Our family is in decline

Chapter 238 Interrogation

"I didn't!" the man shouted, standing up suddenly and startling those people.

But he did not attack other people, but crashed into the pile set up in the square.

Just for a moment, the whole person tilted his head and fell, his eyes were blurred by blood, and there was only the distant sound in his ears.

The last thought in his mind now is not to leave any negative impression on his family...

The man fell down and blood poured from his head. This scene immediately stunned everyone. Those who were filled with indignation just now retreated, looked around in panic, and defended themselves.

"It has nothing to do with us, he bumped into it himself."

"Damn guy, he committed suicide out of fear of crime." Even the foreman who looked disdainful just now showed a trace of panic and kept repeating, trying to characterize this matter.

"Come on, let's go... Let's get started." The crowd that had gathered together just now was about to disperse in just a few seconds, leaving the blood flowing on the ground.

"You can't leave!" A loud shout sounded, accompanied by fierce barking.

William held Figgus in one hand, raised the spiked baton in the other, and glanced at everyone.

Not just him, but several uniformed police officers with brass badges on their chests stopped these people.

When Lance left, he made perfect arrangements. The security outside the town was under the control of the army, and the security of the town was under the control of the security team.

For this reason, he expanded the members of the security team and selected a few from the group of soldiers who retired voluntarily to join them, so that the hard work in the training camp was not wasted.

It is difficult for these people to assume the functions of the army, but they can adapt quickly to the much easier task of public security management, and their treatment is better than that of ordinary townspeople. It can be regarded as a way out of the army.

It was obvious that the agitation just now alerted the town's sheriff, which led to the current scene.

After William came to Hamlet, he was constantly learning. When faced with this situation, he immediately took out a first aid kit from his waist pocket and bandaged the injured to stop the bleeding.

Ordinary people are naturally inferior to the security forces. Those people couldn't afford to offend William, so they had to be restricted for a while.

It's just that most of them didn't have an accurate understanding of why they were involved in this matter, and they even muttered some curse words when they saw William rescuing people.

"Why save anything? This kind of person should just die."

"That's right, this is the kind of guy I hate the most."

"..."

William heard some too, but as a magistrate, he would not stop just because of these words.

People who have been working at the bottom know that sometimes things may not be that simple, and everything must be investigated before they have the right to speak.

Soon William finished bandaging the wounded man's head, and it was up to him whether he could survive.

"Everyone, be silent!" William stood up and shouted, looking at the restricted crowd, waving his baton to signal, "Take them all back to register, no whispering."

"This guy failed to bribe me. When I refused, he committed suicide out of fear of his crime. So many people watched him bump into him. What does it have to do with us?"

"Let's go, this matter needs to be investigated before we know it." William did not listen to one word and just waved his hand.

This was Hamlet's first bloody case, and it was during a sensitive time when the lord left. He had to take it seriously no matter what.

Because no one knows whether it is the conspiracy of those cults.

When the foreman saw William's businesslike look, he couldn't help but pull out the big flag.

"What I am responsible for now is an important task assigned by the lord. Can you be responsible for delaying the development of the Western Wilderness?"

What this means is obvious. The foreman is showing his energy, otherwise he would not be responsible for such an important thing.

Others were afraid of the vigilantes, but not him.

I am an orthodox Hamlet, how dare these stinky foreigners try to touch me!

And it can be clearly seen that when the foreman finished speaking, those people unconsciously approached him.

It is human nature to follow the crowd, not to mention that they were involved in this matter, and their interests were basically with the foreman.

William naturally heard the threat and looked at the foreman with a slightly solemn expression.

But he was never frightened by this. He frowned because the foreman's attitude was a bit abnormal.

"If you really have no problem, don't worry. They will be released after investigation. I will not wrongly accuse any good people, and I will not let any bad people go."

William's attitude made the foreman a little unhappy.

Ever since he became the foreman, he had to call everyone he met. Who dared to talk to him like this?

"Where were you when I was in Hamlet?"

"It has nothing to do with this case."

"You dare to touch me! I want to..."

"Do you want to resist law enforcement?" William shouted and suddenly let go of the dog leash.

Figgus also jumped forward and barked as if he was cooperating. By the time William tightened the rope, the dog was already in front of the foreman. If it weren't for the rope holding him in his hand, the bite would have been serious.

The foreman was so frightened by this sudden scene that his words were stuck in his throat, but when he reacted, the look on his face was obviously very angry.

"You...what are you going to do?" But the fear was still difficult to conceal, and he could only say some words to cover it up, "Humph! Just go, what am I afraid of."

"Take it away." William didn't bother to pay attention to his nonsense.

The leader's style will greatly affect the style of the entire department. The security team under William's leadership showed a tough and neat attitude.

The security team is now stationed in a two-story brick shop next to the original square, which is why they responded so quickly.

But it can't accommodate so many people.

"Carry the wounded in and squat the rest outside. No talking to each other is allowed. If found, they will be detained and severely punished."

William did not choose a foreman, but randomly selected someone to go in and take a statement, "You come in with me to register."

The person who was clicked was a little flustered and couldn't help but glance at the foreman before going in. This small action aroused William's suspicion even more.

But he didn't say anything. Instead, he took off the leash and released Figs. "Whoever speaks will bite."

William raised his hand to stroke the dog's head, but his words were not polite at all, which frightened the suspects.

Why whisper? That's because William knew that if he wanted to extract a valid confession, he had to prevent them from colluding.

