Zhang Ergou's face turned pale and he didn't know what to do. He felt that he had disguised himself well enough. Why could Li Baiyi still show it off? Could it be that this Li Baiyi was his nemesis.
Now that so much evidence points to him, what can he do even if he doesn't want to plead guilty and commit suicide?
The police officers present were also frightened and ashamed for a while. They knew that Li Baiyi had taken office as a new official, and they originally wanted to leave a good impression on Li Baiyi and do a good job.
Unexpectedly, he was rescued by Li Baiyi and almost solved the unresolved case.
Fortunately, the case was eventually solved, and they would not let a criminal go because of their own negligence. This was all because of Li Baiyi's presence.
Li Baiyi looked at Zhang Ergou's devastated look, and he didn't look like a vicious person like Li Haonan. He suspected that there was something hidden in it. After thinking about it, he asked.
"Why did you kill your wife? Is it because the spoils were not shared equally between you and your wife?"
When the people around him heard the words, they immediately pricked up their ears and listened, and everyone listened very hard.
Li Baiyi asked the arrester to send people to invite the people out. After all, it involved the case of abducting women and children, and it could not be known to outsiders, lest it spread to Li Haonan's ears.
After the policemen invited all the people out, Li Baiyi looked at Zhang Ergou again.
"It was inconvenient because there were so many people just now, you can say that now."
Zhang Ergou raised his head with a puzzled look on his face: "Sir, what are you talking about? Why can't this villain understand what you are talking about? What is the division of spoils?"
Li Baiyi's face immediately became serious: "Of course it's the money you earned from abducting women and children. Tell me how you divided the money."
Zhang Ergou quickly begged for mercy: "Sir, please forgive me, what are you talking about? I have never done this before, and I will not dare to do it in the future."
"Did my wife do something bad before? I don't know about it at all."
Zhang Ergou looked very scared and did not look like an insider at all, which made Li Baiyi couldn't help but doubt his guess.
The catcher on the side immediately scolded: "How dare you lie in front of Mr. Li? I will make you look good after Mr. Li finds out."
Zhang Ergou shook his head quickly and said: "My lord, the villain really didn't lie. The villain really didn't know anything. Did my wife do something shameful? Please tell the villain."
Li Baiyi shook his head and said angrily, "What she did was kidnapping women and children. She is probably the member of the gang responsible for coaxing women and children into letting them relax their vigilance."
Zhang Ergou turned pale with fright and said, "Sir, she actually did such a heartless thing. I would never dare to do such a thing with her."
Li Baiyi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Of course I know you don't dare to do such a thing. I just want to ask you, have you been with your wife for so long, haven't you noticed anything unusual about her?"
Zhang Ergou thought for a while and said with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "Sir, my wife has been married to the villain for several years. The first year was fine. She did her job honestly and gave birth to two sons to the villain one after another."
"But then I couldn't do it anymore. I started to make plans to go out to do business. Sometimes I couldn't even take care of my children."
"The villain talked to her at that time, and they had a big argument later, but it still didn't work, but then she started to put money into the villain's hand."
"Although the amount is not much, it is enough for our small family to improve their lives and live a better life."
"The villain looked at the amount of money she gave her and asked her what kind of business she was doing that could earn so much money. She didn't tell her. If she asked too many questions, she would get angry with the villain."
"The villain knows that nothing will come out of the question, so he simply doesn't ask. As long as he can take good care of the two children, the money she gave him has also reduced a lot of pressure on the villain."
Li Baiyi couldn't help but sneered. Zhang Ergou seemed to have accepted this matter. No matter what tricks his wife was doing outside, he didn't care.
"You kid is quite tolerant. You don't doubt that she has something to do to you or does anything illegal outside."
Hearing this, Zhang Ergou looked a little embarrassed and said, "Sir, I did have suspicions at the time, but I had no way to investigate. I have no education and don't understand anything."
"Besides, I have to take care of two children, so I don't have time to care about her."
Li Baiyi nodded: "I see, but you don't know. There are people you know who may have heard about it. They didn't reveal anything to you."
Zhang Ergou nodded and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Sir, I did tell the villain. Some people said that my wife behaved intimately with other men outside and seemed more like a family than me."
"The villain was very angry at the time and felt that his life was really worthless, so the villain took advantage of his wife's return home to ask her what she was doing outside and whether she was stealing from others."
"I originally thought that my wife would admit it at the time, and then the two of us were alone, and we broke up. I didn't expect that she wouldn't admit it at all."
"Since she doesn't admit it, I can't expose her, so I just come here."
Li Baiyi couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this: "You just recognized it like this, this turtle shell is thick enough."
This Ergou looks like a strong banker guy, but why is he so cowardly when encountering this kind of thing?
Zhang Ergou sighed and said: "Returning to the adults, the villain is also forced to have no choice. If there were other choices, the villain would not be so humble."
"The villain didn't know how to deal with it at the time. He just wanted to return to his original life, so he pretended not to know anything and believed her. For the sake of my two children, I have to endure it."
"Then what happened later? Did your wife change her ways?" Li Baiyi said curiously.
"Sir, if she could really change her ways, would what happened today happen again?"
"Although she didn't admit it at the time and the villain couldn't investigate her, in this big world, there are always people who the villain knows who can meet her and tell the villain what she did."
"What those people said was unbearable, and I could only listen with a smile on my face."
"However, although the villain did not attack my wife, the anger in his heart is getting bigger and bigger. The villain feels that if he can't get an answer again, he will be completely ignited."
"Finally last night, the villain asked her again. I thought she would refuse to admit it as usual."
Li Baiyi interrupted at this time: "Is she admitting it? Then the relationship between you and your husband will come to an end."
Zhang Ergou sighed: "Yes, sir, she shamelessly admitted it."
