When the police finally came around from the front door to find Li Zheng and Jin Mao, they saw a strange scene——
The golden-haired man with his mouth full of blood sat on the ground and cried, with a look of despair and helplessness.
Several auxiliary policemen stepped forward like wolves and tigers, held Jin Mao down and handcuffed him. This time they tied him into a rice dumpling with hemp ropes. They searched him all over and even took off Jin Mao's penis. belt.
When he saw the police, Li Zheng pointed at the golden retriever and explained: "He threw it when he wanted to attack me."
After all, acting bravely will also involve some legal issues. As an undergraduate majoring in law, it is impossible for Li Zheng to let Jin Mao blackmail him.
The policeman asked Li Zheng: "Young man, thank you for your help. Can you come back to the police station with us to make a record?"
Li Zheng waved his hand quickly: "No, I have something else to do and I have to go buy groceries."
The policeman said: "You have done a good thing. We have no other intention. We just want to make a record and see which unit you are from, and write you a letter of praise. Maybe there will be a reward for your bravery!"
Li Zheng was most afraid of being famous, so it was okay if the police didn't tell him. When they asked him what kind of commendation letter he would write and what kind of reward he would be given, his head shook like a rattle.
"No, no, no, I don't need any reward..."
The policeman said: "You are rewarded for your bravery! I can't even think of it, but you still don't want it?"
Li Zheng still shook his head and refused: "No, no, no, no."
After speaking, he looked at his watch and said: "Sorry, comrade police, I have to go home and buy groceries..."
Buying groceries...
Before the police could react, Li Zheng had already run away quickly.
That's right...
Ran……
And it's fast.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared in the direction of the school gate.
The fat policeman asked the thin policeman: "Hey! Look at that boy, he's not willing to write a letter of praise to him? It's strange!"
It was also the first time for the thin policeman to meet such a person. Looking at Li Zheng's back, he felt something interesting. He touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Why do I feel..."
At this point, I was not sure, so I didn't say it out loud.
The fat policeman said: "What do you think?"
The thin policeman waved his hand and said, "Nothing, I just think there is something special about this young man."
The fat policeman's eyes suddenly lit up: "We have to check!"
Thin policeman: "Huh?"
The fat policeman said: "I'm afraid of showing my face, so I'm just trying to escape..."
The last word "criminal" was not spoken.
Because it suddenly felt very unreasonable.
If he were also a fugitive, he wouldn't be stupid enough to meddle in other people's affairs.
In the end, the two policemen still had no reliable answer, so they first took Huang Mao back to the police station to hand him over.
Li Zheng ran out of the school gate, looked back and saw that the police were not chasing him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He suddenly felt something strange about himself.
In the past, people were not afraid of being famous for doing good deeds, especially when they were students, they were eager to be praised.
Now it's strange.
Subconsciously, I have an inexplicable resistance to things like "being famous".
I always want to be quiet and low-key by myself, so as not to attract too much attention from others.
Thinking about it, after more than two years in the army and experiencing many things, he felt that he had changed a bit, but he couldn't tell what was different for a while.
I went to the market, carefully selected a fish, bought fresh beef, made a chicken, and bought some mushrooms from a mountain stall. I planned to go back and make soup for grandma to drink.
After struggling for more than half an hour, I came out of the market. It was almost dusk when I got home, and the sun had moved to the west.
Li Zheng opened the door and entered the house, and found that his grandma had not returned yet.
This time he couldn't sit still, so he picked up the phone and dialed grandma's number again.
This time I got through, but no one answered...
After beating him several times, I finally gave up and washed the vegetables and chopped the chicken a little uneasily. After chopping for a while, I remembered something, turned around and quickly went downstairs.
"Uncle Wang!"
When Li Zheng arrived at the concierge, Uncle Wang was still fanning the cattail leaf, humming and listening to the radio, but there was a pot of tea and a cup on the small bamboo table next to him.
"Um?"
