Before Traversing to the 70s, the Legitimate Daughter of the Marquis Empties Half the Imperial City

The legitimate daughter of the marquis, Lin Ran, who had just experienced the loss of her mother and the only relative in her maternal family, was plotted against by her father and stepmother, but ...

Chapter 167 The Search Begins

Accountant Zheng had no idea that everyone was complaining about him. He was still feeling moved by himself and was crying as he spoke.

“Today I just wanted to check on the progress of silkworm breeding, so I went to the Lin family. Who would have thought that I would stumble upon such a big secret of the Lin family.

I know that what I did was not right, but I had no choice. As the brigade accountant, I must put the interests and safety of all the members of the Tashan Brigade first.

If I shielded Captain Lin today, and if Captain Lin is really a reactionary, then our entire team will be implicated!

So, even though I know I will be despised by everyone after this incident, I have to do this for the players."

Some of the people below were indeed persuaded by Accountant Zheng.

"Accountant Zheng said so. Could it be that Captain Lin is really hiding foreign books and is a reactionary?"

"If this is true, then Accountant Zheng is really doing this for our own good."

“…”

For a moment, all kinds of suspicious, scrutinizing, and condemning eyes were cast at the Lin family members.

But Lin Ran didn't bother to explain. These ignorant team members had no judgment of their own and basically believed whoever made the right decision.

When the search results come out later, they will naturally know who is a human and who is a ghost.

What she had to do now was to convince Wei Feng to agree to search the Zheng family.

But when Lin Ran turned around to look for Wei Feng, she saw him trying to get close to Shi Yan.

Yes, get close!

She was sure she was seeing things.

Didn’t you see Wei Feng smiling politely at Shi Yan?

And he kept talking non-stop, and Shi Yan only nodded in response after a long time. If this isn't trying to get close to him, what is it?

This left her with no opportunity to speak.

Wei Feng here is indeed trying to get close to Shi Yan.

He recognized Shi Yan as soon as he opened his mouth. After their last meeting, he had asked people he knew in Jing City to inquire about Shi Yan's family background.

Stepson of Song, a member of the Beijing Revolutionary Committee.

Although he was his stepson, he was someone that a mere member of the county revolutionary committee dared not offend.

Of course, it would be even better if I could establish a good relationship with Shi Yan and thus get in touch with Commissioner Song.

Shi Yan naturally knew Wei Feng's purpose, but he was destined to disappoint the other party. His relationship with Song Wenhua was average, and at most they were just using each other.

So don't expect Song Wenhua to look upon Wei Feng with favor for his sake. It would be good enough if he doesn't make things difficult for him behind his back.

Therefore, Shi Yan's attitude was a bit perfunctory and cold, but fortunately Wei Feng didn't care.

The moment Lin Ran looked over, Shi Yan noticed it.

He knew that Lin Ran had something else to say, so he interrupted Wei Feng who was still talking.

"Commissioner Wei, it's more important to deal with the business first."

Wei Feng then slapped his forehead and laughed.

"Look at me, I've forgotten the important things. Let me take care of this first, and we'll talk about it later."

Seeing that they finally stopped talking, Lin Ran quickly spoke:

"Commissioner Wei, now we know who reported my family. I still say the same thing. As long as you can search together and treat everyone equally, we Lin family members promise not to say a word and will immediately open the door to welcome you in and search as you please!"

"I just thought about it, and what you said before is quite reasonable. There really needs to be some restrictions, otherwise everyone will come to report, and our Revolutionary Committee will be too busy to handle it. So I agree with your proposal."

Wei Feng was particularly easy to talk to this time.

As for the reason, it was naturally because he not only recognized Shi Yan, but also Lin Lao San.

Isn't this Shi Yan's friend?

Although he could not cancel the inspection of the Lin family, he could try his best to meet the Lin family's requirements.

No matter whether the Lin family has any problems or not, at least I have sold Shi Yan out, so that Shi Yan can't blame me.

Seeing his attitude change so quickly, Lin Ran looked at Shi Yan thoughtfully.

It seems that Shi Yan's family background must be complicated.

But none of this has anything to do with her, she just owes Shi Yan a favor this time.

Lin Ran didn't have time to think about it now, because Wei Feng had already brought people into her house.

They first started searching from the east room of Lin Weiguo and Shen Wenfang, and soon found a bag of cakes and candies.

Before Wei Feng could say anything, his men asked harshly:

"You live in the countryside, where do you get so many cake and candy tickets?"

These foods have all been obtained through clear routes.

So, Lin Ran repeated the excuse she used last time.

"I borrowed these tickets from Shi Zhiqing."

The subordinate wanted to say something else but was stopped by Wei Feng.

"Alright, it's just a pack of snacks, what's there to ask? Shi Zhiqing is an educated youth from Beijing, can't he even come up with this little ticket? Don't forget what we are looking for."

The subordinate gave up after hearing this, put down the food, and continued to search in the cabinet.

After the others left, Wei Feng looked back and forth curiously between Lin Ran and Shi Yan.

Don’t think that what he said just now was so casual. Even for city dwellers, these cake and sugar tickets could not be treated the same as cabbage.

What's more, there is a big bag here.

The most important thing is that it is still loaned out.

What kind of relationship would be so generous as to lend out so many tickets at once?

He looked at Lin Ran carefully again, as if he suddenly understood.

Since ancient times, heroes have been unable to resist the temptation of beautiful women, and it seems that Shi Yan is no exception!

However, if Shi Yan still has this kind of relationship with the Lin family, then he must handle the Lin family's matter today with caution.

Fortunately, the next few people searched the Lin family's house from inside to outside and did not find any suspicious items.

Wei Feng also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't have to worry about it anymore.

But they relaxed too early. Just as they were about to withdraw, Accountant Zheng spoke anxiously.

"Commissioner Wei, your toilet hasn't been inspected yet. I discovered it when I was using the Lin family's toilet."

As he said that, he walked to the toilet door and pointed at the rat hole with a confident look on his face.

"It's right here. Look, the soil here is darker than other places. It's obvious that it's been turned over."

"It was probably buried again."

While Wei Feng and his team were checking, almost all the team members gathered at the door of the Lin family, anxiously waiting for the results of the inspection.

Although some team members believed that Accountant Zheng was right to report the Lin family for the team.

But seeing that he was still staring at the Lin family after they had checked and found no problems, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart and couldn't help but start to wonder.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like he is hoping something bad will happen to the Lin family.

Although Wei Feng was secretly annoyed by Accountant Zheng's ignorance of the current situation, he could only wave his hands and ask his two men to come and dig in public.

I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for the Lin family and myself.

Could there really be something hidden in here?

Thinking of this, he subconsciously observed the expressions of several people from the Lin family.

Except for one person who shrank his head, everyone else seemed quite calm.

Is this okay?

Then why did Accountant Zheng keep saying he saw it and even called the county to report it?
