"Stop bringing up other irrelevant things, like your son's salary level. He's always at the factory, not ambitious or motivated."
"Like mother, like son. Now that you've done this, Director Li is magnanimous and of course won't implicate your son. But will the others present be willing to accept it?"
"If it weren't for you, today wouldn't have been such a disappointment; if it weren't for you, today wouldn't have caused such a commotion!"
"I'm only letting you go today because of Director Li and Dr. He. If you weren't a family member of someone working at the steel mill, but an employee, I would have taken you to the security department, reported you to the leadership, and had you publicly criticized throughout the entire mill!"
Things are actually this serious.
What did he just say?
Do I need Jia Dongxu to bring me food?
Is she really going to be arrested?
Jia Zhangshi's legs were trembling.
Look at everyone.
Everyone is looking at her with disdain now.
If she really gets arrested, she absolutely mustn't let her son bring her food; if he does, wouldn't that implicate him?
He tried to ask the people in the bathhouse for help, but no one paid any attention to him.
He tried to ask Jia Dongxu's colleagues at the steel rolling mill for help, but no one paid any attention to him.
Especially Liu Lan, whose eyes were like knives, making you want to chop her up.
Didn't she catch a cold?
Wasn't she coughing the whole time?
Why do you have so much energy now?
I want to ask for help from the people living in the courtyard house.
But those people were just there to watch the show.
Xu Damao and Yan Jiefang, in particular, wished they could stand on stools and watch the excitement with gongs and drums.
Who else could she turn to?
Her eyes were fixed on He Hongyang.
He knew Director Li of the steel rolling mill, Director Ma of the police station, and was also familiar with Liu Qiang of the security department.
If I beg him now, I don't know if these people will let me off the hook, or even let my son off the hook.
She stepped forward and grabbed He Hongyang: "Hongyang, please save this old lady! She doesn't want to be arrested. What will happen to our family if I'm arrested?"
Now I'm thinking of asking him for help.
Just now, her spiky chin was practically sticking up to the sky, wasn't it?
Wasn't she just excited, like she was on steroids, standing there with her hands on her hips, giving orders the whole time?
He Hongyang completely ignored him and tried to shake off her hand.
But Jia Zhangshi clung to him tightly, treating him as her lifeline.
She was certain!
In front of so many people, if I ask him for help, he will definitely help me out of consideration for his reputation.
They decided to unleash their final, decisive move.
"thump!"
He wanted to kneel down before He Hongyang.
She didn't care anymore; as long as she wasn't arrested, she was willing to kneel down.
But He Hongyang immediately realized what she was about to do.
He stretched out his foot.
Before Jia Zhangshi could kneel down, she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Ouch, my leg!
She reached out her hand, wanting He Hongyang to pull her.
Go dream!
I wish you'd die from this, you old geezer!
"Director Ma, it's getting late. What do you think we should do now?"
3. Of course, they should be taken directly to the police station.
7. He has been a police officer for many years and has solved countless cases.
I never expected to be defeated by an old woman today.
7 He never imagined that she had been making unfounded accusations all along.
2. He himself brought so many people here, almost got into a shooting, and ordered people to search everywhere.
Nine. At that time, there were so many neighbors and friends.
1. He almost lost face.
1. We must bring the person to the station and interrogate them thoroughly.
This incident can be seen as a warning to others, letting the neighbors know the consequences.
Especially old women like Jia Zhangshi knew this.
If you discover any problems in the future, you must report them to the bureau immediately!
Don't rely on your own unfounded imagination to spout nonsense and give random orders.
"Take him back to his place!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Jia Zhang really wanted to take her back.
He simply sat on the ground, ready to throw a tantrum: "I meant well. You can't take me away just because you didn't catch the enemy agent. What right do you have to take me away?"
She even tried to throw a tantrum.
Director Ma shouted, "It's good to be highly vigilant, but if you want to gain merit by spreading false information, then you have ulterior motives."
“Jia Zhangshi, don’t think I don’t know. From the very beginning, you never discovered the enemy spies. The reason you kept patting your chest and assuring us was because you were eager to make a name for yourself. You wanted to treat everyone as enemy spies and hoped to turn your family’s fortunes around by catching one!”
"I've seen plenty of people like you who've lost their minds, and I've seen plenty of people like you who, relying on their age, sit on the ground and throw a tantrum!"
"What are you all standing there for? Take her away right now, I need to go back and interrogate her properly, what exactly is her purpose in doing this!"
The two people simply lifted the person up.
They dragged him out.
Knowing she was powerless to resist, Jia Zhangshi walked away shouting, "Hongyang, Damao, Jiefang, we all live in the same courtyard, please help me!"
Even at this point, she still tries to use moral blackmail.
