Thinking of the steamed bun in his arms, he went back and asked his mother to boil a pot of water and soak the bun in it, which was enough to feed their family of six.
Thinking of this, he released his grip on Dai Qingxia's clothes and pointed to a row of warehouses at the back, saying, "Open the door. There are good things inside."
Dai Qingxia was a little confused. She knew about the warehouses at the back. After all, when they were arranging people to live there, a group of staff came to check. In the end, they found the first few rows of warehouses to arrange for people to move in, and the ones at the back were always empty.
There is not even a single piece of junk in there, let alone any good stuff.
I could only ask again: "Little boy, what's inside? How did you know? Who told you?"
But the child was only about three years old, and he couldn't explain many things clearly. He could only repeat the words he had just said: "Open the door, there are good things."
In short, no matter what, he never mentioned Jiang Mengxue.
Of course, it’s not because he is so smart that he knows not to expose Jiang Mengxue.
He did this simply because he was worried that if he told others, someone would come and steal his steamed buns.
One steamed bun is not enough for his own family, what if others come?
Last time, my brother went out and asked for half a multi-grain steamed bun. His family cooked a pot of porridge, which was so delicious. He wanted to eat more and didn’t want to share it with others.
Seeing that she really couldn't get anything out of him, Dai Qingxia didn't plan to ask anymore. Anyway, she just had to open the door and take a look to know what was inside.
But if she is not here, the police will have to be called in to maintain order.
It was obvious that this child was being taken advantage of. They were worried that there might be something bad inside, so they absolutely could not open it.
He ordered the two clerks who followed him to call people, while Dai Qingxia stayed behind to wait.
I originally wanted to call Li Jun away as well, but I was worried that he would say something annoying if he left my sight, so it would be better to keep him in front of me.
There was already quite a bit of commotion here, and the police were originally heading this way, but they met the people who were looking for them on the way.
The person who came from the Housing Authority was of course Gu Huaiju, and this area was also under her management.
The public security comrades set up a cordon to prevent people from approaching, and some people were on guard with guns.
A police officer went forward with a key to open the door, while two police officers pointed their guns at the door in case anything happened.
The moment the door lock was opened, a solemn atmosphere filled the air. Everyone was very nervous, and some people even leaned sideways, thinking that they could run away immediately if anything happened.
But when the door was completely opened, the scene inside shocked everyone.
No one spoke for a moment, as if they were frightened. Even several public security comrades didn't know how to react.
I saw that the warehouse was filled with big orange pumpkins, each of which looked to weigh at least ten or twenty pounds.
There was a huge pile of grain bags against the wall, and you could tell at a glance that they were grain.
"Oh my god, I'm not hallucinating, am I? Are there gods? Are there gods appearing?"
"What do you mean? Maybe it was arranged by the leaders."
The man next to him looked at him as if he was stupid and said, "Are you stupid? Didn't you listen to what Director Dai said just now? If it was really arranged by the leaders, why would they tell us that there was no food?
If it was placed somewhere else, we wouldn't know about it anyway, but since it's placed where we live, then the leaders must not know about it either. Let's see what they say."
As he spoke, he stretched his head to look inside, trying to hear the voices of the people inside clearly.
The group of people standing behind the crowd were also very surprised. How come they didn’t know there were so many pumpkins here?
This group of people is the leadership team from above. They went to inspect the lower level today. They originally went to the street, but I heard that Dai Qingxia and others were called away. I heard that something happened.
It is already a turbulent time, and with the recent incident of Director Chen's corruption, several leaders are a little worried, so they followed over to check out the situation.
They had originally planned to show up after hearing what Li Jun said. They absolutely could not let a few words from a small clerk cause a big incident.
But they didn't expect that the warehouse would be opened before they could say anything, and they just had to wait and see what would happen.
Seeing the large warehouse of grain, several people could no longer hold back and squeezed in from the edge of the crowd. The police who were surrounding them outside wanted to stop them, but when they saw their clothes and temperament, they didn't dare to say anything for a moment. Instead, they politely asked them what was the matter.
Without waiting for the leader to speak, the subordinates behind him had already produced their work certificates.
When the public security comrades saw the other party's identity, they dared not to look at him anymore and immediately set up a cordon to let him in.
The person who came this time is no ordinary person, he is the mayor of Qinghe City, Wang Congjun.
Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Ding Qihua and Director of the Grain Bureau Wu Zhongming.
Jiang Mengxue knew all these people; they all came to her wedding.
They were all Gu's father's former comrades-in-arms and now hold high positions.
I just didn't expect that they would come together this time.
As the mayor, Wang Congjun is at the level of a full-time department head and the highest-ranking among the few people, so he naturally walks in front.
Dai Qingxia and the others were just clerks in the street office. They had only seen Wang Congjun from afar when they were handling Director Chen's case. Now that they saw the mayor coming over, they felt a little scared.
She hasn't figured out what's going on yet. If she's held accountable, she'll be wrongly killed.
After all, the surrounding areas are under her management. If such an incredible thing happens suddenly, and she is accused of supernatural activities, it will be a huge trouble.
Especially when she saw her immediate superior following behind the mayor, she felt even more bitter. If she had known earlier, she would have found an opportunity to leave today. Who would have known that she would end up in such a mess?
While she was still thinking about how to face her superiors, the public security officer who opened the warehouse door called out.
"There's a discovery."
Everyone's attention was attracted again, and Wang Congjun didn't care about being calm and walked forward to ask.
"What did you find?"
The young public security officer hadn't even opened the envelope to check the contents yet, but he turned around when he heard someone asking him a question.
He was a little surprised to see the person coming, but fortunately he was not too scared. Instead, he stepped forward and handed the envelope to Wang Congjun.
"This envelope was found on a pumpkin. It looked like someone left it there on purpose. I just don't know what was written inside."
Wang Congjun looked at the envelope from top to bottom to make sure there was nothing inside.
He also noticed with vigilance that many people outside were looking at him, or to be more precise, at the envelope in his hand. He was not sure whether the contents inside could be made public, so he simply put the letter into his pocket, attracting everyone's attention again.
