Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies-Chapter 204 - 195 Second Update
Chapter 204: Chapter 195 Second Update
Three days quietly passed by.
The murder case at the summit had lost its urgency among the villagers—after all, everyone was too busy with their work to discuss it daily.
But just when the village was about to regain its calm,
a police car pulled up directly in front of Old Man Qin’s house.
Three policemen stepped out from the vehicle.
When they knocked on the door, it was Qin Fugui who answered it.
Upon seeing the three policemen at the door, his legs went weak.
He became all tongue-tied.
"Comrade... what’s, what’s the matter?"
The leader of the policemen was surnamed Lu—he was in charge of this case—and he directly said, "We’re here to find Qin Fulin; is he at home?"
Qin Fugui, upon hearing that they weren’t there for him, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"He’s, he’s here."
And then he stepped aside to give them way.
But why were these officers looking for Qin Fulin? Could it be he had gotten into trouble?
The thought made his eyes widen.
He knew that this dog, Qin Fulin, always liked to act... he was never a good thing at heart.
The three policemen walked into the courtyard.
Since Old Man Qin’s family was in the middle of lunch, everyone was there.
The sight of the three policemen made them drop their chopsticks in shock.
Old Man Qin and the others came out immediately.
Before Old Man Qin could even ask,
the leading officer spoke, "Who is Qin Fulin?"
With those words, every eye in the family turned to land upon Qin Fulin.
And Qin Fugui shouted out quickly, "Him, he is Qin Fulin."
Qin Fulin’s face turned white in an instant.
Captain Lu looked over, "You are Qin Fulin?"
Qin Fulin, his mind a complete blank, nodded stiffly.
"...Yes... I am Qin Fulin."
"We’ve found that you’re related to the murder case on the mountain in Qin Family Village. Please come with us."
The color drained from Qin Fulin’s face, leaving it deathly pale, lips devoid of any life.
Realizing what was happening, Old Man Qin hurried forward, "Comrade, you must be mistaken. My son is incredibly honest, how could he possibly be related to that murder case? You must have it wrong..."
The implication that any member of his family was involved in a murder case would ruin their reputation.
He clearly never realized that his family never had any reputation to begin with.
Although Old Lady Wang didn’t much care for her eldest son, the thought of him being connected to a murder case panicked her.
"Comrade, there must be a mistake, my son has always been proper, always a worker in town! How could he possibly be involved in a murder case while living his life so well? Someone must be slandering him..."
"Right, it must be Qin Ye and his ilk who can’t stand to see us doing well, that’s why they’re framing my son..."
The thought solidified in her mind.
It had to be those troublemakers framing her son.
Qin Ye, that bastard, was seeking revenge against their whole family.
"We only come with solid evidence in hand, so don’t obstruct us here," Captain Lu said to Qin Fulin, "Come with us now."
Old Lady Wang instantly stood in front of Qin Fulin, "He can’t go. You cannot take my son without showing evidence. Bring out your evidence or you won’t take him away."
If her son really was involved in the murder case, their family would never live it down. And what about the job in town?
Captain Lu, seeing her make a scene, became stern.
"If you obstruct us, we’ll take you in as well."
With that, Old Lady Wang flinched away, fearing arrest.
At her age, if she was taken into custody, her old bones couldn’t take the ordeal.
Captain Lu directed his two subordinates, "Cuff Qin Fulin and take him away."
The two policemen immediately went to Qin Fulin and cuffed him.
As they escorted Qin Fulin out, the rest of the Qin family didn’t dare to intervene.
But Qin Fulin’s wife began to wail loudly...
Along with Qin Fulin’s two sons and a daughter, who also burst into tears.
Normally, lunchtime was quiet, but the commotion at the Qin’s drew all the neighbors to gawk, eyes wide with shock upon seeing the police escort Qin Fulin into the car.
My God, what on earth was happening?
After the police car drove away, the Qin family’s crying resounded under the sky...
The news was huge, and it took less than ten minutes for the entire village to hear about it.
Some couldn’t believe it; after all, in everyone’s eyes... of Old Man Qin’s sons, it was Qin Fulin who seemed the most decent, not a bad person.
Some even wondered if it was Qin Fugui who had committed the crime and the Qin Family had pinned his wrongdoing onto Qin Fulin?
The news reached Qin Ye as well.
But he had no reaction.
Rong Yan was not surprised.
Some people seem good, but that isn’t always the case.
Madam Rong had met Qin Fulin once and found it hard to believe as well.
"Does this mean he’s involved with the murder on the mountain? Could he be the killer? My goodness, appearances are truly deceiving. To think such an honest person could be so vile."
Taken away in handcuffs... surely the police had substantial evidence; they wouldn’t have done so otherwise.
Being taken in for questioning was wholly different from being detained.
Hearing her mother’s words, Rong Yan just said, "Some people are skilled at disguising themselves, this is one of those types. And if you look closely, you’ll see his eyes are quite dark, not a sign of a good man."
Madam Rong: ...
Terrifying.
"A silent dog bites the hardest."
Rong Yan couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of her mouth hearing this allegory.
Her mother did have a way with words.
Just then, Qin Ye suddenly said, "I’m heading to town this afternoon."
Rong Yan turned to ask, "Are you going to ask about this case?"
Qin nodded, "Yes, I want to stop by the police station and find out what’s really going on. I have a feeling this case might somehow be related to me, so I want to get the facts straight."
"Okay then," Rong Yan didn’t say much.
Qin Ye went inside for a moment, grabbed a few items, and then rode off on his bicycle.
Although Madam Rong didn’t ask, she was still puzzled, "Xiao Qin, why go?"
After all, their families were now estranged, so what was there to ask?
"Just leave it be, he knows what he’s doing," Rong Yan said simply.
