Chapter 26 If the money is traced, he will go to jail!
Without waiting for Gu Wanxing to answer, Zhao Chengyan cast his gaze on several village cadres and complained earnestly:
"Uncle Wang, Uncle Zhao, look at what's going on! The house has been completely emptied out. Everything is gone. Even the shovel under the south wall has been taken away."
"Have you looked around? Are there any wheel tracks? No matter how it was moved, there must be traces. It's impossible that there aren't even any tracks, right?"
Zhao Weiguo sucked his teeth and asked with a frown.
He had just checked and found that all the corns hanging on the courtyard wall were gone. It was conceivable that there must be quite a lot of people here.
How could one person empty a house in one night?
Zhao Chengyan shook his head: "I checked, there's nothing, and I didn't hear any movement around."
"this……"
Wang Weiguo walked forward, leaned into the grain cabinet and took a closer look, then looked under the cabinet carefully.
There were indeed no footprints on the ground except those of the mother and son.
The west room is a side room, especially the exposed beams. People don't come here often, so the floor is covered with dust.
Now, apart from a few footprints, one large and one small, on the ground, it can be seen that no one has ever set foot here.
This is a bit difficult.
Village Committee Director Zhao Jiandang looked around the west room, even the small windowsill, and wondered, "Hey! This is incredible! What kind of bandit is this? Is our village facing bandits?"
"Go, stop talking nonsense. What era is this? You're still a bandit? I think you look like a bandit!"
The deputy director stroked his shiny, motionless hair and retorted unhappily.
The old man has white hair, but he is very Westernized. He claims to be an educated person. He oils his hair every day and he doesn't get along with Zhao Jiandang. Zhao Jiandang is younger than him, but he is one level higher than him in rank, so he is very dissatisfied.
The three leading cadres walked around the Zhao family's house several times. The more they looked, the more frightened they became. In the end, their faces turned pale.
There really was no trace at all, as if the things had disappeared out of thin air.
Gu Wanxing went to his fifth grandmother's house to borrow a few bowls, brought back a pot of hot water, and also borrowed a few benches and a small kang table.
In the shade under the tree in the yard, I poured some water and placed it on a small table.
"Uncle, why don't you go sit over there? The light in the room is not good."
She knew that the three cadres must be waiting for the police to arrive, and the town police would not drive unless there were special circumstances.
The most I can do is ride a bicycle. Although it's close, I'm busy with official duties after all, so it will probably take at least an hour. It would be good enough if I can get to your door.
"Okay, let's go outside first, ah..."
Ever since Wang Weiguo came to the Zhao family, he has been sighing constantly. He has never encountered such a thing in his fifty years of life.
Liu Xifeng sat on the empty kang, wiping her tears as she looked at the photo frames on the wall. There were some old photos on them, one of which was of Zhao Chengyan's father.
It looks like he's missing the old man.
"Mom, you should go out too. It's cold in the room."
Zhao Chengyan cautiously walked forward and tugged at his mother's arm. His mother didn't cry or make a fuss, which made her even more frightening.
Liu Xifeng was very angry at this moment. She felt like the sky had fallen and there was no hope for the future.
"You bastard, you don't listen to me. Maybe it was that little bitch who colluded with others to steal our house."
She thought about it and realized that so many things happened at home in the past few days after Gu Yuerou came.
First, Zhao Chao fell into the water, and since then, strange things have continued to happen. The quarrels at home were also caused by her visit.
Who else could it be but her?
"Mom... Yue Rou didn't come today, could you please stop talking nonsense!"
Gu Wanxing, who was eavesdropping in the outer room, sneered. Listen, it's already this late and they're still quibbling. She was finally certain that the two were truly in love. She hoped that they would be locked away for the rest of their lives and not harm others.
"Didn't she come yesterday? Zhao Chengyan's family is in such a state, and you are still speaking well of Gu Yuerou. Do you have the next meal planned? Or are you satisfied just by looking at Gu Yuerou?"
Her tone was indifferent, and her expression was not only indifferent but also a little sarcastic.
Liu Xifeng, who was almost fooled by her son, instantly regained her senses. Yes, it was her fault.
She stood up, raised her hand, and slapped Zhao Chengyan.
Snap——
The slapping sound was so clear and loud that it startled the three cadres outside and made them all stretch their necks to look into the room.
"Evil beast, bastard, ungrateful wolf."
Liu Xifeng glared at her son viciously and left the house angrily.
As he passed by the door, Gu Wanxing was also met with her fierce gaze.
But she didn't care at all.
The police didn't make them wait too long. They soon arrived at Zhao's house on a bicycle that made all the noise except the bell.
The gates were all open, so two public security comrades, one old and one young, rode directly into the yard.
"Excuse me, was your house robbed?"
In fact, when I asked for the address on the way, I had already heard a rough idea from those female comrades.
So people asked directly.
Hearing the sound, Gu Wanxing hurried out of the house, followed by Zhao Chengyan, whose cheeks were swollen.
At that time, Wang Weiguo and the other two had already stood up and went to greet them.
After a simple greeting.
The three of them spoke one after another before recounting what had happened.
The two public security comrades frowned upon hearing this.
"Who called the police?"
The older police officer glanced at everyone in the yard one by one.
Finally, his eyes fell on Gu Wanxing's face.
He answered the phone and could tell it was the voice of a young lesbian.
"I was the one who called the police." Gu Wanxing said truthfully.
"You tell me the details, don't speak together, otherwise it's easy to overlook the details."
The public security comrades almost said, "Stop arguing, it's making my head buzz."
Wang Weiguo nodded solemnly: "Yes, Cheng Yan's wife, you go ahead and speak."
Gu Wanxing nodded: "I hadn't even gotten up yet this morning when Zhao Chengyan came over and kicked in my door..."
She did not exaggerate at all and explained the matter again, focusing on the key points.
Hearing this, the old policeman nodded repeatedly with an appreciative look. After all, the ability to express oneself is also a kind of "knowledge".
Some people are very talkative, but they just can't get to the point, giving people a noisy feeling.
"You mean you and your wife are the only ones at home?"
The young policeman was a good listener and grasped the key point immediately.
"Yes, something happened in our family recently. We are getting a divorce because of a woman..."
"Gu Wanxing—why do you say everything?"
At this time, Zhao Chengyan, who was standing aside, finally couldn't help it and spoke out angrily with a flushed face.
Gu Wanxing didn't even glance at him. She spoke directly and truthfully, "At first, he said he lost a note worth 15,000 yuan. I didn't know about this amount of money. We are both workers. Zhao Chengyan earns 70 yuan a month, and each of us can only save 700 or 800 yuan a year. So I was skeptical about the lost note. However... Zhao Chengyan agreed to lend the money to Gu Yuerou. It was the woman who came to my house and asked for it herself. I heard she came yesterday. I don't know what happened specifically."
When everyone heard the price of fifteen thousand, they all looked surprised.
Especially the village cadres, who looked at Zhao Chengyan with shock in their eyes.
Zhao Chengyan's face was filled with dejection...
It's over, completely over. If the money is traced, he will go to jail!
At this moment, he was extremely panicked and just asked the police not to ask about the source of the money.
Just when everyone was shocked and wanted to wait for Zhao Chengyan to give an explanation, a familiar figure suddenly walked in at the gate of the yard.
"Ayan..." Gu Yuerou walked in slowly from outside the door and called softly.
