Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 805 The Shadow on the Wall!
A week later, around 11 a.m., Jia Dongming picked up his lunchbox and was about to go to the cafeteria when he suddenly received a message from the system.

"Master! Zhao Huidong's verdict has been delivered. The court has sentenced Zhao Huidong to twenty years in prison for the crime of disrupting a marriage."

Just as Jia Dongming was about to go to dinner, he received a message from the system informing him that Zhao Huidong had been sentenced to twenty years in prison. A smile of uncontrollable joy appeared on his face as he muttered to himself, "Zhao Huidong broke off an engagement and had an affair, and he was only sentenced to twenty years. It seems that the Zhao family must have paid a heavy price this time."

As soon as Jia Dongming finished speaking, he immediately asked the system with his mind: "System! Have you found out all the dirt on the other members of the Zhao family?"

"Master! So far we have only found that Zhao Huiping and Chen Weizhong have financial problems. The problems of other members of the Zhao family are still under investigation."

Upon receiving the message from the system, Jia Dongming immediately instructed it with his mind: "System! Since Zhao Huiping and Chen Weizhong have financial problems, then find a way to ignite this matter. Only by making the Zhao family feel a sense of crisis can we prevent them from getting away to cause trouble for me in the short term."

Around 10 p.m., in the staff quarters of the propaganda department, a dark figure took advantage of the darkness to sneak into a house. After searching around the house for a long time, the figure came out carrying a package and then climbed over the wall of the courtyard, preparing to leave the staff quarters.

Just as the shadowy figure climbed the wall, a patrol team happened to pass by the yard. The patrolman at the front heard the noise on the wall and instinctively raised his flashlight and shone it on the wall. Just then, he saw a shadowy figure flash past his eyes.

Upon seeing the dark figure disappear over the wall, the lead patrolman immediately shouted, "Who's on the roof?"

"Kang Dang"

The patrolman's shout startled the shadowy figure hiding on the wall. The figure quickly dropped the bundle in its hand, jumped onto the roof of the house, and fled rapidly to the other side of the yard.

Upon seeing this, the patrol leader immediately shouted, "Don't move! Or we'll shoot!"

Hearing the patrolmen's threats, the shadowy figure did not stop or surrender. Instead, under the cover of darkness, it ran frantically into the distance.

The lead patrolman saw the dark figure on the wall and it vanished from their sight in a flash. He immediately ordered his subordinates, "Guo Ping! You take two men and stay here to look for what that dark figure just dropped. The rest of you, come with me and chase after it."

The patrol team chased after the fleeing figure for a long time, but ultimately failed to find it. They had no choice but to turn back to the yard where they had first spotted the figure.

"Captain! The bundle that the dark figure left behind contained over twenty yellow croakers and over ten thousand yuan in cash." Guo Ping excitedly greeted his colleagues upon their return and reported their discovery to their captain.

The patrol team leader, upon hearing Guo Ping's report, showed a shocked expression. He quickly shone his flashlight on the package in Guo Ping's hand. When he saw the large sum of money inside, he immediately asked Guo Ping, "Guo Ping! Besides these things, is there anything else in this package?"

Upon hearing the captain's question, Guo Ping immediately nodded and quickly took out the ration book and some receipts from the package, replying, "Yes! There's another ration book and some receipts in here." Hearing Guo Ping's report, the captain immediately picked up the ration book from Guo Ping's hand, glanced at the information inside, and upon learning the owner's information, immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. He immediately instructed Guo Ping, "Guo Ping! You guys stay here, I'm going back to the station to make a phone call."

"Dingling! Dingling! Dingling!"

Around 10 p.m., the telephone in a small building in the Public Security Bureau's residential compound suddenly rang.

"Old Yan! The phone outside seems to be ringing."

The owner of the small building woke up from his sleep when he heard the phone ring. He then turned on the bedside lamp, put on the clothes that were placed next to him, put on his shoes, and went outside.

The middle-aged man walked out of the bedroom, reached out and turned on the living room light, then strode to the sofa, picked up the phone on the coffee table, and said in a very serious tone, "This is Yan Zhonghua! Who is this?"

"General Manager Yan! This is Wu Zhongping from the Municipal Bureau. I just received a call from the Xicheng District Branch. Their patrol team happened to run into a thief climbing over the wall of the residential compound near the propaganda station while on patrol. When the thief saw our patrol officers, he was so frightened that he dropped the stolen goods and managed to escape under the cover of darkness."

Upon hearing Wu Zhongping's report, General Manager Yan frowned and asked Wu Zhongping with a serious expression, "Xiao Wu! You're calling me so late to report on this theft case. Could it be that the thief stole something extraordinary?"

Upon hearing General Manager Yan's question, Wu Zhongping, recalling the report from the branch office, solemnly reported to General Manager Yan: "General Manager Yan! The patrol officers found 21 yellow croakers, 12,400 yuan in cash, 1,000 yuan in foreign exchange, and some receipts in the package left by the thief. The owner of these items is Zhao Huiping, the eldest daughter of Deputy General Manager Zhao."

"What! The owner of these items is Zhao Huiping. Can you confirm that these items belong to Zhao Huiping?" Upon hearing Wu Zhongping's report, General Manager Yan's face showed shock, and he asked Wu Zhongping in a very serious tone.

Upon hearing General Manager Yan's question, Wu Zhongping glanced at the stolen goods on the desk, nodded with certainty, and reported respectfully, "General Manager Yan! This is absolutely true, because in that package, besides these things, there was also Zhao Huiping's family's grain ration book."

After hearing Wu Zhongping's report, General Manager Yan pondered for a moment before ordering Wu Zhongping, "Xiao Wu! Immediately arrange for the technical department to extract fingerprints from the yellow croakers and cash. I'll call General Manager Zhong of the disciplinary department to discuss your findings with him and then call you back."

Upon hearing General Yan's order, Wu Zhongping immediately reported to him: "General Yan! After the branch office delivered the items to me, I arranged for the technical department to collect fingerprints on those items. The fingerprints have been collected now."

Upon hearing Wu Zhongping's report, General Manager Yan's eyes flashed with approval, and he replied with a serious expression, "Okay! Wait for my call in your office."
