Chapter 29
1 Police Station
Zheng Xiaohong paced around the office.
Captain Liu: " Chief, it's bad. Scarface's men have surrounded the police station."
Zheng Xiaohong: " What's the big deal? It's not the first time they've surrounded the police station."
One-track-mind: (Entering the office) Bureau Chief Zheng, I'm sorry. We received a report that someone was hiding the drug in the police station to avoid being attacked. In order to prevent anyone from transferring the stolen goods, we had to conduct a forced search.
Captain Liu: " Searching for stolen goods is the duty of the police. What right do you garrisons have to search the police station?"
One-track mind: Usually, it was common for the police to steal from the inside.
Captain Liu: " You have no evidence, so how can you conclude that we're the police station's thief?"
One-track mind, Bring him up? Captain Liu, do you still recognize him?
Captain Liu thought, Isn't this Old Zhang, who is in charge of the warehouse? What was going on?
One-track-mind: Tell me, where did you get the drugs you sell?
Old Zhang: " I'll tell you, I'll tell you. All the drugs I sell are from the warehouse?"
One-track-mind thought, Why is there an antidote in the warehouse?
Old Zhang: I don't know, I really don't know.
One-track-mind: Then why are you selling drugs?
Officer Zhang: " I saw that there was some in the warehouse, so I secretly took some out to sell. I didn't keep an account anyway, so no one would know if I sold it."
One-track-mind, Captain Liu, what else do you have to say?
Captain Liu said,"Old Zhang, don't talk nonsense."
One-track-mind: Captain Liu, why did Old Zhang say such nonsense? You're not feeling guilty, are you?
Zheng Xiaohong: " Captain Liu, just take them to the warehouse to search. Won't we know if there is anything?" If they thought that there was something wrong with other places, they could search them.
Captain Liu,"This, this is too much."
Zheng Xiaohong: (Stop them with a gesture) Don't say anymore, take them to search.
2. The Police Station
Zheng Xiaohong sat back in his office and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. That was close.
Memories (flashback)
Dong Chen: Dad, did you guys find a batch of drugs?
Zheng Xiaohong,"Why don't you study hard? Why do you care about this?"
Dong Chen: " The key is the source of this batch of drugs. With a powerful backer, the police won't dare to openly search for them. Now that they've searched for them, is it safe to leave them at the police station?"
Zheng Xiaohong: " If the police station isn't safe, where else is safe?"
Dong Chen: " I heard that some of your police officers stole this batch of drugs and sold them?"
Zheng Xiaohong: How is that possible?
Dong Chen said,"Dad, tell me. Even I know about it. What secrets are there?"
Zheng Xiaohong,"I arranged for Captain Liu to deal with it."
Zheng Dongchen: Are you sure you've dealt with it now?
Zheng Xiaohong: I'm not sure, but I've already told Liu Xianren.
Dong Chen replied,"I mean, get rid of it now." Who knew how many people would be harmed if this batch of smoky soil was allowed to flow into the smokehouse.
Zheng Xiaohong: Are you saying that we have to be vigilant at night?
Dong Chen: " Of course. Think about it. What secrets do you have to tell Scarface?"
Zheng Xiaohong: " Alright, you guys take your time to eat. Don't wait for me. I'll go to the police office."
3 Military Camp White
Scarface and Mr. Wang were drinking tea.
Mr. Wang: Division Commander Zhang, what should we do with the police station's drugs?
Scarface: What else can I do?
Mr. Wang: " I think the drug is a small matter. The important thing is to get rid of Zheng Xiaohong, the police chief. Otherwise, keeping him alive will only cause trouble for us."
Scarface said,"That's true."
One-track mind: Teacher.
Scarface asked,"What's wrong? Did you find it?" Still unhappy?
[One-track-mind: There's nothing in the warehouse, and the entire police station couldn't find it.]
Scarface: How could that be? Didn't you bring the police who sold the drugs?
One-track-mind: We searched the warehouse. According to the police, it was not the case when we opened the packaging.
Scarface thought,"Could it have been transferred?"
One-track-mind: We checked the warehouse, but it seems that no one has touched it.
Scarface asked,"Who did this?"
