Chapter 45 Did she steal the chicken?
How could Lu Qiaoge have the time to go to Red Star Lake?
The next morning she put on her rain boots and went to work.
There are still many dilapidated houses and those located in low-lying areas near the military factory.
The rainstorm last night was terrible.
It was as if the sky was leaking, and the ditches below were full and level.
The Lu family's kitchen was flooded. As soon as the rain stopped, the Lu family got up to drain the yard and check the utility room. Fortunately, they were prepared and the food and other things were placed in a high place.
The swallow's nest was fine, as the naughty swallows flew out early in the morning to look for insects.
Meng Xia filled out the form nervously but happily. Lao Lu carefully put it in his bag and rode his bike to work.
While walking on the road, Lu Qiaoge saw that the roadside ditches were full of water, and the branches of the old locust trees broken by the wind were floating in the water.
The cadres from the subdistrict office arrived quite early. Director Hu called Lu Qiaoge, "You and Shao Le follow Officer Liu to the West 45th District to investigate. The chickens and ducks raised by the people there were stolen. These bastards are simply taking advantage of the fire to rob. No, no, no, they are taking advantage of the rain to rob. They even pushed an old man down. Now he is in the hospital..."
Deputy Director Huang said: "The police station said that this is a habitual offender. He must have known that there would be a storm at night, so he ran out to steal things. They are also investigating. There are more than 30 households whose things were stolen last night, but most of them were chickens and ducks."
Ren Xiaocui said worriedly, "It's hard to check. The heavy rain last night was so heavy that it would wash away a lot of traces."
Shao Le asked: "Can't we see the footprints?"
Officer Liu: "Even if there were footprints, they have been destroyed long ago."
When the three of them arrived at West 45th District, they saw many people busying around.
Some were in a hurry to get to work, some were in a hurry to drain the yard, and some were standing on ladders to check the roof.
"Comrades from the street office are here!" Someone shouted, and the crowd gathered together automatically made way.
The investigation should start from the first one.
Lu Qiaoge took out a notebook from his bag and listened to Aunt Wang who came over to talk about what happened last night.
"It was raining heavily last night, and I heard some noise in the chicken coop..." Aunt Wang clenched her skinny hands and continued, "I was worried, so I quickly put on my raincoat and went out. Then I saw a figure climbing over the wall of my house with a bag on his back..."
Officer Liu asked, "Did you see what the other person looks like?"
Aunt Wang shook her head: "Last night's heavy rain and wind were so scary. How could I see what the other person looked like?"
They only stole chickens and ducks, and it was obvious that it was done by the local thugs and street urchins.
By this time, it might have been stewed and eaten.
As for the aroma of the chicken...
They are not stupid, it is impossible for them to eat in the staff quarters, so the place where the stolen goods are sold cannot be close to here.
A family behind came over and told Officer Liu: "You guys go to my house first. My chicken coop collapsed and three chickens were injured. Oh, I saw footprints next to the chicken coop. Are they from the thief?"
As they walked, Officer Liu asked, "Are your chickens still there?"
"The chicken wasn't lost, but a duck was."
Lu Qiaoge and her companions arrived at the backyard. She looked towards the collapsed chicken coop. Three wet chickens were huddled under the broken tiles, their orange beaks opening and closing.
There is no voice from the heart, not even a single word can be heard.
Either it was horrified or it just didn't spin out.
At this time, several police officers came over here.
Secretary Liu hurried over to greet him.
These are the public security police officers from Xiangyang Street Police Station.
Li Gongan measured the footprints with a tape measure, and Officer Liu asked, "Have you got any clues over there?"
Li Gongan said: "The rain washed away the evidence, and I couldn't see the old lady's face clearly, so I couldn't see her features..."
Someone in the crowd who followed said angrily: "Who would do such a sneaky thing if they have a real job? I think they are unemployed youth or educated youth who have returned to the city."
"They were all wandering around and not doing their jobs. I knew something would happen sooner or later. Look, there were more than a hundred chickens and ducks stolen. It was definitely not done by one person, but by a large group of people!"
"I suggest arresting all the educated youth who have returned to the city and are unemployed, regardless of gender. We will definitely be able to find out what is going on."
Shen Yun, who was standing in the crowd, sneered and took a few steps back.
She stared at Lu Qiaoge coldly. She didn't expect that reporting him was useless and that this bitch actually got in.
She is very passive now and doesn't even dare to meet Liang Aishu.
Uncle Liang is the vice chairman of the trade union and my father is the logistics director.
They all want reputation, so they are stricter than before.
When Lu Qiaoge is around, they can chat freely. Without Lu Qiaoge, why can't they even speak?
If Lu Qiaoge could remember their old friendship and cancel the engagement quietly, how could she and Liang Aishu be in such a passive situation?
Today’s excitement was not in vain, as what those people said just now reminded her.
Lu Qiaoling is an educated youth who went to the countryside. His household registration is in the countryside and he currently has no job.
According to regulations, you are not allowed to stay in the city without reason.
She works in the factory's labor and personnel department. A few days ago, the section chief said that some of the educated youth who had stayed there without reason would be repatriated.
Shen Yun got on her bicycle and headed towards the office.
She has to go to work today and she wants to send Lu Qiaoling back.
Lu Qiaoge, ah Lu Qiaoge, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous.
If I'm not at peace, you can't expect to have a good life.
Here, there were about a hundred people gathered together, talking in a mess.
Secretary Liu said hurriedly: "Everyone stop arguing, let's start registering now."
Lu Qiaoge was surrounded by the crowd. She took out a pen and glanced at Shao Le: "Do you want to write it down or do I?"
Shao Le: "Just register, I'll take care of the rest."
He saw that Lu Qiaoge's handwriting was very beautiful.
I heard that she practiced it herself.
Her handwriting is one of the best in the street office.
When Lu Qiaoge began to record who had lost what, she saw some people in the crowd with vacant eyes. She reminded them earnestly: "We must seek truth from facts and not lie. With joint investigation, the thief will be caught soon. What exactly you lost will be clear after investigation. Don't cause trouble for yourself."
After hearing this, a few people who wanted to take advantage of the situation and make false reports gave up their ideas.
Suddenly, Lu Qiaoge heard a fluttering sound above his head, and more than twenty pigeons flew up in fright from a house's yard.
[People from the Military Representative Office are marching towards this side.] 】
[It is Representative Qin who leads the team?] 】
[Isn’t it just chickens and ducks that were lost? Could it be that valuables were also lost? 】
[Do you see that human? The one holding the notebook. 】
What's wrong with her? Did she steal the chicken? 】
Lu Qiaoge glanced at the flock of pigeons still circling in the sky, then calmly withdrew his gaze.
Qin Hengzhi actually came.
[That tabby cat belongs to her family. Let's fly higher. We don't know what it has eaten yet that it could jump up and catch us. 】
