Scholars in the courtyard

As dusk fell, lights were lit in the courtyard, but the crowd of spectators did not disperse.

Everyone gathered around the middle courtyard, and even some people from the neighboring courtyard gathered to watch.

In this era of lack of cultural entertainment and nightlife, watching the excitement has become one of the important ways for people to vent their loneliness.

In the middle, Yang Xiaotao was tired and stood holding the locust tree to rest.

On the ground, Silly Zhu held his head and cried out sadly.

In front of them, three uncles stood together. The first uncle, Yi Zhonghai, was so angry that people didn't dare to get close to him.

The second uncle looked like an official. He wanted to show off but was blocked by Yang Xiaotao's rolling pin. The third uncle, just pretend he doesn't exist.

This is what the third uncle wants most in his heart.

On the other side, Mrs. Jia Zhang didn't dare to curse anymore. She was really frightened by Yang Xiaotao's madness.

He has been beating for more than half an hour. Now that he is tired, he steps forward and kicks him from time to time.

Qin Huairu rubbed Jia Dongxu's arm, and both of them looked at Yang Xiaotao with resentful expressions.

As for Xu Damao, he felt extremely happy.

It would be great if I could switch with Yang Xiaotao.

As for the melon-eating people around him, looking at Yang Xiaotao, he also changed his mind. Some people should not be offended, and if you offend some people, you should figure out how to make up for it.

There was silence, waiting.

After a while, Yan Jiekuang ran back, followed by three police officers.

He was wearing a navy blue police uniform with red dental floss on the collar, a large-brimmed hat on his head, and a golden five-pointed star on a red background shining brightly in the middle.

The three of them came to the yard. The eldest was named Zhang Shan, who was the director of the police station. He had been working here for more than ten years. It was said that he had arrested enemy agents and killed people. He had rich experience in fighting and was full of intimidation.

The two younger ones are Li Qing and Wang Ming. They have just joined the workforce. They are young and energetic and have a strong sense of justice.

"Director Zhang, you came at the right time."

"Hurry up and arrest this murderer and thug who beats people. It's so abominable. He just wants to beat people to death."

Yi Zhonghai saw the person coming and immediately stepped forward to accuse him.

Director Zhang just nodded. When he came, he learned some information from the reporter Yan Jiekuang. Although it was a bit one-sided, it also explained some situations.

"Director Zhang, I am the second uncle of this courtyard. The thing is like this, the name of the beater is Yang Xiaotao, and the one who was beaten is He Yuzhu, and there was a little conflict between the two.

Yang Xiaotao was about to catch him and kill him. You must educate him well and not let such a dangerous person stay in the compound and endanger the safety of the people! "

There was also a squirt in the bangs!

"Yes, Director Zhang, such bad elements must be arrested and imprisoned."

"My son stepped forward to start a fight and was beaten with a stick. His arm was almost broken. I want him to pay for it. If he doesn't have money, he will pay for the house!"

On the other hand, Jia Zhang also jumped out and criticized.

Many people around him booed, but Jia Zhang didn't care at all. He stared at Yang Xiaotao and wanted to shoot Yang Xiaotao immediately, and then his house would belong to the Jia family.

"Comrade police officers, you have to make the decision for my brother."

He Yuyu rushed over at this time and helped He Yuzhu up. The scars on his face and body were not much different from those of Yang Xiaotao a few days ago.

Especially with the big bump on his head and swollen face, he was extremely miserable.

He Yuzhu wanted to speak, but his face hurt, and he just looked at Yang Xiaotao with hatred.

Many people around him began to criticize, saying that Yang Xiaotao was too harsh.

Faced with the accusations from everyone and the noise in the courtyard, Director Zhang frowned and said, "Everyone be quiet!"

For a moment, people around him didn't dare to speak.

As a veteran policeman for more than ten years, he observed the beating Yang Xiaotao when he came in. He looked calm and showed no fear at all.

Such people are either bold or fearless.

Be confident, and this foundation can be authority, power, or interests.

It can also mean righteousness, justice, and truth.

The former doesn't work in front of him. As long as he does something illegal, it won't work for anyone.

But if it was the latter, he glanced at the beaten He Yuzhu and hummed, the law would not sympathize with the poor villain.

"You two stand up, others stay back!"

Director Zhang has dealt with this kind of thing many times and has rich experience. He understands that he cannot be influenced by the on-site environment.

Yang Xiaotao threw the rolling pin to the ground and stepped forward. He had no fear at all.

The whole thing was caused by Silly Zhu in the first place. His resistance could be regarded as self-defense. The only thing that went too far was that he struck too hard.

But from another perspective, if he is beaten, he may not be better than Silly Pillar.

He Yuyu let go of Sha Zhu and stepped aside with the other uncles, leaving Sha Zhu alone.

"Xiao Li, go and visit the surrounding area."

Director Zhang said, Li Qing picked up the pen and paper and walked towards the people around him.

"Xiao Wang, record it!"

"What are your names?"

"Yang Xiaotao."

"He Yuzhu!"

"Why fight?"

"I don't know. Before I even entered the door, he chased me with a rolling pin and said he was going to beat me to death."

Yang Xiaotao looked innocent.

"Fart, if you don't do that, can I beat you?"

Silly Zhu shouted angrily, still covering his head with his hands, and his face hurt from speaking in a hurry.

"Shut up, everyone. You speak first."

Director Zhang pointed at Yang Xiaotao.

"good."

"This afternoon, I just returned from..."

"He chased me, and I asked the elders in the yard to help take care of it. Who knew that the elders said this was our private matter and they didn't care."

"Then he chased me and said he was going to beat me to death."

"I was so scared at the time. He and Yuzhu often fought in the yard, and his methods were very dark. Many people in our yard were beaten by him."

