Yi Zhonghai looked around and made sure no one heard him before he spoke: "Han Xiaodong, I heard that Liu Guangfu from the next door yard has been reselling contraband recently. You must not get involved with him."

Han Xiaodong was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "Liu Guangfu? He usually looks quite honest, why would he do such a thing?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "Alas, the human heart is hard to predict. Just remember to stay away from trouble and don't let yourself get involved."

Han Xiaodong nodded and made a note of it. After returning to his room, he sat on the bed, his mind in a mess. These days, he always felt that although his life was peaceful, there seemed to be some undercurrents surging. He thought, maybe it's time to pay more attention to the people and things around him.

The next morning, Han Xiaodong decided to go out for a walk to relax. The streets were already getting bustling, with vendors shouting and selling all kinds of snacks, and children playing on the street. Han Xiaodong walked to a small stall and saw a few colorful water guns. He was tempted and bought a few. He thought, the weather is so hot, buying some water guns to play with everyone can both relieve the heat and increase the fun.

Back at the courtyard, Han Xiaodong excitedly took out his water gun and shouted to the children in the yard, "Children, come and see! I bought a water gun. Shall we play together?"

When the children heard this, they immediately gathered around, their eyes sparkling with excitement. "Brother Han Xiaodong, let us play for a while!" a little boy said impatiently.

Han Xiaodong smiled and handed the water guns to them. He also took one and took the lead in shooting a stream of water into the air. The children followed his example and sprayed each other. The whole yard was suddenly filled with laughter.

"Han Xiaodong, this is a great idea." Liu Haizhong came over with a smile on his face, "I want to try it too."

Han Xiaodong laughed and handed him a water gun: "Come on, let's play together!"

Liu Haizhong took the water gun and joined the children. Everyone chased each other and laughed. Han Xiaodong thought that this kind of life was great, simple and happy.

At this time, Yan Bugui was also attracted by the noise. He stood at the door, frowning slightly: "What are you doing? It's so noisy."

Han Xiaodong walked over with a smile and told the story again: "Brother Yan, the weather is so hot, let's play in the water together to cool down."

Yan Bugui's expression softened a little after hearing this: "You guys can play, but don't make it too messy."

"Don't worry, we will pay attention." Han Xiaodong nodded.

Suddenly, a splash of water came and splashed on Yan Bugui's trouser legs. He frowned and was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was a group of children who did it unintentionally, he could only sigh helplessly: "Forget it, you guys play, just don't go too far."

Han Xiaodong smiled and pulled Yan Bugui: "Brother Yan, come and play too, let's have fun together."

Yan Bugui shook his head: "Forget it. I'm too old to play anymore."

As he was talking, Qin Huairu came over with a plate of sliced ​​watermelon: "Everyone has worked hard, come and eat some watermelon to cool down."

As soon as the children saw the watermelon, they immediately put down their water guns and gathered around. Han Xiaodong picked up a piece of watermelon and took a bite. The sweet juice filled his mouth and made him feel cool. Looking at these innocent children, he felt fulfilled and satisfied.

"Han Xiaodong, is this watermelon sweet?" Qin Huairu asked with a smile.

"Sweet, really sweet." Han Xiaodong nodded, "Thank you, Sister Qin."

"Don't be polite. It's more fun when we eat together." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, Jia Dongxu came over with a serious expression: "Han Xiaodong, I have something to tell you."

Han Xiaodong was stunned and felt a little uneasy. He followed Jia Dongxu to the side and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, Brother Dongxu?"

Jia Dongxu looked around and said in a low voice: "I heard that someone reported Liu Guangfu, and his recent behavior has been targeted."

Han Xiaodong's heart tightened: "Is this true? This is no small matter."

Jia Dongxu nodded: "It's true, you have to be careful and don't get involved."

Han Xiaodong took a deep breath and nodded to show that he understood. He returned to the yard, feeling a little heavy-hearted, but still tried to keep smiling, not wanting others to notice that he was different.

"Han Xiaodong, what's wrong? You look a little abnormal." Liu Haizhong noticed Han Xiaodong's mood change and asked with concern.

Han Xiaodong smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, maybe I'm a little tired."

Liu Haizhong patted his shoulder and said, "If you have any problem, just tell us. We are all friends."

Han Xiaodong felt warm in his heart and nodded: "Thank you, I understand."

In the afternoon, Han Xiaodong decided to go out and relax. When he walked to the street, he saw a small stall selling popsicles not far away. He walked over and bought one. When he was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone calling his name.

"Han Xiaodong, wait!"

