"Who is it so late at night?" Ji Yong shouted towards the door.
He raised his hand to signal his daughter not to open the door.
"Uncle Ji, it's me."
Ji Ling was the first to recognize him, "Dad, it's Zhu Yaowu."
As she spoke, she strode forward and opened the door. She saw Zhu Yaowu with one hand in his pocket and the other as if he was about to knock on the door.
"What happened at home?"
Zhu Yaowu said, "It's okay. My eldest brother drank too much and kept yelling that he wanted to see you, or he refused to go back to his room to sleep. I thought he was not far away, so I came to find you."
As he spoke, he looked into the yard and said, "Uncle Ji, you guys haven't slept yet, have you?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Ji Yong also heard it and said to his daughter with a smile, "Xiaoling, you can follow Yaowu."
Ji Ling responded, turned around and asked Zhu Yaowu to wait for a moment. She changed into sportswear and came out. She told Ji Yong to go back and rest, and followed Zhu Yaowu.
The two walked quickly, and when they reached the alley of the agricultural machinery family building, Ji Ling asked, "What happened?"
"Someone threw a glass bottle into the yard at night, and the yard was full of broken glass."
“A lot of people throwing?”
Zhu Yao said, "If it was just one person, I could run out to see who it was, but there were so many people, and they threw the balls so fast, like rain, how could I dare to go out?"
"How long have you been throwing it?"
"After throwing the balls for more than ten minutes, the neighbors were woken up and called the police. They were also implicated, so those people left." Zhu Yaowu said, "I came to find you because something happened to my eldest brother."
Ji Ling stopped and looked back at him, "Is he injured?"
"No, when those people ran away, my eldest brother chased after them. You know he has prosopagnosia, so it's hard for him to even recognize his way home. I'm not familiar with this place, and it's not easy to find an official right now. I thought you were familiar with this place, so I came over to try to find you."
Ji Ling: Mainly because she is not familiar with it either.
"What's that expression on your face? Aren't you familiar with it either?"
Ji Ling, "What if I say yes?"
Zhu Yaowu's eyes almost popped out of his head, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word, "You can try to say it."
Ji Ling: Isn’t it nice to use such a threatening tone?
The scene was awkward for a moment, and then an arrogant voice sounded across from the two of them, "San Biao."
Ji Ling: Zhu Yaowu heard the noise and looked for someone. He saw a man walking towards them from across the street. He turned back and confirmed with Ji Ling, "San Biao, is that you?"
"Friends who grew up together are calling to play."
Zhu Yaowu gave her a look, with a clear glint in his eyes that said 'I don't believe you'.
Zheng Shi walked up to the two of them and said, "San Biao, when I heard you were back, I took a taxi back to the county. I just got off the car. Are you here to pick me up?"
Ji Ling: "Yes."
Being ignored, Zhu Yaowu said, "You believe this too."
Zheng Shi then looked at Zhu Yaowu with a hint of disdain, "Are you San Biao's man? Then you can call me brother."
Zhu Yaowu chuckled, "Sorry, I'm her uncle."
Seeing Zheng Shi’s eyes wide open in surprise, Zhu Yaowu became even more proud.
Ji Ling thought that the two of them were making more and more nonsense than each other. If they continued talking, it would be dawn. "Zheng Shi, you came at the right time. I need your help with something."
Ji Ling told him what she heard from Zhu Yaowu, but concealed the fact that Zhu Weidong had prosopagnosia. Zheng Shi did not rush to speak after hearing this, but pinched his chin and thought for a while.
When Zhu Yaowu was about to lose his patience, he looked up at the two of them and said, "This matter should be directed at the Zhu family."
fart.
Zhu Yaowu was about to swear.
Then he heard the other party say, "People who do this kind of thing can't be good people. I know where those people in the county often play. Now I will take you there to have a look."
Finally there was a clue.
Ji Ling felt that Zheng Shi arrived at the right time. The three of them followed Zheng Shi and soon arrived at the Fifth Team of Workers and Peasants. This place was in the suburbs, it was pitch black and there were not many residents.
There was a faint light in one place, like a will-o'-the-wisp.
"Let's go and take a look." Zheng Shi pointed there. Zhu Yaowu was about to rush over, but he stopped him and said, "Find something to protect yourself before you go over."
He lowered his body and looked around, finally jumping in front of a house's fence, kicked it with his foot, broke off two pieces of wood, folded them back, handed one to Zhu Yaowu, and kept the other for himself.
He moved too quickly. When Zhu Yaowu wanted to say no, Zheng Shi had already kicked down. By the time he closed his mouth, Zheng Shi had returned with the wooden board.
"San Biao, wait here. If anything happens, run and call for help."
Ji Ling saw that the wooden boards in the hands of the two men could be broken with one kick, so how could they be used as weapons? She said, "Are those the gangsters from the county?"
"Yes, you who attracts cats and dogs, have you lost your memory again? I once stopped you for protection money at school, but your brother helped you solve it."
Ji Ling: She shouldn't talk too much.
She said, "Since they are not good people, let's set fire to them. If they run out, and Zhu Weidong is arrested, they won't have time to watch them anymore."
Zheng Shi: This girl has become ruthless for her man. Is this the power of love? Zhu Yaowu: She was completely left out.
So, it was decided that the two of them would go first, and if Zhu Weidong was really kidnapped by them, they would set fire, and if not, they would retreat.
Ji Ling watched them doing things, but she was still worried about following them. In fact, because she was nimble, she quickly walked to the front and left the two behind.
Zheng Shi was filled with emotion, and turned around to complain to Zhu Yaowu, "A daughter who is married off is like spilled water. Girls are extroverts."
Zhu Yaowu rolled his eyes and said, "You are not her father."
"Not her father, but her father."
Zhu Yaowu: He didn't know where this idiot came from, so he just took a few quick steps and left the fool behind.
In front, Ji Ling was already lying outside the lighted window, and she could hear people drinking and laughing inside.
"It was fun smashing things today. This kind of work is good. You can get paid and bully people. Brother Bao, take more jobs like this in the future, so that the brothers can have better food."
Well, no need to ask anymore, it was really this group of people who did it.
Ji Ling continued to listen. These people were praising a man called Brother Leopard. A group of people were talking, but Brother Leopard never spoke. Ji Ling thought it was quite mysterious.
Feeling someone pulling her clothes from behind, Ji Ling turned around and saw Zhu Yaowu pointing at the house and then looking at her. She shook her head, pointed at her ears, and then pointed inside the house.
Zhu Yaowu didn't ask any more questions.
Zheng Shi was very excited. He hadn't done anything so crazy since he started technical school.
The noisy room suddenly became quiet, and a woman's voice was heard. Judging from her age, it should be a girl's voice, "Let's all go home early."
