Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

Chapter 5 Grain Station Theft
drop--

The system is loaded.

Pushing aside the clouds and mist in front of you, you can see a cozy forest courtyard.

The unfamiliar yet familiar environment made Su Mu's thoughts surge.

This is a one-to-one replica of my grandmother’s small village in my hometown.

Three hills to the east of the village are connected and filled with childhood memories.

There are jungle shrubs all over the mountain. You can eat wild fruits as you like. You can dig out bird's nests, roast birds' eggs, chase roe deer, trap flying dragons, use mud dams to wash water and catch fish in the creeks, and plunge into the bay where you can go boating at the foot of the mountain. Can reach more than 20 meters...

Between the mountain and the bay is 47 acres of land.

On the south side of the bay is the grain field, on the north side of the bay is the rolled drying yard, called the farm yard in the village, and behind it is a three-sided courtyard with five large tile-roofed houses.

That's where my grandma lived for half her life.

To the west is a woodland. It is said that when Sumu’s father was a child, he was there during the Arbor Day. It is still full of fruits and the woodland is lush with leaves.

There is a two-story villa on the east side.

It was built when Sumu Company went public to support my parents in their retirement years.

However, in an accident, Su Mu came here, and from then on, he parted ways with everyone.

Maybe if you think about it every day, there must be a response.

Sumu’s Golden Finger is such a farm space.

The host names it when loading is complete.

Su Mu labeled it without hesitation: Grandma's courtyard.

……

morning.

Su Mu came to the house to have breakfast.

You can feel that Su Chuanjun was obviously relieved.

After dinner, Su Mu went to the street as usual.

Work when there is work, and find a corner to bask in the sun when there is no work, which can also save energy.

Commonly known as squatting.

Su Mu's camp was near Beixinqiao.

Diagonally opposite is the gate of the backyard warehouse of the grain station.

Li Wei went out for a ride and saw Sumu on the way back.

Who else could it be but the boy with the bruised nose and swollen face who made people shudder at the sight of him?

"Humph."

Li Wei entered the office.

"Yesterday I saw a temporary worker who used to work here get into a fight with someone in an alley. Don't let him work at the grain station in the future, just in case."

"Which one do you say?"

"Well, the guy squatting over there has a bruised nose and a swollen face. He doesn't look like a good person. He seems to be named Su Mu..."

There is no silver 300 taels here.

Everyone knew what was going on, and several aunts turned to look at Liu Xiaojuan with meaningful smiles.

"understood."

"Okay, I know what's going on."

"Row."

"Listen to you, stationmaster."

"Associate."

Li Wei smiled and emphasized.

All this was under Su Mu's observation.

All disturbances within a radius of 150 meters cannot escape Su Mu's ears.

System loading brings about an improvement in his own abilities.

Back in the office, Li Wei was still a little worried.

It's not that I'm worried that the people at the grain depot will send work to Su Mu, both under the guise and under the hood.

But he was worried about whether he would retaliate if he kept staring at this place.

After thinking for a moment, while Liu Xiaojuan was going to the backyard, she got up and chased her out.

Several aunts at the counter in the outer room immediately started whispering to each other, mixed with a few chuckles.

Everyone sweeps the snow in front of their own door, and no one cares about the frost on others' tiles.

In the eyes of this group of employees, Su Mu's targeting and pressure were nothing more than something to talk about after dinner.

It is the best side dish to pass the time.

The function is equivalent to eating melon seeds.

"Xiaojuan, let's go watch a movie after work."

"Aren't you on duty tonight?"

"No delay, I'll come back after watching the movie."

If someone really stole food, it would be in the middle of the night when everyone is quiet.How could a blind thief pry open the door of a grain station when there are pedestrians walking on the street?

"Oh, then I'll go back and tell my family first."

"I'll stay with you."

"Ok."

After making an appointment with Liu Xiaojuan, Li Wei felt relieved.

I returned to the house and looked out through the window, only to find that no one was there.

Li Wei laughed at himself.

I blame myself for being too careful.

Su Mu was unemployed. He dared to break up with Su Shengli because he was a family that knew the inside and out. He dared to fight with the people Su Shengli led, or because they were from the same compound and knew each other.

He is the deputy director of the grain station. How dare he try?
I wouldn't dare to borrow their courage...

After work.

Li Wei took Liu Xiaojuan to the Red Star Cinema to watch a movie on a bicycle.

Holding a small bag of melon seeds for 8 cents, Li Wei took Liu Xiaojuan's hand without any delay.

Soft and warm.

The two young men and women were a little excited. They held hands, as if they had eaten forbidden fruit. They felt that their hearts were much closer.

However, the good times did not last long.

this night.

The grain depot was stolen.

The person on duty is Comrade Li Wei, deputy director of the grain station.

The Beixinqiao Police Station received the report the next morning.

The grain station lost the money and tickets from the previous day, as well as half of the grain in the warehouse.

This was the worst theft of 1958 to date.

You know, starting last month, all parts of the country are facing food shortages.

The city has held more than one meeting to encourage citizens to eat coarse grains with fine grains and call for food conservation.

As other provinces began to reduce the proportion of grain supplies, there was such a big theft of grain in the capital.

This kind of problem occurred at such a critical moment.

It is beyond the imagination of all those who come into contact with this matter.

Is it a real theft, or is the person in charge just committing theft?

Not ruling out all possibilities.

Because the grain station itself also has problems.

The relevant responsible persons bear most of the responsibility.

Because as the case investigation deepened, the police station received an important report.

Li Wei went to the Red Star Cinema to watch a movie after get off work that day.

Went to see a movie during his duty time.

This time, it was confirmed that the deputy director of the grain station had neglected his duties.

Li Wei's patron, his uncle who worked in the Grain Bureau, only got an overview of the matter over the phone, and then left a few words and no longer had the intention to help his nephew move around.

"Actively cooperate with the investigation and truthfully explain the facts."

At first, Li Wei thought about covering the lid. When he discovered the problem, the first person he informed was his uncle.

However, I got such a feedback.

He couldn't struggle, and neither could his uncle.

The hole is too big. Not to mention Li Wei alone, even all his parents, uncles, relatives and friends can't do anything about this hole.

I can only lie down and let the situation develop.

The food theft case was so big and the impact was so huge that the Beixinqiao Police Station did not dare to neglect it and reported it as soon as possible.

It is now taken over by the Municipal Bureau.Gao Xianggao Brigade of the Second Criminal Investigation Team is in charge.

Li Wei's parents relied on many connections and finally met Li Wei.

Although the couple expected that they would not be able to make a comeback, they would still make the necessary efforts.

Even salted fish must be turned over, otherwise how can it be sprinkled with salt?

"Since the crime was committed by a gang, could it be outsiders who know the grain depot...those porters?"

"Xiaowei, have you offended anyone in this area recently? Think about it carefully..."

The conversation between Li Yufen and her son made the Gao team next to them frown.

But when you think about the ironclad case, how can a woman get away with it with just a few words?

He turned and looked out the window.

This girl's glasses have Parkinson's disease, and her eyelids feel like they're cramping when she blinks.

Out of sight...be quiet.

Captain Gao Xiang shook his head secretly.
