Dawn After Darkness of Doom

This behavior of the little boy made the others stop, and the soldier they knew didn't let them go away immediately, and gave them a time to talk.

Qi Min squatted down, wiped away the tears from the child's face, touched his head to comfort him, "Stop crying, tell brother what happened, okay?"

"They said that Dad stole the vegetables, but Dad didn't, brother..." After all, he was still a child, and when he encountered such a thing, he was flustered, crying and sobbing, and he couldn't explain the specific situation.

Mo Yin met Qi Min's eyes and said to the soldier, "Can we ask what happened? This father and son are our friends."

"Comrade, it's getting late now, let's hurry up and settle the matter quickly." A middle-aged man rushed to speak in front of the soldier. dissatisfied.

Qi Min knew this man. When he went to find the father and son last time, the people in the same plantation shed seemed to have always been inexplicably disliked by the father and son.

The soldier glanced at him sideways, and the other party shut his mouth and didn't speak any more, but they really couldn't delay here forever, so they said, "Why don't we go together and talk to you in detail on the way."

They nodded and followed to the side of the team. The man whose shoulders were held by two soldiers raised his head and smiled gratefully at him, but there was tiredness in his eyes, which made people feel sad.

The man originally took his son off work today as usual, but when he was undergoing a routine inspection at the door, he found the vegetables that were pressed at the bottom from the cloth bag he was carrying.

Although the amount was not much, it did violate the regulations of the safety zone. At the same time, the middle-aged man in the same plantation shed also reported that he saw him stealing vegetables with his own eyes.

He also complained that the man's son often ran around in the planting area and affected everyone's work. He just endured seeing them pitiful, but he didn't expect to do something sneaky this time.

Qi Min doesn't believe that men steal things, but whether he believes it or not, the facts are here. If there is no way to prove his innocence, then the father and son will face being kicked out of the safe zone.

He turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged man walking behind. The other party was full of complacency. Thinking back to the attitude of this man in the shed last time, he had some thoughts in his heart.

The boy was very frightened. He held Qi Min's hand tightly, and kept turning his head to look at his imprisoned father. They didn't know anyone here, and the only one who could help them was his brother.

When they arrived at the interrogation office, the person in charge of the plantation area also rushed over. The other party was a man about 50 years old. His hair was already mottled, and his face was very gentle.

The little boy also said before that this person took good care of them and would give him some snacks. The marinated egg he gave Qi Min last time was given to him by the other party. He is a very good person in his heart.

The person in charge was also very surprised when he received the news. In the past two days in the planting area, the man has been honest and never caused trouble. How could he suddenly steal the vegetables in the shed? "Is there some misunderstanding here?"

"We did find vegetables from his bag, and the gentleman said he saw him secretly put it in." Facing his question, the soldier gave an explanation.

The person in charge turned his head to look at what he said, and frowned when he saw the middle-aged man. This man usually likes to steal, rape and play tricks at work, but he didn't care about it because the problem was not serious. He mentioned asking his cousin to work, but as far as he knew, the other party's cousin was not a good guy, so he declined the request.

"Did you really see him stealing it with your own eyes?" It's not that the person in charge didn't believe him, but mainly because after the man came to work, this person often targeted him, presumably thinking that he took the position that should have been given to his cousin.

"Of course, how can you talk nonsense about this? Alas, a person who is usually a good person probably wants his son to eat some good supplements, so he must have been fascinated for a while." The middle-aged man showed a regretful expression on his face, His eyes rolled around, not knowing what he was thinking.

Qi Min kept staring at him, and said directly after he finished speaking: "Where did you see him steal it? Since you saw it, why didn't you stop it then? You are in the same shed, doesn't he know how to guard against you?"

His series of questions made the man stunned, and it took him a while to recover, "Of course I saw it in the shed. You should know if you have been there. Our shed is very big. He was on the other side at the time. I can’t see clearly, I must think I won’t pay attention, so I boldly pulled seven or eight green vegetables, all of which are in the same shed, I have the nerve to stop it.”

After hearing what he said, Qi Min looked at the soldier on the side, and asked unhurriedly, "Did you notice how many vegetables were put in it when you checked?"

"At that time, we just opened it and flipped through it a few times, but we didn't pay attention to the specific number." Although he didn't understand the meaning of his question, the soldier answered him after thinking about it.

"Even they don't know, but you are counting very carefully when you are far away and can't see clearly." Qi Min turned his eyes back to the middle-aged man, and his cold expression showed that he was extraordinarily calm.

"I, I'm..." Realizing that he said something wrong, the middle-aged man was a little flustered, but then he frowned and straightened his back, "I said you kid, don't interrogate vegetable thieves, It's time to interrogate me, and with so many soldiers here, is it your turn to speak?!"

