Chapter 13 Conviction
Chapter 13 Conviction
His second brother looked unhappy, so Bai Hui did not dare to cry loudly. He mainly wanted to please his brother and keep his daughter by his side.
"Brother, second brother, I really know I was wrong. You've beaten me and scolded me, but can you please not take Xiao Yuan away? At worst, I can leave Xiao Yuan with my parents. She's closer so it's more convenient for me to take a look at her from time to time."
Bai Hui rarely has time to visit his parents after work.
Before, my second brother’s child Bai Ou was still young, so Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai helped take care of him for two years.
But later, Bai Ou reached school age and followed Bai Yao back to the military region to study, and he was not seen for another two or three years.
The old man felt sorry for his granddaughter who was born prematurely and was weak, and had long wanted to take her to his side and take good care of her. However, his son and daughter-in-law were reluctant to part with the child and refused to let go despite several attempts. In the end, he had to give up.
Now that this has happened, Bai Hui himself is scared.
Rather than sending your delicate daughter to his second brother's military camp to fight with a bunch of brats, it would be better to send her to the compound.
He suddenly seemed to remember something and looked at his second brother, "Brother, you didn't tell Dad about Xiao Yuan, right?"
If the old man knew he had gotten into such a big mess, he would break one of his legs with that solid wooden crutch.
"No." Bai Yao didn't scare him this time and answered truthfully, "Mom hasn't been feeling well lately, so don't mention it in front of her. She'll have another heart attack."
"As long as you don't tell me, I won't dare to ask for a beating." Bai Hui said embarrassedly.
"Stop complaining. It's getting late. Go get some sleep now and come with me to the bureau tomorrow morning." Bai Yao raised his foot and kicked him on the calf, causing him to gasp. "A grown man in his twenties cries all day long. He has been working for so long but still hasn't learned to be steady."
"Hiss~ You are my real brother, why should I pretend in front of you." Bai Hui was embarrassed by what he said, he straightened his clothes, patted his butt and the shoe prints on his legs, "Brother, go to bed early, I'm leaving."
Seeing that he was still preparing to go out so late at night, Bai Yao asked casually: "Going? Where are you going?"
Bai Hui said as a matter of course: "I have a wife and children, so of course I will go home to sleep. Second brother, you can just stay in this room for one night. Okay, let's go."
Bai Yao: ...
The next day, the two brothers of the Bai family went to the police station in Haikou together.
This matter is of great importance. Given the status of the Bai family, the city leaders have taken it very seriously. The case was just filed yesterday and there was some progress this morning.
The old-school criminal police were very experienced. Xu Xiuli couldn't stand the pressure and vomited a lot of things that night.
When the confession was presented, everyone was shocked.
Now it is not just about kidnapping high-ranking officials' children for ransom, but there is also a complete human trafficking network behind it.
Xu Xiuli's brother even provided information about a drug transaction, including the names of several important persons in charge, the transaction channels, location, time and method.
That afternoon, based on the clues he provided, the Haikou Anti-Drug Brigade set up an ambush at the transaction location in advance, and eventually caught the criminal and the evidence.
The man was brought to the interrogation room, and within 24 hours, they made a major breakthrough in the anti-drug work in Haikou, which had been at a standstill for a long time due to lack of clues.
As early as yesterday afternoon, Bai Yao's men had already found the warehouse where Xu Xiuli was preparing to kidnap people.
Xu Xiuli's accomplices were in the warehouse and were not on guard. They were sitting there drinking and chatting, discussing where they were going to enjoy themselves after they finished the job and got the money.
So they tied the man up and took him back without any effort, and put him in the interrogation room as well.
Fortunately, they were quick and efficient, otherwise if it had been delayed until today, we would have to queue up to enter the interrogation room.
These things were all dug up by Bai Yao. He had written the report a few days ago and accepted a task from his superiors to cooperate with the police to destroy the hideout of criminal D.
Bai Hui stayed in Haikou and was responsible for following up on the progress of the human trafficking investigation.
The city leaders also attached great importance to this matter, especially since the suspect was caught in Yunlan Huating, where only the rich or noble live.
If Xu Xiuli had not exposed the matter in advance, perhaps someone's child would have been taken away, so everyone was very concerned about the subsequent developments.
The incident raged for more than two months and caused a sensation in Haikou. With the solving of the kidnapping case, the authorities followed the clues to many missing children and women.
Many parents of lost children were able to find their children.
For a time, the Internet was filled with praises for Haikou officials and the powerful motherland.
