Lying Low to Scavenge in the Courtyard

Zhang Weiguo transmigrates to that era of scarcity, a time of lacking clothes and food.

He is a decorated veteran who has been transferred to a position as the head of the purchasing departme...

Chapter 198: Investigation Begins

Zhang Weiguo estimated that someone would be monitoring the courtyard.

Will they monitor everyone? That’s a bit difficult as they don’t have that many people and it’s easier to be exposed when there are too many people.

They only monitor on a large scale.

Maybe there is someone outside the courtyard now.

The night passed with everyone having different thoughts.

The next day, Zhang Weiguo got up and went out to buy breakfast.

By the way, see if anyone is monitoring Sihayuan.

Zhang Weiguo left the courtyard and looked around calmly.

Found a few unfamiliar faces.

Someone really is monitoring the courtyard.

Zhang Weiguo arrived at the breakfast shop and felt someone following him.

Zhang Weiguo ordered a bowl of porridge and two fried dough sticks, found a table, sat down and started eating.

Then the person who was following Zhang Weiguo bought breakfast and started eating.

But while eating, he was still constantly observing his surroundings.

I guess he wanted to see if there was anyone who could contact Zhang Weiguo.

Zhang Weiguo finished his breakfast. The fried dough sticks were very big and two of them made him full.

Zhang Weiguo bought some breakfast and took it back, these were for his wife.

The two men did not follow immediately but continued to eat here.

When we finished eating, we didn't see anyone special.

I came to where Zhang Weiguo was sitting to see if there was anything special.

After checking it over, I didn't find anything, except that the table was too broken and needed to be replaced.

The two checked all the places Zhang Weiguo had been, but found no clues and determined that Zhang Weiguo just came to buy breakfast.

The two didn't find anything, so they went back.

Report the situation to the captain.

Zhang Weiguo returned home, put breakfast on the table, and went to wake up his wife.

Zhang Weiguo rides his bike to work.

When I have nothing to do, I stay in the office. When I have something to do, I go to the countryside to collect supplies.

He didn't show anything wrong, and didn't care if anyone was following him or not.

Two days passed like this.

These people also did not find any valuable clues on the people in the courtyard.

After work that day, everyone cooked dinner at home.

The entire courtyard was fenced off.

A large group of people appeared in the courtyard.

Without saying anything, he just kept everyone at home and didn't allow them to go anywhere.

Then, someone came to the old lady's house and packed up all her things and took them away.

There was nothing left in the entire room.

Even the ground was carefully checked.

After taking away all the old lady's belongings, they began to interrogate the people in the courtyard.

I wanted to start from the second uncle's house next door to the old lady's house. I would first go into the house and check everything. After making sure there was nothing special, I would start interrogating him.

Ask the old lady if there is anything special about her, whether she has contact with anyone, and who she usually contacts.

The second uncle didn't dare to hide anything and told everything he knew.

After recording all the problems, he told the second uncle not to tell anyone about this matter.

Then we went to Xu Damao's house.

Jia Zhang, the wife of Xu Damao, was cooking when she saw a group of people rushing in.

Just as Jia Zhang was about to shout, a gun was pointed at her head.

She just makes some noise in the courtyard from time to time, and no one cares about her.

Feeling the cold muzzle of the gun, Jia Zhang was almost frightened to death.

He answered whatever was asked and his attitude was extremely good.

I asked similar questions.

Made a record and told Jia Zhang not to tell anyone about this.

After leaving Xu Damao's house, we arrived at Zhang Weiguo's home.

Zhang Weiguo knew it when these people entered the courtyard.

I know that every household will be checked.

Zhang Weiguo was frying eggs at home when they came in.

As soon as they entered the room, they saw the portrait of the great man and immediately put away their guns.

The attitude improved immediately.

This thing just works so well.

I checked Zhang Wei's house but found nothing.

Just start asking.

Zhang Weiguo talked about his own situation and said that he moved into the courtyard house after he was demobilized.

I don’t have much contact with the people in the courtyard.

I have never had any dealings with the old lady. My impression is that she stays in the house all day and doesn't come out or communicate with others.

I don't have any impression of the old lady, and I don't know what kind of person she is.

An old man is often seen delivering meals to the old lady. If there is one person in the entire courtyard who is most familiar to the old lady, it is the old man.

It would be right to ask the uncle about the old lady's affairs.

After asking, they left.

When they went to the next house, Zhang Weiguo invited Ran Qiuye to have dinner.

They are in the courtyard, so they probably won't be able to get any clues.

I just don't know if they found anything special during the search.

They quickly checked the backyard, and after finishing the backyard, they went to the middle yard.

The uncle is in the Intermediate Court, and they are conducting a strict investigation on his family.

More than 5,000 yuan was found in an old man’s house.

An old man has a high salary, so it is normal for him to be able to praise so much money.

It can be said that the uncle is the richest person in the entire courtyard.

Only a few hundred dollars were found in Zhang Weiguo's house, all of which were hidden by Ran Qiuye.

Zhang Weiguo didn't know how much money Ran Qiuye had hidden or where she had hidden it.

Zhang Weiguo handed over one hundred yuan every month and then didn't care about anything else.

As for what Ran Qiuye does with the money, Zhang Weiguo doesn't care at all.

Whether Ran Qiuye spent it or saved it, Zhang Weiguo would not ask.

The inquiries at other homes were completed quickly, but the one at the uncle's home took the longest.

Since the old man and the old lady are most familiar with each other, the old man is the most suspicious.

Everyone said that the old man and the old lady were most familiar with each other, and the old man couldn't deny it because there were so many witnesses.

The old man also took advantage of his status as an uncle and said that he was taking care of the elderly and widowed people, which was a job arranged by the street office.

As for who the old lady was, he had no idea.

After the final questioning, nothing suspicious was found.

Then it was Sha Zhu's house, and nothing was found there either.

Sha Zhu's house was very clean, and not even any money was found.

There was no food either.

Of course, this is none of their business.

After asking, he came to Qin Huairu's house.

This scared Banggeng so much that he thought they were here to catch him.

Bang Geng was so scared that he hid in bed and dared not come out.

They thought the child was too young and had never seen such a scene before and was frightened.

What they didn't know was that this kid was no good and was very skilled at stealing.

All he had to do was sneak in and pick the lock.

They began to question Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu really didn't know anything about the old lady.

The old lady didn't think highly of Qin Huairu and didn't have a good face towards her.
