"What?" Aunt Zhao was also stunned, this time she met a tough guy.
"Aunt Zhao." "If I were you," she said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "I would try to find a way to return what I stole before the police came. Otherwise …" I will definitely send you in for a prison meal! " Ilan narrowed his eyes and his gaze turned cold.
"I... I don't understand what you're saying! " Aunt Zhao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and retreated a few steps.
"You don't understand? That's for the best. " Ilan took a few steps back and smiled as well. "Then sit here. When the police arrive, they might be able to use you as a witness. If you're lucky, you should be able to get some physical evidence as well …"
"You!" Aunt Zhao gritted her teeth: "I forbid you to call the police!"
"Why!" "Hmph." Iren let out a cold snort.
"With …" Aunt Zhao clenched her fists, but couldn't figure out why. She turned to look at Wang Xiaoman, "Xiaoman, when you and your mother were at a dead end, it was me and your Uncle Zhao who took you in, right? After all these years where the price of other houses have gone up, have I ever raised your prices by a single cent? "
"Screech!" Is this playing a love card again? " "Aren't you good when you came here?"
"Anyway, I can't!" Aunt Zhao clenched her teeth and said, "If I called the police, wouldn't everyone know that my house was stolen?" At that time, who would still want to rent it? "
"Can't you just change it to a better lock?" Ilan pursed his lips.
"What do you know?" Knowing that Yi Lanyou is the Eldest Miss of the Yi family, Auntie Zhao did not dare to say anymore harsh words. She only looked at Wang Xiaoman, trying hard not to cry, "Xiao Man, can't you just treat it as helping Aunt Zhao? Aunt Zhao's mouth isn't good for Aunt Zhao to know, but Aunt Zhao is not bad to you two! "
"This …" Wang Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, as she had no idea what to do.
"You'd better go back and prepare." She raised her hand and looked at her fingernails. She looked casual and said, "Actually, I called the police before you came. Are you coming soon?"
"You!" Aunt Zhao's face turned red: "You called?"
"Yeah." "Every second you waste right now is a free time that you will cherish more in the future."
"You! You just wait! " Aunt Zhao's expression immediately changed and she rushed outside.
"Bye bye." Ilan waved his hand with a smile.
With a "peng," the pitiful wooden door slammed shut. The cold wind blowing towards them gave them a shock.
"Hmph." Yi Lan snorted coldly and curled her lips. This Aunt Zhao was really cunning.
"You You, did we call the police wrong?" Wang Xiaoman panicked and asked, "How about this …" "That's not good …"
"What's wrong with that?" Elantris looked up coldly. Aunt Zhao stealing her tenant as the landlady was already an act of moral ruin. She didn't even leave a chance for them to live and stole the empty house of the mother and daughter. She didn't even let go of the heating device that cost several tens of dollars. It was completely heartless.
Not long after, two policemen came over to check out the situation. After asking for a general idea, the two of them walked out.
Not even five minutes after the two of them left, Aunt Zhao returned with bags and bags of stuff, and also that heater: "This, this is what I begged others to get back for you. I'm warning you, if the police come, don't spout nonsense." Just say it's a misunderstanding. Say it's you two kids making a mistake, do you hear me?! "
"Haha." Ilan smiled. "Xiaoman, go check if there is anything else you need."
"Right." Wang Xiaoman nodded and went forward to flip through it, "There's also my mom's necklace and the 2000 yuan that my mom saved up."
"Where are the items?" Ilan asked.
"I don't know, that's all." As for the necklace, she definitely wouldn't return it: "I'm warning you guys, the other person has quite a strong background. You guys don't need to create trouble for yourselves, if you really make people anxious, then they'll block you guys at school!" No one will be able to protect you! "
"Aunt Zhao, you're very familiar with them, right?" Ilan smiled.
"Not familiar." Aunt Zhao raised her chin. "But there's always a bit of a relationship. I'm telling you, I'm the one who asked for some things in return. Don't be so shameless. If I really infuriate them, they'll definitely …" Aunt Zhao drew a thumb across her neck: "Wang Xiaoman, even if you aren't worried about yourself, you still have to think for your mom, right?"
"…" Wang Xiaoman shivered and nodded. The thing had already come back and was written as such. She didn't want to pursue the matter any further.
Seeing that she had intimidated Wang Xiaoman, Aunt Zhao's expression relaxed a lot: "Then I'm going."
Aunt Zhao turned around and was about to take a step forward. "I'm afraid you won't be able to get away."
"Eh?" Aunt Zhao stared blankly for a moment before turning her head to look at Ilan. "You're threatening me?"
"Creak." The half-open door opened, and the two policemen came back. Seeing that Aunt Zhao's clothes matched the description of Yi Lanyou and Wang Xiaoman, they walked straight towards Aunt Zhao: "Zhao Juan, someone reported that you are suspected of stealing, come with us."
"Misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding!" Aunt Zhao backed up a few steps in a daze: "This is a misunderstanding."
"It doesn't matter if it's a misunderstanding or not, come with us." Two policemen stepped forward and grabbed her arms.
"Don't catch me! Don't catch me! It was a misunderstanding! I don't know anything! It was all wrong! I am innocent! " Aunt Zhao struggled to sit on the ground, her brand-new down jacket was also dirty: "I didn't steal anything! It was a misunderstanding! They got it wrong! They were the ones who got it wrong! Comrade Police Officer, believe me! Believe me! "
"Let's go back to the police station first." The two policemen grabbed the struggling Aunt Zhao and was about to pull her up from the ground.
"Xiao Man!" Say it quickly, Xiaoman! Say it quickly! This is a misunderstanding! " Aunt Zhao roared at the top of her lungs, her pair of round eyes opened wide until they were blood-red.
"I …" Wang Xiaoman took a step back. Aunt Zhao's appearance was really scary.
"Tell me!" Aunt Zhao was already roaring a little.
At this moment, a small voice came out of Ilan's phone, "This, this is what I begged you to get back. I warned you, if the police come, don't spout nonsense. Do you hear me? Just say it's a misunderstanding. Say it's you two kids making a mistake, do you hear me?! "
When Aunt Zhao heard this recording, she instantly sagged. Her face was deathly pale and she stopped struggling.
