With the support of their neighbors, they will definitely be able to find out the truth and protect the interests of the lumber yard.

Han Xiaodong went home and bought a pound of Lao Sijiucheng sesame paste.

Han Xiaodong set out on his journey home with a heavy heart. The conversations about his neighbors Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang made him feel stressed, and he realized that he might be involved in a dangerous incident. However, he did not want this worry to affect his life, so he decided to divert his attention and temporarily put aside his worries.

Walking into the courtyard, Han Xiaodong smelled a fragrance, and he remembered the old Sijiucheng sesame paste that he had not tasted for a long time. So he decided to go to the small shop on the street and buy a pound to take home.

In the shop, Han Xiaodong saw the kind proprietress who was busy weighing and packaging food for a customer.

"Hello, boss lady!" Han Xiaodong greeted warmly.

The proprietress looked up when she heard the familiar voice and said with a smile, "Oh, it's Han Xiaodong. Long time no see! What are you buying?"

"I want to buy a pound of Lao Sijiucheng sesame paste." Han Xiaodong said with a smile, his mood becoming cheerful with this simple purchase.

The proprietress nodded, took out a piece of sesame paste, put it on the scale and weighed one pound, then carefully wrapped it in wrapping paper and handed it to Han Xiaodong.

"Here is your sesame paste, ten dollars in total." The proprietress handed it to Han Xiaodong enthusiastically.

Han Xiaodong took the sesame paste, handed the boss lady ten yuan, and said with a smile: "Thank you, boss lady, goodbye!"

"Goodbye, Han Xiaodong, remember to come often!" The proprietress said goodbye to Han Xiaodong with a smile.

Han Xiaodong returned home in a good mood, carrying the sesame paste. He put the sesame paste on the kitchen cabinet, looked at it with satisfaction, and felt a sense of warmth and satisfaction.

Suddenly, the ringing of a cell phone broke his peace. He picked up the phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, this is Han Xiaodong." Han Xiaodong answered the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Han Xiaodong, I'm the person in charge of the lumber yard." A steady male voice came from the other end of the phone, "I'd like to ask you to come over. I need to discuss something with you."

Han Xiaodong was startled, wondering what the person in charge of the lumber yard wanted to talk to him about. "Okay, I'll be right over," he agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Han Xiaodong felt a little nervous. He didn't know why the person in charge of the lumber yard wanted to see him, but he felt that this matter might be related to his previous suspicion of Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang.

After a quick dinner, Han Xiaodong rushed to the lumberyard. On the way, he kept thinking about what might happen, feeling uneasy.

When he arrived at the lumber yard, Han Xiaodong met the person in charge, a middle-aged man with a serious expression.

"Mr. Han Xiaodong, I came to you because I have something to tell you." The person in charge's voice was a little serious. "Recently we have discovered something wrong, involving the safety of wood."

Han Xiaodong was startled. He guessed that this matter might be related to his previous suspicion. "Excuse me, what is it?" He tried to remain calm.

The person in charge frowned. "We found that there are people frequently appearing in the lumber yard. They may be observing us. We suspect that this may be an organized crime activity."

Han Xiaodong was shocked. His guess was right. "I have my suspicions too. I've noticed that several neighbors have been frequently visiting the lumberyard lately. I think their behavior is suspicious," he said truthfully.

The person in charge nodded with a serious expression: "I understand. Mr. Han Xiaodong, I hope you can continue to pay attention to their actions. If you find anything, please report it to us in time."

Han Xiaodong nodded in agreement. He was filled with a sense of responsibility and determination, and he was determined to do his part for the safety and stability of the lumberyard.

After leaving the lumberyard, Han Xiaodong returned home with a heavy heart. He realized that he had been involved in a dangerous incident and he had to deal with it carefully to protect himself and the people around him.

After Han Xiaodong returned home, he felt a deep sense of anxiety and uneasiness. He knew in his heart that the matter at the lumberyard might be more complicated and dangerous than he had imagined. He realized that he had to act carefully and not take it lightly.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Han Xiaodong began to think about how to deal with the situation. He knew he couldn't act alone and had to seek help and support. So he decided to talk to his neighbor Yi Zhonghai.

Han Xiaodong walked into Yi Zhonghai's yard and found him planting flowers in the yard. He saw that Yi Zhonghai looked very relaxed and happy, as if he had no worries at all.

"Uncle Yi, hello." Han Xiaodong walked to Yi Zhonghai and greeted him softly.

Yi Zhonghai raised his head and smiled friendly: "Hey, Han Xiaodong, you're here. What's the matter?"

