1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Time passed quietly, and when Li Weiguo appeared again, there was a relaxed smile on his face.

He walked briskly to the bicycle, jumped on it, and sped towards the school.

At this time, Wu Dong and his friends were rushing back after gathering information outside.

Their steps were a little tired, but there was still a hint of expectation in their eyes, hoping to find a suitable way out for last night's "harvest".

However, when they saw the scene in front of the Wu family's door from afar, everyone's face changed drastically.

At the door of the house, two public security comrades in white uniforms stood there upright, with serious and solemn expressions.

Beside her, Wu Meili was crying. She pointed at the yard and cried to the police: "It must be that ungrateful Wu Dong who stole the things from my house. You police must help me!"

The public security comrade just looked at each other, whispered a few words of comfort to Wu Meili, and said no more.

They know very well that they must not make judgments rashly before the truth of the matter is found out, and every detail may be related to the judgment of fairness and justice.

When the gangsters saw this scene, they immediately panicked.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear and confusion.

They couldn't understand why the police came so quickly.

"What should we do now, Dong?"

Everyone turned their eyes to Wu Dong, their voices trembling and uneasy, as if Wu Dong was their only lifeline at the moment, waiting for him to come up with a solution.

After all, the people standing in front of the gate of the yard were the public security comrades who represented the majesty of the law. If the things they moved back last night were discovered, they would undoubtedly face severe punishment from the law, and jail time seemed to be beckoning to them.

At this moment, Wu Dong's face was extremely ugly. His hands were clenched into fists, and his knuckles turned white due to the force.

He kept cursing in his heart: Wu Meili, you want to kill me all and don't want to give me any chance to survive!

But now that things have come to this, he also understands that everyone has their own consequences.

Wu Dong was originally a loner, free from all worries and fears, but the brothers around him were different, they all had their own families and lives.

Wu Dong leaned slightly to the side, approached the beggar next to him, and said in a low voice: "Don't get involved in this matter. I am responsible for my own actions. Brothers, please leave quickly!"

Although his voice was low, it revealed an unquestionable firmness.

"This..." Everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of hesitation and reluctance.

They didn't expect that Wu Dong would be so loyal and willing to bear all the consequences alone at this critical moment.

However, the cruel reality prevents them from rushing forward regardless of the consequences.

Laizi's eyes were filled with hot tears. He gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Dong, we are grateful for your kindness. When the police ask you later, tell them the truth of the matter. Tell them that those things were left to you by the old man and the old lady. I don't believe that Wu Meili can still cover up the truth with one hand."

Wu Dong took a deep breath, raised his hand and patted Lai Zi's shoulder heavily, as if that pat was conveying all his trust and gratitude to him.

"Laizi, thank you for trusting me, Wu Dong, and helping me vent my anger. No matter what happens today, I will not betray my brothers."

After saying that, Wu Dong slowly raised his feet under the gaze of everyone and walked towards the door step by step with determination.

Every step he took seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and his heartbeat echoed in his ears like thunder, but his eyes were always looking straight ahead, with no intention of retreating.

As soon as Wu Dong appeared, Wu Meili rushed towards him like an enraged female beast.

Her finger almost poked Wu Dong's face, and she asked loudly: "Wu Dong, you little brat, tell me if you knocked our family unconscious last night and took away all the things in the house?"

There was a flash of anger in Wu Dong's eyes. He swung his arm violently, slammed Wu Meili's hand away, glared at her fiercely, and spoke in a voice that seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

"What are you doing at my doorstep again? Do you want to rob my house again?" His words were like a sharp blade, cutting through the air, shocking everyone present.

The farce that happened a few days ago when Wu Meili went back to her parents' home to beg for money seemed to still be there. The bursts of crying coming from the Wu family seemed to still linger in everyone's ears and had not faded away for a long time.

At this moment, when Wu Dong mentioned this, the neighbors around couldn't help but whisper to each other and discuss in low voices.

The tiny voices, like the buzzing of mosquitoes and flies, spread in the air.

The two public security comrades frowned slightly when they heard Wu Dong's words. They keenly realized that this matter might not be as simple as it seemed.

Wu Meili was obviously shocked by Wu Dong's words. A trace of panic flashed in her eyes, but was instantly covered up by greed and determination.

Thinking of the purpose of her trip, she immediately returned to her vicious look, like an enraged she-wolf, baring her teeth and claws and saying, "Little cub, ungrateful wolf, those are things my parents left me, it's my due for me to take them, but you, staying up in the middle of the night and sneaking into my house to steal them, you're committing a crime."

Wu Dong stood there straight, facing Wu Meili in front of him, without any fear in his eyes.

He raised his chin slightly and continued calmly, "My grandparents died and you didn't give them a penny. How dare you call them your parents? And what about stealing in the middle of the night? You are slandering people. Public Security Comrade, I want to report a case. Wu Meili slandered me."

The aunt and niece were in a stalemate in front of the two police officers, and neither of them was willing to give in.

Seeing this, the public security comrades hurried forward to stop the two men: "Wu Dong, we are here to investigate the case. Once we investigate, we will know the right and wrong. Now please open the door, we want to go in and search for the stolen goods."

Wu Meili nodded repeatedly and agreed, "Yes, this kid must have left the things at home. Public security comrades, you must make the decision for me."

Wu Dong glared at Wu Meili fiercely, and that look seemed to be able to shoot a sharp arrow and pierce Wu Meili's heart.

But in the end, under the burning gazes of everyone, he slowly walked towards the gate, took out the key from his waist, and opened the tightly closed gate.

As the courtyard door creaked open, Wu Meili rushed into the house desperately as if she had gone mad.

Wu Dong watched them rush into the house and couldn't help but feel nervous. He could clearly feel a layer of fine beads of sweat oozing out of the palms of his hands.

Just because those things were placed in the room where he lived, his mind was in a mess at the moment, and he was still thinking about how to deal with this difficult situation in a while.

At this moment, Wu Meili suddenly howled in the room: "Impossible, why is there no sound, it is impossible that there is no sound!"

When Wu Dong in the yard heard the shout, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He was also full of doubts. The things were clearly placed in the house, so how could they disappear?
