Having grown up under the education and care of the Ye and Chu families, she would never do anything to oppress others with her power.
Of course, this respect does not include those scoundrels who come looking for trouble.
To deal with them, you have to be even more ruthless than them to completely crush them under your feet!
After Jiang Tiancai quietly closed the door and left, Ye Nian'an got up and walked to the window.
He peeked through a corner of the curtain with great interest, wondering what kind of trouble Zhao Zhaodi was up to.
At the entrance to the reception room, Zhao Zhaodi paced back and forth with her hands behind her back, her wrinkles crinkling into knots, clearly indicating her great anxiety.
Zhao Jiadi and Gu Dadong stood to the side, their faces also looking very unpleasant.
After thinking about it for several days, they finally decided to go to the police station to report the case.
In fact, Zhao Zhaodi did not want to report the case.
At this critical juncture, with Zhao Shikai's case still pending, how could she dare to cause any unforeseen complications?
She was even more afraid that her children would find out that she had secretly gone to Ye Nian'an to plead for her, which would inevitably lead to another chaotic scene.
Alas...
That diary, I hid it so well!
During the subsequent search, it was discovered that they had vanished without a trace!
It's very likely that it was stolen!
That damned bastard! What were you doing stealing an old man's diary?!
The crucial thing is that the contents inside must not be seen by anyone else!
Otherwise, he would lose all face and his lifelong reputation would be ruined!
Zhao Jiadi knew that Zhao Zhaodi had a habit of keeping a diary, but he never thought that she would record all these sordid things.
When he learned the contents of the diary, he felt a buzzing in his head, as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and his hands and feet went cold.
Is this something that can be written on paper? Aren't you afraid someone will find it?
But seeing Zhao Zhaodi pacing anxiously with red eyes, Zhao Jiadi softened and couldn't bear to be harsh with her.
With no other options, the three of them went to the police station with trepidation in their hearts.
Whether or not other things can be found is not important, I only want to find that deadly diary!
Jiang Tiancai sat on a wooden chair in the reception room and was stunned when he heard Zhao Jiadi say that his house had been emptied.
"Empty house?"
His brow furrowed, and he tapped his knuckles on the table: "How exactly did they empty the place? Did they lose gold and silver jewelry or money?"
If only these things were lost, the case would be tricky, but that would make sense.
Using the word "搬空" (bān kōng, meaning to empty out) changes the meaning considerably.
"I... Captain Jiang, to tell you the truth, I still can't believe it... Everything in the old lady's room, and everything in the storeroom, was completely emptied by thieves, not a single thing was left!"
Zhao Jiadi's face was contorted in a grimace, and his voice trembled as he said, "The bed, the cabinets, the chairs, the table... everything is empty!"
"..."
Jiang Tiancai was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Having worked in the police force for so many years, he's seen countless cases of petty theft and theft.
This is the first time I've ever heard of someone buying the whole bed and cabinets at once... Oh, no, this is the second time I've heard of it!
It took him a while to come to his senses. He took a deep breath and asked, "When was your house emptied out?"
Zhao Zhaodi sobbed as she spoke, "It was... three days ago."
Three days ago?
Jiang Tiancai suddenly stood up, his chair sliding back half a foot: "Wasn't it the day Comrade Ye Nian'an went to your house?"
"On that day, after you left, the old lady wanted to go back to her room to rest. I helped her over and saw that the room was empty."
"At first we thought we were seeing things. How could things have turned out like this? That day, only I went out to buy some snacks and... looked for Comrade Ye Nian'an. The old lady stayed in the house the whole time and didn't hear anyone."
Gu Dadong chimed in, "Yes, when the old lady isn't using the car or on missions, I live next door and haven't heard any commotion. With so many boxes, it would definitely take six or seven strong men to move them quickly."
"But I can't hear a sound at all... That's strange, this is impossible, unless..."
"Unless what?"
Jiang Tiancai's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he slammed his hand on the table: "This is a socialist society now! We must destroy the Four Olds and establish new customs! We are not allowed to engage in feudal superstition!"
When such a huge accusation was leveled at him, Gu Dadong was so frightened that he almost slipped off his chair with a "plop," his face turning as white as a sheet, and he waved his hands repeatedly.
"I...I didn't say anything! Captain Jiang, I didn't say there was anything suspicious!"
Zhao Jiadi quickly tried to smooth things over, forcing a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Captain Jiang, please calm down. He's just a boorish man who doesn't know how to speak properly."
“But it’s true that our house was completely emptied. I asked the neighbors on both sides, and they all said they didn’t hear any noise… What kind of situation is this…”
Jiang Tiancai stared at them for a long time, and seeing that the three of them didn't seem to be lying, his brows furrowed even more.
"But why didn't you report the burglary to the police station on the first day? Why did you have to wait three days?"
He had sensed something was wrong earlier.
If an ordinary family is robbed, why would they wait this long to report it?
There's definitely something fishy going on here.
Zhao Jiadi and Zhao Zhaodi's faces turned pale instantly, as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over their heads.
We can't exactly say they're guilty, can we?
When Jiang Tiancai came to pick up Ye Nian'an that day, they were setting up a trap, trying to secretly plead for Zhao Shikai. How could they dare let the police know about this?
She was even more afraid that the secrets in her diary would be exposed, which is why she hesitated to report the case.
If these words were spoken aloud, wouldn't it be tantamount to admitting guilt without being asked?
Seeing that they were stammering, Jiang Tiancai took a step forward, put his hands behind his back, and straightened his military green trousers.
"You've come at the right time. What exactly was the purpose of summoning Comrade Ye Nian'an that day?"
He narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them: "Could it be that because Zhao Shikai was arrested, you're trying to use your connections to lobby for the criminals?"
"No, no, no! Absolutely not!"
Zhao Zhaodi, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, hurriedly explained, "We just felt bad that Shikai had caused Comrade Ye so much trouble, and wanted to make up for it!"
She had already prepared this explanation; she could not admit that she wanted to bribe Ye Nian'an under any circumstances.
At this critical juncture, isn't saying such things like courting disaster?
Furthermore, Ye Nian'an accepted the gifts the first time, and although she didn't accept them the second time, she didn't reveal their purpose either, so she probably wouldn't say anything.
"You even gave compensation?"
Jiang Tiancai raised an eyebrow, clearly somewhat surprised.
Seeing his reaction, Zhao Zhaodi's heart skipped a beat, and she was stunned: "What? Comrade Ye Nian'an didn't tell you?"
Ye Nian'an, who was in the office, couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this.
Is Zhao Zhaodi senile? Who would willingly reveal something like this to others?
She didn't mention it at the time because she was too lazy to cause trouble.
