Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 38: Earnest
"Comrade police officer, you misunderstood. I was not in danger. I found the enemy spies hiding in the yard in front of me. I discovered this after careful observation these days."

"Also, I have inquired about it. Niu Yuanqing goes to the Sixth Hospital every week to see Doctor Chen, who said that there is something wrong with his legs and it hurts whenever it rains."

"But I've seen him say that he only covers his leg and complains about the severe pain when it starts to rain. He has no reaction before it rains. This is very wrong and shouldn't be like this."

"My dad used to have this problem. Whenever it was going to rain, his legs would hurt. It was more accurate than anything else."

Zhou Weimin handed the notebook to Meng Guozheng, and while he was looking at his notes, he slowly spoke out the speech he had prepared long ago.

The more Meng Guozheng looked, the more surprised he was. Zhou Weimin's observation was too detailed. He almost wrote down how many times Niu Yuanqing went to the toilet in the factory.

However, it was precisely because the notes were detailed enough that he could see that there was something wrong with Niu Yuanqing.

He is too cautious. Apart from work, he will deliberately erase his own credit in almost everything he does.

This also makes him easily overlooked by everyone.

"How did you spot him? According to his style, you shouldn't have noticed him."

Meng Guozheng closed his notebook and stared into Zhou Weimin's eyes.

It was really because Zhou Weimin did such an outstanding job that people wondered if he had received any training.

"Well, it's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse. I remember the three men before. The two I killed seemed to be from Niujia Village. I saw them several times when I was purchasing. It was because there was no movement from your side that I wanted to check it myself in a hurry. He was the only one with the surname Niu in the surrounding yards."

"Police comrade, please don't misunderstand me. I'm not blaming you. I understand. You have your own considerations. I have younger brothers and sisters at home. I won't feel at ease until I catch the man."

Zhou Weimin stared at Meng Guozheng blankly for three seconds, then felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly explained.

He had thought about the possibility of this situation a long time ago, and it was not difficult to deal with it.

"You are a good brother. Don't be so impulsive in the future. If you are discovered, you and your brothers and sisters will be in danger."

Meng Guozheng was a little amused by his answer. If you say he was rigorous, then his target was so random. If you say he was impulsive, he actually caught the person.

I have to say that what Zhou Weimin said about a blind cat catching a dead mouse is really correct.

Zhou Weimin waved his hands repeatedly, then asked cautiously: "No, no, comrade policeman, can you help me keep the things I reported a secret? I'm afraid if this gets out, someone will target my brother and sister, and it doesn't matter if I don't get the reward for catching enemy spies."

He really thought so. Nowadays, there are many lurking enemy spies. He doesn't want to be targeted again because of this kind of thing after he has finally solved the problem.

Just like this time, because of his cheap father's affairs, he wanted to use his life to protest to other people.

"Since you have this request, we will definitely keep it a secret for you, but the leaders of your steel mill will still know about it. Don't worry, after this incident, those rats won't dare to do anything to you again. Now it's the people's world, they have to keep their tails between their legs and not be too presumptuous."

Meng Guozheng understood Zhou Weimin's concerns very well, so he agreed immediately and comforted him with a few words. Zhou Weimin also smiled with relief.

As long as he kept it a secret, he didn't take what Meng Guozheng said later to heart.

Matters like this, which concern one's life and property, must be handled with extreme caution. After all, one only has one life, and no matter how good a fighter he is, he cannot beat a bullet.

"Then police comrade, I'll leave first. Well, Niu Yuanqing, you will act immediately, right? My brother and sister are coming back, and I'm afraid he might have some bad intentions."

Zhou Weimin stood up to say goodbye, but when he reached the door, he asked another question worriedly.

"Don't worry, I will verify the situation immediately. After confirming that it is correct, I will arrest him immediately. If it happens quickly, you will be able to hear some news today." Meng Guozheng thought for a while and felt that Zhou Weimin, the person involved, might understand some of the situation, so he gave him a brief explanation and told him to put his mind at ease.

"Thank you, police comrade. I'll be leaving now."

Zhou Weimin thanked him again, then left quickly and rode his bicycle back to the factory.

Because he left home early and did not stay in the bureau for too long, when Zhou Weimin arrived at the steel rolling mill, it was the time when the most people entered the mill.

A handsome guy got off the car, and Zhou Weimin pushed his bicycle into the factory with the crowd.

"Wei Min, where have you been? Why are you here so late?"

Just when Zhou Weimin was pushing the cart to the carport, He Yuzhu appeared out of nowhere.

"I didn't sleep well yesterday. I couldn't stand it halfway through the ride, so I leaned against the wall to take a rest. Silly Zhu, are you just here, or do you have something to talk to me about?"

Zhou Weimin lied casually. He had done what he needed to do. He planned to stay in the purchasing department quietly all day to avoid running around and being noticed by others.

As for the trivial things in the yard, he didn't want to care about them at all.

"I just arrived, but I really have something to talk to you about. Are you free now?"

He Yuzhu said with a smile, looking at Zhou Weimin with some earnestness in his eyes.

"I'm going to report my work progress to my boss in a bit. If you have anything to say, just tell him. Don't dilly-dally."

Zhou Weimin locked his bicycle and walked forward on his own.

Just by looking at He Yuzhu's expression, he knew what this guy was going to say, and he really had no interest in wasting time with him.

"No, Weimin, walk slower, are you complaining about your legs being too long?"

He Yuzhu quickly caught up with Zhou Weimin.

Zhou Weimin glanced at Sha Zhu and said indifferently, "Long legs are for playing with! Hurry up, if you have something to say, say it."

He Yuzhu didn't understand what he meant, and he didn't seem to notice Zhou Weimin's impatience, so he said with a shameless face: "Ah? Well, Weimin, can you tell me more about the girl you said you found for me yesterday?"

It's not that he didn't know what Zhou Weimin was angry about, but this was just a misunderstanding. At worst, they could just have a drink and talk it out.

"Silly Zhu, you should explain your situation to everyone first before you tell me this. Also, I've told you that I don't know what kind of person you are now. I won't introduce you to any girls until I see clearly. I can't push people into the fire pit. That's it, don't follow me."

Zhou Weimin stopped, looked into his eyes, and spoke very bluntly, then left without looking back.

Under normal circumstances, he might still be willing to chat with Sha Zhu, but today he just wanted Sha Zhu to get out.

Simply put, He Yuzhu has lost his value and he has no time to play with him.
