Chapter 613: The Retreat Has Already Been Arranged
The murderer is dead, and Chen Guanlou hopes that the Criminal Department will close the case.
But everyone in the Ministry of Punishment was dissatisfied, including Sun Daoning.
"If a squad leader dies, he dies. Where is the list I want? Without a list, how can I close the case?"
"Bantou Wang is the mastermind. Once he dies, the clues will be cut off."
"Chen Yucheng, you have neglected your duties!"
"Old Sun, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. The duty of the prison is to guard the prisoners, and I haven't heard that they are also responsible for interrogating cases. Squad leader Wang refuses to hand over the list, can I still punish him? I am a good citizen who abides by the law, not a member of the Six Gates."
Chen Guanlou is confident.
Yes, he knew early on that Bantou Wang had chosen to commit suicide, sacrificing one person to save everyone. So what? He is just the jailer of a small prison. He is really not responsible for trying cases, let alone arresting people. He has fulfilled his duty by sending someone to report the crime in time.
Sun Daoning wanted to find fault in the egg, and he would not agree to anything.
"Stay back!" Sun Daoning's expression was hard to describe.
Chen Guanlou was not dismissed so easily, "The case is over! I won't harass anyone in Tianlao again, that's for sure."
Sun Daoning raised his eyelids and said, "The Criminal Department is handling the case. When will it be your turn as a little jailer to intervene? Hurry up and get out! You can't handle even a small matter."
If Chen Guanlou doesn't leave, he will just stay.
Sun Daoning lost his temper because of him, "Okay, okay, I'll ask someone to take the body back tomorrow. I really can't count on Tianlao to help handle the case."
"The adults have sharp eyesight, and I admire you very much!"
If you realize this earlier, nothing will happen. He will not stop until someone loses his life.
After receiving a positive answer, Chen Guanlou left the Criminal Department.
Arrange the jailer to go to Wang's house first and set up the mourning shed.
"Early tomorrow morning, take a few people to pick up the body at Liumen, and deal with the funeral first." He ordered Chen Quan and Liu She.
No one is stupid.
Everyone knew that when Team Leader Wang died, his replacement would have to be chosen from Chen Quan and Liu She. Both of them are expected to be in the office, it just depends on who performs better in the past few days.
Therefore, the two people are harmonious on the surface, but fiercely competitive in private.
Chen Guanlou is happy to see the success.
Without competition, Tianlao would be like a pool of stagnant water. He didn't want to work with a backwater.
He also arranged for Mu Qingshan to go to the Wang family to help register and greet the guests who expressed condolences.
"Someone has passed away in Tianlao, and everyone must help each other. You are my master, so naturally you cannot stay out of the matter. You will represent me and go to the Wang family to sit down, so that you can watch for me and get more experience."
Mu Qingshan's face turned gray and he had not yet fully recovered. Now that I have heard the instructions, I have something to do, and I feel a little energetic.
He still had doubts in his mind and couldn't help but say, "Since 'suicide' has been written and Dong Weng has withstood the investigation of the Ministry of Justice, why did Wang Bantou choose to commit suicide?"
"I managed to carry it, but I couldn't carry it all. I just carried most of it. After all, I still need a life to carry out the mission."
"What if it was written truthfully in the document that day that he swallowed gold and committed suicide?"
"How about it? Team leader Wang and the dozens of jailers under him, all who are on duty for the day will die! Now you know how heavy the pen in your hand is. Back then, when I was on duty in the C-shaped prison , the A-shaped prison was cleaned several times in just a few months, and a lot of guards died. Since I arrived in the A-shaped prison, this kind of thing has happened less often. You should be lucky that only one person died this time! "
Chen Guanlou patted Mu Qingshan on the shoulder, hoping that he would think more openly. This kind of thing will inevitably happen often in the future. When you are in Tianlao, you must develop a strong heart early on, as strong as steel.
Medical Officer Mu said with disgust: "I still don't know enough! I almost became a fool by studying."
Mu Qingshan smiled bitterly, did not refute, packed up, got up and went to Wang's house to help with the funeral.
Early the next morning, Bantou Wang's body was successfully recovered and quickly transported back to Wang's house. The ice cubes prepared in advance were quickly used. On such a hot day, the corpse already has a smell.
The funeral was carried out in an orderly manner.
Wang Bantou's wife, children, and family knelt in the mourning hall and cried.
Chen Guanlou went to burn a stick of incense, comforted him, and paid a generous tribute.
"If sister-in-law encounters difficulties in the future, just tell me. I have worked with Bantou Wang for many years, and I really can't bear to see him like this."
He also told the three sons of Bantou Wang, "If any of you want to work as a servant in Tianlao and inherit your father's legacy, come to Tianlao to find me after the funeral. Our small family is not as fastidious as scholars. What? We can't afford to keep our filial piety for three years. We have to find work if we stop talking."
The three sons of the Wang family just thanked them. Judging from their facial expressions, none of them seemed to have any intention of going to Tianlao to inherit their father's legacy.
Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, very surprised.
Didn't Team Leader Wang reveal his income in Tianlao? That’s not right! Even if he doesn't reveal it, the Wang family always needs money to live, and even a fool should know where the money comes from.
I'm not even tempted by the lucrative job in front of me.
"Could it be that before his death, Team Leader Wang had arranged your future?"
"I don't dare to deceive you. The year before last, my father made some arrangements and changed the status of the few of us to farmers. We were listed in the village outside the city and were eligible to study for the imperial examination."
"Oh! I really don't know about this. Bantou Wang is really thinking long-term. So, you three brothers all plan to study for the imperial examination?"
"My third brother is the best student. The teacher also said that he can take the exam and hopefully pass. As for me, I have found a job as an accountant in a warehouse." The eldest son of the Wang family said truthfully.
Chen Guanlou looked at the second son of the Wang family again.
The second son of the Wang family bowed slightly and said, "I have decided to join the army. After a hundred days, I will report to the army."
If nothing unexpected happens, the future of the second son of the Wang family has been arranged by Wang Bantou long ago, and he has taken the help of the master behind him.
No wonder he would rather die than give up the list.
The future of the three sons is firmly controlled by others. If he gives up the list, even if he can save his own life, the future of the three sons and the whole family will be ruined.
Choose the lesser of two evils!
Wang Bantou made the best choice in his opinion.
Chen Guanlou cannot blame him.
"Okay! Since you all have your own future, I won't mention the job in Tianlao. However, if you encounter difficulties in the future, don't be embarrassed. Just come to Tianlao to find me."
"Will you stay in Tianlao forever?" Wang's eldest son asked curiously.
Chen Guanlou pulled the corner of his mouth, "If nothing unexpected happens, I will stay in Tianlao for a long time."
"Thank you, sir!"
Chen Guanlou patted the shoulders of the three people, "Do a good job! If you don't have money, just let me know, don't be embarrassed."
