Chapter 217 Liu Yaohui says Xia Yichu stole the gold bars
In the morning, Xia Yichu had just finished washing up when someone knocked on the door. She went out to open the door and saw that it was Xia Zhiheng.
"Liu Yaohui confessed, but he denies stealing the gold bars. He says you stole them. Come with me."
For some reason, Liu Yaohui claimed that Xia Yichu stole the gold bars. He told the police that when he first stole jewelry, he opened the box and found eight gold bars.
He didn't open the jewelry box the second time he stole it, but Xia Yichu had been to the Luo family's house, so he had the opportunity to steal the gold bars. The police didn't believe him and unanimously concluded that he was the one who stole the gold bars.
"I told Grandma Xia yesterday that we'd go to the Zhou family to propose marriage together."
Xia Yichu was surprised that Liu Yaohui would think of her, but she wasn't afraid. In fact, she really wanted to see Liu Yaohui and hear how he thought of her.
"When I came, I called Grandma and told her that you wanted to stay at home with Qingyan today instead of going to the Zhou family. Uncle has already driven them to the Zhou family."
"Okay, let's go then."
Xia Yichu closed the door, got on Xia Zhiheng's motorcycle, and drove off. The two didn't speak; the noise of the motorcycle made it inconvenient to talk. They arrived at the police station about ten minutes later.
"Don't be nervous. Those gold bars are more valuable. Liu Yaohui wants to pin the missing gold bars on you to lessen his punishment."
After all, the sentencing standards for stealing something worth a few thousand yuan are different from those for stealing something worth tens of thousands of yuan. Stealing something worth a few thousand yuan can result in a prison sentence of up to three years, while stealing something worth tens of thousands of yuan can result in a prison sentence of three to ten years.
"Okay, I understand."
Xia Yichu calmly walked into the police station. Seeing that she didn't seem nervous at all, Xia Zhiheng didn't bother saying anything more.
"Xiao Liu, take her over to give a statement. Xiao Chu, just tell me the details of what happened at your uncle's house that day."
Xia Yichu nodded and walked with Xiao Liu. Xia Zhiheng went to the office. He had originally taken the day off to go to the Zhou family's house, but his colleagues from the bureau called him early in the morning to tell him about the results of Liu Yaohui's interrogation yesterday.
Although Liu Yaohui's words provided no evidence that Xiao Chu had stolen anything, he thought it would be better to bring Xia Yichu to the school for questioning. That way, no matter how far the investigation progressed, no one would go looking for Xiao Chu at the school.
A little while later, Xia Yichu came over to find Xia Zhiheng, "Brother Zhiheng, it's done."
"Okay, do you still want to go to the Zhou family? I'll take you there."
Xia Zhiheng thought the little girl liked to join in the fun, and there was still plenty of time, so he grabbed his motorcycle keys and prepared to leave.
"No, I want to see Liu Yaohui and ask him why he said I stole the gold bars."
"Xiao Chu, that's not important. Just because he says something doesn't mean it. We need evidence."
"I'm curious, I want to know, so please let me see him."
Xia Zhiheng thought for a moment before saying, "It's impossible for you to see Liu Yaohui. They will interrogate him again later. I'll take you outside the interrogation room to listen, but you can't speak."
"Okay, I promise I won't say a word."
"Okay, sit for a while, I'll be right back, don't wander off."
Xia Zhiheng needed to go out and make some arrangements to satisfy Xia Yichu's curiosity.
"Okay, got it."
Xia Yichu sat down in Xia Zhiheng's office chair and picked up a book on criminal psychology from his desk. She read for half an hour before Xia Zhiheng returned.
"Xiao Chu, that's enough, let's go."
"it is good"
Xia Yichu put the book back in its place before standing up and going out with Xia Zhiheng.
"You like reading psychology books? I have several; I'll get them for you when I get back. What are your plans after graduating from university? Would you like to work in the bureau?"