Police Station Warehouse (Memory Shot) Night
Zheng Xiaohong and Gan Wu moved the cigarettes away, and Zheng Dongchen put the same package back in place.
Zheng Xiaohong: Dongchen, what are you doing?
Dong Chen: (Clapping his hands and sizing him up) Is there a difference?
[Gan Wu: No difference.]
Zheng Dongchen: " It's good that there's no difference. Let's go."
[Gan Wu: Young Master, why are you doing this?]
Zheng Dongchen: " Scarface will definitely send someone to search. Wouldn't it be good if nothing is out of the ordinary?"
5 Military Camp White
Scarface flew into a rage.
Scarface asked,"How did you search? What did the police say?"
One-track-mind: What else could the policeman say? He couldn't figure out if it was because Old Zhang wanted to cover up the matter of selling and selling the drugs. He deliberately said that he had stolen them from the police station's warehouse. He thought that we couldn't do anything to him and didn't dare to search.
Scarface,"Beat that policeman Old Zhang to death."
Mr. Wang: " This police officer knows that you're a garrison. There's no need to lie to us."
Scarface said,"County Head Wang, we have to think of another way to get rid of Zheng Xiaohong."
Mr. Wang thought to himself,"It's too easy for him. Let him stay in this position for a few more days." Ah, you kidnapped students from school in the past. Isn't County Head Jiang's daughter, Jiang Lei, in the same class as Wang Jin's son? Aren't they about the same age?
Scarface replied,"It's about the same."
Mr. Wang: I have an idea.
Scarface asked,"What can you do?"
Head Guard Wang whispered into Scarface's ear.
6 County Government White
Mr. Wang returned to the county government office.
Mr. Wang: Secretary Zhang, please inform Wang Jin to come to my office. I have something to discuss with him.
Secretary Zhang: " County Head Wang, didn't Chief Wang just leave?"
Mr. Wang: " Come back with me. I'm a deputy county head. I'm giving him face. Why is he getting impatient?"
Secretary Zhang,"That's not it."
Mr. Wang: " What kind of secretary are you? Even my words are discounted."
Secretary Zhang: " I dare not. I'll inform him immediately."
7. White School
The students were reading extra-cursory books in the classroom.
Xie Yuhan: 'The article on' Weekly Review 'is critical of the current situation. It hits the nail on the head. Good, good.'
Chen Ken: " Many of the articles here were written by Li Dazhao and Chen Duxiu. They also specifically introduced Russia's October Revolution. These articles are very good."
Xie Yuhan: I've read Li Dazhao's " Victory of the Commoners ". I like to read reviews of major domestic events.
Chen Ken: Mr. Li Dazhao also wrote about the Old Maradonism. I don't understand what the Old Maradonism is. Is it similar to anarchism?
Dong Chen: The October Revolution was the victory of the Old Marism in Russia. It was the victory of the peasants and the peasants. It had nothing to do with anarchism.
Xie Yuhan,"Oh, Dongchen, you've read all these articles, and you understand them so well."
Jiang Lei: " Don't shout. Wang Xiankui might come to school again one day. As long as he doesn't like it, it will be banned." The last time he had been fooled, the next time would probably not be so good.
Wang Guowei: I read the least of these books. If there's anything, don't drag me into it.
Xie Yuhan: " Let's just say that Wang Guowei was the one who got these forbidden books. Everyone knows that the son of the finance director has a lot of power."
Wang Guowei: You're just blaming me, I'm not talking to you anymore.
Dong Chen said," We still have to think of a way. We can see these books at any time, but we can't let Wang Xiankui find them. Everyone knows that these books are hard to come by."
Xie Yuhan thought,"Yeah, they even searched the teacher's dormitory. Where can they hide?"
8 County Government
Wang Jin walked into Mr. Wang's office.
Wang Jin: County Head, you were looking for me.
Mr. Wang: Wang Jin, please sit down for a while. I have something to discuss with you. Secretary Zhang poured tea for Chief Wang.
Secretary Zhang: Alright. Chief Wang, have some tea.
Wang Jin: " If the county head has anything to say, just give the order. There's no need to be polite."
