Chapter 385 Theft from the Liu Family

"Haha, the Yan family is really stingy if they don't even care about how full the steamed buns are."

"Just be content. If Banggeng hadn't stolen the meat today, we could only eat carrots and cabbage."

"With the Yan family's stingy energy, the new daughter-in-law will have to fight with them in a few days."

"But then again, the new daughter-in-law is so good-looking, how could she fall in love with Yan Jiecheng?"

After the Yan family's banquet ended, Yan Bugui and the third aunt stood at the door to see off the guests with smiles on their faces as they listened to the discussion.

The residents stood up from their chairs in twos and threes, rubbed their shriveled stomachs, and prepared to go home and find something to fill their stomachs.

Li Weidong and Yu Li also stood up, preparing to go home and make lunch again.

The atmosphere at the scene was quiet and awkward.

At this moment, an exclamation came from the backyard.

"Oh my God, there's been a burglar in my house!"

This sound was like a heavy hammer, hitting the residents' hearts hard.

A thief was just arrested in the Siheyuan today. Who is so brave and dares to steal something?

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Li Weidong: "Brother Wei Dong, the sound seems to be coming from bangs. Is there a thief in his house?"

Li Weidong looked around and didn't see Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian, and he suddenly understood.

He chuckled and said: "It shouldn't be the case, there are so many people in the courtyard today, and the police officers and others have also been here, how could there be an intruder!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sound like a howling ghost or wolf came from the backyard.

"Master 1, Master 2, Master 3, something bad has happened. My family's treasures have been stolen. Someone come quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Li, Qin Huairu, Yan Bugui, and the other residents rushed to the backyard.

Li Weidong put his hands behind his back and followed slowly.

Entering the backyard, the door of Liu Haizhong's house was open, and the second aunt collapsed at the door.

When Liu Haizhong saw the crowd arriving, he ran out of the house, his face full of anxiety.

"First Master, Second Master, you guys are here, hurry up, my house has been robbed."

"Liu Haizhong, don't worry, what happened?" Qin Huairu said.

"Today I have been having dinner at Lao Yan's house. When I got home, I found that the door of the house was open and the house was ransacked."

As he spoke, Liu Haizhong made way for everyone to enter the house, and Li Weidong also followed.

After just one glance, he called him a good guy.

The stools, chairs, and tables in the room were all pushed to the ground. In the corner, the old and worn-out bars were completely torn apart, lying on the ground like a lame wild dog.

The back room was not spared from the disaster. The clothes in the cabinet were dug out and thrown randomly on the floor. Shoes and socks were scattered on the floor. There was a strong smell of feet in the air.

Everyone covered their noses and retreated into the main room. Some people laughed and said: "With bangs, you should pay attention to your personal hygiene."

"Hey, the old lady is not in good health these days and hasn't done any laundry."

When the second aunt was mentioned, everyone remembered that the second aunt was still lying at the door, and quickly turned around and helped the second aunt up.

"Auntie, sit down." Qin Huairu lifted a chair from the ground.

The second aunt staggered on the chair, hammering her knees with her hands and howling loudly.

"You damn little thief, you actually stole my family's heirloom. It's a treasure passed down from generation to generation of our Liu family, and it will be passed on to my grandson in the future."

The second aunt wiped away her tears and grabbed Qin Huairu's hand: "First Master, you have to make the decision for my family. Catch the little thief and help our Liu family find the treasure."

"Don't worry, we will try our best."

When saying this, Qin Huairu felt extremely relaxed.

In the past, she would have started to worry about whether Banggeng had stolen the Liu family's treasures. However, Banggeng was currently receiving education at a work-study school.

Thinking of this, Qin Huairu's gratitude to Li Weidong increased even more.

But, what exactly is the Liu family’s treasure?

Seeing Qin Huairu's confused face, Liu Haizhong hesitated: "Our Liu family was a farming and studying family in the previous dynasty. Our ancestors once served as academic administrators in the county, so we have the opportunity to collect paintings by famous artists. Most of the paintings are

It was lost, and only one of Tang Bohu’s original paintings has been preserved.”

Tang Bohu's authentic work, Li Weidong, couldn't help but take a high look at Liu Haizhong.

In later generations, Tang Bohu's paintings were sold for more than 3 billion yuan.

It's just that in this era, paintings like this are considered shameful things, so it's no wonder Liu Haizhong remains silent.

