Siheyuan: The beginning revealed the secrets of the three uncles

Xu Damao looked at the watch on his hand. It wasn't long before he got off work. He thought that Yu Shui might be worried since he didn't go home last night.

He then changed into his regular clothes, boarded his 280-horsepower bicycle and rushed home at lightning speed.

……

At this time, the rain had been trapped in an office of the street office for a whole day.

From yesterday afternoon till now, she has not eaten anything, not even a drop of water.

"Come on, is there anyone here?"

The rain knocked weakly on the office door, the sound filled with despair and helplessness.

"Can you please give me a drink of water?"

Her voice was so hoarse that she could hardly make a sound, but she still tried hard to make her voice heard.

"I'm really dying of thirst!"

Tears streamed down her cheeks and she felt her life slipping away.

The rain kept hitting the office door, as if it was her only hope.

Her body was so weak from hunger that every slap required a lot of effort from her.

But she still persisted, hoping someone would hear her cry for help.

However, no matter how she begged, no one responded to her.

There was dead silence outside the office, with only the cry of rain echoing in the air.

"Brother Damao, where are you? Why don't you come to save me?"

Yu Shui remembered that Xu Damao had promised her that he would protect her for the rest of her life, and her heart was filled with disappointment.

She didn't know why she was locked up here, and she didn't know how to face the days ahead.

"What on earth are they trying to do? Why are they locking me up here? I haven't done anything wrong!"

Yu Shui began to doubt the intentions of the street office.

She didn't understand why they treated her like this, she was just an ordinary girl who had never done anything bad.

After shouting for a long time without receiving any response, the rain began to talk to itself.

Her consciousness gradually blurred and everything in front of her became blurry and unclear.

After all, I hadn't had a drop of water for a whole day and night, and I was suddenly locked up and panicked.

The double pressure of physical and psychological pressure was too much for her as a girl who had just graduated from high school to bear.

Yu Shui's body began to tremble, and she felt that she could not hold on any longer.

She slowly squatted down, hugged her knees tightly, and tried to keep herself awake.

She was afraid that he would faint at this moment and never wake up again.

But the more she persisted, the heavier her eyelids became, and finally she closed her eyes in a daze.

He leaned against the office door and fell into a deep sleep.

Moreover, in the room of the deaf old lady in the courtyard, Bai Xiujiu and Qin Huairu's faces were so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping out of them. Their mood was extremely bad.

The sun was about to set, but Xu Damao's figure had not appeared yet.

"Director Bai, we have been waiting here for a whole day. We have hardly had any rest and can only eat a few bites of dry food to fill our stomachs. This is not a solution. Why don't we go back first?"

Wang Hong, the women's director of the street office, couldn't help but frown and complain.

Wang Hong has worked in the street office for many years and can be said to be an experienced veteran cadre.

She originally thought that after Director Wang Gang was promoted, she should be able to be promoted smoothly to deputy director.

However, what she never expected was that her superiors actually transferred Bai Xiujiu directly from the township to serve as the new director of the street office.

This change made her feel dissatisfied with Bai Xiujiu, after all, this position should have belonged to her.

"That's right, Director Bai!"

"Everyone has been waiting for so long, and I don't know what they are doing here. It's so hot that I feel like I stink!"

"If Director Bai can't make it, can we take turns going back to change clothes and eat something? We really can't hold on any longer!"

……

As soon as Wang Hong finished speaking, other staff members from the Street Office and the Municipal Revolutionary Committee began to complain with resentment on their faces.

"Shut your mouth!"

"This is an order from Director Wan of the Municipal Revolutionary Committee. Do you want to disobey Director Wan's wishes?"

"Don't think that nothing will happen just because Wang Gang left this morning. After this matter is settled, I will give Director Wan a truthful report. By then, he won't be able to continue his job as the leader of the first patrol group!"

Bai Xiu Ju turned her head instantly, glared at everyone with a dark face, and threatened viciously.

After hearing this, the crowd that was originally chattering suddenly became quiet.

Their faces turned pale, they looked at each other, lowered their heads, and dared not speak, as if they had thought of something terrible.

Although the people present are all civil servants, they also have families and need to make a living.

How would they face their families if they lost their jobs because of this?

For a moment, the atmosphere on the scene became extremely tense.

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at Bai Xiujiu for fear of angering her.

Bai Xiujiu stood there with a smug look on her face, seeming to enjoy the feeling of being in control of everything.

"Director Bai, Director Bai, Xu Damao is back!"

At this moment, Qin Huairu suddenly saw Xu Damao pushing a bicycle to their door through the crack in the glass.

She immediately turned around and shouted into the house.

Bai Xiujiu, who was scolding everyone, became excited when she heard the news, and an excited expression appeared on her face.

She didn't bother to pay attention to the other staff members. She hurried to the window, stood on tiptoe, and stared at Xu Damao outside the window.

When she saw Xu Damao's figure, a hint of viciousness and complacency flashed in her eyes.

She gritted her teeth and whispered, "Finally I'm back..."

It was as if he saw the hope of realizing his revenge plan.

At the same time, her body was trembling slightly with excitement, and she seemed to be impatient to start taking action.

The whole room was filled with an atmosphere of tension and expectation, as everyone was waiting for Bai Xiujiu's next instructions.

The other staff members just wanted to finish this inexplicable task early and go home to rest.

"Comrade Qin Huairu, how are your preparations going?"

"Don't worry, Director Bai. I'm always ready. I've been waiting for this moment for a long time!"

"Okay, let's go now!"

"Okay, Director Bai, as soon as you hear me yelling, rush in and subdue Xu Damao!"

"Okay, go ahead!"

……

After Xu Damao parked his bicycle, he pushed the door open and walked in.

But the room was empty and there was no sign of rain.

"Rainwater, rainwater?"

"That's strange, where did this little girl go?"

"Maybe he went out to buy groceries, but there are still a lot of vegetables in the kitchen!"

After Xu Damao looked around the house and didn't see any rain, he went out again, muttering to himself.
