Quick Wear: Devil's Whisper

Chapter 187 The most beautiful thing is the sunset 35

Residents of several households involved gathered downstairs and demanded that the chimney installation be stopped immediately.

The owner of the river fish restaurant tried to persuade everyone and made many assurances, but it was no use; everyone just didn't agree.

It would have been fine if he didn't involve the Wang family's restaurant, but when he was about to use others as an example, he was scolded back by the old men and women who were watching.

"The two bosses came to our house with gifts during the Chinese New Year and went door to door to get residents' consent before starting the work. You acted without permission and didn't care about the rights of other residents at all."

"Yes! His behavior is to harm others for his own benefit. He has no respect for his reputation just to make money."

"How dare he have such a face! He dug a basement without permission, secretly drained sewage, and ran the exhaust in the middle of the night, making more noise than a garbage truck."

"Of course. His kitchen was used to dump garbage, and the steps were covered with oil and soup. When have you ever seen him clean up?"

The owner of the Jiangyu Restaurant was besieged by a group of old men and women. He cowered and pretended to be a quail. Otherwise, you would say he was thick-skinned! Whatever you say, he didn't ask the workers to stop the construction.

The worker installing the chimney was hanging in the air and couldn't hear clearly what the people below were arguing about, but he could guess a lot from the way they were talking.

But even if they can hear clearly, as long as the employer doesn't say anything, they will continue with the construction, because making money is the top priority.

Not only that, they have to act faster. If the residents win in the end and let them tear down the chimney, they can make more money!

The situation was at a stalemate here when the community director and a fat policeman arrived at the scene.

Grassroots communities are very good at handling such disputes, and police officers often deal with such incidents in a conciliatory manner. In fact, ordinary people have become accustomed to it.

This fat policeman is no ordinary person! After listening to the demands of both parties, he patted his chest and assured that it was just a flue and would not cause noise or fire hazards. If anything went wrong, they could contact him.

This time, not to mention the residents, even the community director looked at him in surprise. Was this restaurant opened by his relatives? Otherwise, how could a public official say such a thoughtless thing?

The residents were very disappointed and felt that they were betrayed by the police officers they trusted. Originally, the police station in their area was the most famous in the city, but they didn't know when it became like this.

An old man with a cane explained the truth: "One bad apple spoils the whole barrel. Some people defend their honor with their lives, but in the eyes of some people, honor is not as real as kickbacks."

A girl in the crowd, who was covered tightly, recorded all these materials. She felt that these seemingly trivial things reflected the abnormal phenomena in the society and could be used to make a topic.

This person is Qiao Yiyi's friend and also runs a self-media account, but most of the content she shoots is about people's livelihood issues.

Just now, Qiao Yiyi was reporting the situation to another community director and did not pay attention to what was happening here.

Qiao Yiyi has lived here for two months and has sent out more than a dozen videos. She is currently in the final stage, but recently, she encountered a troublesome thing.

It would be more accurate to say that I feel disgusted rather than annoyed.

Sometimes Qiao Yiyi goes to restaurants that are open 24 hours a day to shoot material and comes back very late.

When she came home late for the first time and returned to her rented house, as soon as she opened the door, a long silver-gray object fell from the sky. When she picked it up and examined it, she found that it was two unopened condoms connected together.

She didn't think much about it at the time, thinking it was a prank, so she threw the condom away.

But unexpectedly, she encountered the same situation again three days later. At that time, Qiao Yiyi took a video and sent it to the owners' group to ask if similar situations had occurred in other homes.

Seeing that other families had not encountered such a thing, Qiao Yiyi knew that this person was targeting her, so she took the evidence to the police station to report the crime.

There are no surveillance cameras installed in the corridors of the old community, but there is a place for swiping cards on the unit doors. This is a surveillance camera that was installed when the old urban area was renovated and video doorbells were installed for every household.

It was the old policeman who received the call at that time. He did not turn it off just because no actual harm was caused. Instead, he took a serious statement and checked the surveillance footage at the door.

In summer, the unit doors are generally open, which means that everyone can enter the unit without swiping an access card.

At the end of the day, there are so many people coming in and out, more than a dozen deliverymen and couriers alone.

Seeing the efforts made by the police comrades in this matter, Qiao Yiyi expressed her approval. She knew that this old policeman was very dedicated to his work.

She avoided going out at night in the next few days. She was about to move out anyway, so she just had to be careful.

Just when she thought that calling the police had frightened the pervert, when she opened the door in the morning, she saw the familiar formula, with two silver-gray packaging bags falling from the sky.

It was clearly not there when she came back yesterday. That is to say, when she was editing the video in the living room, the man was in the corridor, stuffing condoms into her security door.

Qiao Yiyi was furious and posted her experience again in the group, calling on residents to be on the lookout for suspicious people and for women living alone to pay attention to their own safety.

She knew that the man must be a nearby resident who specifically targeted young women living alone, and who knows where he might be hiding and spying on them now!

Qiao Yiyi went to the station to pick up her friend and told her what had happened. On the way back, she happened to meet the community director. She immediately took out her cell phone and told her the disgusting thing that had happened to her.

The community director said that an announcement would be posted in the owners’ group, asking everyone to provide clues and enhance awareness of prevention.

At this moment, the fat policeman "successfully" completed the mediation and walked towards this side.

The community director happened to report to him about the situation Qiao Yiyi encountered. The fat policeman agreed to go for a patrol with a fairly kind attitude and would inform them when there was any result.

In fact, this person didn't care at all. He went back to the station, had lunch, and took a nap. He said in the community group that there was no surveillance in the corridor and there were insufficient clues, but asked everyone to pay attention to safety.

He also specifically tagged Qiao Yiyi and asked her to throw away the condoms she received so that she wouldn't be upset by seeing them.

Qiao Yiyi said that she was not comforted. Instead, she felt that this man was far worse than the old policeman who asked her to throw away the things. In case something really happened, this thing would at least be a piece of evidence. How could he just throw it away?

After three days of peace, the friend who worked in the self-media industry left, and Qiao Yiyi was the only one left in the rental house.

She thought about asking the agent if she could terminate the lease early, but the answer was naturally no. She had no choice but to hold on for another half a month.

Who would have thought that I would not be able to hold out for half a month, and that this gave criminals an opportunity to take advantage of me...
