Chapter 25 The Fate of the Ma Family

Bai Nuo only remembered to turn on the check-in scanning program after she left the police station. The main system program had only been changed a couple of days ago, and she hadn't gotten used to it yet.

However, after opening the scanning program, she can view the information of all the check-in spots in the area through the machine on the third floor of the space pavilion.

Green punctuation marks indicate places where you can check in; gray punctuation marks with a countdown timer indicate places where you have already checked in and are in the grace period; and completely grayed-out places with no countdown timer are expired.

Some check-in spots can be visited an unlimited number of times, some are one-time only, and some have a limited number of visits.

Having a map is very convenient, and you don't have to go looking for it. It also marks the locations for checking in. You could say that this new system is really user-friendly. Moreover, she can also store the map in her mind through the space.

"What kind of prizes could the Council possibly have for a raffle?" Bai Nuo asked, glancing at the Council's office building not far behind her.

"Of course there are! All the things that come in and out of there are good stuff. Over the years, the Council has brought back quite a few treasures."

"In that case, let's check in, and then we'll draw a prize when we get home."

She currently has nine raffle tickets in her hand.

"Ding, you have successfully checked in at the Fuyuan Road Pavilion in Huangpu District, Shanghai. You can start the lucky draw at any time."

Having completed one check-in task, Bai Nuo wasn't in a hurry to draw a prize. She arrived early and could see the parade without having to squeeze into the crowd. After a while, when she was surrounded by people, a noisy sound came from the street, mixed with scornful curses.

"The Ma family used to be incredibly arrogant, relying on the fact that three of them were paid and they had their own house to live in. The younger generation in the family were practically looking down on everyone. Who would have thought they would end up like this?"

"They deserve it. It's all over the machinery factory's residential compound. The house doesn't belong to them at all. It belongs to another girl. Her family is all gone, but they made all the arrangements beforehand. To thank them for taking care of her, they gave them money, arranged jobs, and provided them with a house. They weren't satisfied with that. They even wanted to kill the girl and seize her family's property. They're shameless."

"That's nothing. Look at those three women behind them. That's outrageous. They're sleeping with a man in his fifties. All three of them together! My goodness, even decades ago, no one would have done that. It's a new society, and they still dare to do such a despicable and shameless thing. It's utterly disgraceful."

"My God, how could such a thing happen? Ugh, it's disgusting! How can someone like that still have the nerve to live?"

As they talked, the group started throwing small stones and rotten leaves at the heads of the Ma family members who were parading through the streets, and some even threw stones.

"Hey, have you heard? There's only an old lady and a grandson with crippled arms and legs left in their family. Yesterday, I heard from relatives in the machinery factory's residential compound that the old lady suddenly started yelling and screaming all night a couple of nights ago. No matter how much they knocked on the door, no one answered. The next morning, she ran out in a daze, grabbed her crippled grandson, and ran back to the countryside. You tell me... isn't this because she's done too many bad things?"

The last sentence was spoken very softly, and the final phrase "retribution" was not uttered. After all, in those days, feudal superstition was subject to criticism and struggle, and no one dared to say it on the street.

"I guessed so. And they don't just have two kids left, they also have a granddaughter. This morning, the granddaughter was found sleeping in a little rascal's room. That family lives next door to me, and they've caused quite a stir in the sugar factory's residential compound. In the end, they said she was his girlfriend, and the little rascal's mother almost tore the girl apart. Tsk tsk tsk, what a family! The mother and uncle are having an affair, the aunt is sleeping with two of her cousins, and the last one is sleeping with an unmarried young man."

"Exactly! Hey, then these two have to get married, right?"

"What kind of marriage is this? That little rascal's family is practically overflowing with people sleeping together. Where would they find the space for a wedding? Besides, that mother knows the Ma family's situation perfectly well. How could she let her precious son marry such a thing? I guess she'll just drag it out. Before I left, I heard that mother talking about going to the countryside. I guess she's trying to secretly enroll that girl so she can get rid of her as soon as possible. But I guess she has to keep it a secret for now. Otherwise, if she angers that girl, she might go all out and report her. Then her son will be in trouble."

"That's true."

Bai Nuo listened with a blank expression. So Ma Xiaomei was so decisive. She really did not disappoint.

However, the hoodlum's mother doesn't need to worry; the notice from the educated youth office should be sent over today.

After watching the commotion for a while, Bai Nuo turned and left. Her feud with the Ma family was over. She had paid back what she owed, and their future life or death was no longer her concern.

Moreover, she preserved her reputation, remaining untainted by that family, and no one even knew who had done it.

Doing bad things quietly can be quite enjoyable!

However, she guessed that the best outcome for that family was simply to die young and be reborn sooner.

Next, she needs to prepare the remaining things. She will be going to the countryside in a few days. Although she doesn't lack anything, she still needs to prepare some things on the surface and send a large package over so that there will be a legitimate source for anything she takes out.

As for the house, we'll have to wait and see how things go with the police. Houses in Shanghai might become very valuable someday, but these kinds of buildings are hard to deal with right now. If you rent them out, there will be a lot of trouble over time. It's okay if you have reliable relatives in the area to help look after them, but if you don't have anyone, it's really not going to work. It's better to just sell it once and for all and then come back to buy two better ones later.

In addition, there was one place she absolutely had to go to; otherwise, she would never feel at ease.
