No evidence, no facts

When the year ended, the world was in chaos.

I, who have always been at peace with the world, have also been forced to get involved in some trivial matters. Some can be immune to mud and do not touch it; Some people are inevitably in a mess, and jumping into the Yellow River can't wash them off.

Let's briefly review. Let's first disclose some ugly phenomena in the beautiful reality. Second, let's take it as a kind reminder that you and I can escape in a complicated world.

Sometimes, evidence is more important than facts.

A few days ago, under the kind reminder of the neighbors downstairs, we went to the property to ask for an inspection. The items they missed were probably gas valves and the like.

If you want to ask your neighbors how they know these items are missing, you have to turn on the gas from the gas company. The door-to-door service staff of the gas company found a few things missing at a glance, and they were very sure that these things should be provided by the property to the residents. Because of the lack of these objects, the follow-up work can not be carried out, so we have to return in vain.

Because of the direction problem, the neighbors downstairs dialed the phone number of the property first and explained the situation briefly. How do you know that nothing was asked over there? They answered affirmatively: those things must have been given to you when you turned over the key. There is nothing extra here. Want to ask again, the phone has hung up. ...

I was very angry with their attitude. At that time, there was only one idea. I went directly to the property and confronted them face to face.

Or the two sisters I saw on the day of the house inspection. One of them, Sister A, talked nonsense. As soon as she came up, she said she would definitely give it, and it was impossible to give another set. And Sister B is very thoughtful, pointing to the inspection list at that time and saying that you have all ticked it, which proves that it must have been given.

What? At that time, it was obviously your own people who ticked the inspection list and asked us to sign it, saying that it was no problem.

Yes, we are to blame. We don't know what the air valve looks like. But even if we know, no one knows that it is not part of a pipeline, but will be handed over to us by them alone.

We insisted that we really only got the key and nothing else. And the property insists, it must have been given, there is nothing extra, and it is impossible to give you another set.

But logically, didn't they give it to us, and we came to get what we deserved?

The truth of the matter will be buried by the public, and now Sister A slams out the door, hoping to overwhelm us in momentum.

At that time, the inner feelings were indescribable, anger was mixed with grievances, and there was helplessness in grievances.

I suddenly realized that the surveillance video can prove a series of truths that happened before and after the house inspection that day. After all, if they gave it to us, it must have been taken out of the property, and they said it was given to us in a handbag, so at least we can see the traces left by the goose in the monitoring.

Walking slowly, a middle-aged elder brother patiently asked what happened compared with his two sisters. Of course, we take pains to reiterate. The turning point of things starts here.

Because of the need to adjust the monitoring, the middle-aged brother also took us to the monitoring room very readily, and I was a little excited. At least someone is willing to listen to our statement, so I can't help but pour bitter water.

According to the recalled time, the video of that afternoon was found accurately, and the truth surfaced. If I didn't give it, I didn't give it. Because of this hard-won evidence that can prove the facts, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The only thing left is that the property apologized. The neighbors downstairs feel that since the matter has been solved, it is useless to say more. I also felt that the game was redundant, so I left.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Although things are over, I can't stop thinking.

Why is my property fee not less than one point, but I can't get the minimum respect from others? Why state the truth and no one cares what the truth is? Why did they say yes and we said no?

When it is found that the reason is unclear, it seems that only evidence is the most powerful. Although the facts are there, no one wants to listen, let alone believe them.

In addition, I don't know if the apology of the property elder sister is sincere, but at least I can't accept the ugliness of this second and the hypocrisy of the next.

I think, if there is no monitoring as evidence to support the fact that black stool is not black and white stool is not white, everything will be arbitrary by the property.

So, sometimes, evidence is more important than facts. The fact is not that others will listen to what you say, nor that others will believe what you say. At the critical moment, only the evidence can speak. Unfortunately, we can only pray for the maximum possession, manufacture and retention of the evidence that belongs to the facts.

Sometimes, it is more useful to leave the certificate in advance than to identify it afterwards.

Two days ago, the former landlord suddenly sent a message in the rental group.