Mr. Wang: (Sitting on the sofa) Wang Jin, I remember you have a son. He's 15 or 16 years old, right?
Wang Jin: " Yes, his name is Wang Guowei. He's 16 years old and is studying in the county high school. He doesn't do his job properly and spends all his time outside. He rarely spends time at home."
Mr. Wang: You haven't married yet, right?
Wang Jin: Not yet. The matchmaker did mention a few, but there was no final betrothal gift.
Mr. Wang: " That's good. Now that there's a ready-made marriage, and it's a match of equal status, are you willing, Chief Wang?"
Wang Jin: " County Head Wang, what are you talking about? You're an elder and can make decisions. I wonder which family's daughter you're from?"
Mr. Wang: Speaking of which, we are all familiar with each other.
Wang Jin,"Oh, what kind of fortune did that kid have to be able to get the favor of an elder like you?"
Mr. Wang: I haven't said which family she's from. What are you grateful for?
Wang Jin: " What are you saying wrong? I'm afraid he won't be able to get it even if I beg him."
Mr. Wang,"Then I'll say it." Would the daughter of County Head Jiang humiliate him?
Wang Jin,"You mean Jiang Lei?"
Mr. Wang: Yes, you're not satisfied. This is a good thing.
Wang Jin,"I'm satisfied. How can I not be satisfied?" I'm just afraid that my kid isn't worthy of County Head Jiang's daughter.
Mr. Wang: Division Commander Zhang and I want to personally matchmake them. Tell me, Jiang Zhongxiong is a respectable person, right?
Wang Jin: That's great. I can't wait.
Police Station White
Captain Liu walked into the bureau chief's office.
Captain Liu: " Chief, I heard that Scarface and Mr. Wang have joined forces to vouch for Wang Guowei, the son of Finance Chief Wang Jin, to propose marriage to County Chief Jiang's daughter. Don't you think that's giving County Chief Jiang enough face?"
Zheng Xiaohong: " It's a political marriage. Guang 'an will belong to Scarface in the future."
Captain Liu thought to himself,"It really does have that kind of taste."
[Zheng Xiaohong: Scarface, Jiang Zhongxiong, Head Guard Wang, and Wang Jin have formed a small group. Guang 'an will be an iron plate from now on.]
Captain Liu: " Isn't Scarface covering the sky with one hand and trying to rope in Jiang Zhongxiong? What are they doing?"
Zheng Xiaohong,[Who are they trying to deal with?]
Captain Liu: That's right, no one is their match.
10 County Government
Scarface, Head Guard Wang, and Wang Jin walked into the county head's office.
County Chief Jiang: " Commander Zhang, you're here. What instructions do you have?"
Scarface asked,"Brother Jiang, why do I sound like I'm teasing you?"
County Chief Jiang: " Every time Division Commander Zhang comes to denounce me, I'm trembling with fear. It's like I'm walking on thin ice."
Scarface: " What I brought this time is a good thing. We'll be a family from now on. We need to get closer."
County Head Jiang: Family? Division Commander Zhang, I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it.
Scarface said,"Chief Jiang, you're treating me like an outsider. I haven't finished speaking yet."
Mr. Wang: County Chief Jiang, it's like this. Commander Zhang and I are here today to matchmake Wang Jin's son, Wang Guowei, and your young miss, Jiang Lei.
County Head Jiang: Matchmaker? What matchmaker? Don't confuse me. You guys are really full of tricks.
Spray of Flowers: " County Head Jiang, I've seen Jiang Lei before. She's a good match for the Wang Family's Wang Guowei." County Chief Jiang, as long as you agree, the Wang family will send the betrothal gifts over tomorrow.
County Chief Jiang: (voiceover) They are trying to pull me into the team. If I don't agree, they will think of a way to deal with me. If I agree, what will they do next? Let's take it slow first. (Verbal) Commander Zhang, County Head Wang, thank you for your love for my daughter. However, it was too rushed and I was not mentally prepared at all. The Wang family is also a big family in Guang 'an. It is my daughter's fortune to be able to take a fancy to her. Please allow me to go home and discuss with my wife and daughter before giving you an answer.
