Chapter 1523 Good Luck Continues (12)
Li Zhiguo and his wife then demanded that Li Qiuyun hand over the money, arguing that he was the grandson and Li Qiuyun was the granddaughter, and therefore had no right to take the money.

—At this point, Li Zhiguo and his wife didn't think about Linlang or their other cousins; they only felt that Grandma Li's money belonged to them.

Of course, he probably thought that none of the girls were entitled to the money, but his cousins ​​were entitled to it. He omitted it because he felt that as the eldest grandson, he should take the money himself.

Although feudal dynasties have been abolished for decades, some people still cling to the feudal idea that the eldest son and grandson of the old era should inherit most of the property, for the sake of their own interests.

In reality, he may not necessarily agree with those feudal ideas, but he certainly agrees with money. As long as the feudal ideas are beneficial to him, he is willing to abide by them.

Li Qiuyun naturally wouldn't take out the money, after all...

"I already told you my money was stolen, where would I get the money to give you? Besides, even if it wasn't stolen, I wouldn't give it to you, it was given to me by my grandmother!" Li Qiuyun said angrily, then continued to attack Li Zhiguo and his wife: "Stop playing dumb, you two definitely stole my money, give it to me now! Otherwise I'll report you to the police, and you'll be in trouble!"

Previously, when Linlang lost her money, she said she wanted to report it to the police, but Grandma Li stopped her, saying that it was bad luck to have the police search the house. Now that Li Qiuyun said she wanted to see the police, Grandma Li didn't stop her. She immediately said, "We should see the police to check. That's eight hundred yuan!"

She no longer cared about Li Zhiguo and the others questioning her about giving the money to Li Qiuyun; she only wanted to get the money back as soon as possible. After all, it was money she had saved up all her life, and she couldn't let it be stolen without her knowledge.

Li Zhiguo and his wife naturally wouldn't stop him; after all, such a large sum of money had to be found and given to him.

Linlang wouldn't stop it either, after all, she couldn't wait for the news that Grandma Li had given Li Qiuyun eight hundred yuan to spread, so that the neighbors would know that Grandma Li was only pretending to be nice to Linlang, but was really nice to Li Qiuyun. And if the news spread so widely, it would also reach the ears of the original owner's uncle and aunt quickly, so that the other family would come and make a scene, and all these parties would fight each other to the death as soon as possible.

Since no one stopped Li Qiuyun from calling the police, she naturally went to report it.

The police arrived quickly.

Eight hundred yuan is a huge sum of money these days; there's no reason why they wouldn't come after the police were called.

Moreover, their area has always been safe and there are few criminal cases, so the loss of eight hundred yuan is a significant case that naturally needs to be taken seriously.

However, Li Qiuyun called the police, and she was actually a little afraid that Linlang would bring up the matter of her lost money.

But Linlang naturally wouldn't mention it. Even if she had lost her money, so many days had passed and the scene would have been destroyed. How could the police investigate?

So Li Qiuyun was just feeling guilty and overthinking things.

The robots of the Linlang faction were extremely secretive, leaving no trace. In addition, the reconnaissance technology of this era was not advanced, so naturally no information was found.

The Li family members were naturally summoned by the police and questioned one by one, but nothing was found out—Linlang had experienced many trials and tribulations, so naturally nothing could be found out; the others had not stolen anything, so naturally nothing could be found out either.

The police also questioned the neighbors in the courtyard.

When the police came, the neighbors in the courtyard were frantically asking what had happened to the Li family. After all, the police had been called in for no reason; something serious must have occurred, otherwise, ordinary families wouldn't call the police. Hearing that Li Qiuyun had lost the 800 yuan her grandmother had given her, the neighbors had already gathered together to discuss it. Some said that the Li family always seemed to lose money; others said that Grandma Li was so biased, giving only to Li Qiuyun and no one else; some were betting on when the third son and daughter-in-law would arrive, since it was no wonder they would argue over Grandma Li's favoritism in giving her granddaughter 800 yuan; some said that Li's mother was too soft-hearted and didn't know how to fight for her daughter's interests; some said they couldn't believe Grandma Li had saved so much money, and so on. There were too many topics to discuss; this Li family affair would probably provide the neighborhood with something to talk about for a month.

When the police came to question them, they naturally told them everything they knew, including the fact that Linlang's money had been stolen some time ago.

When the police heard that a piece of money had been stolen from the Li family, they began to inquire about it.

The neighbors all spoke at once, recounting what happened that day.

"Linlang said that Qiuyun stole it, but Qiuyun said she didn't steal it."

"I heard there are over six hundred yuan, and dozens of tickets of various kinds."

"Linlang cried so hard back then. She wanted to call the police, but her grandma wouldn't let her."

"I think it was probably Qiu Yun who stole it, otherwise her grandma wouldn't have stopped her from calling the police. Look, her money was stolen today, and when she called the police, her grandma didn't stop her."

Upon hearing this, the police naturally went to inquire about the situation from the Li family.

Li Qiuyun naturally denied stealing.

Although the police sensed that she seemed somewhat guilty, they concluded through some questioning techniques that the girl probably didn't actually steal anything.

When the police asked Linlang why she hadn't mentioned the theft of her money that day, she explained that many days had passed, the scene had been completely destroyed, and going to the police would be useless. Furthermore, her grandmother was threatening suicide to prevent her from calling the police, so she couldn't bring it up again.

The police questioned Linlang a few more times but found nothing amiss. Clearly, after hearing from the neighbors that Linlang had lost her money and that Grandma Li and others had stopped her from calling the police, the police, though lacking evidence, felt that Linlang had a motive and thus questioned her further.

The reason why Linlang is suspected of having a motive is naturally because her money was stolen before, and she suspected that Li Qiuyun was the thief. It is possible that she went to steal Li Qiuyun's money in order to get her own money back.

However, just as they didn't get anything out of Li Qiuyun, they also didn't get anything out of Linlang.

In fact, Li Qiuyun had far more flaws than Linlang. Although after testing her, they felt that Li Qiuyun had indeed not stolen any money, it seemed that she had indeed tried to steal it, but hadn't actually succeeded. On the other hand, Li Linlang, whom they suspected had a motive, seemed to have no flaws at all.

Since Linlang, the victim, did not report the crime, the police did not pursue the matter further and did not press Li Qiuyun to confess whether she had stolen money from Linlang. This made Li Qiuyun breathe a sigh of relief.

Although the scene had been destroyed long ago, she was certain that the police would not be able to find anything out now if they tried to investigate. However, she was still worried that the police would keep pressing the matter. If she didn't find her money, but was discovered by the police for stealing from Linlang, they would arrest her and put her in jail, which would be bad.

Fortunately, the police didn't pursue the matter further, which relieved her.
