After a heavy snowfall, it really entered the winter, as soon as school was out in the afternoon, Li Haoyu called and said that he and Cheng Jiahui were going to the house of Lido Jiayuan to watch a movie, I knew that Zhou Wei had to force them to study and the effect would not be good, so I usually allowed them to play games, watch TV or take them out to watch movies on Zhou Wei. Since they found out that I have a lot of movie CDs in the house of Lido Garden, I often go to the Zhou Wei Cinema and there are no good movies, so they will go to the house of Lido Garden to watch movies, so that it does not affect my parents to watch TV. I also like that they have this habit, which is more comfortable than watching them play games on the computer. Because I had to work overtime, I called Cheng Shaojie and asked him to come over early and cook the meals for the children.

After sending Zheng Qiuping, a crying woman in the dark, out of the office, I stood in front of the window and watched the snow on the ground under the street lamp being blown on the ground by the cold wind, and I was irritable and depressed.

Zheng Qiuping's son Zhang Qiuyang was found dead in the backyard of his factory after his family went missing for more than a week. He had a suicide note and a bottle of pesticide beside him, in which he said that he owed more than one million dollars to others and couldn't afford to pay it back, and he was sorry for his father and mother, so they should not have raised his son. In the suicide note, he didn't say who he owed, nor did he say why he owed so much money. But we all know in our hearts why he owes so much money, half a year ago his mother Zheng Qiuping came to report that his more than 400,000 family property was defrauded by his son, when we investigated the case, no matter how we asked Zhang Qiuyang, he didn't say that he owed money to Hei Laosan because of gambling. Now that he had ended his life in this way, he still didn't say why he had embarked on this dead end, only said sorry. He is only twenty-six years old, and he himself is a hundred years old, and a word of sorry will put away the hard work of his parents for more than 20 years!

I have been a criminal police officer for so many years, and the most hated and helpless are those who gamble and take drugs. For the vast majority of them, they can only be liberated by sinking in it until they die, and this vice not only leads them into the abyss from which they will never recover, but often their relatives fall into this black hole with them, just like this Zhang Qiuyang, he chose to die, his mother cried for a day, his father seemed to have aged more than ten years in just a few hours, and their hard work for more than 20 years was wasted in this way, and we can only watch this happen and be helpless.

Gao Jianguo walked into my office and said, "You've been up all day, clean up and go back to rest!" ”

I put the materials at hand and asked, "Is this the end of this?" ”

"So what? The last time we investigated Zhang Qiuyang, no matter how we asked him, he refused to say that he borrowed money to participate in gambling, and this time it was the same, the suicide note only said that he owed money to others, but did not say who he owed money, why he owed money, it is really forgivable to do sin, and he can't live if he does sin."

"It must have been the gambling debts of those who put money in the casino," I said angrily

"We know in our hearts what can we do, Zhang Qiuyang did not leave a relevant word, did not grasp the current situation, did not have a live video, with the current requirements of handling the case, such a case cannot be handled at all."

I know that Gao Jianguo is telling the truth, but I am feeling more and more now, "I sometimes really don't understand why these young people now, they are not even afraid of death but dare not stand up to face their mistakes and face the expectations of their parents."

While he was talking, Zheng Duo came in from outside, Gao Jianguo and I both looked at him with some surprise, he hadn't gone back so late, and he turned here I don't know what happened? At this time, most of his arrivals are night owls entering the house.

"Nothing, right?" I asked, it was always more bad than good for him to come to the criminal police team so late.

He stood at the door and looked back and forth between me and Gao Jianguo, hesitated for a while, glanced at Gao Jianguo and said, "The town police station has just seized a gambling case, and among the arrested gambling participants is your Cheng Shaojie."

As soon as I heard this, I immediately felt that my face could not be hanged, and a wave of anger rose from the bottom of my heart, I never felt shameless because of his identity, but his behavior made me feel that I had lost face in front of everyone, and those who knew me well knew that I hated gambling and never played cards and mahjong.

I knew that the undisguised anger and humiliation on my face made the two men present not know what to say, Gao Jianguo's eyes turned around me and Zheng Duo without saying a word, he knew that because of my close personal relationship with Zheng Duo, Zheng Duo would come to sue me about this, and the others would rather pretend not to know to avoid making me lose face.

Zheng Duo and I stood speechless for a while, and Zheng Duo said: "The police who handled the case said that he was just a gambling person, and at most it was just a public security punishment, let him go back first after taking the materials, and wait for the police station to deal with it slowly, which is not a big deal."

"It's not a big deal, why did you come to sue me specifically?" I looked at Zheng Duo and said unceremoniously.