They were instinctively afraid of law enforcement agencies. When they saw the wandering hound, they couldn't help but shut their mouths tightly. Even the foreman did not speak, but the look he looked at William was a bit vicious.

I will definitely report this guy when the lord comes back!

"Tell me, what happened on the square?"

"We all came here to gather and prepare to go...and then he bumped into him..."

After the man finished speaking, William pondered for a moment and asked back.

"So you didn't see the bribe, you just heard it said?"

As he spoke, William's tone became serious and reminded: "Remember that you are responsible for what you say. If you lie, you will be included as an accomplice. Only by telling the truth can I clear your suspicion. "

Originally, these people were just watching and making noises. Just now they were excited, but now they are trembling and can't even speak coherently.

"I don't know. After signing in, a few people and I went to prepare the moving tools and get into the car. When we heard the sound and looked over, the man had already fallen to the ground."

"Do you recognize the injured person? Have you seen him before when you signed up?"

"I don't know him, really. I just passed by Hu Hui and took a look." The man also looked helpless. He walked over out of curiosity, but he didn't expect to be caught.

But he never mentioned what he had just said, showing an innocent look.

The man denied it vehemently, and William did not continue to question him. He registered his name, pressed his fingerprints, and let him out.

The man came out and immediately attracted the attention of those outside. William glanced at him, picked one out and called him in.

"You really don't know?"

"Although we were at the same construction site before, I'm not familiar with him. I haven't seen anything and I don't know anything." One person shook his head and denied it, but he was the one who lined up to sign up with the man before.

The process was almost complete, and soon William discovered the clues after interrogating several people.

Most people have never seen the so-called bribery. Even if they say they have seen it, they are vague about it. If you ask, they don't know.

These people gave William the feeling that they were uncooperative and didn't know anything he asked.

Having dealt with too many people at the bottom, William knew what they were afraid of, and he could feel that the foreman was affecting them.

It’s just that William didn’t know and didn’t let them speak, so how could it affect them?

The clues were interrupted, and William could not torture him to extract a confession, so he could only take the person out.

The foreman outside glanced at the man, and then at William's stern face. He seemed to understand something in his heart, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

Now he is not in a hurry and has delayed the lord's arrangements. He wants to see how this guy will end up.

Of course William noticed this, but he couldn't just give up. He had to find a way to find out the truth.

Just when he was at a loss what to do, a woman holding a child trotted over. The child couldn't keep up and was being pulled, but he didn't cry or make a fuss.

After the identity of the injured person was determined, William asked someone to call the family members, and at this moment he knew that the family members of the injured person had finally arrived.

"Sir, what's wrong with my husband?" The woman's face was full of panic. It was obvious that the family could not bear such a disaster again.

"He was just injured and unconscious. If treated promptly, there should be no life-threatening danger." William quickly explained the situation and brought the person to the injured person.

When the woman saw her husband lying unconscious on the side with blood-oozing gauze wrapped around his head, she couldn't help crying.

"Why is this happening...you were fine when you left in the morning...I don't want any money...I just want you to be fine...come back soon..."

The child who was following him seemed to realize something, and his confused expression began to be replaced by fear. He remembered the day his sister disappeared, and he has not seen her since then...

Even the people outside couldn't help but have some strange emotions. Everyone was rescued from that kind of suffering by the lord. It can be said that they feel the same way.

Even the foreman seemed a little uncomfortable, but his uneasiness was quickly overshadowed by resentment.

William couldn't help but didn't react much when he saw this. His duty was to find out the truth. Although there were doubts now, the suspicion of the injured could not be completely ruled out.

All he can do is continue to investigate and let the truth speak.

"Madam, what we need now is to clarify the situation. Please come in with me."

The woman also reacted. She took the child and began to understand what was going on. However, when she heard that her husband had bribed her, she strongly argued.

"Impossible, he is not this kind of person, and I cooked this egg for him to eat on the road. Last night, we agreed to go to the west to develop today."

Her words immediately made William react and quickly asked.

"You mean he told you last night that he joined Western Development?"

"I told you that I quit my job at the construction site because of this, and I also bought fish and eggs."

"Please tell me in detail, you can restore the truth and help him get rid of suspicion." William knew that he had found a clue to solve the problem.

Those workers basically didn't speak, and what they said was nonsense.

But women don't lie to anything.

He quickly explained the situation last night, and William also found the next clue. He directly called a sheriff and asked him to find the man's last foreman who had been at the construction site, as well as the operator of the shop.

William once again asked the woman one thing, about the guy who had previously denied knowing the injured person.

"Why don't we know each other on the same street? We were working part-time at the same construction site before. I heard from my husband that they also got quotas."

At this moment, William raised his eyebrows slightly on his stiff face and called the person in directly.

"You have committed a crime, you know!" William shouted unceremoniously as soon as he entered the door.

The sound almost scared the man out of his soul, and his face turned pale instantly. He didn't even dare to raise his head and look at the woman, let alone look at William.

Obviously he knew what he had done, but he didn't dare or couldn't admit it, so he could only deny it.

"I don't know, I really don't know anything."

"How could you do this! You guys are obviously very familiar with each other..." The tears that the woman had just stopped when she heard these words came back again.

"Still resisting! Deception and false testimony, any of these two things are enough to disqualify you and expel Hamlet." William did not expect that this guy was still resisting, and his tone became more serious again.

When the man heard this, he couldn't hold back at all. He couldn't give up his identity as Hamlet. He couldn't lose everything and return to the life of a refugee. He knelt down on the ground and cried.

"Let me go, I am older and younger, I beg you..."
