Chapter 177 The Fish Has Taken the Bait, and a Big One at That
Yao Shula, carrying Yuanbao, tiptoed to the corner of the wall connecting to the Cao family's courtyard and listened carefully.
She heard light footsteps, hushed voices, and, most importantly, the sound of someone picking a lock.
To Yao Shula's ears, that sound was simply heavenly music.
It's finally here! All that hard work and planning has really paid off.
Looking at Yuanbao, who was wagging its tail frantically and trying to whine in her arms, Yao Shula glared at it and gestured for it to shut up...
Yuanbao immediately became obedient and stopped whimpering, only wagging its tail.
Yuanbao didn't understand why Yao Shula wouldn't let it bark, even though there were bad people next door.
However, Yuanbao understands that he has to listen to whoever feeds him every day...
Yao Shula kept listening to the sounds coming from the neighboring yard.
Great, it seems the door lock has been pried open...
Then came the sounds of things being moved. The footsteps were a bit chaotic, but the movements were quite fast. Yao Shula could even clearly hear the sound of a box accidentally hitting the door.
She listened for a while, until the footsteps in the courtyard gradually faded away, before Yao Shula straightened up.
She ripped the cloth off Yuanbao's mouth.
Then he started shouting at the top of his lungs.
"Help! Thief! Someone's stealing!"
Upon hearing Yao Shula shout at the top of her lungs, Yuanbao immediately started shouting at the same time.
At 2:30 a.m., when everyone should be sound asleep, Yao Shula's shout was particularly eerie in the night.
The first thing to react was Grandma Zhou's washbasin next door, which barked wildly after hearing Yao Shula's shout.
The thieves panicked when they heard someone shout.
They ran outside without even thinking...
While running, he also wanted to take the tricycle loaded with goods with him.
result……
As soon as they reached the entrance of the Cao family's courtyard, they were blinded by dozens of flashlights. At the same time, dozens of police officers, who seemed to appear out of nowhere, rushed up and detained the men and their stolen goods.
The neighbors who heard Yao Shula's shout also turned on their lights.
The men from each household hurriedly dressed and ran out.
In the dim light of the streetlights, everyone could see the fully armed police officers and those who had stolen things and were eventually arrested.
Yao Shula also ran over with Yuanbao, accompanied by Zhou Pingan and a washbasin from Grandma Zhou's family.
The washbasin kept barking incessantly.
Yao Shula counted the people who had been pinned to the ground...
There were six people in total, and the leader was none other than Song Yufeng.
Police Officer Wang also escorted someone over from not far away.
"There's also a lookout!"
Yao Shula glanced at him and realized that this was the same person who had been watching her doorstep during the day.
Officer Wang looked at the people his colleagues had arrested, and then at the goods that had already been loaded onto the tricycle.
Now they've been caught red-handed!
"Shura, take these goods to the police station first, and have Liu Hao pick them up from there tomorrow!"
As he spoke, Officer Wang waved his hand, signaling his colleagues to escort the people and goods to the police station.
That's great! With so many people involved and the evidence stolen, this should be considered a major case. The county's public security bureau will definitely give us a commendation.
They need to carefully consider how to write the report. If it's well-written, they might even get a collective commendation at the end of the year!
Yao Shula nodded, watching as Officer Wang took the goods and Song Yufeng and his group away.
Those goods...
Liu Hao and Wang Gongan had already discussed it and knew exactly what goods were placed there.
Liu Hao secretly told Yao Shula that the value of those goods was definitely enough to put these people in jail for ten or eight years...
...
After Wang Gong'an and his men escorted Song Yufeng and his group away, the neighbors who had been called out by Yao Shula lingered and did not leave.
I witnessed a police chase after a thief, and I have to say something about it!
"Shura, how did you find out?" someone asked.
"Yuanbao suddenly cried out, and I thought a thief had broken into our house!"
"It turns out it was the front yard. Liu Hao must have moved his things there during the day, and someone saw it and started watching him," Yao Shula said immediately.
Everyone nodded immediately upon hearing this.
Yes, Liu Hao made quite a commotion during the day, so it's normal that people saw him.
"Hey, people are really different. When we see those nice things, all we think about is making more money to buy them ourselves."
These people, however, are only thinking about stealing!
Now things are really going well; he's going to jail and finally getting a government job.
"Hey, in today's society, you won't starve no matter what you do, so why do these kinds of things!"
"Who says otherwise! Luckily Shura was alert, otherwise they would have stolen all these things."
With everyone chiming in, Yao Shula's mood improved considerably.
These people must have done more than just this one thing; they'll definitely come out with a lot more after the interrogation.
Back then...
Yao Shula breathed a long sigh of relief, finally avenging the original owner of the body.
However, this Song Yufeng is Song Yuling's younger brother. As soon as he arrived in Yun County, he came to cause trouble for her. Song Yuling must have instigated a lot of this.
Song Yuling...
...
As soon as it was light, Yao Shula ran towards the Yao family's old house.
The people in the old house all knew what had happened that night. As soon as Grandma Yao saw Yao Shula enter the house, she quickly grabbed Yao Shula's hand and looked her over from left to right.
"Shula, are you alright?" Grandma Yao looked at Yao Shula with great concern.
"Grandma, I'm fine! Look, I'm perfectly alright, aren't I?" Yao Shula smiled.
Grandma Yao breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that everything is alright!
"You asked Shuxin and Shuli to come over yesterday, why didn't you come over yourself!"
"It's so late at night, and a petty thief has already come in. Aren't you afraid?" Grandma Yao was still shaken.
Yao Shula quickly waved her hand.
"Grandma, I know what I'm doing, nothing will happen!"
Yesterday, I felt my eyelids twitching so badly that I asked Shuxin and Shuli to come and sleep here with you.
I was on high alert even when I slept at night!
Grandma Yao nodded, but still held onto Yao Shula's hand tightly.
Yao Shuxin and Yao Shuli clung tightly to Yao Shula, their hands trembling.
After hearing that a lot of thieves had been caught over there in the morning, their first reaction was to run home.
But Grandma Yao grabbed her.
"Don't you trust your sister to handle things? The fact that she asked you two to come and stay with me means she had some foresight."
Don't cause any trouble! Wait for your sister to come pick you up!
Yao Shula held Grandma Yao's hand and comforted her for a while.
Then he leaned close to Grandma Yao's ear and whispered, "Grandma, do you know who the leader of those thieves is?"
Grandma Yao's eyes suddenly sharpened.
"who?"
“That… Song Yuling’s younger brother!” Yao Shula lowered her voice.
Grandma Yao's hand clenched tightly...
