Siheyuan: Joined the Intelligence Department, my father is a national level

Chapter 358 Maintenance

There was no panic or tension in Li Youquan's tone, only a kind of detached calmness and composure.

After all, in his opinion, this matter had nothing to do with him.

He was just fulfilling his duties and obligations, and there was no need to waste too much thought and energy on it.

"Does anyone still have any doubts now? Or does anyone firmly believe that he is hiding something from what he just said and thinks he is lying?"

As soon as Li Youquan finished speaking, the members of the security department almost unanimously turned their eyes to the other residents present.

There was both questioning and a hint of scrutiny in their eyes.

Although everyone present was inclined to believe in Li Youquan's innocence deep down in their hearts, they believed that he would never do such a terrible thing.

However, due to their duties, they still have to conduct routine inquiries to demonstrate fairness and rigor.

This subtle "face project" is both a respect for the system and a comfort to the residents.

"No, no! I just happened to come out of the house when Youquan came out, and we bumped into each other on the road. I can testify to this!"

An enthusiastic aunt quickly stepped forward, her tone firm and sincere.

After saying this, he did not forget to cast a kind look towards Li Youquan, as if giving him silent support in his own way.

"Yes, we have no doubts. Youquan is usually an honest kid, and he always speaks and acts frankly. How could he set a fire? This must be a misunderstanding!"

Other residents also echoed this, and their words were full of trust and protection for Li Youquan.

It seemed as if at this moment, they had become a united whole, jointly resisting the outside world's false accusations against Li Youquan.

Faced with this scene, Yi Zhonghai's face instantly turned gloomy.

He originally planned to take this opportunity to guide public opinion so as to better implement his plan, but he did not expect that these residents would stand so firmly on Li Youquan's side.

As a victim, it is easy to arouse everyone's sympathy.

But at this moment, after realizing everyone's attitude, he felt like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head, and his heart was filled with resentment and unwillingness.

What made him even more embarrassed was that if he stood up and questioned Li Youquan again at this time, he would undoubtedly be contradicting himself in public.

That would clearly tell everyone that you are deliberately finding fault and plotting against others.

Yi Zhonghai could not accept such consequences in any way.

Therefore, he could only suppress the anger and resentment in his heart and watch Li Youquan gradually go away surrounded by the crowd.

He himself was like a lone wolf isolated and could only endure the bitterness and humiliation of failure alone.

Feeling the hostile and unwilling gaze behind him, Li Youquan couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

He did not stop to respond or provoke Yi Zhonghai, but just silently quickened his pace.

He seemed to be telling everyone with his actions that the truth may be late, but it will never be absent.

And he himself has already prepared for all challenges.

"Okay, neighbors, we will continue the investigation. Please understand that we should come early and finish early so that everyone can go home to have breakfast and go to work with peace of mind. We are also considering everyone's safety and hope that everyone can actively cooperate."

When the security staff saw that Li Youquanjiao had left the scene, their expressions changed. Their previous patience and kindness disappeared in an instant, replaced by obvious impatience.

They had stern faces and seemed to be troubled by the scene before them.

Although the residents present had many complaints in their hearts, no one dared to speak out easily in the face of such a situation.

Everyone looked at each other, and although they were dissatisfied, they could only endure it silently.

"Our family comes first!"

An anxious voice broke the silence, and soon others echoed it.

"Yes, our family will come first, we have to rush to send the children to school!"

"Don't push, don't push, our family has already prepared everything, we should go first!"

No one wanted to waste time, so they all rushed forward, and the scene became chaotic for a while.

At this moment, Director Wang and several staff members hurried forward and tried to maintain order at the scene.

She looked at the mess in front of her and couldn't help feeling powerless.

She wanted to just quit her job, but reason told her that as the director of the neighborhood office, she had to step up and solve the problem.

"Everyone please calm down and stop crowding!"

Director Wang raised his voice, trying to calm everyone down.

"Please line up in order and come one by one. As long as everyone actively cooperates with our work, it won't take too much time. But if everyone continues to be so chaotic, it will only make things worse!"

Under Director Wang's persuasion, many residents began to calm down and line up as she requested.

In the following period, Director Wang and the staff conducted interrogations and investigations one family at a time.

In order to clear themselves of suspicion, the residents actively cooperated in answering questions and testifying to each other.

Although the entire investigation process took a long time, it eventually went smoothly.

I asked people around me, but still didn't get any useful clues or results.

As time went on, the security staff gradually lost their patience and began to show impatience on their faces.

They also seemed to be wondering why this seemingly simple matter was so difficult. They had already asked so many people, but still could not find any loopholes or clues.

"Is there anyone else in the courtyard who hasn't come out yet?"

A staff member of the Security Department couldn't help but ask Director Wang next to him while flipping through the documents in his hand.

There was a hint of anxiety and helplessness in his voice, as if he had already felt deeply powerless about the matter.

Upon hearing this, Director Wang frowned tightly.

She understood the concerns and anxieties of the security staff, and was fully aware of the seriousness of the matter.

So she quickly took out a list from her pocket and began to look through it carefully.

While checking the list, Director Wang's brows furrowed more and more, as if he had encountered some difficult problem.

Suddenly, her gaze stopped on the name "Qin Huairu", and a hint of surprise and confusion flashed in her eyes.

She looked up at the other neighbors who were still standing nearby. These people didn't have jobs, so they stayed to watch the fun.

"Has Qin Huairu from your courtyard not come out yet?"

Director Wang asked tentatively.
