Chapter 138 Just Your Life

The door of the bungalow was closed tightly. A few incense sticks were lit in front of the door, with some fruits as offerings next to it, and ashes from burnt paper money on the ground.

Li Congzhe took out the key from his pocket, but the key had melted into other keys in the previous fire.

Li Congzhe simply grabbed the iron lock on the door, and after a while, the iron lock melted into a pool of molten iron.

Li Congzhe pushed the door open and walked in. The furnishings in the house were still so familiar, just as they were when he left ten years ago.

Li Congzhe walked into his mother's bedroom, and sure enough, the familiar figure was no longer there.

The huge grief and fatigue from the past few days poured in, and Li Congzhe could no longer hold on and fainted!

When Li Congzhe woke up again, he was already in a clean and tidy ward, and Wang Zhiyong was standing beside him, looking at him with concern.

"Councilor Li, I'm in deep sorrow! I've sent the police to arrest Wang Hu, and I'm going to charge him with manslaughter!"

"I am also very sad about your mother's experience! She has always been respected in our Yumen County, but I never thought she would suffer such a misfortune!"

Li Congzhe sat up, pulled out the needle from his body, and then walked out of the ward without looking back.

Wang Zhiyong hurriedly followed, "Councilman Li, where are you going? You haven't recovered yet! The doctor said you need to continue to rest!"

Li Congzhe turned his head and glanced at Wang Zhiyong. "You don't have to follow me. I know my own body very well! Besides, I used to be a prosecutor!"

After hearing Li Congzhe's last sentence, Wang Zhiyong paused and the concern on his face turned into coldness.

After Li Congzhe left, Wang Zhiyong immediately took out his phone.

As soon as the call was connected, he started to curse: "You really know how to make trouble for me! Have you dealt with the matter cleanly?"

Wang Hu's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Don't worry, Second Uncle. I have cleared the evidence and I have also greeted the person! He is just a congressman from another place. I believe these unruly people dare not go against us!"

Wang Zhiyong's expression improved after hearing this, but his words were still full of reproach. "Look at you, a woman in her sixties, why are you arguing with her? And don't you know that her son is a member of parliament?"

Wang Hu's voice of defense came immediately, "The news said that almost everyone in Gukou City died, even the mayor died. How did I know that Li Congzhe was so lucky!"

"What can I say to you? Anyway, don't demolish the houses on that street yet. Wait until Li Congzhe leaves!" Wang Zhiyong said angrily.

"I know! I know!"

After Li Congzhe walked out of the hospital, he returned to his old house again.

However, as soon as he approached the old house, he found someone following him secretly, which proved that his intuition was correct and his mother's death should not be a simple accident!

When I arrived at the door, the incense, candles and offerings that I saw yesterday were gone. It was obvious that someone had cleaned the place.

Li Congzhe knew his mother's character, and what Wang Hu said about helping to maintain order among the refugees was indeed something his mother would do.

But a mother should do more than that!
Li Congzhe wanted to ask his neighbors for clarification, but he found that almost all the houses on the surrounding street were vacated!

This was unusual, so Li Congzhe found a nearby store, bought a bottle of water, and asked the store owner: "Why is Wanshun Street completely empty?"

The boss replied as he gave the change: "This isn't demolition! The county wants to build a commercial street, and they've been planning to demolish the house for a long time!"

"It's just that many people were unwilling to move before, but then the epidemic came and several households on Wanshun Street became ill. Rumor has it that it was because of bad feng shui, so the remaining residents all moved!"

Demolition? The keen sense of smell he had as an independent prosecutor came back to him, and Li Congzhe instinctively felt that this matter was not simple.

"Mrs. Yu from Wanshun's family, does the boss know her?"

Li Congzhe's mother's surname was Yu, and he wanted to try to get something out of his boss.

But when the boss heard the words "Old Lady Yu", his face immediately changed and he waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "I don't know her! I don't know her! Don't ask me!"

Li Congzhe nodded, took the change and left.

But I had already made up my mind. If the shop owner hadn’t been warned, he definitely wouldn’t have been so scared!

Since someone is deliberately covering it up, the person who did this might be the local boss who is in charge of the demolition. It is simply a pipe dream for Li Congzhe, a wanderer who has been away from home for many years, to obtain enough solid evidence by his own efforts.

However, Li Congzhe is no longer the prosecutor he used to be. He is not even prepared to step down as a figurehead congressman who has lost his voters.

After years of hard work, Li Congzhe has seen through the laws of how this society works, but his mother's teachings have made him always maintain his bottom line. He also fantasizes about changing this society by climbing up to a high position step by step.

But a previous fire completely burned Li Congzhe's hopes, but it also completely cut off the shackles in Li Congzhe's heart!
Now that his mother has died, Li Congzhe has completely lost his restraints. The fire in his heart is even stronger, and he wants to burn down the entire society.

And this spark first ignited in my hometown, this small county called Yumen!
The law is nothing more than a tool for the ruling class to maintain its rule. Naturally, it cannot become a dogma that binds Li Congzhe at this moment.

Li Congzhe asked passers-by about the location of the police station, and then went straight to the Yumen County Police Station.

All of this was seen by those who were secretly observing Li Congzhe, so Wang Zhiyong soon received the information.

Wang Hu had no choice but to drive from his villa to the police station and move into the detention room before Li Congzhe.

"Thank you for your visit, Councillor Li. I apologize for not welcoming you in person!" The police chief of Yumen County did a good job on the surface and welcomed Li Congzhe into the police station with a flattering face.

"Is Councillor Li here to investigate the murderer who accidentally killed your mother?"

"Manslaughter by mistake?" Li Congzhe glanced at the police chief indifferently, which made the other party tremble with fear.

Li Congzhe ignored him and walked straight to the detention room.

As soon as Wang Hu saw Li Congzhe appear, he immediately knelt down in front of Li Congzhe and began to scold himself.

Wang Hu’s acting skills are really good, especially that expression of deep regret. Anyone who sees it can’t help but feel a bit of sympathy for him.

But Li Congzhe was not moved at all, he just smiled contemptuously, "I don't need to know what happened, I just need to know that you killed my mother."

"Then...what do you want?" Wang Hu looked up at Li Congzhe and was suddenly stunned.

Li Congzhe snorted coldly and smashed the glass window beside him with a punch!

"Clap!"

Accompanied by the sound of breaking glass, Wang Hu's eyes suddenly widened. He didn't expect that Li Congzhe would dare to smash the glass of the police station with his fist!
This is a bit too bold!

But then Wang Hu felt the chill penetrating into his bones.

Li Congzhe's right arm was covered with bulging veins and faintly blood-red veins. It looked extremely scary, like a bunch of hideous blood vessels!
Li Congzhe's cold voice rang out, "I only want your life!"
