Chapter 435 Who placed the sickle?

Hearing Su Jianjun's words, everyone seemed to be deep in thought.

Liu Yongjun and Sun Dahua's eyes lit up as well.

Sun Dahua stood up from the ground and said anxiously to Su Jianjun.

"Captain, I'll call Xiaobao over here right away!"

After saying that, Sun Dahua rushed outside.

Liu Yongjun also went out with Sun Dahua.

After the two left, Wang Mazi spoke.

“Uncle Jianjun, if it really was Liu Xiaobao who did it, we might as well let him run away before Jiang Zhiqing’s family comes.”

Zhou Yongsheng punched Wang Mazi and said irritably.

"Run, run, run! Where do you think Liu Xiaobao can run to! These days you need a letter of introduction to go anywhere. Where do you think Liu Xiaobao can run to?"

Wang Mazi grinned and snorted coldly at Zhou Yongsheng.

"Aren't we close to Russia? Why don't we just send Xiaobao there?"

Hongqi Village is indeed quite close to Russia. In particular, just across the river from the hill behind the village, you can reach another country.

However, no sooner had Wang Mazi uttered those words than Su Jianjun kicked him without anyone else even noticing.

Su Jianjun is not well-educated and doesn't understand political trends, but his family has four college graduates.

Especially in recent years, with all the turmoil, Su Nuannuan often tells her family about this, urging them to be careful.

Therefore, Su Jianjun was particularly perceptive about this.

He glared at Wang Mazi and said angrily.

"You idiot, don't say things like that again! Be careful you don't get arrested and taken to the Northwest!"

After speaking, Su Jianjun glanced at the group of people sitting in the room and said in a stern voice.

"Let's pretend we didn't hear what Ma Zi said today. If anyone spreads it around, I'll just have to follow the village rules."

Although we live in a society governed by the rule of law, villages still have their own rules. For better management, everyone tacitly accepts the existence of these rules.

This is also to better protect the interests of the majority of villagers.

Of course, as a manager, Su Jianjun knew that all of this was done within the bounds of the law.

No one in the village dared to disobey Su Jianjun. Hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement.

Zhou Yongsheng punched Wang Mazi again, and said in a muffled voice.

"You pockmarked guy, watch your mouth from now on!"

Wang Mazi realized he had said the wrong thing, covered his mouth, and nodded hurriedly.

After waiting for a while, Liu Yongjun and Sun Dahua each grabbed one of Liu Xiaobao's arms and dragged him in.

The two threw Liu Xiaobao to the ground and said to Su Jianjun.

"Captain, interrogate this kid carefully. If he doesn't tell the truth, don't blame us for being impolite!"

After Liu Yongjun finished speaking, he pulled out a belt and stared intently at Liu Xiaobao on the ground. Sun Dahua was also holding a wooden stick.

Seeing the two men behaving like bandits, Su Jianjun rubbed his aching temples.

Forget it, let's find out the details first before talking about anything else.

Su Jianjun looked at Liu Xiaobao, who reeked of alcohol, and asked.

"Xiao Bao, tell the truth, did you put the sickle on the ground where Jiang Zhiqing and Dong Zhiqing were passing by, deliberately causing Jiang Zhiqing to get hurt?"

When Liu Xiaobao was brought over by his parents, he had sobered up considerably.

Now, seeing the village uncles and elders sitting in a room, staring at him with eyes that seemed to want to devour him, Liu Xiaobao was so frightened that his legs trembled.

He swallowed hard and stammered.

"No...it's not...it's me."

Liu Yongjun frowned, grabbed Liu Xiaobao and lashed him with a leather whip, shouting angrily.

"Speak properly! Was it really you?"

Seeing this, Sun Dahua also hit Liu Xiaobao with a wooden stick and echoed her sentiment.

"Be honest, tell the truth!" Liu Xiaobao, who had been hit, trembled and said in a tearful voice.

"not me."

The beaten Liu Xiaobao was completely different from the arrogant and domineering man he had been two years ago. Seeing his pitiful state, Wang Mazi was immediately amused.

Su Jianjun frowned, looked at the scene before him, and closed his eyes.

Thinking about the past lives of the three Liu sisters, Su Jianjun ultimately said nothing.

He waved his hand, signaling Liu Yongjun and Sun Dahua to put down their tools, and asked again.

"You didn't put the sickle there?"

Liu Xiaobao wiped the snot and tears from his face, nodded, and said, feeling wronged.

"It really wasn't me. I've never known where my family's sickle was kept since I was a child."

Liu Xiaobao was pampered growing up and never lifted a finger to do any housework. It's no exaggeration that he didn't know where the sickle was kept.

Liu Yongjun and Sun Dahua were somewhat embarrassed.

Su Jianjun looked into Liu Xiaobao's eyes and said earnestly.

Did you know Jiang Zhiqing and Dong Zhiqing before?

Liu Xiaobao shook his head and said in a somewhat mournful tone.

"I'm a useless person now, why would I want to know any female educated youth? Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?"

Upon hearing Liu Xiaobao's words, everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to his lower body.

As Liu Xiaobao blushed and was about to stand up and start cursing, everyone quickly looked away.

Su Jianjun coughed awkwardly and continued to ask.

"Do you know Ouyang, the educated youth?"

Liu Xiaobao's eyes became even more resentful.

“Uncle Jianjun, I don’t know him. I don’t even know who Ouyang Zhiqing is.”

Looking into Liu Xiaobao's eyes, Su Jianjun couldn't detect any sign of lying.

Having lived together for over a decade, Su Jianjun knew Liu Xiaobao's character and abilities quite well.

He was certain that the sickle was not placed there by Liu Xiaobao.

Who deliberately placed the sickle there?

This has become an unsolvable puzzle.

Su Jianjun felt that things were getting complicated.

The village officials were also baffled. All they knew was that the sickle belonged to the Liu family. However, they couldn't find out who had put it there.

Having no other choice, Su Jianjun could only address the crowd.

"That's enough for today. Everyone be careful these next few days. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow to ask about Jiang and Dong. If we can't find them, we'll have to hand this over to the police."

Everyone was an open and honest person, and no one refuted the captain's words.

There's someone like this hiding in the village, and no one can sleep soundly.

When Su Jianjun said he would report it to the police, no one objected.

Only Liu Yongjun and Sun Dahua were somewhat conflicted.

Liu Yongjun stepped forward and asked.

“Captain, although the sickle belongs to my family, you know that my family has no grudge against Jiang Zhiqing and would never do such a thing.”

Liu Yongjun and Sun Dahua's only worry now is that if they can't catch the culprit, they'll be blamed on their family.

Su Jianjun looked at the two of them reassuringly and said.

"Don't worry, you've been implicated too. I'll talk to Jiang Zhiqing's family properly."

After everyone left, Su Jianjun went to the educated youth settlement again.

He told everyone about it and warned them to be careful these next few days.

Although Su Jianjun disliked the educated youth, the person who harmed Jiang Zhiqing had not yet been found. To prevent any further trouble, Su Jianjun decided to inform everyone in advance.
