The Courtyard House: The story begins with He Yuzhu beating up the White Widow.

Yan Bugui replied, "Over there, on Xinjiekou North Street, in Toutiao Hutong."

Upon hearing the location, He Yuzhu immediately thought of the North Suburbs Market. His eyes lit up instantly, thinking to himself, "These guys are really something! They're playing dirty tricks! No wonder so many people couldn't find it!"

Seeing He Yuzhu's reaction, Yan Bugui asked, "Zhuzi, can you find those people?!"

He Yuzhu snapped out of his daze and looked at Yan Bugui, asking, "Yan Bugui, what do you mean by this?!"

Yan Bugui said, "They should at least compensate me for the medical expenses and lost wages, right?!"

He Yuzhu then asked, "If you saw those people again, would you still recognize them?!"

Yan Bugui answered decisively, "I know them! I'd still recognize them even if they were reduced to ashes!"

"Alright! Just wait for the notification! We'll let you identify the person then!" With that, He Yuzhu turned and left.

Watching He Yuzhu leave the ward, Yang Ruihua asked, "Old Yan, do you think those guys who beat you up will be caught?!"

Yan Bugui said thoughtfully, "The fact that He Yuzhu came to ask means that those people committed a serious crime. I reckon we'll find them soon."

After leaving the hospital, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle straight to the North Suburb Market.

The peak shopping season for vegetables had passed, so there were hardly any shoppers in the North Suburb Market. Even the vendors at the stalls were chatting in small groups. He Yuzhu parked his bicycle and, the moment he entered the market, spread his divine sense, enveloping the entire market. As He Yuzhu walked further into the market, the surrounding houses also came within the range of his divine sense. Suddenly, He Yuzhu sensed something amiss in a few houses. He stopped and retrieved a bag from one of the houses, storing it in his spatial storage. Inside, He Yuzhu used his divine sense to open the bag, revealing the grain inside. He Yuzhu thought to himself, "I found the goods, but where are those people?!" Afraid of alerting them, He Yuzhu pretended to stroll around the North Suburb Market for a moment before leaving.

Half an hour later, He Yuzhu returned to the station on his bicycle. Without even parking it in the shed, he rushed into Ye Guoliang's office, panting, and said, "Uncle Ye, the grain has been found!"

"What?!" Ye Guoliang suddenly looked up at He Yuzhu and asked, "What did you just say?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "I've found the grain that was stolen from the South City granary!"

Ye Guoliang asked excitedly, "Where?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "The grain was hidden in several houses near the North Suburb Market."

Ye Guoliang pondered for a few seconds, then muttered, "These guys are pretty good at hiding things!" He then asked, "How did you find the food?!"

He Yuzhu then recounted to Ye Guoliang how Yan Bugui had been beaten and hospitalized. After listening to He Yuzhu's account, Ye Guoliang said, "You're something else! You're really cut out for our police force. Just based on a guess, you actually found the thing?!" With that, Ye Guoliang stood up, picked up his hat from his desk, and said, "I'll report this to the branch office right away." Then Ye Guoliang turned to leave.

"Wait!" He Yuzhu called out to Ye Guoliang, picked up the paper and pen on the table, wrote down the addresses of the houses where the grain was hidden, handed them to Ye Guoliang, and said, "Uncle Ye, you'd better take someone who can draw portraits to find Yan Bugui."

Ye Guoliang instantly understood He Yuzhu's meaning and said with a smile, "I understand!"

After Ye Guoliang left, He Yuzhu returned to the logistics department office, grabbed his lunchbox, and prepared to eat when Song Zhaohong stopped him: "Zhuzi, where did Director Ye rush off to just now?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "He went to the branch office."

"Oh!" Song Zhaohong responded, took out a form, handed it to He Yuzhu, and said, "If you're free this afternoon, go to the branch office and pick up our station's grain and oil for next month."

He Yuzhu took the list, glanced at it, and said, "No problem! I'll go over after I eat." Then, remembering the supply requisition list he'd seen from Song Zhaohong before the Lunar New Year, He Yuzhu asked, "Why is there less allocated this month than last month?!"

Song Zhaohong said, "Last month's increase was due to the approaching Chinese New Year. Now it's the normal volume."

"Alright! Leave this to me, don't worry!" With that, He Yuzhu put the form in his pocket and went straight to the cafeteria.

A little after 1 p.m., He Yuzhu arrived at the branch office on his three-wheeled motorcycle. After registering at the reception desk, He Yuzhu drove the motorcycle into the branch office and went directly to the logistics section. He parked the motorcycle, went inside, slammed the form on Ai Guowei's desk, and said, "Comrade Ai, I'm here to collect supplies!"

Ai Guowei looked up and saw He Yuzhu, then asked with a smile, "Why did your Deputy Director Song send you here?! Didn't you always send Lao Ma and Xiao Chen before?!"

He Yuzhu said, "Old Ma and Little Chen have been bullied by you guys, so you sent me today!" Then he asked, "Comrade Old Ai, what's wrong?! You seem to really not want to see me?!"

Ai Guowei laughed and said, "You know what, I really want to see you!" Then he asked, "When are you going hunting in the mountains again?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "That's hard to say. Besides, the stuff I get is first supplied to our station; only any surplus is allocated. Even if it were allocated, it wouldn't be to your branch office." He then asked, "Where's your Section Chief Lai?!"

Ai Guowei said, "Section Chief Lai has been promoted! He's been transferred to Jilin City in the Northeast to be the director of a branch bureau."

He Yuzhu looked puzzled and asked, "When did this happen?!"

Ai Guowei said, "It'll only be a matter of one or two days. Deputy Section Chief Shen Jun is in charge now."

He Yuzhu said, "It's good that the deadbeat is gone! You don't know, I gave him my way of buying seafood. And what did he do? He offended everyone! Now I have to clean up his mess."

Ai Guowei stamped the form and said, "Go directly to the warehouse to pick up your things!"

He Yuzhu said, "Okay! I'll talk to you again later." After saying that, He Yuzhu took the list and left.

No sooner had He Yuzhu left than Shen Jun emerged from the inner office and asked, "Old Ai, who just came in?!"

Ai Guowei replied, "He Yuzhu from the Nanluoguxiang Public Security Bureau. He's here to collect supplies."

Shen Jun said, "If he comes again next time, just let me know."

"Okay!" Ai Guowei replied and continued working.