Han Xiaodong looked back and saw Yi Zhonghai. He came over with an anxious look on his face: "Han Xiaodong, do you know? Something happened to Liu Guangfu."

Han Xiaodong was shocked: "What's going on?"

Yi Zhonghai whispered, "Someone came to see him just now and said they wanted to take him for investigation."

Han Xiaodong frowned, feeling uneasy. He knew that this matter might not be that simple. Back at the courtyard, Han Xiaodong saw people in the courtyard whispering about something. It was obvious that everyone already knew about Liu Guangfu's case.

"Han Xiaodong, have you heard? Liu Guangfu has been taken away." Yan Bugui walked over with a complicated expression.

Han Xiaodong nodded: "I heard about it. This is really worrying."

"I hope he is safe." Qin Huairu sighed.

"Yeah, no one wants to see this kind of thing." Han Xiaodong sighed.

He has a lot of thoughts. He knows that there will always be unexpected things happening in life, but no matter what, he must face it with strength. He believes that as long as everyone unites as one, they can overcome the difficulties.

The next morning, Han Xiaodong decided to go see Liu Guangfu's family to see if they needed help. He walked to Liu Guangfu's door and knocked gently. Liu Guangfu's wife opened the door and saw that it was Han Xiaodong, and a grateful smile appeared on her face.

"Han Xiaodong, you're here. Thank you for your concern. We are fine," she said.

Han Xiaodong nodded: "If you need any help, just let me know."

She shook her head. "Not for now. We'll get through this."

Han Xiaodong knew that at this time, words of comfort were far less effective than actual actions. He decided to keep an eye on their situation and lend a helping hand when needed.

Back in the yard, Han Xiaodong saw the children playing again, and his mood improved a little. He walked over and joined them, and everyone started a new round of water gun battle. Although there are many unsatisfactory things in life, Han Xiaodong believes that as long as there is love and hope in the heart, there will be a bright tomorrow.

As time went by, Liu Guangfu's case gradually came to light. Han Xiaodong heard from Yi Zhonghai that Liu Guangfu was only suspected and there was no solid evidence. Han Xiaodong breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this was finally good news.

"Han Xiaodong, thank you for your hard work during this period." Qin Huairu said to Han Xiaodong, "You have been helping everyone. You are really great."

Han Xiaodong smiled and said, "We are all neighbors, and we should help each other."

"You're right to think so. We are all one family and we can face any difficulties together." Yi Zhonghai said approvingly.

Han Xiaodong returned to his room and was about to rest when he heard a knock on the door. He walked over and opened the door, only to see an exquisite gift box at the door. Han Xiaodong was stunned and looked around, but he didn't see anyone.

"Who would give me something?" Han Xiaodong wondered. He picked up the gift box, went back into the house, and opened it carefully.

The gift box was filled with all kinds of small toys: colorful marbles, shiny spinning tops, and some small wooden puzzles. Han Xiaodong looked at these toys and felt warm and surprised. He couldn't guess who sent them, but he knew these toys would definitely bring happiness to the children.

An idea flashed through Han Xiaodong's mind: "Children's Day is coming soon, why not give these toys to the children in the yard as holiday gifts."

The next morning, Han Xiaodong walked into the yard with the gift box. The sun was shining on the ground, and the children were already playing in the yard, laughing and talking. Han Xiaodong put the gift box on the table and clapped his hands to attract the children's attention.

"Children, come and see what I brought!" Han Xiaodong said with a smile.

The children gathered around and their eyes lit up when they saw the toys in the gift box. "Brother Han Xiaodong, are these toys for us?" a little girl asked excitedly.

Han Xiaodong nodded: "Yes, Children's Day is coming soon. This is my gift to you. I hope you like it."

The children cheered, everyone picked out their favorite toys, and the whole yard was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"Han Xiaodong, these toys are really nice." Qin Huairu came over and said approvingly, "You are really thoughtful."

Han Xiaodong smiled and said, "They are all children. If they are happy, I am happy too."

At this time, Yan Bugui also came over with a rare smile on his face: "Han Xiaodong, you really know how to make children happy."

"Yes, children are the most innocent, and their smiles can make us forget all our worries." Han Xiaodong said with emotion.

Jia Dongxu also came over and said, "Han Xiaodong, you really brought great joy to our courtyard this time."

Han Xiaodong smiled and patted Jia Dongxu on the shoulder: "As long as everyone is happy."

The children had a great time, and the adults were also infected by the joy. Looking at these innocent smiling faces, Han Xiaodong felt that all the efforts were worth it.
