Once everyone had left, the family from across the street quickly squeezed in.
Wang Xiumin really wanted to say so much, but when she saw the people, she didn't know what to say.
"What happened?" Wang Zhongshan had just heard that Xu Xiangyang had been arrested, and he almost tripped and fell when he went out.
Everyone stumbled and staggered their way here, and they were all very worried.
Getting arrested at this point is a very serious matter; there's basically no chance of being released. Even if you are released, you might be tortured beyond recognition.
Xu Xiangyang comforted him, "It's alright. That troublemaker from last time is back looking for a cure again. He's probably just upset. Don't worry, nothing's wrong. I'm innocent, so I have nothing to hide!"
He may not be a good person, but he never gives anyone any leverage to use against him.
Xu Pu is a problem, but he can't cause any major trouble.
What future can someone who is made a scapegoat have?
Hearing this, his family was still worried and wanted him to go back to live with them.
At least there's someone to look out for you. Even though we live across the hall, they still can't help you out if something happens.
Xu Xiangyang disagreed, saying, "As I said before, work is the most important thing. I've been handling work matters at home, or going to the office. What could possibly happen there? Even if something happens, Director Liao won't be watching."
He was deliberately lying in that last sentence to comfort his family.
They are your supervisor, not your parent. Why should they interfere with you?
Even if someone tries to take care of you, it has to be because you're worth the effort.
But now Xu Xiangyang is no longer Liao Shizhang's secretary. Even if they have any interaction in the future, it will only be for work purposes, and there is no need for him to help too much.
The family members thought it made sense; after all, they had worked with Chief Ceremony Chief for so long, and they couldn't just stand by and watch if something really happened.
"Okay, then be careful." Wang Xiumin felt a little more at ease, but then said resentfully, "That guy surnamed Xu is a real piece of work, why does he always cause trouble?"
After comforting his family, Xu Xiangyang went back to have a meal with them before returning to the courtyard.
As soon as he reached the door, he saw two people approaching from not far away.
One of them was someone he had seen during the day; he was the young man who spoke to him at the end.
"Captain Sun, this is him." He brought his men over and said, "This is Secretary Xu."
Xu Xiangyang looked at the man next to him. He was probably in his thirties and of average appearance, but his eyes were constantly scrutinizing him, so he seemed unusual.
Indeed, to rise to the position of captain of the disciplinary squad, one must be no ordinary person.
"Hello," Xu Xiangyang greeted him first.
Captain Sun smiled and nodded. "I am Sun Youxin, the captain of the Xicheng District Police Team."
After saying that, he reached out and shook hands with Xu Xiangyang.
Xu Xiangyang responded politely, saying that one shouldn't refuse someone who is being so polite.
Sun Youxin said, "Secretary Xu, we have investigated today's matter. It was an anonymous tip that Xu Pu saw, and then he brought people over to search the place."
“Logically, we should investigate if there is a problem, but he did not have a search warrant, which is a mistake. I have dismissed him from the disciplinary team and given him a stern warning that he can forget about finding a job in the West District in the future.”
He finished speaking while still smiling, and throughout the conversation, he expressed deep regret over Xu Pu's actions.
Upon seeing this, Xu Xiangyang realized that this person was just too bureaucratic.
But that's fine, at least it's been dealt with, and at least they took it seriously.
"That's really troublesome, Captain Sun. We can't have such a disruptive cancer in our team. It's good that it's been cleaned up now." He gave an official reply to Sun Youxin's nonsense.
Sun Youxin remained expressionless, but instead pulled an envelope from his pocket and said, "I can't give you the report because we still need to investigate. This is the money Xu Pu is paying you back. I heard you've damaged the house, so you must accept this."
He was just here to settle this matter, and Xu Pu wasn't familiar with him, so firing him would save him the trouble.
Since Xu Xiangyang is happy, I won't have any trouble.
That's perfect, isn't it?
Xu Xiangyang glanced at him and said, "No need for that. It just so happens that we need to replace some things at home. Let's leave this money to the disciplinary team. You have a lot of expenses, so consider it as an expense. It's my trouble with you."
He's not short of money, so he wouldn't even look at this amount.
However, Sun Youxin looked at him in surprise. He had heard that Xu Xiangyang had offered to pay compensation, which was why he had asked Xu Pu for the money.
Of course, this is to be expected, since nothing was found and there was no search warrant.
But should we give them money?
Sun Youxin handed him the envelope. "That won't do. If there's a chance, Secretary Xu can come and see us and give us some guidance on our work."
They wouldn't dare accept money; there are countless people watching them, both openly and secretly.
Xu Xiangyang smiled without saying a word, took the envelope, chatted for a couple of minutes, and watched the two leave.
He turned and went into the yard, then threw everything from the room into the garbage container inside the space.
How can he reuse these things?
However, we still brought out the exact same furniture as before, so that no one would suspect anything.
After tidying everything up, he closed the door, locked the windows and doors, drew the curtains, and then turned off the lights and entered the room.
Although he didn't know if anyone else could sneak in unnoticed like him, he figured it was better to be safe than sorry.
Arriving in front of the two large wooden crates, Xu Xiangyang looked them over twice.
Xu Pu said this belongs to his fourth uncle?
So the things inside can't be shown now, right?
Xu Xiangyang used tools to open the box. Inside were many foreign novels and some antiques.
These antiques don't look good, at least that's how it seems to him, a complete novice.
Taking it out now would only cause trouble, so he put it back.
Anyway, there's somewhere else to hide it, so I'll just put it in the space.
However, Xu Xiangyang was a little curious: who put this in his room?
Xupu?
He only had a 30% chance of believing that Xu Pu was responsible.
However, he had a feeling that this matter was inextricably linked to Cao Yajun.
I had visited his house before, and this happened when I got home in the afternoon.
But he has no evidence, so it seems he has to keep a close eye on Cao Yajun; this guy is a real problem.
Xu Xiangyang hadn't physically punished him, mainly because he was wary of Jiang Wu.
After all, this person was somewhat secretive, and he didn't fully understand Cao Yajun's situation.
He didn't even know how he got that wire.
Without thorough preparation, Xu Xiangyang did not intend to alert the enemy. If he failed, it would likely arouse their greater vigilance, making it even more difficult to carry out his mission again.
But he couldn't let him continue like this; he had to hurry up and investigate, and get some results by the end of the year.
Otherwise, if we wait another year, Cao Yajun's job may be transferred, and it will be more difficult to take action then.
