"Okay, whatever you say." Su Ti smiled. Who said her man was naive? Look, isn't he clever?
Regardless of the reason, Shanghai should be counted as one case, and Beijing should also be counted as one case.
She wanted to see if they were in a hurry; if they remained indifferent, then there was no point in them going back.
Suti was thinking about her grandfather's situation when the captain arrived with the police officers.
The Minister of Public Security also accompanied them this time.
"Su, you must quickly tell the police what happened back then, and make sure they arrest those people as soon as possible!"
The captain led his men directly to Suti's house, and he explained the whole story along the way.
Someone came to their brigade and injured people. They knew their brigade had a good harvest this year and were envious, so they wanted to come and rob their brigade.
When they arrived with their men, they saw blood everywhere on the ground; the scene was terrifying. They also learned that those men had injured members of their entire team.
Several police officers felt the matter was very serious, especially the Minister of Public Security, who rushed over upon hearing that it involved the Yangliu Brigade.
A few days ago, they were suddenly assigned a task to protect a comrade named Wei Baichuan from the Yangliu Brigade.
He wasn't sure what the man did, but he had to obey orders.
The Ministry of Public Security hasn't even taken any action yet, and the Yangliu Brigade has already run into trouble. What exactly happened?
After listening to the captain's account all the way, he felt he had to report back and request that more manpower be sent over, as this matter was very serious.
Seeing the captain's flustered appearance, Suti was unsure what he had told them; she had made it all up.
If I say something wrong in the middle, I'll be contradicting myself.
"It's what the captain was talking about." Suti's face was full of panic, as if he hadn't yet recovered from the chaos just now.
Several police officers glanced at Wei Baichuan and could only see the bruises on his face, guessing that he must have many injuries on his body as well.
I just don't know where the blood came from, or if anyone else was injured.
"Comrade, I'd like to ask where the family surnamed Wei in your brigade lives?" The Minister of Public Security was now more worried about something happening to the person they were supposed to protect.
“Many people in our brigade are surnamed Wei, and this injured man is surnamed Wei.” The brigade leader’s mind was now filled with thoughts of which brigade those people belonged to.
I didn't even pay attention to what he asked, and just gave a casual reply.
"What's this comrade's name?" The Minister of Public Security's eyelids twitched.
"His name is Wei Baichuan, comrade. Are you looking for someone?" The captain then looked up at the man.
Why is he asking these questions? The most important thing right now is to find someone quickly!
"..." Just when he feared it, the Minister of Public Security closed his eyes with difficulty. The task they were supposed to protect had just been assigned when the person he was supposed to protect was injured.
How should he explain this to his superiors?
"It's nothing. I just heard about your brigade's situation last time. I think the person's surname is Wei." The Minister of Public Security had also heard a bit about the uproar that had been going on for a while.
The captain was even more embarrassed upon hearing this, as his brigade had been plagued by a series of bad things lately.
When the people in the mountains heard that he had been sentenced to labor camp, their children, though not charged with hooliganism, were still born.
However, they took advantage of the brigade's resources, kept hunting rifles privately, and traded their hunted game on the black market instead of handing it over. In the end, they were also transferred to other places.
Since Wei Changgen had broken away from that family and was now registered under the Wei family's household registration in Yangliu Brigade, and had already been sent down to a labor camp, the matter was no longer pursued.
But the team was not convinced by these things, and everyone was holding back their anger.
Knowing that the Wei family seems to have some relatives in Beijing, they are suppressing their anger for now. Once things calm down, they will expel those people from the Wei family from the group.
We can't let them ruin the brigade's reputation any further. Look, even the Minister of Public Security has heard about it. No wonder their brigade is being targeted.
Is there anyone in the commune more famous than their brigade? The people in the brigade added another note to Wei Changgen's family.
Several comrades from the Ministry of Public Security were taken to the scene by the captain. Looking at the bloodstains, they guessed that Wei Baichuan might be seriously injured.
This matter also needs to be reported to the higher-ups.
"Officer, could we go to the commune with you later? We forgot something there and were planning to go get it tomorrow, but now that things are like this, we don't plan to go out for the next few days."
Suti saw that it was still early, so she decided to call her grandfather first, knowing that those people wouldn't come looking for her again so soon.
With the police officers protecting us, we felt much safer on the way.
"Alright, then you can come with us. We'll find the person as soon as possible. Stay in the brigade for the next two days and don't go anywhere else."
The Minister of Public Security nodded in agreement; he was even more concerned about their safety than they were themselves.
If he weren't afraid of exposing something, he would have wanted someone to guard their door.
Suti and his group went to the commune with the people from the Ministry of Public Security, and then they split up.
"Let's call Grandpa first." Su Ti went directly to the post office with Wei Baichuan.
Wei Baichuan carefully observed his surroundings along the way, making sure no one was following them, before he and his wife went to the post office phone booth.
Upon seeing Suti, the person on the other end of the phone booth didn't even lift an eyelid. These two came every few days, and the phone bills seemed to be free.
That's incredibly wasteful. If it's anything important, just buy a ticket and go there.
"Grandpa?" Su Ti asked hurriedly after answering the phone.
"My dear granddaughter." Commander Guo guessed that his granddaughter would call him in the next couple of days, and the old marshal must have gone to look for her.
"Grandpa, we've run into some trouble lately. Is something wrong at home?" Suti didn't mention what had happened that day.
Everyone is the same; they only report good news and not bad news, otherwise, given her grandfather's personality, he would definitely be worried.
"What trouble have you encountered? Nothing seems to have happened at home," Commander Guo asked anxiously upon hearing his granddaughter's words.
The old marshal's words last time had awakened him; he knew that simply running away was the most useless approach.
During this period, he discussed it with his son-in-law, and they wanted to take a different path. His son-in-law could have been in a high position.
Because he didn't want to be targeted by those people, he only became the director of a state-owned factory. His daughter was no less capable than his sons back then.
Since he wanted to retire a few years ago, they have all kept a low profile.
Now that we've decided to take a different path, we need to get started on many things, the first of which is to promote his son-in-law.
It was called a promotion, but it was just a return to normalcy. Those who had been watching their family had also noticed their actions.
Just as the old marshal said, when they were timid, they dared to openly make things difficult for their family.
Now that they're like this, those people are hesitant to act, but he doesn't plan to tell his precious daughter any of this.
She doesn't need to worry about these things; her home is her source of strength.
