Courtyard House: My System - Artificial Human

"Arrest Jia Dongxu for indecent behavior! Jia Dongxu! Jia Zhangshi, come out here!"

"Hey! Grandma, you don't know yet, do you? Jia Dongxu has seen the error of his ways and took me to the police station himself! Now only Yi Zhonghai is left to go! You should talk to him and prevent him from harming everyone in the yard."

Yan Bugui snorted coldly, and seeing the old lady's face change repeatedly, looking extremely angry, he couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

You old codger, you always take advantage of your age to criticize this person and that person.

"Are you going or not? Are you going or not? I'm asking you, are you going or not!"

On the main battlefield, Liu Haizhong delivers devastating blows, striking with every question and becoming the embodiment of justice.

Although most of the punches were blocked by Yi Zhonghai's arms and groin, his face was still bleeding from the blows.

At the entrance of the courtyard house, Tian Zaowan, with her sleeves wrapped around her hands and a complicated look in her eyes, secretly glanced at Lin Weidong, who was standing upright beside her watching the show.

At this moment, she didn't know how to judge him. He had clearly stood up for her and even helped Uncle Liang save face.

But no matter how I look at it... something just doesn't seem right!

"Zao'er! Are you alright? What... what happened?" Chen Liang, bewildered and confused, jogged over, accompanied by a police officer on duty.

He had originally called for two people, but on the way he ran into Jia Zhangshi and her son, who solemnly declared that they wanted to turn themselves in, so he sent one of them back to the station.

Tian Zao glanced at Lin Weidong subconsciously, then concisely recounted what had happened after Chen Liang left.

"Hiss!" Chen Liang couldn't help but gasp, looking at the back of the figure in front of him.

The last time I encountered someone so eloquent was Tang Sanzang from the Journey to the West.

Even though he was standing on the steps at the entrance and Lin Weidong was standing in the yard, why did he seem so much shorter?

"Officer Chen, these people who fought should be taken back for education... However, Comrade Liu Haizhong was forced to fight. His son was kicked by Yi Zhonghai, and he only wanted to persuade Yi Zhonghai to go to the detention center for reform... His intentions were good!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Chen Liang nodded repeatedly.

At this time, the four people fighting in the courtyard had stopped and were being questioned by another police officer about the reason.

Of course, they each held their own views and argued endlessly.

The police simply waved their hands and took them all away! What's the point of arguing!

This time, no one dared to voice their opinions. Even the deaf old lady knew that times had changed. Fighting so fiercely and being caught by the police meant they would definitely be taken away for education.

Liu Haizhong also had injuries on his face, but he stood tall and proud, looking as smug as an ever-victorious general.

The police selected several enthusiastic citizens to understand the situation. Yan Bugui was the most proactive and insisted on going to the police station to answer the police officers' questions. Tian Zao also went with Chen Liang, but she was somewhat afraid to face Lin Weidong.

Lin Weidong stood at the door, watching their departing figures, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.

Hearing Liu Guangqi crying beside him, he waved.

"Guangqi, go back and take a quilt from home to your parents! Take good care of your younger brothers tonight, and call me from the other side of the courtyard if anything happens."

"Okay! Thank you, Uncle Lin." Liu Guangqi was touched by his calm arrangements, wiped away his tears, and ran home.

Soon, he and Liu Guangtian grabbed two quilts and chased after them.

The deaf old lady in the courtyard realized that prisons must be very cold these days!

But even after asking around half the courtyard with her cane, no one was willing to deliver blankets to Yi Zhonghai and his wife.

She spat angrily at Lin Weidong's courtyard and left.

In the end, it was only after He Daqing and his son returned that the deaf old lady was able to find someone she could command.

He Daqing was grateful to Gao Cuilan for taking care of Yushui for him every day. After returning, he made a special effort to find out the reason for the incident, wanting to know if Yi Zhonghai and his wife had been wronged and bullied.

