After rebirth in the end of the world, I cut off all love and hoarded goods desperately
Chapter 150 Responsibilities
The one who took the lead in accusing Xiao Yi was a member of the Zuo family, a cousin of Zuo Hui. Their normal arrangement in the warehouse was three shifts, with twenty people in each shift.
But after more than three months, the shelter was safe and sound, so my cousin Zuo, who took over the matter, felt that so many manpower were a bit of a waste, so he streamlined the staff again and again, and now only eight people are on duty per shift.
The person on duty had been working for a long time and had become a slacker. Occasionally, they would discuss with each other and take turns to slack off, so the number of people would decrease privately.
This kind of lazy work has always been handled well. There is no problem with the warehouse. The people above think it is economical, and the people below also think it is convenient to be lazy. Unfortunately, now something bad has happened.
The entire warehouse was robbed, and the Zuo family is now an empty shell. The head of the family was so angry that he fell ill in bed, and his wife is guarding by his bed. No one knows where his son Zuo Hui has gone, and he has not been found yet.
Now, the ones who come with a group of people to call for punishment can only be the powerful and vigorous cousin of the Zuo family and the peacemaker Uncle Zuo.
Xiao Yi sat there motionless, not accommodating the newcomer at all. He said coldly, "Put down your tricks. No one in this shelter dares to point fingers at me. If you can't speak, I can have someone take you to the reformation camp for a few days so that you can learn well!"
Uncle Zuo was used to being domineering in his own family. He was full of anger and indignation, so he dared to break into the captain's office and question Xiao Yi.
Seeing that Xiao Yi was completely unmoved and even more powerful than him, he knew that this person was really as difficult to control as the rumors said.
How could a shrewd man who has been in the business world for a long time not know how to adapt? He was too embarrassed to admit it, so he angrily stepped aside and let another weakling from the Zuo family come forward.
The eldest uncle of the Zuo family stood up with a worried look on his face and said, "Don't be angry, Captain Xiao. My brother just lost his temper for a moment. I apologize to you on his behalf. He acted like this for a reason."
Uncle Zuo stopped talking here and looked at the other two groups of people behind him. Those two groups were none other than Chen Ziyue's family who also lost supplies, and the other group was Qin Lisen, the head of the Qin family, and his men.
Xiao Yi still sat there without moving, just looking at the documents on the table, completely unaware of Uncle Zuo's intention to clear the area. It depended on whether Uncle Zuo was willing to continue the strategy of using force first and courtesy later.
The eldest uncle of the Zuo family also knew that his family's methods had annoyed Xiao Yi, so he had to turn around and clear the scene. He said to the two families behind him: "Everyone, we have some private matters here that we want to discuss with Captain Xiao. Please understand and give us some space."
The Qin family is not in a hurry, but the Chen family is very anxious. However, there is nothing they can do. The Zuo family has spoken, so they must give face.
After the Zuo family members asked the Qin family and the Chen family to leave a safe distance, they told Xiao Yi in the office that their entire warehouse had been robbed. They especially reminded Xiao Yi that he was responsible for the safety of the shelter and that he had no shirking his responsibility in this matter.
Xiao Yi was surprised in his heart but did not show it on his face. The Zuo family's wealth in this shelter was second only to the Jian family, and they had also been the most active in making small moves before.
Now that he heard the news, Xiao Yi really didn't know how to express his feelings?
Without supplies, the Zuo family would lose their confidence. This was a bit of an advantage, but that was all.
The Zuo family's supplies could also help the shelter, and they were lost under his jurisdiction, which was not good. If they could not be found, he would have to take 80% of the blame. Moreover, if the Zuo family failed, the Jian family would become the dominant family.
Although the Jian family has someone above them and seems to be cooperative, who wouldn’t want the chance to seize sovereignty?
For Xiao Yi, if he doesn't want something anymore, he can throw it away by himself, but he must not be forced to throw it away by others.
Uncle Zuo became even more dissatisfied when he saw that Xiao Yi was still calm. The Zuo family also had their doubts. The first one to be suspected was the Jian family, the second was the Qin family and the group of disaster victims who had recently moved in, and finally, the one they were a little suspicious of and felt was Xiao Yi.
However, sometimes the most unlikely thing is also the most likely. Now that things have come to this, they can only put all the pressure on Xiao Yi.
Uncle Zuo spoke again: "Captain Xiao, although these supplies belong to our Zuo family, they support not only our Zuo family, but also nearly half of the shelter! Now that our warehouse has been suddenly robbed, the biggest loss is the shelter. We are not trying to embarrass you, but we also signed a security agreement at the time. Now that something like this has happened, how can we sit still?"
Xiao Yi then stood up and said, "Whether it is our responsibility or not, I have to see the scene to judge. Moreover, such a large batch of supplies suddenly disappeared overnight, and there was no abnormal news from our sentry post. This is a bit unreasonable."
