Chapter 277 The House Was Sold
The next day, after the class ended in the morning, Zhao Shengrui went to the cafeteria to eat lunch, then returned to the dormitory to get the envelope and went to the post office. He stayed in the post office for more than ten minutes, got his business done, and then came out.
I originally wanted to go back to Houhai to see the house, but the lunch break was not very long, and I was worried that I would not have enough time, so I could only wait until the next holiday to go and see it.
But my wife's house seems to be right here, not far away. Can I go and see how the house is going for him?
When I arrived at the place where my wife had taken me last time, I found the door was open. I hurried forward to check and saw many people coming in and out.
"Excuse me, who are you? Why are you here? This is my wife's house. Who gave you the right to come in?"
A man in his 30s wearing glasses came over and said, "Excuse me, we are from the street office. No one has come to this house for more than two years. The neighbors said that this person was missing. Then we observed and found that the owner of this house really hasn't been back for a long time. Originally, the owner of this house was gone, so we wanted to take the house back and rent it to neighbors who have no houses to live in. Sir, do you have evidence to prove that this house belongs to Er Ai?"
Zhao Shengrui saw that he was speaking politely, so he was not so angry anymore. He took out his military ID and showed it to him. "My wife is in the north, and I came here to study at the military academy. If you need evidence, you can wait for half a month and I will ask my wife to mail it to you. But the house is indeed owned by me, and living next door can prove it. I don't know why you told the neighbors that the house is not owned. Please investigate this aspect clearly."
The middle-aged man looked at his military ID and found that there was indeed no problem with it. The documents were all authentic, so he knew that this matter would be difficult to handle. Originally, he had heard that the house belonged to a little girl whose parents were martyrs and who were unwilling to come.
But what could he do? His family gave him a lot of money, and he thought he hadn't seen the girl for several years. He asked around and found out that she had gone to the countryside. He thought the biggest possibility was that she got married and moved to another place. Generally, it was difficult for people to come back after going to the countryside, so he didn't care.
I didn't expect to be caught by my husband as soon as I came in to see the house. I could only try my best to give him a satisfactory answer and not make things worse.
"Don't worry, we will investigate this matter thoroughly. We are the ones who offended them today. We will take them away immediately."
There were people looking at houses nearby, including a woman in her 40s or 50s, who was shouting and refusing to leave. "I won't leave. I spent so much money to buy this house. This house belongs to me. If you don't give me an exchange, I will stay here and won't leave."
As soon as Zhao Shengrui heard it, he knew that there was something going on inside that he didn't know. At this moment, there were also many people watching the excitement outside. They were all workers who were at work and came back to eat. They just happened to run into them and didn't want too many people to watch the excitement and create a mess here.
He called a teenage boy outside and said, "Young man, go to the police station and call a few more people over. Tell them that there is property occupation here."
When the young man heard this, he nodded and ran out. The middle-aged woman was unhappy when she heard this, "I didn't invade your property. I bought this house in the first place. I have the evidence."
"I don't want to talk to you right now. I'll go to the police station and explain it to you. Almost all the neighbors here have watched my wife grow up. She just went to the countryside, and her family sold her house after only two years. I think you should give me an explanation."
When the middle-aged woman heard what he said, her eyes rolled. After all, she knew how to buy the house. She grabbed her husband and wanted to run away, thinking that as long as she couldn't be caught, he would definitely not have time to keep watching the house.
Zhao Shengrui knew what she was up to. Seeing her eyes rolling around, he knew she was not honest, so he blocked the door and said, "No one can leave until things are clear today?"
Fortunately, the Public Security Bureau was not far away. After about ten minutes, four police officers came. Zhao Shengrui knew one of them. He had served in the army under him before. His name was Zhong Xiaoming. He was a pretty good young man, but he later retired from the army and joined the public security system.
"Old squad leader, why are you here?"
Zhao Shengrui thought it would be easier to handle things if he was familiar with the people. "I asked the young man to call you over. Since you were here, I told you directly that this house belongs to my wife. She went to the countryside two years ago. I didn't expect that the house would become ownerless. I had nothing to do, so I came here to take a look. I saw them looking at houses here. This female comrade said that she bought the house. Please investigate it clearly. The owner is not here. How did she buy the house?"
The middle-aged woman was a little scared when she saw the police coming. Now she saw that the husband of the former owner of the house was acquainted with the police, and she was even more frightened and turned herself in immediately.
"This is really none of our business. I bought it from someone else. He told me that the house was empty and that someone had died inside, so there was nothing to buy. He sold it to me quietly for only 400 yuan. I thought, the house is so big, and 400 yuan is so cheap, he must be selling it to me because he is familiar with me. I was also afraid that if everyone knew about it, many people would snatch it up, so I bought it secretly."
The middle-aged woman cried with tears and snot, and while crying she stole glances at Zhao Shengrui and the police officers nearby. Her acting was so good that the people around her were stunned.
"I know who owns this house, so I definitely won't buy it. I really don't know!"
"Then you should tell him clearly about the sale of your house. We will verify it after we find him. If it is confirmed that what you said is true, then you will be fine. If you are spreading rumors, don't blame us for being rude."
The middle-aged woman gritted her teeth and pointed directly at the street office next to her and said, "The one who introduced me said he was his relative. We often see each other. I saw that they were very familiar with each other, so I believed him. Who knew he was a liar?"
The street office staff was terrified at this moment, and no longer concealed it and said to the police, "I'm not familiar with him, but I often ran into him in the past month or two, so I felt that we were destined to be together. Then he invited me to dinner a few times, and we gradually became familiar with each other. I really didn't know. The first time I met this lady, we just came out of a restaurant and drank a little, and then we walked back shoulder to shoulder. I knew I was cheated, and I definitely won't eat or drink with him."
