Upon examination, it was found that the hoe did indeed contain the blood of the deceased. The blood stains of Chen Lu's family also belonged to the deceased. Chen Lu's house was the scene of the first crime. When the dust settled, Lin Mu took his colleagues to arrest Chen Lu.

When Chen Lu saw the police coming, she automatically stretched out her hands and waited for the handcuffs to come. "Mother......" Chang E stood at the door, her eyes wide.

Lin Mu pressed Zheng Wei's handcuffed hand, and said to Chang E, "Why did you come back?"

"I ...... I forgot my homework, Mom...... Where are you going?" Chen Lu looked at her innocent daughter, not knowing how to explain to her, she was about to go to prison.

"Mom and uncles go to a place, Chang'e obediently go to school, okay?" Chen Lu squatted in front of her daughter and looked at her daughter's face carefully, brushing the broken hair around her ears.

"I'll go with you. After hearing this, Chang E immediately put down her schoolbag and took her mother's hand. Lin Mu looked at the mother and daughter, and he couldn't bear to take Chang'e to the police station together.

Chang E was placed in Bai Lan, and Lin Mu took Chen Lu to the interrogation room.

"I killed my daughter on the spur of the moment because of his idea of beating him. After I took care of the house that day, I put him in a back basket and was about to throw him farther away, but who knew that it was dark and I couldn't see it and fell and rolled him out, and I was afraid that people would find out, so I had to leave him there. ”

Chen Lu took the initiative to speak, "My husband fell ill when his daughter was three years old, leaving us orphans and widows. It cost all our family savings to treat him, and I didn't know what to do, so I took this detour.

But that bastard always wouldn't give me money, so I had to feed some chickens and sell them at the market. I can get by, and the villagers take good care of me. I wanted to provide for my daughter's schooling, and the future would always be fine, but who knew that he actually started the idea of my daughter, she is only nine years old!

Chen Lu was so angry that his hands trembled, and his facial muscles twitched, "The words he said were too dirty, I couldn't let him insult my daughter, no, so I killed him, I made a mistake......"

"But now there is no one to protect your daughter. ”

Chen Lu tilted her head and made a strange sound from her throat, Lin Mu knew that it was remorse, and there was nothing to do.

"Comrade, comrade policeman, I beg you, I beg you, you must place my daughter well, please don't tell her that her mother is a bad person, please let her study hard in the future and don't take a detour......" Chen Lu suddenly kowtowed to the table as she spoke, and the policeman next to her hurriedly stopped her, her forehead was already red.

"Don't worry, we'll settle her down. ”

"I really beg you, comrade policeman, tell my daughter that her mother will always protect her. Chen Lu's eyes were hazy with tears, and tears gradually blurred her vision.

After a long time, Lin Mu walked out of the interrogation room and saw Chang E eating the boxed lunch that Bai Lan bought for her. Chang E saw Lin Mu come out, and just asked softly, "When can we go home?"

"Your mother is going to do something very important, can you stay here with your brothers and sisters first?"

Chang E didn't speak, lowering her head and scribbling rice. "Mom was arrested by you, wasn't it? It was said on TV that the police were catching bad guys. ”

"Chang'e, your mother is not a bad person. ”

"Of course not," Chang'e put down the lunch box and said seriously, word by word, "She is my mother." ”

On the way to send Chang'e to the welfare home, she sat quietly in the co-pilot without crying or making a fuss. "Uncle Police is going to catch all the bad guys, right?"

Lin Mu's heart tightened, and he said softly, "Yes." ”

After arriving at the welfare home and explaining Chang E's situation to the director, Chang E reluctantly said to Lin Mu, "Uncle, will you come to see me often?"

"Yes, my uncle will come to see you when he is free. Lin Mu squatted down and took Chang E in his arms, this little girl is very sensible, but it is also very distressing.

"When can mom come pick me up?" Chang'e finally cried, and the tears that flowed down wet Lin Mu's clothes.

"When Xiao Chang'e grows up and is sensible, her mother will come back. Lin Mu wiped the tears on Chang'e's face and patted her face gently, "Be strong." ”

Chang E suddenly hugged Lin Mu and cried for a long, long time. After Lin Mu left far away, Chang E was still waving to him at the door.

As Chen Lu said, she did protect her daughter at a certain time, but it also led to another tragedy.

In this world, it is always incomprehensible and unreasonable. The unfortunate are always struggling in the abyss, desperately trying to touch the light above their heads.

Everyone has something they want to protect, which is the driving force of life and the bottom line.
