Siheyuan: After I moved in, the compound became a mess

"found it!"

Xu Damao shouted loudly and almost burst into tears.

He quickly took out all the money and food coupons from his cotton shoes. After taking a closer look, he realized that these were his belongings that he had hidden in the iron box.

"Comrade Public Security, this is the money and grain and oil coupons I lost."

"I don't remember the exact amount of the bill, but the money should be 195 yuan. I remember this very clearly."

The two public security comrades added the money in the two cotton shoes together and counted them. Not a penny was wrong, it was indeed 195.

He was able to tell the specific amount of the money, and it matched the amount of money hidden in the cotton shoes, proving that the money was the money stolen from Xu Damao's home.

"Now these money and bills are considered evidence. Keep them in our hands first. Then follow us to the police station to make a record and we will return them to you."

The middle-aged policeman took the money in his hand, nodded to Xu Damao, and comforted him to relax. Since the money had been found, there would be no more mistakes. Then he turned around and looked at Wang Dabao again.

Wang Dabao glanced at the cotton shoes on the ground, and the middle-aged policeman immediately understood.

Afterwards, the cotton shoes on the ground were compared with the shoe prints on the cloth, and the result was that both the sole patterns and the size were consistent.

In other words, the person who went to Xu Damao's house to commit theft and vandalism was Banggeng, who was sitting on the kang.

When the money was found, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu were both stunned.

They could already foresee Bang Geng's fate. After stealing such a large sum of money and being caught red-handed by the police, he would definitely be sent to a juvenile detention center.

What kind of people are incarcerated in the juvenile detention center? They are absolutely the dregs of society. Most of them are orphans who have no one to blame. My own son Banggeng is only ten years old and has to be locked up with these people. I can’t imagine the consequences.

"Comrade Public Security, do you think you have made a mistake? We don't know why this money appeared in our family!"

Qin Huairu immediately jumped off the kang, approached the middle-aged policeman, and said almost pleadingly, "Can you please investigate this matter again? My son Banggeng is only ten years old and would never do such a thing!"

Qin Huairu cried with tears in her eyes, stretching out her hands to grab the middle-aged policeman's arm, but was afraid of angering him. Fortunately, Sha Zhu didn't see her like this, otherwise he would have felt so sorry for his good sister Qin.

"Now that the evidence is irrefutable and the victim can clearly state the amount of money stolen, do you still want to deny it?"

The middle-aged police officer drooped his eyelids and turned to look at the frightened Bang Geng. "Being young is not an excuse to evade responsibility. Come with us to the police station and explain everything clearly."

"I didn't steal it."

Seeing the young police officer coming to arrest him, Bang Geng shouted and quickly stood on the edge of the kang, "It was Sha Zhu who asked me to go in and get it."

When Jia Zhang saw that the police were about to arrest her grandson, she immediately stepped forward to block the stick, fearing that her grandson would suffer even the slightest harm.

"You can't arrest him. Even if my grandson made a mistake, he is still a child. Now the money has been found, and Xu Damao didn't suffer any loss. It's better to let it go. At most, our family will compensate him for the damaged furniture."

Jia Zhang opened her arms and protected the stick behind her like a hen protecting her chicks.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong stood aside without saying a word. Things had developed to this point and it was no longer their place to intervene.

However, seeing that Jia Zhang was making trouble in front of the police, Liu Haizhong was still very eager to see her taught a lesson.

When Yi Zhonghai heard Shazhu's name from Banggeng, his face turned pale again.

Combining this with what Sha Zhu said before, Yi Zhonghai could also guess that this theft should have been committed by Bang Geng instigated by Sha Zhu. The reason was very simple. Sha Zhu suspected that the incident of the big red shorts last night was done by Xu Damao.

What happened today was entirely due to Sha Zhu’s revenge.

"You little bastard, you went to other people's homes to steal money and cause damage, and you say 'take it'?"

There was no longer any trace of the aggrieved look on Xu Damao's face that he had before he entered the house. Now that the money and tickets had been found, he felt at ease. The next thing he had to do was to get compensation and punish the culprits Bang Geng and Sha Zhu.

"Comrade Public Security, this kid still doesn't repent at this time, and the Shazhu he mentioned is a major suspect in the crime. I suggest that they be arrested and tortured severely."

Xu Damao was eager to try. As long as the police gave the order, Xu Damao would definitely rush onto the kang and hold down the stick.

Wang Dabao put his hand on Xu Damao's shoulder and said, "Damo, the police are more experienced than you in handling this kind of thing. You don't need to make decisions here. Now that the money has been found, you just need to wait for the result."

"Wang...Comrade Wang is right. The police have their own principles. As the victim of the theft, you don't need to worry about anything else."

The middle-aged policeman smiled at Wang Dabao and looked at Bang Geng who was standing on the kang again. "We have already controlled the Shazhu you mentioned. Now you should get off the kang and go to the police station with us. Tell us the details of the crime and what happened."

"At that time, it will be clear who is responsible."

If an adult had spoken to the police officers like this, they would have probably been subdued by force long ago.

However, facing this ten-year-old child, and in front of the deputy director Wang Dabao and the suspect's parents, the two police officers did not forcibly arrest the suspect. Instead, they tried to persuade the suspect with words to come to the station and cooperate with the investigation.

Obviously Banggeng is not an ordinary child.

"I've already said that this matter has nothing to do with me. Why are you arresting me?"

Banggeng didn't care that he was missing a shoe. He ran to the window in two steps, opened it and was ready to jump out.

"You bastard, you still want to run away."

Xu Damao immediately jumped onto the kang, and pulled Bang Geng back just as he was about to jump, throwing him onto the kang. "You really think no one can stop you? Just wait to be sent to the juvenile detention center."

Jia Zhang glared with triangular eyes and wanted to step forward to attack Xu Damao, but was beaten to the punch by two police officers.

The two men stepped forward, held down the stick, and carried it off the kang, then led it out of the house under the distressed gazes of Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu.

"I said I didn't steal anything, it was Shazhu who did it, and he made me do it."

Banggeng was escorted out of the Jia family's house and came outside the house, where he kept pointing and shouting at the neighbors.

Sha Zhu stood next to Yan Bugui, his face pale with fear. He didn't dare to run, and he knew he couldn't run away. If things got serious, it would be a big crime. Not only would he lose his job, he might also end up in jail.

Now Sha Zhu only hopes to settle the matter privately with Xu Damao, hoping that the other party can understand that all this is just a farce.

Seeing Xu Damao and others coming out, Sha Zhu swallowed his saliva, hurriedly trotted to Yi Zhonghai, and explained the matter in a few words: "Uncle, please help me, I was also blinded by hatred at the time, and I didn't expect the matter to become so serious. Besides, I really didn't know that Bang Geng stole Xu Damao's money!"

Wang Dabao found it hilarious and dropped his big hand heavily on Sha Zhu's shoulder, almost knocking him to the ground.

"Silly Zhu, you have a really bad eye for choosing teammates."

Wang Dabao sighed, "It hasn't happened yet, but Banggeng has pinned all the blame on you. Do you think you can still be good?!"

Sha Zhu was frightened, but he seemed to have realized something from Wang Dabao's words.