Scarface replied,"Of course, Chief Jiang won't disappoint us."
11 White School
On the avenue, Zheng Dongchen and Jiang Lei were talking in the garden.
Jiang Lei: Have you heard?
Dong Chen: What did I hear?
Jiang Lei: My family wants me to get married.
Dong Chen: " What are you thinking? Marriage is a big deal. If you don't want to get married, then don't. What else can they do to you?"
Jiang Lei: I'm afraid it's not that simple. It's not up to me.
Dong Chen: What do you want me to do?
Jiang Lei: " If you say no, I won't. I'll listen to you."
[Dong Chen: How is this related to me?]
Jiang Lei: Stand closer and look at me. As long as you say the word, I'll go with you. Chengdu, Shanghai, Japan, anywhere.
Dong Chen thought,"How did it come to this?"
Jiang Lei: I might not come to school in a few days. Come here. (Jiang Lei planted a kiss on Dong Chen's cheek and left quickly.)
12 Sunset on the Avenue
Xie Yuhan and Li Liling walked out from the shadows.
Xie Yuhan,"Idiot, can't you tell?" Jiang Lei likes you?
Dong Chen: What do I see? What can I do? Who could stop her? Could Jiang Lei go against her father's wishes?
"Don't you like Jiang Lei?"
Dong Chen replied,"I do like it, but I've never thought about getting married."
Li Liling: Do you want to see Jiang Lei marry someone she doesn't like and suffer for the rest of her life?
Xie Yuhan said,"Why don't you take Jiang Lei and go wherever you want? Go far away and never come back."
Dong Chen thought,"That's not good."
Li Liling: " What's wrong with that? Hurry up and make a decision. You're not usually like this."
Dong Chen: Let me think.
Xie Yuhan thought,"Why are you still so wishy-washy at a time like this?"
Night on the 13th Street
Zheng Dongchen stopped Wang Guowei.
Dong Chen said,"Wang Guowei, stop right there. I have something to tell you."
Wang Guowei said,"If you have something to say, say it. I'm listening."
Wang Guowei, are you sure you want to marry Jiang Lei?
Wang Guowei thought,"Can't I?" I like Jiang Lei.
Dong Chen: Does Jiang Lei like you?
Wang Guowei replied,"It's her business whether she likes me or not. As long as I like her, that's enough."
Dong Chen: Marriage without love is immoral. Wang Guowei, you are too selfish.
Wang Guowei: " What's wrong? I know Jiang Lei likes you. She doesn't like me at all. As for what you two do together, I don't care at all. I don't want to care either. I just want to marry her. That's enough."
Dong Chen: Wang Guowei, are you still human? You bastard.
Wang Guowei: " So what if I'm not human? I'm a bastard. So what?" You guys usually look down on me, laugh at me, and treat me like a fool. I don't care. I want to marry Jiang Lei. If you guys are unhappy and unhappy, I'll let you be unhappy and unhappy.
Dong Chen: " National Guard, if any of the students did not do well, I apologize to you."
Wang Guowei: " Stop pretending. I'm not listening. I'm telling you, I'm going to marry Jiang Lei soon. My dad said that after we get married, we'll leave Guang 'an. We can go to Chengdu, Shanghai, or Japan as long as we're willing."
Dong Chen: You, you.
Night on the 14th Street
Dong Chen stood on the street in a daze, not knowing what to do. Chen Ken, Xie Yuhan, and Li Liling surrounded him as they watched Wang Guowei leave.
Chen Ken,[How did Wang Guowei become so unreasonable all of a sudden?]
"Liling, do you want to marry someone you like or someone who likes you?"
Li Liling,"Xie Yuhan, what are you doing?"
Dong Chen thought, Maybe Wang Guowei is right. He likes Jiang Lei.
Xie Yuhan: " Love is selfish. Wang Guowei doesn't deserve Jiang Lei at all. Dongchen, you have to think for Jiang Lei too. Is Jiang Lei happy to marry Wang Guowei? The person Jiang Lei likes is you."
Chen Ken: Aren't you going to fight for it?
Dong Chen replied,"I didn't mean that."
Xie Yuhan: " Why are you hesitating? Take out your courage and go for it. We support you."
