Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Everyone looked at the stone mill and estimated its weight. They all expressed doubt. After all, this thing was so heavy that even a martial artist might not be able to lift it. What's more, Lin Geng didn't look very strong and didn't look like a strongman. When he said he could lift such a heavy stone mill, no one believed it.

Who knew that Lin Geng walked over, bent down, found a suitable position to exert force, and hugged the stone mill. He shouted in a deep voice, exerted force with his arms, waist and legs at the same time, and with a loud roar, he actually lifted the stone mill weighing five or six hundred kilograms and left the ground.

At this, the police officers and soldiers all widened their eyes and exclaimed in amazement. They truly believed that Lin Geng was a boy with natural supernatural powers and was not talking nonsense.

They asked Lin Geng how he had broken a man's wrist with a fishing rod. Lin Geng then looked around the courtyard and found a bamboo patch in another corner of the yard. He went forward and asked someone to cut him an old bamboo. He didn't know what kind of bamboo it was, but it was not very thick and felt hard and tough.

Of course, such a bamboo pole cannot be compared with his magical fishing rod, but it can also show his skills.

He shook the bamboo pole, then exerted force with his hand and lashed it towards a branch of a tree in the yard that was as thick as an arm. A sharp sound of breaking air was heard from the far end of the bamboo pole, followed by a loud crackling sound. The branch of the tree that was as thick as an arm was broken by Lin Gengyi's bamboo pole and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

At this point, everyone no longer doubted Lin Geng's ability. If he could use such a bamboo pole to break such a thick branch, it should not be impossible for him to break off the spy's hand. This completely dispelled all their doubts about Lin Geng.

Moreover, before bringing Lin Geng here, they had sent people to the street office and police station in the area where Lin Geng lived to investigate Lin Geng. Lin Geng's background was very clean. His father was a martyr who fought for the country, made many military achievements and died on the battlefield on the peninsula.

Lin Geng was the son of a martyr. He lived with his mother since childhood, went to school and grew up in Beijing. After graduating from junior high school, he failed to get into high school or technical secondary school, so he stayed at home. People who knew Lin Geng said that Lin Geng was an honest and good child. Since he was settled in Beijing by the country, he has never left Beijing, so it is impossible for him to be bribed to become a spy.

And according to their investigation, more than a week ago, Lin Geng was still a cowardly young man. However, after his mother passed away, leaving him as the only orphan of a martyr, he was seriously ill due to the grief of losing his mother. He was persecuted by some beasts in the yard, led by an old man, and was almost killed by them.

After he recovered from his illness, his temperament changed drastically and he beat up the beasts. Later, for various reasons, he extorted a large sum of money from the beasts and forgave them.

He has a very good reputation in the street office and the police station. The street office staff and the police station police comrades all know him and think very highly of him. They all say in unison that he is a good boy.

And according to their inquiries and investigations, Lin Geng and Lao Liu's acquaintance was indeed a coincidence. It can be said to be a fate, and there is no doubt about it.

The only thing that made the officials handling the case suspicious was the ruthlessness and incredible methods displayed by Lin Geng this morning, which made the investigators feel somewhat doubtful.

But after verification on the spot, such doubts disappeared. They could be sure that Lin Geng had saved Lao Liu accidentally, and his ability could only be explained by his natural gift. Such people do exist, but they are relatively rare. Lin Geng happened to be such a person, born with supernatural powers.

So the case handlers praised Lin Geng enthusiastically, told him that the investigation on him could be concluded, and praised him as a good young man who dared to do what was right. After the case was concluded, the authorities would praise him and give him rewards, and let him go back to live and work in peace without worrying about this matter.

Then the investigators sent a car to take Lin Geng back to the courtyard.

When Lin Geng returned to the courtyard, it was already dark. Sha Zhu and He Yushui had already prepared dinner, but did not eat. They both stood at the gate of the courtyard, craning their necks and looking forward to Lin Geng's return.

Even Old Wang and Aunt Liu were guarding the gate with their children. Yan Bugui and Aunt Yan accompanied them at the gate. The group of people looked worried until they saw a car coming and parked outside the alley. Lin Geng got out of the car, smiled and waved goodbye to the two police officers who sent him there. Only then did the group of people breathe a sigh of relief.

He Yushui even shed tears of excitement and walked towards Lin Geng crying.

Lin Geng smiled and rubbed He Yushui's head and said, "Why are you crying? I just followed the public security comrades to cooperate with an investigation. What's the matter?"

He could tell at a glance that He Yushui was worried about him, so he joked with her.

He Yushui saw that Lin Geng was fine and smiling, and it didn't look like he was being arrested for interrogation, so he felt relieved, wiped his tears and burst into laughter.

The others who were waiting for him at the door were relieved to see that Lin Geng was fine, so they came up to him and asked him about everything. Lin Geng shook his head and said, "This matter involves confidentiality. I can't tell you. I can't tell you! If I tell you, it will cause you trouble. So don't ask. Just know that it's not a bad thing for me, but a good thing!"

When everyone heard what Lin Geng said, they immediately shut up and stopped asking questions. As long as confidentiality was involved, it was not something that ordinary people like them could inquire about. There was no benefit in really knowing it, and once it slipped out, it might cause big trouble. Ordinary people have their own survival wisdom, and they all know how to seek benefits and avoid harm.

So everyone went into the yard, talking and laughing. Lin Geng invited Yan Bugui and Lao Wangtou to have a drink in the middle yard, but Yan Bugui refused for the first time.

"Let's forget about it today! You've been busy all day and just come back now, so go back and have dinner! Damao went to the countryside to show a movie today and hasn't come back yet, so you should go to bed early after dinner! I won't go with you to disturb your rest! There are many days to come, so let's take it slow, there will be plenty of opportunities to drink!" Yan Bugui said to Lin Geng with a smile.

His behavior surprised Lin Geng, and he looked at Yan Bugui with a new respect. This old man was never satisfied with taking advantage of others and never refused anyone's invitation. As long as there was a chance to get a bite of delicious food, let alone invite him, even if he was not invited, he would find ways to find all kinds of reasons to get a bite of the delicious food.

Sometimes, he would even ask others to treat him to a meal just to get some small advantage because of his stuttering.

But today, when he invited him over for a drink, the old man was able to control his instinct and refused his invitation. This was quite surprising, and made Lin Geng have to look up to him even more.

This shows that Yan Bugui is a smart man. He is not one of the greedy Jia family members. He has his own bottom line and knows some limits. So as long as Yan Bugui can continue to do this, he doesn't mind getting closer to him and letting him take advantage of him in the future.

As for Old Wang, after hearing what Yan Bugui said, he certainly couldn't be so shameless as to go to the Central Courtyard to drink with Lin Geng, so he immediately rejected Lin Geng's invitation.

Lin Geng smiled and said, "Okay! Thank you all for your concern! If you are free some other day, we can get together for a few drinks! I am really a little tired today!"
