Yueling, who was laughing until tears came out of the corners of her eyes, leaned back on the chair as if she had lost her temper.

He stared at Li Mao with his eyes and spoke sincerely: "It's great that I can see Brother Li Mao before I die. It's great."

An emotional release filled with determination and mixed with relief.

Everyone who heard Xu Yueling's words inevitably frowned.

Relieved?

This is not a good thing.

A person whose heart is filled with the intention of death and relief will definitely not say much at this moment, even if there are other people behind him.

Li Mao took a deep breath, took a few steps forward, dragged a chair, and walked straight to Xu Yueling.

Eye to eye.

The distance between the two was less than three feet at this moment.

"Tell me, why did you do such a stupid thing?"

He took out a blue handkerchief from his pocket and placed it in Xu Yueling's hand.

This sentence, which was not too harsh, made Xu Yueling, who had just stopped crying, burst into tears: "Wow. Brother Li Mao. Brother Li Mao."

Xu Yueling kept repeating these words, crying and letting the tears drip down her cheeks.

He held the blue handkerchief tightly in his hands, unwilling to wipe his face.

No one spoke in the interrogation room.

Everyone, including Li Mao, remained silent and waited.

After waiting for Xu Yueling to vent, he calmed down and continued speaking.

The overhead light in the interrogation room was on at this moment.

Compared with the yellow light bulbs used in ordinary people's homes, the white light has an indescribable sense of coldness.

The cold wind that squeezed in through the crack in the door made it seem even more desolate.

Li Mao just watched quietly, without a trace of anxiety on his face.

Looking at the crying Xu Yueling, I didn’t know what to say.

Young? Not really.

But at this age in the countryside, she is at least a mother.

"I'm sorry, Brother Li Mao."

Xu Yueling clutched her handkerchief and raised her head.

Eyes red from tears look so sad.

"Tell me, why did you do such a stupid thing?" Li Mao shook his head, just looked into Xu Yueling's eyes and repeated the previous question.

"why?"

Xu Yueling lowered her head, looking at the lines on the blue handkerchief in her palm, muttering "why" to herself, her thoughts drifting further and further away.

Unconsciously, my thoughts drifted back to the day when I returned to the courtyard.

"Yes, why? Maybe it's because I'm unwilling to accept it."

Xu Yueling raised her head, and her voice was mixed with a hint of trembling and emotion that she couldn't even explain.

“Sometimes I wonder, if my brother had not been forced by Yi Zhonghai to change his words, would I have been able to become Xiaomei’s best friend like Yu Shui?

Brother Li Mao, I don’t understand why some people do something wrong and then blame others as if nothing happened.

It's obviously all the fault of the Jia family, it's all the fault of Jia Dongxu and Yi Zhonghai, why, why, it's my brother who is punished again and again.
I clearly hadn't done anything wrong, but after graduating from high school, I didn't get a job and had to go to the countryside to provide support. I completed my work with great difficulty while being ostracized and looked down upon.

Obviously I am the most innocent one.

But why are the neighbors saying that Qin Huairu is innocent?

Isn't Qin Huairu from the Jia family? Didn't she enjoy the money Jia Dongxu stole from the steel mill?
Why, why as long as Jia Dongxu is gone, everything will be selectively forgotten? !
Why on earth could Sha Zhu be nice to Qin Huairu like nothing happened even though Bang Geng sent Sha Zhu's father to jail?

I don’t understand, Brother Li Mao, please tell me why this is happening.”

As she spoke, Xu Yueling started crying again.

My hands were propped up on the chair and I couldn't move them easily, so I could only lower my head and use the back of my hands to wipe away the tears that kept falling.

"Many times, the things we do that seem bad are just immoral and do not violate the law."

Li Mao sighed silently, and said something with emotion, but he didn't go into details. He changed to another question: "So, you are unwilling?"

Maybe when Xu Damao has no future.

In a sense, the Xu family is already dead.

