Chapter 797 Conceptual Issues, Discussion
Listening to the sounds coming from the police station from afar, Zhou Tian's mouth curled up slightly, and he turned around and went to the black market.
At the very least, he would not leave until these people were caught. After all, he had placed several national treasures in the basement of the black market boss's house.
He didn't want these national treasures to fall into the hands of the Japanese because of his mistake.
Coming back to the courtyard where the black market boss lived, Zhou Tian avoided the sight of the two people at the door, jumped onto the top of the wall, and then went to the roof of the main house. His spiritual sense enveloped the entire courtyard.
He sat on the roof, waiting for the police to arrive.
About half an hour later, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he heard a series of footsteps running hurriedly from a distance. In his mind, about thirty armed police officers came one after another, tightly surrounding the courtyard in front of him.
"Who?"
Just then, perhaps because the noise outside was a little loud, a loud shout suddenly came from the door.
"Don't move, police!"
Following a charge, the two people at the door were instantly disarmed by the police who rushed in. Then there was a sound of breaking down the door, and more than a dozen police officers rushed into the courtyard.
Looking at this scene, although Zhou Tian admired their ability to act, he also felt that they might have alerted the enemy a bit.
Sure enough, a burst of gunfire was soon heard in the backyard, and the two sides began to fight.
"Xiao Zhang, get out of the way, be careful!"
The gunfight lasted for about an hour before it slowly came to an end. Zhou Tian knew the result without even watching it, especially as more than a dozen police officers came in from the back door to provide support, the battle ended even faster.
When Zhou Tian saw in his spiritual sense that the police had taken control of the situation and even discovered the entrance to the basement, he slowly retreated and disappeared into the night.
The next day, when Zhou Tian got up to see Zhao Jia and Shen Yulin off, he faintly heard a lot of people talking about the gunfight in the black market last night. Even according to these people's narration, what happened last night quickly became unrecognizable.
There are even more exaggerated statements!
However, he did not correct this statement. After all, what happened last night had nothing to do with him.
After dropping Zhao Jia off not far from the steel rolling mill, Zhou Tiancai took Shen Yulin all the way to the Chinese medicine hospital. However, neither of them noticed the deep envy in Zhao Jia's eyes.
After sending Shen Yulin to the Chinese Medicine Hospital, he returned to the Fifth Research Institute. As soon as he walked into the office and had not yet changed his clothes, the office phone rang.
"Hello, this is the Fifth Research Institute. I'm Zhou Tian. Who are you looking for?"
When Zhou Tian picked up the phone, he heard Liu Yuan's voice on the other end.
"Dean, I'm Liu Yuan. Miss Wu and I have entered the Forty-Nine City!"
"What? Where are you now?"
When Zhou Tian heard it was Liu Yuan, he immediately asked.
"Dean, we are at my house now!"
"Okay, wait for me, I'll be there soon!"
Before Liu Yuan finished speaking, Zhou Tian hung up the phone and walked outside, shouting, "Xiao Wu!"
"Dean, are you looking for me?"
Hearing Zhou Tian’s shout, a young man in a Zhongshan suit walked out of the house.
"Xiao Wu, I have to go out for something. If you have anything to say, wait until I come back. Also, if anyone wants to see me, ask them to wait! Got it?"
"Got it, Dean!"
Xiao Wu responded, and saw Zhou Tian sitting in the driver's seat, starting the car, and leaving the Fifth Research Institute.
Yard 32, Dongyangguan Hutong.
Liu Yuan was asking his wife to help change the diaper of Wu Yue'e's child, while Zhou Min was sitting at the door, looking around vigilantly and listening to a group of women chatting in the yard.
As a large compound near Dongzhimen, most of the residents here are family members of Dongzhimen factory employees. There are so many people and it is hard to tell what is going on. If they really hadn't been out, they wouldn't have settled here.
After all, the fewer people who knew about Wu Yue'e's affairs, the better. He didn't want his elder brother's career to be tarnished because of Wu Yue'e's affairs. Although he was also very clear that since Wu Yue'e had been brought into the city by his elder brother, this matter could not be concealed.
But at least, you still need to hide for a while before being exposed.
"Xiaomin, don't be so nervous! Don't worry, no one here will do anything bad to Miss Wu!"
After watching his wife and Wu Yue'e change the diapers of the two children, Liu Yuan came out and looked at Zhou Min's nervous face and couldn't help but smile and said.
"I know, Brother Liu, did my eldest brother say when he would come over?"
Zhou Min did not relax his vigilance because of Liu Yuan's words. Instead, he asked in a low voice.
"No, but the dean said he would come as soon as possible!"
Liu Yuan shook his head. In fact, he felt that the dean and Zhou Min seemed to be a little too vigilant. After all, in this era, he thought it was normal for a man to have several wives. After all, polygamy had only been abolished for more than ten years.
Monogamy has not yet been completely rooted in people's minds, and various cases of adultery are emerging one after another in the countryside. He does not think there is anything wrong with the dean having a new lover.
Although doing so might definitely leave a stain on his official career, based on his understanding of the dean, it seemed that the dean had no intention of pursuing a career in officialdom, otherwise he would not have been so independent and eccentric in Jin Province.
However, having said that, Liu Yuan also knew that it would be better to keep this matter secret. After all, the current situation was not peaceful, and it would be best not to expose it.
While the two were talking, they didn't know that a group of women were also talking about them in a low voice.
"Sister-in-law Li, how come this relative of Xiao Liu's is a woman who came to Sijiu City with two newborn sons? Is she a widow?"
"Yes, you haven't seen her, but I have. This relative of the Liu family is as pretty as a fairy. Even I feel moved when I see such a beautiful woman. Sister-in-law of the Li family, you live right next to the Liu family. Tell me what's going on. If she is really a widow, I will introduce my brother-in-law to her!"
"Come on, don't even think about it. I heard from Xiao Liu's family last night that she already has a man, but her family couldn't afford it, so she came to Sijiu City to look for him. And I also heard that he is an official! Don't make such random guesses, be careful of what you say!"
The woman called Li's sister-in-law glanced at the two women beside her and couldn't help rolling her eyes.
She knew exactly what these people were thinking. After all, this relative of Xiao Liu's family was so beautiful that she was like a fairy. She was also someone they could think about.
If she hadn't known last night that the child already had a man, it would not have been the turn of these gossips to worry about her. She would have burned her home to her own son long ago.
Thinking about how her son is already so old but still doesn't have a wife, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
