Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

In fact, people of this era all came from the old society. Those who were a little older had experienced wars and were very sensitive and afraid of gunshots. When they heard the gunshots, many people began to run away with their heads in their hands. Some experienced people were afraid of being hit by stray bullets, so they immediately fell to the ground with their heads in their hands and found a place to hide themselves.

At this time, several people in plain clothes came running over from the periphery. Each of them held a pistol, and two of them even took out two PPSh-43 submachine guns with folding stocks from somewhere. They ran over and began searching for possible hidden spies.

Old Liu is no pushover either. After all, he is a veteran with rich combat experience and quick reaction. He had a small pistol on his waist when he came out. After hearing Lin Geng's warning, he immediately fell to the ground to avoid possible bullets. At the same time, he pulled out the small pistol hidden on his waist, loaded it and prepared for a counterattack.

But after all, he was not a guard, and his speed was not as fast as the guards around him. When the guards shot and killed the knife-wielding spy, he raised his gun and pointed it at the knife-wielding spy. However, seeing that the spy had been shot and no longer posed a threat, he did not shoot again.

Lin Geng actually held back when he kicked, otherwise, this kick would have hit the chin of the armed spy and killed him alive. Instead, he just knocked him unconscious.

After kicking the spy unconscious, he felt a wave of fear. He thought that it was fortunate that his sixth sense detected the approaching danger and allowed him to prepare in advance. If he had not been prepared, the Uncle Liu he had just met today would have been in great danger.

This was also his fault. He was the one who gave Lao Liu some special baits, which allowed Lao Liu to catch fish one after another, and even caused his guards to relax their vigilance. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many people coming to watch, giving the spies the opportunity to approach Lao Liu.

Thinking about it, Lin Gen felt a little scared, but also a little relieved. When everything was over, his hands were shaking a little. In the future, including the previous incarnation of this life, he had never experienced such a thing! Even if he had a good mental quality, he felt quite scared at this moment.

So Lin Geng walked over to Old Liu and asked with trembling lips: "Uncle Liu, are you okay?"

Old Liu looked at the two spies lying on the ground, then at the guards who had surrounded him for protection, then at Lin Geng, and the broken hand holding the gun on the ground. He then gave Lin Geng a thumbs up, without any nervous expression, and said cheerfully: "You are really good! You can actually break the spy's hand with a fishing rod. Are you a martial artist?"

Seeing that Lao Liu was fine, Lin Geng felt relieved. He smiled bitterly and sat down on the ground. With trembling hands, he took out the half box of white-pack special cigarettes that Lao Liu had given him, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then tremblingly reached for a match.

At this time, the guards had already controlled the scene and protected Lao Liu. The personal guard who followed Lao Liu came over with a look of fear and gratitude on his face. He took out a match and lit Lin Geng's cigarette, and whispered, "That's great, brother. Thank you, brother! You saved our leader's life. I'll remember this favor! I owe you my life!"

Lin Geng took a deep puff of his cigarette, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "What are you talking about! Isn't this what I should do? Didn't Uncle Liu acknowledge me as his nephew today? How could I watch him get killed by the spies? Don't talk about this! You're not bad either, you're such a good shooter! Amazing!"

The guard smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself formally. My name is Ma Biao and I am the chief's personal guard. You can call me Brother Ma from now on! I let my guard down today. Not only did you save the chief, you also saved my life. I'll remember this favor!"

We can't stay here any longer. We have to escort the leader back first. This matter needs to be handled by other departments! I may have to trouble you to accept an investigation! Sorry for causing you trouble!"

Lin Geng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, let Uncle Liu go back immediately, I'm fine, I can cooperate with the investigation at any time!"

At this time, Lao Liu came over and patted Lin Geng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Good boy, not bad! Uncle will not thank you enough. You saved my life today. Uncle will remember this favor! Let's visit each other more often in the future. I will ask someone to pick you up to my house in a few days. It is definitely not convenient today! I have to go back first, otherwise, they will not agree!"

Lin Geng still felt a little frightened at this moment, and nodded repeatedly, "Uncle Liu, don't be polite with me, just go back quickly, I understand! You definitely can't stay here for long now, I'll go see you later!"

