"Why did you steal public meat?" the police asked.”
"Because there was no meat at home, I wanted to eat it, so I stole it.”
"Is this your first time stealing meat?"
Silly Zhu nodded and did not speak.
"According to our investigation, your salary is 37.5 yuan. You shouldn't be short of money or meat! Why did you go back to steal meat?"
Silly Zhu didn't know how to answer. He couldn't say that the Jia family next door asked him to steal it!
Qin Huairu was alone with a few children. If she was locked up, the children at home would not have anything to eat.
He was silent and did not answer the police.
The police officer was getting impatient. He slammed the table and said,"Comrade He Yuzhu, I'm asking you a question, do you hear me?”
"Don't think that you can escape responsibility just because you don't say anything. You're stealing the public's flesh this time! This is a big crime!"
"As long as you tell us the truth, we will still be lenient!”
Silly Zhu also looked at him angrily and said,""I said I didn't have meat at home, so I stole it!”
"What does it have to do with my salary? I just want to eat meat!"
The policemen took a deep breath to calm themselves down and said,"Alright! According to what you said, the meat must be at your house!”
"Because it was too late yesterday, the search warrant was not approved. Now that it has been approved, we will search your room.”
Silly Zhu covered his head, not wanting to listen to them.
"Please tell me the truth. Where did you hide the stolen goods?”
Silly Zhu kept quiet and continued to ignore the police.
They wanted to make Silly Zhu speak to save time for the search, but they didn't expect him to be so uncooperative.
They directly took the handcuffs and approached Silly Zhu, cuffing him up without a word.
He hadn't handcuffed him yesterday because he looked rather obedient and thought that it would be more comfortable to just sit there.
He didn't expect that he would change 180 degrees today. The police officer was very unhappy and directly handcuffed him!
Silly Zhu struggled with all his might, but how could he break free from the handcuffs? The police officer couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him and walked out.
He was left alone inside, shouting,
"Let me go! What right do you have to handcuff me! Why?!"
However, no one paid attention to him. Two police officers went to change shifts with the police officers who were on guard last night and searched Shazhu's house in an instant.
After they arrived at the courtyard, they went straight to Shazhu's room. After showing the search warrant to the people in the courtyard, they went in to search.
They searched the place thoroughly. After searching for a long time, they only found half a catty of sliced pork in the closet.
There was also some leftover meat in the bowl and the kitchen. No matter how hard they searched, they could not find the meat anywhere else.
They were extremely puzzled. They looked at their target and asked,"That's strange. Didn't you say you lost five pounds of meat? Why is there only so little now?"
There was only a small piece of meat in the black bag. No matter what, it couldn't weigh five pounds.
However, they searched the entire room and did not find any traces of other meat. They were very puzzled.
He had no choice. He searched the entire morning but could not find the meat.
It was already noon and they were a little hungry. They chose to go back to the police station to eat first and ask Silly Zhu in the afternoon.
……
After dinner.
The police took the black bag that they had looted and placed it in front of Shazhu. He asked seriously,""How many pounds of meat did you steal?"
Shazhu said without thinking,"About five catties, more than four and a half catties!"”
The policeman opened the bag in his hand and placed it in front of him. He asked,"Four catties of meat, but we only found half a catty!”
"Where did the rest of the meat go? Tell me the truth!"
Silly Zhu expressionlessly raised his eyebrows and said,""Eat it! Where else can we go?"
"Can you eat more than four catties of meat a night? Who are you lying to!"
The police did not believe his nonsense. Any normal person would choke to death if they ate more than four pounds of meat in a meal.
"Tell me honestly, do you have any accomplices who will share the loot with you? Please don't hide the truth. The consequences will be very serious.”
Silly Zhu did not receive his threat at all and said seriously,""There are no accomplices. I ate it alone!”
He did not rat out Qin Huairu. It was not that he could not bear to part with Qin Huairu, but he could not bear to part with his three children.
If he said it, not only would the three of them not be able to eat meat, Qin Huiru would also be investigated and might even be fined.
He was going to go to jail anyway. He might as well take the blame alone. Why make things difficult for his family?
No matter how the police thought about it, it was impossible, but Silly Zhu refused to tell the truth.
"How did you eat? You can eat four and a half catties?”
"I cooked braised pork, stir-fried pork with chili, Dongpo pork, and so on! If I can't finish it, I'll give it to my neighbor!”
"They don't know that I stole this meat. Can't I give it to them if I can't finish it?”
The police did not expect to meet such a troublesome person, so they could only let this matter go.
Since he had said so, she had to believe him even if she didn't want to.
"Alright! Then come with us to the steel mill and recreate the whole process of you stealing meat!”
Silly Zhu stood up without a word and followed the police to the canteen of the steel mill.
……
In the cafeteria,
At this moment, there was nothing else to do.
They were going to rest for a while before they could get off work. After all, the canteen matters were different from the employees 'working hours.
They cleaned up and prepared the food for the next morning. After resting for a while, they could get off work.
They also got off work earlier than the workshop staff because they had to go earlier in the morning.
Lin Tian saw that it was almost time, and there was nothing else to do. He asked them to get off work first, and he stayed here to check again.
After yesterday's incident, the ingredients that Lin Tian needed to use and how much he needed to use were clearly marked.
Every day, he would take according to that amount. If he took more, his money would be deducted! They were not the kind of people who stole things, so it did not matter.
Lin Tian was sitting alone in the cafeteria, taking stock of how many things he had used today. She saw the police bring Silly Zhu over.
He immediately stood up and looked at the police officer pressing down on Shazhu. His hands and feet were still cuffed. He felt comfortable looking at them.
"Officer, if you need anything, just let me know. I'll serve you!”
The police looked at Lin Tian and knew that he was the person involved last night. He said directly,"Almost five catties of meat was stolen from your canteen, right?”
Lin Tian nodded to show that he was right. The police officer said,"But we only found half a catty of meat in his house. We didn't find any other meat.”
