Chapter 111: Broken Jar
Cheng Zhuoyue and Shen Zhuyi returned to the Youth League Home together. The village chief stood there with a grim face. The group of people didn't know what the result of their discussion was, and they looked unhappy.
As soon as he saw Chen Zhu coming back, the village chief's face became even uglier. He glanced at Cheng Zhuoyue and said, "I think it's better for us to resolve this matter privately, so as not to embarrass everyone. What do you think?"
It seems like they have already come up with a solution.
"I don't think it's good. It's not me who did this. Even if Chen Wantang really went too far, at most he could be forcibly sent away. It won't affect me." Looking at the sharp eyes of the village chief, Chen Zhuyi narrowed his eyes and said deliberately: "Even the situation at Huo Jinzhi's home will not affect me."
If the Huo family thinks she is not a good person just because she has a shameful sister, then there is no need for her to waste any more time.
"You little girl, why are you so stubborn?" The village chief said helplessly. He really wanted to tap Shen Zhuyi on the head twice as a reminder, but he saw her coldly take two steps back and distance herself from these people.
"We are here today to solve the problem. Just say what you want to say. I will not allow you to just pass it by." Chen Zhu said seriously and stared at them with sharp eyes.
Such words made the village chief look a little unhappy. He could only smile at Cheng Zhuoyue and said reluctantly: "How about...Officer Cheng, you go out for a while and wait for us to explain it to her clearly?"
Secretary Chen was also smart. He reached out and pulled Cheng Zhuoyue outside, with a hint of flattery in his tone: "We also think that they can communicate well on this matter."
Cheng Zhuoyue first glanced at Chen Zhuyi, and when he saw her nod, he followed her out.
"Have you found the murderer?" Chen Zhu looked at their expressions and expressed his concern directly.
But beneath this concern, there is an irony that is hard to conceal.
If they really wanted to bring the murderer to justice, they shouldn't have come to discuss it with Chen Zhu now, but should have directly handed the murderer to Cheng Zhuoyue.
"Your sister has woken up, and she doesn't want to continue making trouble like this. Don't you want to respect the ideas of this female comrade?" The village chief said this first, carefully observing Chen Zhuyi's expression.
Facing their cautiousness, Chen Zhuyi just smiled slightly: "She didn't want to pursue it just now, but I can't. I also have four female comrades, and the environment I live in is so dangerous, so of course it's better to find out."
This was the rhetoric that Niu Chenggong had just used to coax Chen Zhuyi and persuade her to come back and live with him. Now, Chen Zhuyi had returned it to him, but with a completely different attitude.
"It won't be good for anyone if things get out of hand. Why are you so persistent? Do you want to ruin your sister?" The village chief tried to persuade her.
But Chen Zhuyi was unmoved: "Either you hand over the real murderer and deal with him as you wish, or you don't need to persuade me and wait for Officer Cheng to investigate thoroughly. That's enough."
Such persistence made the village chief grit his teeth and squeezed out a sentence with difficulty: "Okay, then don't regret it!"
Of course, Shen Zhuyi would not regret it. She asked the village chief to call Cheng Zhuoyue in, and she walked into the room and looked at Shen Wantang who was lying on the bed: "If you are not dead, open your eyes."
With Shen Wantang's personality, it is impossible for her to be in a coma. She herself does not care about these things at all.
Ye Xumei sat nearby and watched, observing the surroundings with caution. She did not find any clues that could lead to a breakthrough, but she noticed that her locked cabinet seemed to have obvious signs of being touched by someone else.
"Did you touch my things?" Ye Xumei asked subconsciously, with a subtle sharpness in her eyes.
Chen Wantang's eyelids twitched and she immediately shook her head. She had too many things to deal with right now. If she added theft to the mix, she would have nothing to explain to anyone. She shook her head like a wave drum.
"I didn't touch your things. Even if something is lost, you can't put the blame on me! Besides, isn't this locked?" Shen Wantang said it as a matter of course, as if if it was locked, there was no way to pry it open.
Ye Xumei didn't say whether he believed it or not. After a quick check, he frowned.
Chen Zhu glared at Chen Wantang and didn't vouch for her: "When Officer Cheng comes in later, you should tell him everything you know and what you can and can't say. You don't need anyone to teach you how to do it, right?"
"I don't think there's any need to make a big deal out of this matter..." Chen Wantang was still struggling. Chen Zhu raised his hand and slammed the table hard. The soft sound had already shocked her.
"If you don't want to cooperate, get out. People like you are not welcome on this island."
"You should know very well how much a local tyrant can do."
"Besides... you don't want Zhao Anche to know about this, right?"
When Zhao Anche was mentioned, Shen Wantang's expression suddenly turned bad. Her lips moved, and she bit her lips carefully and snorted softly.
"That person should have walked in directly through the main door. Our door lock doesn't show any signs of being pried. Did you leave the door open on purpose, or... did you open it for him?"
When Ye Xumei said this, his face couldn't help but look unhappy. Chen Wantang looked like he was going to die in the morning, and insisted that they bear the price, but in the end he was the one who robbed the company!
"No, I don't. I really don't know what happened last night!" Shen Wantang immediately spoke loudly, as if his voice was loud enough to suppress other people's suspicions.
But this little action made Ye Xumei even more suspicious of her: "Can you really not remember it?"
Chen Wantang turned his head to the side like a broken jar, and he could keep his secret by not looking at Ye Xumei.
"I didn't expect that you've been here for such a short time, but you've been able to hook up with someone in advance. You're really amazing." Chen Zhu sighed, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
Cheng Zhuoyue came over at this time. He felt vaguely that he seemed to have eaten something extraordinary, but he still looked at Shen Wantang sitting on the bed with his usual expression.
"Didn't you see that man when you woke up this morning? Are you just judging from the marks on your body that you've experienced those things?"
As soon as he entered the working state, Cheng Zhuoyue's eyes became more serious and he asked several key questions seriously.
In order to facilitate their work and as they were far away from home, these educated youth usually had to get up early, not to mention that there were people to cook.
