Chapter 179 Has he gone mad?
This time, Wang Guoxue was smart. He needed to find a witness, so he found the older sister who had taken Liu Nian and the others to the neighborhood committee.
The older woman, Li Guihua, also worked on the street office and was an honest person. Upon hearing Wang Daguo's purpose for coming, she frowned, sized him up, and said, "Do you think I'm idle?"
"Do you think I have time to play house with you?" Li Guihua shoved Wang Daguo in disgust, holding a stick as if to hit him. "Go somewhere cool and stay there!"
Is he going mad? Or has drinking clouded his judgment? He's probably lost his mind.
Wang Daguo stayed at Li Guihua's doorstep, refusing to leave. He clung to the doorframe, insisting, "Sister, I'm telling you, something's not right in their family, really!"
"That house doesn't look like a place where people live! What decent family doesn't have pots and pans? They're always appearing and disappearing like ghosts."
These words startled Li Guihua. The higher-ups were warning everyone to be vigilant; Jian Die might be right next to them. If Liu Nian and his wife were indeed behaving strangely…
She naturally didn't believe in ghosts or gods, but she couldn't let her guard down against the enemy!
“Come on, I’ll go with you to take a look.” Li Guihua put down what she was holding and stepped out of the door with a serious expression.
Wang Daguo chimed in, “You’ll see when you see it. It’s very strange and abnormal.”
Li Guihua started thinking about yesterday's events. Wang Daguo wasn't blind, and the house didn't have a back door. If Liu Nian and the others really went out, how could Wang Daguo not see them?
Seeing Wang Daguo talking nervously, Li Guihua also became suspicious.
While you can't completely trust what Wang Daguo says, it's always good to be cautious.
Wang Daguo led Li Guihua to his own courtyard, pointed to the tightly closed door and said, "You'll see when she opens the door. I really didn't lie to you."
"That house is exactly the same as when I rented it to them! It's not an exaggeration at all, it's as if they never lived in this house."
He said that yesterday, and repeated it many times, but nobody believed him.
Li Guihua nodded and walked to Liu Nian's door with a cold expression.
She had already made up her mind. If it really was as Wang Daguo said, she would immediately report to the organization and thoroughly investigate Liu Nian and his wife.
Perhaps she could even earn some merit? Li Guihua took a deep breath, feeling both nervous and excited.
She glanced back at Wang Daguo, who waved to her, signaling her to knock on the door quickly.
He held his hand up to the door and knocked twice.
A soft voice came from inside the door, "Who is it?"
“I am Li Guihua,” Li Guihua said. “People from the street came to me to register my permanent residence.”
Then she heard footsteps coming from inside the house, slowly approaching, and then the door creaked open.
Immediately, Wang Daguo stood on tiptoe to look inside.
Wang Daguo and Li Guihua were both stunned. They were told that the house was full of dust and had no signs of habitation.
Seeing the surprise and disappointment that flashed across their faces, Liu Nian chuckled and said, "Big sister, come in and sit down."
She turned slightly to the side, wanting Li Guihua to come inside and take a good look.
Li Guihua's expression froze. She forced a smile and said, "Ah, okay."
She stepped into the house and looked around—
The room was clean and tidy, free of dust and messy cobwebs, and the bedding was neatly arranged on the bed. The wardrobe, which had been covered in dust, had been wiped clean and was shiny. A small table stood against the corner of the wall, with some unfinished cornbread on it.