The background of the matter is that because my roommate Xiaoqing and I didn't live for a full year, the landlord deducted the deposit of one month's rent according to the contract and returned most of the remaining rent that should have been refunded. Moreover, I stayed for 10 days this month, which was also settled by the day according to the landlord's intention. In addition, the landlord detained our 500 yuan as an advance payment for utilities.

In fact, our water and electricity charges for two months a day add up to no more than 250, so it is obviously unreasonable to prepay 500 yuan's water and electricity charges. But the landlord promised to retreat more and make up less, so he didn't think much.

In the afternoon, the landlord aunt sent a picture showing two small dents on the side of the refrigerator.

On the one hand, I think that dent is familiar; On the other hand, I am curious about the intention of my aunt to send pictures.

Immediately, my aunt asked us how you broke the refrigerator as soon as you lived. I must admit that I have seen dents, but didn't I have them from the beginning? I didn't want to be misunderstood, so I quickly explained that I had it when I moved in. I just don't think the two small dents on the side of the refrigerator will affect the use of the refrigerator at all, so I didn't take it to heart.

Aunt insisted on not believing, saying that the refrigerator was still new when it was delivered, and how could it be disfigured when it was used? I was surprised, too. Didn't you knock when I delivered it? We usually open and close the refrigerator door, and nothing can hurt the refrigerator.

What surprised me next was that it was not my aunt who made the voice, but her daughter, a girl two years younger than me and my former roommate. When she came up, she called us shameless and refused to admit that she had damaged other people's things.

Then, my aunt said that the refrigerator was full of water. How do you use the refrigerator? I asked my aunt, didn't you let me pull out the refrigerator the day you checked the house? Don't you remember? The refrigerator has been used before, so there will be water when it is turned off. Isn't this common sense?

I am dumbfounded. If I want to aggravate my crime, I can always find a solution.

If it's our problem, we're willing to lose money, not to mention the small dent is really not serious, and it's only a matter of tens of dollars to put it on the refrigerator with hundreds of dollars. However, it's really not our problem. We have no reason or need to be scapegoats and let the landlord kill us.

Then, the landlord's daughter received a lot of continuous voices before she heard a voice that made her stomach ache. What kind of family has cultivated such a girl who is unreasonable, picky and worried about her quality? Thinking of this, I don't want to waste any more words with this girl, let alone listen to her despicable words.

If outsiders don't know, they will probably think that we set fire to their home, not because there are two small dents on the refrigerator that I don't know why.

So, I calmly sent the past few messages to prove my innocence.

But in fact, statements without evidence are not even air in the eyes of some people. I really regret why I didn't take pictures in time to reflect the problem when I found it, and I ended up in a situation where I couldn't tell you clearly.

Later, the landlord's family made several voices in the group, and I didn't listen. In the evening, the landlord and aunt sent me a message alone, which read: Don't be wronged in the group again, it's my bad luck.

Who is unlucky, maybe God knows best.

After reading the landlord's words, I still couldn't help but think about it and replied: Aunt, I'm still saying that we won't blame, and we won't admit what we didn't do. Since it's hard to argue, is it enough for each of us to pay 100?

Ironically, the news has shown rejection, and it is obvious that the landlord and aunt have blacked me out. Only my former roommate and I visited the rented house once. Therefore, the reserved utilities are all directly into the landlord's pocket, and more refunds and less subsidies are just talk.

I don't know how to explain this story that really happened to me. Think of it as spending money at the end of the year to eliminate disasters.

I'm annoyed, but I don't think it's right. That's an old saying, learn from mistakes. So friends who rent a house outside must be cautious. It's best to take photos of all aspects of the house in front of the landlord before moving in. If you find something wrong, point it out as soon as possible, regardless of the size of the problem, so as not to be slandered by the bad landlord afterwards. You can put some disputes into the contract. After all, writing it in black and white beforehand may make people feel more guilty than being framed afterwards.

Because you really don't know what kind of landlord you will meet and what a wonderful daughter you will have.

Before that, I always felt lucky, so I always met good people. But the world is not all beautiful. There are thousands of faces in human nature, and I don't know which side I will bump into one day.

Therefore, it is always more useful to leave a certificate in advance than to distinguish it afterwards, and those of us who are wandering in the rivers and lakes need to be more careful, more careful and take the initiative to attack, so as not to become fish on the chopping block of others.
