Not only is Shazhu going to be finished, but I also have to take the responsibility. Now that I think about it, it's not worth it at all.

"Silly Zhu, let's confess!"

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said.

"Uncle, are you kidding me? How can we hire him? If we hire him, I will go to jail. I can't go to jail. I still have to work and be a chef. Also, Sister Qin needs my help. Without me, they can't even have food to eat."

Sha Zhu refused to confess.

"The situation is different now. Someone has confessed the facts. We will have a trial in the near future. You know, if we confess now, it would be considered as surrendering ourselves and we can be given a lighter sentence."

"I know you don't want to go to jail, but I don't want to either! If I go to jail, what will happen to my family? What about my aunt? What about the factory? I started as an apprentice and worked my way up to level eight fitter. I worked hard to get there."

"No, I have to find the police and explain everything to them."

Having said that, Yi Zhonghai stood up and prepared to explain things to the police.

He has lost his mindset. He didn't think it through before, but now he has completely figured it out. Only by turning himself in and receiving lenient treatment will it be in the best interest of him.

He had overestimated himself before and thought he could suppress the matter, but ended up ending up in the detention center. No, he had to talk to the police.

Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to take a step, he was pulled back by Sha Zhu.

"Uncle, what are you doing? Are you so impatient? Even if you admit it now, you will still be punished. We have no way back. Only if we keep denying it, we will have a chance to escape punishment and regain our freedom."

"But...but someone has already told the truth! Are we just going to sit there and wait for death?"

An uncle questioned.

"Did you see what they said? Those were all said by the police. They are trying to scare you. It's not true. Don't be fooled. If someone really confessed, we wouldn't be staying here now. We would be sent to court for trial. Don't panic! If someone really told us, it wouldn't be too late for us to turn ourselves in then."

Sha Zhu quickly reminded Yi Zhonghai.

After listening to Sha Zhu's words, Yi Zhonghai suddenly calmed down. Yes, maybe the evidence the police mentioned was not what he thought, or maybe no one said it at all, and the police were just trying to scare him.

"Hey! I told Qin Huairu and the others not to panic, but I panicked myself."

Yi Zhonghai sighed.

Soon he calmed down and was no longer so scared.

In the afternoon, someone from the police finally came: "Yi Zhonghai, we have something to ask you."

The police opened the door of the cell and let Yi Zhonghai out to interrogate him.

He knew the police would interrogate him, but he didn't expect that he would be let go so soon. However, this was also a good thing, as it was not like last night, when there was a surprise attack in the middle of the night.

After Yi Zhonghai arrived at the interrogation room, he calmly sat down on the chair in the middle. Two policemen were already sitting in front of the long table, waiting to interrogate him.

He knew that if he was still being interrogated now, it meant that no one would confess the matter.

So he still has a chance, and his heart is naturally much calmer.

"Yi Zhonghai, you still don't admit it now?"

The policeman sat at the table and spoke to Yi Zhonghai seriously.

"Admit what?"

Yi Zhonghai asked calmly.

"What did you say? Admit that you shielded He Yuzhu."

The policeman said very seriously.

"I have said this many times. I did not shield him. I have no reason to shield him. He is just my neighbor, not my relative. What good will it do me if I shield him?"

"I treat him the same as I treat Chen Rufeng. I am the head of the courtyard, and I treat everyone equally. There is no such thing as shielding anyone."

Yi Zhonghai said confidently.

"You are still stubborn. We already have evidence. Aren't you afraid at all?"

The policeman said coldly.

"Where's the evidence?"

Yi Zhonghai asked, he wanted to know what evidence the police were talking about.

He had already sorted out the course of events and felt that it was not what Qin Huairu and the others said. As for what the evidence the police mentioned was, he had no idea.

Seeing that he refused to admit it, the police said, "Of course we have evidence, but there is no need to tell you who it is. Someone has already testified against you. You were at the scene when Chen Rufeng was beaten that day, and you found the matter serious, so you suppressed it. Don't you agree?"

"No, it's not like that, I didn't, I never did."

Yi Zhonghai still refused to admit it.

"You still don't admit it? Tell me, where were you on the night of the incident?"

the policeman asked loudly.

"I'm at home. I haven't gone anywhere."

Yi Zhonghai remained silent.

"Nonsense, you clearly went to the deaf old lady's house that night, and He Yuzhu was there too. You were conspiring to suppress this matter. Someone has heard your conversation, and she has told us about it."

"Is this true?"

When the police said this, Yi Zhonghai was stunned.

He thought their conversation was private and no one could hear it, but it was eventually overheard by someone who told the police.

"Who... who told you?"

Yi Zhonghai said this with an almost trembling voice.

"We won't tell you who it is, you just have to admit whether it happened or not."

The police naturally wouldn't tell him who it was, and he would naturally know who it was when he went to court for trial.

"I didn't. I didn't say that, nor did I do that. That person must be maliciously fabricating me. He is framing me."

Yi Zhonghai said quickly.

This also proved to him that Qin Huairu and the others really didn't say anything. As long as Qin Huairu and the others didn't say it, he didn't need to admit it.

Seeing that he was not telling the truth, the police asked him some pointed questions, but no matter what they tried, he just refused to admit it.

In the end, they had no choice but to send him back to the detention center.

But it doesn’t matter. The police are not in a hurry. Now that he is in custody, they are not afraid that he will not confess.

"Uncle, did the police tell us who reported us?"

When He Yuzhu saw Yi Zhonghai coming back, he asked hurriedly. He had been feeling uneasy ever since Yi Zhonghai was taken away. Although he felt that it was not Qin Huairu and the others who gave him away, he was still worried and afraid. After all, he had done something wrong.

"They didn't say, but I think it definitely wasn't Qin Huairu and the others, or it could be someone else, or maybe there was no such person at all, and the police made it up to scare me."

Yi Zhonghai said.

"Master, it definitely can't be theirs. You've already given them the correct answer, so why would they tell you? Besides, it won't do them any good if they tell you. They are in the same boat with us now."

He Yuzhu analyzed.
