Chapter 39 Showdown

At the gate of the scrap station, Li Heng watched Fang Xiaoya jumping away happily. He instantly felt that this was a child who had not grown up. He shook his head in a funny way and walked into the yard.

As soon as he entered the gate, Lao Zheng, who was sitting outside the guard room, asked with some gossip: "Er Heng, are you dating? This girl is good, she is pretty, and she is a police officer. You can do it. She has been with you for less than a month since you came back."

A life-long matter has been resolved."

"Old Zheng, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. Those are the children from the house next door when our family first arrived in Sijiu City. They are ordinary friends." Li Heng waved his hand and said.

"Hey, that girl is interested in you. I can tell by the look in her eyes when she looks at you. If what I said is wrong, I'll dig out these tricks for you."

"Come on, why do I need your tricks? It's not for food or drink."

While they were talking, a few people walked in outside, saying they wanted to buy some scrap wooden boards and the like. Lao Zheng pointed them to the place.

"Er Heng, don't believe me..."

"Okay, Lao Zheng, stop talking. I didn't see it. You old guy still loves to talk."

"Old guy? Are you talking about me? I'm only in my early fifties, how old am I? Go and find out who among the secret doors in Chaoyang is not afraid of me when they see me."

"Hey, you're still playing fancy!" Li Heng's eyes widened when he heard this. Good guy, such a good guy. You still dare to find a secret door. You are really fearless!

"Uh..." Lao Zheng also realized that he was a little too excited and told all the secrets. He smiled awkwardly and explained: "Well, I made a mistake. That was all before liberation."

"Oh, Lao Zheng, you don't need to explain to me. You can take care of your own private affairs. But if you are caught by the police because of this, then there is no negotiation for your dismissal. I think you should take it easy. You think you are

If you are not old, why don't you find someone?"

Find a?

A trace of sadness flashed in Lao Zheng's eyes.

He also wants to find someone who doesn't want to have a warm bed at night and someone to talk to, but...

Alas, it’s hard to put it into words.

Li Heng saw that Lao Zheng did not speak, but fell into an inexplicable emotion, so he did not continue speaking, but stood up directly.

"Okay, I'll go back to the office. If anyone wants to sign something, please knock on my door."

"okay, I get it."

"Brother Li"

Just as he was about to leave, another person came in at the gate. Seeing that the person he was looking for happened to be at the door, he quickly shouted with a smile.

The moment Li Heng saw the person coming, he was a little confused. He never expected that Xiaoyuan's classmate would come directly to his door.

Then another thought came to my mind: Are you targeting Lao Zheng?

"You are Song...Song Qimin, I remember correctly, Xiaoyuan's middle school classmate."

"Brother Li has a really good memory."

"Come on, come on, Comrade Song, come and sit in my office." Li Heng smiled, shook his hand, and invited.

"Brother Li, you can just call me by my name or Qi Min."

Qi Min? Wouldn’t it be a bit feminine to call her this way?

Looking at the backs of the two of them walking towards the office, Lao Zheng, who had been sitting there without moving, frowned deeply.

Song Qimin came here today, which was really a bit rash. Both he and his leader thought that he was a newcomer, so they came to see Li Heng as an excuse to see what was going on here, so they would not alert the enemy.

But he didn't expect that Lao Zheng had actually seen him. Although it was just a glimpse, it was enough for him to remember that face.

For a person like Lao Zheng, he never believed in coincidences, otherwise he wouldn't be alive now.

However, something happened after all.

Lao Zheng sat there and sighed secretly. He had been cautious for most of his life, but he still didn't get a good ending.

However, which link actually caused the problem?

In fact, since he was sent out to infiltrate the army here, and later stayed in the city to work due to injury, he has never done anything bad, including Lao Meng, who repaired bicycles.

Having lived here for so many years, he knew very well that trying to do something in the current environment was simply courting death.

In the city, there are many groups that have remained from those days, and a few groups have indeed done a lot in recent years.

But in Lao Zheng's opinion, the things they did were just sabotage and had no effect on the overall situation. For example, in the explosion last November, all the casualties were ordinary people.

He and Lao Meng belong to the same group, and there are only two of them in this group. They both have the same goal now, which is to live well as ordinary people.

The two of them have been in frequent contact these days. In fact, he asked Lao Meng to help find out who was responsible for last year's explosion.

Unexpectedly, I had a vague piece of information and was approached by someone here.

It seems that Lao Meng left some hands and feet behind and they were bitten by others.

After thinking of this, Lao Zheng sighed again, then slowly stood up and walked to the guard room.

In the office, Li Heng and Song Qimin were talking nonsense.

He knew that people came to see him just in passing, and the purpose was to see Lao Zheng. He happened to have nothing to do at the moment and was happy to accompany this boy named Song to amuse Menzi.

It took a full hour before Song Qimin stood up and said goodbye.

"Er Heng, are you okay now?"

After seeing off the boy named Song, Li Heng walked into the courtyard from the gate for the second time in the afternoon, and Lao Zheng stopped him.

"Ah? No... nothing's wrong, what's wrong, Lao Zheng?"

"It's okay. Come, sit here and chat with me for a while." Lao Zheng patted a chair next to him.

Only then did Li Heng notice that the old boy had brought out another chair at some point.

"The guy who came to see you just now is from the Social Affairs Bureau, right?"

The words in a very calm tone sounded like a bomb exploding in Li Heng's ears.

"Old Zheng, what did you say? What is the social situation?" Thanks to his superior mental quality, he did not show any flaws. He asked with some doubts as if it was the first time he heard the name of this unit.

And his expression made Lao Zheng puzzled. Did this guy really not know?

"you do not know?"

"What should I know? What does the unit you are talking about do? Why did you say my brother's classmates are from that unit?"

Li Heng's expression was so well-predicted. That kind of confusion and confusion made Lao Zheng, an old fox, believe most of his words.

The reason why I don't have full faith is just because of my profession.

"Do you know the past Bureau of Statistics?"

Damn it, does this old boy want to show off his cards? But why do he want to show off his cards with me? Li Heng's brain started to work at an extremely fast speed.
