Siheyuan: Starting with level 8 benchwork skills

"Sister Xiao'e, you have just arrived here and are not familiar with the complex situation in the compound.

I warned you not to trust her for good reason.

You experienced today's events yourself, and your feelings are more profound than what others can describe."

Li Han explained.

Xiao'e secretly regretted: "Han, I knew I should have believed you earlier.

Today, I was almost taken advantage of by that madman."

If my reputation is ruined, how can I face my loved one in the future?

"Forget it, let the past go with the wind.

As long as you don't show up in the compound, this dispute will no longer have any impact."

"I don't want to go there anymore. Can you come visit me more often?"

Xiao'e's eyes were full of anticipation.

If she didn't go back to the headquarters, it must be Li Han who came to her on his own initiative. "Sister, Sister Xiao'e, do you miss my hot milk?"

Li Han said with a smile, his words full of sarcasm.

When Lou Xiao'e heard this, she seemed to burst out with shyness. "Oh, when did you learn to talk so well?"

She replied in a reproachful tone.

"How can I be joking? I'm just praising your unique charm. My sister's specialty is making people's hearts flutter."

Li Han said seriously, but there was a smile in his eyes.

When it comes to "specialties"

When she said these two words, Lou Xiao'e's face turned slightly red again.

After the meal, the two did not eat anything else and instead engaged in exercise.

By the time Li Han left Lou Xiao'e's private residence, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

There are only a few days left until the New Year.

At this moment, he thought it was time to visit Chen Xueru.

The silk shop had already closed, so Li Han walked straight to the door and knocked.

As he guessed, the person who opened the door to greet him was Chen Xueru. "Are you here just to chat with me?"

His eyes were full of joy.

"Why are you so beautiful? I didn't come here specially to wait for you. I just need to work overtime."

A sly smile appeared on Chen Xueru's lips.

"Is that so? Your company's general manager never works late shifts. Are you the only exception?"

He ruthlessly exposed Chen Xueru's little lies.

Chen Xueru shrugged. "Okay, what's wrong with me waiting for you? I have some delicious food prepared here, do you want to enjoy it together?"

After saying this, the doubts between Li Han's brows disappeared.

I didn't have any meat tonight, so I was naturally happy to accept the good thing.

After having a midnight snack together, they did some exercise together to help digest the food.

An hour later, Chen Xueru lay comfortably on Li Han's chest, full of satisfaction. "You performed beyond my expectations this time. You are really talented in sports."

"Is that company manager still finding fault? Last time I heard he was quite critical of your work."

Recalling what he heard last time, he asked about Chen Xueru's recent situation with concern.

Chen Xueru heard this with a slightly sad look on her face: "You just happened to come here by chance. I think you should also know that the manager has proposed a request to improve the 'Zhongshan suit' and a design plan must be put forward before the New Year.

I have a talent for fashion design, so I should be able to handle this, but it’s hard for me to handle it alone.”

It is our duty to help Chen Xueru in the face of her predicament.

Li Han thought to himself that if he continued to be passive, Manager Gong Fang's offensive would become more intense until he achieved his goal.

"Why don't you take this opportunity to fight back? That 'Zhongshan suit' couldn't be altered any worse. This is a good opportunity to teach the other party a lesson."

he suggested.

Chen Xueru looked puzzled: "What are you going to do?"

“I’ll tell you slowly.

Now just listen to me and I will make the arrangements in detail."

Li Han lowered his head and whispered, his voice gentle and strategic, and Chen Xueru gently nodded from time to time.

His plan was simple: to encourage Chen Xueru to challenge the manager of the company with a design proposal and to decide the outcome.

When the other party makes trouble for no reason, fight back in the same way.

He was confident in his design concept and was sure that he would succeed.

After giving Chen Xueru a design drawing, he left the silk shop.

I just got back to Dongzhimen Street, but someone unexpectedly blocked my way. "What do you want from me?"

There was a chill in Li Han's voice, piercing like a sword.

Standing in front of him were two young men in ordinary clothes.

One of them spoke, and his voice made Li Han feel a little familiar.

He looked at the man in the dim light and found that it was Officer Cheng from the Dongzhimen Police Station. "Officer Cheng, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Officer Cheng smiled cheerfully:

"Do we look like bad people?"

Li Han also smiled: "The Spring Festival is approaching, and we may encounter some thieves who are looking for money late at night."

"You have a point. The public security situation has been bad recently, so we are all patrolling in plain clothes to prevent any accidents."

After Officer Cheng explained it this way, Li Han understood their mission.

The two policemen were on duty, but he didn't understand why they stopped him.

"If there's nothing else, Officer Cheng, I'll be leaving first."

When Officer Cheng saw Li Han was about to leave, he nodded apologetically and said:

"Comrade Li Han, we understand that you have been praised and that you have played a role in several recent events in your compound.

We therefore believe that you are a person who hates evil. If there are any suspicious people, we hope you can tell us."

"Officer, you want us to become informants, right?"

