Life in siheyuan era

In the early hours of the morning, he had found two blind spots in his own courtyard. He could use them around eleven o'clock at night. He lay prone on the roof of the rear building, continuing to search for blind spots according to this standard.

The characteristic of Beijing's architecture is the courtyard house, and the layout of these courtyard houses is almost the same, only differing in size and width. The characteristic of their layout is that they extend from one courtyard to nine courtyards from south to north, and from single courtyards to multiple courtyards from east to west.

A standard three-courtyard house like this would have its main gate on the southeast side.

And the Anxin Hotel incorporated the two courtyards on the left and right, forming two east-west courtyards, with the gates of those two courtyards tightly closed. Entry and exit relied solely on the already closed main gate of the main courtyard.

Analyzing the surface layout of the Anxin Hotel, there were many ways he could enter. There were three main gates, as well as the front and rear buildings.

But he wouldn't choose any of them. He was there to find the 'item', and the people were just the landmarks.

Sensing that Bai Wenming and Hu Dapeng were asleep in their respective rooms, he carefully checked again, confirmed several blind spots, and then quietly withdrew.

He wasn't in a hurry with this matter, and his idea was simple: to carry out the arrest before they took action.

He had his own selfish motive. His code name, 'Pilgrim', carried a mission. If one of them ran, he would have to chase after them.

He didn't want to tire himself out. Catching them all at once was the best way, so he had to keep an eye on the 'item'. Those revolving around the 'item' were bound to be the core figures or direct subordinates.

And this little selfishness had been seen through by Zhang Limin and Shen Lanbo, who allowed him to start by finding the 'item'.

This situation made Zhou Zhiyuan feel amused. He said that Bai Wenming was a spy and was preparing to use mortars, and Section Chief Luo and Zhang Limin actually believed him, and his reason was just a sentence: 'Based on intuition'.

This intuition was really useful. A sentence of 'intuition' was sent over, and they didn't ask any further.

This state made him feel amused, but also felt pressure in the amusement. 'A scholar dies for his confidant.' These guys put on a look of being his confidants, just to let him die!

Zhou Zhiyuan proceeded cautiously, quickly finding each blind spot to hide in, quickly finding the best route, and after a hundred steps, rushed into the building, ending the infiltration training to enter the target location.

Then he continued to carry out indoor infiltration training, his feet turning into cat steps, walking upstairs silently.

He felt bad when he came to the seventh floor. Han Xue was not at home.

He didn't see Copper General in front of the door on the ninth floor. After a slight hesitation, he gently opened the door and quietly slipped into the room.

Then he quietly closed the door, and immediately listened intently, hearing a slight sound from the bed, he immediately pounced over, grabbing the raised right hand, his little finger pressing against the trigger, his right hand grabbing her left hand...

His movements were completed in one go, and Han Xue, who was firmly controlled, struggled twice and suddenly stopped moving.

And Zhou Zhiyuan didn't have time to consider her reaction, he pricked up his ears to listen to the movement outside, feeling that the figure was listening outside the door for a while, gently opened the door and slipped into the room, quietly took a few steps forward and reached into his arms.

At this time, Zhou Zhiyuan moved, his body instantly rotating half a circle, one foot kicking against the wall, suddenly feeling a hand reaching out from behind to grab his collar.

This grab dissipated most of his rotational momentum, and then he heard a low 'ah' sound, and the hand released, Zhou Zhiyuan fell to the ground with a thud.

In that instant, the figure brushed out the door, disappeared in a flash.

And Zhou Zhiyuan used his hands and feet, and the moment he slid out, his body bounced up, like a black cat darting out the door, and with a second leap, he stepped onto the roof.

Immediately, he saw the figure jump from the eaves, rushed over without hesitation, and then knelt on the edge of the eaves and looked down. He only saw no figure in this space where moonlight and darkness were mottled.

Concentrating his eyesight to search again, he heard a running sound, quickly turned around and hugged the figure and rolled out, and then sat next to Han Xue and whispered: 'He ran away.'

And Han Xue was still panting rapidly, and after a while, she asked coldly: 'Did he fly away with wings?'

She lay still, as if she had suddenly lost her strength.

This reaction was normal. Han Xue, who was chasing at high speed, almost rushed out of the eaves. Zhou Zhiyuan was like that when he chased the black cat, and was shocked at the time.

He understood Han Xue's reaction and replied in a low voice: 'Not wings, but a cloak, but suddenly disappeared...'

Speaking of this, he paused, grabbed Han Xue's hand and pulled her up, dragged her down the stairs, stood on one side of the corridor and closed his eyes slightly, then took her hand and walked into the small room, let her sit on the bed, and sat on the chair and said in a low voice: 'It's strange, Gu Chengliang is not at home.'

Han Xue was stunned for a moment and then asked: 'How do you know?'

'Intuition.'

'Nonsense.'

'It's intuition, you have to believe it.'

'I don't believe it.'

'Okay, let's talk about Gu Chengliang, when did you meet him?'

Zhou Zhiyuan changed the subject, Han Xue pondered for a while and replied in a low voice: 'Last October, we took the elevator together. At that time, I was wearing a police uniform, and he asked me...'

Speaking of this, Han Xue paused and continued: 'He was very strange, every time we met, he would just say one sentence,

or

.'

'And every time we met at the elevator entrance. After greeting each other for a few months, one time, when we were standing in front of the elevator, he said to me in a low voice:

'

'At that time, I refused. Later, he mentioned it several times, but I refused. Until I met him last Saturday, he brought it up again. Remembering your arrangement, I agreed.'

'We ate together on Sunday night. He talked about making a movie. Li Bo and I told him about some simple cases of the Public Security Bureau. We had a very pleasant conversation until the restaurant closed and we left. When we walked out of the restaurant door, he said he was going back to the dormitory, and we separated.'

After listening to Han Xue's words, Zhou Zhiyuan pondered for a while and said in a low voice: 'Gu Chengliang is a screenwriter and works in a film studio. There are clouds of beauties there. He shouldn't just say two sentences when he sees you.'

'You don't believe me?' Han Xue's tone was angry.

Zhou Zhiyuan hurriedly said: 'It's not that I don't believe you, but that he's abnormal. Let's analyze the purpose of approaching you.'

'Beauty should be one aspect...' Speaking of this, Zhou Zhiyuan was kicked on the leg and immediately said: 'Don't kick around.'

'Shen Lanyin can kick around?'

Zhou Zhiyuan immediately said: 'Concentrate on analyzing the problem...'

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, and then said: 'It's right under our noses! Arrange your time for tomorrow and take me to your house when your parents are not at home.'

'What do you want to do?'

Han Xue's tone stunned Zhou Zhiyuan for a moment, and then he reacted and said angrily: 'I am a gentleman, what can I do to you?'

'What did you just do to me?'

'If I didn't do that, you would have fired the gun, and that guy outside wouldn't have shown up either. Please understand the emergency.'

'I don't understand.'

'I apologize.'

Han Xue sighed softly and then asked: 'What do you want to do?'

She dismissed her suspicion, and her tone at this time was right.

And Zhou Zhiyuan replied in a low voice: 'I thought of a possibility, that thing is in your house.'

Han Xue actually accepted this deduction, pondered for a while and said: 'I have also looked for it at home. It's good for you to help me find it. Wait for me downstairs at twelve o'clock tomorrow.'

The two reached a consensus on this matter, and then they had to solve the immediate matter. Zhou Zhiyuan said in a low voice: 'I'll take you home.'

Han Xue opposed, 'I sneaked out while my parents were asleep, I can't go back now, you go.'

'There is still a threat here, I can't leave you behind.'

Zhou Zhiyuan whispered, and then said: 'Go to bed, I'll sleep in the chair.'

And Han Xue suddenly asked: 'Can you see me?'

'No, it's pitch black in front of me.'

He denied it, but Han Xue didn't believe it, and asked coldly: 'Since you can't see, how do you know I took out the gun?'

Zhou Zhiyuan explained: 'You made a sound when you took out the gun.'

'Good reason, determining the position by hearing, accurately using the little finger to press against the trigger, and accurately grabbing my right hand...'

Speaking of this, she paused, and then said coldly: 'These actions were completed at the same time, in one go without any procrastination, you said you didn't see it?'

'I said it, this is intuition, you must believe it.'

'Never believe it.'

'Okay, I'll cover my eyes.'

'Good idea.'

With the words spoken to this point, Zhou Zhiyuan could only take practical action, got up and took off his coat and put it on his head.

Then he heard Han Xue getting up and immediately said: 'Gentleman...'

He misspoke again, and reacted in time. Han Xue was not a gentleman but a woman. Just as he was about to correct himself, he heard a sound from his head.

This was the sound of a slap coming down. Fortunately, Zhou Zhiyuan's intuition was strong enough, and he raised his hand to grab the hand.

'You see, this is intuition.' Zhou Zhiyuan explained, reaching out his other hand to grab Han Xue's left hand.

Then the two froze at the same time, and Han Xue immediately held this right hand tightly, she caught Zhou Zhiyuan's weakness.
