Chapter 32 Sorry! I am a police officer (Thirteen)
Zhuzi was now frightened and begged for mercy:

"Hey, brother, please be gentle. You almost broke my wrist."

Liu Zhiye was secretly annoyed that Zhuzi was a chatterbox and ignorant, and that he didn't know how to control his actions. He wanted to take this opportunity to teach him a lesson.

Teach him a lesson so that he will remember it and avoid getting into trouble that is difficult to resolve.

So, he deliberately exerted force on him with his hands and tormented him.

The deaf old lady saw that this young man who had just arrived at the compound had no moral principles and started to fight as soon as he said he would.

She hurriedly stopped Liu Zhiye and looked at him unkindly.

"Liu family boy, you can't just take Zhuzi away like this. If he is sent to the police station, how will he end up well?"

"Can you spare Zhuzi for the sake of the old lady? We are all neighbors, how can you force him to death~"

Liu Zhiye was also irritated by the old lady at this moment. He looked at the old lady with a cold face and sharp eyes:
"Old lady, you are being too serious. What do you mean by pushing me to death? It's not that serious~"

"It's a new society now, and the police station isn't as scary as it used to be. As for what Zhuzi did, there will be corresponding consequences, and the national law will be used to measure and deal with it~"

"You are talking about the friendship between neighbors. Everything else is easy to talk about. But this is a violation of the law and a disruption of social order. We cannot be merciful and disregard the national law..."

After talking to the old lady, he looked around at everyone with a serious expression and said:
"I'm sorry! I'm a police officer~"

Then he instructed Xu Damao:
"Comrade Xu Damao, among the young people in this compound, only the two of us have bicycles. Please take Second Auntie and let's go back to the factory together."

"Go to the factory hospital and give Second Aunt a physical examination and an assessment of her injuries."

Xu Damao declined unwillingly:

"Oh~ Chief Liu, it's not that I don't want to go~ It's like this, I have to get up early tomorrow to go to the countryside to show a movie."

"If this gets delayed, it will affect our rest. Can you please change someone?"

How could Liu Zhiye not know what Xu Damao was up to? He was just an old lady's urinal - a worthless person.

It means to instruct him intentionally.

Liu Zhiye frowned and glared:
"You were quite active just now, weren't you? Now that I really need your help, you become cowardly?"

"What's the matter? I'm talking, but it doesn't work, right?"

Xu Damao was so annoyed at this moment that he said:
"Hey, Chief Liu, look at what you said. You are a leading cadre. Of course your words are powerful. I'm going to go ride my bike in the backyard now~"

Seeing that Xu Damao was crazy, Liu Zhiye also said goodbye to his parents and said he would be back soon.

Afterwards, without caring about the different reactions of the crowd, he grabbed Sha Zhu's collar and dragged him away.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at the couple in Liu Haizhong with an unhappy expression and said to everyone:

"Go away~ Go away~ Wait for the security department to handle it~"

Then he shook his head, put on a sullen face, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Then everyone started whispering and scattered like birds and beasts.

When we arrived at the factory gate, Xiao Zhou, the security officer on duty, came out from the duty room to greet us.

He was shocked to see everyone coming here in the middle of the night. He didn't know what was going on.
When we meet, we say:

"Hey, Chief, what happened? Why are you here so late at night? What are you doing?"

Liu Zhiye called Xiao Zhou into the duty room and told him what happened. Finally, he said two words to him:

"Find a comrade to accompany Liu Haizhong and his wife to the factory hospital for a checkup. Then you can personally lock He Yuzhu up in the detention room and wait for me to come to work tomorrow, and then I can deal with this matter."

"Oh~ By the way~ It's getting cold, get him some bedding at night, don't make it too hard on him~"

He also said a few words to Liu Haizhong, saying that it was too late and they would go back first. If there was anything, they could find Secretary Zhou from the Security Department, as he had already made arrangements.

He turned around and greeted Xu Damao, and the two of them rushed back at lightning speed.

By the time we got back to the gate of the compound, it was already past 10 o'clock at night.

The social environment of this era is not like that of later generations. There are bright lights, wine and women, and a rich nightlife.

After eating or exercising, every household chooses to turn off the lights and go to bed early to save kerosene or electricity if they have nothing else to do.

In the dead of night, everything is so quiet that it makes people feel even more sleepy.

I knocked on the door, and after a while, a voice came from inside, asking cautiously:

"Who is it?"

Xu Damao yawned and said impatiently:

"It's me~ Xu Damao and Section Chief Liu, we're back~"

The people inside finally felt relieved and opened the vermilion lacquered door with a creaky sound.

It turned out to be Guan Dapeng. It looks like he will start working tonight.

Guan Dapeng nodded and bowed to the two of them and said:

"Chief Liu, Brother Damao, you two are back~"

Xu Damao didn't like him, gave him a sidelong glance and said:
"Hmm~"

"Hey guys, see you later~ I'm going to go first~"

After saying this, he pushed the cart away without looking back. He didn't notice that Guan Dapeng behind him lowered his head with a hint of viciousness in his eyes.