"What is an 'information provider'?" Officer Cheng had obviously never heard of this term.

Li Han then remembered that this was the name from a movie he had seen in the past when he traveled through time and space. This concept does not exist in this era.

"That's what it means to provide clues, isn't it?" he explained to him.

Officer Cheng became interested after hearing this.

"Then are you willing to help us as an informant?"

Li Han smiled and replied: "As a citizen, it is my duty to pass on clues when encountering suspicious things.

But there may not be much time to go deep into being a formal information officer."

"It's okay, just tell us if you have any clues."

Li Han agreed to the request.

Cooperating with the police station would bring more benefits than disadvantages to him, especially when obtaining confirmation from the deaf old lady, directly locking down the evidence through the police station would make a great contribution.

The next day, in the warehouse of Red Star Steel Plant.

Sha Zhu has made an appointment to meet Master Ma.

In a corner of the warehouse, Yi Zhonghai was hiding in the dark.

"Old Ma, the original plan has failed. It seems we have no choice but to implement your alternative plan." Sha Zhu said to Master Ma.

"Have you been doing it quietly?" Master Ma was a little surprised.

"Will it attract other people's attention?"

"Don't worry," Sha Zhu tried his best to calm his doubts.

"Li Han is still unaware of our contact and has already found a scrap factory as the meeting point.

Let's take action tonight." Sha Zhu said in a low voice, his arm wrapped in bandages. This was the mark left by Li Han breaking his arm yesterday.

He still insisted on going to work in the cafeteria just to have a detailed discussion with Master Ma tonight and implement Li Han's plan.

“Where exactly is the abandoned factory?”

Master Ma thought that the matter should not be delayed and it would be better to get rid of Li Han today.

Sha Zhu told him the address.

After Master Ma left, Yi Zhonghai appeared from the corner.

"Zhu Zi, I think Master Ma can be trusted. Looking at the hatred in his eyes that shows Li Han, he won't hide anything easily." Yi Zhonghai has been a senior fitter for many years and has an extremely sharp eye in guiding apprentices.

"Anyway, he and I are birds of a feather. If I were to be exposed, I would definitely sell him out. So he can't betray me." Sha Zhu concluded that this would be a good opportunity to use Master Ma to get rid of Li Han.

Yi Zhonghai nodded in agreement.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight." No matter what the outcome of the plan was, he knew in his heart that tonight would be difficult.

Li Han, who was working normally in the factory at this moment, suddenly received a system notification.

Upon learning that Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu had separated, his emotion value increased by 1000 points.

"The two of them are showing such violent emotional fluctuations, it's obvious that they are plotting against me again.

I broke Shazhu's arm yesterday, so he must be resentful and might do something ruthless this time."

Based on his understanding of Sha Zhu, Li Han knew that one of Sha Zhu's ruthless tactics was to attack by surprise.

As long as we are prepared for attacks from behind, things shouldn't be a problem.

Lunch time after lunch break.

Master Ma suddenly called Li Han to a deserted place.

"Li Han, I have solid evidence that Sha Zhu stole public property. I will give it all to you tonight."

Master Ma spoke very cautiously, as if he was afraid someone might hear him.

His attitude made people believe the truth of his words, but Li Han had long been suspicious of Master Ma and would not trust him easily.

"Master Ma, tell me when and where."

He wanted to know what Master Ma’s trump card was.

After whispering in Li Han's ear, Master Ma told him a specific location and time.

"Okay, see you tonight, Master Ma."

Li Han appeared to be convinced.

After the two separated,

Master Ma's eyes began to turn cold.

“Well, if you hadn’t threatened me, I wouldn’t have done anything to you tonight.

You have brought all this upon yourself, so don't blame me for being ruthless." Master Ma is certainly not a good person, but he is not cold-blooded. He couldn't help but tremble at the thought of taking someone's life.

"Ding Dong, get Master Ma's mood value +1000."

The sudden prompt sound made him question whether there was something wrong with what Master Ma said before.

“Although I am trying my best to cooperate with your plot, Master Ma.

Maybe you haven't realized it yet, but I already suspect you." Li Han raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with a hint of evil smile.

Realizing that there might be an ambush in the abandoned warehouse tonight, he became alert.

But he knew he had to face the challenge.

Last night, Officer Cheng had hoped to use him as an undercover informant. "Isn't Officer Cheng exactly what he needs information about the criminal? Then let me give him a hint tonight."

Li Han smiled slightly, thinking that there would be unknown changes in the abandoned warehouse tonight.

Undoubtedly, the excitement and surprise of the whole thing depend entirely on how Master Ma performs it.

As the workday was getting close, Li Han noticed that Yi Zhonghai seemed unusually nervous in arranging for his colleagues to get off work.

"Strange, what's wrong with Yi Zhonghai today? It seems like he is in a hurry to leave the world." He guessed secretly.

When the bell rang for the end of get off work, Yi Zhonghai left the factory on time.

Afterwards, Li Han followed quietly behind.

When I saw Yi Zhonghai meeting Sha Zhu from afar.