Zheng Duo didn't expect me to speak like this, and he stared at me with hatred for a long time: "Lin Yi, which tendon did you make the wrong match, you found an inexplicable man to be your husband, I knew that I was marrying such a man now, why did you divorce Li Jiaming in the first place, what you did is simply incredible, who is that Cheng Shaojie?" ”

Listening to Zheng Duo's anger, I felt that I was gradually able to control my feelings, I sat down in my chair and let out a deep sigh and said, "You don't care about my business."

Zheng Duo snorted angrily and said, "You think I want to take care of such a thing as you? I really don't know what to do, so do whatever you want! Then he turned around and left.

When he walked out of the door, he turned around and said, "You call Director Wang of the town police station, and quickly bring the people back first!" Don't stay at the police station anymore, everyone in the bureau will know about it tomorrow."

I know that the people in the police station are probably taking turns to visit Cheng Shaojie who is being held in the iron fence, and they have long been curious about what Lin is still the legendary peasant husband like! This time it's a real face. The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, I looked up and thought for a while, and said, "I don't call, you tell Director Wang that the person will be locked in the detention room first, and how to deal with it will be said tomorrow", after that, I paused and said: "No, let them deal with it at the top level, detain them for 15 days, and fine them 3,000 yuan."

Zheng Duo stood at the door and looked at me, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a mocking smile and said, "Okay, it's really worthy of Lin Yi", and then turned around and left.

I sat dejectedly, covering my face with my hands, at this moment I had a kind of exhausting burnout, since I decided to get married, I just went all the way, never stopped to look at life and examine my heart, I deliberately avoided everyone's questioning eyes, including Yu Xinhui, Jiang Xinya, including Zheng Duo, Qiao Qidong. I only need three years, and I want to use three years of broken life to wash away the past, and I also want to use these three years to lead my life to another road. I was taking a desperate gamble to rebuild my future life, and today I stopped for the first time and asked myself, "Am I really going to lose this game?" ”

Back at Lido Family Garden, Li Haoyu and Cheng Jiahui were still watching a movie, and when they saw me entering the house, Li Haoyu shouted: "Mom, why did you come back?" We're all going to starve."

"Why haven't you eaten so late?"

Cheng Jiahui said: "Dad, I bought two bags of dumplings and put them down, saying that if we have something to do, let's make dumplings to eat, and when we are hungry and think about going to the dumplings, the dumplings have melted and stuck together and can't be eaten."

I went to the kitchen and saw that the two bags of dumplings had melted and stuck together on the kitchen cabinet, because we basically don't live in this house, so there is no more food in the house except for instant noodles and ham.

I cooked two packets of instant noodles with ham sausages and mustard vegetables, and put the two packets of dumplings stuck together in a basin, beat the eggs, stirred them well, and spread them into small meatloaf for the two children to eat. Li Haoyu saw that the glued dumplings had turned into delicious small meatloaf, and he was happy to eat, and said while eating: "Mom, you are so amazing, no matter what comes to your hands, it becomes a delicacy."

I didn't say anything, just smiled shallowly, reached out and patted Li Haoyu's head, Cheng Jiahui asked, "Auntie, aren't you eating?" ”

"I'm not hungry," I said.

"You're all right, are you? I don't think you're quite right today," Cheng Jiahui asked with a questioning look.

"It's just that you're not very happy today, but I haven't seen you lose your temper, it's not because of me," Li Haoyu said while eating.

I didn't make a sound, and seeing that the two children had almost eaten, I looked at Cheng Jiahui and said, "Your father was arrested by the police station for gambling outside."

The two children looked at me in surprise, Li Haoyu looked at me and then looked at Cheng Jiahui sideways, Cheng Jiahui's eyes gradually changed from surprise to gloomy, and then lowered his eyes to look at his bowl, Li Haoyu looked at Cheng Jiahui and then looked at me and asked, "Mom, what should I do, can you let the people from the police station release him?" ”

I looked at Cheng Jiahui and asked, "Jiahui, what do you say?" ”

Cheng Jiahui tilted his head slightly sideways and looked at the bowl in front of him and was silent. Seeing that he didn't speak, I paused for a moment and said, "I'm going to keep him in the detention center, and whoever does something wrong should be punished." You are adults now, I have something to say in front, whether it is your father or you, you are absolutely not allowed to be contaminated with gambling, drug addiction and other vices, our family has violated the law, I will not only intercede, I will also ask for severe punishment, do you hear? ”

Li Haoyu's dissatisfied eyes glanced at my face, and he whispered: "I know, I won't gamble or take drugs."

Cheng Jiahui closed his lips tightly for a while before he hated: "Only he would do that kind of humiliating thing."

I looked at Cheng Jiahui quietly, he didn't mind my father being arrested as I expected, but the hatred in his voice shocked me
