"I'll go to Yongfu Village quietly. No matter how much I can get, it's better than thinking about it at home."

Shu Ping nodded. Seeing him take the initiative in handling the matter, she was still very touched and felt that this cousin of hers was a good person.

Not to mention cousins, some brothers may not be so good to their own sisters. This can be regarded as satisfying her wish of having a brother since childhood.

"Brother, thank you. I don't have to worry about anything with you around. It's like you're there to help me when the sky falls."

This sudden compliment made Shu Jun laugh, and he touched her head lovingly.

"Silly girl, why are you thanking me when we’re family? If you had told me this earlier, would I have let Jiang Hai be so proud until now? I would have beaten him so hard that he couldn't get out of bed."

But now, Jiang Hai had done so many evil things that it wasn’t enough to just beat him up.

These villains who repaid kindness with enmity must be punished as they deserved. His uncle was so good to them when he was alive, but it seemed like he raised a group of wolves and tigers. He deceived an orphan girl who lost her parents with such a sinister intention. He wasn’t worthy of being a human being.

Uncle Li didn't find any other suitable job after leaving the food factory. In addition to farm work in the fields, he also raised a few pigs at home, which were sold at the end of the year. It was just as good as working in the canteen.

When Shu Jun arrived, he was cutting pig grass in the yard. When he saw Shu Jun, Uncle Li didn't look surprised, as if he had a premonition that someone would come.

When Shu Jun asked, Uncle Li picked up a match, lit the pipe, took a long puff, and slowly exhaled white smoke. 　　

"There are some things I should have said earlier, just thinking about it makes me uncomfortable. Jiang Hai’s an ungrateful guy. He hooked up with Gu Zhihong when Old Shu was here, but it was just a small skirmish at that time. Old Shu knew it in his heart and didn't care. He said, 'There are no fish in freshwater'. As long as you do your job well, you can get some rewards. Deductions are futile. Who knew that he would suddenly disappear like this? The factory fell into Jiang Hai's hands like a mouse in a rice jar. Old Shu spent a lot of money buying machines before, but he definitely didn't owe any debts. He always said that he would do as much as he could, and he just wanted the word ‘stability’. I don't believe that someone came to collect debts. Gu Zhihong is in charge of the accounts. It would take him only a few minutes to make false accounts. But I know it's useless. There’s no evidence. Everyone thinks Jiang Hai is a good person. If I stand up, I'm afraid that I won't get good results and even get into trouble. "

Uncle Li's concerns were natural. Shu Jun didn't come here today to accuse anyone. After listening, he only asked the questions he wanted to know the most, "Then do you know who in the factory 'defected' to Jiang Hai? Gu Zhihong made false accounts, but where is the real account book? Where did Jiang Hai find those people who came to collect the debts? "

It is only natural to pay back debts, but debts cannot be owed simply by saying so. There must be real evidence. Now that Shu Hemin was gone, and the other party had identified Shu Hemin as the borrower, so was there an IOU? Was there a signature from Shu Hemin himself on the IOU? If there was no contract or IOU, and they wanted to make trouble, then they could just go to court.

Shu Jun wasn't an ignorant country bumpkin. One of his classmates' fathers worked in the procuratorate, and they usually had a good relationship. This time, he planned to ask the other party for help, and with the friendship of more than three years as classmates, he wouldn't refuse.

"The driver Shi Lei and Wu Peng from the workshop, they are so close to Jiang Hai that they’re like brothers. The others are small workers with no real power, and Jiang Hai doesn't think highly of them. Regarding the account book, I don't know about that, and I don't understand it. As for those debt collectors, there is one I know. He used to be a waiter in a noodle restaurant in town. I don't know if he is still working there. I don't know the others."

Shu Jun had his own judgment on what Uncle Li said, and it should be true. Jiang He won't look for acquaintances to handle the case, but if he could find one of them, he could find the others. Since he worked as a waiter in a noodle shop, at least there were clues.

"Thank you, Uncle Li. The matter hasn’t been resolved yet. I won't say anything else. Don't mention my visit to others. When there is a result in the end, my sister and I will definitely come to your house to express our gratitude."

Uncle Li waved his hand, "Hey, what’re you thanking me for? It's not worth a word of thanks. Just don't blame me for hiding it. The help I can give is only a little, but I’ll be able to sleep more peacefully at night."

"Let’s take it one step at a time. Many things are beyond our control. We still understand this principle. You have helped us a lot. "

Shu Jun got on his bike and left. Uncle Li stood by the road and watched for a long time. He couldn't help but worry about them. In his heart, he hoped that they could "snatch" the factory back. As long as they had a conscience, they would always hope that good would be rewarded with good, evil would be punished with evil, and evil would not prevail over justice!

After Shu Jun returned, he went directly to Shu Ping's house and repeated Uncle Li's words.

"It's too late today. I'll go to the town to inquire about that guy tomorrow."

Shu Ping had a different opinion on this. "Will we alert the snake if we ask around all of a sudden?"

Shu Jun frowned. "It's possible, but I can't think of any other way for the time being."

Shu Ping immediately understood that her cousin was very smart, but he was a gentleman and solved things seriously. In fact, finding that guy would not solve any of their problems.

Both of them were students, without money, power, or influence, and Jiang Hai was the nominal director of the food factory. He had been in the local area for so many years. With various interests connected, would the other party tell them the truth? The answer was obvious.

