Siheyuan, I became a commercial tycoon in the culinary world

Chapter 171 Yi Zhonghai Testifies Against He Yuzhu

"I went to the Pigeon Market and bought a chicken and a fish for you to replenish your body..." He Yuzhu gently touched Zhang Wanting's hair, his eyes full of love.

His voice was low and warm, as if it could bring endless sense of security to people.

"Really? Brother Zhuzi, you are the best to me..." Zhang Wanting closed her eyes happily.

In the dark night, her face was filled with a sweet smile, as if there was a light flickering.

During this period, He Yuzhu always went to the pigeon market to buy chickens and meat to nourish her body. She had gotten used to it.

Every time Zhang Wanting saw He Yuzhu busy working for her, her heart was filled with emotion.

She has become accustomed to He Yuzhu's care and love, and is deeply dependent on him.

In this turbulent era, He Yuzhu's care was like a solid fortress, shielding her from the wind and rain from the outside world.

Zhang Wanting snuggled up to He Yuzhu, feeling his warmth, her heart full of anticipation for the future.

……

The next morning, when the sunlight shone into the house through the window, it brought a hint of warmth.

Yidaima and Yi Zhonghai woke up as usual. After a simple breakfast, they were about to take fifty yuan to the Jia family to discuss the adoption of Xiaodang as planned.

Their hearts were full of anticipation, as if they could see the days in the future when Xiaodang would accompany them.

However, when the two of them opened the cabinet with confidence, the scene before them made them turn pale instantly.

Yi Zhonghai widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

The cash and various tickets that were originally neatly arranged in the cabinet are now all gone.

The empty cabinet was like a huge black hole, swallowing up all their hopes.

"How is this possible?" Yi Zhonghai screamed in horror, his voice full of shock and despair.

His body was shaking slightly, as if he had suffered a great blow. He couldn't believe his eyes. How could the money and tickets he had saved with great effort disappear without a trace overnight?

Yi Zhonghai's mind was in a mess, with all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind quickly.

He wondered who was so bold as to steal from his house? Could it be someone in the courtyard? But everyone lived in peace and harmony on weekdays, so who would do such a thing? Could it be a thief from outside who sneaked into the courtyard?

But the gate of the courtyard was always locked at night, so how could the thief get in so easily? He also thought about how he had spent a lot of money and energy on Jia Dongxu's case, and now even his retirement savings had been stolen. What would he do in the future?

The more he thought about it, the more panicked and angry he became.

Then, Yi Zhonghai had to put aside the matter of taking Xiaodang back.

He knew that the most urgent task now was to recover the lost money and tickets.

He reported the case to the police station without hesitation, hoping that the police could help him investigate the theft last night.

He waited anxiously for the police to arrive, feeling uneasy. He kept praying in his heart, hoping that the police could solve the case quickly and minimize his losses.

In the afternoon, the police officers came to his home.

They looked serious and carefully asked about Yi Zhonghai's income and expenditure, as well as how much money and bills he had lost.

Yi Zhonghai tried to calm himself down and told the police officers what had happened in detail.

His voice was full of anxiety and expectation. He hoped that the police officers could solve the case as soon as possible and recover his losses.

The police officers carefully recorded every detail, their eyes revealing firmness and determination, as if they were promising Yi Zhonghai that they would do their best to solve the case.

However, after several days of investigation inside and outside the hospital, the police officers found no information at all.

Under such circumstances, the police officers' expressions became extremely solemn, as if shrouded in a layer of haze.

Their brows revealed deep worry, and they seemed to be racking their brains over this difficult case.

Yi Zhonghai's heart completely fell to the bottom at this moment, like a heavy stone sinking into an endless abyss. He was full of anxiety and didn't know what to do.

Without money, how can I fulfill my promise to Qin Huairu?

"Comrade Yi, your case is really a bit puzzling.

We have searched thoroughly inside and outside the courtyard, but we still can't find any trace of the suspect.

Normally, after a thief steals your money and bills, he will usually use your bills to buy things in the market.

But now, no one is found to be using large amounts of receipts to make purchases.”

A policeman said with a frown, his tone full of confusion.

"Comrade police officers, I think one person is the most suspicious. Can you help me check him out?" Yi Zhonghai said anxiously, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"Who..." the police officers asked in unison.

"He Yuzhu in our yard spends his days drinking and eating. I have always suspected that his money comes from illegal sources..." Yi Zhonghai said firmly.

"You are talking about Comrade He, the first person to turn a restaurant into a public-private partnership..." A policeman raised his eyebrows slightly, seeming very surprised by Yi Zhonghai's statement.

"Yes..." Yi Zhonghai nodded vigorously.

"Comrade, have you misunderstood something..." A policeman shook his head slightly, with a hint of doubt in his tone.

“Comrade He even donated his restaurant to the country, so how could he steal things?

He spends his days drinking and eating, but the dividends are enough for him, not to mention the job in the steel mill.

Have you also worked as a liaison officer at the police station?"

Another policeman added, his face full of trust in He Yuzhu.

Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to give up, he insisted: "Comrade police, you can't rule him out as a suspect just because he did some good things before.

He spends money so lavishly every day that it really makes people suspicious."

The police officers looked at each other, and one of them said, "Comrade Yi, we investigate cases based on evidence, and we cannot investigate a person based on your suspicion alone.

However, since you have raised this suspicion, we will also pay appropriate attention to He Yuzhu's situation, but for now we will continue to expand the scope of the investigation and look for other possible clues."

Yi Zhonghai nodded helplessly, but he was still full of doubts about He Yuzhu in his heart.

At the same time, He Yuzhu was completely unaware of all this.

He still took good care of Ann Hui and prepared various delicious foods for her.

That day, he went to the Pigeon Market again and bought some fresh fruits.

"Wanting, try these fruits, they are so sweet." He Yuzhu handed the fruits to Zhang Wanting with a smile.

Zhang Wanting took the fruit, her heart full of emotion: "Brother Zhuzi, you are so kind to me. With you around, I am not afraid of anything."

He Yuzhu looked at her gently and said, "Don't worry, I will always take care of you."

In the courtyard, other residents also began to talk.
