Chapter 1738 Solid Evidence
The neighbors all opened their doors and came out to watch the commotion. Jin Yao sat at the door with loads of snacks to watch the drama unfold. She was just short of buying some seeds to share with everyone! Miao Le had not been nice to her all this while. She wanted everyone to laugh at their family!
"Hey! Come and take a look! What's happening to their family!" Jin Yao shouted loudly.
"I always say that Miao Le is not a good person! None of you believe me. Look, she's been reported now!"
"How embarrassing! How can Tian Jun have such a family? It's so pitiful for Zhuang Zhuang to have such an aunt."
"Which family doesn't have problems? Everyone has many poor relatives in the family. Which family doesn't face any difficulties? How can they think that only their family is pitiful? No matter how difficult it has been for our family, nothing like this has ever happened to us!"
"You're right!"
"Look at what's going on! We must close our doors and windows properly, lest Miao Le enters our house to steal our things in the future!"
"Which family did she steal from? How much did she steal?"
"I don't know! Continue watching!"
Everyone started talking at once. There were all kinds of comments and speculations, but most of them were willing to believe that Miao Le had stolen Qiao Mei's things. Who did not like to watch drama?
Qiao Mei was the wife of the future chief, so everyone wanted to be nice to her and flatter her. All the men always reminded their wives not to offend Qiao Mei. They did not expect that there would be someone who did not listen to this advice.
Tian Jun still did not allow Six and the others to start the search. Six really had no choice but to point at the bedroom door and said, "How about this, can you ask her to come out and talk to us? We have to get our job done. Otherwise, Brother Zhao Wu will definitely beat me up when we get back."
Tian Jun had no choice but to nod. He went into the room and asked Miao Le to come out. Miao Le gripped the waistband of her pants tightly and refused to go out. In the end, Tian Jun had to drag her out.
"Sister, don't be nervous. We just want to ask a few questions. After that, we'll leave. You just have to answer truthfully. If you lie, you'll have to go to the small black room," Six said.
Miao Le nodded in a panic. She looked askance at Six and did not dare to look at Tian Jun. She trembled uncontrollably and the jewelry in her pocket made soft clinking sounds. Six was a scout and his ears were very sharp, but he did not expose Miao Le yet. He was a man and could not reach into a woman's pocket to search it. It would be disastrous if Miao Le reported him for taking liberties with her.
"Where did you go today?" Six asked.
"I… I… I…" Miao Le repeated the word "I" several times like a tape player that was stuck. She could not say anything else.
"Say it!" Tian Jun said agitatedly.
"I went to Qiao Mei's house for a visit today," Miao Le said fearfully.
"Why did you go there! Didn't I say that you're not allowed to go to their house again? Why did you go!" Tian Jun looked at Miao Le in disbelief.
Miao Le was so frightened that she fell to the floor and all the things in her pocket dropped out. These jewelry were definitely not things that the women from the military family compound could afford. Only Qiao Mei was rich enough to buy such things.
Jin Yao immediately stood up and looked into the house. She pointed at the jewelry on the ground and shouted, "Oh my! So many pieces of jewelry! She must have stolen them! Miao Le is a thief!"
"Oh my goodness, it's really her!"
"A person of such bad character doesn't deserve to stay in our military family compound!"
"I had lost something at home before. Do you think it was Miao Le who took it?"
"That's hard to say! We should all go home today to see if anything has gone missing!"
Everyone talked loudly outside and Six did not stop them. He was here today to help Qiao Mei with her grievance and also to act on behalf of everyone.
Six had disliked Tian Jun for a long time. It was one thing for Tian Jun to repeatedly reject everyone's good intentions with a cold expression and not appreciate their kindness. The thing was that since Tian Jun felt that everyone only helped him out of charity and pity for him, he also gave everyone a bad attitude. Whoever helped him was like an enemy who had killed his father and would definitely get cold treatment from him.
"Brother Tian, the evidence is all here. There's nothing else for us to ask. We have to take the things and bring your sister with us," Six said.
