Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath to calm himself down before frowning and looking at Lin Yang, saying, "Yangzi! What exactly is going on here?"
Anyway.
Like Sha Zhu, Jia Dongxu was on his list of people to consider for retirement.
Now that he's in trouble, I still need to help him.
Furthermore, even if Yi Zhonghai wanted to maintain his reputation for being helpful within the courtyard, he couldn't abandon Jia Dongxu.
“I don’t know the specifics either!” Lin Yang shook his head slightly and said, “I only know that Jia Dongxu was arrested for gambling last night. Afterwards, the people from Nanluo Police Station asked our security department to pick him up, but when we got there we found out that Jia Dongxu seemed to have other things to do, so he was kept in the detention room again.”
"What a mess!" Yi Zhonghai scratched his head and frowned. "So, it's very likely that Dongxu has other problems besides gambling?"
"I don't know about that. Why don't you go back and ask Jia Zhangshi, Uncle? Maybe she knows!" Lin Yang subtly suggested to Yi Zhonghai.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
After drinking the water from the glass next to him, Yi Zhonghai said to the worker beside him, "Old Qiu, when the foreman comes later, please ask for leave for me so I can go back home!"
Then he looked at Lin Yang and said, "Yangzi, I'm going back to find Jia Zhangshi and see if Dongxu is hiding anything!"
After saying that, he hurriedly walked out of the workshop.
After Yi Zhonghai left, Lin Yang also prepared to leave the workshop.
But at that moment, a man with a long face and a mole on his chin suddenly jumped out.
"Yangzi, Yangzi! Come on, let's go out for a smoke!"
Upon seeing that the man who had stopped him was Xu Damao from the backyard, Lin Yang let out a cold laugh.
He hadn't even had a chance to settle accounts with this guy when he suddenly appeared on his own.
The death of the previous body was partly due to the stupid Zhu, and this guy is responsible for the other half.
If it weren't for Xu Damao fanning the flames and exaggerating what he overheard, he wouldn't have been able to tell Sha Zhu what he had overheard.
Sha Zhu wouldn't hit his predecessor on his way to work.
However, he was now a little curious about why Xu Damao wanted to see him.
In his memory, he was only slightly closer to Lou Xiao'e, and his relationship with Xu Damao was merely a nodding acquaintance.
This was evident during the meeting last night.
After taking the peony cigarette from Xu Damao, Lin Yang lit it with his back turned and smoked without saying a word.
He wasn't in a hurry anyway, since it was Xu Damao who would contact him.
Seeing Lin Yang smoking, Xu Damao couldn't sit still any longer.
He has a guilty conscience!
Because I just mentioned the bicycle parts to Jia Dongxu yesterday.
When they arrived at the steel rolling mill early in the morning, they heard that Jia Dongxu had not come to work.
He was so frightened that his face turned pale, thinking that his business of getting bicycle parts from Jia Dongxu had been discovered.
He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
He had been staying in Jia Dongxu's workshop since morning, trying to find out what was going on.
Xu Damao hadn't found out anything by the afternoon, and his pack of cigarettes was almost gone.
When Lin Yang arrived at Workshop 1, he originally intended to go up and ask about Jia Dongxu.
Security guards generally know more than ordinary workers.
But when he saw Yi Zhonghai had already stepped forward to ask questions, Xu Damao pricked up his ears to listen.
When he heard Lin Yang say that Jia Dongxu had been arrested for gambling, he let out a heavy sigh of relief.
The huge weight on my heart was finally lifted.
He then proceeded to curse Jia Dongxu, that gambler, relentlessly, saying that he was almost starving but still wanted to gamble, causing Jia Dongxu to live in constant fear.
But when he heard Lin Yang say that Jia Dongxu seemed to have other matters to attend to and would continue to be kept in the detention room, his heart jumped again.
In order to find out the situation, he called Lin Yang over, wanting to continue to inquire about the details.
"Yangzi, what mistake did Jia Dongxu make?" Xu Damao said, frowning as he smoked, "Gambling isn't a big deal, is it? Why can't your security department bring him back?"
"How would I know? Maybe Jia Dongxu has other things going on besides gambling!" Lin Yang shrugged.
"Anything else?" Xu Damao suppressed his worry and pretended to be nonchalant, saying, "That Jia Dongxu, what could he possibly do wrong? Your security department is well-informed, haven't you heard a thing?"
Lin Yang immediately sensed that something was off about Xu Damao, as he had never noticed Xu Damao being so caring towards others before.
Could this kid be involved in some illegal scheme with Jia Dongxu?
Thinking of this, he glanced at Xu Damao: "How would I know? Besides, even if I knew, I couldn't tell you. Don't you understand confidentiality regulations?"
As he spoke, Lin Yang threw down his cigarette butt, crushed it with his foot, and said seriously to Xu Damao, "Something's not right, Xu Damao, are you hiding something from me? I'll tell you, if you confess, you'll be treated leniently, and if you resist, you'll be punished severely. If you have something to say, tell me honestly, and I might be able to help you!"
Although that's what he said, Lin Yang knew that what he actually meant was to try his best to make this matter bigger so that he could get you arrested.
That way, I can cause as much trouble as I want and ride the big moth.
Xu Damao dared not tell anyone that he had been threatened to hire Jia Dongxu to make bicycle parts.
He quickly waved his hand and said, "What could I possibly be hiding from you? I'm just concerned about the neighbors!"
As he spoke, he tossed aside his cigarette, stubbed it out, and said to Lin Yang, "By the way, Yangzi, I have something to do, so I'll be going now!"
Without waiting for Lin Yang to speak, he turned and left.
"This guy's definitely in trouble! And it's serious!"
Although Lin Yang wasn't a policeman, any normal person could tell that Xu Damao was hiding something.
But he didn't care.
There is ample time.
He first tried to gain the upper hand over Yi Zhonghai and the Jia family.
As for Xu Damao, as long as he doesn't provoke me first, I won't bother with him for now.
Otherwise, a modern, low-budget version of Ximen Qing would be easy for me to control.
When Lin Yang walked back to the security building from Workshop 1 to slack off...
Yi Zhonghai finally arrived at the courtyard house.
Ignoring the several elderly women in the courtyard who greeted him, he hurriedly ran to the central courtyard.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Qin Huairu standing by the sink washing clothes.
"Uncle, why are you back at this hour? Look at you, all sweaty! What happened?"
Qin Huairu put down the clothes in her hand and stared at Yi Zhonghai with a hint of doubt.
She still respected Yi Zhonghai, this old man, not only because he was Jia Dongxu's mentor.
Also, when dealing with various matters in the courtyard, he would always say things like, "It's not easy for orphans and widows to be favored by the Jia family."
With his mind preoccupied with other matters, Yi Zhonghai, panting, said to Qin Huairu, "Call your mother..."
