Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

In the interrogation room.

Qin Huairu, who was handcuffed to the interrogation chair, looked at Wei Dayong and Ma Hongjun who were standing opposite her with serious faces. She couldn't help but tremble in her legs and stammered:

"Chief Wei, why are you here?"

Wei Dayong said in a deep voice: "There is a case involving you, and I need your response. I hope you can answer truthfully."

Ma Hongjun said indifferently: "Qin Huairu, you know our policy, leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist."

Qin Huairu instantly became even more frightened, and said tremblingly: "Don't worry, I will answer truthfully."

"Cough cough..."

Wei Dayong cleared his throat and spoke word by word:

"Yesterday evening we caught a man who was following He Yuzhu. He confessed that it was Yan Bugui who asked him to follow He Yuzhu in order to find out who He Yuzhu was with."

"Then we interrogated Yan Bugui, and Yan Bugui confessed to Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao, and you."

"Xu Damao and the other two said that you were the mastermind behind this matter. They said that you were afraid that He Yuzhu would stop supporting your family after he got married, so you wanted to destroy He Yuzhu's marriage and prevent him from getting married forever. Is what they said true?"

Qin Huairu's pupils trembled when she heard this, and she spoke incoherently:

"Section...Section Chief, they are lying. I am not the mastermind. These three are the masterminds."

"Xu Damao and He Yuzhu have had a grudge since childhood. Yi Zhonghai wants He Yuzhu to take care of him in his old age, and Yan Bugui ruined his reputation because of He Yuzhu, so the three of them don't want to see He Yuzhu get married."

"I was forced to join them because of the coercion of the three of them."

"Section Chief, you must not believe their lies!"

"Wuwu...Section Chief, I was wronged..."

As Qin Huairu spoke, tears began to fall from her eyes like pearls from a broken string.

Wei Dayong didn't believe in tears, he clapped his hands and said sternly:

"Qin Huairu, stop trying to evade the main issue and put the blame on others. The three of them said you were the mastermind. What can you be wronged for?"

"Wow... Chief, I'm really being wronged. I'm really not the mastermind!"

"Then why did Xu Damao and the other two say that you were the mastermind and not others?"

"This...this, the three of them must have thought that I was a widow and easy to bully, so they pushed the main responsibility to me."

Wei Dayong was silent for a while, and said expressionlessly:

"Qin Huairu, don't say I didn't give you a chance. Only if you explain the whole cause and effect of the matter can you reduce your guilt."

Qin Huairu heard this and said anxiously: "Thank you, Chief. I will tell you the whole story."

"In fact, there is no mastermind behind this matter. None of the four of us wanted He Yuzhu to get married. Since we had the same goal, the four of us quickly united together."

"If we have to name a mastermind, it should be Yan Bugui."

"Yan Bugui lives at the front door of the yard. The day before yesterday, Sunday, he saw He Yuzhu dressed up and went out. He guessed that He Yuzhu was going on a blind date, so he found Yi Zhonghai, then me, and finally Xu Damao..."

Qin Huairu finally finished telling the story in a halting and stammering manner.

Wei Dayong said with a straight face: "This shouldn't be the first time you have ruined He Yuzhu's marriage, right?"

Qin Huairu hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, this is the first time."

Wei Dayong snorted coldly: "It's already this late, what else do you have to hide? Yan Bugui and the others have confessed."

Qin Huairu cried and said, "I have no choice. I am a widow with a lazy mother-in-law and three hungry children..."

Wei Dayong sneered, "So you want to destroy He Yuzhu's marriage and make him childless?"

"Snapped!"

Director Ma slammed the table and angrily shouted:

"Qin Huairu, stop making excuses for your viciousness and selfishness. After your man died, the factory not only compensated your family 500 yuan, but also gave you a job."

"You earn 27.5 yuan a month, which is better than many families. What's the problem that makes you want to do such unscrupulous things?"

Qin Huairu shuddered and said weakly, "I just want to give my three children a better life."

Wei Dayong said coldly: "Qin Huairu, it seems that you have not yet realized your mistake. If you want to give your children a better life, you can work hard to learn skills, improve your fitter level, and get a higher salary instead of waiting for others' charity.

"You shouldn't be so mad as to destroy other people's marriages just for your own selfish interests."

"A selfish, vicious woman like you would have been beaten to death before liberation."

Qin Huairu saw Wei Dayong was angry and quickly admitted her mistake: "Chief Wei, I know I was wrong, and I promise not to make the same mistake again."

Wei Dayong said angrily: "Tell me no, and wait for the factory's decision!"

Qin Huairu's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she said anxiously:

"Chief, the factory won't fire me, right?"

"Wow...please don't fire me. There are five people in my family and I'm the only one doing this job. If I get fired, my whole family will starve to death."

Wei Dayong looked at Qin Huairu who was crying bitterly, without any sympathy, and said coldly: "If I had known this would happen, I would not have done it in the first place."

"Section Chief, will the factory really fire me?"

"I don't know. This needs to be discussed with the leadership. You wait for the result!"

After saying this, Wei Dayong turned and walked out of the interrogation room.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu cried out, "Chief Wei, I beg you, if you can help me beg for mercy, I will repay you even if I work like a cow or a horse."

Wei Dayong pretended not to hear and turned and walked into another interrogation room.

After Wei Dayong left, Qin Huairu instantly collapsed on the interrogation chair, her eyes dull and distracted, and she looked as if she had lost all hope.

Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of grief and grief coming from the house, which was so desolate and heartbreaking.

After interrogating Qin Huairu, Wei Dayong began to interrogate Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai tried his best to deny it at first, but faced with ironclad evidence, he finally gave up.

Yi Zhonghai was extremely anxious. He didn't expect that he would be so unlucky that these two things happened at the same time.

He knew that he was in big trouble this time. Even if he was not fired, he would definitely be severely punished.

"Chief Wei, your interrogation techniques are amazing. I have benefited a lot from them."

"Director Ma, you are too kind. Your interrogation skills are definitely better than mine."

"I'm far worse than you! Chief Wei, it's still early, come to my office for some tea!"

"Maybe next time! The factory is still waiting for my investigation results."

Ma Hongjun sighed and said, "Chief Wei, you should have come earlier. If you had come earlier, we could have given these two bastards a lot of punishment."

Wei Dayong frowned and asked, "Has the verdict on Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu come out?"

Ma Hongjun nodded and said, "Yes, both of them were sentenced to only one month."

Wei Dayong frowned and asked, "Why is it so light?"

Ma Hongjun whispered, "Your factory director begged for mercy."
