Courtyard House: My System - Artificial Human

Among the crowd, Lin Weidong's gaze was strange as he repeatedly looked at the status bars above Yi Zhonghai and Liu Erquan's heads.

What a coincidence!

However coincidental it may be, Liu Erquan must be controlled.

Yi Zhonghai thought he was a fake enemy agent and a real swindler, but in fact, this kid was a real enemy agent.

Now that there are reports from the public and witnesses, it is perfectly reasonable to arrest him. Once he is in jail, the police will have their own ways to make him talk.

At Lin Weidong's behest, Jin Lu stepped forward to arrest the man.

Liu Erquan did not resist, but shouted that Yi Zhonghai had framed him and cursed Yi Zhonghai as inhuman, and then obediently allowed the police to restrain him.

Resistance would only confirm his status as an enemy agent, a fact that Liu Erquan, who had been arrested several times for fighting, was well aware of.

At the same time, he was confident in his public identity and had a deep understanding of the current practices and criteria used by the police to convict people.

When the time comes, as long as we insist that Yi Zhonghai framed him, without evidence, the police will at most put him in labor reform for a few days. He's already used to the process, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

What he's thinking about now is how to deal with Yi Zhonghai after he gets out!

That bastard almost scared him to death; he genuinely thought he'd been exposed!

Then he thought about it again and realized that something was wrong. He had been screened by the police many times and had never been exposed. There was no way that Yi Zhonghai would know his identity.

Looking at Yi Zhonghai's smug expression, it was clear that he was deliberately trying to frame him.

Fine, you son of a bitch, just you wait until I get out!

His threatening gaze was fixed on Yi Zhonghai, making him feel guilty. As he passed by, he mustered his courage and repeated himself.

"Hmph! I'll never let a spy like you live under the same sky!"

"Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai, I really misjudged you! Whether I'm an enemy spy or not, the police will find out. We'll see how they convict you then! I originally thought you were just a simple coward, but I never expected you to be such a hypocrite who turns on his benefactor after using him!"

Liu Erquan retorted with a confident smile.

Yi Zhonghai scoffed. "How can you convict me?"

He reported the enemy out of a sense of righteousness to prevent their activities; at most, he'd just get a warning, not be executed.

Didn't Liu Haizhong also report He Daqing? And nothing happened to him.

Lin Weidong stared at the status bars of the two people, roughly understanding their mental state, and secretly shook his head.

Erquan! You're speaking too soon; you won't be able to get out of here.

But Lao Yi, you're an unlucky one; you're not going to get the credit for catching enemy agents!

After explaining things to Jin Lu through the system space, Lin Weidong watched him leave with Liu Erquan.

Inside the courtyard, everyone wore strange expressions and had different thoughts. Some people secretly cast glances at Lin Weidong.

This tactic of labeling people feels strangely familiar.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai was in high spirits. He shouted another statement to everyone and went home satisfied to deal with the mess.

He was quite satisfied with his handling of the situation. After this incident, even if he couldn't completely regain the face he had lost, he could at least improve people's impression of him.

The key point is that he regained his former confidence! He also finally understood why Lin Weidong was able to remain undefeated in this courtyard.

As soon as he entered, Yi Zhonghai began making arrangements.

"Sister-in-law, Lao Yan, today's incident was purely accidental. I didn't expect that Liu Erquan to be such a bad seed. However, he has already been arrested by the police, and it's only a matter of time before he gets his comeuppance."

"Old Yan, your injuries are from fighting with Liu Erquan. Do you think you should go to the police station with him to explain the situation to the officers and at least get some compensation for your medical expenses?"

Yan Bugui, lying half-dead on the ground, responded, refusing to fall into Yi Zhonghai's trap.

"Old Yi! I got injured while protecting your pots, pans, tables, and chairs. And Liu Erquan was one of your men. You have to compensate me, both morally and legally!"

"Fine, even if it's my fault, I'll pay. But what about the time you and Liu Haizhong beat up my wife and me the other day, Lao Yan? Shouldn't you pay for that first?"

"I didn't lay a hand on them that day, I was trying to break them up!" Yan Bugui argued, sitting up in anger.

"So, if you're telling me I didn't lay a hand on you today, and I even reported Liu Erquan for hitting you! You could say I got revenge for you! How about we settle things evenly?"

"How can this be reconciled? These are two different things! Anyway, I don't care, if you don't compensate me today, I'm not leaving! I'll call the police if necessary!"

Yan Bugui lay down in anger again, and accidentally used too much force, pulling at the swollen wound on his face and groaning.

He kept groaning inwardly, wondering why he was so unlucky, having been beaten several times in the past two weeks.

Getting beaten up is bad enough, but not getting paid after being beaten up is just ridiculous!

"Suit yourself, go ahead and do it!"

Yi Zhonghai sneered inwardly and ignored him.

Yan Bugui had no intention of compensating him, and he would not compensate Yan Bugui either; he had just said that on purpose.

He knew Yan Bugui's personality well; for Yan Bugui, not gaining an advantage was a loss.

Therefore, his suggestion to equalize the price would undoubtedly make Yan Bugui feel even worse.

It's fine if you're uncomfortable! I'll make you suffer to death! I'll let you bully me with your bangs!

Yi Zhonghai then turned his attention to Jia Zhangshi, this time with a different attitude.

"Sigh! Sister-in-law, look at this mess! I didn't think too much about it at the time. I was just trying to keep Dongxu from suffering in there. Who could have imagined what would happen next! Sigh, if you insist on blaming me, there's nothing I can do. What's done is done. It's good for Dongxu to reform himself in there. You know his personality!"

What do you mean by "even a little reform"? Can't you even speak properly?

Just as Jia Zhangshi was about to curse, Yi Zhonghai changed the subject.

"But this matter is ultimately related to me. How about this, sister-in-law, when Dongxu comes out, I'll take him with me, what do you think? I don't even know if the factory still wants him. Anyway, I'll use my connections to see what happens."

"Uncle Yi, you...you mean you want to take Dongxu as your apprentice?"

Madam Jia's expression shifted, and she could hardly believe her ears.

"Old Yi, didn't you see how badly she beat me up today and then took her son as her apprentice?" Gao Cuilan couldn't help but speak up, looking at Yi Zhonghai as if he were a stranger, not understanding what he was up to.

"Sigh! What can we do? We're neighbors, and Old Jia is leaving, so we should help him out if we can!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Cuilan turned around and went into the inner room in anger.

Yi Zhonghai looked helpless. He wasn't pretending to be addicted, but there were outsiders present, so he couldn't tell the truth.

At this moment, Jia Zhangshi was rubbing her hands excitedly, repeatedly asking Yi Zhonghai if it was true.

Putting aside everything else, Yi Zhonghai's skills are truly excellent; he's one of the top intermediate-level workers in the factory.

When Lao Jia was alive, he said that Yi Zhonghai was a talented person, and it would be a good thing if Dongxu could have him teach him!

The two reached a verbal agreement, and Jia Zhangshi excitedly picked up a broom to help the Yi family clean, throwing cigarette butts and dust all over Yan Bugui.

Jia Zhangshi hadn't forgotten the time when Yan Bugui splashed water on her doorstep, causing her to slip and fall!

Yan Bugui couldn't fathom Yi Zhonghai's style of doing things at all. He couldn't understand why Yi Zhonghai would let the troublemaker Jia Zhangshi go, and why he would let his "ally" who was grabbing vegetables start attacking him in the blink of an eye.
