Hearing Jia Zhang's words, despite the critical situation, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but twitch his mouth:

After living for most of his life, this was the first time he felt that the words "innocent" were not innocent.

While the two were talking, the other people in the yard were finally awakened by Cao Shuang's voice.

"Where is the thief?"

These days, everyone is hungry and cold, and they hate creatures like "three hands" very much.

When they heard Cao Shuang's shout, the young men in the yard were all furious, and some even came out with shovels and hoes:

If it's someone from our own yard, it's fine, but if it's a stranger, hmm~

"Here."

Seeing Sha Zhu running in front with a stick as thick as his arm in his hand, Cao Shuang was stunned at first, and then a big smile appeared on his face:

It was the first time he felt that this guy was not so annoying.

"Cao Shuang?"

Cao Shuang was happy, but Sha Zhu obviously didn't think so.

When he saw that the person shouting was Cao Shuang, Sha Zhu's face darkened and he almost dropped the stick in his hand and left:

If he had known it was this grandson, he would definitely not have run so fast.

But now that everyone in the yard is here, Sha Zhu can't act too stingy.

Holding the stick, he slowly walked up to Cao Shuang, and then Sha Zhu looked around:

"Where is the thief? Are you kidding me to make fun of us in the middle of the night?"

"Xiao Shuang, where's the thief?"

Not only Sha Zhu, but also Yan Bugui and others who arrived after him also asked questions.

Compared to Sha Zhu, Lao Yan's questions seemed much friendlier:

"Did they run away? It's okay. There are so many of us..."

"He didn't run away. I locked him in the cellar."

Before Yan Bugui could finish his words, Cao Shuang interrupted him:

"I went out to the bathroom at night and saw two people sneaking into the cellar together. In order to prevent them from running away, I locked the door."

"here you go!"

As soon as Cao Shuang finished speaking, the voice of Liu Haizhong, who was pregnant, rang out.

"A thief broke into the yard, which is a major problem related to the safety of our entire yard. Cao Shuang was able to discover it in time and come up with a response plan. This time he performed very well."

As the second uncle in the yard, Liu Haizhong finds it difficult to show his dignity on weekdays due to the existence of Yi Zhonghai.

Now that I have the opportunity, of course I don’t want to miss it.

Seeing the excitement on Liu Haizhong's face, Cao Shuang couldn't help but laugh:

"Uncle, in this situation, should we ask the police station to come over?"

"That's right!"

After delivering his speech, Liu Haizhong was thinking about what to do next. Cao Shuang's words just gave him the biggest clue:

Since he is a thief, he should be sent to the police station.

After nodding in agreement with Cao Shuang's words, Liu Haizhong continued:

"Guangqi, go to the police station now and tell them..."

"No, don't go to the police station."

Just as Liu Haizhong was about to say something, a familiar voice suddenly rang out from the cellar:

"It's me, open the cellar!"

"This is……"

As Yi Zhonghai's loyal lackey, Sha Zhu was only slightly stunned, and then he recognized the owner of the voice:

"Master!"

With a cry of surprise, Sha Zhu's eyes fell on Cao Shuang:

"Cao Shuang, what the hell are you doing? Why did you lock me up in here?"

"This……"

Hearing Sha Zhu's words, Cao Shuang showed a puzzled look on his face:

"Did you hear me wrong? What was an old man doing in the cellar in the middle of the night?"

Before Sha Zhu could speak, Cao Shuang added:

"And I saw two people entering the cellar. How could there be only one person's voice..."

Halfway through his words, Cao Shuang clapped his hands together:

"I understand!"

"What?"

Cao Shuang's sudden action scared Sha Zhu, who was closest to him.

After letting out a cry of surprise, Sha Zhu looked at Cao Shuang with a dark face:

"What did you find? Why don't you let the old man out?"

"No, no."

Shaking his head, Cao Shuang looked serious:

"I saw two people walking into the cellar with their arms around each other's shoulders. Now there is only the voice of the old man. He must have been held hostage by the thieves."

"What should I do?"

After hearing Cao Shuang's analysis, everyone present was stunned. Liu Haizhong even asked directly:

If Lao Yi was held hostage, then the other party was not just a simple thief, he was a gangster!

After figuring this out, Liu Haizhong even took two steps back to increase the distance between himself and the cellar door:

Compared to pretending to be cool, he obviously cares more about his personal safety.

Chapter 142 I, Liu Haizhong, am the smartest person in Siheyuan!

"Go to the police station and report the crime!"

Ignoring Liu Haizhong's trick, Cao Shuang once again gave a solution:

"We are not capable of dealing with this kind of hostage-taking thugs. The best way is to let the public security comrades handle it."

"Uncle, don't worry!"

After finishing his words, Cao Shuang stretched his neck and shouted towards the cellar:

"With us here, the thieves won't dare to touch you. When the police come, we will rescue you."

"Yes, that's right."

As Cao Shuang spoke, Liu Haizhong nodded hurriedly:

"Don't worry, Lao Yi, I will definitely rescue you."

"Guangqi, go to the police station and report the case!"

……

Because of the conversation between Cao Shuang and Liu Haizhong, everyone in the yard thought Yi Zhonghai was an unlucky guy who fell into the hands of thieves. Only an old lady standing in the crowd had a strange expression:

Wasn’t Old Yi going to deliver cornmeal to the Jia family? Why did he go to the cellar?

"No, I'm fine."

Hearing Cao Shuang turning the topic back to reporting the case in a few words, Yi Zhonghai in the cellar was so angry that he almost bit his teeth off.

However, the most urgent task was to get out of the cellar first, so Yi Zhonghai could only try to control his emotions:

"I'm the only one in the cellar. There's no one else. Open the door quickly and let me out."

"impossible!"

As soon as Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Cao Shuang's affirmative voice rang out:

"I saw two figures enter the cellar with my own eyes. There will definitely be no problem."

"The uncle must have been held hostage by thieves. Don't trust him."

"But……"

After hearing Cao Shuang's words, someone in the yard showed hesitation:

"What if what the uncle said is true?"

"Absolutely impossible!"

With a sudden wave of his hand, Cao Shuang looked determined as if he was about to join the party:

"If there was only one uncle, why would he go to the cellar in the middle of the night?"

His eyes fell on the person who was speaking, and Cao Shuang asked:

"Would you go down to the cellar in the middle of the night?"

"No, it won't."

Being interrogated by Cao Shuang in front of so many people, the person who spoke suddenly lowered his voice:

It's the middle of the night and everyone is asleep. Who would have the time to go to the cellar?

"That's right. Who would go to the cellar at this time of night?"

With a sneer on his face, Cao Shuang continued:
