Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

"Ahem, ahem..."

Yi Zhonghai cleared his throat, but heard Lin Shaowen shouting.

"Sir, let's not talk about Xu Damao not being caught by you... Even if you caught him, we should still be a little humanitarian and give him a pair of shorts, right?"

"Lin Shaowen, this is none of your business." Liu Haizhong said with a straight face.

"Is this a meeting of the whole institute?" Lin Shaowen said loudly, "Since it is a meeting of the whole institute, I am a member of this institute, how can it have nothing to do with me? Of course, if you insist on saying so, just don't ask me to participate in the whole institute meeting in the future."

"You..."

Liu Haizhong was choked immediately.

Lin Shaowen is quite influential among the younger generation. If he doesn't participate, the young people in the institute will follow suit in the future, and there will be no point in holding a whole institute meeting.

Old Lin, you are very considerate.

Xu Damao was moved to tears.

"Give him a pair of pants."

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand, unwilling to get entangled in such a trivial matter.

Qin Huairu and others dared to run out to watch the fun only after hearing Xu Damao put on his pants.

"Ahem, Xu Damao... Tell me the truth, what did you do?" Liu Haizhong said coldly, "If you explain yourself clearly, then we will handle this matter in Yanzili. If you don't explain clearly... we will report to the factory tomorrow."

"What did I do wrong?" Xu Damao said aggrievedly, "I just helped my friend to look at a house, why did you arrest me? And you paraded me through the streets. I will report to the factory tomorrow, how dare you treat the leading cadres like this..."

"Humph."

Yan Bugui's right cheek was red and swollen, and one of the corners of his glasses was broken, looking quite embarrassed, "Xu Damao, I think you won't cry until you see the coffin... Bring the person up to me."

"Hmm."

Lin Shaowen looked at the gate of the courtyard and was shocked.

Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiekuang were carrying a half-dressed woman as she walked in. She lowered her head, so people couldn't see her face, but judging from her figure, it was definitely that woman.

Yan Laoxi was indeed very good, and he actually arranged for someone to come back and kill him.

Xu Damao was also shocked to see the woman. He hurriedly looked at Lin Shaowen, but saw that the other party shook his head slightly.

He immediately felt cold inside.

"Li Xiaocui, tell me the truth... what's going on between you and Xu Damao?" Liu Haizhong sneered, "If it's not clear here, then let's go to the Joint Defense Office to talk."

"I... I'm doing business with him." Li Xiaocui whispered.

"What kind of business?" Yi Zhonghai said seriously.

"It's... that kind of business." Li Xiaocui said helplessly.

Seeing this, Lin Shaowen couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

It seems that this Li Xiaocui is not the first time to experience this kind of thing. Even a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

"Xu Damao, what do you say?" Yan Bugui sneered, "Now we have all the evidence... If you don't explain the matter clearly, you will suffer."

"Old Lin..."

Xu Damao called out with a pleading face.

"It's no use calling Lin Shaowen..." Yi Zhonghai said angrily, "This matter is set in stone today. If you don't give an explanation, you will go to jail."

Xu Damao didn't answer, but stared at Lin Shaowen intently.

"Go call the Joint Defense Office." Lin Shaowen turned his head to Yan Jiecheng.

"What?"

The whole yard was dumbfounded.

What kind of operation is this?

They didn't want to torture Xu Damao to death, they just wanted him to lose his job and pay money.

"Three uncles, do you know what your behavior is called?" Lin Shaowen said in a deep voice.

"What?"

Yi Zhonghai and others were slightly stunned.

"This is called setting up a private court, which is a serious form of clannishness." Lin Shaowen said seriously, "Now is a new era, the country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules... Xu Damao broke the law, so naturally someone will punish him. Not only did you not report to the Street Office and the Joint Defense Office, you even forced him to parade through the streets. Who gave you the power?"

The whole yard suddenly fell silent.

Xu Damao was a smart man after all. He reacted immediately and shouted, "Don't stop me, I'm going to the Joint Defense Office to surrender..."

"Xu Damao, are you crazy?" Liu Haizhong said angrily, "If you go to the Joint Defense Office, you might go to jail."

"Go to jail, I'd rather go to jail than be humiliated by you."

Xu Damao picked up the clothes on the ground, pulled Li Xiaocui and rushed out.

"Lin Shaowen, you did a good thing." Yi Zhonghai said angrily, "Xu Damao and you have a good relationship, right? Can you just watch him go to jail?"

"I think you should go out first, otherwise Xu Damao will run away... If you talk about this tomorrow, he will deny it." Lin Shaowen laughed softly.

"Fuck."Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui slapped their thighs and rushed out immediately.

But in the night, there was no trace of Xu Damao.

"Look for him. Even if we have to search all over the city today, we have to find him."

Yi Zhonghai roared, echoing throughout the courtyard.

Lin Shaowen patted his butt and turned to walk towards the west courtyard.

"Lin Shaowen, where are you going?" Yi Zhonghai glared.

"You just said that Xu Damao and I have a good relationship... What if I protect him?" Lin Shaowen smiled.

"This..."

Yi Zhonghai hesitated.

This seems to make sense.

"I'm going back to sleep, you guys have fun."

After a light laugh, Lin Shaowen returned to his own courtyard.

Qin Huairu and others followed him immediately after seeing this.

"Shaowen, why are you helping that kind of person?" Yu Haitang said dissatisfiedly.

"That's right, Xu Damao, a scumbag, deserves to be shot." Yu Li also chimed in.

"Actually... he told me that he was going to Anmenzi." Lin Shaowen said helplessly.

"What?"

Qin Huairu and others looked incredulous.

How could Lin Shaowen have anything to do with Anmenzi?

"You don't understand." Lin Shaowen sighed, "He was... that way yesterday, and then he told me that he was not interested in women. It just so happened that he was divorced again. If he wanted to try, wouldn't he have to go to Anmenzi?"

"Not interested in women?"

Qin Huairu and others shuddered when they heard this.

"He has made sacrifices for the street, it's not appropriate to torture him to death." Lin Shaowen spread his hands.

"You are kindhearted." Qin Jingru gently tapped his forehead, "When he bullies you, he always kills you..."

"There is another layer..." Lin Shaowen said with a smile, "Xu Damao is now a section chief, as long as he is still a cadre, there will be a lot of suffering in the future. Isn't it better to watch them fight each other than beating Xu Damao to death with a stick?"

"You are smart."

Qin Huairu said coquettishly, "Everyone in this yard is in your hands to play with."

"That's right." Qin Jingru also said helplessly, "We have lived in the yard for so long, when has he ever suffered a loss?"

...

Ran Qiuye looked at Lin Shaowen in shock.

No wonder Captain Xing said he was a little Zhuge, he was too smart, right?
