"Back then, those scoundrels burned, killed, and looted here, taking away so many good things, which were all transported out by rail and then by sea."
Later, seeing that they were about to fail, a batch of large yellow croakers could not be transported out and had to be buried on the spot. At the same time, a batch of military explosives was also buried.
We now suspect that these are the items that were taken from Old He's house!
Xiao Yichen frowned: His wife was right, there really was something good buried there.
"Don't be angry. I was ordered not to tell you this."
As you know, there's still no conclusion regarding your wife's situation, so you need to avoid suspicion. Only after observation has it been confirmed that nothing is related to Comrade Su Ruobai can you speak on this matter.”
"Really? Wasn't it because of a phone call from the old company commander?" Xiao Yichen looked at his older brother with a half-smile.
Director Li was embarrassed for a moment, then became confident again: "Of course not, we have to do things according to the rules."
"But brother, are you sure you did the right thing with your sister-in-law? Have you thought about the consequences if she finds out?"
Xiao Yichen's gaze was resolute: "I am a soldier, and the uniform I wear tells me that I must be loyal to my country!"
Director Li: "Alright, I hope your wife will never know about this!"
Xiao Yichen appeared confident, but inwardly he was nodding frantically: He definitely couldn't let his wife know, or he'd be in big trouble!
His expression, however, remained calm and experienced: "Are there any clues about those things?"
Director Li frowned deeply: "No, the weather has been dry these past few days, and it hasn't rained, so there isn't a single trace on the road."
Even if there were any, they would have been trampled away by people and animals.
Most importantly, the person who was disfigured should be a suspect.
Moreover, we reasonably suspect that the people who came to pay their respects were spies infiltrated among them.
However, after extensive investigations, no suspicious individuals were found. These people had all lived here for decades, or were born here!
Xiao Yichen: "Is it possible that he's been lying low for decades?"
"That's a possibility, we've analyzed it, but if that's the case, it'll be even more troublesome. If they can stay hidden for decades, they'll be like demons!"
It's hard to find! Also, this person went to the educated youth settlement. According to interviews, the only people he had contact with at that time were Qian Huan and Chen Shuo.
We've already ruled out Chen Shuo after interviewing him. Only Qian Huan, who frequently takes leave to come to the commune to buy things, is a suspect! We've already assigned people to keep an eye on him!
Xiao Yichen touched his nose and said awkwardly, "Qian Huan came to the commune to buy things, mainly for my wife."
Ever since my wife got pregnant, she's been vomiting a lot and can't eat anything.
Qian Huan's ancestors were all chefs, and your sister-in-law can eat what he makes, so I asked him to help me buy groceries and cook.
Therefore, the one you mentioned can be ruled out!
Director Li paused for a moment, then spoke: "Are you serious? It's just a pregnancy, why are you making such a big fuss? So what if she throws up? What woman doesn't?"
Xiao Yichen was displeased. "What do you mean it's just having a baby? Do you know how many women have died because of pregnancy and childbirth?"
It's just vomiting. What woman doesn't vomit? Do you know how painful it is? Some people can even vomit bile and can't eat anything at all.
Did you know that some women, because they were pregnant and vomited so badly, couldn't bear to abort their babies and ended up starving to death?
"Which woman doesn't vomit? You think this is my world? If you don't know, go look around. How many women have lost their lives because of a child!"
Director Li, who had been sprayed in the face, wondered if this was the world he knew. Was being pregnant really that dangerous?
Seeing Xiao Yichen's serious face, she immediately admitted her mistake: "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong. Women have it the hardest, women are the greatest, okay!"
Xiao Yichen's expression softened: "That's more like it. If you say Qian Huan has other problems or is a suspect, then I don't care."
If you say he's suspicious because he bought too much stuff, then I need to explain myself clearly. I can't let people think I've harmed him!
"Okay, okay, I know, I know. If it's not Qian Huan, and it's not Chen Shuo, then who could it be?"
After saying this, Director Li frowned, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then exhaled sharply: "Looks like we need to rearrange things!"
Xiao Yichen also pondered seriously: "I heard my dad say that Zhang Jun has practiced martial arts. Although he pretends to be an ordinary person and doesn't show it in his daily life, my third grandfather could tell. Do you think it's possible that it's him?"
Director Li rubbed his chin, thinking for a while before saying, "This person should be fine. He is the child of a nanny in the household of a leader in Beijing. In principle, they have all undergone strict vetting, so there shouldn't be any problems."
"Why would leaders from Beijing come here? Is one of the top five companies related to a leader's family?"
"Hehe, you're only finding out now? Looks like you haven't been sensitive enough lately."
I heard that kid got into some trouble, and someone's family was going to report him. So his family asked someone to bring him here, supposedly to lay low for a while, and then they'll take him back in a few days!
"So neither of them are the ones? Or are they the same educated youth from before? Or is this person deliberately creating a diversion to distract us so he can take advantage of the situation?"
Director Li nodded in agreement: "It's not impossible, but since you've said it yourself, we should still pay more attention to Zhang Jun."
Fifth Strong did not have the opportunity to commit the crime. His daily life has always been under public scrutiny. Apart from his poor character, nothing suspicious has been found!
