Chapter 343 She Runs, It Chases
"Where is Aunt Jiu?" Lin Xiangnan stretched his neck to look inside.
"She's recording her statement." Hu Meili said helplessly, "I just heard from the neighbors that she was in the Public Security Bureau, so I just rushed over."
"Why didn't anyone remind me?" Lin Xiangnan frowned and looked at Hu Meili strangely, "Mom, your popularity on this street has become so bad?"
Lin Xiangnan is busy with work and study, and his relationship with his neighbors mainly depends on Hu Meili, the middleman.
If Hu Meili did well, she would be close to many people. If Hu Meili did not do well, Lin Xiangnan would be alone. She and those old men and women did not have much in common.
"How dare you say that! It's still your fault!" Hu Meili said with a headache: "After this incident, many people will definitely stop playing with me."
"You're still relying on me. You like this company more than I do." Lin Xiangnan and Gu Zhenhua have good job benefits, but the nature of their jobs is very special. There's nothing they can do about it. It's not easy to get high salaries.
In the past, when Hu Meili chatted with her neighbors, many people didn't take Lin Xiangnan's work seriously. This street is outside the school, and there are many cultural people coming and going. There are several large courtyards on the next street, and they are all scientific researchers.
Although the neighbors themselves are not talented in this area, they have seen a lot, and they know that she has no bad intentions and that her interactions with Hu Meili are normal.
Previously, Lin Xiangnan's home was robbed and the police severely punished Feng Zhaodi, who was detained for three months, which made everyone suddenly nervous. Now Feng Zhaodi was interrogated by the police because of suspicion of being a spy.
This forces everyone to face up to a problem, that is, gossip about Lin Xiangnan cannot be talked about.
Especially the gossip about Lin Xiangnan’s work, which could not even be mentioned.
Aunt Jiu had this attitude when facing the police, "Why ask about my Xiaolin's job when there are so many other things to ask? She must be up to something."
Feng Zhaodi also complained, "I am really wronged. I just asked casually. Public Security comrades, you know the grudge between me and Comrade Lin Xiangnan. She caused me to go to prison and do labor reform. It's not too much for me to go home and inquire about her situation."
Everyone on the street knew about the feud between the two families. Even if Feng Zhaodi asked Hu Meili, Hu Meili, who knew what she was thinking, would only spit at her and would not treat her as a spy.
Who told her to meet Aunt Jiu? Aunt Jiu had just arrived and didn't know her. She thought she looked suspicious, so she took her to the police station.
After so many years and so many losses, Aunt Jiu knew that she was stupid, so she simply stopped thinking and just listened to the advice of smart people. She used to listen to men, but now she listens to Hu Meili. Hu Meili asked her to guard against spies, and she took it seriously.
When facing the police, Aunt Jiu spoke in simple terms, but described Feng Zhaodi as sneaky and bewildered, making her look like a traitor, and she kept saying "arrest her quickly".
But no matter what she said, the police still released the man.
"Why? She doesn't look like a good person. Didn't you tell me that she has a criminal record?" Aunt Jiu was a little unconvinced.
The police calmly explained, "She was just released yesterday. From yesterday to today, she has not had any contact with outsiders."
The time was so tight that even if Feng Zhaodi had this idea, she would not have the opportunity to contact the spy.
After hearing this explanation, Aunt Jiu reluctantly accepted it and said, "Then you, Public Security Comrade, must educate her properly. Tell her to stop asking around."
"Don't worry, we will warn you about this." The police were somewhat helpless, but still praised: "As a family member, it is very commendable to have such vigilance. Next time you encounter a suspicious person, remember to send him to the police station."
Residents’ safety awareness needs to be cultivated.
The capital is no different from other places. There are more spies in it than in small places. In the past, the areas around scientific research institutions and military bases were key areas of concern. Now that colleges and universities have begun to recruit students again, the security level has also been raised.
It was dinner time now. After all the hassles at the Public Security Bureau, it was a little late to go home and cook. Lin Xiangnan suggested, "Let's go to the state-owned restaurant to eat."
Aunt Jiu was a little embarrassed, "It's my fault. I delayed the cooking."
"Why should I blame you? You did a good job today." Hu Meili comforted.
They were talking when Feng Zhaodi passed by them without looking at them. If it wasn't for the need to look at the road, she would have turned her head away, as if Lin Xiangnan was some dirty thing that she didn't want to have anything to do with.
In fact, when Feng Zhaodi heard Lin Xiangnan say that he was going to eat at a restaurant, she calculated in her mind the meat coupons, grain coupons and money that would be needed. In addition to occasionally eating out, the smell of meat often wafted from Lin Xiangnan's house... Their family's meat coupons were definitely not enough, and they would definitely exchange them with colleagues. Just eating meat, Lin Xiangnan's family would have to spend a lot of money every month...
But she suppressed her inner desire to gossip and did not dare to ask.
I've been cheated twice, and if it happens again it will be the third time. I should learn my lesson.
When she walked in front of Lin Xiangnan and the others, Feng Zhaodi snorted heavily, cursed "bitch" in a low voice, and then ran away.
Aunt Jiu looked up at Hu Meili, asking what to do.
"Let's go home after dinner and scold her." Hu Meili gritted her teeth and said disdainfully, "She has been to the Public Security Bureau so many times, but she hasn't learned her lesson. I'll scold her to death when I get home..."
Before Hu Meili finished her words, Lin Xiangnan patted Wuyun's butt and said, "Go after her and scare her, but don't really bite her."
In this family, Lin Xiangnan is the richest, the most generous, and the most willing to prepare food for Wuyun. What she says is so effective.
As soon as Lin Xiangnan finished speaking, Wuyun rushed out with a whoosh, so agile that he didn't look like a retired military dog.
As soon as Wuyun appeared, Hu Meili could no longer continue her heroic words. It would be better to go back and take revenge than to get it back on the spot. She changed the subject and immediately cheered for Wuyun.
"Dark Cloud, go ahead!!! Bite her ass!!!"
Feng Zhaodi heard the sound and turned back alertly. Seeing Wu Yun chasing her, her heart almost stopped beating. She started running wildly, shouting: "Get out! You damn dog!"
Two legs are not as fast as four legs. In the blink of an eye, dark clouds appeared behind Feng Zhaodi.
When he was about to catch up with Feng Zhaodi, Wuyun started to show his teeth. It was difficult for his sharp canine teeth to blow her head off, but he could definitely bite through her calf. It was very intimidating.
When its upper and lower teeth touched, it only bit Feng Zhaodi's trouser leg and didn't bite any flesh, but it still scared Feng Zhaodi enough.
After the bite, the black cloud slowed down again. When Feng Zhaodi ran forward for a while, it sped up again and bit her right leg.
Lin Xiangnan took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and commented: "She ran away, it chased her, she couldn't escape even if she had wings."
