After rebirth, I still experienced a mess

209 If you commit a crime, you must accept the punishment

The prison guard brought in two waitresses. Xiao Wei pointed at a waitress who was in her thirties and said, "This lady is enough for one person."

Shanzi once said: It is pure nonsense that one can tell a person's true character over time. The intuition you get when you first meet someone is the most accurate, and only those who make you feel comfortable are trustworthy.

The woman's name was Chu Qiu, and she looked at least three-quarters like Jiang Yingying. It was clearly a random name. She was kind-looking, simple-minded and quiet.

The reason why Xiao Wei chose this one was mainly because it looked very clean and more pleasing to the eye than the other one.

According to her, she originally worked as a handyman in the cafeteria and was transferred here temporarily.

Seeing that she had a military temperament in her every move, Xiao Wei just smiled and nodded, not wanting to expose her.

The iron gate rang again, and the prison guards brought in two large bags of clothing. The most conspicuous thing was the old erhu. It seemed that all his belongings and medicines on the farm had been sent over.

Adhering to the principle of making the best of what has come, Xiao Wei began to relax himself, practice his piano skills and his voice.

During dinner, Chu Qiu took a look at the food before leaving and couldn't help asking Xiao Wei: "The food is the same as that of the cadres. The girl is not an ordinary person."

Xiao Wei reminded him seriously: "It's best not to ask about my affairs, so as not to get implicated."

Chu Qiu smiled and said, "You don't look like a bad person, why would you kill someone?"

Xiao Wei asked knowingly, "How do you know I killed someone?"

Chu Qiu replied: "The people who can live here are either high-ranking officials or injured murderers. You don't look like an official."

Xiao Wei chuckled: "Would a murderer allow anyone to come in and serve him casually?"

Chu Qiu smiled and said, "I'm also surprised. You weren't seriously injured, and you weren't wearing handcuffs or leg irons. Ah, you must be the daughter of a senior official, otherwise, you wouldn't be able to play the erhu and sing so many beautiful songs."

Xiao Wei nodded: "You guessed it right. I am a murderer and have killed many people. Are you afraid?"

Chu Qiu forced a smile and said, "I am just a commoner. I have no grudge against you. How could you possibly harm me?"

Xiao Wei looked at her deeply and asked, "What did they say when they transferred you here?"

"It is said that a little girl committed a minor crime and was injured. She is not in danger and will be released after her injuries are healed."

Xiao Wei laughed: "You have been deceived. You will soon find out how dangerous I am."

The next afternoon, the prison guard brought in a young man, saying he was a newspaper reporter who wanted to interview Xiao Wei about his case.

Xiao Wei was lying on the rattan chair, still immersed in the music: "Ask, just pick the important ones."

The reporter was not polite: "Why do you store so much food for famine?"

"My family has been poor farmers for generations and we don't know how to farm. Food is free, which leads to serious waste. We will definitely starve in the next few years. The foreign powers may take advantage of our difficulties to attack us. The only reason we store food is to prepare for war and famine."

“There are so many in the county that are given away for free, why are they only borrowed and not given away in the countryside?”

"The grain in the county was bought with Sister Jiang's royalties, which is extra money. Sister Jiang originally asked us to donate it all. The grain in the countryside is my own money, so of course I have to recover some of the cost."

"You really don't know about the interest increase?"

Xiao Wei opened his eyes, looked at the reporter, played the erhu twice, and was too lazy to answer.

The reporter had to find a way out: "You donated so much, you wouldn't care about the interest, but why do you want to extend the repayment period by three years?"

Xiao Wei was still too lazy to answer and just focused on playing the erhu.

Seeing that Xiao Wei was not cooperating, the reporter had to compliment him again: "How many times have you donated to the school? How much money, meat, clothes, etc.?"

"I haven't counted it, and there's no need to boast about it."

Seeing that she was not interested, the reporter had to get straight to the point: "It was indeed a mistake to arrest you. Are you resentful that you attacked the teacher?"

"If you say yes, then it is."

"Do you know that hitting someone is a crime?"

Xiao Wei was furious: "It's a pity that I didn't beat him to death."

"Even if he is wrong, it is not a reason for you to kill people casually."

"If I encounter this kind of thing again, I will have no regrets. Even if I am convicted, I will not regret it."

"If there are conflicts, the authorities will handle them. You cannot take action privately."

"Where did the injuries on my body come from? How can I believe it?"

"Those people have been punished."

"If my child and I were killed, would the punishment allow us to be resurrected?"

"So you're going to strike first?"

Xiao Wei ignored him and continued playing the erhu.

After a minute of silence, the reporter sighed, "You are so stubborn that even gods can't save you."

Xiao Wei said disdainfully: "If you commit a crime, you must accept the punishment. There is no need to save you."

The reporter smiled bitterly: "Then you should reform yourself. There are plenty of people out there to help you deal with things."

This reporter was undoubtedly sent by Wen Yan and his team to deliver the news. Xiao Wei, who was indifferent to life and death, secretly laughed at their unnecessary actions. Even if the real crime was exposed, what would happen? At most, he would die.

In an environment where power has no boundaries, disasters have no end, and there is very little Xiao Wei can do.

However, it was Wen Yan and the others' seemingly useless actions that made Xiao Wei feel completely at ease. He began to completely empty himself and wait for the foreseeable future with peace of mind.

When Chuqiu came to clean again, her attitude was much better: "The little girl has done so many good things, why is she so impulsive?"

Xiao Wei asked coldly: "Where did you get this information?"

Chu Qiu was a little embarrassed and said vaguely: "Many people outside know about it."

Xiao Wei sighed: It seems that it is no longer a secret that I am imprisoned here. My enemies must have found out. It is so damn dangerous.

I wanted to hint something to Chu Qiu, but gave up as soon as I opened my mouth.

What I can think of, Su Daqiang and other smart people can naturally think of as well. Just let it go and wish for the best.

After dinner that day, Su Daqiang came over with two large bags of fruits and snacks, saying that Xiaowei's friends had sent them. He was very concerned about Xiaowei's leg injury and asked, "Is the swelling on your leg gone down?"

Xiao Wei, who was sitting, picked up the wide warehouse tube without hesitation: "Look for yourself."

Looking at the obvious bruise on the fair calf, Su Daqiang reached out and touched it gently a few times, then lowered his head and blew a breath: "The swelling has gone down a little, but I have to take care of it slowly."

Xiao Wei had a wicked smile on his face: "The medicine I got is good. It will take at most half a year for me to be completely restored to my original state."

Su Daqiang asked casually, "Are you used to living here?"

Xiao Wei asked back: "If I'm not used to it, can I go out?"

"You can walk freely inside the high walls, but you have to be followed by the prison guards."

"Is this all you came here to talk to me about?"

Su Daqiang blushed: "What do you want to know?"

Xiao Wei smiled softly: "When you hugged me, your hands were not very honest."

"You are too smart and too mysterious. You are both likable and frightening. It may be because you have suffered a lot of injustice."

"It's just an illusion. Am I someone who would be willing to be wronged?"

"Of course not. Those who bullied you have been punished, it was just a little too much."

"I'm not a good person. Not only will I repay you for your wrongdoing, I will also repay you tenfold."

Su Daqiang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "In this respect, you can indeed be considered a bad guy. But you are also a bad guy who deserves to be cherished by many people."

Xiao Wei burst into laughter: "Then you should cherish me. Maybe our meeting was what you asked for in your previous life."
