After my stepmother was shot, I took my brothers to the countryside

Chapter 275 Aunt Zhang Testifies

As the three Zhou brothers told the story one by one, the surrounding villagers began to whisper and talk, and cast contemptuous glances at the Zhou family's behavior.

Especially when they looked at Liu Juan, their eyes were full of disdain and contempt.

When it was Liu Juan's turn to speak, she still insisted on her old words, saying that if Shen Nian had not killed the wild boar first, her brother-in-law would not have gone up the mountain, and if he had not gone up the mountain, he would not have been knocked off the cliff by the wild boar.

During the entire description of the Zhou family, Qin Yichen listened very carefully, and his frown never relaxed for a moment.

"Are you all done?" Qin Yichen finally spoke. "Since you've finished, come over and press your fingerprints. After you've done that, let's hear what the reporter has to say."

When they heard that they had to press fingerprints, the Zhou brothers looked at each other. Although they were a little nervous, they did not dare to delay for a moment and hurried forward to press their fingerprints one by one.

When it was Liu Juan's turn to press her fingerprints, Qin Yichen glanced at her arms hanging on both sides and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

After everyone had pressed their fingerprints, Qin Yichen looked up at Shen Nian and said, "Comrade, it's your turn now. Tell us everything you know in detail without leaving anything out."

Shen Nian nodded and calmly began to narrate the whole story, starting with her and the team leader at the chicken farm, Li Youjia coming to see the team leader, and ending with Liu Juan and the Zhou family coming to her to cause trouble.

As soon as Shen Nian finished speaking, the crowd started discussing again:

"Hey, I heard what Shen Zhiqing said. Shen Zhiqing didn't even know that the Zhou family kid went up the mountain with Shi Zhiqing. How can you blame Shen Zhiqing for this? And you're even forcing him to pay for the medical expenses."

"I think this Liu Juan is a real troublemaker! Didn't you hear that she's the one who caused all the trouble for the Zhou brothers?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, these Zhou brothers are outrageous. Liu Juan asked them to come, and they actually came?"

"That's right! Shen Zhiqing is truly wronged. He can be blamed for such a big crime even though he's just sitting at home!"

After listening to the descriptions of both parties and the discussions of the villagers, Qin Yichen was silent for a moment, then slowly said:

"I've heard everything clearly and have written down your statements. Comrade Shen, you are completely innocent in this entire matter. The Zhou brothers and Comrade Liu Juan, you have framed and blackmailed Comrade Shen simply because of a single statement by Shi Zhiqing. Wait a minute, all of you, follow me back to the police station for detention!"

When the Zhou family and Liu Juan heard they were being taken to the police station, they panicked. Was there any chance of getting out once they were inside?

Thinking of this, Zhou Jinxia quickly started to argue, "Comrade Public Security, we didn't blackmail Shen Zhiqing. It was my wife who said that my little brother was injured because of Shen Zhiqing, and we just want to ask Shen Zhiqing for some medical expenses. Besides, we didn't even enter her house or do anything to her, so there's no need to go to the police station!"

"Comrade Public Security, I said those words to them because I was anxious at the moment. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against us." Liu Juan also quickly begged for mercy.

Qin Yichen fixed his gaze on Zhou Jinxia coldly, his tone filled with unquestionable authority:

"You should be thankful that you didn't step into this courtyard. Otherwise, it wouldn't just be detention! If you lay hands on the female educated youth again, you'd be shot. And you,"

He turned his gaze to Liu Juan, "Your behavior is even worse! I'm a public security officer! Everything is done according to the law. Don't bargain with me!"

Zhou Jinxia shuddered at Qin Yichen's harsh words and quickly shut up, not daring to say anything. Liu Juan's face was also pale, and her body was trembling slightly.

At this moment, Shen Nian suddenly spoke, his voice clear and firm, attracting everyone's attention: "Comrade Public Security, Liu Juan brought the Zhou brothers to my house today to cause trouble. I suspect she did it on purpose."

"Intentional? Why do you say that?" Qin Yichen frowned slightly and turned his gaze to Shen Nian.

"Before, Liu Juan brought a group of her family members to my house to cause trouble, trying to force her brother to come to me. I clearly refused, but she wouldn't listen. She even tried to use the majority to force the minority, and I eventually kicked her out. So she must have resentment towards me. This time, she must be thinking of taking advantage of her brother-in-law's injury to deliberately incite the Zhou family to cause trouble for me."

Shen Nian told the story of how Liu Juan took her family to a brothel. Before that, she had never thought of calling the police.

Since she chose to call the police this time, she should be sent to the police station for a few days! This way, when she sees me in the brigade in the future, she will be so scared that she will remember what happened today.

Upon hearing this, Liu Juan became emotional and retorted sharply, "Shen Nian! You're talking nonsense! Who holds a grudge against you? My brother-in-law is truly injured, and we're looking for an explanation from you!"

Shen Nian ignored Liu Juan's rebuttal and added, "By the way, Public Security Comrade, Liu Juan's brother and her mother said at the time that after her brother and I were married, they would sell both of my brothers and let me work like a slave to support their family."

After Qin Yichen heard Shen Nian's last words, he cast a cold gaze at Liu Juan. Liu Juan couldn't help but shrink back, still trying to defend herself: "Comrade Public Security! She's talking nonsense! Don't listen to her..."

"The police are investigating a case! Do you need to interrupt?" Qin Yichen interrupted Liu Juan harshly. His eyes were like knives, silencing Liu Juan instantly.

The atmosphere at the scene had already frozen when Shen Nian finished speaking. At this time, everyone was frightened by Qin Yichen's voice and held their breath. They all looked at Qin Yichen quietly, waiting for his next move.

Qin Yichen felt the cold aura emanating from Gu Yanqing behind him and shivered involuntarily.

He quickly turned to look at Shen Nian, his tone softened a little: "Comrade Shen, regarding what you just said, can you provide evidence that Liu Juan brought people to force you to marry, or is there anyone willing to testify for you?"

After saying this, Qin Yichen felt the cold air behind him become even stronger. But he was a public security officer and could only act according to the law.

"I, I, I, Uncle Public Security, I can testify!"

"We can also testify!"

Shen Nianle and the others who had already returned quickly raised their hands. Children such as Li Erwa and Chunyang also stood beside them and raised their hands high.

Qin Yichen saw that only the children raised their hands, while the adults remained silent. He understood that they were afraid of offending the Zhou family.

"Comrade Public Security, I know about this." Aunt Zhang came out from Shen Nian's yard.