Xu Damao didn't see it, but Liu Zhiye saw it for real. He is now an expert in micro-expressions.

When Liu Zhiye saw this, he was shocked. It seemed that Guan Dapeng was not a good person. He secretly became wary of him.

He nodded to Guan Dapeng, they were not familiar with each other, and then prepared to push the cart home. But Guan Dapeng behind him suddenly said:
"Chief Liu, may I have a word with you?" Liu Zhiye's eyes narrowed, thinking to himself, I want to see what you are keeping in suspense.

Turning around, smiling:
"Dapeng, what can I do for you?"

Guan Dapeng seemed to be hesitant and worried. After a long pause, he said carefully:
"Chief Liu, do you have money? Don't worry, I'm not borrowing money~"

After saying this, he quickly glanced at Liu Zhiye's face, fearing that he would turn hostile.

Then he said:

"I have some old items at home, which are rare and valuable. I heard that they were made by some old people from the palace who were my ancestors."

"If you're interested, I can sell it to you."

Liu Zhiye's eyes flashed, and he pretended to be interested and said:
"It's such a good thing? How could you bear to sell it?"

Guan Dapeng sighed and said:

"Don't worry about your laughing at me, you know what's wrong with me!"

"My family is in a tight spot. Money is tight. I have no choice but to sell my family heirlooms to get money to help me out."

Liu Zhiye nodded seriously:
"Yeah, that's true. You're going to have to pay a lot this time."

"I'm curious, why did you think of selling it to me?"

Guan Dapeng paused:
"Uh~ this~"

Liu Zhiye didn't want to continue arguing with him, and thought to himself, I want to see what you guys are up to.

"How about this, it's too late now. After dinner tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, take your things and come to my house to find me."

"Let's see whether it works or not. How about it?"

Guan Dapeng was overjoyed and nodded and said:
"Thank you~ Thank you~ I will definitely come to see you tomorrow night~"

Liu Zhiye didn't waste any more words with him. He just nodded, said see you later, and turned away.

When he got home, his parents were a little worried about him and hadn't rested yet. Seeing him back, they didn't ask him what happened, but urged him to go to bed quickly.

----

October 1958, 10, Friday.

Early in the morning, the workers arrived at the Red Star Factory in high spirits and lined up at the factory gate waiting for inspection to enter the factory.

Waves of deep blue people gathered into a torrent.

"The East is Red, the Sun is Rising~"

"Someone appeared in the East..."

With the main theme of "The East is Red", the workers strode into the workshops and office buildings of the factory with their heads held high.

If you ask them why they are so happy today?

"Hey! It's the end of the month, it's time to pay salaries~"

Liu Zhiye also came to the guards on duty to check their performance.

The guards, who were standing straight with their heads held high, saluted immediately with their guns when they saw that it was their section chief.

Raise the gun to the chest with the right hand, with the gun body vertical and aligned with the button line, the gun facing backwards, about 10 cm away from the body, the muzzle at the same height as the eyes, and the upper arm lightly against the right side; at the same time, grasp the top of the sight with the left hand, with the forearm slightly flat, and the upper arm lightly against the left side; at the same time, turn the head to the right to look at Liu Zhiye, and look him in the face and see him off.

Liu Zhiye nodded in satisfaction. Yesterday he issued an order to fully militarize the security department. Today, changes have begun to take place in terms of guard duty. This is a good start.

Liu Zhiye returned the greeting, nodded and said nothing. Then, he walked into the duty room at the factory gate.

The person on duty is about to change shifts.

Secretary Zhou looked up and saw their section chief had arrived. He shouted:
"Stand at attention~Salute~"

Everyone in the duty room suddenly stood at attention and saluted, looking at Liu Zhiye.

They turned around, saluted, waved and performed other movements in one go, as smoothly and smoothly as flowing water.

Liu Zhiye returned the greeting and then gestured to them, the ceremony was over. He said with satisfaction:
"Very good~ Keep up the military style and take out the duty log for me to see."

After reading the duty log and checking some conditions in the duty room, he was generally satisfied, although there were some shortcomings and flaws, which he also pointed out one by one.

When I returned to the office, Secretary Zhou had just handed over his shift and knocked on the door and walked in, looking tired.

"Chief! The results of Aunt Liu's diagnosis at the hospital last night are out."

Liu Zhiye nodded, took out a box of Daqianmen cigarettes, took out a cigarette and lit it, then put the box on the table and motioned for Xiao Zhou to have one as well.

He blew out a smoke ring and asked:
"What's the specific situation?"

Secretary Zhou didn't bother to exchange pleasantries. He took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep puff, and blew out a smoke ring.

"Chief, there's nothing serious wrong with Aunt Liu. She just has swollen facial muscles and a slight concussion, which is a minor injury~"

"I was hospitalized for observation last night. I think I can go home today."

Liu Zhiye said "hmm" and then asked about Zhuzi's situation.

Secretary Zhou said with a smile:

"This guy from your compound is really generous. He snored all night in the detention room last night."

"Before dawn, he was yelling that he wanted to go to the canteen to prepare meals. He said he couldn't delay and had to make lunch for the workers. Hehe~ What did he think this place was~"
