Siheyuan starts to eat the old man

Chapter 280 Chapter 278 Yi Zhonghai's Memories

Seeing the fifth child walking away, Xu Wood didn't rush to leave here. Instead, he stayed where he was and lit another cigarette.

In my mind, I fantasized about Shazhu and Xu Yanxia's panicked and helpless expressions after the fifth child succeeded.Then let Lao Wu directly kill the child and bury it in any wasteland, and he will give Shazhu a reminder of where the child is every once in a while.

Thinking that after the success of the plan, Sha Zhu and Xu Yanxia lived in the repeated torment of hope and despair every day, and Xu Wood felt a burst of joy in his heart.

After smoking a cigarette, Xu Wood threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out. He looked around in a good mood, and when he found that no one was paying attention to him, he hummed a little song in a good mood and walked home.

"Why did you go, why is it so slow to send that little bastard Li Pingan?"

As soon as Xu Wood entered the room, he was questioned nervously by his wife.

"It's okay, it's okay, after delivering the bastard, I happened to meet a neighbor, and we chatted for a while, you hurry up and take out 3000 yuan, and I will send it to Chen Youfu later, don't delay saving our son." Xu Wood waved his hand, but didn't tell Lu Hongyu what he was going to do, he just found an excuse to divert Lu Hongyu's attention.

Lu Hongyu didn't know the fifth child. The dirty things that Xu Wudou did before liberation were well concealed. Lu Hongyu didn't know what bad things Xu Wudou had done behind her back. Will not take the initiative to disclose.

Hearing that her son was going to be saved, Lu Hongyu stopped worrying about these trivial matters, and hurried into the back room, and took out a wooden box from the hidden compartment.

After struggling to move the wooden box to the bed, Lu Hongyu took a key from another place, opened the wooden box, threw a dozen small yellow croakers on the bed casually, and then took out a large pile of cash from inside When he came out, he counted out [-] cards of Great Unity with distress, and after putting the things back together, he walked out of the back room with the money on his face.

Xu Wood took a small cloth bag to put the money in, looked up at his wife, and asked, "Without this 3000 yuan, how much money does our family have?"

"Our family has a total of 400 yuan in savings over the years. If it weren't for the 2000 yuan in cash in that box, we wouldn't even be able to make up the 3000 yuan. Now there is only 400 yuan left in the box." Lu Hongyu looked at the money in her family About to be sent to someone else's home, I feel very uncomfortable in my heart, and the tone of my speech is full of unwillingness.

Xu Wood could hear the dissatisfaction in his wife's words, so he comforted him: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if the cash is gone, isn't there still so many gold bars and jewelry, I will go to the black market tonight and get all the gold bars If you make a move, at least 3000 yuan can be recovered, and when Da Mao comes out, the box in the Lou family will be enough for Da Mao to marry ten more wives."

"Those jewelry and antiques should be worth a lot of money. It's useless to keep them at home. Why don't you sell them at night?" Hearing what her wife said, Lu Hongyu felt a little better, and said with a good face. Said.

For this proposal, Xu Wood thought for a while, but did not agree to it, but shook his head, not agreeing with this idea.

Seeing Lu Hongyu's puzzled expression, Xu Wood explained: "The value of those jewelry and antiques is higher than that of the small yellow croaker, but this is not advocated now. These things cannot be sold at a price on the black market. After the small yellow croaker is sold, Our family is not short of money, so we might as well keep these things and pass them on to future generations in the future, and they can be family heirlooms.”

Hearing what his wife said, Lu Hongyu nodded in agreement, agreeing with what his wife said.

Here, after Li Pingan drove the jeep back to the rolling mill, he went directly to Chen Youfu's office and reported the results of his coordination to Chen Youfu.

Hearing that Li Pingan got 3000 yuan, Chen Youfu felt happy for a while, stood up from the office chair, came to Li Pingan with a smile, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, you, originally a Thousands of jobs, once you make a move, it becomes three thousand, and when Xu Wood sends the money back at night, half of the money will be yours."