"If you don't believe it, you can ask Xu Damao, he can testify."

"Yang Xiaotao, don't talk nonsense. I want you to explain things. Don't talk about the past."

Before Director Zhang could speak, Yi Zhonghai, who heard Yang Xiaotao say that Silly Zhu often beat people, couldn't hold himself still and shouted quickly.

"Yi Zhonghai, did you let me speak?"

How could Director Zhang be fooled by him?

A stern look struck Yi Zhonghai, and Yi Zhonghai immediately took a step back. It was true that he was an eighth-level fitter and a big man in the courtyard, but he was nothing in front of the police.

Yi Zhonghai was panicked and quickly winked at his aunt, who understood and immediately ran to the backyard.

"Who is Xu Damao?"

"I-I'm here!"

"Is what Yang Xiaotao said just now the truth?"

Xu Damao jumped out immediately and ignored Yi Zhonghai's warning look. What a joke! On weekdays, when he was being chased and beaten by Silly Zhu, Yi Zhonghai liked to take sides. After finally dealing with Silly Zhu, he didn't care about anything else.

What's more, this time he really vented his anger.

"Comrade police officer, Yang Xiaotao is right."

"Silly Zhu is He Yuzhu. He is domineering in the yard and often beats people."

"Especially for me, he hits me at every turn. People in these yards will know if you just ask."

"Comrade policeman, he beat me two days ago. Look, there are still traces of this!"

Xu Damao said as he rolled up the clothes around his waist, but was stopped by Zhang on the side.

Silly Zhu stood together, hating Xu Damao in his eyes. Although his body was in great pain, he still couldn't help but be angry.

"Xu Damao, you little guy, just wait!"

Silly Zhu shouted out, Zhang Suo immediately looked over, and his aura immediately made Silly Zhu shut up.

Zhang Suo brought this guy with him. How could a bastard like Silly Zhu bear the power of killing people?

Silly Zhu was silent, Xu Damao said no more, just looked at Silly Zhu provocatively.

"record!"

"Go on."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, and then continued, "He chased me and accidentally tripped me. Then I took advantage of him not paying attention and grabbed the rolling pin to fight back!"

"Do you call that counterattack?"

"Look at what you did. You even begged for mercy but you didn't stop. You are a typical revenge person. You are vicious!"

After all, Yi Zhonghai couldn't control himself and asked loudly.

Yang Xiaotao ignored him and looked at Zhang Suo.

"Yi Zhonghai, if you interrupt the interrogation again, I have the right to take you back!"

The voice was very soft, but it made Yi Zhonghai shut up and he did not dare to say more. He only hoped that the eldest mother would quickly invite the old lady.

When people around him saw that the old man was embarrassed, they immediately shut up.

Only the second uncle's eyes were rolling, and his heart was addicted to officialdom.

"Opportunity, this is an opportunity!"

After training Yi Zhonghai, Zhang Suo said again.

"Comrade He Yuzhu, is what Yang Xiaotao just said true?"

Silly Zhu lowered his head and did not deny it.

"It's true, but I hit him for a reason."

Silly Zhu raised his head and gritted his teeth.

Zhang Suo heard the words, "Then you say it."

Si Zhu received the instruction and immediately told what happened today.

"I just went to the toilet..."

"Then I saw the man running to the third workshop...~"

"I think I am a good person in this compound. The only ones I don't deal with are Xu Damao and Yang Xiaotao. Now that Yang Xiaotao is in the third workshop, it must be him!"

Silly Zhu expressed his judgment. Before Yang Xiaotao could speak, Zhang Suo was muttering in his heart.

Is this person stupid?

This is too subjective.

Zhang Suo remained calm and looked at Yang Xiaotao.

"how do you say?"

Yang Xiaotao smiled freely and said, "Suo Zhang, what He Yuzhu just said was all his own speculation, and there is no evidence at all."

"Furthermore, when he had an accident, I was conducting an assessment, and I never left the workshop during the entire assessment period."

"On this point, the workers in the third workshop can testify to me."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, many people in the crowd spoke up to testify.

Silly Zhu was stunned.

Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu and others on the side were also confused. Silly Zhu thought about relationships all by himself.

They thought that Shazhu had definite evidence, so they hoped that Shazhu would vent their anger on them.

Now it seems that that person is not Yang Xiaotao, and Shazhu's plan was in vain.

"No, no, how, how is it possible?"

Silly Zhu muttered, "It's not you, why are you running?"

"It's a joke. If I don't run away, I'll just stand there and let you beat me!"

Yang Xiaotao sneered, and Shazhu's face turned red.

"Zhang Suo, I was wrong, but look, his beating was too severe."

Silly Zhu's mind was spinning quickly and he immediately exposed the scars on his body.

"Yeah, that's a beating to death."

"Yes, the beating was too harsh."

People around me talked in low voices and didn't dare to speak loudly.

Zhang Suo frowned when he looked at the scars on Sha Zhu's body. He looked at Yang Xiaotao, and before he could speak, Yang Xiaotao said aggrievedly, "Zhang Suo, you don't know."

"I wanted to stop, but he said he would beat me to death when he got up."

"I was scared and had no choice but to keep fighting."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Shazhu yelled, "You fart."

"Everyone around you has heard what you said, and you still want to cheat?"

Silly Zhu was breathing heavily. Everyone knew that he was speaking out of anger. Everyone knew how Yang Xiaotao could take it seriously?

However, he couldn't refute it.

Zhang saw this and understood the reason. At this time, Xiao Li, who was visiting, also came back. What the people around him said were consistent with what they said.

Seeing this, Zhang Suo's expression turned cold, and people around him did not dare to speak.

Silly Zhu also lowered his head, this time he was defeated.
