Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Chapter 32 Should I report to the police? 1 Sir, you have the final say!

Wang Hongtao shouted with full energy, and he put in all his might, so that everyone in the yard could hear him.

Everyone had just returned from the hospital and had not had time to cook, so when they heard the fun, they all ran to the backyard to watch.

When they heard that there was a thief in the yard, the three uncles naturally took the lead.

For a moment, Wang Hongtao's door was crowded with people, and the entire backyard was filled with people.

In fact, this is still considered a small number. After all, it was not uncommon for a family to have as few as two or three children, or as many as five or six. Courtyards like No. 95 had already seriously lagged behind the society at that time.

Neighbors who were closer were looking through the door.

"Huh! Look at what it has become!"

"Yeah, this is too rude. All that's wasted is food!"

The third uncle Yan Bugui was the most distressed. Seeing the food being wasted, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. He wanted to rush in and gather the flour and rice on the ground, but was stopped by Wang Hongtao.

Are you kidding me? This is a crime scene! How can it be destroyed so easily?

"Everyone, stand at the door and don't go in. There are a lot of footprints in the room. I didn't dare to go in because I was afraid of destroying the evidence!"

"Second uncle, you are the one in charge of our backyard. Please ask someone to go to the police station and tell them that there is a thief in our yard."

"This thief dared to steal from our house today, and he will dare to steal from other houses tomorrow. We must find this thief!"

Yi Zhonghai disagreed: "It's almost the end of the year. Why report it to the police? If we publicize our excellent courtyard house, will we still want it?

I think we should not call the police, we should handle this matter ourselves."

"How can I not call the police? What if I delay and the thief escapes? What about my loss? Will you compensate me, sir?" Wang Hongtao naturally refused.

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said, "Tell me what you lost first and then we'll decide whether to call the police."

"How would I know this?

I saw a thief break into the house, but I never went in. How can I catch the thief if I destroy the scene?" Wang Hongtao said lightly.

"You can follow your advice and not call the police, but you will be responsible for finding what is lost!"

Yi Zhonghai suddenly lost his temper. He had just sent fifty people to the hospital and the patient hadn’t recovered yet. Now he wanted him to pay again?

"Let me consider."

Hearing Wang Hongtao talking about evidence and protecting the scene, Yi Zhonghai suddenly thought of something and stretched his neck to look into the house.

Hmm? These footprints???

Yi Zhonghai immediately understood Wang Hongtao's idea.

This kid wants to make things bigger and take the opportunity to send Banggeng to jail!

Yi Zhonghai was in a dilemma. If he could see it, how could the police see it? When the police came, the first thing they would ask was the children in the yard. Bang Geng would definitely not be able to escape it!

"First, tell me what's in your room. Everyone saw the truckload of stuff you moved in yesterday. You said you didn't have any money or tickets in the hospital just now."

Yi Zhonghai was afraid that Wang Hongtao would ask for too much, so he made a special reminder.

“I don’t have money but my Big Hat brother does.

I'm planning to renovate my house, and I went to Big Hat Brother to borrow fifty dollars yesterday, right, Big Hat Brother?

I hid the money very well, I put it under my pillow so it won't get lost!"

Xu Damao:? ? ?

Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and realized that Brother Lao Wang was planning to do something bad, so he hurried to help.

You have to know that old man Yi Zhonghai often bullies me, so I won't let go of this rare opportunity for revenge.

"Yes... that's what happened! I thought Wang Hongtao was a driver, and fifty yuan would only last a month, so I just lent it to him.

Right, brother?"

Wang Hongtao gave Xu Damao a thumbs up.

Yi Zhonghai's forehead was covered with black lines: "Tell me what else you lost!"

"It's only 20 kilograms of rice and 20 kilograms of flour. As for the tables and chairs, I think there are so many people in the yard that thieves would not dare to take them."

Wang Hongtao calmly doubled the amount of rice and flour. No one would believe it if it was more, so this amount was just right.

After saying this, Wang Hongtao looked around.

Xu Damao stood in the middle of the crowd trying hard to hold back his laughter, Lou Xiao'e was cracking melon seeds, the second uncle, the third uncle and others had serious expressions, and the rest of the people were just eating melons with great interest, including Sha Zhu.

