Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1138 Clues
"Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" Lin's mother asked in disbelief. Those people were so bold as to cook the books.

"I definitely didn't see it wrong. I didn't dare to take a closer look that day because I didn't know when Old Feng would be back, but I can guarantee that the account books in the warehouse were definitely not made by the master."

In fact, Lin's father didn't say who made the fake account book, but he already had a guess in his mind.

The person who can imitate the master's handwriting so closely, even not forgetting to imitate many small habits and details, must be someone close to the master.

The fountain pen used by the master was the last birthday gift his wife left him before she left.

After his master's wife passed away, the master never used any other pen except that one.

The pen was once knocked off the table because the master's youngest son was naughty. That was the first time that Lin's father saw the master so angry that he even beat his youngest son.

Although the back of the pen was sent for repair, the repairman was reluctant to replace the nib, so even though the repairman tried his best, he only repaired seven or eight layers.

Since then, a crack has appeared on the pen.

The damage to the nib was particularly serious, although the pen repairman tried his best to repair the nib so that it could still be used for writing.

But it's hard to mend a broken mirror. After all, it still can't be compared with a normal pen tip. The notes written will be wider than those of other pens, and sometimes they will scratch the notebook.

The writing pen was obviously obtained from the master.

But there are only two or three people in the world who can get a fountain pen from the master.

Combined with other information, Lin's father has roughly guessed who it is.

But he just couldn't understand why the other party would do this when he obviously didn't need money?
The master treated him well, and he is throwing dirty water on the master!

The three of them looked at each other for a long time before Lin's mother spoke up: "What should we do now?"

In fact, what she wanted to ask more was, can they afford to get involved in this matter?
Father Lin's expression changed again and again, and finally he seemed to have made up his mind. He said seriously, "You guys wait at home first. I'll go find Lao Feng."

"Old Feng?" Lin's mother asked subconsciously. The matter was too big and she didn't trust anyone now.

After making the decision, Father Lin's face looked much better. He comforted his wife and children, "Don't worry, Lao Feng is trustworthy."

"Then go quickly." Seeing that her husband knew what he was doing, Lin's mother slowly felt relieved.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a knock on the door. Old Feng, who was drinking alone in the room, paused and then asked loudly, "Who is it?"

"Lao Feng, it's me."

Recognizing Lin's father's voice, Lao Feng put down the wine glass in his hand and ran to open the door.

The two have known each other for many years, and there is no taboo in their conversation: "Why are you here so late at night? What's the matter?"

Looking around, Father Lin had a headache for a moment because of the neighbors who were looking over at him when he knocked on the door.

If there is anything wrong with living in a tube-shaped building, this is it.

There are basically no secrets between neighbors. If you say something today, everyone in the factory may know it tomorrow.

Father Lin thought for a moment and said with a smile: "My little Lin is getting old, so I thought I'd come over to ask if you have anything good to say?"

Father Lin apologized to his son in his heart, but he really couldn't think of a reason, so he could only push his son out.

However, thinking about it, my son is indeed not young anymore, so it’s time to consider this matter.

Upon hearing this, Old Feng's face lit up with joy.

"You've indeed reached the age, so what does Xiaolin want?" When the other eavesdroppers heard about this, some of them turned away their ears in disinterest, while others rolled their eyes and seemed to be making up their minds.

"Come on, let's go to my house. I asked your sister-in-law to prepare a good meal. Let's go and eat together."

"Then I won't be polite." Old Feng closed the door and followed Lin's father.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, many people looked away in disappointment.

When they arrived at the Lin family's house, after Old Feng entered, Lin's father quickly locked the door.

Seeing this, Lao Feng's eyes flashed and his face became a little serious.

After Father Lin locked the door, he asked, "What happened?"

Father Lin whispered about the account book and the house in the staff compound.

After hearing this, Old Feng's face changed drastically and his mind started working frantically.

After accepting what Father Lin said, he only asked one question: "Are you sure that the account book is not the one that Master originally had."

"No!" Father Lin answered very affirmatively.

Old Feng breathed a sigh of relief, as long as this matter had nothing to do with the master.

When he entered the factory, he also learned accounting skills from his master for a period of time, but unfortunately his brain was not flexible and he had no talent for bookkeeping.

With no other options, he could only run to look after the warehouse.

Old Feng looked calm: "When I first met the family compound, I remember there were three people in charge. Can we still find them now?"

"I'm not sure. Master Lao drowned while trying to save someone. I have heard something about his family. As for the other two responsible persons..."

Father Lin shook his head. He had not heard any news from the other party since the family compound was built.

Lao Feng said decisively: "We can't investigate this matter from the factory. We have to find another way. I will investigate the other two responsible persons. You can find a way to find Master Lao's family members to see if Master Lao mentioned this matter at home before he left.

Also, I will try my best to create an opportunity for you to go to the warehouse again."

Thinking of this, Lao Feng touched his chin and continued, "If it really doesn't work, I'll find a chance to pretend to accidentally lock you in the warehouse. You take the opportunity to carefully check the accounts of that year. Just in case, it's best to make a copy and keep it as evidence."

"What about us?" Seeing that she was left behind, Lin's mother quickly interrupted.

"Sister-in-law, you can cover for us. If it's convenient, please help me find out from whom the materials were purchased when the family compound was built?"

"Leave this to me. I'll go talk to my old sisters. They should remember something." Mother Lin nodded.

As for Secretary Lin, the three people present unanimously ignored his existence.

"Dad! What about me? What about me?" Secretary Lin became anxious when he saw that he was being ignored.

"Just stay with Director Li and don't cause any trouble for us."

"Dad! What do you mean by that?" Secretary Lin said with some dissatisfaction: "Maybe there are too many things to do."

Everyone ignored him and after discussing the plan, Lao Feng had a meal at Lin's house.

After finishing his meal, he deliberately lingered at the Lin family for a while.

Before leaving, he pretended to be drunk and asked Lin's father to help him back to avoid arousing the suspicion of the neighbors.