"We're just asking casually, there's no intention of interrogation, why are you panicking?" Mo Yin took a step forward, blocking the other's hand that was about to point to Qi Min's face, the tall figure made the man back involuntarily Back off.

Others looked at him with suspicion. The answers to the few questions just now were indeed a little too detailed.

Regardless of his side for the time being, the man was taken to the interrogation chair and sat down, because it was not a heinous act, and there was no such thing as handcuffs in a secret room, and everyone could watch from the side, just to keep quiet.

"Are you admitting to your stealing?" The interrogator put the pen and paper in front of him, without any emotion in his tone. This kind of thing is just a job for him.

Of course, it is impossible for a man to admit that he doesn't care, but he still has a son. Once they are driven out of the safe zone, the end may be a dead end. "I don't have any, and I don't know why there are those in the bag."

"I think you shouldn't be so stubborn, just admit it honestly, maybe people can give you a lenient treatment." The middle-aged man seemed to give him advice with good intentions, but he couldn't stop the schadenfreude on his face.

"During the interrogation, please keep quiet." The interrogator looked up blankly, and tapped the pen on the table lightly to stop him from speaking without authorization.

He nodded with a flattering smile, and shut his mouth obediently. Anyway, the matter is now a foregone conclusion, so he doesn't need to be too anxious. My cousin should thank him well this time.

The interrogation was still going on, but Qi Min never left his gaze on him. It was almost certain that this matter had something to do with him. After thinking for a while, he patted the little boy who was holding him, and put him first. Push to the side of the person next to you.

Suddenly being entrusted with a little guy by his side, Mo Yin froze for a moment, the boy also raised his face, looked at him with a pair of dark eyes, with a little timidity, he raised his hand and rubbed the kid's hair.

"Can I have a few words with you?" Qi Min leaned over to the person in charge of the planting area. The other party seemed not expecting him to talk to him, so he paused for a few seconds before nodding.

With the other party's consent, he moved closer, covered his lips with his left hand and whispered something in his ear, because the two of them were in a corner, and except for Mo Yin, no one else paid much attention.

After hearing what he said, the person in charge looked at him in surprise, and had to say that this was indeed a simple and effective method. After thinking about it, he nodded and agreed to cater, and he could find an opportunity to speak later.

"If you have no way to prove your innocence, then you will be dealt with in accordance with the regulations of the safe zone." There are also many people who are sent here for theft every month. The interrogators are used to it. Although the rules are strict, there are still many Some crimes with a fluke mentality.

The man was a little anxious, but he really couldn't explain it. He really didn't know how those dishes appeared in his place. He didn't keep the cloth bag by his side all the time. After all, he had to work. If someone wanted to frame him, It's actually very easy.

Turning his head to look at his son who was staring at him, the man's eyes were a little red, if something happened to him, how could the child be okay, they just want to live a down-to-earth life, why is it so difficult?

"Excuse me, can I interrupt for a moment?"

When the atmosphere over there was momentarily deadlocked, the person in charge raised his hand as a signal, and the interrogator glanced at him, and nodded to let him speak for the sake of being knowledgeable.

The person in charge smiled to express his gratitude, and said, "I just suddenly remembered that we have newly installed monitoring in the No. [-] shed. Whether it is the food he took or not should be recorded."

The decadent man regained his energy all of a sudden, he raised his head suddenly, his eyes lit up, he didn't expect such a surprise, "Really? Does that prove my innocence?"

"Impossible! Didn't you say before that due to limited conditions, surveillance cameras cannot be installed in the shed? I didn't notice there was one either." Compared to his joy, the middle-aged man seemed much more flustered.

His reaction also made the person in charge have a judgment in his heart. He sneered, "That's why we installed it in a certain shed to test the effect. Shed No. [-] happened to be in it. Hole camera, of course you won't notice."

Cold sweat broke out on the middle-aged man's head in an instant, his eyes flicked around, panic was written on his face, and the reaction was so violent that others looked sideways.

"Surveillance footage should be used as evidence, right? If it is confirmed that he stole it, he can no longer complain when he accepts the punishment, but if someone else deliberately framed... such a bad person, I believe the safe zone will not be easy Let it go." Seeing that he was afraid, the person in charge continued to put psychological pressure on him verbally.

The interrogator also seemed to have begun to change the object of attention, with a scrutinizing gaze on the person with a bad face, and he looked up and down several times, "This is the most powerful evidence. When it is found out in the surveillance, the matter can be It's even more serious."

The middle-aged man's legs gave way, and he almost fell to the ground. He was grabbed by the person in charge who walked up to him at some point. He helped him stand upright, and patted him on the shoulder kindly. She smiled warmly, "What's wrong with you? Don't be afraid, this matter has nothing to do with you. Would you like to rest next to me?"
