The two were very excited.
Since the suspect had already confessed, when they caught the person later, they wouldn't have to go to much trouble to get the confession.
However, they quickly calmed down.
The top priority now was to catch the person first.
Hua Qingqing glanced at the two of them and didn't give them a chance to speak.
Hua Qingqing's eyes were red. "Comrades, I actually suspect that my uncle is in danger now."
"?"
How could he be in danger out of the blue?
Police officer Liu sensed there was more to her words and asked, "What's the reason?"
Hua Qingqing wiped away her tears, looking worried and tense. "Previously, I noticed something was wrong with my uncle. After some questioning, he didn't hide anything and told me directly. Seeing his pained face, I thought he should just turn himself in."
The two police officers didn't expect there to be such a story.
But Yu Jianchuan didn't understand his niece's good intentions. If he had turned himself in earlier, how could he have become a suspect?
It was a pity, such a pity.
It was all fate. One wrong step and every step thereafter would be wrong.
"My uncle agreed. He said he was forced. He had been forced to smuggle foreign goods since Huacheng. Thinking about it, my uncle isn't that capable. He didn't receive much education and his friends are all good-for-nothings. He's always being deceived.
"With his connections, there's no way he could get so much goods. Uncle said there are many people behind him. Those are the real villains. If he quit, they would put a knife to his neck and force him to continue. If he wanted to back out, not only would something happen to him, but something would also happen to us as his family.
"Uncle promised me, but soon he disappeared. I suspect he was taken away.
"During this period, I went to the county again and found that there were no more street vendors. I don't know where my uncle is. I don't know if he really listened to me and fell out with those people. I don't know if he's alive or dead.
"Comrades, I beg you. Please rescue my uncle. He must have been taken away. He had already decided to turn himself in. He told us everything, which shows his sincerity. But now he's gone!"
Hua Qingqing's face was full of panic and fear, with her eyes and nose red.
The twins cried even more sincerely. Hearing Hua Qingqing's words, they had already assumed that their uncle was in danger!
The twins said in unison, "Uncle policemen, please save our uncle. He's really a good man!"
Police officers Liu and He realized that this was a serious matter.
Although they had found out that there were people smuggling foreign goods, they didn't know much about it. They didn't expect Yu Jianchuan to be just a pawn pushed out. The real smugglers were the ones behind the scenes, and they were so cruel that they were going to destroy the pawn!
This involved human lives.
They didn't expect this smuggling gang to be so bold, talking about killing so casually!
When the police officers thought they had asked enough, they were about to leave.
Granny Fang and Grandpa Yu came back. Seeing the police officers in uniform, their legs went weak and they almost fell to the ground. Then they supported each other and barely managed to stay standing.
The police officers, with their sharp eyes, saw their expressions and thought they were guilty. They frowned and asked again.
Hearing that their son had become a criminal, the old couple really went weak in the knees and knelt down.
Finally, finding they couldn't get any useful information from the old couple, the police officers left.
Hua Qingqing looked at Granny Fang, whose face was pale, and smiled. "Grandma, the things Uncle gave us are all stolen goods. We'll have to return them later. You should pack them up. When the police find Uncle, you can return the stolen goods.
"After all, your own son is more important than these worldly possessions, right?"
The old couple were in a daze and hadn't come to their senses yet.
Whether they had listened or not, Hua Qingqing went straight back to her room.
What she said just now was a warning to them.
After all, Granny Fang and Grandpa Yu were extremely money - loving. Not only did they deduct all her living expenses, but she was also afraid that these two would be so muddle - headed that they would hold on to the things Yu Jianchuan gave them, or even sell them while no one was investigating.
Then, Yu Jianchuan would really be finished.
...
For over a month, Yu Jianchuan had been living like a dog.
No, dogs were much happier than him.
Because dogs had freedom.
He was just a pile of mud.
After promising his niece that he would turn himself in that day, he was still afraid that the smugglers would be cruel and harm his family. So he offered to quit on his own initiative and didn't want a single cent.
The boss of the gang nodded and agreed with a smile. He was overjoyed and kowtowed. Just as he was about to leave, the gang members put a sack over his head and beat him severely.
He was locked in a wooden house in the mountains. The gang boss still wanted him to continue. Afraid of being beaten to death, he nodded in agreement. But the others didn't trust him, so they kept him locked up. They would give him a bit of food when they remembered.
However, now he sensed an opportunity to escape.
There was a friend in the gang who got along well with him. That person actually wanted to leave too, but didn't dare to say it.
In the past few days, that person told him that the police were arresting people in the county.
They were arresting people like them who smuggled foreign goods.
The situation was very critical because there were people watching at the stations. They couldn't leave even if they wanted to. Moreover, there were a lot of goods around. If they were discovered, it would be all over.
"Now the boss has contacted a freight truck and plans to take all the stuff away in a couple of days, and then we'll all leave together."
Yu Jianchuan's hands were tied. He was silent for a while and then suddenly said, "Do you really want to be a criminal for the rest of your life? I heard that your wife back in your hometown gave birth to a baby boy. If you're caught by the police this time, it will be a stain on your record for life, and your son will have a father who has committed a crime.
The man's breath caught in his throat. He looked at Yu Jianchuan. After a moment, he grabbed his hair in frustration.
"But what can we do now? You said you wanted to quit, and they beat you like this. You almost died. If the boss really shot you, you'd be a corpse by now! I don't want to die. I have a wife and son to support."
The reason the gang boss was the boss was that he had a gun. Having a gun meant having power.
Yu Jianchuan twitched the corner of his mouth, angry and laughing.
The reason the boss didn't shoot him was that he was useful. He was good at selling things, not because the boss was kind - hearted.
If someone really wanted to kill you, there was no reason.
Yu Jianchuan said, "The boss only has one gun, but the police have several. Do you choose to be a criminal or to atone for your crimes? Do you think you'll be safe forever if you follow the boss? Are there more of you or more police?"
The man thought it made sense and asked anxiously what to do.
"How can I atone for my crimes?"
Seeing that he had taken the bait, Yu Jianchuan let out a sigh of relief.
He motioned for the man to come closer and told him the plan he had thought about for a whole day and night.
