He Yuzhu decided to take action himself. One weekend afternoon, he pretended to show up at the teahouse that Liu Haizhong often visited, ordered a pot of good tea, and waited quietly. Sure enough, not long after, Liu Haizhong also walked in. He Yuzhu greeted him politely, and Liu Haizhong glanced at him coldly, seemingly unwilling to talk more.

"Uncle Liu, are things going well at work recently?" He Yuzhu asked with a smile, a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Liu Haizhong's face darkened and he snorted coldly, "What do you mean? Just say it!"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly, moved closer, and whispered, "Uncle Liu, I heard there are a lot of unfavorable rumors about you recently. Do you need my help?"

Liu Haizhong suddenly became alert, "You...what do you know?"

"I know a lot," He Yuzhu deliberately kept it a secret, "How about we find a quiet place to talk?"

Liu Haizhong hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded. The two left the teahouse and walked into a secluded alley. He Yuzhu looked around and made sure that there was no one else. He lowered his voice and said, "Uncle Liu, in fact, there is someone behind all these things. I know who it is."

"Who?!" Liu Haizhong asked anxiously, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Liu, this person... is someone you offended before, and he now has a lot of leverage over you." He Yuzhu said slowly, looking calmly at Liu Haizhong's reaction.

Liu Haizhong also joined in, "We can't let them succeed. We must hold our ground."

Under their leadership, the neighbors paid close attention to the surrounding situation and vigilantly guarded their homes. At this critical moment, they united to meet possible challenges together.

At this moment, He Yuzhu suddenly thought of a key question, "Hey, why hasn't Shazhu come back yet?"

Liu Haizhong immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, "Yeah, why hasn't Shazhu come back yet? Did something happen?"

Everyone who heard their conversation was also worried. Sha Zhu was a member of this community, and everyone cared about him very much and didn't want anything to happen to him.

"Hurry, let's go find him!" a neighbor suggested.

Everyone responded immediately and started searching together. They followed the streets near the courtyard, looking for Sha Zhu's traces, hoping to find him as soon as possible.

Under the moonlight, they shuttled through the night like a group of ants. Everyone's heart was filled with worry and anxiety, hoping to find Shazhu as soon as possible and ensure his safety.

However, during the long search, no trace of Sha Zhu was found. He seemed to have disappeared, making everyone even more anxious and worried.

"What should we do? Where did Shazhu go?" a neighbor asked worriedly.

He Yuzhu and Liu Haizhong were also very anxious. They were determined to continue searching and not give up any possible clues.

At this moment, a neighbor suddenly found a suspicious trace. "Everyone, come and see!" he shouted.

Everyone gathered around immediately, and he pointed to a mark on the ground. It was a deep rut, which seemed to be left by a bicycle.

"That's the track from Shazhu's bicycle!" a neighbor exclaimed.

As they looked at the ruts on the ground, they felt angry and uneasy. Sha Zhu's bicycle was also missing, which made them even more worried about his safety.

"What's going on? Was Shazhu also attacked?" a neighbor asked anxiously.

He Yuzhu frowned, his heart filled with doubt and anger. "It seems that all this is not accidental, there must be someone behind it." He said coldly.

Liu Haizhong also clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth: "Yes, this must have been deliberately created by someone to put us in trouble."

When everyone heard what they said, they all agreed. At this critical moment, they must unite to fight against evil forces and defend their homes and dignity.

"We can't be intimidated by them, we must rise up and fight back!" a neighbor shouted.

Others also expressed their support, and they were determined to stand with He Yuzhu and Liu Haizhong to fight against the evil forces together.

"So what should we do now?" asked a young man.

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and then came up with a plan, "We must first find the whereabouts of Shazhu and ensure his safety."

"Yes, we can't let them succeed, we must find Sha Zhu!" Liu Haizhong said firmly.

So, everyone immediately split up and took action. Some were responsible for searching the environment around the courtyard, some were responsible for investigating the places where Sha Zhu might appear, and some were responsible for collecting intelligence.

With their efforts, they soon got some valuable clues. A neighbor found a suspicious trace that seemed to be Sha Zhu's trace. They immediately followed these clues and tried to find Sha Zhu's whereabouts.

After a long search, they finally found Sha Zhu, who was lying in a deserted corner, covered in wounds, looking exhausted and helpless.

"Shazhu, what's wrong with you?" He Yuzhu asked anxiously while helping him up.

Sha Zhu opened his eyes with difficulty and managed a smile. "I... I'm fine, just a little tired."

Hearing Sha Zhu's answer, He Yuzhu felt a pang of sadness in his heart. He knew that Sha Zhu was a kind and innocent person, so how could he suffer such hardship?

"Who did it? Why did they do this to you?" Liu Haizhong couldn't help but ask.

Sha Zhu shook his head bitterly, "I... I don't know either. I only know that a group of strangers... attacked me."

When everyone heard this, they were filled with anger and resentment. They were determined to find out the truth and never let go of those villains who wantonly hurt others.

"Don't worry, we will find out the truth and never let those villains go unpunished!" He Yuzhu said solemnly.

Sha Zhu nodded slightly, revealing a grateful smile. "Thank you, thank you for saving me."

After He Yuzhu and his neighbors brought Sha Zhu back to the courtyard, they began to discuss countermeasures. Liu Haizhong was worried about Sha Zhu's injuries, so he immediately found some simple medicines and gauze to help him treat his wounds. Although Sha Zhu suffered some minor injuries, fortunately, he was not seriously injured.

At the same time, He Yuzhu and Liu Haizhong began to carefully question Sha Zhu about the attack. Sha Zhu struggled to recall and describe the attacker's appearance and behavior. Although his mind was a little confused, he tried his best to recall and cooperate with the two neighbors' inquiries.
