Life in siheyuan era
#156 - Chapter 156 Making Enemies
Last night, I carefully studied the poison needle, but since I hadn't studied this field, I focused on tracking, assuming there wouldn't be just one needle.
Orange's lack of reaction is understandable; its effective range is one kilometer, and it loses the target beyond that distance.
The target must be placed on a person. Can combining the two enhance tracking ability?
This is a question that needs to be solved.
Thinking about this, Zhou Zhiyuan ran to the entrance of the quadrangle courtyard and saw Yu Li slowly walking out. She stopped and whispered to him, "I'm going to work today. I know people at the non-staple food store. If you need help, look for me at the store."
After saying this, Yu Li slowly walked towards the public toilet.
Zhou Zhiyuan realized that Yu Li came out at this time just to tell him this; going to the toilet was just an excuse.
Understanding this, Zhou Zhiyuan looked around. Yu Li knew his whereabouts, so did the assassin know as well?
After thinking about it, Zhou Zhiyuan rejected this idea. The assassin could escape in the dark, but in broad daylight, he wouldn't even have a chance to run.
The assassin must have investigated before acting, knowing that Zhou Zhiyuan is an invincible martial artist with unmatched agility, a reputation established in the military hospital. He couldn't possibly be without fear.
Zhou Zhiyuan wasn't worried about himself, but about the safety of his parents and Zhou Zhining.
He knew that his parents always went to and from work together, and shopped for groceries together. He also knew that Zhou Zhining liked to be alone, so he had to ask, "Sister Qin, do you and my brother go to and from work together?"
Today was Sunday, but Qin Huairu never slept in. The clothes in the basin were what Zhou Zhiyuan had changed out of in the past two days.
She didn't need Zhou Zhiyuan to heat water for her. Hearing Zhou Zhiyuan's question, she hesitated before replying, "We often walk together."
This was very telling, depending on how Zhou Zhiyuan interpreted it.
Qin Huairu was playing a game of deception. Seeing Zhou Zhiyuan frown, she couldn't help but feel uneasy.
She kept encouraging herself, "Zhou Zhiyuan is just a small shrimp."
But she had to admit that she was really afraid of this "small shrimp." She couldn't compare to Zhou's family. Lin Shurong could scold him whenever she wanted because Zhou Zhiyuan was her son, and she naturally had the right to scold him.
And Zhou Zhining was his brother, growing up together with deep feelings, and also had the right to discipline him. Zhou Zhiyuan was used to being controlled by him.
But she had neither of these rights. The "small shrimp" could bite her, and it could be fatal.
Calming down, Qin Huairu quickly tried to make amends, washing Zhou Zhiyuan's clothes early in the morning to make him appreciate her.
But Zhou Zhiyuan didn't pay attention to the clothes in the basin. He frowned and walked into his room.
"How did I offend him?" Qin Huairu wondered, feeling increasingly uneasy.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiyuan sat on the edge of the kang and nudged Zhou Zhining's shoulder, whispering, "Wake up."
"Leave me alone."
Zhou Zhining muttered, about to turn over, when he heard Zhou Zhiyuan whisper, "Open your eyes and see what this is?"
Curious, Zhou Zhining slightly opened his eyes and saw the black needle, immediately replying, "It should be a poison needle."
Saying "poison needle," Zhou Zhining suddenly sat up and urgently asked, "Where did it come from?"
"Someone tried to assassinate me last night..." Zhou Zhiyuan didn't hide anything from him, and whispered the story.
Finally, he said, "You don't need to worry about my safety. Someone is secretly protecting you and Mom and Dad, but you also need to be vigilant. Walk together with Mom and Dad from now on until the alarm is lifted. Also, be careful to keep it a secret."
Zhou Zhiyuan wouldn't tell his parents about the assassination last night, to avoid worrying them.
But he wouldn't hide it from Zhou Zhining. He was a homebody, but not a cowardly and unwilling to resist.
Zhou Zhining didn't like to cause trouble, but he was definitely not afraid of trouble. His voice was filled with murderous intent, "Get rid of him as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, I will personally wring his neck. I'm not at home, so your parents' safety is in your hands. Try not to contact strangers. If anything happens, ask Grandpa Yi and Shazhu for help. The chief will also arrange for forces to protect you secretly."
Zhou Zhiyuan told him to rest assured, and Zhou Zhining took another look at the poison needle, whispering, "This poison needle should be expensive. Why use it to assassinate you?"
Zhou Zhining saw the problem, and Zhou Zhiyuan replied, "Don't analyze the reason. You need to know one thing: the possibility of the assassin assassinating you and Mom and Dad is not high, but the possibility of using your safety to threaten me is very high. Once you are controlled by him, I can only surrender."
