Siheyuan: I don't mind if I break up the marriage

Chapter 556: Sha Zhu is still one step late

It is difficult to buy on weekdays, and people can only have a taste of it during special festivals or when it is available with tickets.

In order to make this gift-giving event effective, Sha Zhu ran to almost every store in the city and finally collected all these precious gifts.

He carefully packed these things into the bag, as if he was holding the hope of saving the stick terrier.

Carrying this carefully prepared gift, Sha Zhu came to the leader's house.

It was a simple yet solemn courtyard. The guard at the door knew Sha Zhu. He greeted him with a smile and let him in.

The boss's wife heard the noise and came out of the house. When she saw Sha Zhu, a smile immediately broke out on her face:

"Hey, Shazhu is here, come in quickly!"

The boss's wife has always liked Sha Zhu's simplicity and enthusiasm, and is always particularly friendly to him whenever she sees him.

Sha Zhu walked into the living room and saw the boss sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.

Seeing Sha Zhu, the leader put down the newspaper and said with a smile:

"Xiao He, you haven't been here for a long time, come and sit down."

The big leader and Sha Zhu are friends regardless of age difference. They get along very well with each other on weekdays. The big leader is used to calling Sha Zhu "Xiao He", while Sha Zhu respectfully calls the big leader.

The big boss took out the chess from the side with great interest and said, "Come on, Xiao He, play two games with me."

Sha Zhu looked at the chessboard, but his heart was like a rabbit in his chest, he was in a state of anxiety. He had no intention of playing chess.

He just managed to force a smile. The big boss noticed that Sha Zhu was acting strange, put down the chess piece, and asked:

"Xiao He, what's wrong with you today? Is there something wrong?"

Sha Zhu hesitated for a moment, with an embarrassed look on his face, and said hesitantly:

"Boss, I...I came here this time because I do have something to trouble you with."

He took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to tell the whole story, and finally begged:

"Big boss, how could a child have such bad intentions? Not to mention being a spy.

Could you please call the relevant department and help clarify this matter?

As for the matter of Bang Geng stealing from Jiang Yueshen's house, I will handle it. Jiang Yueshen and I have a good relationship, so I will go and talk to him."

After hearing this, the leader frowned slightly and his expression became serious.

He pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Xiao He, this is a bit difficult for you.

This involves enemy spies, it's not a trivial matter, if I rashly greet them, it would be a bit awkward."

When Sha Zhu heard this, his heart skipped a beat and a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

Seeing this, the leader continued:

“But seeing that you are so anxious, I will give it a try, but it may not work.

You have to know that even if we contact the enemy's special department,

I can’t interfere with their work, that’s against the rules, I can only help by saying a few words.”

When Sha Zhu heard this, hope rekindled in his eyes, and he quickly expressed his gratitude:

"Thank you so much, boss! I am very grateful for your help."

The big boss nodded, stood up, walked to the phone, picked up the receiver, and dialed a number.

After the call was connected, the big leader smiled and greeted:

"Old Chen, I haven't contacted you for a long time. How have you been recently?"

Sha Zhu was listening nervously at the side. When he heard the big boss calling the other person "Lao Chen" and learned that he was his comrade-in-arms, he suddenly felt much more at ease.

After a few pleasantries, the leader got to the point:

"Old Chen, I want to ask you something. There is a kid named Bang Geng who was arrested by you as a spy. Do you know about this?"

There was a sound from the other end of the phone, and the boss's face suddenly changed. He said loudly in surprise: "What? When did it happen?"

Then, his brows furrowed tightly, his eyes widened, and his face was full of shock and seriousness.

Sha Zhu stood aside, his heart in his throat, not daring to breathe.

After a while, the boss put down the phone and turned around.

Sha Zhu hurried forward and asked anxiously, "Boss, what happened?"

The big boss looked at Sha Zhu, sighed, and said slowly: "It's too late."

Sha Zhu looked confused and asked, "What's late?"

The leader's voice was somewhat heavy: "Bang Geng has been shot."

When Sha Zhu heard these words, he was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze for a moment.

He opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

After a long while, he murmured to himself: "How could this happen... How could this happen..."

His face was filled with shock and disbelief, and he felt mixed emotions.

He felt sorry for Banggeng's death and blamed himself for not being able to save Banggeng.

He thought, he came to ask the leader for help with great joy, but he didn't expect that he couldn't change the cruel ending in the end. How should he explain to Qin Huairu when he returns?

The big boss looked at Sha Zhu's distraught look, and felt a little sorry for him. He patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:

"Xiao He, this is not your fault. This is a special treatment for a special period. No one expected it to happen so quickly."

Sha Zhu nodded mechanically. Qin Huairu's helpless face appeared in his mind and his heart ached.

He knew that this news was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Qin Huairu, and he became the one who brought the bad news.

Sha Zhu left the leader's house in disappointment, and his steps were particularly heavy on the way home.

Sha Zhu dragged his heavy steps on the way home. He seemed as if his soul had been taken away and only a numb body remained.

The afterglow of the sun shone on him, but it couldn't warm his cold heart.

He could never have imagined that from the time Qin Huairu came to him crying for help to the time he learned the tragic news that Bang Geng had been shot, less than two hours had passed.

Banggeng, that naughty yet innocent child, was only a few years old when his life came to an abrupt end.

Banggeng's smiling face kept appearing in Shazhu's mind. He remembered that every time Banggeng saw him, he would call him "Shazhu" without any hesitation.

But now, all of this has become a memory.

Sha Zhu was filled with regret. He felt that he had failed to help Qin Huairu, and even failed to save Bang Geng. He couldn't even imagine...

When I tell Qin Huairu this cruel news, I wonder how she will devastate.

Meanwhile, in the detention center, Jia Zhang cursed until her mouth was dry and she sat down on the floor with her eyes closed.

Trying to give my tired body and mind a break.

Suddenly, with a clang, the cell door flew open. Jia Zhang stood up instantly as if she had been electrocuted, her eyes wide open, and she shouted:
