When they heard the charge of manslaughter, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the middle-aged man.
Although murder and arson have long been commonplace in the apocalypse, almost everyone has done illegal things even if no human life was involved.
But the vast majority of people who have been in prison also want to hide their identities. After all, even in modern society, some rehabilitated people who have been released from prison still have colored glasses. I didn't expect this person to be so calm.
"My name is Yu Xi. My mother was insulted, so she killed someone by mistake. She was convicted of excessive defense and sentenced to two years in prison." The middle-aged man lowered his eyes and explained the matter in front of everyone's eyes. Come on.
His parents divorced when he was a teenager. Even his father's existence when he was young was in vain. He was always raised by his mother. However, his father did not change himself because of the failure of the marriage, but became even more addicted to gambling. .
Two years ago, my father ran away after running away again after running into huge debts from underground banks. After the debt collectors searched to no avail, they targeted the mother and son.
Originally, the two mother and son opened a small restaurant. Although their lives were not rich, they gradually got better and better.
Yu Xi also has a stable girlfriend and is in the stage of marriage. However, as debt collectors come to restaurants to harass them again and again, their originally peaceful life is turned into a mess.
The mother originally planned to settle the matter by paying off the debt, but the interest from the underground bank had more than doubled the principal. Even after many low-key discussions, she refused to give in. Relying on Yu Xi's mother and son being easy to talk to, the interest was even higher. It's getting bigger and bigger.
Angry, Yu Xi decided to call the police for help, and the police began to investigate the bank's illegal money lending. However, due to the time required for investigation and evidence collection, the harassment of debt collectors could not be stopped for a while.
Unexpectedly, the boss of the underground bank found out about the police investigation. In anger, he blocked Yu Xi's mother in the store on the day when he and his fiancée went out to take wedding photos.
During this period, the debt collectors not only insulted her with unpleasant and humiliating words, but also abused her elderly mother with various bad behaviors.
They shaved her hair, deliberately flicked cigarette ashes into her face, and even made her kneel on the ground to lick clean the debt collector's shoes.
Because the iron gate was closed in advance, regular customers were confused, and the laughter of different men could be heard in the store, so regular customers called Xiang Yuxi to inquire about the situation.
After realizing something was wrong, Yu Xi immediately dropped everything and rushed back to the store. When Yu Xi arrived, he immediately called the police outside the store and rushed into the store alone to rescue his mother.
But two fists are no match for four hands, let alone Yu Xi, an honest man. As soon as he entered the store, he was also controlled by debt collectors. He even witnessed the debt collectors even taking off his pants, exposing his private parts, and insulting his mother.
When Yu Xi saw his mother being humiliated, he became angry and violent, and he immediately threw away the debt collector who was suppressing him.
When the debt collectors saw this, they let go of Yu Xi's mother. The four of them punched and kicked Yu Xi, who resisted. When her mother tried to stop her, she was pushed to the ground and fell unconscious.
In the chaos, Yu Xi saw her mother lying in a pool of blood. In desperation, she found a sharp knife from the kitchen table and stabbed her randomly, causing four debt collectors to be stabbed.
When the police arrived, they took Yu Xi under control. One of them died due to hemorrhagic shock, the other two were seriously injured, and one was slightly injured.
Yu Xi was originally convicted of intentional injury and sentenced to life imprisonment.
However, the case caused a sensation in the city, and a second trial was launched amid public opinion. After the defense of the lawyer, the verdict was changed to self-defense and excessive defense. Finally, due to good behavior in prison, he was released at the beginning of this year.
"Well, if you don't mind that I am a murderer, I won't live here. Don't affect other residents." Yu Xi lowered his head and said.
The people present at Yu Xi’s case were also very impressed. Except for the reborn Chen Yuanyuan and Shen Yichen, they really had no impression after such a long time, but they also felt very angry after listening to it.
"I don't think it will affect you, but the decision-making power is still in your hands." Chen Yuanyuan looked at several household representatives present.
"I have no objection," said the representative from Building 3.
Yu Yanqun looked at the others and didn't have any special opinions, so she agreed to Yu Xi's stay.
Yu Xi thanked everyone in the room again and again, and her tears kept flowing.
"What about Yu Xi, where are your fiancée and mother?" Chen Yuanyuan asked.
"I let them go first, because I was afraid that my mother would feel uncomfortable if I mentioned these things." Yu Xi patted his head and smiled honestly.
During the two years he was imprisoned, his fiancée had been taking care of his mother. He had just made a plan in his mind that if there was no room for him here, he would search for supplies outside to feed them.
Unexpectedly, the residents of Jinxiu Garden would tolerate him, who had killed someone before. Yu Xi was grateful from the bottom of his heart at this moment.
After the matter was done, Yu Yanqun and others went to Building 6 to register for the new residents to be allocated rooms. It was also a big event for more than 190 residents to move into Building 6. If they didn't record it, they would be afraid that something would happen to Building 5 again. People are looking for trouble.
Chen Yuanyuan and Shen Yichen sent five police officers outside the community.
"In terms of government supplies, we will be responsible for contacting the supplies team and transferring supplies for residents registered here to Jinxiu Garden." Deputy Director Lin said.
"Thank you, this is a small gift for you brothers and sisters." Shen Yichen asked Chen Yuanyuan to hand the bag to a police officer.
"No, no, we can't accept it." Seeing Deputy Director Lin shake his head, the police officer quickly refused.
"It's not anything expensive, just the coffee you just drank. You work hard and often stay up all night, so just accept it." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"Thank you then." After Deputy Lin said, the police officer took the bag away.
"We will also send people to Wanli Haoting to investigate, but with the current situation in Xiangcheng, there is nothing we can do if no one is killed," Captain Zhao said.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Captain Zhao." Shen Yichen said.
"That's right." Captain Zhao nodded.
"If someone comes over there to harass you, please contact us in time. Of course, Mr. Shen, you also have the authority to carry out emergency response work. We will just solve the follow-up problems." Deputy Director Lin said.
After they said goodbye, Shen Yichen and Chen Yuanyuan watched the police car drive away in the snow.
"It's really yours. A deputy director came within a few hours of making a phone call." Chen Yuanyuan looked at Shen Yichen and said.
"I'll just ask Lao Jin to call anyone to do the work. I never knew he was so capable." Shen Yichen shrugged and said helplessly.
The sun had already set, and the two of them returned to Building 2 side by side and took a look at the bustling Building 6 opposite.
There were a few adults watching the fun outside Building No. 6. They didn't want to join in the fun, so they took the stairs back to the twelfth floor.
But there is a barbecue waiting for them to go home!