"Forget it, you'd better keep this money for yourself, I don't need it"

Now Li Pingan is really qualified to say this. Li Pingan really made a fortune by picking up the rags from Lou’s house. Li Pingan really doesn’t like the small money. The reason why he did this today is to disgust Xu Wood This old thing.

Regarding Li Pingan's words, Chen Youfu just felt that he was being polite to him. After all, no one would have trouble with money. Although the salary of Li Pingan's young couple was quite high, it did not reach the level of a few hundred yuan a month.

Therefore, Chen Youfu waved his hand and said in an unquestionable tone: "Ping An, don't tell me, you have to take half of the money, or you won't give me face."

Looking at Chen Youfu's firm expression, he knew that what he said was the truth. If he was determined not to take it, Chen Youfu might feel that he had other thoughts in his heart, so he nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, since You have said so, then I will continue the money, such a large sum of money is worth my salary for a year."

"Haha, take this money and go back and buy more clothes and shoes for Dr. Ding. Women like this."

"I'll take it with me to buy next week. What's more, Xu Wood's old stuff is too expensive. I didn't knock out all the things in the Lou family's box. I guess the 3000 yuan is only a small half of the box's value. "

"Normally, the old man Xu Wood has seen big storms. I asked someone to inquire about him. This old boy had dirty hands before liberation. He did a lot of immoral things, that is, there is no evidence. Otherwise, the police would have arrested him earlier. Woke up"

Hearing what Chen Youfu said, Li Pingan became interested and asked curiously: "Chen Chu, what did this old man do when he was young? Tell me about it."

"Before the liberation, this old thing seemed to have something to do with the people who took pictures of flowers. Children were abducted, kidnapped and extorted, and such immoral things were done a lot. That is, the situation in Sijiu City was chaotic before the liberation. At that time, the files in the police station were not well protected. , but there are some remaining files that record the gang that shot Hanako. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, they were investigated for a period of time, but after checking and checking, it was found that most of the gang ran away after liberation, and then they disappeared,” Chen Youfu pointed out. He lit a cigarette and told Li Pingan what he knew.

"Then how did you find Xu Wood? Could it be that he is a member of the flamboyant gang?"

"I caught a little minion in a gang. He said there was a guy surnamed Xu. Everyone in the gang called him Mr. Xu, but he had never seen him. According to this guy's information, the police listed several suspects at that time, and they quietly After following for a period of time, after following for a period of time, I found nothing, and after knowing the news that the team disbanded and ran away, I didn’t care about it anymore.”

After Chen Youfu finished speaking, Li Pingan raised a little bit of guard against Xu Wood in his heart, and went back to find Yi Zhonghai to inquire carefully.

If this old guy is really a member of this gang, it means that this old guy is a ruthless master. Once this kind of person suffers a loss, he will definitely retaliate. You have to be careful.

After chatting with Chen Youfu for a while, Li Pingan returned to his office and chatted with colleagues in Corey for a while. When it was almost time to get off work, Li Pingan rode a bicycle to the infirmary to pick up his wife and go home from work. .

In the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai has asked for leave these days because of eye problems. At this time, he is busy with the carving work of the crib. After seeing his nephew and nephew-in-law come back, he stopped his work and just wanted to take care of his nephew-in-law's health , was dragged into the house by Li Pingan.

"Uncle, how much do you know about Xu Wood? Do you know what he did before liberation?" Li Pingan asked in a low voice as soon as he entered the room.

Yi Zhonghai, who was still confused at first, became nervous when he heard his nephew asking this question. He looked at Li Pingan in a low voice and said, "Why are you asking about this? What happened?"

"It's nothing serious, I just heard from our director about some things that Xu Wood might have done before liberation." Li Pingan then briefly described the news he heard from Chen Youfu.

After listening to Li Ping'an's words, Yi Zhonghai frowned, lost in thought, and tapped the table with his fingers from time to time.

This posture was maintained for about 10 minutes, and Li Pingan didn't bother him, but just opened a bottle of soda that had been soaked in cold water in advance and drank it.

After waiting for a while, Yi Zhonghai woke up from his memory, slapped the table suddenly, and said angrily, "No wonder, it turned out that the bastard Xu Wood did it."

