“Comrade Zhang Cuihua, Public Security needs evidence to solve a case, so shut up!”
Hong Shengcai roared loudly.
Two Security Guards moved at the sound, standing behind Jia Zhangshi.
Jia Zhangshi pursed her lips, sat back in her chair, and became obedient.
Having experienced the iron fist of the Security Section once, Jia Zhangshi was still a little scared and dared not act recklessly to challenge Hong Shengcai's authority.
“Comrade Zhang Cuihua, after your savings were stolen, our colleagues went to your Courtyard to investigate.”
“At that time, we questioned you, your daughter-in-law, and several Grandpas in the Courtyard, and it was unanimously determined that no one had entered Jia.”
“So, I am very confused, how did you determine that Yan Fugui was the thief?”
Deng Shoucheng asked seriously.
Jia Zhangshi had an angry expression and remained silent.
She couldn't possibly say that she made it up randomly.
“Without evidence, it’s best to say less if it’s all guesswork. We also want to help you find the suspect.”
“But we cannot arbitrarily incriminate others.”
“Even if we follow your wishes and forcefully determine that Yan Fugui stole your money, as far as I know, the Yan Family's financial situation is not good, and he simply cannot repay you.”
Deng Shoucheng explained patiently.
“Then it must have been Chen Jianye who stole it. He has money, his father's pension, and Sha Zhu's compensation, which adds up to over a thousand yuan.”
Jia Zhangshi quickly said.
Deng Shoucheng pressed his eyebrows.
Alright.
So, his words just now were for nothing.
This old woman just wanted her money back, and whether it was her lost money or not, it didn't matter.
Public Security could not support her actions.
“Send Zhang Cuihua back.”
Deng Shoucheng took a sip of water and said decisively.
Instead of keeping a troublemaker here, it's better to send her back and make the scene quieter.
“Can I stay here and listen?”
Jia Zhangshi didn't want to leave.
Deng Shoucheng didn't speak.
“Take her away.”
“Comrade Zhang Cuihua, the confidentiality agreement is still in effect. If you dare to reveal the contents of the agreement to others, I will not let you off!”
Hong Shengcai ordered.
Two Security Guards each extended a hand and placed it on Jia Zhangshi's shoulders.
“Alright, alright, I'm going, I'm going.”
“Leader Hong, is the special treatment the Security Section gave our family still valid?”
Jia Zhangshi got up, speaking quickly.
“We will follow the agreement. Jia will work normally, with no special treatment.”
“Even the subsidies given to your family before will have to be taken back.”
Hong Shengcai said coldly and firmly.
“Those subsidies, along with my savings and my son's pension, were all stolen.”
“How can I repay them? You are trying to force our family of five to die.”
Jia Zhangshi complained bitterly.
“Take her away, take her away, quickly take her away.”
Hong Shengcai waved his hand, annoyed.
He found Jia Zhangshi irritating to look at.
As for making Jia repay the money, he was just saying it. Did he not know that Jia Zhangshi's money was stolen?
If it weren't for his position, Hong Shengcai would have cursed Jia Zhangshi a few times.
Two Security Guards each held one of Jia Zhangshi's hands and dragged her out.
“Leader, if you can't help me get back the stolen money, I definitely can't repay those subsidies.”
“If you want to force our family to die, just shoot me instead.”
Jia Zhangshi was still yelling.
Hong Shengcai sighed and forced a smile: “Team Leader Deng, you must be laughing at us. A big forest has all kinds of birds.”
“Managing a factory is not easy. Like us in Public Security, we often feel helpless when facing troublesome masses.”
“If we manage too much, people will curse us behind our backs. There really isn't a good way.”
Deng Shoucheng said with a look of mutual understanding.
“Yes, it’s not easy for anyone.”
Hong Shengcai nodded.
Jia Zhangshi's matter was over just like that.
Everyone's gaze fell on Chen Jianye.
“Comrade Chen Jianye, can you accompany me to the Courtyard where you live?”
Deng Shoucheng suddenly spoke.
“Ah? I have to go to work.”
Chen Jianye was a bit surprised, not understanding what the other party was thinking.
He thought it was simple: going to the Courtyard meant he couldn't go back to the Workshop to work.
As for the other party wanting to search his home or anything, Chen Jianye didn't care at all.
Anyway, his important belongings were all in his portable space.
Even if they turned the house upside down, they would at most find a few hairs.
“Work won't be delayed by this short while, Comrade Chen Jianye. I will send someone to tell the Workshop. You just need to cooperate with Team Leader Deng.”
Hong Shengcai proactively took on the task of coordinating with the Workshop.
“Alright then, Team Leader Deng, whatever you say, I'll do.”
Chen Jianye readily agreed.
“Let's go then.”
Deng Shoucheng stood up.
In fact, after reading the reports written by the two Public Security and fully communicating with Hong Shengcai, Deng Shoucheng already had his own hypothesis regarding this case.
He called Jia Zhangshi and Chen Jianye over to verify his hypothesis.
And the result was similar to his hypothesis.
Jia Zhangshi clearly looked like a wicked mother-in-law, while Chen Jianye was handsome and tall.
As a Carpentry, his strength was naturally unquestionable.
Deng Shoucheng had seen too many cases of young men seducing widows.
They were all old routines.
“Section Chief Hong, thank you for the hospitality. I will drive there myself.”
Sitting in the sidecar, Deng Shoucheng politely declined Hong Shengcai's offer to accompany him.
“Team Leader Deng, our Section Chief Yan requires us to accompany you throughout and assist you with the case.”
“In case anything happens over there, it's good to have more people to help.”
Hong Shengcai's attitude was very firm.
Without explanation, he took a Security Guard and got into the Security Section's sidecar.
“Alright then.”
Deng Shoucheng smiled.
He also understood Hong Shengcai's thoughts.
If the truth was indeed found out, the Security Section wanted to ensure they got firsthand information and also control the intensity of the matter within a certain range.
Public Security had to maintain social order and stability.
The Leader of the Security Section also had to maintain factory order and stability.
Everyone carried responsibility on their shoulders.
Three Public Security sat in one sidecar, and Hong Shengcai, with one Security Guard, sat in another sidecar with Chen Jianye.
Less than ten minutes later, two sidecars stopped at the entrance of the Siheyuan (Courtyard).
A group of six entered the Courtyard.
The Public Security and Security Guards wearing different uniforms were particularly conspicuous.
“Isn't that Jianye? Did he commit a crime?”
“It's over, he wouldn't have hit someone at the factory, would he? I see people from the Security Section and Public Security.”
“It definitely wasn't hitting someone. If he hit someone at the factory, the Security Section would have handled it. He wouldn't have killed someone, would he?”
Many old sisters-in-law who were gathering and chatting in the front Courtyard discussed animatedly.
“Hey, Leader, what are you here for?”
First Aunt mustered her courage to ask.
The Grandpas of the Courtyard had all gone to work, so someone had to receive the Leader.
“We're just here to check on a small matter. Comrade Chen Jianye is cooperating with our investigation; he hasn't committed any crime.”
“Everyone, don't spread rumors and needlessly tarnish someone's reputation.”
Deng Shoucheng explained to the many old sisters-in-law with a smile on his face.
“Comrade Police, what are you investigating in our Courtyard?”
First Aunt asked again.
“That's not convenient to say. It's still in a confidential stage.”
“In short, everyone, don't panic. Just go about your business.”
Deng Shoucheng had rich experience dealing with the masses.
In a few words, he appeased the situation.
