With that in mind, Gu Yunyang didn't really think the other party would come knocking on his door.
But in the middle of the night, someone knocked on the door.
Gu Yunyang was somewhat surprised. He got up and opened the door, only to see Yu Xiaobo leading several people in uniforms over.
"Brother Yu, what's this?"
Gu Yunyang had a rough idea of what was going on, but he pretended not to know anything and asked in a puzzled manner.
Yu Xiaobo gave a brief introduction: "This is a colleague from another office. He received a report from the Gu family in the compound that something had been stolen from their home."
Gu Yunyang had long suspected that Gu Anning, having worked in the capital for decades, couldn't possibly have no connections at all.
It was bad enough that things were missing from the courtyard house, but things were also missing from the old house.
It's impossible for the other party not to have any suspicions, so it's reasonable to send someone to investigate.
Gu Yunyang chuckled and looked at the others: "So, you all think I stole something from the Gu family?"
The leader frowned; he subconsciously disliked Gu Yunyang.
That makes sense, though. He had some connection with Gu Anning, so naturally he couldn't bring himself to like the adopted son who had been switched at birth with the Gu family.
"Tell me honestly, where did you hide the thing?"
Gu Yunyang raised an eyebrow and looked at Yu Xiaobo: "So, Brother Yu's colleague has already confirmed that I stole the things, so he's here to collect the stolen goods?"
Yu Xiaobo actually tended to believe Gu Yunyang, after all, they all lived in the next compound and knew the true colors of the Gu family members.
However, he was hesitant to complain, but he still nudged his colleague and frowned, saying, "Watch your approach. There's no evidence; you're just here to ask questions, not to arrest anyone."
Chang Bin frowned; Yu Xiaobo's sabotage had put him in an awkward position.
However, since Yu Xiaobo had already reminded him, Chang Bin had no choice but to accept it and then asked, "Tell me about your whereabouts these past two days."
Gu Yunyang also knew that when dealing with these kinds of people, it was impossible not to tell the truth.
This isn't the future; there's no real evidence, so there's no way to arrest anyone.
Moreover, one can say, "I won't say anything until my lawyer arrives."
He briefly explained his whereabouts: "I had nowhere to go last night, so I stayed in the alleys in the West District..."
"Wait, why are you still outside so late at night?" Chang Bin felt he had caught something wrong and immediately asked.
However, they overlooked Yu Xiaobo's disdainful look.
Gu Yunyang said speechlessly, "I was a child that the Gu family deliberately switched at birth. Now that the Gu family's original child has been found, I have nowhere to go. I was kicked out yesterday. After dinner, Aunt Zhang told the gatekeeper of the compound that I was not allowed to go back in. When I left last night, I only had a schoolbag with me, nothing else. Xu Meili from the compound saw it, and the gatekeeper saw it too. They can all testify for me."
Gu Yunyang's words left Chang Bin speechless.
However, he overlooked the words Gu Yunyang deliberately used to describe switching babies.
But he also knew that he couldn't say anything more.
There are no curfew laws now, so if people have nowhere to go and spend the night outside, they can't do anything about it.
After a pause, Gu Yunyang continued, "Later, I happened to run into Brother Yu and his colleagues doing something, and I helped them out a bit. Then Brother Zuo brought me back, and Brother Yu, knowing I had nowhere to go, suggested that I stay in his dormitory for a few days until my departure for the countryside. Today I went out and bought some things, not much, and they're all piled up over there."
As he spoke, Gu Yunyang pointed to some things he had deliberately taken out and displayed outside, as a cover-up.
