Chapter 33: Little Sister—Liu Zhiruo Returns Home (I)
Liu Zhiye frowned and thought for a while. The judicial appraisal showed that the injuries of the second aunt were minor injuries. So Sha Zhu's behavior did not constitute a criminal offense, so he could only be punished for violating the Public Security Administration Law.

According to Article 43 of the "Public Security Administration Punishment Law", anyone who beats another person or intentionally injures another person shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days and fined not less than one yuan but not more than five yuan.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhiye made a decision in his mind. He called Secretary Xiao Zhou, and the two of them went to the detention room to deal with Sha Zhu.

Looking through the window of the detention room, I can see that the room is fenced in half in the middle. There are tables and chairs outside the fence for conversation, and beds inside the fence for prisoners to rest.

Sha Zhu was now lying on the bed, with his legs crossed. He was humming an unknown tune, clapping his hands on his legs, looking quite carefree.

"Look, I have a clue now~"

"What did we say at the beginning~"

"You pay the money, and I'll do the running."

"Make sure we split the profits equally, and don't let me share the losses~"

……

Liu Zhiye signaled Xiao Zhou with his eyes to open the door. After the two entered the detention room, Sha Zhu heard the noise and saw that it was Liu Zhiye.

He quickly got up and started performing while lying on the iron fence.

"Ah~ Brother, why did you come just now? Are you going to let me out? You don't know~ I suffered a lot last night~"

As he spoke, he pretended to wipe his tears. It would have been more realistic if there had been background music.

"Iron doors, iron windows, iron chains
Hold on to the iron window and look out

How beautiful is life outside

What day will I return to my homeland
......"

Liu Zhiye was also amused by Sha Zhu's expression. You don't know your situation at all, but I actually believed you now.

Liu Zhiye had a blank expression on his face and decided to scare Sha Zhu:
"Zhu Zi, you may not be handsome, but you have beautiful thoughts~"

"Still thinking about getting out~ Get ready for jail time~"

Sha Zhu only felt a "boom" and his head exploded like a bolt from the blue.

His face was pale, and his words were full of fear:
"Brother~ No way~ You are not teasing me, my brother can't stand being scared~"

Liu Zhiye didn't respond, but just took out a cigarette silently, took out a cigarette and put it into Shazhu's trembling mouth, then took out a lighter and lit it for him.

Although Liu Zhiye did not say anything, his action frightened Sha Zhu so much that he was almost out of his wits.

He took two puffs of the cigarette, trembling, and choked because he smoked too quickly.

There were tears on his face, I don't know if they were tears of choking or tears of fear. He knelt on the ground in an instant.
The silly pillar howled and cried:
"Brother, please help me, I don't want to go to jail, and I haven't married yet~"

"If I go to jail, I'll be ruined. I won't be able to keep my job. I won't be able to find a wife. My sister is still young, what can I do~"

This time Sha Zhu was really scared. He knew that if he got into trouble, it would be worse than the previous ones.

After Shazhu howled for a while, Liu Zhiye felt that he had scared him enough and that too much was as bad as too little.

Liu Zhiye suddenly said:
"Zhu Zi, do you really want to avoid jail?"

Sha Zhu laughed "Ga" and stopped wailing after hearing that. What does that mean? It seems like there's something else behind what I'm saying.

"Ah~ Brother, I definitely don't want to, that grandson wants to go to jail~ But for me, do you have any solution?"

Liu Zhiye nodded silently.

"There is a way, it depends on whether you follow it or not~"

Sha Zhu nodded frantically as if he had grasped a life-saving straw:
"Brother, as long as I don't go to jail, I'll agree to whatever you say~"

"Well, that's good. First, you need to get the forgiveness of Uncle and Aunt, and actively make compensation."

"Second, help me promise not to make the same mistake again. Make a written promise and then make a self-criticism at the meeting of the compound."

"In addition to this, you will be fined 5 yuan and detained for 5 days. Do you understand?"

What choice does Shazhu have at this moment? Of course he agrees. No matter what he does, it is much better than going to jail.

"Well, you stay here peacefully. I'll have someone call your uncle and aunt over later, and you two families can talk and see if we can reach an understanding."

Then, Liu Zhiye walked out of the detention room, returned to the office, and asked Xiao Zhou to bring Liu Haizhong and his wife over.

After Liu Haizhong and the second aunt came over, Liu Zhiye asked them to sit on the sofa and personally poured them two glasses of water.

Although Liu Haizhong was a leader in the compound, he looked very important. But after the couple entered Liu Zhiye's office, they suddenly felt restrained, as if they were reporting to the leader again, and they felt uncomfortable all over.

Liu Zhiye saw the embarrassment of the two of them and felt a little amused. They really didn’t think of me, the section chief, as a cadre. Do you know what a cadre is now?

After some polite conversation, Liu Zhiye got straight to the point.

"Uncle, Aunt, please come over here. You know what's going on even without me telling you."

