The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1332 The Boss of the Light-Character Cards, Zhou Zhigang!

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, there was a knock at the door.
Lazily wrapped in his clothes, Zhang Cheng opened the door, yawning, and said, "Who is it?"

As soon as he opened the door, Zhang Cheng saw Zhou Zhigang with a serious expression, along with several people in police uniforms.
"Uncle, what are you doing so early in the morning? And bringing the police with you! I haven't done anything wrong, have I?"

Looking at Zhou Zhigang in front of him, Zhang Cheng immediately laughed, a little doubtful in his heart, wondering if he had been exposed? But after thinking about it, Zhang Cheng felt that it was impossible, after all, he was the notorious sixth man!
"Oh, so these are the people here to investigate what happened last night! By the way, where are your shoes? Take them out and compare them!"

When asked to speak to Zhang Cheng, Zhou Zhigang began to explain.
"My shoes are right on my feet!"

Zhang Cheng lifted his foot and laughed.

"Comrade, step forward and walk a few steps!"

As he spoke to Zhang Cheng, the police officer beside him began to speak as well.
"to make!"

Stepping out of the house, Zhang Cheng took two steps on the snow.
Squatting down, the comrades checked the shoes and asked, "Are there any other shoes at home?"

"That's all, I only have two pairs! They're the same style!"

Zhang Cheng smiled as he spoke to the police officer in front of him.

"Okay, thank you for your help!"

Seeing that the information didn't match the records, the officers turned and left.
"Uncle, since everything's alright, I'll go back to sleep now!"

Zhang Cheng smiled as he addressed Zhou Zhigang.
"Okay, you go to sleep first, remember to come for dinner later!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zhou Zhigang couldn't help but speak.
"Okay, I got some stuff from the black market last night. I'll add a dish for Uncle later!"

Looking at Zhou Zhigang, Zhang Cheng laughed.

"You went to the black market last night, you brat? Do you know you're about to take over your shift? You better watch yourself!"

Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Zhou Zhigang spoke with a serious expression.
"I understand, Uncle. They went there a long time ago, and no one saw them when they came back!"

With a broad smile, Zhang Cheng explained, then whispered, "Venus meat! Good stuff!"

"Alright, you can go back now. I still want to go for a walk around!"

After speaking to Zhang Cheng, Zhou Zhigang left with the police officers.

Watching Zhou Zhigang leave, Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes, then pressed down on something under his shoe twice.
Because he wasn't wearing his own shoes, but his father's.
"I almost got exposed as the sixth one! I'll have to be more careful next time!"

Looking guilty, Zhang Cheng turned and went back inside.
As the top worker in the optical character printing industry, Zhou Zhigang undoubtedly held a very high position, after all, he was an eighth-grade worker, the pinnacle of workers in that era.
Why did Zhang Cheng call him the top dog in the optical character printing industry? Because Zhou Zhigang was awesome!

Before liberation, they dared to borrow money from loan sharks to repair their houses, and in the end, they didn't have to repay the money because the borrowers ate peanuts. Who would have had the guts to do that back then!

Zhang Cheng was completely convinced that he was the leader!
Explosive Comment: So what if I borrow money at exorbitant interest rates? I could say I could fly to the moon!
After returning to the house and changing his clothes, Zhang Cheng washed his face with the cold snow water and instantly felt refreshed!

The Zhang family lived not far from the Zhou family next door, but they didn't have a courtyard; they only had two rooms of about eighty square meters each.
Zhang Cheng lived on the left. His room had partitions and a kitchen, which was also cluttered with a lot of things.

But since his father passed away, Zhang Cheng has moved to the right side.
As Zhang Cheng retrieved the venison from last night, he narrowed his eyes, sensing that this matter wasn't over so easily. This was merely a preliminary inspection; he estimated there would be another round.
However, Zhang Cheng wasn't worried. After all, if he were discovered, he wouldn't deserve to be the sixth brother!
Zhang Cheng took the knife out of the kitchen, noticed it was quite rusty, and started sharpening it on a stone.
As a legitimate chef, Zhang Cheng may not have much talent in cooking, but he's a good person! He faithfully follows his master Li Yicong's instructions, and Zhang Cheng dares to say that among chefs, no one is better at interpersonal relationships than him, not even Hannibal Lecter.
Therefore, sharpening a knife is the most basic thing!
"Hey, hey!"

