Chapter 1173
The most important things are often the simplest
Tian Ya didn't think of reminding Yi Zhonghai that if he made another mistake, Yi Zhonghai would definitely not let her off easily.
In fact, Tian Ya didn’t care. At most she would be beaten and scolded.
She was afraid of implicating Cao'er.
So Tian Ya thought about it all night and made up her mind.
She thought about transferring some of the money in Yi Zhonghai's money box.
This is preparation for the worst.
If something happened to Yi Zhonghai, at least she would still have money.
As long as Yi Zhonghai was fine, she could just put it in secretly at night.
This is also the sadness of couples who get married later in life. When disaster strikes, they still think about taking care of themselves first.
Tian Ya was staring at the deposit certificate that Yi Zhonghai had when he went to work at "Sheep". Although she didn't know how much money was in it, she could probably guess roughly.
After all, everyone knows how much Yi Zhonghai's monthly salary is, how much he sends to her, and how much Yi Zhonghai spends. It is estimated that it is definitely more than a thousand.
Tian Ya took out the money box. Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai was not on guard against Tian Ya.
Tian Ya has always been timid and fearful, and has never thought of taking Yi Zhonghai's money box.
So in this regard, Yi Zhonghai is also confident in Tian Ya.
Besides, according to common sense, he was not afraid that Tian Ya would steal his money.
Everyone knew that he would put the money he earned from the store into the box every few weeks and count the money in the box.
If Tian Ya dared to touch the things in his money box, she would face the risk of being driven back to the countryside by Yi Zhonghai.
Why not just live as a city dweller?
Why not do business that can earn a few cents every day?
Don’t you want a life with enough food and drink to raise your children?
……
Tian Ya would never do such a brainless thing.
The padlock was hanging on it, but it was not locked like when Yi Zhonghai just came back from "Sheep".
This is also the reason why Tian Ya took action.
Nowadays, hanging keys on the belt is not a very convenient thing.
If it falls off, you can break the lock and buy a new one, which will cost you several cents! The key is to get an industrial voucher, which is about a few tenths of a piece.
So Yi Zhonghai only carried the key to the store with him and he was unwilling to bring even the key to his home. Anyway, Tian Ya had been going in and out with him since he opened the store, and they were rarely separated.
It’s almost the same these days, with the key tied to a rope and hung by the door when you enter.
If a child needs to carry a key, it will be woven with a red rope and hung on the chest.
They are all afraid of falling!
Tian Ya opened the box, glanced at the neatly arranged small coins, and reached for a black cloth bag on the side.
Her hands were shaking and her head was covered in cold sweat. She was really afraid that Yi Zhonghai would find out later.
Finally, she took the cloth bag in her hand but did not dare to open it. She was afraid that she would not be able to resist the temptation, and she was also afraid that Yi Zhonghai had left some tricks inside.
She just looked around, wondering where to hide the cloth bag.
Finally, she felt that there was no safety anywhere in the house, so she simply put the thing in her arms and held it close to her body until she felt at ease.
Even if something happened to Yi Zhonghai, those people wouldn't be able to search her, right?
As for the possibility of leaving body odor, Tian Ya has no idea about it now.
In her life, she had never been so panicked again except for the day her man died.
Tian Ya hid the cloth bag close to her body, took another look at the hundred-plus coins in the money box, and a look of struggle flashed in her eyes.
Finally, he swallowed his saliva and didn't even dare to touch the money with his fingers. He closed the box and put the box back where it was supposed to be.
Tian Ya also observed it carefully and compared it with the original location in her memory.
The moment she put down the bed sheet, Tian Ya finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She collapsed directly on the bed. At this moment, she was not sure whether she hoped that something would happen to Yi Zhonghai or that Yi Zhonghai would be safe.
As for Yi Zhonghai, he was also anxious.
Although "Brother Tiger" would definitely not come during working hours when there are many pedestrians on the road.
But Yi Zhonghai still looked out from time to time.
Every time he looked around, just like "Brother Tiger" yesterday.
Even the two investigators sitting in a breakfast shop on the corner of the street felt their scalps tingling with fear at Yi Zhonghai's nervousness.
They also didn't know whether Yi Zhonghai had discovered anything.
This area is under heavy guard. According to the report from the people at the steel rolling mill yesterday, that "Brother Tiger" should come here today to deliver the goods to Yi Zhonghai.
Anyone who can become the boss of a small group either has brains or the strongest fist.
So Director Xia arranged several skilled investigators to keep a close eye on both sides of the road.
As long as "Brother Hu" carries things into Yi Zhonghai's store, it's time to close in.
The breakfast shop was closed, so the two detectives ran to another shop and pretended to buy something.
The head of a tea shop recognized them and thoughtfully moved a stool for them to sit at the door, pretending to taste the tea.
These days, when encountering such things, people are very cooperative.
And no one will ask about things that shouldn't be asked.
So the two detectives got by with the water for a while, and it was almost noon when they saw a young man with messy hair, hunched neck, carrying a snakeskin bag, appearing at the intersection along the wall.
He was holding a pair of fire tongs in his hand. If you didn't pay attention, you would think he was a ragpicker.
The young man lowered his head and looked around. At this time, the two detectives also walked into the shop, pretending to discuss business, and successfully avoided close contact with the young man.
Basically, as long as this scene was over and did not arouse the suspicion of "Brother Tiger", the matter was mostly successful.
This was because Xu Damao and his team had made careful preparations in the early stages and figured out that "Brother Hu" was a scrap recycler (an informal worker) at the scrap collection station on the next street. Otherwise, he would have been easily overlooked.
Investigating petty thefts like this is easy but also troublesome.
No matter which office the staff is in, they all know who is committing petty theft within their jurisdiction.
But unless they are caught in the act, they will definitely deny it.
It is impossible for the comrades in the institute to use harsh measures against these people for trivial matters.
They are all acquaintances, and they will see each other every day. Besides, petty thefts are rarely committed by people who steal from their own family.
But Xu Damao discovered Yi Zhonghai first, and then pushed forward the stolen goods sales channel, which made it seem easy.
On the contrary, it is the stage of closing the net that looks very lively, but in fact everything is well prepared.
Just like now, the two detectives waited until "Brother Tiger" passed by the door of the tea shop and did not rush out.
Instead, he muttered something to the salesperson.
The salesman picked up the dirty water for cleaning the table, paused for a moment, and said to the passers-by, "Make way, dirty water!"
With a "splash", a basin of dirty water was poured all over the road.
In just this moment, the salesperson had already observed whether "Brother Tiger" was looking behind him.