That bastard Shazhu was hiding aside, gloating over someone else's misfortune, his mouth almost stretched to his ears.

I told you not to donate money to Sister Qin! You got robbed now, right? You deserve it! It would be best if the fifty dollars were all stolen and can't be recovered!

Banggeng, who usually watched the fun most actively, was nowhere to be seen at this moment, which just confirmed Wang Hongtao's guess.

"What do you think, uncle? Should we report this to the police or not? Once you have made up your mind, we should act quickly to avoid losing our reputation before the thief is caught!" Wang Hongtao urged with confidence.

"No report! Let the hospital handle it!" Yi Zhonghai said word by word with a gloomy face.

"What about the things I lost???"

"I'll help you find the thief. If you can't find him, I'll pay for it! Is that okay?"

Wang Hongtao smiled brightly: "What a generous old man! He took the initiative to take on the responsibility of catching the thief in order to protect the reputation of our courtyard. Neighbors, let's applaud him together.

"Quack, quack!"

Xu Damao was the first to respond: "Good! Great job, uncle!"

The others were unaware of the truth and were also led by Xu Damao.

“Clap, clap, clap…” There was applause from the audience.

Yan Bugui seemed to have thought of something, but since Yi Zhonghai didn't care about him, he naturally wouldn't say it out.

"Uncle, please go first."

Knowing that he had made money, Wang Hongtao showed great respect to Yi Zhonghai.

"Second uncle and third uncle, you two can come in too."

"As for the others, just wait outside. The house is small so we won't invite you in."

After entering the house, it was Liu Haizhong who first discovered it and shouted in surprise: "Old Yi, look at these footprints, the thief must be a child!

Only a child would do such a damned thing as wasting food!"

"Both our Tiehuan and Old Yan's Ruihua said that no outsiders came in. We just need to call the children in the yard to find out who stole it!"

Liu Haizhong's IQ was rarely online, and he was shouting and yelling at the side.

"Shut up, Lao Liu. I am responsible for what happened today. Whether I can catch the thief is my own business!"

"Old Yi, why are you like this? I'm doing this for your own good!" Liu Haizhong was a little indignant. He obviously meant well, and he didn't think his analysis was wrong at all.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui became more certain of his thoughts, and couldn't help but feel envious of Wang Hongtao: This kid is so lucky, if only it was his own house that was robbed.

Yi Zhonghai walked into the bedroom with a fluke mentality, and when he looked under the pillow, he found that there was nothing there, so he threw the pillow back onto the bed.

Looking at the flour jar and the rice jar, there was only a bottom layer left, about two or three pounds.

Wang Hongtao scratched his head, as if he had remembered it wrong. He originally bought five kilograms of each item, so this meant that he had cheated Yi Zhonghai out of thirty kilograms of grain.

Forget it, thirty kilograms is thirty kilograms. I’m a rich man anyway.

"Well, uncle, did you figure out anything? Otherwise, we should report it to the police. After all, fifty yuan plus thirty kilograms of food is not a small amount."

Wang Hongtao looked like he was concerned about Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai waved his hands at Wang Hongtao as if he was shooing away a fly.

He didn't want to say a word to Wang Hongtao now. He understood that Wang Hongtao had tricked him.

But he had to bear this loss!

If Banggeng was sent to jail, he believed that Wang Hongtao would definitely put the blame on himself.

He could even imagine the scene:

Wang Hongtao argued in a servile manner that he didn't know the things were stolen by Banggeng, and that it was an uncle who supported him in reporting the matter to the police.

How could his uncle not know if he, a newcomer, didn't understand Bang Jokes? So he should blame the uncle!

Then Jia Dongxu, Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu, Banggeng, and even Shazhu would transfer their hatred towards himself.

This kid is so bad!

"Okay, Wang Hongtao, you don't have to say anything. I already know who took the things. I will talk to him alone later and get the things back."

"I'll make up for the missing items first. Fifty yuan plus thirty-five kilograms of rice and flour, right? I'll give you the money and tickets."

"Take it!"

After saying that, Yi Zhonghai turned and left.
