"Si Gang, do you have anything to say now?"
Captain Li directly pointed out Si Gang, who was so frightened that he hid behind Qin Huairu, clutching her clothes tightly.
What did the police mean? Why was he bringing up Si Gang? Shouldn't they be looking for the thief? What could Si Gang possibly say?
Someone with a quick mind reacted: "You idiot, what else could he say? He should explain how he stole the money!"
Huh? Was that money stolen by Si Gang?
Was it strange that Si Gang stole something? He had done it more than once! It was just unexpected that this time he had stolen such a large amount. Fortunately, he had stolen from his own family and from Yi Zhonghai's family!
Haha, this is going to be interesting. In the past, Si Gang had been stealing from our courtyard and causing trouble with Yi Zhonghai, insisting we shouldn't report it to the police. Now that he has stolen from their home, they are the ones reporting him. Hehe, I wonder if Si Gang will get caught!
As people murmured and pointed at Si Gang, Qin Huairu turned around in disbelief and asked him, "Si Gang, did you really take that money?"
Si Gang's face turned pale as he bit his lip and lowered his head in silence.
Seeing her son like this made Qin Huairu's heart sink. She grabbed Si Gang's shoulders and said angrily, "Si Gang! Look at your mother and tell me whether you took the money from home!"
Jia Zhangshi also heard what everyone was saying. Now seeing Qin Huairu questioning Si Gang, she pushed Qin Huairu aside and exclaimed, "Qin Huairu, what do you mean? Are you suspecting that Si Gang stole the money? Let me tell you, my good grandson is a good child and would never steal money from home!"
"Isn't that right, my good grandson? You don't have to be afraid; Grandma is here. No one can wrong you!" Jia Zhangshi comforted the pale-faced Si Gang as she hugged him tightly.
Feeling Si Gang's slight trembling, she glared at Captain Li in anger: "Is this how you police solve cases? Our home was robbed, and instead of catching the real thief, you're trying to arrest my grandson! Is there no justice left in this world?"
"Oh dear heavens, please show your spirit! You're going to drive this lonely old woman to her grave!"
"Jia Zhangshi, shut up!" Director Wang scolded as Jia Zhangshi began to throw a tantrum.
Jia Zhangshi was indeed afraid of Director Wang; upon being reprimanded, she stopped her outburst and started to sob as she complained to Director Wang: "Director Wang, our Jia family is suffering! We finally have this one remaining descendant left, and now he's being wrongfully accused of being a thief. How are we supposed to live after this?"
"Jia Zhangshi, the police do not wrongfully accuse people during investigations. You stay aside and let Si Gang speak!" Director Wang ordered two staff members from the neighborhood committee to take Jia Zhangshi away.
After Jia Zhangshi's commotion, Si Gang's complexion improved slightly. In the past, whenever he got into trouble, his grandmother would cause a scene and everything would be fine. He thought it would be the same this time! But unexpectedly, as soon as his grandmother started making noise, she was stopped!
Now facing Captain Li's piercing gaze alone, Si Gang lowered his head again.
"Si Gang, if you don’t speak up now, when I arrest you it might just end up with a death sentence!" Captain Li began to intimidate him again.
After saying this, Captain Li exchanged a glance with one of his subordinates. Understanding immediately what his captain meant, Xiao Wang took out handcuffs and swiftly cuffed Si Gang.
