"Please, it's my money! Don't execute me! Grandma, Mom, save me! I don't want to be executed!"
With handcuffs on, Bang Geng finally broke down. He cried out for help from Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu, while at the same time, he wet his pants.
"Everyone, look! Bang Geng wet himself! Hahaha!"
A child suddenly shouted.
"Oh Bang Geng, how embarrassing! You're so old and still wetting your pants!"
Once one child started, the others joined in the mockery. The adults looked at Bang Geng with disdain as he stood there in shame.
"Get lost! You little brats, if you keep shouting, I'll tear your mouths apart!"
Jia Zhang immediately stood up to defend her grandson when she saw him being ridiculed.
"Oh! Jia Zhang, your grandson got caught stealing and scared himself so badly that he wet his pants. Are you saying he can't be teased about it? Why are you so unreasonable?"
Seeing Jia Zhang about to argue again, Captain Kui stepped in to stop her. "Alright, Jia Zhang. Bang Geng has admitted to stealing money. We need to take him back to the police station now."
After saying this, Captain Kui was about to leave with Bang Geng when Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu stepped forward to block him. "Officer, this Bang Geng is my son. The money at home belongs to him anyway. Taking money from home shouldn't be a crime, right?"
Qin Huairu was quick-witted; her question left Captain Kui silent. After all, he had never encountered a case where someone stole so much money from their own family!
The law was still not well-defined at this time, and it was indeed hard to conclude whether taking money from one's own family constituted theft.
"Qin Huairu, let's not discuss the matter of Bang Geng taking your family's money for now. But what about Yi Zhonghai? He has nothing to do with your family, right? Bang Geng also stole his money!" Captain Kui quickly thought of a response to Qin Huairu's question.
"Officer, our family has a close relationship with Old Master Yi's family. Bang Geng is now Old Master Yi's god-grandson. In the future, he will be responsible for supporting Old Master Yi and his wife in their old age. Otherwise, why would Bang Geng go to their house for money?"
"Isn't that right, Old Master Yi? It's precisely because Bang Geng knows you care for him as your god-grandson that he dared to go to your house for money."
Hearing Qin Huairu say that Bang Geng recognized him as a god-grandfather and would support him in the future made Yi Zhonghai feel delighted. When he heard Qin Huairu's question, he quickly pretended to remember something and said to Captain Kui:
"Oh dear, my memory is failing me! I’m sorry, Officer Kui. The thousand or so yuan was my own savings at the bank. I’m getting old and forgot about it. When I heard that the Jia family was robbed just now, I thought my house had been robbed too!"
Even though Captain Kui knew Yi Zhonghai was making things up, he didn't want to expose him. In that moment, he had already thought of how to handle the situation!
After discussing with Director Wang, they felt that having such a large theft case in their jurisdiction would have a negative impact. Moreover, since Bang Geng was only thirteen or fourteen years old, they thought it would be better to give such a young child a chance for education. If he could turn over a new leaf from then on, wouldn’t they have saved a child?
He said to Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, technically speaking, we should arrest Bang Geng for stealing such a large amount of money. At the very least, he would face twenty years in prison! However, considering that all the money he took belongs to your family and you as parents do not wish to pursue this matter further, we will not proceed with his arrest."
