Siheyuan, my new life

The terrible incident that occurred tonight in the west wing of the courtyard house at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang was quickly reported to several high-ranking leaders following a few phone calls from Deputy Minister Zhao of the People's Armed Forces Department and Director Hu Dahai of the Dongcheng District Branch. As instructions were issued one after another, many people took quick action.

The lights in the Jiaodaokou Police Station were brightly on. Cars drove into the police station yard one after another. The originally empty yard suddenly seemed a little crowded.

Director Yu Chang'an of the Jiaodaokou Police Station couldn't remember how many times he had run out to greet them. Everyone who came tonight was a big leader whom he had no chance to meet normally. Now Yu Chang'an had only one thought in his mind, which was that he hoped that nothing would go wrong here tonight, because the reason these leaders could come to him tonight was that Deputy Director Lin Yu's home was smashed for no reason, and Director Lin's home happened to be in his jurisdiction.

Glancing at Director Hu Dahai who was standing next to him with a serious expression on his face, Yu Changan couldn't help but grit his teeth secretly. Those guys in the courtyard at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang had really stirred up a hornet's nest.

As the preliminary interrogation progressed, the frightened residents of Courtyard No. 95 rushed to confess what had happened.

After reading the interrogation record, Yu Changan couldn't believe it. The second uncle Liu Haizhong, the manager of the No. 95 courtyard, confessed that he was resentful because the new tenants who had just moved into the West Cross Courtyard next door did not take the initiative to visit him. Tonight, the smell of barbecue from the West Cross Courtyard aroused his appetite, so he took advantage of the alcohol and ran to the gate of the West Cross Courtyard. He thought that since he, the second uncle, had taken the initiative to visit, the new young people would definitely invite him in to drink and eat meat. But what he never expected was that the other party not only did not open the door to welcome him, but also yelled at him to get out. So Liu Haizhong kicked down the gate in anger, and the collapsed gate hit the jeep parked in the yard.

The preliminary interrogation results of more than a dozen other people have also come out. According to their confession, they were jealous of the new residents in the west wing who were barbecuing, and wanted to follow Liu Haizhong, the manager, to ask for some benefits.

Yu Changan certainly wouldn't believe these people's lies. Who could do such a thing as long as they were normal people? He had ordered his men to intensify the interrogation and get to the bottom of the matter.

As Director Hu Dahai personally led the elite officers of the interrogation department of the branch to arrive, screams were heard in the interrogation rooms and temporary offices of Jiaodaokou Police Station. However, the public security officers in charge of the interrogation had no sympathy at all. These people were so bold that they openly kicked down the door of the deputy director's house, which was a slap in the face of everyone in the Dongcheng District Branch.

A public security officer from the Jiaodaokou Police Station walked up to Yu Changan and whispered a few words. After listening to him, he told him to go back and continue the interrogation. Yu Changan reported to Hu Dahai next to him: "Director, the director of the subdistrict office, Tang Yongqiang, still refuses to explain anything and just keeps shouting that he is innocent. But according to Liu Haizhong's account just now, in order to become the manager of the No. 95 courtyard, Liu Haizhong once gave Tang Yongqiang a small yellow croaker, and he would give Tang Yongqiang cigarettes, alcohol and other items as a gift during festivals."

Hu Dahai frowned and said in a deep voice: "Since Tang Yongqiang is suspected of taking bribes, we will intensify the interrogation of Tang Yongqiang after consulting the leader."

At this time, a young man in a gray Zhongshan suit walked up to the two of them and said, "Director Hu, Director Yu, the leaders are in the conference room to listen to your case report."

Hu Dahai and Yu Changan quickly followed the young man into the meeting room of Jiaodaokou Police Station.

At this time, seven serious-looking leaders were sitting at the conference table in the conference room. The leader, a gray-haired leader in his fifties, said in a gentle tone: "Please ask the two comrades from the Dongcheng District Branch to give a detailed introduction to the case that happened tonight to the comrades present."

