Chapter 101 Very cooperative
“Boom boom boom!”
"Open the door, or we'll break in!"
After a while, the door opened from the inside.
"What can I do for you?"
It was Yu Wan who opened the door, and she looked confused.
"Police." The person who spoke showed his ID and the search warrant. "Someone reported that prohibited items were hidden here. We need to search."
The contraband items they were investigating happened to be related to a recent major case, so once someone reported it, they responded very quickly.
With all the documents in place, Yu Wan certainly couldn't stop them, but she still had to explain, "I don't know who reported it, but I don't have any contraband here. My house has been empty for a long time, and I just came back today."
"Are you the owner of this house? Please show me your ID."
Yu Wan provided her ID card.
The policeman who was talking stayed to drink tea, while the others went to search everywhere. No matter whether it was there or not, they had to search to find out.
When I entered the living room, I found two men and two women in the living room.
"They are all my friends. They came here with me." Yu Wan said without waiting to be asked, and was very cooperative.
The police also asked for ID cards from other people.
The others who went to search came back one by one.
"Captain, I didn't find it."
"Captain, we haven't found anything here either."
"Neither do we."
The captain frowned and glanced at Yu Wan.
Yu Wan poured a cup of tea and pushed in the direction of the captain, "Sit down and have a cup of tea."
The captain didn't say anything, but asked seriously, "Who else hasn't come back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came over and said, "Captain, we didn't find anything special upstairs, but..."
"If you have something to say, just say it now. Why are you hemming and hawing?!"
The captain finally received the report, but after checking, he found nothing. Of course, he was not in a good mood.
But the man said, "This villa seems to have a basement, but we haven't searched the basement."
Yu Wan's hand holding the teacup tightened for a moment, but soon returned to normal. She looked up and said, "I do have a basement here."
The captain said, "Please open it and let us search it."
Yu Wan didn't move. "The basement is just for some sundries. There's no need to search it, right?"
The captain just said, "Please cooperate with the investigation."
At the same time, another person came over, "Captain, we found some footprints around the basement, they are new."
The captain looked at Yu Wan and said, "Please."
Yu Wan didn't move for a long while before he stood up and walked towards the basement.
A group of police officers followed behind.
When I arrived at the entrance to the basement, I saw some footprints, as if they came from the garden, and there was mud under their feet.
"Open the door." The captain reminded again.
Yu Wan lowered her eyes and opened the door to the basement.
The police picked up their guns and went in. After a search, they found that there was no one in the basement, so they took back the guns and began to check around.
Yu Wan stood behind and watched, seeing them knocking here and hitting there, very professionally.
Sure enough, they soon discovered a hole under the basement. When the captain heard the sound, he went over and knocked on it. After confirming that it was empty underneath, he immediately had someone pry it open.
"Wait!" Yu Wan stopped them in time, "You can't dig here."
The captain narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why not?"
Yu Wan bit her lip, her expression tense, "My family's important belongings are buried underneath, you can't dig."
The captain was unmoved, "This is our duty. No matter what is buried down there, we have to check it out."
Yu Wan stepped forward to stop him, "You can't pry it open..."
The captain had already given the signal, and immediately two people stopped Yu Wan to prevent her from interfering.
At the same time, several other policemen quickly pried open the floor.
"Captain, there's a big box!"
Yu Wan widened her eyes and subconsciously held her breath.
The captain noticed Yu Wan's expression and became more convinced that there was something shameful inside. He took two or three steps forward and said sternly, "Open it!"
"No!" Yu Wan yelled.
The next moment, the lock of the box had been removed by a shovel.
With a clang, the box was opened.
The captain and others came forward and took a look, and were stunned.
There was a box quietly placed in the box, which was obviously an urn, and next to the urn were some fresh chrysanthemums.
“Grandma——” A figure rushed forward, knelt in front of the pit, and shouted heartbreakingly.
If it’s not Yu Wan, then who else could it be?
Garden, chrysanthemums, footprints...
The captain already understood something before he could figure out what to say.
Yu Wan has already started to cry, "Grandma, I am an unfilial granddaughter. I should have let you rest in peace in the countryside and taken you to a place that you shouldn't have moved to. In the end, I let you get disturbed by others. I am an unfilial granddaughter."
The captain's expression instantly became awkward, "Miss Yu, are these your grandmother's ashes?"
Yu Wan's eyes were filled with tears. "Why, are you going to pry the urn open before you're satisfied? Fine, then go ahead. We've already come this far, so there's nothing to worry about in the last step. You'll save me from being accused of not cooperating with you."
The captain was embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, we were just investigating and disturbed your family. Please help to fix it up."
Yu Wan said in an emotionless voice, "I can do it myself. Please leave."
The captain said with great guilt, "I'm really sorry, we didn't mean it. Do you want us to do something to make up for it?"
Yu Wan: "If you can return this place to a pure land, that would be the greatest compensation."
The captain stopped talking and immediately asked everyone to leave. The basement soon returned to silence.
Yu Wan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and slowly stood up. The sad expression on her face had long faded away.
[Ding Dong!] 】
The WeChat ringtone rang, Yu Wan took out her phone and saw that it was indeed Xiaoyao.
[Xiaoyao: You acted well. It would be a pity if you didn’t become an actor.] 】
Yu Wan, "Thank you for the compliment. Without your prompt reminder, I would have lost hundreds of millions of dollars."
Yes, almost from the moment they entered the door, Xiaoyao sent her an urgent message, asking her to move the antiques as soon as possible, saying that the police would come to the door.
How could Yu Wan dare to hesitate? She did as she was told immediately. She quickly thought of a plan. She asked the other four people to take the things away from the back door, and the rest of the people helped her create some illusions, such as picking chrysanthemums and footprints. Otherwise, if they were more cautious, no footprints would be left.
The urn was filled with soil, luckily the police didn't open it to confirm.
"Who on earth reported us?"
[Xiaoyao: He is the person behind the scenes.] 】
Yu Wan, "What?"
[Xiaoyao: He is the mastermind behind the murder of Third Brother!] 】
Yu Wan was stunned for a moment before she realized that Xiaoyao was talking about the future. "You said before that Third Brother died in a case. What case was it?"
[Xiaoyao: This house originally belonged to the third brother. He accidentally saved the principal's child and blocked a knife from him. The school gave him this house, but he didn't know there was a treasure in the basement, so he didn't take precautions or prepare. When a criminal broke in in the middle of the night, he...]