Old Liu was not a pretentious person. He smiled and asked someone to pack up the fish he had caught today and the fishing gear he had left behind. He waved to Lin Geng and was escorted by several guards to leave quickly.

As for the two spies, the one who was shot had already died, and someone was left to guard the scene. The one who had lost his hand and fainted was urgently treated by the guards. They helped him stop the bleeding from his broken wrist to prevent him from dying from excessive blood loss. Then they searched his body thoroughly, tied him up and carried him away.

Seeing that he could not catch any fish at this moment, Lin Geng packed up his fishing gear, carried the fish basket and fish basket weighing dozens of kilograms and placed them in the baskets on both sides of the back seat of the bicycle. He greeted the guard who stayed behind to watch over the scene, told him his name and address, then rode his bicycle to the neighborhood committee office and gave the fish to them, thus fulfilling his promise to Director Wang.

This time, Director Wang did not let Lin Geng give the fish away for free. He asked the comrade in charge of purchasing at the street office to weigh the fish and pay Lin Geng for them at a price 70% off the market price. Lin Geng did not act pretentiously and took the money given to him by the street office.

Then he gave Aunt Liu three crucian carps weighing nearly a pound, and asked her to take them back to make fish soup for her daughter-in-law. Aunt Liu wanted to pay, but Lin Geng held her hand and said with a smile: "Why are you being so polite to me, Aunt Liu? They are just a few small fish. I am using them to help my sister-in-law produce milk! No one can say anything! Just accept them! It's a little gift from me to my little nephew! Don't be so polite to me!"

After saying this, he ignored Aunt Liu's call and rode away on his bike without telling Director Wang and the others what happened at the river today.

Then he went to the police station again and brought a dozen big fish to the police station. When Chief Zhao of the police station heard the news, he came out to take a look. He was so happy that he asked someone to weigh and pay for the fish that Lin Geng had sent, and he also settled the bill with Lin Geng according to the price given by the street office.

They all appreciated Lin Geng's favor and knew that he would be at a disadvantage with this price, but they also knew that Lin Geng would definitely not be happy with the market price, so they all kept this favor in mind.

Lin Geng also did not inform the police station about the assassination of the military general by the river by spies, because they would know about this matter soon, and the relevant departments would definitely conduct a detailed and thorough investigation of his identity.

Back in the yard, Lin Geng was still very tight-lipped. He knew that such things should not be spread around. This involved confidentiality. If he spread it around, it might cause some unnecessary trouble.

In the afternoon, Lin Geng was watching Master Li and his team doing the final finishing work in the yard. The house had basically been renovated, and all the renovations were done according to Lin Geng's ideas. The roof was suspended, and the house was painted white. The old doors and windows were replaced with new ones, but not painted. The house suddenly became brighter and looked much cleaner and tidier.

The floor tiles on the ground were also replaced with new ones, but they were not ceramic tiles, but ordinary bricks. According to Lin Geng's idea, a layer of cement was applied on them to prevent moisture. In such a situation of material shortage, being able to apply a layer of cement on the floor was already quite good.

As for some courtyard house novels where the protagonist always makes a fuss about decoration, that is simply nonsense. Unless he can produce cement and tiles by himself, otherwise, he will have nowhere to get cement even if he has money!

Even if he could produce cement, he would have to dare to use it. If someone asked about the origin of cement, how would he explain it? That would be pure suicide.

Lin Geng made good friends with the leaders and staff of the street office, and finally got some cement from the street office, fulfilling his wish of applying a layer of cement on the ground. In that era, this was already quite a luxury for ordinary people. If he wanted to lay tiles, it was easier to realize it than dreaming.

Lin Geng is very, very satisfied with the current state of decoration of the house. He doesn't dare to have any other ideas. What's more, he has also separated out a small bathroom, so he can take a shower at home in the future. This is already quite luxurious!

Lin Geng didn't dare to ask for anything else.

Just as he was discussing the final details with Master Li, two police officers suddenly walked into the yard. Led by Aunt Yan, they came to the door of Lin Geng. After introducing Lin Gen to them, the two police officers saluted Lin Geng and said to him politely, "Hello, Comrade Lin Geng. We have something we want to know from you. Please come with us to the bureau. Is it convenient for you now?"
