"I am a five-guarantee household and have made contributions to the government. How can you treat me like this?" the deaf old lady suddenly struggled madly.

This elderly, thin body burst out with infinite strength, and the two street office staff members could hardly control her.

"Be honest and take them back to the street office to notify the police station," Director Li glared at the two staff members and scolded the deaf old lady.

Upon seeing this, the staff of the street office tied the hands of the deaf old lady behind her back. As for the middle-aged man who had a deal with her, he collapsed to the ground and dared not say a word after the people from the street office showed up, and was carried to the street office like this.

"Zhuzi, thank you very much for this time. Go home first. Leave the rest to me and I will definitely give you an explanation," Director Li patted He Yuzhui.

"As long as we can catch him, thank you very much, Director. I'll go back first," He Yuzhu said and left the alley and returned to the courtyard.

At this time, Li Xiuzhi and He Yushui, who had just got off work, also hurried back to the courtyard on their bicycles, wanting to find out what had happened and whether the deaf old lady had been caught.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw He Yuzhu sitting on the sofa drinking tea happily, and I knew that the matter must have been settled.

"Brother, the deaf old lady was really arrested. She resold so many food coupons. My sister-in-law told me about it this afternoon, but I didn't believe it," He Yushui asked hurriedly.

"Don't worry, Yushui. The deaf old lady not only resold food coupons, she also traded gold privately and concealed her son. She is definitely finished this time," He Yuzhu told her the news.

"Boss, she won't really be shot, will she?" Upon hearing that the deaf old lady was really arrested, Li Xiuzhi suddenly felt soft-hearted again.

"She was punished because she violated national policy. Maybe she is an enemy spy. We are doing this to eliminate harm for the people. Don't take it to heart."

"Oh," Li Xiuzhi said nothing more after hearing that.

"I didn't expect that the deaf old lady was such a person and had a son. Before, I was so hungry that I wanted to borrow food from her, but she said she had none. Now she has so many food coupons, it's really abominable," He Yushui said gritting her teeth.

"Okay, don't be angry. Now she is getting her retribution. I guess she exchanged so many food coupons for her son. She just wants to live a good life and doesn't care about the lives of others," Li Xiuzhi gathered herself together and comforted He Yushui.

Just as He Yuzhu and his friends were preparing dinner, they heard a commotion in the yard. He Yuzhu quickly opened the door and went out.

I saw several public security officers coming to the courtyard, and He Yuzhu hurriedly asked Yan Fugui who was following him, "Uncle, what's going on?"

Yan Fugui walked towards the backyard and said to He Yuzhu, "They said the deaf old lady committed a crime and they are going to search for her."

While the two of them were talking, other people in the courtyard gathered around to find out what was going on.

Following Yan Fugui's words, the news of the arrest of the deaf old lady spread, and the courtyard was immediately in an uproar. No one expected that the five-guarantee households supported by the state would secretly resell food coupons.

Could it be that she had too much food to eat? No wonder she always wanted to eat meat. It turned out that she was tired of the food, and the suspected enemy spy was concealed.

When they heard that they were going to copy the deaf old lady's house, everyone wanted to roll up their sleeves and join in copying.

"Captain Wang, the deaf old lady's room is in front. Usually no one dares to disturb her. I just heard the news and I asked my son to seal her door."

"No one is allowed to enter or exit," Liu Haizhong, who rushed out after hearing the news, stood in front to show the way to the police station staff.

"Thank you very much. I will praise you to the leaders of your street office later," the police officer named Captain Wang said to Liu Haizhong, making him feel like his bones had become two pounds lighter.

"Why don't you two get out of the way? Let the police go in and search thoroughly," Liu Haizhong hurriedly scolded his two sons when he saw them standing at the door.

Captain Wang stood at the door, looking at the deaf old lady's room and commanded, "Four people go in and search carefully, even the corners and cracks of the floor. The rest of you stand guard at the door and don't allow anyone to approach."

"Yes," the other public security soldiers heard Captain Wang's order and immediately took action.

The public security soldiers who entered the room immediately began to search everywhere, as if they would not give up until they found something.

At this time, Captain Wang outside also announced to the people in the yard, "The suspect, Long Xiaoni, is a deaf old lady. She had an illegal transaction with someone at the entrance of the alley this afternoon."

"We have detained the speculators. Everyone must not make such a mistake. We are also collecting evidence. Anyone with clues can report it."

"I have so many food coupons, enough for me to eat for a long time."

"How could an old lady like her, who is a five-guarantee household, get so many food coupons?"

"Doesn't she usually eat good food? How can she still have money?"

The residents of the courtyard heard Director Wang’s propaganda and talked about it.

After a while, a public security soldier came up to Captain Wang and said, "Captain, we found something wrong with the wall. Come in and take a look."

Captain Wang saw this and quickly followed the police officer to the inner room, only to see that everything near the west wall had been cleaned out.

"Captain, this position is blocked by the teacher's portrait. There is a small box filled with gold bars behind it. Also, this room seems to be different in size from what it looks like from the outside. The wall is quite thick, so there seems to be a problem," the public security soldier who called him in introduced him.

"Break down this place and see what's inside," Captain Wang was not vague. After hearing his subordinates' introduction, he ordered to break down the wall.

Soon the room was filled with dust, and suddenly it seemed as if a discovery had been made: "Captain, two boxes were found inside."

"Take it out and open it, be careful," Captain Wang said anxiously.

The soldier heard the order and took out the two good boxes, checked them and opened them. A burst of golden light made everyone lose their minds.

There was actually a box of gold neatly stacked inside, and another box next to it was full of pearls and agates, which stunned this group of public security soldiers who had never seen the world.

Captain Wang took a deep breath when he saw this. He didn't expect that an ordinary old lady would have so many things.

Obviously this is not something that ordinary people can have, and the old lady's identity is also full of doubts.

"Seal up everything and keep searching," Captain Wang's voice startled the public security soldiers, who continued to search. After about half an hour without finding anything, they carried the boxes and came out of the house one after another.

"The two stewards of the courtyard, Long Xiaoni's room will be sealed from now on. No one is allowed to enter or approach."

"You two are responsible for supervision. We have to go back to the police station to report," Captain Wang called Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui over and instructed them.

"Don't worry, Captain Wang, we will keep a close eye on it and not miss any suspicious signs," Liu Haizhong quickly stepped forward and patted his chest to assure, and Yan Fugui nodded on the side.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you two gentlemen. Let's go." After Captain Wang had explained everything clearly, he and his police comrades took the seized items and left.