So Shu Ping made a suggestion, "Why don't we wait until dark and go to the factory to see if we can find any useful evidence."

She found the key that Shu Hemin had left behind at home, and she was betting that Jiang Hai would not think of changing the lock.

Shu Jun was stunned for a long time before saying, "There’s a gatekeeper guarding the factory at night."

Shu Ping had already prepared for this, "The gatekeeper is so old, his alertness will not be very high. I read in the newspaper that people sleep the deepest in the early morning, so no one should notice me if I climb over the wall."

Shu Ping liked to make quick decisions. If she couldn't find evidence, she would think of other ways. There was no need to talk about martial ethics with people like Jiang Hai.

Shu Jun felt that he didn't understand his sister anymore as she was too bold, but he also knew that the matter was urgent, and he couldn't think of a better way, so he had to agree.

He did it right away. Shu Jun found an excuse with his parents to spend the night at a friend's house. He accompanied Shu Ping until midnight, and the two of them quietly went to the food factory. There were many people in the village who raised dogs and Shu Ping was afraid of disturbing them, so she specially cooked a pot of meat bones, which played a big role.

The wall of the food factory was more than 1.6 meters high. Shu Ping stood by the wall, and it was just up to her head. Shu Jun first observed the surroundings, found a place with stones, and picked up Shu Ping first. He let her climb up to the top of the wall, and then he rushed and jumped up, using the support of his arms to successfully climb over. After jumping off the wall, both of them were a little out of breath.

The brother and sister knew the layout of the food factory too well, so they wouldn't get lost in the dark. They first went to Jiang Hai's office, which was where Shu Hemin used to work. Shu Ping took out the key and looked calm, but she was actually very nervous. The short second was infinitely stretched. When she heard a "click", she breathed a sigh of relief.

After entering, Shu Ping went straight to the desk, an old-fashioned mahogany desk with a total of nine drawers in the middle of the left and right. The lock on the large drawer in the middle was built-in, and there was another drawer on the left that was locked with another lock. The brother and sister looked at each other and chose their targets in these two drawers.

"The desk hasn't been changed. I don't know if I can find the right key."

Shu Jun asked her to try the big drawer, and he took a screwdriver to pry open the lock of the left drawer. The process was to unscrew the screws and then put them back on intact, so that if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't notice the changes on the drawer.

The brother and sister worked hard with flashlights, but unfortunately Shu Ping tried all possible keys and none of them worked. It should be that the drawer was originally locked, and they didn't have the key, so someone later changed the lock.

"No? Then let's change it, this is easy to do."

After saying that, the brother and sister changed positions, and Shu Jun took out a thin wire from his pocket.

He studied mechanical engineering in college, and this major naturally didn't teach lock picking, but he could apply various mechanical parts to each other. Relying on his strong logical analysis ability, he calmly tried a little bit at a time and soon mastered the trick. Soon, Shu Ping's side was pried open. His side was also fixed, and it took only ten minutes.

"Let's check this big drawer first."

Shu Ping illuminated, and Shu Jun flipped through the drawer. There were contracts, several stacks of hundred-yuan bills, and Jiang Hai's ID card and official seal. Shu Ping put the official seal into her bag without hesitation.

"Look at this, is it an IOU?"

Shu Jun found several handwritten IOUs from a cowhide envelope. The handwriting was different, and Shu Hemin's personal seal was stamped below the notes.

In addition to the irregular format, these IOUs could not prove that they were related to Shu Hemin. After all, he was no longer alive. Personal seals were different from signatures or handprints written in handwriting, and they could be forged.

"Completely fake."

Shu Ping was speechless. She stuffed the fake IOU back into the cowhide envelope and put it away. Remembering that the original owner really believed such a clumsy lie, she couldn't even feel sympathy.

People couldn't be so simple in this world. At least learn some social common sense. How could you believe everything someone says?

Then, the brother and sister found important documents such as business licenses and tax registration certificates in another drawer, and they reaped a lot of rewards.

After restoring the pried lock to its original state, the two went to Gu Zhihong's office. This time, they not only found the original account book, but also a lot of evidence that Jiang Hai abused his power and embezzled the assets of the food factory. These were all put together by Gu Zhihong secretly, probably because he was afraid that the truth would be revealed one day. He was leaving himself a backup plan.

After returning home, Shu Ping sorted out all the things and handed them over to Shu Jun. First, she was afraid that Jiang Hai would come to her house regardless of the consequences after finding some documents missing, so it wasn’t safe to leave them with her. Second, these things would be taken to the provincial capital by Shu Jun to show to the father of his college classmate. Shu Ping was ready to take legal action to make Jiang Hai and Gu Zhihong receive the punishment they deserved.

As for the villain Chen Yibin, there was no conclusive evidence of his crime. If he was accused of conspiring with Jiang Hai to deceive Shu Ping's feelings, it would damage Shu Ping's reputation.

Even if the original owner didn’t suffer any loss from Chen Yibin, others wouldn’t think so. Society was always less tolerant of women than men.

Another thing was that no matter what benefits Jiang Hai promised Chen Yibin, that was a deal between him and Jiang Hai. She believed Chen Yibin wouldn’t make a fuss when Jiang Hai got into trouble.

Shu Ping thought that as long as Chen Yibin didn’t continue to court death, she would let him go for now. She was too lazy to tarnish her reputation for him. She would feel disgusted if their names appeared together in other people's mouths. She would find an opportunity to return the favor and avenge the original owner in the future.
