Chapter 153 The house was emptied again



After Jiang Si smashed all the locks on her house last time, she had a locksmith make a batch of custom locks.

She spent a fortune on the lock on the big iron gate, in particular!

When she bought it, the locksmith confidently assured her that their hardened steel beam lock couldn't be opened with a regular crowbar or hammer.

It's true that they couldn't break it open, otherwise they wouldn't have removed the big iron gate.

"Those bastards!"

The third uncle was so angry that his face turned ashen. "It's one thing for them to come over for a stroll normally, but this time they actually took down the front door while we were away. What's the difference between them and bandits?"

Fortunately, he and Ah Zhong were prepared and took all the valuables with them before leaving.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Si frowned.

She knew it was pointless to ask her third uncle, so she went directly to Uncle Zhong.

"Uncle Zhong, do they come often?"

Uncle Zhong hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Ever since Miss Si Si left, they've come every few days."

It's fine if they come, but the problem is that every time they come, something always seems to go missing from the house.

Originally, he and the old man did not intend to talk about these things.

I never expected these people to go so far this time.

Jiang Si laughed in anger upon hearing this.

Calling these people bandits is an insult to the word "bandits"!

Bandits don't come as often as they do.

Even bandits wouldn't be so unethical, nor would they keep targeting the same person.

Even if the Jiang family has committed some crime, they should not be allowed to bully them time and time again.

Seeing that his wife remained silent, Huo Tingzhou squeezed her hand.

"Don't get upset. Let's go inside first. I'll make a call to the Military Commission. Don't pack these things."

No matter how arrogant and domineering the Red Committee is, Shanghai is not their sole domain.

Jiang Si nodded.

However, going to the Military Commission alone might not be enough. Since we're going to make a scene, let's make it bigger so they won't bother us anymore.

The group already looked grim, and when they entered the courtyard, they saw that the blue bricks had been pried up and were scattered all over the ground.

After more than a dozen large pits were dug in the yard, Jiang Si's anger level soared to its peak.

The courtyard has been ruined by these people, so there's no point in even thinking about what's inside.

As expected, the wardrobe in Jiang Si's room originally had eight doors, but now only three doors remain after it has been moved.

Although the closet only contains some old clothes and old quilts, it still adds up to quite a lot.

Jiang Si glanced around and saw that, apart from the wardrobe, her dressing table, chest of drawers, sofa, chaise lounge, and bookcase had all been moved away.

More than forty pieces of furniture are missing from just these few rooms upstairs.

The situation downstairs is pretty much the same.

The most ridiculous thing is that these people not only moved the furniture, but also replaced all the quilts and mattresses in Uncle San and Uncle Zhong's rooms with junk.

It was not only black and dirty, but it also smelled bad.

The third uncle was so angry that he even wanted to throw away the bed.

After the inventory was almost complete, Jiang Si made a phone call to the local police station.

Upon hearing that the Jiang family's house had been emptied again, the young police officer who answered the phone was completely dumbfounded.

Poor little Jiang!

My stepmother tricked me, and all the valuables in my house were stolen.

The house was emptied again shortly afterward. Isn't this driving that young girl to the brink of despair?

Immediately afterwards, Huo Tingzhou also made a phone call to the Military Commission.

The police officers arrived a little earlier, just like a few months ago.

When they arrived, the Jiang family's doorway was already crowded with neighbors who wanted to watch the spectacle.

Coincidentally, Deputy Director Li was once again leading the team this time.

Seeing this, Jiang Si stepped forward and greeted him, "Deputy Director Li, I'm sorry to trouble you again this time."

Deputy Director Li waved his hand, "When something like this happens in our jurisdiction, it's partly our responsibility."

As he spoke, he looked around.

On his way there, all he knew was that the Jiang family had been robbed again.

Unexpectedly, this thief was so arrogant.

The courtyard was dug up so much that there was nowhere to step, and the house was emptied out.

Deputy Director Li was so angry that he was stunned for a long time. "Do these people have no respect for the law?!"

At this moment, the police officer in charge of taking the statement walked in from outside.

"Deputy Director—"

Seeing that he stammered for a long time without being able to say a complete sentence, Deputy Director Li glared at him.

“Just say what you want to say. What’s with all this beating around the bush?”

The other party could only tell the truth, "Deputy Director, this matter is not easy to handle."

"What do you mean by 'difficult to handle'?" Deputy Director Li turned to look at him.

Meeting Deputy Director Li's puzzled gaze, the police officer forced himself to speak.

"Those people who came to move things this time weren't ordinary petty thieves; they were from the Red Committee..."

"Does the Red Cross Committee have the right to take things away from other people's homes in broad daylight?"

The police officer was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

Everyone looked up and saw that several men in Type 65 military uniforms had entered the courtyard sometime earlier.

The leader had a square face and large eyes; he was currently frowning as he observed everything in the courtyard.

Although the public security bureau and the military belong to two different systems, Deputy Director Li recognized the man at a glance.

This person is none other than Comrade Hu Anbang, the director of the Shanghai Military Commission.

This reminds me of the inquiry call I received a few months ago from the 4th Naval Aviation Division.

Deputy Director Li immediately understood.

It seems the Military Commission members are here to support their own people.

The moment that thought crossed my mind, I heard Director Hu's cold snort.
