Meng Shuhai smiled bitterly when he heard that. He thought to himself, Singing? I want to, but Li Rui won't let me. He snorted and said, "Meimei, let's talk about singing in another two days. The incident of you slashing someone last time is troublesome. That Deputy County Magistrate Li is relentless. He wants to arrest you. I'm in a difficult situation now."
"What? It can't be? Brother Meng, you can't really bear to hand me over, right? "
Meng Shuhai said, "Silly girl, of course not. How can I bear to? But you have to show your sincerity. Let me teach you. There are two steps. First, send someone to find Cui Guangli's family. Think of a way to make them forgive you for what you did and sign a settlement agreement with you. Second, go to the City Pass police station and say that you have already obtained the forgiveness of the victim's family. Both sides have reached an agreement. This matter will be settled privately and will not be brought to court. This way, you can be safe and sound. "
"Oh, so that's how it is …"
Meng Shuhai sighed and said, "Meimei, I can't bear for you to appear in public and run around for this case, but things have developed to this point. There's really no other way. You have to understand me."
"I know, I understand. I know that Brother Meng, you have done your best to protect me. It's all that disgusting Li's fault for not letting go. Say, he really has nothing better to do. Why does he have to care about this matter? If he has the time, wouldn't it be better to play cards and drink? "
Meng Shuhai laughed out loud and said disdainfully, "Who says so? I think he's pretending to uphold justice. In fact, he wants to gain a reputation from the people and let the people of Shuanghe know that Li Rui is a good official who makes decisions for the people. This way, his reputation will increase. Won't it be easier for him to be promoted in the future?"
"Did I offend him? Otherwise, why would he not let go of me? I don't understand. I don't understand. Why would a deputy county magistrate like him get involved in such a trivial matter? "
Meng Shuhai thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure if you offended him, but on the day of the incident, he was at the scene. This is what he said just now. Did you have a conflict with him?"
"He was at the scene? I didn't notice. Which one was him? Except for the conflict with Cui Guangli's family, I didn't … no … there was one person, a man. He was tall and strong, and he looked pretty good. He seemed to have a background. He was helping Cui Guangli's family from the beginning … "
Meng Shuhai exclaimed, "Oh, that's the man you're talking about. He's Li Rui, the new deputy head of the county government!"
"F * ck, so he's the deputy county head. He never revealed his identity, so I thought he was just an ordinary passerby."
Meng Shuhai smiled bitterly and said, "It's meaningless to talk about this now. Hurry up and do as I say. I will guarantee your safety."
"Yes, yes, I got it, Brother Meng. I'll do as you say. When I'm done with this, I'll have to thank you. I heard that the Fairy Cave scenic spot has a resort surrounded by water. The scenery is pretty good, and it has all kinds of entertainment facilities. Why don't we go there for a holiday this weekend? We can play with him for two days, hehe! "
Meng Shuhai was surprised and happy when he heard this. This charming little minx was really sensible. He was just thinking about how to make her feel that she owed him a big favor in this case, and she took the initiative to offer a repayment plan. Moreover, from what she said, it was very likely that he would be the one to take part in this vacation. Oh, if he could have a taste of this beautiful little minx, it would be worth it even if he gave her ten similar cases. He pretended to be polite and said, "Hey, we're all family. Don't be so polite. We'll talk about the vacation on the weekend. Hehe, let's settle this trouble for him first!"
After this phone call, Meng Shuhai called Hu Zhixin and told him that Li Rui was holding onto the case of Shang Meimei. Finally, he said, "Now that Secretary Fang of the county party committee knows about this, even if I don't give face to Li Rui, I still have to give face to Secretary Fang. After all, when I was promoted to the position of bureau chief, Secretary Fang also helped. How about this, you let the four little brothers who killed people come out and turn themselves in at the police station in the city as a formality. When this matter is settled, I'll get someone to release them without leaving a criminal record, okay? "
Hu Zhixin was very surprised and said, "Shuhai, even you can't handle that Li guy? He's just a deputy county head, not even a member of the standing committee. You're a member of the county party committee, the secretary of the county party committee, and the director of the police bureau. You can't handle him? I have no problem handing them over, but if I really hand them over, outsiders will say that 'Hu Zhixin can't even protect his subordinates'. Who will work for me in the future? "
Meng Shuhai said, "Of course I can handle that Li guy, but who knew that he has a good relationship with Secretary Fang. Now that Secretary Fang is involved, I have to give face to Secretary Fang, right?"
Hu Zhixin hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll hand them over. What about Meimei? Will she be okay?"
Meng Shuhai said, "She'll be fine. I've already told her. Don't worry."
