Chapter 125 Ma Taohua Dies
Chapter 125 Ma Taohua Dies
When Zhang Yu arrived at the police station with the public security comrades, he saw his two good brothers, Director Han and Director Lu, also staying at the police station.
Just as he was about to go up and greet the two of them, he saw an elderly couple and a scoundrelly young man rushing over.
They went up and beat Zhang Yu, and the old woman even tried to grab Zhang Yu's face.
Zhang Yu saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly hid behind the police officer and asked, "Public Security Officer, what's going on? Why are these three people still attacking me in the police station?"
The police officers of the police station quickly stepped in to stop the three people and warned them: "What are you doing? Be honest. We police will handle any problems. If you do anything again, we will charge you with intentional injury."
As a result, after saying this, the old woman sat on the ground and burst into tears: "Oh my God, is there any justice in this world? My daughter was killed by these people."
To be honest, Zhang Yu didn't know the old couple and the scoundrel young man at all.
Hearing the old lady say this, Zhang Yu hurriedly asked: "Comrade Public Security, I don't know these three people at all. What's going on? What harm is there?"
The public security comrades looked at Zhang Yu with a puzzled look on his face and felt that the possibility of him being the murderer was very small.
Actually, this matter is not complicated. Around ten o'clock last night, a woman died near the supply and marketing cooperative.
Just this morning, after visiting and investigating, they learned that the deceased was Ma Taohua, so they quickly notified Ma Taohua's family to come and identify the body.
At first, Ma Taohua’s parents and younger brother Ma Baozhu didn’t want to come to the police station.
However, they heard that Ma Taohua was murdered, and if the murderer was found, they would receive a certain amount of compensation, so they hurried over.
However, they did not go to claim Ma Taohua's body, but stayed there at the police station.
Whenever they see someone related to this case, they will make a fuss. What if they get caught? That would be a lot of money.
This time, the public security comrades asked Zhang Yu to come, mainly because he had a good relationship with Director Lu, and his sister-in-law is now Director Lu's wife.
Not only that, they directly reported Director Lu, swearing that it was Director Lu who killed Ma Taohua.
The comrades at the police station certainly would not believe their one-sided story, but after investigation, they found that Director Lu was indeed not at home during that time.
In addition, they learned through their visits that Director Lu and Ma Taohua had a very unpleasant quarrel, and Director Lu hated Ma Taohua to the core.
So, the public security comrades felt that Director Lu was a major suspect in the crime, so they summoned Director Lu.
After a surprise interrogation, Director Lu confessed that he was with Director Han and Zhang Yu last night and he had not seen Ma Taohua.
The public security comrades certainly would not believe his one-sided statement, and they sent someone to summon Director Han and Zhang Yu.
This is because Director Han arrived at the office early today, so he was already at the police station. And Zhang Yu arrived at the office on time this morning, so he came here at this time.
So, the public security comrades pushed Ma Taohua's parents and brother aside, and then questioned Director Han and Zhang Yu separately.
The three of them went to a small trade fair together. In fact, transactions among several people were not strictly managed at that time, so they all confessed truthfully that they had all been there yesterday and provided witnesses.
After investigation by the public security comrades, it was confirmed that what they said was true, so Director Lu was no longer a suspect.
However, the public security comrades still criticized and educated them for their private transactions, told them not to do it again, and then let them go.
The three of them quickly nodded in agreement and returned to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Seeing the three people about to leave, Ma Taohua's parents and brother hurried over to stop them.
Ma Taohua's mother even sat at the door of the police station and cried, "You officials are protecting each other. My daughter died tragically. You have to take her life."
Ma Taohua's father also tried to stop them, saying viciously: "You can't leave. My daughter is dead. You have to pay compensation. Pay compensation."
Only Ma Taohua's lazy brother unexpectedly did not step forward to stop them this time.
He followed his father with an unnatural look on his face, which Zhang Yu sensed immediately.
Zhang Yu observed him carefully again, and finally caught the evasiveness in his eyes, which made Zhang Yu fall into thought.
However, just as Zhang Yu was thinking about this problem, the police comrades from the police station ran out and took the three people to the police station.
However, considering their pain of losing their daughter and sister, they were only criticized and educated, told that Director Lu was not the murderer, and asked them to stop making trouble unreasonably.
After Zhang Yu and the other two returned to the supply and marketing cooperative, they all went to see Director Han.
When passing by the fabric counter, Director Lu greeted Sister Li and thanked her for recommending two colors to him yesterday.
But Sister Li looked a little unhappy. Director Lu called her several times before she heard him. She was not as talkative as usual. She just said "thank you" and went back to her work.
Because he was thinking about what happened today, Director Lu didn't pay too much attention to her abnormality.
However, Director Han looked at Sister Li meaningfully.
After the three of them sat down in Director Han's office, Zhang Yu asked, "Brother Lu, Brother Han, what's going on? Do you know the details?"
Director Han replied, "I don't know much more than you do. You have to ask Director Lu what's going on."
Director Lu does know a little more than Zhang Yu and the others. Isn’t it because he was the one who reported it?
So, he sighed and said, "My ex-wife Ma Taohua was strangled to death with a rope near the supply and marketing cooperative around 10 o'clock last night. I don't know who had such a big grudge against her."
Zhang Yu asked again: "Then why did they lock on you?"
When talking about this, Director Lu felt unlucky. He said, "It was Ma Taohua's parents who reported me."
"In your situation, you are the victim. How can the police be trusted?"
Director Lu sighed again and said, "You may not believe this, but Ma Taohua is quite popular in Luojia Village."
Director Han said disdainfully: "She? Is she popular?"
Director Lu said: "Don't disbelieve me, because at that time Lao Luo was still alive, and Lao Luo would send his salary back to Ma Taohua every month. She was not short of money, and she often bought things and was generous, so she was quite popular in that area.
This is not to mention the conflict, that is, she and I have a conflict, I am dissatisfied with her, and everyone knows it, so the public security comrades think I am the most suspicious. "
Director Han still had a look of disdain on his face, and said, "Anyway, I don't see how Ma Taohua is so popular. If she had money to spend, she wouldn't make a fuss. But you gave her a lot of money, and she made a lot of fuss. Think about it, isn't this reasonable?"
Ignoring Director Han's words, Director Lu was content with having a wife at the moment. He said, "Maybe I'm not popular. Oh, let's not talk about it. Ma Taohua is dead. Let's be polite. I'm going back first."
The next day, as soon as Zhang Yu entered the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, he was stopped by Director Han and taken to his office. Director Han then told him mysteriously, "Brother Zhang, be careful when you go out next time. Another person died last night."
