Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Chapter 712 Persuading He Yongshun

Lu Yao was furious, but when he saw He Yongshun risking his life to protect his wife and daughter, he couldn't help but admire him.

Lu Yao respects tough guys.

Even if you are a ruthless killer, if you can think of your family first when your life is threatened, instead of trying to escape and beg for mercy, then you are a man with a warm heart.

He Qian didn't run away.

Hurry up and pull Lu Yao over:

"Sir, please stop hitting him! He's my father!"

Although He Qian is a few years older than Lu Yao, Lu Yao's imposing presence makes it natural for her to call him "Big Brother".

I feel that calling someone that is more respectful.

Gao Lanying scrambled over to Lu Yao and grabbed his hand:

"Kid, calm down, this is my old man."

Then he slapped He Yongshun repeatedly.

"You damned old bastard! That kid treated my illness and helped Xiaoqian fight off those thugs, and instead of thanking them, you come in and pull out a knife? Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

Although he was cursing, he still hoped that Lu Yao would forgive him as soon as possible.

He Yongshun was a little confused, looking at Lu Yao:

"You...are you helping them?"

Lu Yao naturally wouldn't actually kill him.

However, judging from his impulsive attempt to stab himself, I knew my earlier deduction was correct.

This little old man is definitely not an ordinary person.

He released He Yongshun and stood up.

He took the knife and put it into his belt.

Although they managed to subdue He Yongshun, they were still drenched in a cold sweat.

That stab was so sudden. If I had reacted even a fraction of a second slower, I probably would have shit for sure.

He helped Gao Lanying up.

"Auntie, don't worry."

Then he called to He Guangshun, who was blushing and trying to get up:

"Come out here, I have something to say to you."

He Guangshun, having lost his chance, was no longer a hero and lowered his head, ready to follow them out.

Startled, He Qian quickly stepped aside to block him, pleading with Lu Yao through her tears:

"Brother, don't go out. Just talk inside. I'm afraid you'll fight."

Lu Yao smiled, took the dagger from his waist and handed it to He Qian:

"Don't worry, we won't fight."

Then he pushed her by the shoulder and moved her aside.

He went outside.

He Yongshun also said to his wife and daughters:

"Don't come out, I'll talk to him and everything will be fine."

Both women were honest and simple-minded, and although they were worried, they didn't dare to come out.

They all pressed their faces against the windows, looking out.

Seeing that Lu Yao and He Yongshun stopped at the street corner, I could no longer hear them talking, but they showed no intention of fighting anymore.

Lu Yao went outside to check that no one was around before asking He Yongshun:

"Tell me, why did you do this?"

He Yongshun quickly explained, "I thought you were bullying the mother and daughter, so I hit them. I'm sorry. I should thank you."

Lu Yao sneered: "Stop pretending. I'm not talking about you stabbing me. Now that I've found your house, I know everything. So, tell me, why?"

He Yongshun was taken aback.

It seems that Lu Yao did come prepared.

Looking at the Mauser pistol slung across his shoulder, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Although the exchange lasted only a few seconds, he had already realized that he and this young man were not on the same level in terms of strength and speed.

To resist would surely mean certain death.

However, it's unclear how much Lu Yao actually knows.

If I deny it now, I'm afraid he'll turn on me.

However, he was unwilling to explain himself clearly just like that.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Yao spoke again:

"Speak, the tape, the letter, Chairman Yuan, Sun Wenju... If you lied about even one thing, you won't tell me."

Then don't blame me for being impolite. But if you tell me, not only will I not make things difficult for your wife and daughter, I'll even help you sort out your son's matter.

Although He Yongshun was honest by nature, he was, after all, forged in the den of bandits.

How could we possibly say everything based on just a few words from Lu Yao?

Blushing, she said, "I... I saw you had gold bars, so I wanted some..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Yao interrupted:

"If you lie, you lose credibility. We won't be able to work together anymore."

He Yongshun was sweating profusely.

The title of model worker he has held for so many years is not entirely an act; he is a person who values ​​integrity.

After hearing Lu Yao's words, he also weighed the pros and cons.

I won't say anything, but today's hurdle is going to be tough.

Don't be fooled by Lu Yao's amiable demeanor now; he could easily turn on you and have you arrested.

They are militia members and are familiar with the Public Security Bureau.

It's just a matter of saying one thing to yourself.

So how can I protect myself now?

He mentioned the tape, and Sun Wenju and the old chairman naturally knew everything, so lying would be pointless.

But what are the consequences of telling the truth?

He had killed someone, but he was a bandit.

Once they open their mouths, even if they don't die, they'll probably never get out.

His lips trembled, and he was struggling with an extremely intense internal conflict.

Lu Yao added:

"If you have any difficulties, just tell me. I don't necessarily have to follow the rules exactly. I can make an exception for you."

"real?"

He Guangshun looked into Lu Yao's eyes as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.

Lu Yao nodded: "Don't worry, you're not my target. I don't need to kill you. As long as you tell me the truth, I guarantee you'll be fine."

He Guangshun opened his mouth, but in the end shook his head:

"It was a misunderstanding that I stabbed you with a knife, Company Commander Lu, arrest me."

"It was a misunderstanding that I stabbed you with a knife, Company Commander Lu, arrest me."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hands, waiting to be handcuffed.

Lu Yao laughed: "Fine, so you're going to play the tough guy with me, huh? Come on, come with me."

In the past, I would just push my own bike and walk away.

He Guangshun asked a question:

"Where...where to?"

"I'm taking you to the police station. Sun Wenju's case is inextricably linked to you. Don't think you can control me just because you have a cassette tape."

He Guangshun quickly grabbed Lu Yao's bicycle seat:

"Young man, I know you are a hero, but actually... I had no choice."

Lu Yao glared at him: "I've already said, whether you consider me a friend or an enemy is up to you."

Judging from his personality, Lu Yao knew he wasn't the mastermind; he must have been manipulated.

So they resorted to both threats and inducements to get him to tell the truth:

"If you don't trust me, I'll take you to see your son now. You'll see if I'm capable of protecting him."

Upon hearing that he could see his son, He Yongshun quickly expressed his gratitude, told his wife and daughters, and then immediately left with Lu Yao.

Lu Yao took him to Mei Ping and told him not to say anything more.

He told Meiping that this was He Kui's father and that he wanted to meet his son.

Mei Ping is now using Lu Yao to get close to Shi Mengyi in order to solve the case, and Shi Mengyi will naturally listen to what Lu Yao says.

He immediately agreed to let He Yongshun meet with He Kui.

Give the father and son ten minutes to meet.

When He Yongshun saw that Lu Yao was so powerful that he could get him to see his son who had been falsely accused of murder with just a few words, he believed him.

When Lu Yao took him aside again, He Yongshun cried.

He knew that once he opened his mouth, his life would be ruined, and his peaceful days would be gone forever.

But there's no other way; if we don't speak up, life won't get any better.

Follow Lu Yao out and find a deserted alley.

Lu Yao lit a cigarette and handed it to him:

"Speak."
