Lin Xiaoya looked at Fang Hui, seemingly trying to determine whether he was just giving her a perfunctory answer.

How do I know you won't change your mind later?

"What's the point if you only give me the house decades later?"

"You need to give me a specific timeframe."

"And once I tell you Li Xiang's location, I won't be able to stay in the Li family anymore."

"Where did I live before you gave me a house?"

Lin Xiaoya asked one question after another, and it was clear that she had indeed thought it through carefully.

Fang Hui assured Lin Xiaoya, "We can't guarantee when we can give you the house."

"But I promise you, at the latest within two months, I will definitely find a house for you within two months."

"Until I find you a place to live, can you stay at my place for now?"

Although Fang Hui gave Lin Xiaoya a guarantee, she didn't know Fang Hui!

Therefore, Lin Xiaoya did not particularly believe Fang Hui's assurances.

How do I know if you're lying to me?

Huang Qinqin stepped forward to vouch for him: "He won't lie to you."

"Director Fang is the director of the Revolutionary Committee. If you are still not at ease, I can sign the agreement."

“If you’re not afraid of Li Xiang’s parents causing you trouble, you can stay at our house until we find you a place to live.”

Lin Xiaoya imagined the scene and couldn't help but shudder.

"No need. Since you've said so, I'll trust you."

"I'll stay at Director Fang's house until I find a place to live."

After reaching an agreement, they quickly signed the agreement and then had Lin Xiaoya take them there.

......

Because they were afraid that the scene would be too chaotic and Huang Qinqin might be accidentally injured.

They didn't let anyone else come along; only Fang Hui and Xu Weiguo went out with Lin Xiaoya.

Then came the brothers from the Revolutionary Committee and the Public Security Bureau that they brought with them.

Huang Qinqin originally wanted Xu Junhui to come and help as well, but Xu Weiguo felt that Li Xiang's parents were still at home.

It's safer to have a man at home.

So Xu Junhui was kept on.

Lin Xiaoya led Fang Hui and the others through a maze of turns until they reached a cluster of tiled houses, where they stopped.

Lin Xiaoya pointed to a house about a hundred meters ahead and said, "That biggest tile-roofed house is where Li Xiang has been going recently."

“I know the people who live there. There’s one named Sister Zhu and another named Brother Man.”

"I don't know anything else. I just come here occasionally to deliver things to Li Xiang."

"I found out that Li Xiang wanted to take Dundun away by accident."

After confirming the location, Fang Hui had someone bring Lin Xiaoya back to the Revolutionary Committee first.

So that they won't have to arrange for someone to take care of Lin Xiaoya later.

Xu Weiguo and Fang Hui looked at the house in front of them and could vaguely make out that there were many people guarding it.

As they were discussing how to sneak in, a large plume of thick smoke suddenly appeared ahead.

Then people started shouting repeatedly, "Fire!"

"Help! There's a fire!!!"

As the fire grew larger and the smoke thicker, Xu Weiguo and his team couldn't make out where the fire had started.

However, Fang Hui and Xu Weiguo both had a vague feeling that the house that caught fire was the one Lin Xiaoya had just pointed out.

"Go quickly and notify the fire brigade to come and put out the fire!"

"The rest of you, come with me, let's evacuate the crowd first!"

Whether it was based on the instincts of a veteran or out of concern for the safety of Dun Dun and Nuo Nuo.

Fang Hui and Xu Weiguo both hoped to rescue as many people as possible and put out the fire.

They went to the nearest house and took off one of their clothes.

After wetting it with water, I tied it to my face, trying to cover my mouth and nose as much as possible.

Then Fang Hui and Xu Weiguo led the charge into the fire.

Those who came with Xu Weiguo rushed in without hesitation.

However, a large portion of the people who came with Fang Hui hesitated.

The remaining members of the Revolutionary Committee looked at each other, unsure of what to do, as they did not want to risk going in with Fang Hui.

To be honest, they wanted to leave as soon as Lin Xiaoya mentioned that Brother Man lived in this place.

Although they had never had direct contact with Brother Man, they all knew that Brother Man was the boss of the black market.

Because they often secretly kept some of the capitalists' belongings during raids.

Then find an opportunity to make a move.

But these things are inherently illicit, so they have no choice but to sell them on the black market.

Therefore, knowing who Brother Man is, they don't want to get involved.

"We weren't supposed to be at work today. Actually, we've already done more than enough by helping Director Fang arrest people."

After the first person said they wouldn't go, they automatically found excuses for themselves and started saying the same thing.

"Yes, we have elderly parents to support and young children to raise, so we can't afford any mishaps."

"Yes, and the fire is so big that even if we go in, we won't be able to help much."

"You agree, right? Hehe."

"Yes, I think you have a point."

"Then let's wait here for Director Fang and the others to come out. Maybe we can help them, right?"

Shortly after Fang Hui rushed into the fire, he discovered that none of the people he had brought with him had followed him.

Although he understood that this was not their job.

Moreover, Fang Hui himself knew that his men, though seemingly very obedient to him, were actually quite subservient.

But this is all because they are afraid of losing their jobs and thus losing a lucrative position if they offend them.

However, upon seeing Xu Weiguo's brothers behind him, they all rushed in without hesitation to rescue him.

Fang Hui felt a mix of emotions.

As Xu Weiguo continued running, he noticed that Fang Hui's pace had slowed down.

He glanced back briefly and found that Fang Hui was all alone.

Furthermore, Fang Hui's gaze towards him and his brothers was filled with desolation.

Seeing this, Xu Weiguo not only failed to comfort Fang Hui, but even cursed at him, saying, "What are you grieving for!"

"Don't you even know what time it is? Is this the first day you've met your subordinates?"

"Hurry, saving lives is the priority! Dundun and Nuonuo are still waiting for us inside!"

Fang Hui quickly rubbed his face to stop himself from overthinking.

"They're here!"

As they walked along, they would help any elderly people or children they saw nearby.

The closer they got to the gang leader's house, the bigger the fire became, and the more uncomfortable they became.

Xu Weiguo said to his other brothers, "Don't go any further!"

"I order you to return immediately and help the elderly, women, and children in the vicinity get out!"

"Director Xu! We're leaving, what about you?!"
