Director Zhang smiled and looked at Director Wang who understood and took over the topic: "Grandma, according to our preliminary investigation, the rumors about your martyr's family originated from the malicious spread of some people in the hospital. We will further investigate this point..."

"Hey, Xiao Wang, what did you say? I didn't hear you clearly." The deaf old lady took a few steps back, her face full of evasion. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was hinting that she would not pursue the matter any further and she would not say anything more.

To everyone's surprise, a problem that was expected to be solved after a fierce argument was actually resolved in a moment. Cao Futao was secretly relieved when he saw this. He planned to report the matter to Director Yang tomorrow. After all, Director Yang always attached great importance to production and was not willing to give special care to people with bad behavior like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong.

After leaving the police station, Cao Futao immediately went to the steel mill and reported the progress of the incident to the factory office leader. He carefully described the whole story, but Ding Guangnan remained silent. At the end, the deputy factory director said calmly: "Go back, you did a good job today. Shazhu didn't come to work, go to the canteen first, don't let the workers go hungry."

Cao Futao left Ding Guangnan's office puzzled, but he did not forget to rush to the cafeteria to arrange dinner. Ding Guangnan immediately called the director of the security department, Dong Yongxu:

"Boss, there is a capable newcomer who wants to join our security department. He is a member of the ** Regiment of the ** Army, and is just right for the position of head of the security department."

Dong Yongxu was silent for a long time after hearing this. Although he had doubts in his heart, he still responded:

"Okay, Lao Ding, since you recommended him, I will definitely examine this candidate carefully. As long as he can pass my assessment, everything will be fine."

Ding Guangnan smiled and put away his phone. He knew that this move was just right. As for the reason behind it, he was probably the only one who knew it.

Although they didn't need to call them by their names, they all knew they were referring to Yang Ziming and Li Mei's family. Yang Ziming had a gloomy face, his eyes were full of resentment, and he lowered his head.

As for Li Mei's family, only Li Mei showed a sad and innocent expression, while Zhang Xiaofang didn't care and looked calm.

"Old Li, bring Lily up with you. The neighborhood committee will issue you a certificate of being a relative of a martyr and a plaque of honor," said Section Chief Wang.

Old Li led Lily forward and took the certificate of honor and plaque of honor awarded by the neighborhood committee with both hands. His gratitude was beyond words, and then he took Lily back to their original seat and sat down.

"I state again that the three managers in the yard were not appointed by the neighborhood committee. It was Grandma Wu who initially brought them to us, saying that they were mediators elected by the residents, so we acquiesced, but they cannot represent the neighborhood committee." Section Chief Wang said in a firm tone.

Everyone looked at each other and understood what was going on - these three administrators were just deceiving the higher-ups in order to gain power, and even so, the things they could manage were nothing more than trivial matters.

"Since they have not committed serious violations in the past, the neighborhood committee will no longer hold them responsible for deceiving their superiors. All the rules they have made are now abolished."

"In addition, regarding Grandma Wu's case, she was alone and helpless, and the neighborhood committee has already arranged five-guarantee benefits for her, not because she is a relative of a martyr. I hope everyone will stop mentioning the matter of Grandma Wu making shoes for ** martyrs." Section Chief Wang explained.

Everyone had guessed this a long time ago, and after seeing the martyr's family plaque awarded to Lao Li's family by the neighborhood committee, they finally confirmed it.

Afterwards, Section Chief Wang elaborated in detail on the results of the investigation over the past two days.

Finally, he concluded: "That's all we have to say today. If you have any questions, please feel free to go to the neighborhood committee for consultation. Now, let's talk about what everyone is most concerned about, which is the missing money from Li Mei's family."

"Li Mei, did your family really lose money? How much money was lost?"

Before Li Mei could react to the question, Zhang Xiaofang answered, "My family did lose money, more than 1,000 yuan."

Seeing that Zhang Xiaofang spoke first, Li Mei had no choice but to follow suit, "Yes, Chief Wang, I also lost more than a thousand yuan."

Section Chief Wang glanced at the two women, then glared at Yang Ziming - Is this the Li Mei who has a hard life as you mentioned?

"Then tell me, where did all this money come from? If you can explain it clearly, the neighborhood committee and the police station can help recover it."

When talking about money, Zhang Xiaofang and Li Mei's eyes immediately lit up.

Zhang Xiaofang then explained in detail the source of the money, which included the salary left to her by her late husband Zhao Dachuan, Zhao Dachuan's survivor allowance, and the 150 yuan living expenses given to her by Li Mei every month.

Except for the salary left by Zhao Dachuan, which cannot be confirmed, the rest can be quantified.

"Zhang Xiaofang, do you have evidence to prove the amount of Zhao Dachuan's salary? How much was your family's monthly living expenses when he was alive?" asked Section Chief Wang.

Zhang Xiaofang shook her head. This was really difficult to answer.