Xu Damao immediately went to He Hongyang.
“Brother He, don’t listen to her. It would be better if that old woman was arrested sooner rather than later. Once she’s gone, our courtyard will finally have some peace and quiet.”
"You forgot how arrogant she was just now, saying that she could make a name for herself. If she does, she'll definitely live the best life in our courtyard."
"If she could achieve something, the sun would rise in the west. Director Ma is right. People like her are just trying to gild their own image by taking advantage of the current arrogance of enemy agents. Instead of getting any gold, they've just smeared a pile of shit on their faces."
I saw everyone leave one after another.
Fatty Wang invited He Hongyang to his office.
They were warmly served tea, snacks, and cigarettes.
He knew in his heart that if it weren't for He Hongyang today, he would have been completely flustered and at a loss, and he didn't know what the outcome would have been.
He grasped He Hongyang's hand and expressed his gratitude.
"Dr. He, I don't know what to say. We've only met a few times, I never expected you to help me like this."
"When you wrote that word on my hand, I knew that you were my support today, and I could only rely on you for everything."
"When they surrounded Director Li's private room and almost broke down the door, you have no idea how scared I was. To be honest, if it weren't for you, I probably would have blurted out that the people inside were Director Li and Liu Lan."
"If I really told them, wouldn't they hate me for the rest of their lives!"
"And about the bath tickets, I actually knew perfectly well that you gave both of the two bath tickets you bought to Director Li, and he then gave one of them to Liu Lan. But I really didn't dare to say it at the time. If I had, wouldn't I have betrayed him again?"
"Before Director Li came, he repeatedly told me that I couldn't tell anyone about this. I solemnly promised him that. Who knew it would turn out like this? Who knew that old hag Jia Zhangshi would suggest that someone search for the best single room in room 01?"
"I was sweating non-stop all night, and I was so nervous that my whole body was trembling."
"If it weren't for you, I would not only offend people, but if Director Ma really broke in with a gun, do you think I should keep the bathhouse open or not?"
"Snapped!"
Fatty Wang lit a cigarette for He Hongyang.
"I had heard people say before that Dr. He was not only capable and of good character, but also righteous and warm-hearted. After meeting him today, I can say that he is even better than that. I am truly impressed!"
"I, Fatty Wang, have traveled all over the country and opened many shops. I've seen all kinds of people, but I've never seen anyone like you."
As he spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer.
"I don't have anything good to offer, but this pack of cigarettes is my way of thanking you."
"From now on, when you come here, it'll be like coming to your own home. As long as I, Fatty Wang, am here, you won't need a bath ticket at all. You can have a private room, get a pedicure, or have a body scrub whenever you want, Dr. He."
"And your family members, whether it's your younger brother or sister, don't need to pay for bath tickets. I'll take care of everything."
As he spoke, he took out a stack of bath tickets from the drawer.
“I run a bathhouse and I don’t have any other skills. I will give you twenty bath tickets every month from now on as a way of expressing my gratitude for saving my life today.”
It seems that Fatty Wang was very excited; he was sweating profusely as he spoke.
He could barely accept this pack of cigarettes, but what about these bath tickets?
"Didn't you say that my family and I don't need bath tickets? What's the point of giving me these?"
Fatty Wang then came to his senses, scratching his head and saying, "I really don't know what to give you."
He Hongyang stood up, took a deep drag on his cigarette, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Since we don't know what to give, then we don't need to give anything."
"Although we've only met a few times, it's fate that brought us together. I didn't want to embarrass you too much by running into this situation today."
"Besides, who is Director Li? Of course you can't offend him. It's because we work in the same factory and I know about this."
Despite He Hongyang's immense help, he didn't boast at all. Instead, he humbly said that it was his own fault for encountering this situation.
Fatty Wang thought this person was simply extraordinary!
It is truly his good fortune to have met He Hongyang today.
He believed that if he could become friends with him in the future, he would definitely be able to learn a lot from him.
Since He Hongyang has said so...
What else could he say?
As the saying goes, great kindness needs no words of thanks!
I can only repay him little by little later.
"Dr. He, don't worry. Although I, Fatty Wang, have nothing, I have a lot of passion and I know a lot of friends. If you ever need my help, just give me a call. I'll go through fire and water for you without hesitation!"
He Hongyang certainly knew.
Moreover, he wouldn't help others for no reason.
He wanted Li Huaide to owe him a favor for this matter.
They also knew that Fatty Wang was no ordinary person.
Although he was just a bathhouse owner, he knew a lot of people. He was not only very shrewd and charming, but also knew how to get along with everyone.
More friends, more paths!
If I do him a favor today, Fatty Wang will repay me with an even bigger favor in the future.
