Chapter 363 Go back and wait for news
Huo Xinran won the argument.
So after a short while, we heard a lot of cracking and popping inside, which sounded like two people were fighting.
If it's just an argument, then everyone can just watch the show, but if it's a fight, then that's unacceptable.
How can you fight?
So the people outside started to loudly persuade them.
"Let's talk things out calmly, please don't fight."
"Yes, it's normal for couples to argue. You must never resort to violence."
No matter how much people outside tried to persuade them, the people inside didn't stop, and the fighting even got louder.
Zhang Weihong quickly smashed the glass.
Cai Wenhua and Huo Xinran were fighting; the two were grappling with each other, and it looked very intense.
Huo Xinran's hair was a mess, her clothes were disheveled, and she was covered in blood. Cai Wenhua wasn't in much better shape either; he was covered in injuries, and one of his legs appeared to be limping. It was clear that they had fought fiercely.
Zhang Weihong and her sisters-in-law quickly separated them, saying, "Honestly, what are you all doing? Talk things out, why are you fighting?"
Huo Xinran clutched her stomach, saying in discomfort, "Quick, take me to the clinic."
Cai Wenhua quickly added, "Take me there too."
So both of them were sent to the clinic for treatment.
They were seriously injured and spent a long time receiving treatment at the clinic before being released.
Once they got home, the first thing they did was pick up the things they had left outside.
After some time, someone put their things in the corner of the wall so that they wouldn't block everyone's way.
This was, after all, a military dependents' compound, and everyone knew each other and was aware of Cai Wenhua and Huo Xinran's affair, so no one dared to openly take their things.
The two quickly moved the items back into the house.
But those people might not dare to take their large furniture, and it's uncertain about smaller items.
"Where are my gold necklace and gold bracelet?" Huo Xinran suddenly screamed.
She searched through everything but couldn't find it.
Actually, when she threw the things away, she thought that someone else might pick them up, but she was too angry at the time and couldn't think of anything else. Later, she got injured and stayed in the clinic to recover, so she couldn't remember what she threw away.
Cai Wenhua then screamed in despair, "My watch is gone!"
They cleaned it up again and found that it was indeed gone.
All the other large items were still there, but the gold and the watch were missing, and these items, though small, were extremely expensive.
That watch was new; Cai Wenhua had only bought it recently. He went home specifically to wear it and show it off, but now it's all gone.
Huo Xinran's heart was bleeding too.
She coaxed Cai Wenhua into paying for the gold, and that's how she bought it. Gold is always valuable, and everyone likes it.
Now it's all over, nothing's left.
Cai Wenhua couldn't help but complain, "It's all your fault. Our family was already very poor, and now you've squandered the only thing of value we had. I'm so unlucky to have married you."
Huo Xinran was also furious: "You threw that watch away yourself, it has nothing to do with me."
She's lost her gold, and she's extremely anxious. She has to find it herself.
Huo Xinran didn't have time to argue with Cai Wenhua. She rushed out and happened to run into Shen Zhixia. She quickly said, "Sister-in-law, my gold has been stolen. Can you help me find it?"
Shen Zhixia was stunned for a moment: "Gold?"
These days, stealing is a serious crime, especially stealing gold. While the price of gold isn't high right now, it's still not something ordinary people can afford.
This is a military dependents' compound. Logically speaking, no one should be so bold as to be here. I never expected to find a thief here.
"Yes, it's my gold bracelet and gold necklace. I had a fight with Cai Wenhua that day, and in a fit of anger, I threw them out the window. Now I can't find them."
Huo Xinran said angrily, "Someone must have stolen it from me. Do you remember who was outside that day?"
She believed that Shen Zhixia couldn't have stolen the items. After all, Shen Zhixia was much better off than her. Huo Chenzhou's high salary was said to all go to Shen Zhixia, so Shen Zhixia certainly wouldn't care about her meager earnings.
It must have been stolen by someone else.
Shen Zhixia: "..."
She also thought about that day.
Huo Xinran threw the things out, and someone picked them up, which makes it a bit difficult to judge. If it's defined as theft, it doesn't quite count as theft, since Huo Xinran threw the things herself. However, everyone in the same residential compound should know that they were just arguing and didn't really not want the items anymore, so simply picking them up is actually quite unethical.
Shen Zhixia shook her head and said, "There were too many people that day, and I didn't notice who picked up your things."
Most importantly, perhaps no one picked up her things that day, but rather someone else did so in the following days.
After all, Cai Wenhua and Huo Xinran had stayed at the clinic for a period of time, and during that time, the things they threw away were always outside, so anyone could easily take them.
There are no security cameras around, so who can tell who it is?
"Isn't there any other way?" Huo Xinran asked dejectedly.
She was about to cry.
Even when she argued with Cai Wenhua, she wasn't this sad. But when she found out she had lost her gold, she was devastated.
She didn't regret arguing with Cai Wenhua, but she did regret throwing things away.
Shen Zhixia said, "You can try reporting it to the police."
But she knew that even if she reported it to the police, the chances of finding it were too low.
With so many people in the military dependents' compound, anyone could take her things, especially since she threw them out the window on her own initiative. There's simply no way to reason with anyone about it.
Just then, Cai Wenhua came out and said anxiously, "My watch is also missing. Can you help me find it?"
Shen Zhixia: "..."
Anyway, she can't.
In the end, they didn't report the matter to the police, but instead reported it to Huo Chenzhou.
This incident occurred within the military dependents' compound, and it was indeed under Huo Chenzhou's jurisdiction.
Huo Chenzhou said seriously, "Someone is actually stealing something?"
The people living here are either soldiers or their families. If someone were to steal something, that would be a truly heinous act.
Shen Zhixia then told him what had happened.
"They threw their things outside and never came home, so someone picked them up."
Huo Chenzhou: "?"
One sentence completely drained his CPU; he had no idea what Shen Zhixia meant.
People actually throw valuables outside? Shouldn't gold be kept inside the house?
Shen Zhixia said, "They were arguing, so they threw their things out the window."
Does that mean that someone who isn't pure is a great victim of injustice?
He wanted to give the gold away to others.
Now that the gold is gone, they still have the nerve to come and complain to him.
Huo Chenzhou immediately lost interest. He hummed in agreement and said, "I understand. I will record this. If you have nothing else to do, you can leave now."
Cai Wenhua pleaded pitifully, "Deputy Division Commander Huo, could you please find my watch?"
Find it?
With so many people in the military dependents' compound, where do we find them?
These people were just passing by and taking things as they pleased; they never even went into their rooms. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack—it was simply impossible to find them.
He's not planning to look anymore.
Of course, such words should not be said aloud.
Huo Chenzhou smiled and said, "Go back and wait for news."