Dong Chen: No, this.
Li Liling: " Think about it. Happiness depends on yourself."
[Dong Chen: What do you think I am?]
Jiang Lei's Evening
The county head returned home from work.
Mother Jiang: Xiaolei locked herself in her bedroom and refused to come out. She said that she would never agree to marry Wang Guowei.
County Head Jiang: " I've seen that kid from Wang Jin's family. He's a decent person. Xiaolei won't lose out if she marries him."
Mother Jiang: " Jiang Lei is so proud. Are they suitable to be together?"
County Head Jiang: " I have no choice. Scarface and Head Guard Wang are my suitors. Their goal is to rope me in. If I refuse, I'll be their next target."
Mother Jiang thought,"This concerns my daughter's happiness. I can't be too hasty."
County Head Jiang: I also think so. I don't like Wang Jin, but he only has one son. If Jiang Lei marries him, she won't mistreat him. Go and ask Xiaolei to eat. Don't starve.
Mrs. Jiang,"Okay, I'll call her for dinner."
County Head Jiang: " Keep an eye on her these few days. As long as she marries him, it'll be easy."
Jiang Jiawan
Mother Jiang walked to the door of Jiang Lei's bedroom.
Mother Jiang: " Xiaolei, dinner is ready. Come out and eat. You haven't eaten all day."
Jiang Lei: (on the bed, covering her ears with a pillow) I'm not eating, I'm not eating.
Mrs. Jiang said," Xiaolei, sleep for a while. When you're hungry, ask them to heat it up before eating."
Jiang Lei couldn't fall asleep on the bed. She kept turning and angrily grabbed the pillow and threw it at the door.
17 East Morning, Home Late
Zheng Dongchen buried his head in his meal.
Dongchen's mother: " Dongchen, why are you so absent-minded? You dropped your food on the table several times."
Dongjiao: " It's not normal. Brother, are you sick?"
Dong Chen: What disease? Don't make trouble.
Grandma: The Wang family is going to marry into the Jiang family. Are they all your classmates?
Dong Chen: Yes, Grandma. How did you know?
Grandma: " Everyone on the street is talking about it. Do you think Grandma can't hear it?" I've seen Jiang Lei before. She's not bad. As for the Wang Clan's Royal Guards, I've seen them before. They're too honest and unworthy.
Dong Chen said,"Grandma, don't talk about him. Your grandson is even worse."
Grandma: Dongjiao, what's wrong with your brother? He's blaming himself.
Dongjiao,"Him? Maybe some girl ignored him."
Grandma,"Is that how you describe your brother?"
Campus White
Dong Chen seemed to be waiting for something in the garden when Xie Yuhan walked over.
Xie Yuhan said,"Jiang Lei won't be going to school anymore. She's preparing for her wedding at home."
Dong Chen: Yes, I know.
Xie Yuhan thought,[It must be hard. The person you like is marrying someone else, but the groom isn't you.]
Dong Chen: What a joke. Do I look like someone who has been lovelorn?
Xie Yuhan: " Let me see. It looks a little like him, but it doesn't look like him at the same time. Actually, he just broke up."。
Dong Chen: You told me to wait for you in the garden to mock me.
Xie Yuhan thought,"Do I look like someone who would build his happiness on someone else's?"
Dong Chen had done a lot of tricks to make fun of others.
Xie Yuhan thought,"You don't know how to be kind. Forget it." Look. (Holding a note in her hand)
Dong Chen: What is this?
Xie Yuhan said,"This is a note from Jiang Lei. She's getting married the day after tomorrow. She wants you to meet her at the West Gate Storytelling Teahouse tomorrow night. She's probably going to elope."
Elopement? What are you thinking? You have such a rich imagination.
Xie Yuhan said," Look at the situation now. Who's joking with you? You can see for yourself. It's not like you don't know whether it's Jiang Lei's handwriting or not."
19 East Morning, Home Late
Zheng Dongchen sat in front of his desk, not in the mood to do his homework.
Dongjiao: You've been looking at me all night. Haven't you seen enough?
Dongchen: " Dongjiao, let me ask you, if I go on a long journey, will you miss me?"
