Chapter 374: Chapter 374: Observations in the Car
His performance, although somewhat awkward, made everyone present burst into laughter.
Wu Xiaoyu turned around and waved at Ma Shengming, signaling him to calm down. He then squatted down again and asked, “Son, do you have anything else to say?”
Li the Sixth saw him squat down and quickly glanced around with the corner of his eyes. Seeing that Huang Mao was three to five meters away, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Master Wu, I’m begging you! Let me go! I can give you a million, or you can name a price. Even if I have to sell everything, I’ll get you the money!” Li the Sixth whispered.
You bastard! So you pretended to be crazy just to say this? Although I love money, I acquire it in honorable ways.
Your ill-gotten wealth through theft and evasion doesn’t interest me at all. You better stay behind bars!
Wu Xiaoyu raised his eyebrow and smiled, “Son, is that what you want to tell your father? Your father has plenty of money, no need for you to pay respects!”
With that, Wu Xiaoyu started to get up, but Li the Sixth, in panic, reached out to grab him, only to be pinned down by Wu Xiaoyu.
“Director Ma, this guy pretended to be crazy and tried to bribe me. Isn’t that an added offense?” Wu Xiaoyu released Li the Sixth’s arm and smiled at Ma Shengming.
Ma Shengming, with his rich experience in grassroots work, had seen many suspects attempt to escape punishment or seek leniency by pretending to be crazy.
Therefore, Li the Sixth’s little trick couldn’t fool him. He had only stood by out of boredom, watching the farce.
Now, Wu Xiaoyu, not tempted by money and unhesitatingly exposing Li the Sixth, made Ma Shengming admire him even more.
It’s known that young people are easily blinded by money, leading them astray to do regretful things.
“Enough! Li the Sixth, stop acting, or you’ll be sent to a mental hospital!” Ma Shengming scolded.
Li the Sixth saw that Wu Xiaoyu was truly unmoved by money and felt nothing but resentment. But he couldn’t just give up!
As long as he continues to play the fool and doesn’t cooperate with their investigation, even if they have the ledger, without his confession, the case wouldn’t be solid.
By then, he could have his wife spend money to hire good lawyers and apply for medical parole, wouldn’t that be delightful!
“Daddy… Daddy…” Li the Sixth continued to act like a mischievous child, staring blankly at Wu Xiaoyu.
Ma Shengming shook his head helplessly and ordered again, “Enough! Stop wasting time on him and bring him back to the station!”
Two officers approached Li the Sixth, handcuffed him, and dragged him into the police car.
“Xiaoyu, I’ll take care of the rest! If the case is judged, I’ll have your reward deposited into your account!” Ma Shengming smiled.
Reward? Wu Xiaoyu and the beggars behind him were stunned. Is there a reward for this?
Seeing Wu Xiaoyu’s confusion, Ma Shengming explained, “According to the provisional regulation for rewarding whistleblowers of tax evasion under the Tax Collection Law, Article 6…”
“For tax collections amounting to 1 million to less than 5 million, a reward of up to 10 thousand yuan will be given!”
Upon hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu flashed a hint of disappointment. Only ten thousand yuan? That’s a bit too little.
After having Li the Sixth escorted to the car, Ma Shengming walked up to Wu Xiaoyu, leading him to a secluded corner in the courtyard and asked in a low voice, “Xiaoyu, do you hold some grudge against him?”
Seeing the caution, Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but laugh and said, “It’s not really a grudge.”
“It’s just that last time when I bought a car, he humiliated me, and I happened to learn about his tax evasion, so I called you to report him.”
“You just need to act impartially. I don’t have any unreasonable demands, don’t worry!”
Satisfied by his straightforward response, Ma Shengming felt a weight lift from his heart, the sky becoming clear.
Last time, Wu Xiaoyu cured little Min’s ‘illness.’ Although he paid Wu Xiaoyu a substantial amount, he still felt indebted to him.
So, when he received Wu Xiaoyu’s call today, he felt somewhat troubled, afraid of using his position for personal gain.
If Wu Xiaoyu made inappropriate demands or tried to use him for revenge, how could he refuse him?
Understanding this, Ma Shengming was pleased and patted Wu Xiaoyu on the shoulder, exchanged a few pleasantries, and left with his team.
Bin and the others, seeing how friendly and respectful such an impressive figure was to Wu Xiaoyu, felt even more admiration for him and started flattering him.
Seeing that it was getting late and fearing he might miss the last bus, Wu Xiaoyu decided to leave.
Just after walking a few steps, he hurried back and asked with a smile, “You guys have heard of Super Delicious, right?”
Super Delicious is a top restaurant in the county’s dining industry, so Bin and the others nodded quickly even though they were puzzled.
“Super Delicious is run by a friend of mine. If you ever need food, you can ask for some at Super Delicious. I’ll let them know!” Wu Xiaoyu said and left.
Hearing this, Bin and the others felt warm inside, with their eyes slightly wet. Master Wu truly is a righteous man!
Although they had conflicts with him before, he didn’t kick them when they were down. Instead, he showed such care; it was truly moving.
If Master Wu ever needs anything, they would go as far as sacrificing their lives!
Wu Xiaoyu left Tong Family Lane and walked for about ten minutes before he left the urban village, then hailed a motorcycle taxi to the bus station.
Upon arriving at the bus station, it was already past six. Luckily, the last bus had not yet departed. He bought a ticket and sat behind the driver.
At this moment, the sun had set. There weren’t many passengers on the bus. Wu Xiaoyu leaned against the compartment and fell asleep.
When he woke, the bus had already stopped at Longhe Town’s bus station. The ticket lady was smiling at him.
The lady didn’t have any malicious intent, but her smile was akin to a farmer eyeing a plump sow.
Is she interested in me? Even though I’m lucky in love recently, she can’t just assign me people randomly!
“Ma’am, do you need something?” Wu Xiaoyu sat up straight and asked hesitantly.
The lady tried to reach out to touch him, but he avoided her. The lady then awkwardly smiled and said, “Young man, are you married, do you have a partner?”
Married? Partner? Indeed! Damn! Is she interested in me? Oh heavens, what have I done to deserve this?
The lady blocked Wu Xiaoyu’s way, and to get off the bus, she had to step aside. Helplessly, Wu Xiaoyu replied reluctantly, “I’m not married yet!”
Right after he finished speaking, the lady became delighted, saying excitedly, “Great! Young man, my daughter isn’t married either. Would you like to see her photo?”
Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief. Phew! She wants to introduce her daughter to me, not herself!