When it was Li Mei's turn, Section Chief Wang continued to ask: "How is your situation? Where did you get your money?"

Li Mei bit her lip and said, "Those are all the results of my hard work. I saved them bit by bit."

Section Chief Wang slammed the table and asked, "You have worked for three years but can't earn this much money. How did you save this money?"

In fact, she borrowed most of the money from He Jianzhu, but it was obviously difficult to say it. Li Mei could only cry to win sympathy.

"Yang Ziming, what we can confirm now is that Zhao Dachuan's pension is 500 yuan, plus the 360 ​​yuan living allowance that Li Mei gives to Zhang Xiaofang every month, a total of 860 yuan. Do you approve of this amount?"

Seeing everyone's confusion, Section Chief Wang emphasized again: "After verification, Zhang Xiaofang did lose 860 yuan. Because the three administrators prevented the police from reporting the loss, the lost money could not be recovered, so the three administrators should be responsible for compensating for the loss."

Everyone felt relieved and expressed their support for the decision of the neighborhood committee and police station.

Yan Zhijie was full of resentment and shouted: "Chief Wang, I didn't make those rules."

"Can anyone prove it?" Section Chief Wang asked.

No one responded, and everyone remained silent for fear of offending the administrators.

Zhang Xiaofang realized that she could only get back 860 yuan, and she burst into tears: "Chief Wang, what about the rest of my money?"

"Since you can't prove where the remaining money came from, we naturally have no way to help recover it. If you have evidence, we will do our best to assist," replied Section Chief Wang.

This problem left Zhang Xiaofang with no way to refute. Even Li Mei could not confirm the exact amount of Zhang Xiaofang's property.

In Lin Zhonghai's house, there were broken porcelain all over the floor. He was still furious, gasping for breath.

Seeing that something was wrong, the aunt quickly called Grandma Li over.

When Grandma Li entered the house and saw the messy house, she frowned and said, "Zhong Hai, it's just a small setback, it shouldn't be like this, right? You've been through so many ups and downs before, how come you can't handle such a small thing?"

Lin Zhonghai ignored the debris on the ground and sat down.

"Grandma Li, I can't swallow this. I put a lot of effort into the courtyard house and made it a model community. Why did Wang Qiang negate all my efforts with just a few words?" His voice was trembling and his eyes were full of unwillingness.

Grandma Li sighed and said helplessly: "Who would have thought that Wang Qiang was so capable? Not to mention that he is better than you in words, even his subordinates are as good as you. Not only are your old methods useless, but they also harm you."

Lin Zhonghai widened his eyes, as if he couldn't believe what Grandma Li said.

"Grandma Li, you are confused!"

"I'm not confused. Losing is losing. What's there to argue about? You should think clearly about why you lost this time."

Lin Zhonghai had thought about this question countless times. He had started thinking about it since the big meeting that night.

But he still couldn't figure out why he failed. Was it just bad luck?

Aunt Zhang sobbed and said, "Our Xiao Liu's salary for more than half a year was kept in the cabinet, and it's gone just like that."

Director Zhang glanced at Deputy Director Wang and took his men to search the homes of Lin Zhonghai and Liu Dahai respectively.

Of course, there were no clues.

Director Zhang's face became more and more ugly, and he kept asking Lin Zhonghai and Liu Dahai whether they had lost the money.

Both families said that the money was locked in the cabinet and hidden in the clothes. Few people left the house at ordinary times, so the possibility of theft was very low.

The neighbors were frightened by the incident in the yard and left one after another. Deputy Director Wang took the money from Zhao Fugui's family and announced: "Lin Zhonghai, Liu Dahai, you two families will hand over the money to the street office tomorrow, and the street office will return it to everyone."

The second aunt cried and said, "Director Wang, our family also lost money."

Deputy Director Wang glanced at the second aunt and said, "If Liu Dahai and the other two hadn't stopped us and called the police, the thief would have been caught long ago. I think he asked for it."

Many people gloated over the misfortune and agreed with Deputy Director Wang's words. Almost every family in the Siheyuan had lost something, and whenever someone wanted to call the police, they were always stopped by the three people.

When it was their turn, everyone felt relieved.

Zhang Xiaohua's heart skipped a beat after hearing what Deputy Director Wang said. This time the money was not lost by her, but the things lost in the courtyard before were basically caused by her family.

Seeing Deputy Director Wang leaving with his men, Zhang Xiaohua finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although most of her money could not be recovered, she was still very happy to get back more than 600 yuan.

After the people from the street office and police station left, people couldn't wait to go home and celebrate.

When Tian Youfu passed by Wang Kun's house, he thanked him. Then, the families of Qian Xiaoqiang and Li Mingliang also expressed their gratitude.

Wang Kun smiled. It was indeed a surprise for them to get back the dozen yuan donated by each household.

When he got home, his daughter Cher stared at the sign in his hand curiously.

"Dad, what's the use of this sign?"
