Courtyard House: A System Connecting Two Worlds, Resources for the Nation

"Comrade! Comrade!"

Xu Damao scrambled forward and grabbed the edge of the small window tightly.

"Comrade, I'm innocent! I'm really not an enemy agent! I was just confused for a moment."

"Please, please talk to the leader for me, let me see the leader. I really know I was wrong, I apologize to Comrade Zhou Feng..."

The person delivering the food was a young man who didn't even look at him. He simply pried his hand open, slammed the small window shut again, and continued on to the next cell to deliver food.

Xu Damao pounded on the door frantically, but there was no response from outside.

Only a slightly gloating voice came from next door: "Kid, it's no use. The rule here is that unless they want to find you, no one will say a word to you. You can shout yourself hoarse and no one will pay attention. Save your breath."

Xu Damao finally slumped down, resigned, muttering to himself, "Zhou Feng, it's all your fault!"

"No way?"

At this moment, Zhou Feng's eyes widened as he looked at Bai Ling: "The Special Operations Division really arrested Xu Damao? Why?"

Bai Ling picked up a piece of meat and happily stuffed it into her mouth. The pork belly that Zhou Feng brought was really delicious when stir-fried!

Looking up at the guy opposite him with wide eyes, a smile crept onto his lips.

Strictly speaking, it's because of you.

"Me? Am I that important?"

Zhou Feng pointed to himself, but Bai Ling smiled and said, "Of course it's not just because it's important. You met with Director Sun from the Special Operations Division, but Xu Damao is going to report you because of it."

"So, he's not targeting you, but Director Sun. Of course, the Special Operations Division has to teach him a lesson!"

Upon hearing her words, Zhou Feng nodded as if he had just realized what she meant.

However, his mind was still focused on the double portal inside his body.

Bai Ling said she was "educating" Xu Damao, but from this perspective, this education was definitely not easy.

For the entire afternoon, the energy of those two energy-piercing devices seemed to explode, rapidly increasing!

It even surpassed the extent to which Sha Zhu and Xu Damao were stripped naked in the steel rolling mill back then.

What did those people from the Special Operations Unit do to provoke Xu Damao? I hope they don't drive him crazy!

We can't do things that kill the goose that lays the golden eggs; we'll still need him to provide emotional support in the future!

Meanwhile, in the Special Operations Division, Sun Yue also convened a meeting with several team leaders.

The two men in the second group were still grumbling, "If I'd known we could catch someone today, I would have gone to the vicinity of the target earlier. It's been too long since we made a move, and our bodies are all stiff!"

After everyone arrived, Sun Yue placed a document on the table, and everyone reviewed it.

Inside were Xu Damao's intelligence and all his information.

"Director Sun, our comrades in Nanluoguxiang have reported back that Xu Damao's arrest has not had any negative impact on the target."

"it is good."

Sun Yue crossed his arms, rested his elbows on the table, and looked at the people in front of him.

"Xu Damao was a projectionist at the Third Steel Rolling Mill. His wife, Lou Xiao'e, came from a capitalist family and had questionable conduct, but had not committed any major illegal acts before."

"His report on Comrade Zhou Feng this time was purely an act of personal revenge. The night he was following Comrade Zhou Feng, I was the one who contacted Comrade Zhou Feng."

"To prevent him from further influencing Comrade Zhou Feng, we detained him. Was there any procedural flaw in this process?"

Upon hearing Sun Yue's words, the people present exchanged glances, and a comrade wearing glasses stood up.

"Director Sun, based on the existing regulations, the charge of 'suspected false accusation and intent to disrupt social order' is basically a subjective judgment and has not caused widespread impact, so it is problematic in principle."

"but…"

The moment Sun Yue frowned, he uttered the word "but".

"However, in accordance with the instructions from higher authorities to do everything possible to ensure the absolute safety and stability of Comrade Zhou Feng, and considering the importance of Comrade Zhou Feng to the future development of the Dragon Kingdom."

"Xu Damao's behavior is not directly harmful, but if he continues to harass and falsely accuse Comrade Zhou Feng, it will indeed have a great impact on Comrade Zhou Feng."

"This kind of interference, when applied to Comrade Zhou Feng, will affect his condition, and thus affect the progress of our entire plan to 'cooperate' with him."

"Therefore, I believe that taking control measures against Xu Damao is necessary and reasonable, and I will also make a trip to the Third Steel Rolling Mill and the Subdistrict Office to inform them of this matter."

This long speech immediately transformed Sun Yue's furrowed brows into a smile.

"Then let's do it this way. We can't let Xu Damao go. We can't be sure if he will continue to harass Comrade Zhou Feng after we release him."

"yes!"

After the meeting ended, Sun Yue walked to the window, looked at the prison that wasn't too far away, and fell into deep thought.

These people are now mostly focused on giving Zhou Feng freedom and clearing away any interference or obstacles around him.

Xu Damao was nothing more than an unlucky fly that stumbled upon him.

Meanwhile, Lou Xiao'e, who had been running around outside all day, had just returned home, feeling very frustrated.

Before she even entered the courtyard, she noticed that the neighbors around her were looking at her with rather strange expressions.

"Second Aunt, what's wrong with you all? Why are you all staring at me like that?"

As soon as Lou Xiao'e asked, the second aunt didn't hide anything and told her directly that someone had seen Xu Damao being taken into a jeep by two people in Zhongshan suits at noon.

"Yeah, yeah, Ezi, did your Da Mao offend someone? I saw that person just 'crack' and pin Da Mao down!"

"Wait a minute, I remember he was yelling this morning that he was going to report Zhou Feng!"

"Zhou Feng is fine now, but he's in jail. Did he offend someone?"

Lou Xiao'e was stunned. First, she was shocked, and then she went around asking around on the street in disbelief. Indeed, many people had seen Xu Damao being taken away.

Well, now she doesn't have to sulk or throw a tantrum!

In a moment of panic, Lou Xiao'e went to the police station immediately, hoping to find Director Zhao to get the details. However, he only told her in a formal manner that they did not know the specific reasons, only that Xu Damao had indeed been taken away by a special department.

It was so special that even these "hat uncles" (a term referring to men in hats, often implying they couldn't casually inquire about someone else's case.)

Since the police station couldn't help, she could only run towards the Third Steel Rolling Mill. At least it was a classified unit, and perhaps the factory director could talk to the Special Operations Department!