Yu Changan and Hu Dahai looked at each other, stood at attention and saluted: "Report to all leaders, I am Yu Changan, the director of Jiaodaokou Police Station of Dongcheng District Branch. At 9:26 tonight, the duty officer of Jiaodaokou Police Station received a report call from Comrade Lin Yu, deputy director of Dongcheng District Branch. Comrade Lin Yu informed us on the phone that a group of people were blocking outside his house, shouting and smashing the door. Comrade Lin Yu asked us from Jiaodaokou Police Station to deal with it immediately. As the duty leader of Jiaodaokou Police Station tonight, after receiving the call, I immediately led five duty officers on bicycles to the west wing of the courtyard at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. When we arrived at the scene, we saw that the gate and the courtyard wall had collapsed, and the fallen courtyard gate smashed on the jeep parked in the yard. Comrade Lin Yu was holding two pistols and confronting the gangsters who were making trouble. Analyzing the situation at the scene, if it wasn't for Comrade Lin Yu immediately pulled out his gun and stopped the other party, and the consequences were disastrous. When we were about to take the troublemakers back to the police station for interrogation, the leader of the gangsters shouted that he was the second uncle appointed by the sub-district office and he was carrying out the tasks of the sub-district office leader. At this time, there were already many people on the street at the entrance of the alley who had heard the news and rushed over to watch the excitement. I was worried that if this guy continued to shout, it would cause a bad influence, so I slapped him to stop him from shouting. When we escorted the troublemakers out of the alley, Tang Yongqiang, the director of the Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office, blocked our way. He completely ignored the gate and courtyard wall that were kicked down at the scene, as well as the smashed jeep, and directly said that this was just a small friction between neighbors. He accused our police station of mobilizing a large number of people, and said that leading cadres should be strict with themselves and lenient. Treat people in the same way, otherwise it will cause a very bad impact. The gangster who led the trouble had said that he was carrying out the task assigned by the leaders of the subdistrict office, but Director Tang actually ignored the facts and turned black and white, openly protecting the gangsters who were causing trouble. So Deputy Director Lin Yu ordered me to take Tang Yongqiang back to the police station for investigation. After returning to the Jiaodaokou Police Station, I immediately arranged for people to interrogate all the troublemakers. Director Hu of the Dongcheng District Branch led the comrades of the interrogation department to the Jiaodaokou Police Station. We conducted preliminary interrogations of all the troublemakers. The leader of the troublemakers was Liu Haizhong, a fifth-level forger at the Red Star Steel Rolling Plant and the second uncle appointed by the Jiaodaokou Subdistrict Office to manage the No. 95 courtyard. According to his account, after Comrade Lin Yu moved into the west wing of the No. 95 courtyard this evening, he did not take the initiative to visit him. The second uncle who was in charge of the courtyard held a grudge; before dinner, Liu Haizhong had encouraged the first uncle Yi Zhonghai and the third uncle Yan Bugui to go to the west wing to question Comrade Lin Yu, but Yi Zhonghai refused on the grounds that he was tired from work and planned to rest early. At around 8 o'clock in the evening, Liu Haizhong smelled the aroma of barbecue coming from the west wing. He encouraged more than a dozen residents of the No. 95 courtyard to go to the west wing together, saying that he wanted to teach the rules to the young man in the west wing who had just moved in and destroyed the stability and unity of the courtyard. When Liu Haizhong led people to the gate of the west wing, a man named Niu Erzhu came forward to smash the door and shouted for the new residents to come out and greet the second uncle immediately. After being sternly rejected by Comrade Lin Yu, Liu Haizhong went up and started kicking the door until he kicked down the gate and the wall and smashed them on the jeep, and then Comrade Lin Yu pulled out a gun to stop his atrocities. During the interrogation, Liu Haizhong kept saying that he just wanted to educate the new residents and let them obey his management. He also planned to let the new residents hold a banquet to entertain the residents of the courtyard. Regarding what Liu Haizhong said before that he was carrying out the tasks assigned by the leaders of the street office, he explained that it was the leaders of the street office that asked the steward to manage the courtyard carefully, and he insisted that he had the responsibility to educate the new residents to obey the management of the steward. In addition, Liu Haizhong explained that the day before the election of the steward of the No. 95 courtyard, he went to the home of Tang Yongqiang, the director of the Jiaodaokou Street Office, and gave Tang Yongqiang a small yellow croaker, with the purpose of wanting to serve as the steward of the No. 95 courtyard. So far, Tang Yongqiang, the director of the Jiaodaokou Street Office, has refused to explain any problems and has only been crying out for injustice. Dear leaders, this is all the interrogation situation so far, please give your instructions. "
