Siheyuan: Let Yourself Go He Yuzhu

Chapter 120 Hey, The Dark Knight Rises
"Director Wang, you're here." Yan Bugui immediately went to greet him in a fawning manner.

"Old Yan, no one has gone into the deaf old lady's house, right?" Director Wang asked.

"No! I asked Jie Cheng to guard the door the whole time." Yan Bugui said.

"Very good!" After Director Wang said that, he took everyone to the backyard, only to see Yan Jiecheng sitting on a bench, guarding the door of the deaf old lady's house like a door god.

Director Wang waved his hand, and people from the street, police station and security department tore off the seal on the deaf old lady's house and rushed in.

The beasts in the courtyard knew at a glance that the deaf old lady was doomed.

He Yuzhu narrowed his eyes and retreated behind the crowd calmly. All the animals in the courtyard were watching the excitement of the deaf old lady. They didn't notice that He Yuzhu had retreated behind them, let alone noticed that the shoes on He Yuzhu's feet were gone.

As soon as He Yuzhu's feet touched the ground, the internal structure of the deaf old lady's house appeared in He Yuzhu's mind like a three-dimensional image. He Yuzhu easily discovered the treasure hidden in the deaf old lady's home.

The deaf old lady was really cunning and knew the strategy of a cunning rabbit having three burrows. She divided the treasure into three parts and hid them all in the ground.

Judging from the layout, it is obvious that the first two were a cover-up and a psychological warfare was played.

The first of the three treasure hiding places of the deaf old lady is easy to find; the second one is hidden below the first one and can only be found if you look carefully.

The third set was the deaf old lady’s collection. He Yuzhu directly took away the deaf old lady’s real collection.

Director Wang and his team first conducted a rough search and easily found the first treasure hidden by the deaf old lady. When they opened it, they found two gold rings and a dollar envelope.

Director Wang naturally didn't believe the deaf old lady's wealth, so he had people check it carefully several times, almost digging deep into the ground.

Normally, people tend not to be so careful about places they have searched. This time, Director Wang checked it personally and finally found the second treasure of the deaf old lady.

Director Wang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, he subconsciously thought that the deaf old lady had not hidden anything. This was a psychological tactic.

When they opened it, they saw ten small yellow croakers, a jade pendant, two gold bracelets, and some antiques. Director Wang and others smiled immediately.

This trip was not in vain.

He Yuzhu also smiled. The real wealth of the deaf old lady was a big box, which was made of gold. There were fifty big yellow croakers and three hundred small yellow croakers in the box.

"You can't even imagine how wealthy the rich are. This deaf old lady is just someone's mistress, and she's so rich. The wealth the master must have taken away must be even more." He Yuzhu thought to himself.

He Yuzhu was happy for a moment, then suddenly froze and realized, "Why do I need so many yellow croakers? I have the ability to distribute them, so why do I need so many yellow croakers?"

"Just go and get whatever you want. Anyway, in a sense, I am the master of the new world. Gold, banknotes and the like are just equivalents of exchange. I can completely skip these and take the supplies directly." He Yuzhu realized in his heart.

After Director Wang registered the property looted from the deaf old lady's home, he convened a meeting of the entire hospital and announced the deaf old lady's various crimes and whereabouts.

Since what the deaf old lady had done in the past was outrageous to both humans and gods, the beasts in the courtyard were naturally very happy when they heard that the deaf old lady had been punished.

In the end, the deaf old lady was sent to a nursing home to fend for herself.

The above verdict was made mainly because the deaf old lady was too old. If she were to be punished, she would definitely not live more than a month. So, they simply let her fend for herself in a nursing home.

In such a famine year, the food in the nursing home could not be guaranteed at all. It was normal to go hungry for nine meals in three days. The deaf old lady probably wouldn't live long.

After Director Wang made the announcement, regardless of everyone's reactions, he packed up the deaf old lady's bedding, clothes and other belongings and sent them to the nursing home. The deaf old lady herself was sent to the nursing home without even showing her face.

"Director Wang, how should the house of the deaf old lady be allocated?" After Director Wang and his group left the courtyard, Yan Bugui chased after them and asked quietly.

"The deaf old lady's house has been taken over by the street. Old Yan, I know what you mean. You want to apply for these two houses, but your family does not meet the application requirements."

"Old Yan, in consideration of your contribution this time, I would like to remind you that housing in our city has always been in short supply. Many people are eyeing this house. If you want to apply for a house, quickly find a formal job and then apply again." Director Wang said in a low voice, then walked away.