Read more books on this topic now, so you can pass the entrance exam after graduation. I see you're quite skilled; did you learn from your uncle before?
Xia Zhiheng truly felt that Xia Yichu was perfectly suited for their line of work; she was bold yet meticulous, courageous yet resourceful. Needless to say, her fighting skills were exceptional—even Zhou Weimin had fallen victim to her.
Even someone as formidable as Pei Shizhou in the army took about twenty minutes to catch up with her on the mountain. Xia Yichu couldn't understand how a young girl could run so fast. She had no idea what he was thinking; if she did, she would surely say, "In a life-or-death situation, if you don't run for your life, are you just waiting to die?"
"No, I don't like it. I didn't learn from my uncle; I didn't have any experience fighting with people since I was a child."
Xia Yichu said it casually, but Xia Zhiheng felt very guilty. His younger brother was right; his mother indirectly caused his aunt's death, while Yang Yunxian directly caused her death. The two brothers were the beneficiaries of this situation.
During that time, his mother studied desperately. She would only come home from school after everyone else had fallen asleep at night, probably to avoid thinking about his father's death.
Although Yang Yunxian also works, he cooks for them before and after get off work. He doesn't work overtime in the evenings and spends his time chatting with them. Xia Zhiheng stays home during the day to take care of his younger brother and Liu Chengye. He was actually home the day his aunt came to visit; it just so happened that Yang Yunxian was off work that day.
He usually takes care of his two younger brothers at home. Because Liu Chengye can't walk yet, they play at home and at the door while Yang Yunxian goes to work. They can't go out to play.
That day, he was playing with his younger brother at the alley entrance, while Yang Yunxian and his mother stayed at home. At that time, he was too young to understand anything.
When he and his brother got home, they saw their aunt walking away looking distraught. They asked Yang Yunxian who she was, and Yang Yunxian said she was someone asking for directions and told him to mind his own business.
"Xiao Chu, I'm sorry, my mom..."
"Stop, stop talking, I don't want to hear these words."
Her mother passed away when she was young. Xia Yichu might feel sad and upset about her mother's death, but she doesn't feel the same heartache as when her uncle's family members passed away one after another in her previous life.
Perhaps because she was young at the time and didn't remember much, she didn't have much of a relationship with her mother. Her childhood memories were mostly of eating, drinking, and playing with her cousin.
"Okay, I won't say. If you need help in the future, just ask."
"Then I'd like to ask Liu Yaohui myself."
"That won't do."
Xia Yichu snorted and stopped talking. Xia Zhiheng was embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Bringing Xia Yichu here was already Xia Zhiheng's bottom line.
"Xiao Chu, we'll wait here. Liu Yaohui will be here soon. Tell me if you have any other questions for him."
Xia Zhiheng led her to a cubicle in the interrogation room, where they could see the people inside, but the people inside should not be able to see them.
"there is none left"
They had just sat down when two men brought Liu Yaohui in. They made Liu Yaohui sit down, and then they sat down as well before beginning their questioning.
"Liu Yaohui, tell me the whereabouts of those gold bars."
"I've explained everything clearly. I really didn't steal the gold bars. Have you arrested Xia Yichu? It was definitely her who stole them."
If you were to ask Liu Yaohui why he was so certain that Xia Yichu stole the gold bars, the answer would be his intuition.
"You're not being honest and you're trying to frame others. Your mother, Xu Yumei, said she would help you pay back the money for those jewelry and gold bars. You still want to argue?"
Xu Yumei came to the police station yesterday wanting to see Liu Yaohui, but was refused and asked to give a statement. Xu Yumei isn't stupid; if she tells the truth, she might be arrested for harboring a criminal.
So she said she didn't know her son had stolen anything, that he must have stolen it when she wasn't looking, but that she would pay back the money for him. The police were actually trying to trick Liu Yaohui with this questioning.
"No, I really didn't steal the gold bars. How am I supposed to explain this? My mom doesn't know anything, so her word doesn't count."
