The underground situation has been determined.

Su Ruobai rubbed his forehead in thought.

What to do next?

How can we make this matter the biggest one?

After thinking it over, I realized that only the traditional folk skill of setting fires could achieve the best results.

They can also extricate themselves from the situation.

However, she first collected some interest.

Since she's already unconscious, let her search however she wants.

The drawer was overturned; there were only a few dozen yuan inside, but other valuables, such as small yellow croakers, jade items, and bundles of cash, were missing.

No, there's nothing there.

The wardrobe was searched, but there were no valuables found.

There are a few good pieces of material, though.

It looks like Yang Donghai and his wife are making summer clothes.

Two dark blue ones, one with small floral patterns, and one light blue one.

It's better than nothing, so I'll put them all into my space.

Once they're made into clothes, who can recognize what they originally looked like?

However, Su Ruobai frowned.

This person is a high-ranking official, so how could this be all the wealth he has?

When we met today, he seemed to be dressed quite casually.

The clothes didn't have any patches, but they weren't brand new either; they were probably about 70-80% new.

The material is just ordinary material.

It seems that Director Yang is someone who practices hard work and frugality?

But how could such a perverted person who would tie up women have such high awareness?

I must have forgotten something.

Su Ruobai refused to believe it!

So they put their old skills to use and began exploring underground.

Hmm, this is wood, this is stone, this is... and this is nothing at all.

They've dug through the whole area.

Still nothing?!

Su Ruobai frowned. Could it be that all she got after coming all this way was a paltry few dozen yuan?

That's such a low pay!

She was unwilling to accept it!

We also looked for the old man's room next door; it had more money there, over a hundred.

There was no gold jewelry, only two pairs of silver clove earrings.

Su Ruobai glanced at the little biscuit in her hand.

His mouth twitched.

Well, something is better than nothing.

But... this little bit of stuff doesn't suit this person's image!

Is such a lewd and depraved person really so devoted to lust?

Aren't they all about combining wealth and sex, and developing together?

Is this person an oddball?

She couldn't understand it!

If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it.

You can't have the mindset that not getting a good deal means you've lost out.

One must be truly honest in one's conduct.

That hurts, but that's exactly what she was thinking.

Finally, Su Ruobai opened the cellar entrance.

The cellar entrance was sealed quite tightly; I wonder where the ventilation opening was made.

It was even locked.

Fortunately, she was skilled at lock picking.

After finishing all that, they finally set the woodpile ablaze.

As for the room, I ordered a few pieces of clothing.

They still moved it to the main room.

To prevent people from being burned to death if no one comes to put out the fire.

Everything is now set up.

Su Ruobai then shouted several times, "Fire! Help! Fire!"

After cleaning up the traces, they left.

Deputy Director Yang's small courtyard is located in the center of the family compound.

Hearing the noise, lights came on in the nearby homes.

At first, no one dared to come out.

It's understandable, really. In the dead of night, who knows if a thief is deliberately yelling for help, waiting for someone to come out so they can hit them from behind.

So it's best to be careful.

Su Ruobai had walked quite a distance, but hadn't seen anyone come out.

Secretly regretting: I left too early!

None of the neighbors dared to come out; they could only look out through their windows.

But you can't see anything through the courtyard wall.

It wasn't until the neighbors on both sides saw the red glow emanating from Deputy Director Yang's house through the courtyard wall that the situation became clear.

Deputy Director Yang's neighbor to the left was Wang Biao, the director of the Revolutionary Committee.

The neighbor on the right is another deputy director, Qi Heng.

The two watched as the fire at the Yang family's house slowly grew larger.

"Dad, the Yang family next door is on fire, should we go check it out?" Wang Biao's eldest son got up when he heard the commotion.

He was also holding a claw hammer in his hand.

Wang Biao pursed his lips: "Go!"

Wang Ma, however, was not keen on letting her husband and children go.

"Go where? What's there to go?"

That old hag is always going against me. This morning when I went to line up to buy groceries, Xiao Wu saw it was me and gave me his spot so he could go to the back of the line.

For such a trivial matter, that old hag is making a fuss about it everywhere.

She doesn't even look at what her son has done. He's so old, yet he still marries a young girl. And he doesn't treat her well; he beats her up every day until she's covered in bruises.

They thought they were so smart that no one could tell when they were dressed.

"Pah, this is the fourth one already. Aren't they afraid of getting their comeuppance for doing so many wicked things?"

Wang Biao frowned.

"Go away, don't listen to your mother. Several lives are at stake!"

These women, they only ever deal with such trivial matters every day.

Fu Biao has done many despicable things.

If it weren't for someone protecting him, he would have been finished long ago.

It's a pity that even he can only protect himself; he can't send someone like that to get shot.

I feel ashamed before the organization.

If it were just him alone, it wouldn't be so bad, but he has such a large family to support!

"Alright, let's hurry! I see this fire is getting bigger and bigger!"

The second son also came out.

He was carrying two bricks in his hand.

This is what he uses to exercise.

Everything on it is smooth and slippery from being touched.