But not all children are safe. Some of them were taken away when they were still infancy, and even if they are rescued now, they do not recognize their biological parents.
Some victims were even treated inhumanely during this period, suffering irreversible damage both physically and mentally.
Jiang Zhi almost lost her daughter due to negligence, and she experienced the pain of separation from her daughter. In order to pray for her daughter, she established a charity foundation in the name of the Bai family, providing financial, medical and other assistance to help the victim's families find their relatives and get out of trouble.
Near the end of the year, news came from Bai Yao that this special joint combat mission was successfully completed.
Not only did they destroy the enemy's criminal den, but they also captured 13 high-ranking criminals led by the criminal and 83 accomplices, dealing a fatal blow to the criminal.
The evidence was conclusive, the matter came to an end, and the court was opened.
Xu Xiuli and others were punished for multiple crimes, and the dozens of kilograms of drugs found in the tires became the brick that broke the camel's back.
The judge sentenced him to death in court and he was executed along with the arrested drug dealers in mid-December.
On this day, Mr. Bai was watching the news at home. The TV was replaying the judge's verdict. Bai Hui happened to call and said that he would take Bai Yuan back with him at the end of the year and that he wanted to leave the child with him for a few more years.
Mr. Bai was very happy. He pulled the old lady and turned on the loudspeaker and couldn't stop laughing.
At this time, another phone call came in. The person on the other end was an old friend of Mr. Bai. His children all worked in the system and happened to take over and participate in handling these major cases in Haikou.
This matter was handled beautifully. Bai Yao and Bai Hui were the main forces and played a crucial role in the operation. The people under them were able to leave a strong mark in their work resumes and their year-end performance appraisals were also indispensable, so they naturally returned the favor and accepted the favor.
At this time, the old friend praised Mr. Bai, and praised Bai Yao and Bai Hui as the best in the world, saying that they were young and promising, pillars of the country, and they had inherited their father's style and were better than their father.
As a result, the story of Bai Yuan almost being kidnapped was leaked.
Half an hour ago, the old couple were happily waiting for their granddaughter to come. Now, when the old lady heard that her granddaughter almost got into trouble, she was so frightened that she couldn't breathe. She had a heart attack on the spot and was taken to the ICU while holding her chest.
Fortunately, Mrs. Bai had quick-acting heart pills with her and was sent to the hospital in time, so nothing serious happened.
The old man was busy supporting his wife and accidentally sprained his ankle, and had to stay in the hospital for more than half a month.
He was so angry that he called his two sons over and gave them a good scolding.
"I was wondering why you were willing to send your granddaughter to us to keep her company. I never expected that you would turn around like a car crashing into a wall or snot flying out of your mouth. Such a big thing has happened and everyone knows about it, but we are still in the dark. I asked you to take care of a child but you can't even abandon it. What else can you do? I'm going to beat you to death, you bastard—"
Bai Hui lowered his head and dared not say a word.
The old man became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and was about to reach out to touch the crutch in the corner in his electric wheelchair, so Bai Yao quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"Dad, I've already taught the third child a lesson, and he already knew he was wrong."
Who knew that the old man was so strong and majestic, and he grabbed his walking stick and hit Bai Yao with it.
"And you! You are also unfilial!"
Bai Yao looked at his father in astonishment, with a rare look of confusion in his eyes.
"You dare to help him hide such a big thing? Are you afraid that you won't piss me off to death?"
Bai Yao wanted to step forward to explain: "Dad, I am..."
The old man snorted coldly: "Just hit it?"
Bai Yao was stunned, then quickly lowered his head, his eyes evasive, with a bit of guilt.
Mr. Bai: "You are so arrogant and you dare to crash into the car! My granddaughter was still in the car, and you dare to crash into it. It's our little Yuan's luck that he didn't get hurt, otherwise I would have skinned you alive!"
Mrs. Bai, who was in the next bed, was also wearing a ventilator. She pointed at her two sons with her fingers holding the ECG monitor clip, and said, "Beat them...beat them...oh...beat them all..."
In the end, Mr. Bai cursed loudly and his blood pressure soared, which alarmed the nurses in the hospital. Only then did the two brothers manage to escape from the predicament.
In the corridor, Bai Hui held onto his second brother who had blocked a few crutches for him, and said with tears in his eyes: "Brother, you still love me."
Bai Yao's back ached from the beating. He glanced at him and said, "Dad is so old. If he hits you, he might hurt his waist."
Bai Hui: ...
