Chapter 215: A huge amount of money was lost from the farm. Could the suspect be dead?
"Has the suspect been identified?" Luo Xinxin asked.
Bao Hui nodded. "It was Wang Li. She stole the money and ran away."
Luo Xinxin frowned. She knew Wang Li, the farm's cashier. She was in her thirties and not particularly pretty, but she loved dressing up and had a cheerful and outgoing personality. She didn't get along well with female comrades, but got along very well with male comrades.
Therefore, Wang Li did not have a good reputation on the farm. There were a lot of gossips about her private life, saying that she cheated on her husband and that her lover was also from the farm.
There are many rumors about Wang Li's lover, but the specific one has not been determined yet. Several male comrades who have a good relationship with Wang Li have become the objects of suspicion.
"How do you know that it was Wang Li who stole the money? Do you have any evidence?" Luo Xinxin asked.
"Wang Li disappeared on the day the money was lost. Her husband said she had returned to her parents' home, but she didn't. Instead, she ran away with the stolen money."
Baohui became more and more angry as he spoke. He used to think Wang Liren was a good person, but now he just wanted to beat this bitch to death.
Damn it, they have to work overtime every day, and they can only get half of their salary, so they can’t even have a happy New Year!
"How many days has she been missing?" Luo Xinxin asked again.
"We've searched the entire county for fourteen days, but we haven't found her. Maybe she's fled to another province."
Baohui cursed again under his breath, obviously hating Wang Li very much.
"Have you been looking for Wang Li these days?"
"Yes, the money is in her hands. Only by finding her can we pay everyone's wages. Otherwise, how are we going to celebrate the New Year?"
Bao Hui got angry again and gritted his teeth, "Could this woman have grown wings and flown to the sky? Otherwise, why can't we find her?"
"Where is the minefield leader?"
Luo Xinxin still hasn't seen Director Lei, and she suspects he is not on the farm.
"I went to the county town to borrow money. I don't know if I can get the money back before the New Year. The manager plans to borrow money to pay the wages first." Baohui said.
Luo Xinxin calculated that there were still five days until the Chinese New Year. Since current criminal investigation did not have high technology, the case could not be solved that quickly and it might end up becoming an unsolved case.
"What's the last name of the police officer who came to investigate the case?" she asked.
"My last name is Zhong."
Baohui answered.
Luo Xinxin smiled and said, since they were old acquaintances, that would save her trouble.
Daya finally finished using the toilet and staggered back. When she saw Luo Xinxin, her eyes lit up and she rushed over happily to hug her.
"What did you eat?"
Luo Xinxin took a few steps back. It was smelly and she didn't want to be covered in stench.
"Grandma Luo's medicine...I took it and it caused diarrhea."
Daya spoke weakly. She didn't have severe diarrhea at first, so Old Lady Luo volunteered to make medicine for her. However, after taking the medicine, she had diarrhea and couldn't stop.
Old Mrs. Luo in the room heard it and wanted to go out to argue with her. If the girl hadn't drunk her medicine, she would have had even worse diarrhea.
"Don't take medicine randomly in the future. Take this."
Luo Xinxin twitched the corner of her mouth. Old Mrs. Luo was not even a quack doctor. It was just luck that the patient didn't die after taking the medicine she prescribed.
She gave him an anti-diarrhea medicine bought from the mall. Tongzi said it was very effective and cured the disease after taking it once.
Daya put the medicine into her mouth and swallowed it dry without using any water.
In less than a minute, she straightened up and said with renewed energy, "My stomach doesn't hurt anymore!"
As expected, my sister is the best. She got better as soon as she took the prescribed medicine. Unlike Grandma Luo, the more she took the cooked medicine, the more diarrhea she had. She spent more time in the toilet than in bed that day, and her butt was almost broken by diarrhea.
"Go take a shower, you stink!"
Luo Xinxin pushed her away in disgust.
Daya grinned and went back to boil water for a bath.
Luo Xinxin and Li Rong went to see Public Security Officer Zhong to ask about the details of the case.
The farm set up a temporary investigation office, and the office was right next to the security department. Public Security Zhong and his two apprentices were there, as well as several comrades from the security department, and they were discussing the case.
Luo Xinxin knocked on the door. When Zhong Gongan saw her, his eyes lit up and he greeted her enthusiastically: "When did Comrade Luo come back?"
"Just now, I heard that money was lost at the farm, so I came to ask about it."
Luo Xinxin smiled and shook hands with him, and Li Rong also shook hands with him.
"The case is actually quite simple. Cashier Wang Li stole 12,000 yuan from public funds and absconded with the money that same day, claiming to her husband that she was returning to her parents' home. The farm discovered the theft the next day and reported it to the police. Fourteen days have passed since the incident."
Public Security Officer Zhong gave a brief account of the case, which was indeed not complicated. The only complicated thing was that Wang Li had not been found yet, as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth.
"Why are you so sure that Wang Li stole the money? Is she the only one who has the key to the safe?" Li Rong couldn't help asking.
"There were three keys. Director Lei, Accountant Li, and Wang Li each had one. Director Lei and Accountant Li's keys were all in the possession of the police. They also cooperated with the investigation and were cleared of suspicion. The time Wang Li disappeared coincided with the time the money was stolen. We also apprehended a key individual, Wang Li's lover. He broke into the finance office in the middle of the night and stole the money. There were footprints left by him in the office, and he was also seen near the finance office at night."
Public Security Officer Zhong told everyone about the investigations over the past few days without hiding anything.
Wang Li's lover's surname is Lu, and his name is Lu Zhihua. He is also a member of the security department. Lu Zhihua is 27 years old and not married. He admitted to having a lover relationship with Wang Li, but did not admit to stealing money.
"I have a question. Why didn't Lu Zhihua escape with Wang Li? Instead, he stayed on the farm waiting for you to catch him?" Luo Xinxin asked.
"Two people escaping would be too conspicuous, so Lv Zhihua stayed behind to divert the target and make it easier for Wang Li to escape."
What Zhong Gongan said made sense, but Luo Xinxin still had doubts. She didn't doubt Gongan's judgment, but she doubted Lu Zhihua's feelings for Wang Li.
It sounds like Lv Zhihua was willing to sacrifice himself to divert the attention of the police in order to protect Wang Li, but this was 12,000 yuan. Once caught, he would definitely be sentenced to death. Was Lv Zhihua really willing to die for Wang Li?
There is indeed love that lasts till death, but it is very rare. Luo Xinxin doesn't think that the affair between Lu Zhihua and Wang Li can be such a noble love.
so--
"Have you ever considered the possibility that Wang Li didn't escape and something might have happened to her?"
Luo Xinxin expressed her suspicions. From the beginning, she felt that it was unlikely that Wang Li stole the money, and it was very likely that someone else stole the money.
Even Wang Li may be dead.
