Uncle Zuo sat next to Xiao Yi with a frown on his face, but Uncle Zuo could not stop for a moment, looking at the situation here and asking about the progress over there, but the closer it got to the end, the more anxious and upset he became.
Uncle Zuo said angrily, "Look, look, look, look, you have poked all the rat holes in the warehouse, but there is no progress at all. What do you want to eat?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Zuo hurriedly stopped his brother: "Why are you yelling? Professionals should do professional things. Why are you making trouble? Get out of here."
Uncle Zuo snorted, but still obediently stepped back and sat down next to his eldest brother.
Xiao Yi also heard what Uncle Zuo said, but he didn't even look at him. After he sat down, he clapped his hands and told his men to go home.
There was no clue outside the door, and no vehicles or goods were found entering or leaving the exits. The personnel registration was also very clear, and they were all people from the Zuo family.
Xiao Yi was in a daze just now because a bold idea suddenly popped up in his head. Is there some person with special abilities who can carry space with him and take away everything here without any effort?
Xiao Yi also knew about some of the current online articles, which were so imaginative that he could think of nothing but the best. He read some of them for entertainment for a while, but later on he found them too funny, so he gave up completely.
People like them really don't have much interest in this kind of writing.
But at this moment, after observing the scene, if the people from the Zuo family did not lie, all the supplies in such a large warehouse disappeared overnight, and there was no sign of transportation. Xiao Yi felt that this association was the only explanation.
But soon his divergent thinking was called back by Uncle Zuo's anger. The supplies were lost, and Xiao Yi was no less distressed than the Zuo family. He was even angrier than the Zuo family. If the Zuo family had agreed to store the supplies with the government, how could they just lose them now?
They arranged for people to keep it themselves and also wanted to save food rations and reduce the number of guards. They are really capable!
Now that things are lost, they want to put the blame on Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi won't tolerate them.
Uncle Zuo saw Xiao Yi stand up, and immediately stood up as well: "Captain Xiao, did you find anything? What do you think is going on? Where did our supplies go?"
The team members gathered around, and most of them shook their heads in silence. Xiao Yi knew that they didn't discover much. The guards said that the visitors had released a lot of tear gas, but their people didn't even find an empty can at the scene. If the guards were not lying, then this group of people were too cautious.
Xiao Yi did not have a good attitude towards the Zuo family, and directly replied coldly: "Millions of tons of supplies were swept away overnight. No car entered or left the checkpoint outside last night. You should not ask me now, but ask yourselves, how did you manage to get rid of this batch of materials?!"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Zuo became anxious again, but was slapped hard by Uncle Zuo, so that he stopped himself from saying anything wild to Xiao Yi.
Uncle Zuo said to Xiao Yi sincerely and eagerly: "Captain Xiao, there is no need for our Zuo family to do this! If we really did such a thing, how could we be so stupid as to come to you and let you laugh at us and cause trouble for each other? Please check carefully again. Since these things have not left, they must be hidden somewhere in the shelter. We must track them down as soon as possible to recover the losses!"
Xiao Yi naturally thought of what Uncle Zuo said, but this matter was too weird. If it wasn't for the Zuo family causing trouble themselves, Xiao Yi would have suspected that his own men had collectively rebelled.
"I'll take these guards away first. You can check your own people. Report any findings to us as soon as possible so that we can solve the case quickly. I'll bring people to meet your family head this afternoon to learn more about the situation. As for what you mentioned, I'll make arrangements.
However, you have to know the situation yourself. The things in your own warehouse and in the hands of your own people disappeared inexplicably, and there is no trace of transportation inside or outside. You know what the situation is. Don't always use the responsibility of our law enforcement team to make things up! "After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he took his people away first. No matter how long he stayed here, he would not get more information.
Uncle Zuo shouted at their backs: "What's their attitude? Don't they want to take some responsibility?"
Uncle Zuo rolled his eyes at him and said, "Be quiet, what else do you want them to be responsible for? What? Do you want them to open an official warehouse to resupply you with supplies? Wake up and stop being stupid!"
Uncle Zuo said unconvincedly: "Maybe our things have been put into the official warehouse? Such a big move, no one else can do it except them."
Uncle Zuo sighed. There was no need for their family to embezzle, and the authorities had no reason to do so either. Just as Xiao Yi said, the strangeness of the matter was also noticed by the Zuo family.
There are sentries at the entrances and exits of each area of the shelter, and even their own exit outside the warehouse has a guard post, but so far everyone's statements are consistent, and no unusual people or vehicles were seen entering or leaving.
Uncle Zuo said, "Let's go back and discuss this with our second brother. He is the head of the family, so it depends on what he does about this matter."
Uncle Zuo's face froze, and he said with a bit of fear: "Brother, you have to plead for me when the time comes. I have good intentions and want to save some food. Such a large group of people, all strong men who can eat and drink, if we really feed them, they can eat up our entire warehouse."
Uncle Zuo looked at him with disappointment, and walked outside without saying anything. Thinking of the storm he would soon face, Uncle Zuo had no choice but to follow his brother's footsteps with a headache.
He Ru didn't sleep well that night. Her daughter and grandson slept next to her, but her heart was still not at peace. She felt the joy of recovering what she had lost, but also deep worry.
Mengmeng had been missing for a few days, and no one knew what had happened during that time. Although her daughter did not show it, He Ru always felt that Mengmeng seemed to have changed a little, but she could not tell what it was.
He Ru was very worried that her daughter might have encountered something bad, which led to these changes. However, there was a stranger lying on the small bed next to her. He Ru was tormented in her heart for the whole night but did not ask.
As soon as it was six o'clock in the morning, Liu Jingyan got up carefully from the small bed and gently packed up everything. He Ru soon heard the noise and got up as well.
Liu Jingyan whispered, "I want to go to the recruitment office earlier to have a look. The weather has been bad recently, and the temperature has dropped too much. Many jobs have been suspended, and it's hard to find a job."
He Ru nodded and said, "That's right. Go ahead and leave your things at my house for now. Don't worry, there's no one in our family who touches other people's things."
Liu Jingyan smiled and said, "I was just thinking of asking Auntie for help. It's just a few pieces of clothing for bedding, but it's all I have, so I'll temporarily leave them at Auntie's house."
After packing up, the two went out together. Liu Jingyan went to find a job, while He Ru went downstairs to make food for her daughter and grandson. Perhaps because Meng Meng was back, although He Ru did not sleep well last night, her spirits recovered well, and the previous feeling of being sick and weak was gone.
Li Meng opened her eyes after the two of them left. She had woken up a long time ago, but she didn't want to face them or speak, so she continued to pretend to be asleep.
After getting dressed and patrolling the room, Li Meng placed a stool on the bed and hid his hidden pistol and a box of bullets in the ceiling.
There were two layers of thermal insulation cotton under the ceiling partition. Li Meng squeezed her hand along the middle gap and pushed open the upper partition. Then she put her things away, restored the partition, and slowly got out of bed.
There was a knock on the door. He Ru had just left for a while and would not come back so soon.
Wang Zhuo called the door from outside: "Mom, Mengmeng, open the door, I brought back breakfast."
Li Meng locked the door when she hid the things, so people outside couldn't open the door even with the key. She took the stool off the small bed and slowly made the bed smooth, ignoring Wang Zhuo's knocking at the door outside.
Seeing that her son seemed to be about to wake up, Li Meng hurried over and patted him gently. He opened his eyes for a moment and then closed them again.
