Chapter 1122 The Sky Has Fallen Over Jia Zhangshi

Is he about to die?

The head of the police officers almost laughed out of anger at Jia Zhangshi's words.

Just now, the entire corridor was filled with Jia Zhangshi's cursing and swearing. With such a loud voice arguing with the nurses, how could she possibly die so easily?

Moreover, if Jia Zhangshi's condition were truly that serious, the hospital would have already moved her to the emergency room.

"Prescribe her some painkillers."

Seeing that Jia Zhangshi's condition was not serious, the police gave her two painkillers and then took her back to the courtyard house.

This infuriated Jia Zhangshi, who went to the hospital with great difficulty, but ended up being brought back after receiving no treatment.

I lost a lot of money on the tricycle ride.

"I can't live anymore, I'm in so much pain I might as well die. Old Jia, how are you doing over there? If it gets too much, I'll pack up and come find you!"

Throughout the journey, Jia Zhangshi's mouth never stopped. She knew that cursing the police would be punished, so she simply chatted with Old Jia in a rambling manner.

"Stop acting like you're going to die. Did you run this house over?"

They took him back to the backyard, and the police pointed to Chen Jun's messy room and asked.

Jia Zhangshi pursed her lips, instinctively wanting to deny it, but she had just been carried out by the middle-aged women present, so lying was obviously unlikely.

"hold head high!"

"Okay, since you did it, then you stole the five hundred yuan that Chen Jun lost and the calligraphy, right?" The police officer held a small notebook in his hand, asking questions and taking notes at the same time.

"No, wait a minute, what five hundred yuan?"

Jia Zhangshi didn't understand what was going on.

I went into Chen Jun's room and only ate meat buns and fruit. I didn't see a single penny!

“You stole five hundred yuan from the Chen family. It has already been found in your cabinet. The money has a tag that says Yong'an Hall. It was money Chen Jun earned from selling ginseng.”

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Jia Zhangshi admitted to searching the Chen family's house, but denied stealing any money!

Moreover, it was five hundred yuan. Even if she saw five hundred yuan when she was rummaging through drawers and cabinets in the morning, she only dared to quietly take out a few bills. She wouldn't dare to take all five hundred at once!

That's five hundred yuan! That's a huge amount stolen. He might not just end up in jail; he could be sent straight to a farm for labor reform.

Thinking back to her days of labor reform on the farm, Jia Zhangshi felt extremely distressed.

Last time, it took so much effort to barely gain a foothold, but so much time has passed, and the previous group of people have already finished their labor reform. Going back in would definitely mean starting all over again.

That awful place, Jia Zhangshi never wants to go back to it again in her life.

"I was so hungry and there was nothing to eat at home, so I went to his house and ate a few steamed buns, but I swear I absolutely did not steal any money!" Jia Zhangshi felt more wronged than Dou E.

"Then why were you ransacking the place?" The police officer clearly believed the situation at the scene more.

The cabinets and cupboards inside the room showed signs of being opened, and some clothes were even thrown on the floor.

Are you looking for something?

You're kidding me!

"I......"

Jia Zhangshi was speechless, unsure how to explain.

Seeing this, Liu Haizhong walked over with his hands behind his back: "Jia Zhangshi, why did you steal that calligraphy from Chen Jun's house? Was it out of revenge, or did you want to sell it for money?"

Although this calligraphy hangs in Chen Jun's home, Liu Haizhong considers it an honor for the entire courtyard.

But that damned Jia Zhangshi dared to steal words; she should be thrown into the jail.

"Liu Haizhong, what does this have to do with you?" Jia Zhangshi didn't have time to deal with Liu Haizhong at the moment, and turned to the police, saying, "I'll confess, I'll confess everything!"

“A few days ago, Chen Jun was taken to the security department, so when I came out yesterday, I wanted to play a joke on him. I hid the calligraphy in his house. But let me make it clear beforehand that I didn’t steal the calligraphy; I just hid it in Chen Jun’s room.”

"So many people were looking for that calligraphy yesterday, and I felt really bad about it when I went to bed last night. So I thought I'd take it out today and hang it back on the wall, but who would have thought it would be gone? So I searched the whole house, but I couldn't find it, and I even tripped and fell."

In order to clear her name of stealing money, Jia Zhangshi was forced to confess, but all of her words were embellished in an attempt to lessen her guilt.

But after hearing her explanation, the policeman frowned even more, and his eyes were filled with speechlessness as he looked at Jia Zhangshi.

Is it possible to sneak in, pick locks, and steal things just as a joke?

It might fool a three-year-old.

“Yesterday, Jia Zhangshi laughed so wildly, I don’t think she was joking.”

"It's definitely not a joke. She was there to steal it, and she didn't tell the truth at all. She clearly hid the calligraphy in the cabinet, and everyone saw it just now."

“That’s right, comrade, don’t listen to her nonsense. A few of us just saw with our own eyes that the money and the calligraphy were in the Jia family’s cabinet.”

"I can testify!"

"I can testify as well!"

The older women were just watching the show, but Jia Zhangshi's explanation was too outrageous, saying that the words had always been in Chen Jun's house.

If they don't explain, the police will think they're lying.

“That’s right, the words and money were found in the Jia family’s cabinet. I, the steward, can testify to that.” Liu Haizhong cleared his throat and said seriously.

Upon hearing this, the police officer looked at Jia Zhangshi and said, "So many people can be witnesses, what else do you have to say?"

Explanation?

What's there to explain?!

Jia Zhangshi immediately lost her temper.

She never expected that these women in the courtyard, who only gathered together to chat about everyday matters, would actually unite to slander her!

"You bunch of damned bastards, I've never offended you, have I? Why are you framing me for stealing?" Jia Zhangshi immediately launched into a tirade.

In her opinion, her aunt and the others were not just accusing her of stealing.

This is an attempt to kill her!

With so many people testifying, even if I talked myself hoarse, the police wouldn't believe me.

An older woman replied unhappily, "Jia Zhangshi, watch your mouth! Who falsely accused you of stealing? You did all these shady things yourself, and now you don't want the neighbors to talk about it?"

"What did I do? I didn't steal any money!"

Madam Jia was extremely agitated. She turned to Qin Huairu and shouted, "Qin Huairu, you must testify for me! I didn't steal Chen Jun's money, nor did I bring that calligraphy home!"

Others may not know, but Qin Huairu certainly does!

She opened the closet to put out clothes before going to bed yesterday. If there were money and words inside, Qin Huairu couldn't possibly have missed it.

But to Jia Zhangshi's dismay, Qin Huairu did not try to explain, but instead shook her head and said, "Mom, we did see that the money and the inscription were taken out of our cabinet."

"You...you shouldn't have done this!"

After saying that, Qin Huairu pursed her lips, feeling a little sad. This time she was really sad because if Jia Zhangshi went in, there would be no one in the family to earn money.
