"Rufeng, although Shazhu did something wrong, we are neighbors. We should talk it out peacefully. Calling the police is too serious." Aunt Li advised.

"Yes, Rufeng, we are from the same courtyard. We can discuss and solve any problem we have." Xu Damao also advised.

Chen Rufeng's hand holding the phone trembled slightly. He knew that what the neighbors said made sense, but the anger and grievance in his heart made it difficult for him to calm down. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Okay, I won't call the police for now, but Shazhu, you must give me a reasonable explanation and compensation." Chen Rufeng's tone was calm, but his eyes were still sharp.

Sha Zhu nodded, and said sincerely, "Rufeng, I am willing to take all the responsibilities. Tell me what I should do."

Chen Rufeng thought for a moment and said, "First, you have to formally apologize to me and my younger sister, and promise not to hit anyone again. Second, you have to bear all the expenses of my hospitalization this time. Finally, if something like this happens again, I will definitely call the police."

Sha Zhu nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I agree to all of it. Rufeng, I'm sorry, I really know I was wrong."

The neighbors were relieved to see that the situation had turned around. They all hoped that the dispute could be resolved peacefully and would no longer affect the harmony in the yard.

Sha Zhu apologized to Chen Rufeng and Xiaomei and promised to bear all medical expenses. His attitude comforted Chen Rufeng a little, but he knew that the impact of this incident on him would not dissipate so easily.

Ru Feng watched all this with mixed feelings. He knew Sha Zhu's temper and knew that he would never really steal anything, but now that the matter had gotten out of hand, it might not be resolved in a short time.

The news of Sha Zhu being taken away spread quickly in the courtyard, and the residents were talking about it, and the atmosphere became extremely tense. Ru Feng returned home, thinking about what to do next.

Changes in the Siheyuan

In the evening, Ru Feng returned home and just sat down when he heard a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Qin Huairu standing at the door, her face looking a little anxious.

"Rufeng, I heard that Shazhu was taken away. Is it true?" Qin Huairu asked.

"Yes," Ru Feng nodded, "The police came and took him away."

Qin Huairu frowned and said, "Although Shazhu has a bad temper, he would not do such a thing. We have to find a way to help him."

Ru Feng nodded in agreement, "I think so too. I plan to go to the Public Security Bureau tomorrow to find out more about the situation."

The next morning, Rufeng got up early, washed up, and rushed to the Public Security Bureau. He waited at the door for a while, and finally saw a familiar public security comrade, and greeted him: "Comrade Li, hello, I am Chen Rufeng, I want to know something from you."

Comrade Li nodded, took him into the office, handed him a cup of tea, and motioned for him to sit down: "Are you here to ask about He Yuzhu?"

"Yes, Comrade Li," Ru Feng said straight to the point, "Why was He Yuzhu taken away? Did he really steal anything?"

Comrade Li sighed and said, "According to our current investigation, Sha Zhu did not actually steal, but there was indeed violence during his dispute with Liu Haizhong."

Ru Feng frowned and asked, "How long will he be locked up?"

Comrade Li shook his head: "It depends on the results of further investigation. If there is insufficient evidence, he will be released, but if there is indeed illegal behavior, it is hard to say."

After leaving the police station, Rufeng felt heavy-hearted. He returned to the courtyard and told Qin Huairu and other neighbors about the situation. Everyone seemed worried and expressed their willingness to work together to find a way to help Shazhu.

A few days later, something unexpected happened again in the courtyard. Suddenly, there was a cry from Liu Haizhong's home. It turned out that his youngest son had accidentally broken his leg while playing in the yard. Upon hearing the news, the residents of the courtyard rushed over and expressed their concern and condolences.

Ru Feng also rushed to the scene and saw Liu Haizhong anxiously holding the child and preparing to rush to the hospital. Without saying a word, he immediately helped to stop a car and sent them to the hospital.

A few days later, Liu Haizhong returned home with his child in his arms, his face looking tired but grateful. He met Rufeng in the yard and said with emotion: "Rufeng, it is really thanks to your help that I was able to send the child to the hospital so quickly."

Ru Feng waved his hand: "This is what we should do. We are neighbors, and we should help each other."

Liu Haizhong was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "I've been thinking a lot these days about Sha Zhu. Maybe I misunderstood him. What do you think I should do?"

Ru Feng was delighted and said quickly: "Liu Haizhong, it is not easy for you to understand this step. Why don't you go to the Public Security Bureau and explain the situation to them to see if you can help Sha Zhu get away with it."

Liu Haizhong nodded in agreement. On the same day, he went to the Public Security Bureau and explained the situation in detail to the relevant personnel, and expressed his willingness to withdraw the charges against Sha Zhu.

A few days later, Sha Zhu was finally released and returned to the courtyard. The residents in the courtyard gathered around him, expressing their concern and greetings. Sha Zhu looked at these familiar faces and felt very warm in his heart. He held Ru Feng's hand and said gratefully: "Ru Feng, thank you. If it weren't for your help, I might have to stay in there longer."

Ru Feng smiled and said, "It's okay. We are all neighbors, and we should help each other. If you have any problems in the future, discuss it with everyone and don't be impulsive."

Sha Zhu nodded and patted Ru Feng's shoulder heavily: "Don't worry, I'll remember it."

New Challenge

As the days passed, life in the courtyard seemed to have returned to its former tranquility. Sha Zhu returned to work, and the atmosphere in the courtyard gradually became harmonious.

However, the peaceful days did not last long. One day, Rufeng received a letter at work, the contents of which shocked and disturbed him. The letter was from his former comrade-in-arms Li Dawei, and mentioned something about Sha Zhu.

"Rufeng, how are you these days? I need to remind you of something. He Yuzhu seems to be targeted by some criminals. They suspect that he knows some clues about the old secrets. I hope

Chen Rufeng gradually woke up and looked at the white everything in front of him, feeling deeply tired.

Chen Rufeng gradually woke up, opened his eyes, looked at the white mist in front of him, and felt an indescribable fatigue. Last night's dream vaguely appeared in his mind, and those trivial fragments came like a tide, making him feel heavy. The content mentioned in the letter forced him to re-examine Sha Zhu's situation, and he had to find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible.
