Chapter 193 The thunder is loud and the rain is small
You must be sure that nothing is wrong, otherwise it would seem like there is much thunder but little rain.
"Hello, I'm the director of the Nanxi City Public Security Bureau. Don't worry, little girl. We're here just to ask you something."
Gu Wan nodded and said, "Hello, I will definitely cooperate with the investigation."
Several people nodded, put away their relaxed expressions, and asked:
"Do you know about the 11,000 kilograms of grain donated by Comrade Gu Weimin?"
Gu Weimin is the name of Gu Wan’s grandfather.
Gu Wan pursed her lips and a look of fear appeared on her face.
"What, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, Comrade Gu, just answer truthfully."
"Will this matter affect my grandfather?" Seeing that others were silent, Gu Wan was frightened and spoke as if she had made up her mind:
"That food has nothing to do with grandpa. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. I just wanted people to think too much, so I asked grandpa to donate it in his name."
"Oh?" Several people looked at each other, and one of them was writing something in a notebook.
"Why are you afraid that people will think too much? How did you get so much food?"
"Grandpa told me to pretend to be poor and not to be too conspicuous. I think it's good to be low-key. If it's up to me, I'm afraid I won't have a peaceful life in the future."
She lowered her head and said, and the others nodded. This was similar to what they had found out. Everyone had also heard that in order to keep a low profile, this girl didn't have any connections at all. She would rather be bullied than show off her wealth.
"Where do you get your food? It's a lot."
"I bought these myself. I met a man before and he said he had a large amount of food. It was hard to sell because of the large quantity. I prefer to eat rice and I am not used to the food here, so I bought them all. Later I met another man and he bought some more and put them all in the warehouse.
That warehouse also belongs to the person who sold me rice.”
The person in the lead also nodded. Although speculation and profiteering are opposed now, the policy has been relaxed a lot, and people basically turn a blind eye to it.
They also didn't expect that Gu Wan was so lucky that she happened to come across it just before the flood, and she dared to buy so much at one time.
It seems that Gu Wan is really not used to living in the village.
The man who had been taking notes with a pen finished writing and nodded to the person next to him. The other man in military uniform spoke up:
"Then may I ask Comrade Gu if he ever bought a pair of bracelets when he bought rice before?"
Even though everyone turned a blind eye to the black market, and this incident accidentally saved so many people, we can't really arrest anyone just because of this.
Just not being able to arrest people is one thing, but that doesn’t mean they can say those two words.
Gu Wan thought for a moment, as if thinking about what they were saying.
"I did buy a pair of bracelets."
The man's eyes lit up, but because of Gu Wan's identity and what she had done, he deliberately slowed down his expression and asked:
"So, where is that thing, did you bring it with you?"
Gu Wan shook her head. The man was startled and almost stood up, but fortunately he was stopped by the person next to him.
"It's not on me, but the police should have collected it for me. It's not easy to take it out, so I put it under the box. I just saw them carrying the box into the car."
What this means is that the thing should be in the box.
The man winked at the other person standing behind him, and that person opened the door and went out.
"Has Comrade Gu ever worn that bracelet?"
"I wore it once, but it was too big, so I didn't wear it again. Besides, it was not easy to wear it outside!"
Everyone was silent, and understood the meaning of her words.
A few people comforted Gu Wan with a few words, and the person who had just left came back in with a large wooden box in his hand.
It's just that the man was so tall that the box didn't seem very big in his hands.
"Comrade Gu, could you please help us get it?"
The man put the box in front of Gu Wan. Gu Wan nodded, stood up and opened the box. Inside were a few clothes, a pair of light blue sandals, a quilt, and two sheets.
Gu Wan rummaged around for a while and pulled out a handkerchief from the bottom.
Everyone else's eyes immediately turned to Gu Wan's hand.
Gu Wan's scalp tingled when she was looked at, and she handed the thing over.
"I thought it was very nice at the time, and I also heard that the man was pitiful, so I spent a lot of money to buy it."
Everyone nodded. They also asked about it and found out that the price was not even mentioned.
"Comrade Gu, can you leave this thing here for us to take a look at first?"
"Of course, if you need it, you can just leave it here. I don't wear it anyway, and it's too big."
Gu Wan waved her hand indifferently. The man noticed Gu Wan's wrist out of the corner of his eye and judged that it was indeed very thin. The table would easily fall off after she put it on.
This may be the reason why she obviously likes it but doesn't wear it after buying it. I hope this thing can make that person tell the truth.
He was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses and thanked him repeatedly.
"Then my grandfather..."
"Don't worry, Comrade Gu is fine. You guys did a great job, but because of the food source problem, there is no reward. However, we will privately give you the money you spent on buying food."
“No need, no need!”
Those people smiled and said nothing. They knew that Gu Wan didn't care about these things, so they didn't say much. Anyway, they would have to give the money when the time came.
Gu Wan is the orphan of a martyr. He used the compensation money to buy food and save so many people. They cannot let the hero suffer.
After several people took their things out, they arranged for Gu Wan to read the transcript just now. After confirming that there were no problems and signing it, they led everyone out:
"There may be some issues here that require Comrade Gu's help, so Comrade Gu may not be able to return for the time being.
But we have dormitories here, and we can arrange one for you to live in. You don’t have to leave the police station for the time being, and you are free to move around as you wish.”
A female police officer kindly guided Gu Wan out and introduced things to her as they walked.
She was not willing to believe what that person said at all. She felt that it was really troublesome to invite Gu Wan just because he had no basis in the words. So she felt very embarrassed and treated Gu Wan even more enthusiastically.
Secondly, Gu Wan was willing to use her own money to buy so much food and donated it all at once without leaving her name. Many people in the police station admired her for being a hero, so they tried their best to make things convenient for her.
Gu Wan thanked her, and the two did not talk about anything else about the matter. They just talked about some interesting things that happened after going to the countryside, and the two had a pretty pleasant chat.