Uncle Wang, who had half-closed eyes, opened his eyes.
"Hey? Li Zheng? What's the matter?"
Li Zheng asked Uncle Wang: "Uncle, where has my grandma been in broad daylight? Why is she not at home? When I called her, her phone was turned off at first, but then no one answered when I called her. I was a little worried that something was wrong."
After hearing this, Uncle Wang was stunned for a moment, and then he shook his cattail leaf fan: "It's okay, it's okay! What can happen? In this small county, the whole city can smell a fart in less than five minutes. If something really happened, I would have known about it a long time ago."
Li Zheng was still a little worried, wondering if he should go out and look for it?
Or report it?
But it hasn’t been 48 hours yet, right?
No matter how you look at it, this Uncle Wang is a bit unreliable.
Seeing that Li Zheng was very anxious, Uncle Wang comforted him: "Li Zheng, it's not Uncle Wang that I'm feeding you some reassuring pills. Just go back and cook your food. I promise..."
He turned around and took out an alarm clock from behind his back and looked at it.
"I guarantee that around six o'clock, your grandma will definitely be back."
"Ah?" Li Zheng asked doubtfully, "How do you know?"
Uncle Wang said proudly: "Of course I know, your grandma lives here, what can you hide from me? You will know it at six o'clock anyway... But today is your first day back, why isn't she waiting at home? You and I are also surprised... Li Zheng, there are some things you don’t know. Over the past year or so, your good news has been sent back one by one by the Armed Forces, with gongs and drums, firecrackers, and honor guards, etc., not to mention In addition, a group of people came just before you came back. The county magistrate, the county leader in charge of civil affairs, and the Ministry of Armed Forces came to your house carrying a plaque. The first-class meritorious officials made my eyes go straight... Your grandma is a big celebrity now! The county's veteran cadre activity center invites her to play every day, and she has been there recently. She must be having fun, but her ears are not working well, so she didn't hear your phone ringing..."
This was the first time Li Zheng had heard of these things, but Uncle Wang looked very confident, not like he was trying to lie to himself.
Thinking about grandma being retired, it is a good thing to have her own activities.
Maybe the old man was forgetful. When he came back today, he just made a phone call to tell him which day he would be home. When he answered the phone, he heard music from grandma's end, as if he was doing some kind of activity.
It seems that what Uncle Wang said is true, grandma is going to play.
When the time comes, he will naturally come back.
So, he could only go upstairs and go home again, and continue to tinker with dinner.
Five fifty.
An electric donkey drove into the campus and soon arrived at the entrance of the faculty building. The person driving the electric donkey was an old man with snow-white hair, wearing a white shirt, suit, trousers, leather shoes, and a Shanghai watch nose bridge and gold-rimmed glasses. He was about sixty years old. .
Sitting behind the little electric donkey is Li Zheng’s grandmother Xu Xiuqin
Xu Xiuqin got out of the car and greeted Uncle Wang: "Old Wang, are you eating?"
Uncle Wang lived in the gatehouse. Although the house was small, it had all the necessary equipment, including a sleeping room, and a small wing next to it, where a stove was built. He had no children, so his relatives introduced him to come here to look at the gate. This has been his home for more than 20 years.
At this time every day, he had cooked the vegetables early, put the small wine on the table, and was already eating and drinking there.
"Hey, Teacher Xu, have you just come back?"
Xu Xiuqin nodded and said: "Yes, I went to the Senior Activity Center today. There was a rehearsal for a program. It was too busy..."
Uncle Wang said, "Are you too busy? No wonder, Li Zheng is back and has been waiting for you all day. I thought something had happened to you and almost went out to call the police."
Xu Xiuqin said "Ouch" and looked back upstairs.
"Look, I've forgotten all about this... I'm old and my brain is really hard to use..."
Uncle Wang looked at Xu Xiuqin, then glanced at the white-haired and bespectacled peer, and said playfully: "Why are you old? I think you are still in your prime!"