But after his neighbor finished telling him everything, his usually expressionless face twitched violently a few times.

When he got home, he repeatedly told his two children to be polite and sweet-talking when they ran into Lin Weidong.

He Yushui was only five years old. She ate the pastries that He Daqing brought back and nodded in a daze.

He Yuzhu scoffed. In his opinion, Lin Weidong was not as good as Liu Haizhong. He had heard that Liu Haizhong had given Yi Zhonghai a good beating today!

In the backyard of the Xu family home, Xu Fugui listened to his wife's admiring recounting of what had happened, and then gave Xu Damao a similar warning.

That night, in the courtyard and even the neighboring courtyard, every household was educating their children.

That evening, when Yan Bugui returned from the police station, his first priority was not to go home, but to run to the courtyard to find Lin Weidong.

Lin Weidong was not very satisfied with Yan Bugui's performance today, mainly because Yan Bugui lacked initiative and needed to be reminded.

Unlike Liu Haizhong, he is much more proactive.

But no matter what, Yan Bugui did contribute to today's commotion, as he got his cane smacked several times by the deaf old lady.

So Lin Weidong generously handed him a Double Happiness cigarette. As for wanting to smoke Zhonghua cigarettes? He could wait until he was as conscious as Liu Haizhong before asking.

Yan Bugui reported on the follow-up handling of the matter.

Yi Zhonghai and his wife, along with Liu Haizhong, were immediately locked up.

As for Liu Haizhong's wife, the police, considering that Liu's third child was only a little over a year old, gave her a few words of advice and then let her go home to take care of the child.

After Yan Bugui left, Lin Weidong was in a good mood and sat at the table enjoying his late-night snack.

The "Hutong" template has been loaded on the system panel.

[Fusion Rewards Now Available]

[1. Reward the host with 1 beginner clone]

[2. Congratulations, host, you have acquired the skill: Eye of Truth; property: a two-courtyard siheyuan in Nanluoguxiang; ten large and ten small yellow croakers; 365 pills of the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Pill]

3. Added a new alleyway check-in function. Checking in will earn you corresponding resources, and there is a certain chance to obtain special rewards.

[Should it be integrated with the courtyard house check-in function? If integrated, the rewards will remain the same, reducing repetitive and tedious operations.]

[Note: Eye of Truth: A visual status bar that displays the target's identity, current status, and level of affinity towards the host. Fusion can significantly improve vision.]

Property: Located at No. 13 Suoyi Hutong, west of Nanluoguxiang, with one cat and one dog as pets. The relevant documents are old certificates issued during the Republic of China era and can be transferred to any copier.

"Let's sign the courtyard house agreement for today first." Lin Weidong glanced at the rewards and decided in his mind that he wanted to see the difference between the two.

[Successfully checked in at the courtyard house. Congratulations, host! You have received one dose of fertility-enhancing and pregnancy-stabilizing medicine (for both men and women)]

Lin Weidong made a six-pointed hand gesture and then shelved it.

Isn't this exactly what Yi Zhonghai has been dreaming of?

"Check-in in the alley!"

[Sign-in successful in the alley. Congratulations, host! You have received ten catties of Yue Sheng Zhai braised beef.]

[First-time sign-in bonus: Congratulations, host, you have received one Enicar and one Plum Blossom watch; two sets each of Hongdu and Xiangsheng brand custom-made Zhongshan suits; two pairs each of Warrior brand sneakers and Neiliansheng cloth shoes; and ten bolts of three-color cotton cloth.]

Two notification sounds rang in his mind. Lin Weidong roughly estimated the value, which was about the same as the first time he signed in at the courtyard house. The watch was the main valuable item.

He took it out to compare it with the other two, then put it back with a listless expression.

This thing is useless to him for the time being; wearing it would attract attention, and leaving it in his space wouldn't cause any issues.

Besides, he could easily tell the time by glancing at the system, making it rather useless.
