Chapter 920 Dark under the lamp
To be honest, if this person hadn't reminded them, everyone, including Wang An, would have forgotten about the IOU long ago.
The main thing is that the things in these two rooms are really too stimulating.
Maybe everyone is still thinking about the box of gold and the nugget of gold.
That's money! A huge amount of money!
Besides, IOUs are of no use to anyone. Who would want to find one?
However, although the person asking the question was a drunk criminal, the issue of the IOUs should indeed be taken seriously. After all, those IOUs are equivalent to evidence. Many people are involved and clues can definitely be found from the IOUs.
Subconsciously, Sun Nian asked Captain Zhang and Captain Zhou:
"Where do you think those IOUs were hidden?"
At this time, Captain Zhou and Captain Zhang were not sure what they were thinking. So when they heard Sun Nian's question, they were stunned for a moment. After they reacted, Captain Zhang said:
"I've looked everywhere I could, and I can't think of where the IOUs could be hidden."
After Captain Zhang finished speaking, Captain Zhou immediately said:
"In their line of work, IOUs should be kept somewhere where they can be accessed at any time, but we searched through everything in the room and still couldn't find it. This is really not easy to guess."
At this moment, Wang An suddenly remembered a detail, that is, there was a wall clock on the wall of the room where Wei Cheng and others were beaten to death.
This wall clock looks inconspicuous and is almost the same as the ordinary wall clocks sold in the supply and marketing cooperatives.
Thinking of the small box containing the gold nugget, Wang An suddenly remembered the three words "darkness under the lamp".
Because whether it is the clay statue or the wall clock, they were placed by Wei Cheng in a very conspicuous place, and can be seen as soon as you enter the door.
Therefore, perhaps everyone who walks into the house will subconsciously ignore it, and will subconsciously think that it is just an ordinary object and there is nothing to pay attention to.
Thinking of this, Wang An said to Sun Nian:
"Sister Nian, do you think that the wall clock in the room is just like that clay statue? Is there something else going on inside?"
After hearing Wang An's words, not only Sun Nian was stunned, but even the two squadron leaders and several brothers in hats who were present were also stunned.
Then, Sun Nian said with a smile:
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that? Hahahaha"
As he spoke, Sun Nian took the lead and walked into the house.
Sure enough, when a brother in a hat stood on a stool and took down the wall clock, a small hole about 20 cm deep, 20 cm high and 20 cm wide appeared on the wall behind the clock.
And in this small hole, there was a small wooden box.
This small wooden box looks very similar to the previous two, and even the wood used is the same, both of which are the famous local Huangbo wood.
It is obvious that this box and the previous two boxes were made by the same carpenter.
Moreover, this small box was polished very brightly due to frequent use. Seeing this small box, Captain Zhou couldn't help but curl his lips and said:
"Wei Cheng even nicknamed himself Pixiu. I think he should be called Greyhound. His ability to hide things is really amazing."
Greyhounds, also known as squirrels, have a passion for hiding food, such as pine nuts, pecans, hazelnuts, etc. They hide them in very secretive ways. Many times, because they have hidden so much, even they forget about it.
Hearing Captain Zhou's words, everyone in the room couldn't help but laugh.
When Sun Nian opened the box, he found not only a thick stack of IOUs and a dozen brand new big unity notes, but also two small notebooks made of white paper.
Sun Nian picked up one of the notebooks and opened it to take a look. Sun Nian, who was originally smiling because of Captain Zhou's words, gradually froze his expression, and even his two very beautiful eyebrows were gradually tightly frowned together.
After picking up another book and flipping through it a few more times, Sun Nian's face became gloomy.
It can be seen that the contents recorded in these two notebooks are absolutely shocking.
After briefly looking through them a few more times, Sun Nian put the IOUs and the two small notebooks back into the small box. She did not ask anyone around her to seal it, but simply tucked the box under her armpit.
I don’t know what is recorded in those two notebooks that made Sun Nian pay so much attention to them.
However, whether it was Captain Zhang or Captain Zhou, or Wang An or Wang Li, none of them were curious enough to ask, but turned their heads away as if they did not notice Sun Nian's expression.
As I said, there are some things that it is better not to know. Many things are not worth asking about blindly. It is better not to know than to know.
After Sun Nian put the small box under his armpit, he turned to Captain Zhou and Captain Zhang and said:
"Captain Zhang, Captain Zhou, you two will send half of your squadrons to me. They and I will escort those hooligans outside back to Juli. Then you two will take the rest of the people and search the entire yard carefully to see if there is anything left out."
Upon hearing this, Captain Zhang and Captain Zhou answered almost at the same time:
"Yes, Captain Sun."
Sun Nian nodded and turned to walk outside.
Wang An and Wang Li naturally followed Sun Nian. Wang An took a few quick steps and asked Sun Nian:
"Sister Nian, if there's nothing else for us to do, we can just go home, right?"
Wang An and Wang Li are just militiamen. They should not be involved in such a big case. However, as the initiator of the destruction of Wei Cheng's team and Zhang Shuya's sworn brother, Wang An had the opportunity to participate in this incident.
But now, Wei Cheng and the four so-called sharpshooters are all dead, and those who should be arrested have also been arrested. The key point is that Zhang Shuya and their unit have increased a lot of revenue, so Wang An feels that he and Wang Li are of no use.
Unexpectedly, Sun Nian said without even turning his head:
"Lao Wu, go home. Xiao An, you have to ride your sidecar to take me back to the county. At noon, your sister said she has arranged a non-staff job for you and asked you to go to Juli to get your documents."
When Wang An heard this, he was completely confused. He had no idea what Zhang Shuya was thinking. Why would she give him such a job?
To put it nicely, they are called non-staff personnel, but to put it bluntly, they are just temporary workers.
With Wang An's current net worth and wealth, would he be short of a job as a temporary worker?
So this whole job is really useless to Wang An.