Director Wang's words seemed to be giving Yan Bugui some advice and suggestions, but in fact, he was just trying to please Yan Bugui.

Just as Director Wang said, there is a housing shortage in Beijing, and so many eyes are watching the houses. Once a house becomes vacant, it will be taken. Those who understand will understand.

For example, Liu Haizhong’s house. Not to mention that Liu Haizhong had already left, just when Liu Haizhong was about to leave, the house was reserved by the leader of the steel rolling mill.

Even if Yan Jiecheng has a formal job, he still has to apply; even if Yan Jiecheng is first in line, someone will replace him.

Yan Bugui don’t even think about it. Unless the house is in a very bad environment, no one will apply for it. However, if you wait a few more years, someone will apply for the house even if it is in a bad condition.

Yan Bugui had no idea what was going on, and he happily went home to discuss the house and job matters with Yan Jiecheng.

When Yan Jiecheng heard that his father would not only find him a house but also a job, he was extremely happy. However, it was too early for Yan Jiecheng to be happy. Yan Bugui was so calculating, how could he possibly give Yan Jiecheng money for free to find a job?
Yan Jiecheng was dumbfounded when he heard Yan Bugui's harsh conditions. However, Yan Jiecheng had no money, so he could only do whatever Yan Bugui said.

In the end, only after Yan Jiecheng signed the plan that made him extremely aggrieved did Yan Bugui take out money to find a job for Yan Jiecheng.

Qin Huairu was very pessimistic when she learned that the deaf old lady was sent to a nursing home. Qin Huairu knew that the situation in the courtyard had changed drastically. She would be lucky if she didn't get eaten out by the big guys, not to mention taking advantage of them like before.

With the departure of the deaf old lady, Qin Huairu lost her only ally and once again experienced the feeling of being alone. Fortunately, Qin Huairu had her mother by her side to accompany and guide her.

Under Qin's mother's constant persuasion, Qin Huairu began to think about remarrying again.

As for Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu now doesn't consider Jia Zhang's opinion at all. After He Yuzhu popularized the law several times, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang's status in the family were completely swapped.

Jia Zhang was definitely against Jia Zhang's remarriage, but no matter how much Jia Zhang opposed it, it was useless. Jia Zhang had to come back alive first.

Even if she came back, Jia Zhang would never treat Qin Huairu as unscrupulously as before.

Yi Zhonghai, Jia Zhang's biggest backer, is dead. The third uncle who Jia Zhang could rely on to take charge of the affairs of the entire hospital, as well as the deaf old lady and others are all gone if Qin Huairu chooses not to pretend.

If Jia Zhangshi is sensible, it's fine. If Jia Zhangshi doesn't make a fuss, then we can only drive Jia Zhangshi back to the countryside. He Yuzhu didn't care about these bullshit things. He just felt very comfortable. No one would point fingers at him anymore.

"The only beast left in the courtyard is Qin Huairu. It depends on whether Qin Huairu is honest or not. If Qin Huairu still wants me to help her and suck my blood like before, don't blame me for being rude."

"Next, it's time to do something practical." He Yuzhu said to himself.

He Yuzhu made up his mind that if Qin Huairu was not honest, he would find an opportunity to marry Qin Huairu off. As long as Qin Huairu stayed away from the Siheyuan, there would not be so many troubles.

That night, He Yuzhu climbed over the wall and sneaked out of the courtyard. He spent the whole night running to the archives of each street and counting the number of poor people in each street area.

The scope of the old city at that time was far smaller than that of later generations. The Third Ring Road had not yet been built, and outside the Second Ring Road were rural areas. If it were in later generations, it would be impossible to figure out these data in ten nights, let alone one night.

During the day, He Yuzhu staggered to the steel mill to catch up on his sleep. Anyway, Ma Hua, Fatty and Liu Lan were already able to work in the big pot, and the investigation team was still in the steel mill, so Li Huaide didn't dare to cook a small meal for the reception. He Yuzhu caught up on his sleep during the day and went off work on time.

At night, He Yuzhu went out for a walk and used the same method as last time to get rid of the biggest Hey City.

Afterwards, He Yuzhu began to distribute food according to the list.

He Yuzhu discovered that even in times of famine, the food was enough for everyone to eat. If these people took less, such difficulties would not arise.

He Yuzhu once again remembered the line: It doesn’t matter, the key is not to make mistakes.

The more He Yuzhu thought about it, the angrier he got. He couldn't help but take a deep breath and look up at the starry sky.