The old Xu family has given up hope and has no intention of taking care of their daughter Xu Yueling, let alone paying attention to her mental health.

With no one to guide her and facing exclusion in all aspects of life, Xu Yueling's thinking reached a dead end.

"Yes, I am unwilling to accept this. Why do I end up in this situation while the Jia family lives a stable life?

I am unwilling to accept this. It is obvious that my brother was forced and coerced by Yi Zhonghai. Why should my brother be held responsible?

Obviously, he was the one who reported it in the beginning! Why, why didn't Qin Huaian come forward to correct it?

Why, why doesn’t Qin Huaian speak up for my brother!
Isn't he from the security department?
When my brother changed his words, why didn't he tell my brother that the consequences would be so serious! "

Xu Yueling grabbed her hair with both hands and cried hysterically.

While crying and wailing, his body seemed to be out of control and he kept stomping his feet towards the opposite side.

The duang, duang sound of the recoil is like a heavy drum hitting my heart.

After a long while, Xu Yueling, who had pulled a lot of hair in her hands and had a layer of blood on her scalp, laughed wildly in self-abandonment: "Qin Huairu? Hahaha, report? Certificate? Hahaha! Do you know? Lao Zhang said that he saw with his own eyes that Banggeng took the money to buy animal medicine.

What was his excuse? His father was not good enough, but he was too embarrassed to buy it.

Who could have thought? Who could have thought! Jia Zhang, this old hag, was actually sent in by a stick!

Such a vicious child actually cares about him?

Scum, scum."

No one spoke in the interrogation room. They looked at each other, and were all stunned by what Xu Yueling said.

Jia Zhangshi was actually tricked by Bang Geng?!

Looking at the shock in each other's eyes, everyone suddenly remembered that Banggeng's ear and the unusable tools seemed to be related to Cui Dake.

so.
Is Cui Dake’s death Banggeng’s revenge?
Just when everyone was in doubt, Li Mao seemed unaffected and asked in a steady tone, "The Jia family didn't lose any money. Where did Banggeng get the money to buy medicine?"

"Money? Where does it come from?"

Xu Yueling raised her head and looked into Li Mao's clear eyes that contained no contempt. She felt as if a needle had pierced her heart. She was confused and guilty. She lowered her head and tried to curl up her body: "I don't know, and Lao Zhang doesn't know either. I only know that it was a three-yuan bill."

Xu Yueling was stunned. It was not until this moment that she realized that she had not discovered such a big loophole.

"Three dollars? That's definitely not the Jia family's money.

When the family was clearing out their assets, all the neighbors were watching, and it was discovered that the Jia family did not have any banknotes worth more than one yuan.

Even if there were some before, they were all exchanged for Mao and Fen tickets by Jia Zhang later.”

Li Mao shook his head, not knowing what expression to use to face it.

"It's not the Jia family's money? It's not stolen money? There's someone else? There's someone behind this? Who is it? Who is it?"

Xu Yueling was mumbling incoherently, acting crazy, just like a mental patient.

Li Mao frowned at Xu Yueling's performance, worried that he might get into trouble if he continued to ask, so he clapped his hands and said, "Among those people you mentioned before, I think I heard Qin Huaian?
Do you hate Qin Huaian for not telling Xu Damao the consequences of changing his story and giving false testimony?"

"Brother Li Mao is so smart. I hold a grudge against him. Of course I hold a grudge against him."

Xu Yueling raised her head again, laughing wantonly, with the corners of her mouth grinning wildly: "Not only Qin Huaian, but also Sha Zhu, Yan Jiecheng, Qin Huairu, and Yi Zhonghai! I hate them all, I hate them!"

Hearing the name Xu Yueling muttered, Li Mao narrowed his eyes and didn't want to ask any more questions.

He shook his head and stood up.

Without looking at Xu Yueling who was tightly clutching the blue handkerchief, he turned around and left.

come back to the office.

Lou Xiao'e thoughtfully brought a cup of hot tea.

The floating tea leaves rolled up and down, and the mist from the boiling hot water made Li Mao squint his eyes.