"Of course I do." If I miss you, I'll write to ask you to come back.
Dong Chen: If I'm not back yet, you have to listen to your parents and take care of Grandma.
Dongjiao: Of course I will take care of Grandma. Do I need you to tell me?
Dong Chen said,[Touching Dongjiao's head] Dongjiao has grown up.
"Brother, why are you talking so strangely?" Look at how much taller I have grown.
[Dong Chen: Remember what you said.]
Dongjiao replied,"Got it." Brother, you have to listen to me. Don't run around. There are bad people outside.
Zheng Dongchen carried a bag and quietly slipped out of the house.
Ximen Wan
Zheng Dongchen walked into the West Gate Tea House.
Waiter: Little brother, drink tea and listen to storytelling. It's two cents. Drink your tea.
Dong Chen: Here, this is the money for the tea.
Waiter: Alright, little brother, sit here.
Boss Xiao, who was talking about storytelling, said happily," Wu Song had drunk eighteen bowls of wine and walked up to his post step by step. He was mostly sober when he was blown by the mountain wind. He saw that on the tree that had been stripped of its bark, there was a notice from the government. It clearly stated that there were big insects on Jingyang Ridge. All the passing merchants and pedestrians had to pass the post in groups at noon to prevent the insects from hurting people.。。。。。
Zheng Dongchen listened to the storytelling while looking at the city gate.
Policeman: " Hurry up, those who want to enter and leave the city, hurry up. The city gate is about to close."
Dong Chen: (Anxious) Why isn't Jiang Lei here yet? We can't get out of here once the city gates are closed.
Waiter: Little brother, do you want more tea?
Dong Chen: " Tian, buddy, let me ask you something. Do the city gates usually close early?"
Waiter: Yes, the city gate is usually closed at this time. But don't worry, little brother. Our teahouse is still early. If you want to drink tea, go ahead.
21 East Morning, Home Late
Grandma was ready to go to bed.
Grandma: " Dongjiao, where's your brother? It's so late, and you haven't seen him?"
Dongjiao: " Brother stayed in the bedroom after dinner. He said he wanted to sleep and didn't want me to disturb him. He even chased me out."
Grandma: " You believe his words? He's just a night owl. How could he fall asleep so quickly?"
Dongjiao,"Then I'll go and take a look. Why don't I chase him out?"
Grandma: If he's asleep, then forget it. Let him sleep.
[Dongjiao: (Entering Dongchen's room) Brother, I'll watch you sleep. You sleep.]
Grandma: Dongjiao, what's wrong? You're unhappy that your brother isn't playing with you when he's asleep.
Dongjiao: " Grandma, Brother is lying. He wasn't in the room at all. He put the pillow under the blanket and made me beat him for a long time. There was no one there."
Grandma: Haha, didn't you see your brother go out?
Ximen Wan
The city gate slowly closed with a sizzling sound.
Dong Chen thought,"Buddy, the city gates are closed so early. What if someone wants to leave the city?"
Waiter: There's no other way. We can only wait until tomorrow morning.
Dong Chen:
Waiter: Are you going out of town? We can only wait until tomorrow morning. If you want to stay in the hotel, we have clean rooms.
Dong Chen: I'm not staying. He did not leave the city.
Waiter: Little brother, if you need anything, just let me know.
Dong Chen: Alright.
Xie Yuhan, Li Liling, and Chen Ken walked into the teahouse.
Xie Yuhan said,"You're so free, drinking tea here."
[Dong Chen: Is Jiang Lei here?] They couldn't leave the city now. The city gates were closed.
Li Liling,"No need to wait."
Dong Chen asked," What's wrong? Jiang Lei isn't here. What happened?"
Xie Yuhan said,"Something happened. Don't get too excited. I'll explain it to you slowly."
Dong Chen: " It's really crazy to meet a slow doctor. Tell me, I can still afford it."
Xie Yuhan,[Jiang Lei is under house arrest and can't come. That's all.]
Dong Chen:
Xie Yuhan said,"Hold him up, what is he doing?"
Dong Chen: Go, go. (ran out)
It was raining heavily outside, and Zheng Dongchen was running in the rain.
