Chapter 211: The Thief Screams to Catch the Thief?

After Li Weidong 'took power', his first order was to comb through the information of the owners of the farm.

Yes, everyone.

Whether it's the workers on the farm, the prison guards, or the inmates who have been borrowed from other farms, as long as they are here, they all have to be checked.

Even the people from the Institute of Archaeology.

Since it has been determined that he is a habitual offender, Lao Jianghu, then those who have a history of theft must be the first suspect.

At present, there are not a few people who are sent to the farm for renovation because of stealing.

With Zhao Haifeng's support and even leading by example, no one in the entire new farm dared not cooperate, let alone contradict him.

Even Gong Jiadong had to honestly explain his experience last night, and whether anyone testified to him.

This is also the reason why Li Weidong insisted on waiting for Zhao Haifeng to come.

Without the support of the other party, he would not have been able to do this.

Maybe Gong Jiadong will follow behind his ass and make trouble for him.

Just in the afternoon, a piece of information was placed in front of Li Weidong.

He first sorted out those inmates, and the reason why they were the first suspects was not that they were the most suspicious, on the contrary, they were the least suspicious.

Since the dormitory had not yet been built, they had to return to their respective farms in the evening.

Moreover, there are people supervising each other, and once you go back, it is not easy to sneak out in the middle of the night.

This is still different from Wu Lao Liu's escape.

After all, after he escaped, he was soon discovered by a cell and reported to the police.

If the person who stole the gold and jewelry was among them, not only would the other party have to sneak out in the middle of the night, but also go back without knowing it, which is not ordinarily difficult.

Of course, just because it's difficult doesn't mean it's impossible.

The other party was able to make the two prison guards guarding the gold jewels get hit, and it was not difficult to make the people in a cell sleep like dead pigs.

But because of Wu Laoliu's escape, now various farms have also strengthened night patrols.

In addition, most of them were busy cultivating the land before, and they were guarded by prison guards, and the office where the things were placed was at least a kilometer away.

Moreover, Li Weidong not only analyzed, but also called the suspected inmates for questioning one by one, and eliminated the suspicion of these people with that super perception.

Then there are the farm workers and prison guards.

They are far freer than those inmates, and the tomb has been excavated for some time, and it has been rumored in private for a long time, and there are even many people who are curious to find out what good things have been dug up over there.

Because there are too many inmates on the farm, even Li Weidong can't call all of them for questioning, and it is easy to make a fuss, which is not in line with the original intention of wanting to keep it secret in the first place.

But the number of workers and prison guards is much less.

And almost all of them are suspicious.

Li Weidong naturally won't let it go.

However, when everyone was questioned, nothing was found.

In this process, Professor Xu Qingping also got the news and rushed over.

Although his face was a little unsightly, it was not as angry as he imagined.

After all, the age is there, maybe he has experienced this kind of thing in the past few years, and it is no longer strange.

What's more, the main thing that was stolen was gold jewelry, although these things also had a certain value, but in his eyes, they were not even comparable to a piece of porcelain.

He cares more about whether those antique relics, those porcelain with research value, are lost.

"Professor Xu, I'm sorry for your trouble."

Li Weidong looked at Xu Qingping with some tiredness between his eyebrows, and it was estimated that he was tossed a lot.

After all, age is there, even if there is a jeep car, but it is a dirt road with potholes, and it is not easy to stand it.

"It's okay, after all, no one wants this to happen, how about it? Any clues to see? ”

Xu Qingping didn't mind.

The key is that he also knows that this matter has nothing to do with Li Weidong.

The two have known each other for a while, and he knows a little bit about Li Weidong, and he doesn't bother to go into the tomb on weekdays, and he never cares about what is dug up inside.

"After a preliminary investigation, the prisoners and workers on the farm did not find any clues." Li Weidong said.

"The people here at the institute also want to investigate?" Xu Qingping asked.

"Yes, it has to be treated equally." Li Weidong said categorically.

The reason why he put the people on the side of the institute at the end was not to give Professor Xu Qingping face, nor did he want to wait for him to come, but the people from the institute were the most suspicious!

From a normal point of view, if the farm withholds something that should belong to the research institute, the other party will definitely be angry, and it is not impossible to take revenge.

And they also know where to put things, looking for someone to steal the gold and jewelry quietly, the people on the farm, especially Gong Jiadong, will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

In addition, if something like this happens, the farm side will not have the face to detain those antique artifacts anymore, and they can all bring them back to the research institute.

It's definitely a win-win, or even a triple-win.