Although the thing thrown in Liu Haizhong is somewhat illegal, it is still lost after all, and Qin Huairu, as the master of the courtyard, cannot ignore it.

Qin Huairu walked up to Li Weidong and asked in a low voice: "Comrade Weidong, what do you think?"

"How do you see it? With your eyes, of course." Li Weidong chuckled and waved his hands: "What the Liu family lost this time was not a piece of meat, but a precious painting. If you go to a trust store to buy the same painting,

It will cost at least more than a thousand yuan. For such a big case, we still have to hand it over to the comrades at the police station."

Speaking, Li Weidong blinked.

Although Qin Huairu didn't know Li Weidong's intention, she still nodded: "You are right, this matter is no longer within the steward's control."

She looked at Yan Jiecheng who was standing at the door: "Jiecheng, please go to the police station."

"okay."

Yan Jiecheng responded and ran away quickly.

Li Weidong saw several residents who were about to help Liu Haizhong put things back to their original places, and quickly stopped them: "No, there may be clues in these things, no one should touch them, everyone should stand outside the door."

The clues were related to whether the case could be solved. When Liu Haizhong heard this, he immediately became anxious and drove the residents out of the house. Even the second aunt was helped outside the door and placed on the cement platform of the flower pond.

It was the first time for the residents to encounter such a big case, and they all became very enthusiastic and began to guess where the thief came from.

Most people thought that the thief must be someone from outside the courtyard. The thief took advantage of the Yan family's wedding banquet and sneaked in without everyone noticing.

After all, everyone in the courtyard knows everything about them. If you want to say that there are those who are greedy for cheap, there must be some. But there is only one person who has the guts to do this, and that is Bangge.

However, Bangge's alibi is now very strong.

Hearing the discussion, Qin Huairu looked at Li Weidong gratefully again. She felt that just because Li Weidong sent Banggeng to the work-study school, it was worth her efforts twice.

Hey, when Li Weidong was playing the game of "I am among you" recently, he was really too lazy and wanted Qin Huairu to be self-reliant every time.

The small police arrived quickly.

As soon as he entered the Crescent Gate and saw Qin Huairu, he began to mutter: "Comrade Qin Huairu, what happened to your courtyard? Two thefts occurred in just one day."

"From the Yuyu family, no one wants to see this happen. You'd better find the thief as soon as possible, otherwise, the second aunt will faint."

At this time, when the second aunt saw the small policemen arriving, she immediately burst into tears, her nose ran down, and her tears couldn't stop falling. She would twitch twice from time to time and roll her eyes. It looked so miserable and miserable.

.

However, these are the specialties of old ladies in this era. The small police officers are usually responsible for mediating family disputes. They have seen this kind of tricks many times, so they are not surprised.

"Where is the crime scene?"

"Inside the house, I have followed Director Li's advice and protected the scene."

Qin Huairu led the police officers into the house.

There were no evidence collection tools in this era, and the police station, as a grassroots unit, was not equipped with cameras. The police officer took out a small notebook from his pocket and recorded the clues he saw in it. Then, he asked Liu Haizhong and the residents of the courtyard

them.

After the questioning was over, Liu Haizhong couldn't wait to ask: "Yu Yu's family, have you found the thief?"

"It's not that easy."

The police officer shook his head: "There are no valuable clues at the scene."

At this point, the police officer suddenly stopped, looked at Liu Haizhong and asked, "Have you ever asked Director Li for advice?"

"Li Weidong? He is not a police officer, how can he still solve the case?" Liu Haizhong's face darkened.

It's not that he doesn't know Li Weidong's abilities, after all, just this morning, the piece of meat lost by the Yan family was found by Li Weidong.

But since Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian entered the poverty alleviation workshop, Liu Haizhong hated Li Weidong and was unwilling to deal with Li Weidong from then on.

The second aunt knew Liu Haizhong's thoughts. She also complained about Li Weidong in her heart, but now she was so anxious that she couldn't care so much.

The second aunt touched Liu Haizhong with her elbow: "Old man, just ask Li Weidong to come and check. This is related to our family's heirloom, and this is not the time to vent your anger."

Liu Haizhong was silent for a moment, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he nodded.

He walked up to Li Weidong with his head drooped: "Li Weidong, what do you think about the burglary in our house?

"What do you think?" Li Weidong looked Liu Haizhong up and down. Although this guy was pleading for mercy, his expression was extremely proud.
