Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Inside the compound, the group organizing the parade had already finished their workday.

The vehicle was taken into storage, and the weapons were handed over.

Although civilian organizations had guns at that time, they were strictly managed.

Most workplaces have centralized management after get off work, and employees are not allowed to take their food home.

Many units also issue firearms through their security departments, which can be carried on one's person.

During combat, weapons must be surrendered after use.

Only a few leaders were still allowed to carry pistols.

Zhao Balai was also the captain of the street command center. Guns were only issued by the higher authorities when a mission was being carried out.

It's not usually there.

At this moment, the Red Guards in the courtyard handed over their guns to the armory.

People are starting to leave work one after another.

Zuo Shouquan and Lu Yao entered, but no one paid them any attention.

Zuo Shouquan wore a police uniform, and Lu Yao wore an armband. Both the police and the militiamen were people who frequently came and went in this compound.

Everyone was busy with their own things, and no one asked them what they were doing.

Lu Yao grabbed an older man and asked:

"Uncle, is the person in charge of this facility here?"

"You're looking for Director Li? He's in his office."

Lu Yao and Zuo Shouquan went inside.

The command post office was very spacious.

The surrounding area is filled with wooden benches and chaise lounges.

They surrounded the house.

If it's full, it can seat thirty or forty people.

It does resemble a conference room.

However, the presence of several bloodstained leather whips hanging on the wall and the thick shackles in the corner created a somewhat incongruous and unsettling scene.

In the middle of the ground, there was an iron stove burning, with the stove tube suspended from the roof beam by iron wire, extending out of the window.

The fire in the stove was blazing, making the stove pipes near it glow red-hot. It warmed the room cozy and cozy.

Behind a writing desk was a large wooden armchair.

A middle-aged man with a long face and sunken cheeks sat in the armchair.

I'm on the phone right now.

"Alright, alright, gather all our forces and contact the 458 Factory command. We'll negotiate the day after tomorrow. If we can't reach an agreement, then we'll take them down!"

A girl with two small hairpins was making tea nearby.

Seeing Lu Yao and Zuo Shouquan enter, the little girl hurriedly asked:

"Comrades, who are you looking for?"

The middle-aged man with the long face who had just hung up the phone also looked up.

Zuo Shouquan forced a smile:

"Young comrade, we are from Shuiling Commune. My name is Zuo Shouquan, and I am the director of Shuiling Police Station. His name is Lu Yao, and he is the militia group leader."

"Is there something you need?"

The young girl looked like a clerk, asking the question on behalf of her supervisor.

Zuo Shouquan hurriedly said, "We are looking for your leader, Director Li Xu."

"That's me. What's up?"

The middle-aged man with the horse-like face sat there without moving an inch.

Lu Yao remained silent.

His eyes were fixed on the horse-faced man in front of him.

My mind is racing to recall.

In his previous life, Lu Yao returned to Jiangzhou from abroad to develop his career.

It is essential to understand the history of Jiangzhou.

So he often looked through the Jiangzhou County Annals.

The Jiangzhou County Gazetteer is an encyclopedia introducing the Jiangzhou area.

It is neither a novel nor a story, but a very rigorous, comprehensive and systematic local reference book.

It contains detailed records from before liberation to after liberation, during the Cultural Revolution, and the development of reform and opening up.

It contains accounts of major events and key figures.

This Li Xu, also known as "Li Po Si," is recorded in the county annals.

Lu Yao even showed it to Zheng Shuang, saying that this Li Posi was a model of destroying the four old things, so he got this nickname.

He destroyed countless ancient books and historical sites, and persecuted countless intellectuals and artists.

But when this period ended, he was the first to be arrested.

They also found a lot of cultural relics, money and jewelry in his cellar, all of which he had looted.

I remember that when Li Posi was arrested, he had already become the head of the highest command of the Jiangzhou Civilian Militia Organization.

He's currently only a district-level official, holding the title of Industry and Commerce Assistant.

He will reach even greater heights in the future.

Lu Yao didn't have many memories of him.

I don't know if this will be of any help to me.

At this moment, Zuo Shouquan offered a cigarette to Li Posi:

"Director Li, hello."

