Carrying a Jurassic on me-Chapter 1312 - 640 Call Boss Yan

Some things, if you think about them carefully, are really quite puzzling, like how quickly gossip spreads in the countryside.

When the police car brought the live thief back to the station, it’s estimated that half of the people at the market knew the news already. And as the marketgoers dispersed, the news was spreading rapidly in all directions.

A lot of people were quite concerned about this news. If it had been a fight that resulted in death, the level of interest wouldn’t have been so high. But because the deceased was a thief, it attracted extra attention.

In the eyes of many, this matter was truly relevant to everyone.

There’s a saying, "One only sees the thief enjoying the spoils, never the thief taking the beatings." The meaning is that some people see the thief living an easy life without work, indulging in luxuries, and think the life of a thief is very comfortable. They do not see the painful beatings a captured thief endures.

The saying is meant to teach people not to think about gaining without working, to not just see the shiny side of others without considering the hard work and pain they endure for it.

But from another angle, it also highlights a perception: thieves receiving beatings is considered natural justice.

So in the countryside, when the crackdowns were relaxed a few years ago, resulting in a rise in theft incidents, beating up thieves when caught was quite normal. Even the most timid and cautious people didn’t feel any psychological burden when hitting a thief.

However, with almost every household now owning a TV set, many people have learned some legal knowledge from programs on legal affairs, and have realized one thing: it turns out that beating thieves is illegal!

As for whether the money stolen from you fell from the sky for you to pick up, was earned through a year of blood, sweat, and tears working outside, or was obtained by selling blood at the hospital, that’s not addressed...

Of course, this money could have been for buying a gift for your children or parents at home, or the life-saving funds for a relative in the hospital, that’s not mentioned either...

And if the money is stolen, whether your family will have to tighten their belts for a while, whether the relative in the hospital might go home to die because there’s no money for treatment, or whether the children can’t afford school fees and can’t go to school... this... no one talks about...

So many people have always been puzzled: why is beating up a thief still illegal?

But this was just puzzlement until now, when suddenly an incident happened where a thief was beaten to death, which immediately caused everyone’s hearts to rise, even neglecting the important task of buying goods for the New Year.

Everyone wanted to know whether the young man who killed the thief would have to pay with his life—the villagers didn’t have much legal knowledge and only knew the law about paying with life for taking a life. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

If that were the case, what should we do when we see a thief in the future?

After all, thieves come prepared, carrying a little knife or a dagger is nothing unusual, and most of them work in gangs, so catching a thief is risky in itself.

If you can’t beat the thief, and the thief might stab you instead, whether or not to catch the thief is something to consider carefully—not everyone has Boss Yan’s skills, who could beat several cattle thieves single-handedly when he was just a kid.

Some people couldn’t help but think, it’s said that Boss Yan made a name for himself during good times. If it were nowadays, and he beat the cattle thieves like that, where would he be now? Cattle bluffing in his cattle farm? Most likely just another juvenile delinquent in the countryside!

Those in the know were paying attention to how Boss Yan was going to deal with this incident. After all, Boss Yan had never been merciful when beating thieves, and now he had sent the man who killed a thief to the station; he surely wouldn’t just wash his hands of it.

What was Yan Fei doing at that moment? He was dealing with Lin Haihu, "You like a big scene, don’t you? Blinded by money, aren’t you? Calling at the drop of a hat no matter what?"

After giving him a couple of pieces of his mind, he was still a bit flustered and went to complain to his uncle.

Lin Xiuqing’s ways of disciplining his son were limited; grabbing the boy, he left, "You don’t want to study, do you? Making trouble with nothing to do, is that it? Got energy with nowhere to direct it, huh? Well, now the construction site is empty and quiet, why don’t you go and dig trenches!"

The youngster really had it coming; taking advantage of others’ inattention, he sneaked off to call Zhang Kun. Luckily, Yan Fei had kept an eye out, otherwise, the kid would have earned another tip for information—this matter, if it attracts attention, is definitely bad news, and Yan Fei would be remiss not to deal with him.

After dealing with Lin Haihu, Yan Fei couldn’t sit still anymore. Old Pan had already called, asking how he planned to deal with the situation.

Yan Fei didn’t say much, just mentioned he was discussing with his wife, looking if they could find any justification in the legal provisions to reduce Guo Liucai’s sentence—Old Pan’s call probably represented the sentiment in the village, and he really couldn’t say much.

At this moment, in the village health clinic, Heizi and Pang Fa were in the director’s office, drinking tea and chatting, "I say that thief must have had some problem. Didn’t see any injury on him, just tied up and thrown in the car for a while, said he’s dead just like that, if you say there’s no problem, who’d believe it? Right?"

These two kept repeating the same lines, acting as if they were authoritative forensic experts.
