Chapter 78: The First Step of Revenge
Lin Chen's words revealed determination, as if he was willing to do anything for me as long as I asked.
How many times have I asked Lin Chen for help regardless of my face, but he always ignored me. But now, without me saying anything, he actually asked for help, which moved me very much.
My scarred heart also gained some comfort. I looked straight at Lin Chen and said sincerely: "Thank you, but it's not needed yet."
Something has happened to Lin Qingzhu, and Lin Chen is too direct and reckless in his actions. I don't want to implicate him, and I won't let him help unless it is absolutely necessary.
When Lin Chen heard what I said, he didn't stop talking nonsense. He said directly to me: "Okay, if you need me, just come to me." After saying that, he entered the Internet cafe.
I was still sitting on the small stool, looking deeply ahead. The noise in the Internet cafe and the bustle of Ping An Street had nothing to do with me. I was only immersed in my own thoughts.
At eleven o'clock in the morning, I stood up, and then I took a step, left the Internet cafe, and returned to my home.
To take revenge, the first step is to find out who the murderer is. My house was almost burned to ashes. There will definitely be no useful clues here, but there is a chance to find witnesses. There was a fire in my house, and my father
He was burned alive. It was impossible that no one knew about such a big move.
Last time, the police said that no suspicious people were seen in the surrounding neighbourhoods. It must be because the neighbors did not want to get into trouble and would not say anything even if they saw something. In addition, the police did not pay much attention to the death of a low-level person like my dad.
They would take it so seriously, so they settled the case hastily. I couldn't place my hope on the police, and I didn't plan to take legal action. I just wanted to find the murderer myself and kill my enemy.
However, the reason why I chose to come to my house at this time is because my house caught fire that day, which was around this time. I came here now just to see how my neighbors were doing, and to see who would be at home at this time.
This area of my home is a slum area in the old city. The people living around are not rich. Most of the houses here are bungalows and tile-roofed houses. But in front of my home is a two-story building. The quality of this family is very low.
Don't treat me and my dad as human beings. We don't have sewers here. All the sewage discharged from their house flows to the door of my house. If my dad even talks about it, he will be scolded by his family and they will bully my dad.
He is an honest person. Sometimes when my dad makes some noise while cleaning up the rags he picked up at night, he will be cursed by his family. They scold my dad, and they are always merciless and have no moral integrity at all.
I have always hated this neighbor very much. I don't want to pass by their house when I walk.
Today I carefully observed the surroundings and found that the place where I can see my house at a glance is his house. Their house is high and close to my house. If there is any movement here, they can definitely see it. Moreover, at this time
, someone in their house happened to be cooking, and this is usually the time for them to cook. It happened that the window of their kitchen was facing my house. There was a fire in my house that day, and such a big thing happened. Even if their family was in the kitchen, they could
You can see clearly through the window.
The other neighbors' houses were either in a bad location, or the window openings did not face my house, or they were unoccupied. Therefore, the family most likely to see the murderer at that time was the family in front of my house.
So, without any delay, I immediately arrived at the door of their house.
At this moment, the door to his house was not closed, but there was no one in the lobby. I stood at the door and knocked hard on the open door. Immediately, a loud female voice sounded: "Who is it?"
As soon as I heard this voice, I knew that the speaker was the hostess of this house, Zou Qin.
I didn't answer and just continued to knock on the door. After a while, a middle-aged woman in her forties came out angrily. When she saw me at the door, her eyes suddenly showed disgust. She came to
In front of me, she said to me very rudely: "Why are you knocking on my door?" Obviously, she was not happy with my interruption.
Zou Qin is a well-known shrew in our area. She has a very hot temper and is particularly snobbish. She looks down on poor families like mine. She has been a neighbor for many years, and she always rides on our family.
Just because my dad didn't get angry or resist, she scolded my dad all day long, and she scolded me as harshly as possible. She never had a good face towards me, and I really didn't want to deal with such a person, but for the sake of
Regarding my dad, I could only say to her as politely as possible: "Aunt Zou, I just want to ask, when my dad died, did you see anyone coming to my house?"
Zou Qin didn't hesitate and said four words to me: "I don't know."
These words were obviously perfunctory. I knew it was difficult to talk through this kind of person, but I still tried to request: "Aunt Zou, my father died unjustly. I hope you can tell me what you saw.