"Regarding the punishment of the pillar, due to...according to...it can only be..."

"So, uncle and aunt, let's stop while we're ahead. Zhu has received the punishment he deserved, and you can get the compensation you deserve. This is a good deal. Now that the matter is over, how about it?" Liu Haizhong and his wife looked at each other and felt that this was the best outcome, so they all agreed to this solution.

Afterwards, the two of them said goodbye, expressing their gratitude, and rushed to the detention room to discuss compensation with Zhuzi.

After dealing with Sha Zhu's matter, Liu Zhiye went to Director Jiang's office upstairs.

"Boss, good morning. Are you busy?"

Jiang Yifu was wearing glasses and reading a red-headed document. He looked up and saw that it was Liu Zhiye. He pointed to the chair opposite him and motioned for him to sit down first.

After he finished reading the documents, he took out a box of cigarettes from the drawer and threw it to Liu Zhiye.

Liu Zhiye caught it and took a look. Wow! It's the special supply Giant Panda. What a good cigarette! He quickly took out a cigarette, lit it up, and blew out a beautiful smoke ring. He took the rest of the cigarette and put it into his pocket.

Director Jiang smiled and said:

"You're not here just to get some free money, are you? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't beat around the bush. I'm busy right now," he said, waving the documents in his hand.

When Liu Zhiye heard that his leader was also busy, he cut to the chase. So it was like this. Yesterday, because of Sha Zhu's matter, he went to the factory late at night and felt it was too inconvenient.

He thought, it would be great if he had a phone at home. Unless there were special circumstances, if there was anything, he could just make a phone call and wouldn't have to run around.

When Director Jiang heard Liu Zhiye's purpose, he looked at him with a strange expression.

"Zhiye, you can't afford it at your level. According to regulations, only cadres at the county and department level and above can be allocated telephones at home."

Liu Zhiye thought about it and realized that he had taken it for granted. What era was this? The country had only been established for less than ten years, and telecommunications technology was not yet well developed.

When China was just liberated in 1949, there were only 21.8 telephones in the country, which was very few. The telephone penetration rate in my country was only 0.05 per 1 people, that is, there were only 5 telephones for every 1979 people. Even in 0.41, years later, the telephone penetration rate in my country was still very low, only per people. Ordinary people could only install telephones after the reform and opening up. With the adjustment of the communication industry system and mechanism and the adoption of new technologies, telephones became popular.

Thinking of this, he shook his head embarrassedly, smiled, and didn't mention the matter again.

Then he thought about it again, changed the subject and said:
"Director, I actually have an immature idea. It's because I think the quality of the security department's training is worrying~"

Seeing Director Jiang signaling him to continue, he continued:

"So I want to increase the intensity of training and apply to the security department for a plan for regular field training."

Director Jiang said seriously:
"Field training? Tell me the purpose of this~"

Liu Zhiye organized his words and continued:

"The main purpose of the Security Department's regular field training is to:

“First, improve military quality: Through field training… we will sharpen the military quality and combat style of the comrades in the security department and strengthen their…

Second, temper their "wildness": Field training can... cultivate their strong will and tenacious fighting spirit.

3. Improve combat effectiveness: By implementing random guidance and command... the overall combat effectiveness of the troops can be improved.

4. Test the actual combat capability...

5. Promote physical and mental health…

Six simulated combat environments......"

After hearing this clear and innovative training method, Director Jiang was amazed:
"Good, very good. Comrade Zhiye's suggestions are very insightful."

"Although most of the security department members are retired military personnel, they are of varying quality, and lack rigorous training after retirement. It is still unknown what kind of combat effectiveness they can have~"

"It is very necessary to pull them out, find out the situation, and then conduct corresponding organizational training."

Liu Zhiye smiled and said to Director Jiang:

"Director, do you agree?"

Director Jiang took out a cigarette, lit it and took a puff. He tapped the table with his fingers and said:
"If we really want to conduct a training exercise, we can't just send out the security department alone. We need to bring along the public security department, the fire department, the training department, the escort team, and the transportation department. We should conduct field training in batches without affecting the operation of the security department."

"Go back first, make a detailed plan, and report it to me in writing. I will go to the factory committee to apply."

Liu Zhiye stood up, saluted, said "yes", then said goodbye and left.

----

After finishing another busy day's work, I stretched my body.

Today is Saturday, and Liu Zhiye decided to get off work early and go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things. Her sister Liu Zhiruo will be home in the evening.

He and his sister hadn't seen each other for many years, and he missed them very much.

When I got home and just parked the car, I saw a young girl running out of the house, like a free-flying bird, and dived into Liu Zhiye's arms.

"Brother~"

She was wearing a blue school uniform, with two braids and bright eyes, which showed her expectation and hope for the future. Her graceful figure, smooth lines, and youthful vitality and vigor made people marvel.

Liu Zhiye looked carefully at the girl in front of him, whose youth was blooming like a flower, full of infinite vitality and passion.

It was her younger sister, Liu Zhiruo.