Li Posi reached out and took it, letting Zuo Shouquan bend down and light it for him.

He even crossed his legs.

What an air of authority, utterly authoritative.

Zuo Shouquan said with a forced smile, "I really do have something to discuss with Director Li."

Then, to ease the awkwardness, she pulled up a chair and sat opposite Li Xu, continuing to speak:

"My militia group and I are jointly investigating a poaching case involving two older boys from Jiapigou Village. I heard you arrested them..."

Li Posi took a drag of his cigarette, tapped the ash, and slowly interrupted Zuo Shouquan:

"Yes, there are two opportunistic little brats who were just paraded through the streets. I'm going to send them to the police station tomorrow to be convicted."

Zuo Shouquan smiled and said, "No need, you don't need to trouble yourself. I'll take them back and deal with them. I still have a lot of things to ask him."

Li Posi scoffed.

"Chief Zuo, you're not following the rules. I arrested him. Give him to you? Are you going to claim credit for it?"

Zuo Shouquan quickly explained, "It's not that serious. They're both just big kids. This little thing isn't anything special. I just want to handle things in my own commune myself. If anyone from Jiangzhou gets into trouble over there in the future, I'll definitely send them back to you."

Zuo Shouquan was forcibly suppressing his anger and putting on a forced smile.

I thought to myself, I'm a police officer, catching criminals is my duty.

You're nobody!

He's nothing but a scoundrel who opportunistically rose to power by taking advantage of the chaos of the times and built up his own influence.

These things are none of your business, yet you're pointing fingers at me!

After saying a lot of nice things, Li Posi didn't even look at Zuo Shouquan, and asked the orderly:

"Lisa, is the water ready? Pour me a bowl, I'm thirsty."

The attendant quickly brought over some tea.

He glanced at Zuo Shouquan.

Logically speaking, since Zuo Shouquan and Lu Yao are guests, water should also be poured for them.

However, since the director hadn't spoken, and seeing his cold attitude towards the guests, she didn't dare to make a decision on her own.

Li Posi picked up the teacup, blew on it, looked at Zuo Shouquan, and then at the young orderly named Dong Lisha.

The orderly understood.

The director often listened to storytelling, and she listened along with him; this was called serving tea and seeing the guest off.

Dong Lisha extended her hand politely to Zuo Shouquan and Lu Yao, saying:

"Excuse me, both of you, our director has other matters to attend to. You may go back now."

Zuo Shouquan was so angry that his heart ached.

But I endured it with difficulty.

After all, it's their territory.

"Lu Yao, let's go."

Lu Yao didn't say a word and followed them out.

He could also see that this guy didn't respect Zuo Shouquan, the director of the lower commune, let alone himself, a mere militiaman.

Zuo Shouquan looked at Lu Yao apologetically:

"Xiao Lu, I've done my best. If this doesn't work, could you try talking to County Chief Hao?"

"Okay, Brother Zuo, don't worry about me. I know what to do. You can go back now."

Zuo Shouquan knew he couldn't make a difference. Lu Yao had other connections, and if he were around, Lu Yao would be too embarrassed to ask others for help.

So Zuo Shouquan took his leave!

Lu Yao was in the courtyard wondering who else he could ask to save those two bastards.

His relationship with Ju Zhenghua and Hao Limin is not yet very good.

Ju Zhenghua is not very confident in his own abilities.

He will only truly believe in himself once his predictions come true.

The new female bureau chief in Jiangzhou hasn't arrived yet.

It's uncertain whether he can even persuade Ju Zhenghua to help him.

Even with County Chief Hao, it's unlikely you can get any influence.

Just as Lu Yao was hesitating in the courtyard, he heard someone call his name from behind:

"You little rascal, get me out of here!"

Lu Yao turned around and saw that Gou Shengzi had been pulled out by two team members again.

The ropes weren't loosened; only the big hat and the sign were removed.

The two men carried him forward like they were catching a pig.

Gou Shengzi saw Lu Yao and immediately shouted.

Lu Yao stepped in and asked, "Dude, where are you taking him?"

One of them, glaring angrily, shouted: "What 'buddy'? Who said we're buddies? Call me 'comrade'!"

Another said, "Get out of the way, our director wants to interrogate him!"