"
Zou Qin is different from other neighbors. Others have some sympathy for my father's death, but this Zou Qin has no sympathy at all. When she heard what I said, she rolled her eyes and said disgustedly to me: "
Didn’t the police officer tell you? Your dad died in an accident. Your dad was always short-lived. Isn’t it normal to die in an accident? "Zou Qin used to often call my dad a short-lived ghost. It seems that my dad is dead.
, she is still happy.
Hearing her words, endless anger suddenly emerged in my heart. My eyes turned cold, but I still suppressed the anger. I faced her and said patiently: "I'm sure
, this is not an accident, someone murdered my dad. If you saw anyone suspicious that day, please tell me, I will be grateful to you."
After hearing what I said, Zou Qin was not happy. She scolded me: "Are you deaf? I have told you several times, but I don't know."
At this time, Zou Qin's husband Luo Changxin walked out of it. As he walked towards it, he made a dissatisfied voice to Zou Qin: "Why don't you go back to cook? What are you talking about here?"
I couldn't make sense with Zou Qin, a shrew, so I quickly said to Luo Changxin who was walking over: "Uncle Luo, I want to ask..."
Before I even finished speaking, Luo Changxin yelled at me: "Get out!" With that, he closed the door heavily.
Standing outside this thick door, I can still hear Luo Changxin's voice in the house: "What should I say to this broomstick? He has dragged his father to death and wants to harm us. This fool doesn't even think about it.
Can we, the common people, afford to offend someone who is capable of committing murder and arson? You should not pay any attention to him!"
"Yes, this little beast is really shameless, and he still wants us to testify for him? He should be burned to death with this fire, so as not to harm others."
There is nothing wrong with saying that good people can be bullied. This dog couple has bullied my father all his life, and now they are even less polite to me. Their consciences have really been eaten by dogs.
However, my trip was not in vain. At least, through their words, I could tell that they were sure that my father did not die in an accident. They must have seen the suspect. They were determined not to get into trouble just because they didn’t want to get into trouble.
Will tell me.
After a pause, I turned around and left. I took big steps and went straight to the gate of Lantian Vocational School. Here, I dialed Tian Zhigang's number.
As soon as the call was connected, I immediately said: "Brother Gang, I want to ask you for a favor." To let a family like Luo Changxin and Zou Qin speak the truth, you can't do it softly, you can only do it hard, and I am the only one.
No one can be tough on them, so I thought of Tian Zhigang. Tian Zhigang is a relatively upright person, and he knows about my father's affairs. Therefore, I think it is most appropriate to ask Tian Zhigang for help in dealing with Zou Qin's family.
Tian Zhigang learned about my situation from Wang Shiqi, and he was quite sympathetic to me. Now that he heard that I needed help, he immediately said without hesitation: "No problem, what do you need me to do?"
I replied: "I need you to bring me some brothers, do you have any?"
Tian Zhigang replied readily: "Okay, how much do you want?"
I immediately said, "Whatever, it depends on your ability. I'll wait for you at the gate of your school." Tian Zhigang was in a vocational school and was doing well, so I didn't expect him to be able to lead many people.
Tian Zhigang said to me: "Okay." and hung up the phone.
I stood at the gate of Lantian and waited quietly. After waiting for about ten minutes, Tian Zhigang came out. Behind him were sixty or seventy strong boys.
As soon as he approached me, Tian Zhigang pointed at the group of brothers behind him and said proudly to me: "How about it, is that enough?"
To be honest, I didn’t expect Tian Zhigang to lead so many people. I couldn’t help but ask: “Why do you have so many brothers?”
Tian Zhigang leaned into my ear and whispered: "Actually, many of them are here for you, because Lin Chen, you have become famous in our school. After Bai Wentao fell, I thought that I had some relationship with you.
Now that I have become a little boss, many brothers are willing to hang out with me. Just now, I said you were in need, and as soon as I waved, all these people followed me without hesitation. If there are not enough, I can still get a group of them."
After listening to Tian Zhigang's words, I was a little shocked. Before, I thought that if Tian Zhigang could call more than a dozen people, it would be enough. But I didn't expect that Lin Chen's influence was so great that even Tian Zhigang was affected.
With preferential treatment, I can call so many brothers at will. This is naturally a good thing. I did not hesitate and said immediately: "No, that's enough."
After listening to my words, Tian Zhigang smiled with satisfaction, and then he asked me: "What are we going to do?"
I muttered: "Go and seek justice."