In this way, it is no wonder that Li Weidong will suspect them.

"It should."

After hearing this, Professor Xu Qingping did not get angry, but nodded very reasonably.

"The people on the research institute, including me, will cooperate with the investigation and will not shirk anything."

"Thank you, Professor Xu, for your understanding."

In fact, while speaking, Li Weidong has also been observing the other party, but he also did not find any problems.

The other party is very calm, and there is no sign of weakness.

Even if this matter was really related to someone in the institute in the end, he believed that Professor Xu Qingping was unaware.

Next, Li Weidong asked people from the institute to be called in one by one, and each of them asked if the other party was there last night and whether there were any witnesses.

However, after all the people in the research institute asked, Li Weidong still didn't find out.

Even Meng Dayong's uncle and nephew, who had been helping there, were very calm, swearing that they were definitely not the ones who stole gold and jewelry.

It is estimated that he was also afraid, Li Weidong directly planted the blame on them, and made a trick.

After all, they had been bent on robbing tombs before, and now it was normal for them to be tempted to see so much gold and jewelry.

If it was someone else, it is estimated that the two uncles and nephews would have been arrested and interrogated properly, after all, they are also very suspicious.

But Li Weidong just asked a few words and let the two leave.

Then, after sending away the two prison guards in charge of the record, he fell into deep thought.

There is even some confusion.

Some of these people in the research institute hated him, and some gloated, but they only had no emotions such as weakness, dodging, and pride.

As long as his perception wasn't deceiving him, then the matter might really have nothing to do with the people at the institute.

But who could it be if it wasn't a research institute, not a prison guard for farm workers, not a prisoner who was cultivating the land?

To say that the only one who hasn't met yet is the instructor Zhou Ji.

But theoretically, the possibility of the other party is really small and almost negligible.

Just when Li Weidong's side was at an impasse.

On the other side, Gong Jiadong found Zhao Haifeng and expressed his opinion.

"Captain, I just asked someone, Comrade Li Weidong has checked everyone, but nothing has been found yet."

"Didn't find it?"

Zhao Haifeng frowned.

He believes in Li Weidong's ability, otherwise he would not directly let the other party be responsible.

But most of the day has passed, and all the people who should be reviewed have been reviewed, but they haven't found it?

"Yes, I asked the prison guard in charge of the record, Li Weidong just called some people in, and then asked a few random words, and then sent the other party away, which is the attitude of censorship? It's just a show, and I don't care at all. ”

Gong Jiadong made a small report, but he didn't have a soft heart.

"Maybe Comrade Weidong has his own considerations, since we have left the matter to him, we should trust our comrades." Zhao Haifeng said.

"Captain, I know I'm a bit of a villain, but don't you think it's weird?"

"Strange?"

"I specifically asked someone to inquire, the last time Li Weidong was investigating Sun Hongmei's matter, he was conscientious, and even went from house to house without sleeping at night, and the inspection was called a careful one.

But what about this time? Just ask a few words of nonsense and send people away, what can you find?

Could it be that he can still see through whether the other party is telling the truth or a lie?

If it were me, I would do it too.

And the reason why he did this, I think there are two possibilities. ”

"Which two?"

Originally, Zhao Haifeng did not suspect Li Weidong, but with Gong Jiadong's words, he couldn't help muttering a little in his heart.

Li Weidong's performance is indeed a little wrong, or it is incomprehensible.

"This first kind is that he already knows who stole it, and now it's just acting, and when you are in a hurry and begging him, he will hand it over."

After listening to Gong Jiadong's analysis, Zhao Haifeng did not immediately express his position, but asked again: "Second?" ”

"The second way I say it, don't be angry, it's not that I have any opinion about Comrade Li Weidong, but what he did, it's too doubtful."

Gong Jiadong said tentatively.

"Even if I say it, I believe that even if Comrade Weidong knew, he would not say anything, after all, everyone is here to recover the stolen gold and jewelry as soon as possible."

"Okay, I think this second possibility, could it be that Comrade Li Weidong is shouting to catch the thief?"

"The thief shouts to catch the thief?"

Zhao Haifeng was stunned, staring sharply at Gong Jiadong.

"Comrade Li Weidong was able to join the party in the firing line, which shows that this comrade can withstand the test, Comrade Gong Jiadong, why do you doubt Comrade Weidong? A reasonable explanation must be given to me today. ”

Zhao Haifeng said harshly, but in the end, he still gave Gong Jiadong a chance to defend himself or explain.
