Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 67 Let’s open a separate chapter to talk about Mingzai
The comments in recent days are basically all about Mingzai, so I decided to open a separate chapter to respond to things about Mingzai for the last time. Emmm, he is just a supporting character, and I won’t waste my time on him anymore.

Everyone's opinions can basically be summarized into two points: First, the protagonist used a trick to seize Mingzi's house, and the protagonist is really bad. Second, how can we determine that Mingzi will not retaliate in an even more vicious way in the future?
Let's talk about the first point first. In Chapter 23 of the book, Mingzi comes to Kang's house to trick A Zong into going to Yunnan. If the protagonist does not stop him, what will be A Zong's fate? He will be injected with drugs by drug dealers and become addicted to drugs. This thing cannot be cured by going to a drug rehabilitation center, otherwise why do so many people who come out of drug rehabilitation centers relapse? Even if they really quit, they have to go through a painful process that ordinary people cannot endure.

Attempted crime and no crime are two completely different concepts. According to the provisions of the Criminal Law, the punishment for attempted crime can be mitigated or reduced in comparison with the punishment for completed crime. Attempted crime refers to the behavior of the criminal who has started to commit a crime but failed to succeed due to reasons beyond the criminal's control.

Mingzai is a typical example of a criminal attempt. He had already tried to trick Ah Zong into going to Yunnan, but failed because of the protagonist. As for why he didn't go to jail? In the original plot, he was released very quickly after the attempt, so he will not go to jail even more if he fails here. I can only say that there is insufficient evidence.

The plot set by the protagonist is just to take advantage of the opponent's trick. If the protagonist does not buy his fake Buddha statue, he will cheat other people and he will be punished. The protagonist just doubled his punishment. It is regarded as the punishment for him cheating A Zong to go to Yunnan.

How can we talk about morality when it comes to a person who attempted a crime and intended to cause serious harm to his own family?

Then the second point is that people may have no experience, so they overestimate the destructive power of drug addicts. Do you remember what the anti-drug propaganda film said? One person takes drugs, and the whole family suffers. The only people that drug addicts can harm are their family members.

Drugs are very harmful to people. They can make you thin, weak, and frail, and can even enter your brain, reducing your intelligence and thinking ability.

For example, a gangster who is short of money and a drug addict who is short of money, who is more threatening to you? Definitely the gangster.

Because the thugs will stop you, rob you, beat you, and do whatever it takes to get you to hand over your money.

As for drug addicts, they will beg you to have mercy on them. If you tell them that there is a septic tank over there and you can give them 10 yuan for every mouthful of shit they eat, they will eat the septic tank clean. So the biggest harm they can do to you is that they make you sick by eating shit.

This is the damage that drugs have done to his brain power. His thinking logic has completely changed. Even if he still has a little intelligence and knows how to rob you, the damage that drugs have done to his body will make it so that he can't beat you.

Therefore, the only people that a drug addict can hurt are his family members, because only his family members will truly pity him when he pretends to be pitiful.

The eldest son of our old neighbor and the second son of my mother's cousin are both drug addicts. I have experienced this. I remember when I was about 10 or 9 years old, anyway, I was in elementary school. One day when I was going home from school, I met the eldest son of my neighbor. He stopped me. He was in his 20s or 30s. If he was a gangster, he would definitely rob a kid like me. He would easily knock me down and take away my pocket money. But he was a drug addict. He knelt down and begged me to pity him. He said, "Please have pity on your uncle."
Quite shocked.

Therefore, you don’t have to worry that the drug addict will come back to take revenge on you when he runs out of money. When he runs out of money, he will only kneel down and beg you when he sees you.

That’s all I have to say about Mingzai.