It was the darkest moment before dawn. He Yuzhu suddenly said in a hoarse voice: "It is the darkest moment before dawn. I promise you that dawn will come soon."

"The world needs a hero. A superhero! With great power comes great responsibility. I won't be a good neighbor. I'll be the Dark Knight."

"It's decided happily. I will work in the steel mill during the day and play a game of wits and courage with the remaining beasts in the courtyard, waiting for the bats to spread their wings at night." He Yuzhu said to himself.

The unusual movements in Hey City once again attracted the attention of all parties. Compared with the previous lack of clues, this time, a bat logo appeared.

All the teams had to join forces, but unfortunately, no useful clues were found in a short period of time. As time went on, no useful clues would be found.

Where there is light there is shadow, and shadow naturally comes from light.

He Yuzhu had just distributed food when someone broke into the homes of the poor families. He Yuzhu hid in the dark and secretly memorized the figures of these people.

In the next month, He Yuzhu did not act blindly. During the day, he went to the library to borrow various professional books he needed and brought them back to the steel rolling mill to read. At night, he either went to get the materials he needed or went to departments such as the security department to get some weapons. He Yuzhu visited all of them.

One night a month later, it was dark and windy, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

That night, Qin Huairu, who had just finished her confinement, decided to go to work the next day and was ready to use all means to take down He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu came to the Sijiu City Bell Tower. In the dark and silent night, the huge bell on the Sijiu City Bell Tower began to ring under the push of He Yuzhu.

The deep, long and lingering bell sounded slowly. At the same time, a searchlight, a generator and other equipment appeared on the roof of the bell tower.

Following He Yuzhu's operation, a circular beam of light shot up into the sky and a bat symbol appeared in the night sky.

People awakened by the bell came out to watch. At the same time, personnel from the street and police station quickly came to the bell tower. Before they arrived, He Yuzhu packed up his equipment and left.

From a distance they had the impression of a huge bat flying in the dark.

Not long after, many places collapsed. These collapsed places were naturally the places where the people took away everyone's food a month ago.

He Yuzhu roared through the night sky in a bat fighter.

The so-called bat fighter is a modified and strengthened aerial tricycle. The consciousness space is a powerful plug-in for He Yuzhu. He only needs to understand the principles and structure, and the rest can be done with a clap of his hands.

He Yuzhu used the high maneuverability of the Bat Fighter to distribute it to the needy households in the four cities4.

Then, He Yuzhu hid in the dark. If they dared to take back the grain this time, don't blame He Yuzhu for being ruthless. This time, only the empty houses collapsed, and next time it will be the houses with people in them that will collapse.

This time, after getting the food, everyone learned to be smart and immediately made the food into steamed buns, wowotou and the like and ate them right after they were made. Even if they took back the food, they couldn't take back what they had eaten.

With the active cooperation and collaboration of all parties, the situation gradually calmed down. In order to avoid being exposed, He Yuzhu quickly returned to his home in the courtyard.

He Yuzhu had just returned home and lay down for less than ten minutes when Yan Bugui asked Yan Jiecheng to knock on every door. Yan Bugui gathered everyone in the yard.

Yan Bugui did this not to catch the murderer or anything like that. He never thought about it that way at all. After receiving the notification from the street, he knew that many places had collapsed and he was afraid of an earthquake, which would cause casualties.

That's why Yan Bugui gathered everyone together. No matter what, when the situation was unclear, it was safer to stay in the yard than at home.

The reason why Yan Bugui was so active was that he naturally wanted to resume his position as the manager. Although the position of manager did not come with salary or staffing, it did have many hidden benefits. At the very least, he would be able to stay informed, and the manager would be the first to get the news of anything that happened in the street in the future.

Yan Bugui does not intend to take advantage of being a door god, but is prepared to seek benefits for himself through information asymmetry and time difference.

Although everyone was extremely sleepy, they thought that their lives were more important. Besides, it was already late spring and early summer, so it would not be cold even if they slept in the yard.

Yan Bugui organized everyone to take turns on duty, and then let everyone sleep in the yard. Those who could move their beds out would move them out to sleep; those who could not move them out would sleep on straw mats on the floor.

At this time, Qin Huairu found He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, I can't move my bed. Can you lend me the bed in your room? It's okay for adults, but children can't sleep on straw mats or on the floor." Qin Huairu pleaded in a delicate and weak manner.

Qin Huairu's expression could easily arouse men's desire to protect her. He Yuzhu glanced around and saw that Liu Gen and others were vaguely ready to make some moves.
