Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Lin knew why they came, so he smiled and said, "No problem, I'll go with you!"

After saying that, Lin Geng said hello to Sha Zhu, asked him to help look after the house, and then followed the two policemen out of the courtyard. After leaving the house, Lin Geng followed them into an old Willys jeep, which should have been seized from the captain of the transport team, and is still in use today.

Many people in the courtyard saw this scene, and they didn’t know what happened. They only knew that Lin Geng was suddenly taken away by two police officers, and the specific reason was unknown.

The yard immediately became chaotic, with people whispering to each other and discussing in low voices why Lin Geng was taken away by the police. Then some people who disliked Lin Geng began to gossip and make malicious speculations, saying that Lin Geng must have been too ostentatious during this period and must have been discovered for speculation, which was why he was taken away by the police.

Some people also said that Lin Geng had extorted so much money from the Yi family, the Liu family, and the Jia family this time, and now the police wanted to deal with him.

Sha Zhu, Aunt Liu and Aunt Yan were all very worried about Lin Geng. They didn't know what had happened and the police didn't say anything. They just took Lin Geng away. They all felt a little nervous for Lin Geng.

Especially Sha Zhu, who was now full of guilt towards Lin Geng. When he saw Lin Geng being taken away, although Lin Geng was smiling as if nothing had happened, he felt that Lin Geng should not have done anything wrong. The two policemen were also quite polite to Lin Geng, which made Sha Zhu feel more relieved.

But when he heard some people in the yard gloating privately, saying that Lin Geng had committed a crime and was arrested by the police, Lin Geng could no longer be so arrogant.

So Sha Zhu was very angry and immediately shouted in the yard: "What are you talking about? How could Brother Xiao Lin commit a crime? Are you blind? When the public security comrades came, they all had smiling faces and were polite to Lin Zi. Did they look like they were here to arrest Lin Geng?

Lin Zi was also very happy when he left. He talked and laughed with the public security comrades and even smoked the cigarette handed to him by the public security comrades. If he had committed a crime, would the public security comrades be so polite to him?

Some people just can't stand seeing others do better than they already are. They hate those who have more and laugh at those who have less. They are so wicked!

If anyone says bad things about Lin Zi again, and I hear him, I will beat him till his teeth are all over the ground! If you don’t believe me, just try it!”

Some middle-aged women and young wives who were whispering in the yard heard Sha Zhu waving his fist and threatening them viciously, so they immediately shut their mouths and dared not say anything more.

Everyone knows that Sha Zhu has a bad temper. This guy is a reckless person with a very bad temper. It is normal for him to beat people up if he disagrees with them. Now his relationship with Lin Geng has been restored and he is helping Lin Geng. If he says something bad about Lin Geng again and Sha Zhu hears it, he may really beat people up.

So some people who were whispering bad things about Lin Geng in the yard immediately shut up and fled back home in shame.

But there were people who had similar views to Sha Zhu, so they agreed with Sha Zhu and said that Lin Geng definitely did not commit any crime. Lin Geng was a good person, so how could he be arrested by the police?

Aunt Liu is actually not someone who is easy to talk to. She is a woman in her fifties, who has lost her son and is raising two grandchildren. How can she survive in this compound without having a temper?

She also couldn't stand to hear people say bad things about Lin Geng, so after Sha Zhu finished scolding her, she stood in the yard with her hands on her waist and started to curse: "You conscienceless bastards, Xiao Lin is such a good person! Not only did he take care of us poor people who couldn't survive, he also learned how to fish and gave fish to every household in your family!

Now you bastards are talking bad about Xiao Lin behind his back. I want to ask you bastards, have your consciences been fed to the dogs?

You say bad things about Xiao Lin like this, don't you feel guilty? Aren't you afraid that your baby will have no anus! If anyone dares to say bad things about Xiao Lin again, I will tear your stinky mouths apart if I hear it! ..."