Hu Zhixin nodded, and then said angrily, "Is this Li guy stupid or what? Tell me, he's just a deputy county head. Why would he care about this? What does this have to do with him? He even lied to you about this, saying that the woman who was chopped up was his cousin. Is he crazy? Ah … right, do you think it's possible that the woman who was chopped up was his mistress? Was he fighting for Qing-er's sake? If that's the case, it's understandable. "
Meng Shuhai was also stunned. He thought for a moment and said, "That's a possibility. I wouldn't have thought of it if you didn't mention it … Tsk, is that woman beautiful? I've never seen her before."
Hu Zhixin said, "I don't know either. Should I get someone to check their relationship?"
Meng Shuhai said, "You can check, but be careful. Do it secretly and don't let him find out. Otherwise, you might have to hand it over to him."
Hu Zhixin sneered and said, "How is that possible? Even if he finds out, there are countless people who will take the blame for me. Do you think I have so many people under me for nothing? "
Meng Shuhai nodded and didn't say anything else. He hung up the phone and ordered Xu Guang, who was driving, "Send me back to the station and you can get off work."
Xu Guang agreed and recalled the two words he had said to Shang Meimei and Hu Zhixin. His heart turned cold. At the same time, Li Rui's image in his mind became bigger and bigger. A vague idea slowly appeared in his mind, becoming clearer and clearer …
At around nine o 'clock at night, a group of fierce-looking young men wearing black T-shirts and holding sticks aggressively barged into a ward on the east side of the second floor of the county hospital building. This ward was the ward where Cui Guangli's family was hospitalized. It had been four days since she was chopped up. Cui Guangli's injuries had recovered by thirty to forty percent. However, her husband, brother-in-law, and mother-in-law's injuries had not fully recovered and still needed to rest in the hospital bed. Cui Guangli stayed in the ward with her relatives to take care of the three of them. As for her father-in-law, his injuries were almost fully recovered and he had already returned home to take care of his child. After all, it wasn't appropriate for the child to stay in their relatives' house.
The family of four was preparing to turn off the lights and go to bed. Cui Guangli was sitting on the rented bamboo bed and was about to lie down when the door was suddenly knocked open. The door hit the wall and made a loud noise. The four people were shocked and looked at the door. Before they could react, the group of fierce-looking young men barged into the room. Some waved the steel pipes in their hands, some kicked the door, and some cursed,
"Which bastard wants to catch our Sister Shang?"
"He must be tired of living!"
"You're not honest, right? You're not convinced, right? If you're not convinced, then come out and let me see! "
The leader of the group of young men was the fiercest. He was twenty-five or twenty-six years old and had a bald head. There was a scar on his forehead and a pair of fierce leopard eyes. He looked fierce. He walked to the middle of the ward and asked fiercely, "Who is Cui Guangli?"
When Cui Guangli saw the group of people's fierce appearance, she didn't dare to make a sound. She was so scared that she almost peed in her pants. She just sat on the bed and shivered.
Seeing that no one answered, the young man with the scar scanned the four people one by one. Finally, his gaze locked onto Cui Guangli's face. He walked over and grabbed her hair with his left hand and slapped her twice with his right hand. Cui Guangli was slapped so hard that she rolled from the bamboo bed to the ground. There was blood at the corner of her mouth and a few red and swollen fingerprints appeared on her face.
"I'm f * cking asking who is Cui Guangli. Why didn't you make a sound? Are you f * cking deaf or do you not understand human language? Do you think that I can't find you if you don't make a sound, you idiot! "
Cui Guangli was shocked and scared. She was angry and helpless. She cried out instantly and said, "Who … who are you people?"
The young man with the scar curled his lips and scolded with infinite disdain, "You're f * cking gutsy. You think you can do whatever you want just because you got slashed? You want to catch our Sister Shang and put her in jail? Do you believe that I won't beat you half to death right now? "
As soon as he said this, the young men behind him were all fired up. Each one of them found a target — Cui Guangli's husband, her brother-in-law, or her mother-in-law. Some of them threatened, some of them slapped, and some of them pretended to wave their sticks. In short, they were trying their best to intimidate the poor family of four.
Cui Guangli's family were ordinary people. They had never seen such a scene in their lives. The four of them were so scared that their faces turned green. They lowered their eyes and didn't dare to make a sound. Cui Guangli fell to the ground and cried. A sad and helpless atmosphere lingered in the ward.
"Bring it over!"
The young man with the scar suddenly found an uncut watermelon on the bedside table. He guessed that it was a gift from Cui Guangli's friends and relatives when they came to visit. He pointed at the watermelon and ordered one of his lackeys. The lackey didn't know what was going on, but he still took the watermelon and handed it to him.
