Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales-Chapter 55: The Poor Child Killed by Her Uncle 11

"Young comrade, we are the police, here to investigate the case." One of the middle-aged officers spoke up.

Little Yuan Chun greeted politely, "Hello, officer. Are you here to investigate my second uncle’s stolen money? Have you found it yet? Has my second uncle’s money been recovered?"

"Not yet."

Without a single clue, the money could not be retrieved.

The middle-aged officer sighed.

Little Yuan Chun pouted and said, "My second aunt’s little brother is getting married. I heard it requires a lot of money. With my second uncle’s money stolen, how will my second aunt help him with the marriage? My second aunt helped her two older brothers get married, and last time because of this, my second uncle and second aunt had a fight."

The two officers seemed to realize something, their eyes brightening slightly.

The middle-aged officer looked at Liu Tiezhu, asking, "Comrade Liu Tiezhu, the money for your two brothers-in-law’s weddings, was it all provided by your wife?"

Liu Tiezhu explained, "Yes, but that money was borrowed by my two brothers-in-law. They gave me IOUs; it has to be repaid."

He wasn’t foolish; there’s no way he would just hand over money for his brothers-in-law’s marriages for nothing, as if they were his own sons.

"Which village are they in?"

"Xixiao Ge Village, five miles from here."

"Take us there."

"Okay, sure."

Once Liu Tiezhu agreed, he suddenly realized something and looked surprisingly at the middle-aged officer, "Are you suspecting that the money from my home was stolen by my younger brother-in-law?"

The officer analyzed, "This is a possibility. From our investigations these days, the case is likely committed by someone familiar. You mentioned your wife is feisty and doesn’t get along well in the village, has offended many, and no one wants to associate with you. There have been no outsiders in your home recently, yet the thief was able to precisely steal your money without prying open any boxes in your house. This suggests the thief already knew where your money was hidden, and your younger brother-in-law might have inadvertently learned this. Though, this is just a reasonable analysis and suspicion. Whether your younger brother-in-law is the thief will still need verification after interrogation."

Liu Tiezhu’s face turned somber, "No need for interrogation, it’s definitely him. He often comes to see my wife. One time, I saw my wife give him money, and I snatched it back. We even fought over it."

Liu Tiezhu, filled with rage, took the two officers to his father-in-law’s house.

Yuan Chun watched their distant backs gleefully, humming a song and bouncing back home.

Ge Xiaodan certainly didn’t steal his brother-in-law’s money, but he did steal someone else’s.

In the previous life at this time, Ge Xiaodan got involved with a pretty young widow. He hired a matchmaker to propose marriage, but the widow’s mother-in-law demanded eighty yuan as a bridal price, which he couldn’t afford. So he went to the city and stole from a family, whose money had an unclear origin, and they didn’t dare report the theft.

Not only did Ge Xiaodan secure a bride, but he also bought a bicycle.

He rode the brand new bicycle to his sister’s house to show off.

Liu Tiezhu thought Ge Cuilan had secretly given money to her natal family again, wanting to confiscate Ge Xiaodan’s bicycle. Ge Xiaodan got anxious and quickly mentioned the money’s origin.

At that time, the original owner was outside the back window picking vegetables and overheard this.

Little Yuan Chun accused Ge Xiaodan of stealing money because, in the previous life, Ge Xiaodan played a part in escalating the original owner’s death.

Zhang Jisheng was a good friend of Ge Xiaodan.

After Zhang Jisheng killed his first wife, his reputation was ruined, and no one wanted to marry their daughter to him. Ge Xiaodan couldn’t bear to see his friend single, so he targeted the original owner.

Ge Xiaodan knew Zhang Jisheng had killed his wife, yet he facilitated the match, pushing the young original owner into a pit of fire. Yuan Chun certainly wouldn’t let him off.
