"It's you again! The troublemaker daughter-in-law that the second brother found? What does our family's affairs have to do with you? You just barged in for no reason, and we..."
Old man Xie rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit someone.
Then he saw the public security comrades following Ji Qingzhou, and Xie Yanbei following closely behind him.
Old man Xie immediately stopped talking.
Xie Tianrui naturally understood what was going on.
When he saw the group of police officers following him, he wanted to escape through the back door.
But before he could get out of the house, he was blocked at the door.
Sun Yuehong's eyes were red. "Why did you break into our house in broad daylight? Even if the police are investigating a case, they can't be so unreasonable, right? We are all ordinary citizens. We haven't done anything wrong. You came here in such a big way. You have to give me an explanation for everything you said today."
Ji Qingzhou curled the corners of his lips. He had known for a long time that this family had no good intentions!
She finished writing the letter of complaint yesterday and rested for a while with Ji Qingwan in the health center in the middle of the night. As soon as the sun rose that day, she hurriedly found Xie Yanbei and called the police to come over.
"Whether he has committed any crime or not, we'll find out if you come with us to the police station. Take him away."
Public security officer Feng Zhengyi waved his hand and a group of people surrounded them.
Where had Mrs. Xie ever seen such a scene?
She looked like she was about to faint from fright.
"Comrade, everyone in my family is law-abiding. Have you heard any rumors? Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. We are a good family with a clean record."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a commotion outside. It seemed like someone had been arrested.
When Shen Huaizhi came in with a group of people, Xie Tianrui saw the Zheng family members who were trying to escape being suppressed by the People's Liberation Army, and instantly understood what had happened.
His face was pale and he was about to explain something.
The people behind Xie Yanbei carried the box and placed the whole box of gold bars in front of them.
Isn’t it the precious gold bar that he checks every morning?
"This was found in your home. You are suspected of embezzling state property, illegally appropriating cultural relics, and knowingly failing to report enemy spies. Come with us!"
Xie Tianrui moved his lips.
They didn't have conclusive evidence, and the items had been lost long ago anyway.
Now that they move in and claim it's his, of course he won't acknowledge it.
"You say it's mine? I said it was yours, but you brought this box of stuff over here and you're blaming me for it, Yanbei. Uncle hasn't offended you, has he? Why are you so eager to throw this dirty water on me?"
If someone didn't know, after hearing this, they would probably think that Xie Yanbei was heartless.
Ji Qingzhou had known that he would deny it, so she opened the box and took out the account book she had found in the room that night.
"Is this yours? This account book is placed together with these gold bars. Every account is recorded in it clearly. The physical evidence is here. Do you still want to deny your debt?"
Xie Tianrui's heart skipped a beat, and he snatched the account book from Ji Qingzhou's hand without saying a word.
"You're talking nonsense. I've never written down in this account book how many gold bars I have at home."
Xie Tianrui was stubborn and insisted that the handwriting was in his own words.
Ji Qingzhou originally wanted to trick him into saying something.
There was indeed no record of gold bars, but his actions had betrayed him.
"The evidence is irrefutable. You stole cultural relics and embezzled state property. Come with us."
Feng Zhengyi showed no mercy and put cold handcuffs on Xie Tianrui and Sun Yuehong.
Sun Yuehong struggled: "Comrade Public Security, I know nothing. I was really wronged."
Old Mrs. Xie immediately sat on the ground, holding Feng Zhengyi's trouser leg tightly with one hand.
"You can't take my son away. What crime did he commit? We don't know what happened to this thing. You took my son and daughter-in-law away. We are the only two old guys left at home. Even if we die, no one will know."
Old Mrs. Xie was crying and didn't care about her current embarrassment.
She was old, with gray hair, and looked pitiful.
Old man Xie also agreed. He squatted on the ground, blocking the door and refused to allow the police to leave no matter what.
"The old woman is right. My grandson hasn't returned from work yet. If anything happens to us, can you bear the responsibility? If you dare to take my son away today, I will hit my head and die here. Then you will all be murderers."
Old man Xie always uses moral blackmail, and no one in this village dares to offend him.
If he disagrees with something, he will say he is not feeling well and try to blackmail others.
Over time, the reputation will be ruined.
As soon as he goes out, everyone avoids him.
Old man Xie didn't take it seriously, instead he felt it was a great honor for him.
Ji Qingzhou sneered and kindly reminded them.
"Don't worry, if nothing unexpected happens, you two should go with us. If you really feel unwell, there are doctors at the Public Security Bureau."
Old Mrs. Xie and Old Man Xie were both confused. They looked up and saw shiny handcuffs on their hands.
"Until the matter is fully investigated, your family will need to temporarily stay at the Public Security Bureau. Whether or not you will be detained depends on the circumstances at the time and your honesty."
The Xie family was dumbfounded, and the Zheng family waiting outside were speechless.
At such an old age, he still has to spend his time in the Public Security Bureau.
When the old couple thought about going to jail, their eyes went dark and they fainted.
Uncle Xie Peng and his family hid in the house in a panic, not daring to look at the hustle and bustle outside.
I was afraid that the fire would burn me accidentally.
His elder brother is really risking his life, he even dares to swallow gold!
Ji Qingzhou walked to the window.
Before she could speak, Xie Peng waved his hands repeatedly.
With a wry smile on his face, he expressed his feelings: "Ji Zhiqing, we really didn't know about this matter. If we knew, we would have stopped Big Brother a long time ago!"
"We are all decent, law-abiding citizens. We will never take advantage of the country or embezzle its property."
Guo Hui still hated Ji Qingzhou for pressing her into cow dung.
But today's situation is clearly not favorable for her to settle the score.
The smile on her face was uglier than crying, and she was just thankful that she was not caught up in this storm.
"Yes, Ji Zhiqing, your uncle is right. Although we don't get along very well in normal times, we will never do anything that harms the country. Big brother, how can you be so confused at the critical moment?"
Ji Qingzhou turned around. Xie Yanbei didn't say much. It seemed that the matter was over.
Xie Peng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't say anything nonsense just now, otherwise he would have been dragged into trouble by the two elders.
He no longer cares about his parents' life or death.
