Chapter 111: Where Justice Can’t Reach, There’s Mom
Chapter 111
He Linpeng's veins bulged as he gritted his teeth in anger.
He wanted to grab the officer's shoulders and demand answers, but upon seeing the uniform, he barely managed to suppress the urge to lash out.
"I didn't do this! Why should I clean it up?"
"Whoever made the mess should clean it!"
The officer replied, "Mr. He, this is right outside your door. If you don't mind the stench, you can just leave it there."
"If we catch the culprit, we'll let you know. How you deal with them after that is between you two."
He watched as the officer finished taking notes and turned to leave.
Neighbors from the floors above and below gathered on their balconies to watch, their faces bearing indecipherable smirks.
He Linpeng was so furious he started jumping up and down, shouting at the top of his lungs, "How uncivilized! How immoral! Nine years of compulsory education, and this is what we get? What kind of person does this?"
A neighbor from upstairs called out, "Listen, Mr. He, it's starting to smell up here. You'd better clean it up soon, or it'll dry and be even harder to remove. You might end up having to scrape it off with your bare hands..."
The next day.
A shrill ring woke He Linpeng from his slumber.
He had spent three hours cleaning up the mess outside his door yesterday!
For three whole hours, he'd nearly passed out from the stench several times!
Afterward, he couldn't even bring himself to eat dinner. He scrubbed himself raw in the shower, but even after he got out, the smell of excrement still clung to him.
No matter how many times he washed with laundry detergent, shower gel, or soap—dozens of times—the odor wouldn't go away.
And now, at this very moment!
Ring, ring, ring—
The phone rang. It was his boss.
"Ugh, boss," He Linpeng answered, still nauseous from yesterday's ordeal.
"He Linpeng, come to the office and clear out your things. You're fired!" His boss's tone was icy and stern.
He Linpeng replied calmly, "Boss, if you're firing me, you'll have to pay severance. I've worked for the company for so many years, so the compensation—"
His boss was ready to explode with anger.
He cut He Linpeng off, "He Linpeng, you have the nerve to come back to work? Lin Lin jumped off a building because of your lies. Don't you feel any guilt?"
"The company is now affected by your mess. Considering your years of service, I can give you an extra month's salary, but don't even think about any other compensation."
He Linpeng sneered, his tone threatening, "Boss, that's not what labor law says. You should compensate me based on my years of service."
"If you insist on this, I'll have to report you to the labor bureau."
But his boss remained firm, even daring him to go ahead and file a complaint.
He Linpeng's hands trembled with rage.
He hung up the phone and began searching his cabinet for his contract, preparing to gather materials for a trip to the labor bureau.
As he left the residential complex.
He Linpeng, head down, sent a voice message to his wife, not noticing that the green light had turned red.
"Stay at your mother's place with the kid for a few more days. I'll come pick you up once I've sorted things out here."
"Yes, yes, I promise. I won't go looking for anyone else again. That bitch only went after me because I'm a manager with money. She seduced me into bed."
"Don't worry, what can that old hag do to me? She has to cough up the 200,000 yuan! It's her fault for raising such a materialistic, gold-digging daughter. If she doesn't pay, I'll—"
"Beep..."
"Screech..."
A small delivery truck on the pedestrian crossing let out a sharp honk and the sound of screeching brakes.
Followed by a loud thud!
Boom—
He Linpeng was violently thrown into the air!
The truck's wheels crushed his legs into a bloody pulp!
He lay on the ground, covered in blood, passing out from the pain. But before he closed his eyes, he seemed to see... to see a woman sitting in the driver's seat!
It was!
Lin Lin's mother!
He Linpeng's eyes widened, his mouth full of blood, gurgling as it spilled out.
He stared intently at the woman in the truck, who looked at him with a crazed expression, laughing until tears streamed down her face. "Red light, hahaha..."
"I want you to lose everything, to suffer and linger, wishing you were dead!"
"My darling, did you see? Where justice can't reach, your mother can."
"Mommy will always love you."
