The police acted quickly, and Xu Peng's grandsons were frightened, so they told the truth after a few questions.
However, Xu Peng believed that Xu Xue was the mastermind, and he was at most an accomplice.
These days, committing robbery or theft against the law is very likely to result in being executed.
Although Xu Peng was the one who owed money, the person who orchestrated everything was Xu Xue!
It has nothing to do with him.
The police officer gave Xu Peng a complicated look.
There are so many witnesses in Heping Lane. Regardless of whether Xu Peng is an accomplice or not, it was the three of them who entered the Xu family's courtyard, and it's all their side of the story. We still need to catch Xu Xue and interrogate her.
Several police officers went to the address provided by Xu Peng.
The house was empty and in complete chaos.
Xu Xue is missing, and Sun Xiumin is not there either.
The room was a complete mess, as if they had hurriedly packed their things and left.
Xu Xue and her daughter ran away!
Under repeated interrogation, Xu Peng confessed to the involvement of several other people besides the burly man. They were all petty thugs who had not participated in today's theft, but had come here beforehand to scout out the location and keep watch.
Xu Peng's main point was that he couldn't let himself get arrested.
More than anything else, Xu Peng was relieved that he had been arrested and could temporarily escape the casino's debt collection. However, when he heard that he was likely to be executed, Xu Peng's face turned deathly pale.
And then he wailed again.
After Xu Songyuan finished giving his statement, the police said that if there were any further developments or news about Xu Xue and her daughter, they might ask Xu Songyuan to come to the police station again.
Xu Songyuan nodded in agreement.
It's already past 10 p.m.!
They never expected that Xu Xue and Sun Xiumin would run away and abandon Xu Peng like that.
Xu Guiying said, "If they don't run away, they'll be taken away by the casino people to pay off their debts."
Since Xu Peng has already been arrested, there's no point in keeping him here.
He simply opened a shop honestly and suffered an unexpected disaster.
Xu Songyuan solemnly thanked everyone, especially the third brother and Zhuo Huai. Zhuo Huai scoffed, "If they steal from your house today, they might come to my house tomorrow. Thieves who dare to be so arrogant are just asking for death!"
Now that there's a crackdown, thieves don't dare to commit crimes openly anymore, but several incidents have still happened in Heping Lane!
There's a criminal police captain living in their alley!
They were afraid they wouldn't die fast enough!
Xu Guiying: Let's go back first.
Xu Songyuan slapped his forehead. "Right, what about Lao Wu? How's his hand?"
Grandpa Song said it was a minor issue and told him not to worry, urging everyone to go home first.
After Grandma Song took Song Jianmin to get bandaged up, she returned to Heping Lane and waited outside Xu Songyuan's house. Old Sun and the others were also there. Everyone in the neighborhood was a kind-hearted person.
Song Yun was there too. Mo Hong was still at the office, not yet off duty.
If something happens to anyone's family, everyone rushes to help.
A group of people were sitting outside Xu Songyuan's house. When they saw them return, they all asked how things had gone.
Xu Songyuan was deeply moved and said that the matter was mostly resolved, and he would invite everyone to his home for dinner the following evening when he had time.
Song Jianmin hurriedly asked, "Uncle, Xu Xue and her mother just ran away?"
Xu Songyuan hummed in agreement, then said thoughtfully, "They might not have run away together."
Sun Xiumin couldn't possibly ignore Xu Peng; she would only leave as a last resort. Judging from Xu Xue's attitude when she came to Xu Songyuan the day before yesterday, she was reluctant to borrow money and must have been forced to come. Today, Xu Peng's arrest has given Xu Xue the perfect opportunity to leave.
Grandpa Song: "Songyuan, when you go and buy two big dogs, tie them up in the yard."
Not only can it guard the house, but it can also keep an eye on what's happening in the neighborhood.
Xu Songyuan nodded, "Okay, this will work."
Since no one had eaten dinner yet, Xu Songyuan cooked a few dishes and reheated the three fish that Lao San and Lao Wu had made.
The third and fifth brothers did a great job tonight and were praised by Grandpa Song.
If they had tails, you'd definitely see both brothers with their tails sticking up in the air.
Xu Guiying chuckled, "Song Jianmin, just a reminder, you have the college entrance exam in July."
Song Jianmin: "Mom, it's nothing, it's just a minor injury, it won't affect my writing."
It will be fine in a few days.
It's not a big problem.
The next day, Xu Songyuan went to write a notice that the shop was closed for the day early in the morning, and then went home to prepare dinner. There were about three tables of people, all of whom were neighbors from Heping Lane.
Song Jianmin's hand injury healed quickly; he went to have the stitches removed after five or six days. The injury to his upper arm did not break any bones, so it did not affect his work or writing.
Mo Hong helped Xu Songyuan adopt a retired police dog from the police dog base, and Song Anmin also picked up a small mongrel from their factory.
With two dogs at home, I'm not afraid to guard the house.
Since the third and fifth brothers had helped this time, Xu Songyuan didn't mention sending the two brothers back to the factory again.
The two brothers were relieved and started buying groceries and cooking every day after work, occasionally bringing some over to Xu Guiying and the others.
Xu Guiying and her husband had never accepted it.
One thing at a time.
The third and fifth brothers did a good job, but that cannot at all make up for the mistakes they made in the past.
Separation means separation!
Don't even think about coming back.
Before we knew it, it was already late May.
Song Jianmin and Qian Yu'an are both preparing for the college entrance examination and are busy studying every day. Xu Guiying will occasionally take her second son to visit Qian Yu'an and bring him some food.
The third brother is also starting to act like an older brother. He cooks five days a week, and Song Jianmin cooks the other two days.
Peace Lane returned to a brief period of calm.
It happened on May 26th.
Liu Aimei finally agreed to the divorce.
It took two or three months after Song Guomin discovered it before the matter was finally settled.
Liu Aimei was at fault. She didn't want the two children, nor did she take the IOU from the Liu family. She also didn't care about the little money in Song Guomin's savings account. Apart from her own clothes and jewelry, she didn't want anything else.