Bai Ling is not in the office.

The people she brought with her were not at the factory at this time.

In the huge office, there were only Li Mao and Lou Xiao'e.

"Li Mao and Xu Yueling are so pitiful."

Lou Xiao'e, who served the tea and then stood aside, spoke in a somewhat emotional tone.

The slightly rosy eyes were faintly sparkling.

"Is it pitiful?"

Li Mao asked back without saying anything more.

He lowered his head and looked at the cup of water in his hand, slowly falling into deep thought.

According to the name Xu Yueling read just now.

Qin Huaian lost his job, Sha Zhu and Yan Jiecheng lost their reputations, Qin Huairu lost her son, and Bang Geng lost his life.

Only Yi Zhonghai is left.

If you string them together in sequence.

It seems that Xu Yueling had been planning revenge for a long time.

This even included the woman who took advantage of Xu Damao to enter the city.

"Dong Dong~"

A dull knock on the door woke Li Mao from his deep thoughts.

After taking a look at Bai Ling standing at the door, Li Mao stroked the teacup in his hand, not knowing what tone to use in the subsequent interrogation.

Li Mao now understood Xu Yueling's intention of wanting to see him.

But the more I understand, the heavier my heart becomes.

"What? You can't stand it anymore?"

Bai Ling didn't look at the teacup she had used before.

Although it belonged to her, it had after all left her sight.

People like Bai Ling will definitely not continue to taste something once it has left their sight.

Of course, even if he hadn't left, the cup of tea had been drunk three times and would have lost its flavor.

He took a clean one from the thermos, refilled it with tea leaves, and held it in his hands to warm his palms.

While slowly pacing in the room, he did not forget to tease Li Mao.

Seeing that Li Mao did not respond, Bai Ling just narrowed her eyes and said thoughtfully: "When we first entered the city.

Many people in the city are much more miserable than Xu Yueling.

There were prostitutes who were sold to the Eight Great Hutongs because of famine, and there were ordinary people who were forced to sell their lives to those people.

There were also various industries that could not produce any profit and were urgently wiped out before the team entered the city.

There were also poor people who were forced to rob grain stores because grain merchants drove up prices.

There were so many poor people, and it was impossible to save them at that time.

Many times, those people just take one wrong step.

But if you make a mistake, all the steps will go wrong, and once you make a mistake, there is no way to recover. "

In my ears was Bai Ling's voice, which had become heavy with memories.

Because of the memories, even when he spoke, there was inevitably a heaviness that Li Mao had never experienced before.

"Why are you telling me this?"

Li Mao shook his head and couldn't help laughing.

He picked up the teacup in his hand, shook it slightly, blew on the tea leaves floating on it, and took a sip.

What Li Mao drinks now is not Gaosui.

Each strand and each piece are clearly distinguishable, and they are all top-quality products sold outside our hometown.

"What else can I do? I'm still worried about you.

After all, Xu Yueling is a neighbor in the same courtyard. She was so sad that her last thought after being arrested was to take a look at you.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, as a man with little experience, you will definitely feel guilty and annoyed.

Sometimes you even wonder, if you had given her a hand when assigning the job, would you not be in this situation now?

Li Mao, as a friend, I have to tell you solemnly.

There are no ifs in life.

If you make a choice, you have to pay the price.

Even in fairy tales, before a happy ending, there will be contributions and sacrifices made by various small people.

There are many, very many poor people.

Li Mao, you must keep a clear head and deal with things outside or in the machinery factory."

Bai Ling's solemn warning did not cause Li Mao's dissatisfaction.

There are some things that only true friends can say.

Just like Bai Ling’s last words.

Li Mao dared to guarantee that that sentence was definitely not something that someone asked her to convey specifically.

A clear mind. So. Can't make mistakes?

Someone is following him?

Despite having made so many contributions, someone still targeted him!

As he pondered the meaning of this sentence in his mind, Li Mao's thoughts were instantly in turmoil.
