Courtyard House: My System - Artificial Human

"I'm innocent, comrade! The reason I was so sure Comrade Lin Weidong would be assassinated was because the secret telegrams sent by the Guodang were usually sent out in multiple copies to different people at once. Whoever completed the mission would receive the mission reward and supplies. That's why I was certain that even if it wasn't me, someone else would have tried to assassinate him."

"This is also my leverage in preparing to confront Comrade Lin Weidong. I plan to be frank with him and secretly protect my apprentices; they are quite skilled..."

Chen Yang's confession was heavily influenced by his personal interests, and although the interrogation team recorded everything, they only believed about 50% of it.

However, once their identity is confirmed, it is still easy to find out whether they have carried out any sabotage activities.

The key point is that few people know his identity, and his superior is dead, which means there's a lot of room for manipulation. By taking control of him, we can uncover many hidden individuals.

These two points are the main basis for calculating merits and demerits when dealing with enemy agents.

"Chen Yang, considering your plan to protect Comrade Lin Weidong and your strong tendency to align yourself with the good guys, we will apply to the organization to have you listed as a person who surrendered himself. Now, please continue to speak frankly. Let me ask you..."

With the promises made by the municipal bureau leaders in the interrogation room, Chen Yang's anxious heart finally eased.

When asked about the identities or characteristics of other hidden personnel, Chen Yang answered all questions without reservation, revealing everything about the business.

The police officers were not surprised by his decisiveness; in the past year or so, far more enemy agents had surrendered than had been captured.

Most of them were low-level operatives, and very few were like Chen Yang, who had a mid-level position in the radio station. Chen Yang had the courage to turn himself in.

Either he was truly loyal to Liu Bei while serving Cao Cao, or he was confident that his past actions would not be discovered.

Overall, Chen Yang's confession can help the police uncover more hidden enemy agents, and if planned well, it can even cause significant losses to the enemy!

Lin Weidong didn't care about what happened to Chen Yang; his fate was sealed the moment he decided to scheme against him.

Even if he wasn't originally an enemy agent, he must be today.

Chen Yang's role was fully demonstrated the moment he decided to confess: providing intelligence to the organization and adding weight to his own achievements.

After that, whether he lives or dies, Lin Weidong will not care. He has plenty of people under his command who are 100% loyal and obey orders, so why would he use an enemy agent?

Ultimately, Chen Yang was just a man with a bit of cleverness, but whose thinking was still stuck in the old era. His idea of ​​surrendering for a better future was too simplistic and overestimated his own abilities.

For Lin Weidong, his identity was a stain and a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment.

Anyone with a clear head today would make the same choice as Lin Weidong.

Chen Yang's interrogation is ongoing.

Lin Weidong was being reprimanded by the municipal bureau leaders who had rushed to the scene.

Besides him, Bai Ling, as the frontline interrogation leader, was also reprimanded.

Of course, while the reprimand is a reprimand, the merits that should be recorded will not be diminished. On the contrary, the reprimands and education from the individual level will not erase their original aspirations and ambitions to sacrifice their lives for the organization.

This is a rare and invaluable spirit of fearlessness, precisely the kind of self-sacrifice that organizations need.

Around 8 o'clock, the work was mostly finished.

Lin Weidong, Bai Ling, and Jin Lu left the police station and went home.

In the courtyard house.

Liu Haizhong was dragged out of his home by police officers under the pretext of helping enemy agents pass on messages.

This time it was different; two police officers came and went in to arrest people directly.

The courtyard was eerily quiet; everyone peered out through the cracks in the windows and curtains, too afraid to venture out and join the commotion.

Liu Haizhong was completely dumbfounded! That old charlatan was an enemy spy?! You son of a bitch!

His once strong legs were shaking violently, and he kept shouting that he didn't know and it wasn't intentional.

In fact, the police knew that Liu Haizhong was unaware of the other party's identity and background. Under such circumstances, as long as it did not involve classified information and did not cause serious consequences, they would generally not convict him, but would only issue a verbal warning and focus on education.

However, the situation regarding bangs is different from the regulations.

Chen Yang confessed that in order to get Liu Haizhong to act as an intermediary and pass on messages, he promised to help Liu Haizhong secure a position as the team leader afterward.

This would raise suspicions of a transaction, especially since Lin Weidong was determined to make him suffer.

So no matter how Liu Haizhong tried to argue, he was still taken to the police station.

As soon as he stepped out of the gate and saw Lin Weidong and his group walking towards him, Liu Haizhong immediately called for help.

"Wei Dong! Wei Dong! You're alright, that's great! Quickly tell the police I've been framed! Officer Jin! You know how it is, I, Old Liu, don't have the guts! I really didn't know that bastard was an enemy spy!"

"Master Liu! What can I say to you? Even if the other party isn't an enemy agent, you can't use Comrade Lin Weidong's information as a bargaining chip! Even if the other party isn't an enemy agent, what if they're a swindler, a bad person, trying to harm Comrade Lin Weidong? Have you considered the consequences? Don't you understand where you went wrong?"

After Jin Lu finished his training, Lin Weidong sighed and patted Liu Haizhong on the shoulder.

"Old Liu! Have you forgotten what I told you? If a stranger asks you about things in the compound, about the residents, and hesitates to say anything, even if they're not a spy, they're a bad person with ulterior motives!"

Liu Haizhong opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

He did say that, but he didn't think that much about it at the time!

"Alright, Lao Liu, go ahead and relax. Just like Dongxu, reform yourself well. When you get out, the prison will still accept you."

At this point, Liu Haizhong couldn't listen to any words of comfort; what he needed was for Lin Weidong to speak up and rescue him!

Neither Lin Weidong nor Jin Lu offered any help, so no matter how much he complained, it was to no avail. He was taken to the police station by the police.

I'm getting two weeks of education and labor reform, with daily tasks like shoveling snow and cleaning outhouses...

Upon hearing this, Liu Haizhong immediately fainted on the spot.

Fifteen days!? If he goes out like this, it's uncertain whether he'll even keep his job, let alone his position as team leader.

The factory was already very dissatisfied with him and Yi Zhonghai after their last arrest.

His fainting spell did not change the decision; in fact, some people thought it was too lenient.

Back then, the bureau leaders had seen how much they cared for Lin Weidong. Even though Liu Haizhong's mistake was unintentional, it almost caused Lin Weidong to suffer a terrible fate.

Making him clean for only half a month is too lenient!

Labor camp.

Like everyone else, Jia Dongxu, after a busy day of tasks, sat upright in his dormitory listening to the educational speech.

They were only allowed to eat after half an hour of education.

Faced with the hardened and cold cornbread and half a bowl of thin soup noodles, Jia Dongxu swallowed it without any hesitation, showing none of the affectation he had when he first came in.

After dinner and washing the dishes, everyone dragged their tired bodies into the cold bed.

Jia Dongxu's situation is slightly better than others.

Two days ago, after Jia Zhangshi went out, she not only brought him a thick quilt, but also told him that Yi Zhonghai would take him as his apprentice after he left.

This was truly great news, and Jia Dongxu eagerly awaited it, counting down the days until it was over.
