The next morning, Yang Hua'an and his wife arrived at the backyard of the guesthouse.

Captain Wang wasn't surprised to see them arrive.

Yang Hua'an only suffered a broken hand bone, unlike Du Ziteng who had internal organ damage and couldn't withstand the bumps of the car.

However, as soon as Yang Hua'an saw Li Kaixin, his eyes immediately became evasive.

Yesterday's incident was exactly as Li Kaixin suspected. He had instigated his wife to provoke him, intending to anger Li Kaixin into violence and ruin his reputation.

Unexpectedly, Du Ziteng's parents appeared out of nowhere and ruined his plans.

He didn't dare look at Li Kaixin right now, partly because he felt guilty, and partly because he was really afraid of experiencing the feeling of being unable to speak for two days again.

Captain Wang assigned the repaired car to two apprentices with a year of experience to take turns driving it.

Yang Hua'an and his wife were put in the car of the two apprentice masters.

After everything was ready, the convoy, led by Captain Wang, quickly left Jianchang and headed towards the capital.

Zhou Zhiming, who was in the car, yawned deeply, looking like he hadn't woken up yet, his eyes half-open as he stared ahead.

Hearing the noise, Li Kaixin couldn't help but chuckle: "I told you not to go to bed earlier last night, you just kept talking."

Zhou Zhiming forced himself to stay awake and rubbed his eyes:

"Master, how can you blame me? What happened last night was so amazing. Even now, the scene keeps replaying in my mind."

It turned out that after returning to his room last night, Zhou Zhiming lay on the bed and talked until the early hours of the morning.

She recounted the details of how Du's mother and Aunt Yang argued, and how Aunt Yang fled in a disheveled state when Captain Wang got angry, several times.

As a result, I woke up this morning looking listless.

Li Kaixin shook her head, her tone tinged with helplessness: "Don't force yourself, take a nap in the car."

"Oh, thank you, Master." Zhou Zhiming really couldn't hold on any longer; his eyelids were drooping.

He closed his eyes immediately after speaking.

At 1 p.m., the convoy finally entered Beijing.

After delivering the dried fish to the dried goods sections of various department stores, the truck turned around and headed towards the transport station.

In front of the carport inside the transport station.

Station Chief Zhao, Director Xie, and several staff members were already waiting there, but none of them had a smile on their faces.

The convoy came to a stop, and the drivers and apprentices of the transport team just got out of the vehicles.

Director Xie's voice rang out: "Everyone has worked hard! After you hand over your guns, please come to the conference room for a meeting."

After saying that, he turned and headed towards the conference room with Station Chief Zhao, his face expressionless.

Everyone in the team understood the reason for the meeting, and they couldn't help but feel resentful towards Yang Hua'an, whispering a few words to each other.

Normally, after a long-distance mission, I could hand over my gun and go straight home to rest; there was no need for any further meetings.

Seeing this, one of the officers coughed lightly and reminded them, "Men, let's hand over the guns first, so as not to keep the leaders waiting."

The atmosphere at the station has been oppressive these past few days. Station Chief Zhao has been keeping a sullen face, and all the staff members are on edge, afraid of incurring bad luck.

As soon as the officer finished speaking, Li Kaixin led Zhou Zhiming forward and handed over the gun.

As Li Kaixin and Zhou Zhiming walked to the meeting room door, Li Kaixin saw Director Xie standing by the door, so she let Zhou Zhiming go in and find a seat first.

He then moved closer to Director Xie and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Xie, it's just a car overturning, why is there such a big fuss?"

As he spoke, he gestured towards the podium.

If only Station Chief Zhao and Director Xie were present, he wouldn't have asked that question.

But right now, not only is Station Chief Zhao sitting on the stage, but there are also several unfamiliar faces with serious expressions and extraordinary demeanor, and Station Chief Zhao is not even sitting in the middle.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this situation is unusual.

Director Xie turned slightly to the side and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"That day, when you were reporting to Captain Wang about Yang Hua'an's accident, a higher-up came to inspect the area and happened to be in the stationmaster's office and overheard the whole thing."

"Then Yang Hua'an is in real trouble this time, isn't he?" Li Kaixin said with a hint of amusement.

"What else?"

Director Xie lowered his voice even further: "If Du Ziteng hadn't escaped serious trouble, Yang Hua'an would probably still be in jail for a few more days."

He paused, then added, "The leader might ask you a few questions later, so be sure to answer truthfully."

"I understand, thank you, Uncle Xie."

Li Kaixin nodded sincerely, then suddenly remembered something and spoke again:

"By the way, Uncle Xie, I didn't buy anything good with the two hundred yuan you gave me, so..."

"We'll talk about this after the meeting."

Director Xie gently interrupted Li Kaixin, gesturing with his chin towards the conference room: "Go find a seat first."

Li Kaixin understood and didn't say anything more. He turned around and walked towards the empty seat next to Zhou Zhiming.

Zhou Zhiming and Wu Tian were having a lively conversation, and naturally, the topic inevitably turned to Yang Hua'an. They didn't even notice Li Kaixin sitting down next to them.

Wu Tian has recovered today and no longer looks as frightened as he did yesterday.

"Brother Wu, do you think Yang Hua'an will be punished this time?" Zhou Zhiming asked curiously.

Wu Tian smiled mysteriously and lowered his voice, saying, "A disciplinary action is definitely in order. I heard from my master that the station won't be lenient this time."

"Xiao Tian is right. But this time the punishment is probably more severe than you think," Li Kaixin suddenly interjected.

Upon hearing the sound, Wu Tian and Zhou Zhiming turned their heads in unison.

Zhou Zhiming looked surprised: "Master, when did you sit here? I didn't notice at all."

"Just now," Li Kaixin replied with a smile.

At this point, Wu Tian continued, "By the way, Kaixin, you said the punishment would be particularly severe, do you know something about it?"

Li Kaixin smiled without saying anything, gesturing for the two of them to look towards the podium.

Although they didn't understand why, they still followed Li Kaixin's gaze.

Zhou Zhiming glanced at it twice, then asked in a low voice without thinking, "What's wrong, Master? Aren't there more leaders on stage than usual?"

Wu Tian, ​​having gained some social experience, took a closer look and his face immediately showed a look of realization and shock.

Li Kaixin felt somewhat helpless looking at the two people's completely different reactions.

My apprentice still needs to hone his insight and social experience.

Before he could explain, Wu Tian spoke up first: "Zhiming, Kaixin is right. That old bastard is really in big trouble this time. It's a miracle!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh.

Zhou Zhiming was even more confused and stared blankly at his master, waiting for an explanation.

Li Kaixin sighed softly and said in a low voice, "You silly boy, don't you understand yet? Apart from Station Chief Zhao, those people on the stage are all leaders from above."

As he spoke, he pointed upwards without making a sound.

Zhou Zhiming then realized what was happening, and his face immediately showed surprise.
