Li Dahe still felt uneasy after returning home.
In order to maintain the calm demeanor of his captain when faced with trouble, Li Dahe forced himself to watch Li Xiaoshan unload the bricks and return the car. After chatting with Uncle Guan for a few words, he went to Widow Zhao's house and said that Zhao Zhuangshi had gone to the commune to run errands.
He did all the work he could, and even tried to cook for Aunt Li.
In the end, Aunt Li couldn't stand it anymore and drove him out to pick someone up.
Pick someone up?
What's going on with his dignified captain going to pick up a few brats?
Besides, why don’t you just go to the police station and ask a few questions? It's not a big deal, so he doesn't worry about it!
He just wants to go for a walk in front of his own house...or go for a walk in front of the educated youth spot...or go for a walk at the entrance of the village...
Then he met Wang Hong at the entrance of the village who also wanted to come here for a stroll.
Then, the two of them were almost frightened to death by the screams of the three brats, and one of the bicycles almost ran over Li Dahe.
Li Dahe took a step to the side with extra sensitivity, and then put his hands behind his back, still looking as calm as a captain: "Why are you howling? It's not safe to ride a bicycle!"
Lin Nianhe grabbed the corner of Su Yuncheng's clothes and stuck his head out: "Uncle Captain, Aunt Wang, are you two... eating after a meal?"
Wang Hong was about to say something, but Li Dahe interrupted him: "What if it's not the case? It's not okay to take a walk after eating too much, right?"
"Okay, very good." Lin Nianhe suppressed a smile and jumped out of the back seat, "It's getting late today, so let's go back first."
"Wait!"
Li Dahe glared at her and asked, "What did you say?"
"I didn't say anything."
"You didn't say anything, why are you so late?"
"this……"
Wen Lan interrupted: "Because Hezi was afraid that the police comrades wouldn't understand, so he kept chatting for almost an hour."
"..."
Li Dahe wiped his face and felt very tired.
He waved his hand: "It's okay if you have nothing to do. Go back and clean up and rest."
After saying that, he also ended this long post-dinner walk and walked back with his hands behind his back.
Wang Hong chuckled and whispered, "He has been waiting here for half an hour."
"Hmm, so Aunt Wang, you've been waiting for at least half an hour?"
"..."
"I don't have to worry about you anymore!"
Wang Hong turned around and walked back angrily.
Lin Nianhe and the other two laughed for a moment, then followed them back slowly without riding their bicycles.
Li Dahe didn't stop until he reached the point of becoming an educated youth.
The rest of the people also stopped and waited for the captain's instructions.
Li Dahe looked at them one by one thoughtfully, remained silent for a long time, and asked, "Where is Zhao Zhuangshi?"
Wang Hong also came to her senses: "Yes, where is Zhao Zhuangshi?"
Everyone was silent.
Well, where is Zhao Zhuangshi?
The three girls turned their heads in unison and looked at Su Yuncheng.
Su Yuncheng recalled for a moment and replied: "He was at the health center and didn't come back with him."
Li Dahe was immediately nervous: "What's going on? Are you seriously injured?"
"It's not serious." Su Yuncheng shook his head, "It's too late today and we can't allocate too many people to pick him up. So we'll let him stay in the health center for one night and we'll come back after questioning him tomorrow."
"That's it," Li Dahe breathed a sigh of relief, "That's fine."
Wang Hong nodded and said to Li Dahe: "Then I'll drop by his house and tell him that he spent the night in town, so that Widow Zhao won't have to worry about it."
In fact, she didn't go smoothly, but it was obvious that Li Dahe couldn't do this job. It was such a late night, and the other party was a widow, so it would be outrageous for Li Dahe to go.
Li Dahe nodded: "Okay, Hongzi, please pay attention on the way."
"Um."
They mentioned Zhao Zhuangshi briefly and then forgot about him.
After Li Dahe and Wang Hong left, Wang Shumei dragged Wen Lan back to the hospital without even looking at Lin Nianhe and Su Yuncheng.
Lin Nianhe made a face at their backs, then turned to ask Su Yuncheng: "Brother Yuncheng, can you leave after dinner?"
It was past eight o'clock when they came out of the police station, and the state-owned restaurant had closed early, leaving them with nowhere to go if they wanted to eat.
Su Yuncheng shook his head: "I'm not hungry, go back and rest quickly."
"Then you..." Lin Nianhe didn't leave, looking at him with a slight frown.
Under the moonlight, her eyes were particularly bright.
Su Yuncheng hesitated for a moment, then said: "There are still some things to do, don't worry."
"Then be careful." Lin Nianhe said softly.
"Well, go back to sleep. There will probably be chaos in the town recently. You should stay away from home. If you need anything, just call me on the phone number of the brigade headquarters."
"Okay, got it."
After all the instructions were given, Su Yuncheng hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and gently rubbed her head.
"Are you scared?" he asked.
Lin Nianhe blinked, nodded first, then shook his head: "Not too scared."
Not too scared. That's a little bit.
Su Yuncheng frowned slightly, thinking about how he should comfort him in this slightly scary situation.
Seeing how seriously he was thinking, Lin Nianhe couldn't help but laugh.
She said: "I'm kidding you, I'm not afraid of so many people coming back together."
After saying that, she retreated to the yard and continued: "I won't send you off, lest you worry about me and send me back again... Be careful on the road, and be careful when you attack others."
Su Yuncheng pursed his lips slightly, nodded and said, "I do have something else to do today. I'll come see you when... I have time."
In fact, he wanted to say, I will take you to the provincial capital when I am done.
But then I thought about it, when will he finish his work?
It has been two years since he changed his career, and he has hardly finished his work.
Therefore, I can only come and see her when I have time.
Su Yuncheng felt a little nervous after saying this.
She is so smart, she must be able to tell the difference.
So, will she be angry?
Of course Lin Nianhe was not angry. She nodded and agreed: "Okay, come when you are free. I will always be here."
Su Yuncheng smiled. On the way back, he rode the bike very briskly.
Lin Nianhe watched his figure melt into the night. After a moment, he turned around and saw two people standing by the window, holding their chins and looking at him with a smirk.
Lin Nianhe rolled his eyes, raised his chin slightly, and snorted arrogantly.
She wanted to ignore them and go straight to the backyard, but Wen Lan stopped her: "Wait a minute, aren't you hungry?"
As she spoke, Wen Lan handed her two steamed buns: "Here, they left the rice."
The rice was left in the pot, and a note was left beside it, saying it was for the three of them.
For the sake of Wo Wo Tou, Lin Nianhe didn't care about their peeping anymore and said, "Thank you, I'll go back to sleep."
"Nian He," Wang Shumei said, frowning slightly and asked, "Do you think my brother and Brother Cangzi will be fine?"
Lin Nianhe took a bite of the wowotou, thought for a moment and then shook his head: "No."
Their eyes met for a brief moment, and they both understood what each other meant.
Only Wen Lan didn't understand and comforted Wang Shumei: "It's okay, it's okay. If a young man fights and sheds some blood, what's going to happen?"
Wang Shumei: "..."
Lin Nianhe: "Sister Lan, your brain must be extremely smooth."