Han Xiaodong felt warm in his heart. He knew that Yi Zhonghai was a very amiable person and would definitely give him support and advice.

"Uncle Yi, I recently discovered something wrong about the lumber yard." Han Xiaodong expressed his concerns.

Yi Zhonghai frowned after hearing this: "Oh? What's the matter?"

"I found that several neighbors often appeared at the lumber yard, and I thought their behavior was very suspicious," Han Xiaodong said frankly.

Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment, then said: "This is indeed a bit strange. Have you ever considered communicating with them directly and asking them what they are doing?"

Han Xiaodong nodded: "Yes, I plan to talk to them and see if I can find out the truth of the matter."

Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "That's good. Communication is the first step to solving the problem. However, we must be careful. After all, this involves the safety of the timber yard and cannot be taken lightly."

Han Xiaodong fully agreed with Yi Zhonghai's suggestion. He decided to talk to those neighbors first to see if he could get to the bottom of the matter.

The next day, Han Xiaodong met his neighbors Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang, and he decided to talk to them directly.

"Uncle Yan, do you have time?" Han Xiaodong asked politely.

Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang turned around, saw Han Xiaodong, smiled and nodded.

"Of course I have time. Is there anything I can help you with?" Yan Jiecheng asked.

Han Xiaodong looked around and confirmed that there was no one else around before he said, "I want to talk to you about your frequent visits to the lumberyard recently."

After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang's expressions changed slightly. It was obvious that they did not expect Han Xiaodong to bring up such a topic.

"Are you saying that we often hang out at the lumber yard?" Yan Jiefang asked, trying to appear calm.

"Yes, I often see you two in the lumber yard." Han Xiaodong said frankly.

Yan Jiecheng was silent for a while, then said: "We just came out for a walk and took in the scenery."

Han Xiaodong was a little skeptical, but he didn't show it. He decided to continue observing their reactions to see if he could find some clues from their words and actions.

"I think your behavior is a little suspicious, so I want to talk to you and see if we can get to the bottom of the matter." Han Xiaodong said firmly and directly.

Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang exchanged glances, as if they were discussing something tacitly. Finally, Yan Jiecheng said, "Han Xiaodong, you misunderstood. We really just came out for a walk. We have no other intentions."

Han Xiaodong found it a little hard to believe, but he also understood that without direct evidence, he couldn't simply conclude that there was something wrong with their behavior.

"Okay, I will believe you." Han Xiaodong said this with some hesitation in his heart.

At the same time, although Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang's expressions were calm, there was a barely perceptible gloom in their eyes, as if they were hiding some secret.

Han Xiaodong was secretly alert in his heart. He knew that he had to be careful and not believe their words easily. This conversation did not bring him any answers, but made him more confused and worried.

Han Xiaodong returned home with doubts still lingering in his mind. Although he had talked to his neighbors, he was still worried about what was happening at the lumberyard. He knew he had to stay alert and not let his guard down.

Wanting to divert his attention, Han Xiaodong decided to go out and see what was new on the street. He heard that someone was selling hamburgers at the entrance of the alley, so he decided to try it.

When he reached the entrance of the alley, Han Xiaodong saw a small stall. The owner was a young man who was busy making hamburgers.

"Wow, this burger looks so tempting!" Han Xiaodong praised in his heart and walked to the stall.

When the stall owner saw someone coming, he immediately showed a warm smile: "Hello, sir, welcome! Would you like to try our burgers?"

"Of course I do!" Han Xiaodong replied with a smile, "Give me a burger."

The stall owner immediately started to work, skillfully cutting the bread, putting beef patties, lettuce, tomatoes and sauce on it, and then wrapping it up. The whole process was so easy and natural that Han Xiaodong couldn't help but admire the stall owner's craftsmanship.

"Here, sir, your burger." The stall owner handed the freshly made burger to Han Xiaodong.

Han Xiaodong took the burger and couldn't wait any longer. He took a bite and felt the rich aroma of meat and the deliciousness of the sauce, and immediately felt that the taste buds on the tip of his tongue were satisfied.

"It's delicious!" Han Xiaodong praised repeatedly, "The burgers you made are amazing!"

The stall owner was all smiles when he heard the compliment: "Thank you for the compliment, sir. I tried my best."

Han Xiaodong looked around while tasting his burger. Although the business at the entrance of the alley was not very busy, it was still quite lively. People hurried by, enjoying the happiness brought by the food.

After eating the burger, Han Xiaodong returned home in a good mood. He felt much better today, at least he temporarily put aside his worries about the lumberyard.
