Under the guidance of Old Man Yu, Zhang Jianshe carefully inspected the Yu family's house.
Inside and outside the house, everything was as ordinary as it could be, except for the new wooden door that was kicked in by Yu Dongshun, which was a bit eye-catching.
There was a smell of smoke in the kitchen, the bed in the bedroom was tidy, and freshly washed clothes were drying in the yard. Everything showed that this was just an ordinary farmer's home.
Not to mention hiding outsiders, there is not even a decent corner to hide for a long time.
Zhang Jianshe even lifted the bed board and knocked on the wall himself, but still found nothing.
The absurd idea about "magic" popped up again, but he suppressed it again.
"Hmph, it seems that the boss's family is really in trouble." Old man Yu put his hands in his pockets, and a barely perceptible smugness flashed in his cloudy old eyes.
After searching for a while, nothing was found and Zhang Jianshe frowned even more.
He knew that the clue seemed to end here.
The car that fell into the river and the three people in the car seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.
"Pack up! Go back to the station and wait!"
With a lingering doubt and disappointment, Zhang Jianshe said no more, gave an order in a deep voice, and took his men away from Yu's house and went to the local police station, where they were ready to "wait" for Yu Nian to come back for questioning.
Seeing the police cars and the village cadres' cars leaving one after another, Old Man Yu and Yu Xiang, who had been huddled nearby with their eyes rolling around, looked at each other and their minds suddenly became active.
"Grandpa?" Yu Xiang lowered his voice and gestured towards the main rooms of Yu Bai's house with his eyes.
Old man Yu narrowed his cloudy eyes, uttered an almost inaudible "hmm", and then pretended to be calm and greeted the neighbors who were still watching the fun.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were many people in the yard and the police search had caused some chaos, Yu Xiang quietly crouched down and slipped back to the main hall of Yu Bai's house like a loach.
He looked around with a shifty look, and after making sure that no one was paying attention, he immediately started rummaging through Yu Bai's house.
He thought that since Yu Bai's family ran a workshop and bought cars, they must have a lot of money, as well as antiques that his father and grandfather had heard about.
However, after searching from under the bed to the top of the cabinet, from the box to the earthen jar, he didn't even see the shadow of a large-denomination banknote!
Not to mention gold, silver and antiques!
"Damn it, where's the money? Where did it go to hide it?" Yu Xiang was furious and cursed under his breath.
He refused to believe in evil and almost wanted to tear down the whole house.
Yu Xiang naturally couldn't find anything.
How could he know that Yu Bai had already put all the truly valuable things into her personal space before leaving home.
What remains at home are only some inconspicuous daily expenses and a small amount of reserve funds.
Unwilling to give up, Yu Xiang searched carefully again and finally found several bundles of cash in a cloth bag that Zhou Fengxia had sewn into the lining of her old cotton-padded jacket. After counting, he found that there were about 30,000 yuan.
Then, from the innermost layer of the bedside table, he found a few old, blackened silver rings and a silver hairpin, which looked worthless.
Although 30,000 yuan was far below his expectations, it was still a windfall for Yu Xiang.
That little bit of silver jewelry is like a mosquito leg, but it's still meat.
A hint of greed flashed in his eyes, and he put the money and jewelry into his bulging pockets without hesitation.
Humph, with so many people coming in and out today, it’s a mess, who knows who took it?
When the time comes, he will insist that some dishonest outsider took the things away while the chaos was going on. Yu Bai has no evidence, so what can she do to him?
Patting his pockets contentedly, Yu Xiang slipped out again with a smug look on his face, thinking he had done it without anyone noticing.
Little did he know that his small action had already been recorded by an inconspicuous miniature surveillance camera in the corner of the old house, and transmitted in real time to Yu Bai's mobile phone APP thousands of miles away.