"What's the matter? What's the matter? What did you remember?" Seeing Yi Zhonghai's angry look, Li Pingan immediately guessed that Yi Zhonghai must have recalled something.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at Li Pingan, then looked outside the house, and after confirming that there was no one outside, he said with an ugly face: "Based on what you just said, I can basically be sure that the Xu family in the gang you mentioned Lord, it's the bastard Xu Wood"

"Do you have any evidence? If he is really a member of this gang, then we can't let him go, all traffickers deserve to die," Li Pingan asked quickly.

After listening to Li Ping'an's words, Yi Zhonghai shook his head helplessly: "How many years have passed, how can there be any evidence, I only thought of it after hearing what you said."

"Tell me about it, and I'll analyze it after listening to it"

"It was the year before the Japanese were driven away. There was a kidnapping case in the Hengshilan Hutong in front of it. At that time, a young son from a wealthy family was kidnapped. I remember that the kidnapper asked for 100 yuan. Dayang, at that time all used Japanese military tickets, and Dayang was not easy to deal with. In order to make up for the 100 Yuan Dayang, the family sold everything they could sell at home. Who would have thought that the child’s body would be found within a few days after the group received the ransom.”

Li Pingan is a smart person. Hearing Yi Zhonghai say this, he immediately understood that this matter might be done by the old man Xu Wood.

If it was Xu Wood who did it, it means that people like Xu Wood are too good-for-nothing, and can be described as devoid of conscience. The kidnapping is for money, and they also collected the money as required. , Those murderous bandits would not do this.

Sure enough, without Li Pingan continuing to ask, Yi Zhonghai paused, took a sip of water, and continued to talk.

"At that time, the black dog didn't do anything. After two days of pretentious investigation, it was nothing. Everyone who heard about it at the time thought it was strange. It's not that the kidnapping of meat tickets has never happened, usually The big family that was tied up, the bandits from the small family and the small family didn’t even look at them, and the bandits were all well-behaved, they would release them after they received the money, if their credibility was lost, who would pay the ransom next time, someone said at the time, This may have been done by the gang that took pictures of Hanako, the group of people who took pictures of Hanako are not humane, they are all scumbags, even worse than bandits and traitors."

"The reason why I am sure that this matter has something to do with Xu Wood is because Xu Wood worked in that family at that time, and the two nights before the accident, I can't remember the exact time, when I went out to the latrine at night , I heard Xu Wood talking to another person, I didn't hear the specific content clearly, but I vaguely heard that he was taking money to kill people"

Speaking of this, Yi Zhonghai sighed, and said with some self-reproach: "At that time, when I heard Xu Wood say that I was going to kill someone, I thought it was a conflict between gangsters on the street, and the neighbors lived in the courtyard. , I don’t want to report my neighbor, if I had called the police at that time, maybe I could have saved the child’s life.”

If what Yi Zhonghai said is true, it is basically certain that this old guy Xu Wood did it when he was young.

"Uncle, I don't blame you for this matter. At that time, even if you reported Xu Wood to Hei Gouzi, it's hard to say that Hei Gouzi didn't care about it." Looking at Yi Zhonghai who blamed himself, Li Pingan comforted him softly road.

Li Ping'an was right. Yi Zhonghai really couldn't do anything in the situation at that time. The Japanese were still standing in the Forty-Nine City. The puppet government was full of traitors. It was difficult for the policemen at that time to investigate cases and conduct criminal investigations. However, it is very positive to bully the common people.

When something happens to a big family, these black dogs will do their best for rewards, but this kind of kidnapping case of a small family has nothing in it. Don't worry, as for the honor of the police, it's even more nonsense, do you let the little devil come and give you the award if you finish the case?
Yi Zhonghai sighed, didn't dwell on this matter, but asked instead: "Ping'an, do you think we can go to the Public Security Bureau to report Xu Wood, and we can't let this conscienceless dog continue to live like this? "

Looking at Yi Zhonghai's firm eyes, Li Pingan shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Uncle, this happened before liberation, and we don't have any solid evidence, and their gang has been disbanded for many years. Well, even if you report it, you won’t be able to convict him.”
