Her hands were stained with blood; all she wanted was for her family to be able to live in the sunlight.
But if her whole family were sent to prison, what would happen to her granddaughter? Who would take care of her?
Violent thoughts collided in her heart. She clenched her teeth and swore to herself that, no matter what, she would keep the secret locked inside her skull. She absolutely could not say it!
Unfortunately, there were some people in this world who did not need others to say it aloud.
The old woman was taken away. Cheng Long approached hesitantly. "Boss, about this matter..."
Shi Tiexin said blandly, "Everything she said was true, except for one thing: after she killed him, her daughter and son helped transport and bury the body. Under Nie's City law, the old woman committed intentional homicide, while her daughter and son are accomplices in the same case. Although they did not directly participate in the murder, they still have to serve prison sentences."
Cheng Long asked, "Should I go bring the suspects back?"
Shi Tiexin looked at Cheng Long. "What a pointless question. You're a police officer. Your duty is to arrest criminals. Do you need to ask whether you should?"
Cheng Long lowered his head. "Yes..."
"Come here, sit." Shi Tiexin brought Cheng Long over to sit at one side. "Do you think the old woman is pitiful, her daughter is pitiful too, and her granddaughter is even more pitiful? That the dead bastard of a man was an utterly vile son of a bitch, so you simply don't want to arrest them?"
Cheng Long took a deep breath and raised his head. "I understand, Boss. I shouldn't think that way."
Shi Tiexin flicked him on the forehead. "You understand my ass!"