After being scolded by Sha Zhu and Aunt Liu, no one in the yard dared to go out and say bad things about Lin Geng anymore. The women who had just gathered outside to say bad things about Lin Geng were so scared that they hid back in their homes, not daring to even breathe.

But this did not prevent several families in the yard from gloating in the yard. They were of course Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Jia Dongxu and his wife.

They had also heard or seen Lin Geng being taken away by the police. They hid at home and secretly speculated maliciously whether Lin Geng had committed a crime and was arrested. They even began to feel happy. Yi Zhonghai even took out a bottle of wine and a handful of peanuts and started drinking at home.

After hearing this, Liu Haizhong excitedly asked his wife to fry him an egg, took out half a bottle of liquor, and started celebrating at home.

As for Jia Dongxu, although he did not drink, he and Qin Huairu speculated at home that Lin Geng might have committed some crime and was arrested by the police. In short, these beasts were jubilant at the moment, and they all hoped that Lin Geng would be caught as soon as possible, preferably if he had committed a serious crime and was directly taken to the shooting range.

After Lin Geng got in the car, he was taken to a secret yard where there were both police officers and soldiers. When Lin Geng arrived, he was politely invited into a room and asked to sit down. Someone brought him a cup of hot tea, and two soldiers and two police officers began to question him about the assassination of Lao Liu by the river that morning.

Lin Geng still doesn’t know Lao Liu’s specific identity. He just guessed that he was a general, but he had no idea what he did.

These soldiers and public security comrades first asked some questions about Lin Geng's identity, including not only his parents, but also questions about his life such as where he went to school. However, the questions were very polite and did not sound like an interrogation. It was more like chatting with him, and Lin Geng answered them calmly one by one.

After asking these questions, they asked how Lin Geng knew Lao Liu. Lin Geng also honestly answered how he met Lao Liu that day, how he gave Lao Liu a big catfish, and how he met Lao Liu again today.

Then the soldiers and public security comrades asked Lin Geng why he went fishing today. Lin Geng then told them that he was going to deliver the fish to the street office and the police station, and told them that the fish had been delivered to the street office and the police station, and they had also paid him.

Finally they asked Lin Geng how he discovered the two spies and how he stopped the two spies from committing crimes today.

Lin Geng then replied: “I actually didn’t notice it in advance, but I saw Uncle Liu catching fish one after another, and they were big fish, so I wanted to go over to take a look. When I approached Uncle Liu, I unexpectedly found that two people suddenly pulled out pistols and daggers in their arms and rushed towards Uncle Liu!

The man with the gun wanted to aim at Uncle Liu's back. Then I realized that they were not good people and might be spies. So in a hurry, without thinking too much, I swung the fishing rod at the spy with the gun. Who knew that I used too much force in a hurry and actually broke his hand. I was also shocked.

But the spy with the knife was still rushing towards Uncle Liu, so I had to hit the spy again with the fishing rod. Later, the spy was shot dead by Brother Xiao Ma!

That was the thing, very simple, but it scared me so much that it took me a long time to recover. My hands were shaking from fear. I smoked a cigarette and then I recovered! I was really scared to death!"

"How did you manage to use a fishing rod to cut off a person's hand, making it fall off like it was cut by a knife? Have you ever practiced martial arts before?" A soldier asked Lin Geng with a slightly suspicious look.

Lin Geng shook his head and said, "That's not the case. I'm just a little stronger! If you don't believe me, I can show you!"

So a few soldiers and police officers looked at each other, nodded in agreement, and took Lin Geng to the yard. In fact, the yard was also a quadrangle courtyard before, but it was requisitioned by the government for use by a secret department. In the corner of the yard there were some sundries used by this family in the past.

After taking a closer look, Lin Geng spotted a stone mill among the miscellaneous items. This thing looked like it must weigh at least five or six hundred pounds. Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for one person to lift it.

Lin Geng pointed at the stone mill and said, "Let's take this one. Although I haven't tried it, I think I should be able to lift it up without any problem!"