Hearing his analysis, Zhou Zhining understood, sighed, and said, "I was planning to go to Fangshan recently. I won't go until the alarm is lifted."
He said he wanted to go to Fangshan, and Zhou Zhiyuan immediately asked, "Why do you want to go to Fangshan?"
"I've been there before..." Zhou Zhining replied casually, "I heard Old Hua Tou say a few days ago that there is a very beautiful scenery in Fangshan, and I was curious and wanted to see it."
Hearing this, Zhou Zhiyuan immediately became nervous and whispered, "Who is Old Hua Tou? When did he tell you?"
"Old Hua Tou sells used books near the factory. He told me a few days ago, on Monday."
Zhou Zhining replied casually, then asked vigilantly, "Is Old Hua Tou suspicious?"
"Stay away from him, I'll tell you after I investigate."
As he said this, Zhou Zhiyuan heard a commotion from the backyard. He came to the window, opened the curtains, and saw Liu Guangfu running into Grandpa Yi's room, turning back and asking, "What happened?"
Zhou Zhining looked outside and saw Grandpa Yi running out with Liu Guangfu, replying indifferently, "It should be that Grandpa Er was doing morning exercises, and the sandbag was Liu Guangtian."
Hearing his speculation, Zhou Zhiyuan smiled, then took another look and hurriedly closed the curtains, turning around and saying in a panic, "Brother, you're showing too much."
"What are you talking about?" Zhou Zhining replied impatiently, leaning back down.
This was the second full courtyard meeting Zhou Zhiyuan had attended since returning home, and it was the most complete meeting ever.
The weather was getting warmer, and the sun rose in the sky at seven o'clock. Such weather allowed Huaihua to run around the ground, and Wang Daji's wife could also sit next to Wang Da Niang with her child in her arms.
And Shazhu sat on Grandpa San's side. He didn't sit in the middle, but next to Deaf Old Lady, looking at Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e on the opposite side, with a gloating smile on his face.
He Yushui sat behind him, head down, wondering what she was thinking.
At this meeting, Yan Jiefang and Yu Li stood on Grandpa San's side. Yu Li looked at Lou Xiao'e on the opposite side from time to time, and then looked at Yan Jiefang, with an expression of finding the truth from the details.
And Yan Jiefang's head was turning back and forth, looking at Lou Xiao'e, then looking at Grandpa Er, and when he turned around, he could see Zhou Zhiyuan, and he smiled at him slightly.
Seeing him smile at Zhou Zhiyuan, Yu Li turned to look at Zhou Zhiyuan, but saw him frowning at Lou Xiao'e, and then looking at Shazhu.
Seeing his expression, Yu Li had a question in her mind, "What's going on here?"
But Zhou Zhiyuan didn't pay attention to this side. He remembered what Shazhu said last night, "There will be a show to watch tomorrow morning."
Seeing that Lou Xiao'e had an injury on the corner of her mouth, he immediately remembered that plot: Xu Damao got drunk, and Shazhu pulled off his underwear and threw it into the stove pit.
Xu Damao came home this morning, and Lou Xiao'e found that his underwear was missing when he changed his clothes, and immediately broke out a catching affair activity.
The two started fighting. Xu Damao's face was scratched by Lou Xiao'e, and the corner of Lou Xiao'e's mouth was punched out by Xu Damao. Grandpa Er heard the movement and came forward to stop it, sending Liu Guangfu to find Grandpa Yi. There were two themes for the full courtyard meeting.
The first theme was, "Is Xu Damao right to beat his wife?"
Grandpa Yi raised this question, and immediately got a consistent answer, "No."
There was no objection to this question. Even Grandpa Er, who advocated male chauvinism, stated firmly, "Xu Damao must be severely criticized. I have never beaten my wife."
It was fine for him to severely criticize Xu Damao, but he also used himself as an example, which immediately aroused dissatisfaction from the women's world.
Grandma Yi, Grandma San, and Jia Zhangshi curled their lips, and Grandma Er opened her mouth but closed it again.
But Shazhu said slowly, "Since Liu Guangtian can be a sandbag, you don't beat Grandma Er anymore. Then there's Liu Guangfu, two sandbags are enough for you to beat, so you don't have the strength to beat Grandma Er anymore, right?"
As soon as this was said, there was a burst of laughter around, and Deaf Old Lady even had to ask loudly, "What did you say?"
"Old lady..." Shazhu shouted loudly, "I said Grandpa Er doesn't beat Grandma Er because he has Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu."
"That's right." Deaf Old Lady expressed her support loudly.
Hearing the two of them speak, and seeing the embarrassed look on Grandpa Er's face, Zhou Zhiyuan frowned and looked at Shazhu.
Shazhu liked to show off, but such an act of making enemies was really unnecessary.
