"Xiao Ding?" Seeing Xiao Ding walk to the front of the altar, Cheng Yuchen also walked over and looked at the altar in front of him.
Nothing special, looks pretty ordinary.
Xiao Ding looked back at the old man and saw that he looked nervous. He became more and more certain that the problem was with the altar.
"Boss, that old guy has been staring at this altar. There must be something wrong with it, but I can't see what it is." Xiao Ding whispered to Cheng Yuchen in a low voice.
Cheng Yuchen walked around the altar, then touched his chin and ordered his men: "Smash it!"
"Comrade! Comrade! This is not allowed! This is not allowed! This is for worshipping our ancestors! You are really going too far! What did we do wrong to deserve such treatment? You didn't even give us a charge, and you handcuffed us and smashed things as soon as you entered the door. This is unreasonable!" The old man panicked when he saw Cheng Yuchen was so violent, and started crying and shouting.
Several of the sons also started shouting, and the place became noisy for a while.
There were old ladies and young wives next door who had not yet gone to work. When they heard the noise, they all came out to watch the fun.
Seeing that the old man and his family of eight were handcuffed there, each wearing a silver bracelet on his hand, everyone started talking.
Their family was originally a bit eccentric and they didn't interact much with others on weekdays, so their relationship with their neighbors was not very good. Now that something happened to their family, everyone speculated that they had done something against the law and that the big hat had come to their door.
No one wants to deal with the police these days. After all, who wants to go to jail? It's not a very glorious thing.
The people at the door were pointing and talking, and the people in the house were making a lot of noise, but Cheng Yuchen didn't care and just asked someone to smash the altar.
After smashing it, I found the problem. The board at the back seemed to be movable.
Cheng Yuchen fumbled on the wall for a while and found the switch. The board rose up, revealing an entrance.
It was pitch black inside and no one could see clearly what was inside, but no one was afraid.
Cheng Yuchen found a flashlight and went downstairs directly.
The others were afraid of some danger below, so they followed the two of them down.
After passing through the narrow and dark stairs, the space below suddenly became bright, and it was a basement of more than 20 square meters.
Cheng Yuchen searched the wall for a while and found the light switch. He turned on the light and everything in the basement became clear.
There was a table with a telegraph on it and a chair next to it. In addition, there was a cabinet against the wall. The cabinet was not small and contained many books, some of which were even banned books that were not allowed to be kept privately.
In addition to the books, there are several mahogany boxes stacked there, probably about seven or eight of them, and I don’t know what they are. There are also several large vases next to the boxes, with some scrolls of calligraphy and paintings in the vases.
There's quite a lot of stuff in this basement.
Cheng Yuchen ordered people to carry all the things out, and he went to look for the surprise that Qin Zijin mentioned.
He felt that it was definitely not these calligraphy and paintings, books and telegraph machines, but probably something else, otherwise Qin Zijin would not have shown such a meaningful look at that time.
But after a quick look, I didn't find anything. I guess the real good stuff is hidden among other things.
The boxes were carried out one by one, and the vases and paintings underneath were also taken to the yard outside.
The people watching outside were immediately shocked. After all, life was not easy for everyone these days. They were stunned when they saw so many things that looked very valuable.
At this time, the box was also opened. In addition to the golden bars, there were also a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, which were dazzling to look at.
For a moment, the sound of swallowing saliva was heard.
Cheng Yuchen didn't expect that these things would be in the box, but he reacted quickly and immediately asked someone to pack up everything. He then called the bureau to ask someone to arrange a car to come over.
They didn't drive when they came this time for fear of alerting the enemy. They didn't expect that there were not only eight enemy spies hiding here, but also so many good things.
The bookshelf was quickly brought up, and books were thrown on the ground at random.
The old man's eyes flickered, but his gaze remained on the books.
Xiao Ding saw it again.
He ran to Cheng Yuchen's side and reminded him quietly, "Boss, he has been staring at those books. When we brought up those boxes just now, he didn't react at all. I guess there are important things in those books."
Cheng Yuchen's eyes also fell on the books, nodded, and ordered: "Put everything away, don't leave anything behind, take everything back."
"Everyone, please stop gathering here and disperse. No one is allowed to approach this place. Anyone who approaches will be treated as an enemy spy."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone understood immediately.
It turns out that they are the pests among the people!
No wonder he hid so many good things. I don't know how many wicked and shameless things he did.
Everyone looked at that family with disgust, as if they were maggots in a sewer.
Some people called the bureau to arrange for a car to come, while others spontaneously stood guard at the door to prevent anyone from sneaking in and taking advantage of the situation.
These things must be handed in and then carefully counted and checked later.
It can't be missing.
The bureau acted quickly. After all, they knew something big had happened here, and they arrested a group of people, so they deserved some credit.
The eight people were quickly taken into the car.
Someone in the crowd looked on coldly, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
But this time no one noticed anything.
Everything in the yard was loaded onto the truck and taken away.
A few people were left here to clean up the mess, because there were still a lot of things in the house and they had to be searched carefully without missing any clues.
When Cheng Yuchen returned to the bureau, the eight people had been separated into different interrogation rooms and interrogated individually.
Cheng Yuchen took Xiao Ding and others directly to the evidence room, and they carefully counted all the things they brought back.
Especially those books, he is now very curious about what secrets are inside. The old man seems very nervous, so it must be something extraordinary.
Cheng Yuchen did not delay anything and went to read books with a few trusted subordinates.
Each book was carefully read.
Xiao Ding watched it seriously and didn't want to miss it at all.
After looking at it for a while, he suddenly jumped up excitedly: "Holy shit! Boss, look at this!"
A list, a very detailed list.
He only saw the first page, which had a person's name on top and various things the person had done below, with details even down to the specific time written very clearly.
He flipped through it casually. The book was very thick and probably recorded hundreds of such people!