Xiao Yi looked at the Zuo family meaningfully: "At the beginning, we specially opened the team's warehouse and suggested that everyone's supplies could be stored together, but your Zuo family disagreed and found another place. Now this kind of thing has happened..."
Uncle Zuo understood what Xiao Yi meant and said angrily, "What do you mean? Do you think we are the ones who stole the property?"
Xiao Yi put on a thick coat and said, "Whether it is true or not, we will know after I take people to the scene."
Uncle Zuo stopped in front of Xiao Yi and said, "Captain Xiao, this matter has a significant impact. In order to avoid unrest among the people, this matter must not be known to others."
Xiao Yi understood the Zuo family's concerns, and he also had some considerations: "I know that before the matter has a result, the news will not be leaked from us. You should take good care of your own people."
Xiao Yi walked out of the office with a frosty face, knocked on the doors of two rooms on the way, and asked the team members to go out with him to do some work. Although the supplies belonged to the Zuo family, they were indeed the backup force of the shelter. The severity of this matter was very serious. Although Xiao Yi appeared to be very calm, he was actually quite shaken inside.
If he really catches which group of people did this, he will kill them all without any discussion!
The Chen family wanted to go up to Xiao Yi to do something, but they were stopped by the Zuo family: "Sorry, Captain Xiao is a bit busy now, why don't you find someone else to help you deal with things."
The Chen family could only retreat and stand aside obediently. They also wanted to solve their family affairs quietly. There were still some supplies left at home, which would be enough to last for three or four months, but they did not come to the shelter to live this kind of life.
Jin Kaixiong watched Xiao Yi and the Zuo family walk away, then he spoke with indignation: "Didn't you say that you two are relatives? Is this how the Zuo family treats their relatives now? I don't think they even recognize who we are?"
Chen Niansheng stood aside awkwardly, not knowing what to say. Chen Ziyue looked at the departing crowd thoughtfully and said, "Maybe something big really happened to their family? Didn't you see how serious they all looked?"
Jin Kaixiong's heart moved, and he whispered to his wife, "Did you guess something?"
Seeing that he understood what he meant, Chen Ziyue asked, "Don't you see that they are as anxious as we are?"
Chen Niansheng finally reacted and said in surprise: "No way? That's the Zuo family, the well-known pillar of this shelter!"
Chen Ziyue sighed: "It's better not to be like this. If it is, our future situation will be even more difficult!"
On the other side, Qin Lisen saw Xiao Yi taking his men away, and his mood was also fluctuating. Last night, after his granddaughter found him fainted outside her door, she immediately called someone to wake him up.
The grandfather and grandson talked for two hours. Qin Mingyue insisted that Qin Lisen go to Xiao Yi to confess, and only asked to donate all the family property to save her grandfather's life.
It's not that she listens to the mysterious man very much, but because she has justice in her heart and knows that she has indeed done wrong, and she also cares more about her grandfather's life. This mysterious man appeared as soon as he said he would, and now the world is in chaos, so she is really worried about her grandfather's safety.
Qin Lisen had accepted the news that the mysterious man had told him that his son and his wife had passed away after talking with his granddaughter.
He now mustered up the courage to confess. First, he wanted to expose the conspiracy of that group of people and avenge his son. Second, it was for the safety of his granddaughter. He could die, but he could not implicate the child.
Qin Lisen wanted to donate his family property, only to ensure the safety and health of his granddaughter after the refuge. As for himself, life or death did not matter to him.
The Zuo family members intercepted Xiao Yi. Qin Lisen only stood there for a while and then led his people away, just to give the grandparents and grandchildren more time.
Chen Niansheng watched the Qin family leave and couldn't help asking his sister, "Did the Qin family also get robbed? They live right in front of us."
Chen Ziyue shook his head: "Not really. Let's not study them for now. Should we look for other staff members? Or wait for Captain Xiao to come back?"
Jin Kaixiong and Chen Niansheng looked at each other, then back at Chen Ziyue. Chen Ziyue had no choice but to make up his mind: "Why don't we wait and see if the Zuo family has any news? It would be better for us to contact Captain Xiao about our affairs."
They still have some face to save now and don't want the fact that their house was robbed to become known to everyone.
Li Ke had no idea what happened in the shelter. After she had a good rest in the space, she walked a long way and observed the surroundings to see if there were any traces of the people who had been transferred away.
She didn't go out of her way to look for these people. If she met them, it was her luck. If she didn't, it was also her luck. She was alone and couldn't take on such a big thing.
After finding a building in the village and making sure that there was no one around, Li Ke began to clear the snow and dig a hole. After connecting to the main door, he unlocked the door and entered the building.
After tidying up a nice living space, Li Ke brought out those people who were still unconscious in the space. After keeping them for so long, it was time for them to make some final contributions.
