Chapter 88: Fishing for people
"That would be perfect, thank you so much, Zhizhi."

Zhang Zhizhi smiled shyly, "It's no trouble at all. We got to know each other thanks to you. I'm so proud to have made friends with both of you."

"Sister Song is nearby, only two kilometers away."

Zhang Zhizhi couldn't wait to attend Sisi's wedding banquet. Although her job as a sales clerk at the supply and marketing cooperative was good, it was nothing compared to Song Yiping and the others.

Sisi knows so many talented people, her wedding banquet will definitely be a lively affair!

Now all her friends are incredibly capable, and she can't be happier.

Ji Sisi smiled wryly, "Two kilometers is still short..."

However, when you think about it, it does seem to be much closer than the Agricultural Machinery Bureau.

About twenty minutes later, Zhang Zhizhi led Ji Sisi to stop in front of a bungalow at the deepest part of the alley.

Zhang Zhizhi pushed open the iron gate with practiced ease. "Sister Song, guess who I brought?"

Song Yiping had just finished stewing the pork ribs and was sitting on the sofa listening to the radio, feeling incredibly comfortable.

"Is Sisi here?"

Song Yiping jumped up from the sofa and walked out. When she saw Ji Sisi, she smiled and said, "It really is Sisi! You've come at the right time. I just started stewing the ribs. You're all having lunch here today!"

"Sister Song, I've come to invite you and Director Ji to our wedding banquet. I was wondering if you're free on Saturday?"

Song Yiping paused for a moment, then nodded repeatedly and agreed with a smile.

"Of course there are! Come on in and sit down."

Song Yiping's house is spacious. On the left side of the living room, there is a large eight-immortal table. The windows, coffee table and sofa are covered with various kinds of lace to prevent dust. The radio on the coffee table is also the most fashionable at the time, and clear human voices come from it.

There are three rooms in total: a kitchen and two bedrooms.

"By the way, Sisi, I heard that the agricultural supplies institute's experimental field in your Huaihua Commune was destroyed. This shouldn't have anything to do with you, right?"

Song Yiping only knew that Ji Sisi was from Huaihua Commune, but she didn't know which production team.

"Sister Song, you've come to the right person. I'm from that production team."

Song Yiping paused in her pouring of water and said with a smile, "Your director didn't blame you, did he? This matter has little to do with you. I remember when I received the call, my husband was at the agricultural supplies office, and Old Wu was so angry that the few hairs on his head stood up."

Sisi managed to borrow a tractor all by herself, which is quite an achievement. Seeing her like this, she should be alright.

As the cup steamed, Ji Sisi suddenly remembered that she had received a letter of understanding from the agricultural supplies department, and since she was currently in the county town, she wondered if she could stop by and visit Shen Zichen.

"Of course we were angry, but Director Wu is a kind-hearted person with a sharp tongue. After he found out it wasn't done by someone, he even gave us a letter of understanding."

Ji Sisi skipped the details and went straight to the result.

"By the way, Sister Song, a friend of mine got detained because of a misunderstanding. I think his name is... at the Public Security Bureau in Kuizi District. Do you know where that is?"

"I know him, my brother works there. Anyway, I'm free this afternoon, I'll take you to him. It's easier to get things done if you know someone there!"

Song Yiping initially thought that Ji Sisi was a good-looking and capable woman, so she thought of making friends with her.

Surprisingly, I had something on me.

She knew Old Wu well; he was a real expert and couldn't be handled without some skill. She wondered what methods this young girl had used.

But judging from this, the one in the capital should be satisfied with this daughter-in-law, right?

She had heard a little about Qi Yan's family background; they were wealthy, but it wasn't easy to marry into a wealthy family.
-
Kuizi District Public Security Bureau.

"Song Changgui, your older sister is here to see you!" Song Yiping often brought things for her younger brother, and the people at the Public Security Bureau all knew her and called her "older sister" along with him.

Although Xiao Hu was talking to Song Yiping, his eyes never left Ji Sisi.

"Big sister, who are these two?"

Song Yiping knew exactly what the boy meant, and said coldly, "This is none of your business. Quickly call Changgui out. I have something important to discuss with him."

Xiao Hu didn't hold a grudge, smiled and nodded, then turned and went inside to call for help.

After a while, a man who was about 1.78 meters tall came out of another room. He was wearing a light green uniform, walking hurriedly, with wheat-colored skin, and his eyebrows and eyes bore a resemblance to Song Yiping.

Upon closer inspection, she noticed a grain of rice still clung to Song Changgui's lips. "Sister, what did you want to see me about?"

Seeing her younger brother like this, Song Yiping felt both sorry for him and disgusted. "Hurry up and wipe your mouth. Did you just come back from a mission to eat so late?"

Song Changgui raised his hand to wipe his mouth, a grain of rice falling from his palm. He subconsciously glanced at Zhang Zhizhi behind his older sister, and when he met the woman's smiling eyes, his cheeks burned intensely.

You rascal Hu Erwa, he'll remember this grudge!
"Alright, it's not that I need something from you, it's that a friend of mine needs your help with something. You two chat, I'll take Zhizhi outside to get you something."

Knowing that the procedures were complicated, Song Yiping decided to take Zhang Zhizhi out for a walk first.

Her sharp eyes didn't miss the silly little brother's look just now!

"I'm not in a hurry. Why don't you finish your lunch first and then we can talk?"

Song Changgui quickly shook his head, "No need, I'll just have a couple of bites. What do you need me for?"

Ji Sisi explained the purpose of her visit and presented the letter of understanding from the Agricultural Supplies Institute.

Song Changgui arranged for Ji Sisi to wait in the waiting room. "In principle, Shen Zichen should be detained for seven days before someone is sent to pick him up. Although he has less responsibility, he has already broken the law by deliberately taking the blame for someone else. However, the higher-ups took into consideration that he was forced into it, so they did not give him a heavy sentence."

"May I ask him what the reason was for him being forced?"

Ji Sisi was really curious.

"It was a malicious extortion scheme involving a brother and sister. One was after a person, and the other was after money. We have now helped Shen Zichen recover the money. As for Fang Fei, we also asked a female colleague to take her for a check-up. She did not have a relationship with Shen Zichen."

Ji Sisi nodded and didn't say anything more. She gave the letter of understanding to Song Changgui.

Half an hour later, Shen Zichen was led into the waiting room by Song Changgui.

"Sisi?"

Ji Sisi looked up in response, a smile on her face, "How have you been at the bureau these past few days?"

Shen Zichen lowered his head in shame. His eyes were dark and his unkempt stubble grew wildly, making him look somewhat like a homeless man.

"Thank you."

Despite being framed and captured, Shen Zichen remained calm, but upon entering the room, he saw a familiar face.

Tears welled up in Shen Zichen's eyes, and his eyes became moist.

He had only helped Ji Sisi once, and the two had met no more than five times in total, yet she was willing to help him so much.

Only she believed in herself; whether in the capital or here, it seemed that only Ji Sisi believed in him.

Ji Sisi sensed Shen Zichen's change in mood and tried to ease the tension with a joke.