Sitting on a small stool, Zhang Cheng sharpened the kitchen knife to a gleaming edge, as if it could be used to make people at any moment!
After boiling water and washing the spatula, Zhang Cheng began to busy himself in the kitchen.
With only a few seasonings, Zhang Cheng first made a stir-fried venison and a soup, then took it next door.

Just as Zhang Cheng entered, Zhou Rong came out. However, upon seeing him, Zhou Rong snorted coldly, her eyes full of disdain, and said, "Here you are again, trying to freeload!"

"Zhou Rong, how dare you speak like that! Have you forgotten how Uncle Zhang took care of you back then?"

Upon hearing Zhou Rong's words, Zhou Bingyi began to reprimand her.
During the famine years ago, Zhang Cheng's father gave the Zhou family a lot of subsidies, even taking a significant portion of their rations.
At that time, Zhou Zhigang was not an eighth-grade worker, and he had three half-grown sons in his family. Could they have enough food to eat?
Fortunately, Zhang Cheng's father was a truck driver and received subsidies from the factory, so he ate out most of the time; otherwise, it would have been a real problem!
Upon hearing Zhou Bingyi mention Zhang Cheng's father, Zhou Rong remained silent, but her face still showed considerable displeasure.

"Brother Bingyi, don't talk about Sister Rong. She's a selfish person. Let's ignore her and eat the venison. My friend made it for me last night!"

After serving the stir-fried venison, Zhang Cheng casually placed the soup down as well.

Smelling the aroma, Zhou Bingkun immediately came over and said, "It smells so good, Zhang Cheng, did you make this?"

"If it wasn't me, could it be you?"

Looking at Zhou Bingkun beside him, Zhang Cheng asked with a puzzled expression,

"Hey, I wish I had that skill!"

Reaching out, Zhou Bingkun grabbed a piece of venison and put it in his mouth, then exclaimed with delight, "Delicious, so delicious!"

"Hey kid, what are you doing? You just started hitting him!"

As Li Suhua came out of the house, she saw Zhou Bingkun's expression and immediately slapped him.
Seeing the chopsticks arrive, Zhou Bingkun picked up some meat and said, "Come on, Mom, try it. Zhang Cheng's cooking is so delicious! I never knew he had such skills!"

While eating Zhang Cheng's stir-fried venison, Li Suhua stared wide-eyed in surprise and exclaimed, "Huh? Little Zhang, you have this skill too!"

"Auntie, didn't I learn all of this by following you around?"

With a broad smile, Zhang Cheng began to explain.
"Come on, what did you learn from me! But your skills are almost on par with the chefs in restaurants!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Li Suhua began to praise him.

After all, to save money, she hadn't eaten at many restaurants, and she always felt that Zhang Cheng's cooking skills were about the same as theirs.

Hearing Zhou Bingkun and Li Suhua say this, Zhou Bingyi also stepped forward and said, "Yes, Zhang Cheng did a good job!"

Seeing everyone saying this, Zhou Rong looked around curiously, smelled the aroma, but her stomach betrayed her and started growling.

Squinting, Zhang Cheng looked at Zhou Rong and said, "Hey, someone said I'm freeloading. I wonder if I can even go without eating!"

"Hmph, fine, I won't eat it then! I don't believe you can cook it so well!"

glaring angrily at Zhang Cheng, Zhou Rong, being a stubborn woman, refused to eat, picking up the cornbread and starting to gnaw on it.
Seeing the two of them like this, Zhou Bingkun and Zhou Bingyi were speechless, because what kind of grudge or hatred could they possibly have?
However, Li Suhua still felt sorry for Zhou Rong and gave her some meat.
While Zhang Cheng wasn't paying attention, Zhou Rong took a bite and her eyes widened in surprise. She was certain that Zhang Cheng's cooking skills were even better than those of the head chef at Jichun Restaurant!
