Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Chapter 542 Liu Haizhong's Hidden Goods

Liu Haizhong lay on the hospital bed, his whole body numb. He never thought that because he provoked Lin Geng this time, Li Huaide would be so ruthless and directly fire him.

He wanted to go to Li Huaide and plead with him, asking Li Huaide not to fire him, but he was in such a state now, how could he get out of bed and go to Li Huaide?

So he asked his wife to go to the steel mill to beg Li Huaide for mercy, asking Li Huaide to let him go and not fire him. However, after his wife went to the steel mill, she couldn't even get into the factory gate, let alone see Li Huaide. This made Liu Haizhong really cry. He never thought that at this age, he would even lose his job and become an unemployed vagrant.

This time, the trouble he caused to Lin Geng was really not worth it. Not only did he fail to do anything to Lin Geng, he didn't make a penny. Instead, he was fired by Lin Geng. Now he even lost his job. Liu Haizhong regretted it so much, but at this point, he could do nothing about it.

Although he was unwilling to be thrown away by Li Huaide like a used rag, he did not dare to go against Li Huaide because he knew that Li Huaide had a very powerful background. If he sued Li Huaide for this reason, Li Huaide would have a hundred ways to make him disappear from this world. Killing him would be as easy as killing an ant, so he could only accept it with a pinch of his nose.

He still hasn't figured it out. He clearly asked Lao Wu to help him get rid of Lin Geng, and he even sent two of his men to follow Lao Wu out of the city with Lin Geng. It stands to reason that with Lao Wu bringing so many men with him, it should be easy for him to get rid of Lin Geng after following Lin Geng out of the city.

But for some reason, Lin Geng came back safe and sound as if nothing had happened, while the two men he sent to follow Lao Wu had not returned since the accident. This left Liu Jiazhong puzzled.

But just when Liu Jiazhong was feeling depressed, those guys who had followed him and were also fired were not happy about it. They said that it was Liu Haizhong who caused them to lose their jobs. They asked their families to block Liu Haizhong's ward and demanded that Liu Haizhong compensate them for their losses, at least one thousand yuan per person.

During this period of time, Liu Haizhong led people to raid this house or that house every day, and he really enriched himself and seized a lot of property. However, these things were either gold, silver, or various jewelry, which could not be seen in public. Even if he wanted to pay compensation, he had to convert these things into cash first.

But now he is lying in the hospital with three of his limbs broken. He can only lie down and it is difficult for him to defecate or urinate, let alone go out to cash in the things he embezzled. So he has difficulty paying his own medical expenses, let alone paying compensation to the subordinates he once gathered together.

So Liu Haizhong can't do anything now except pretending to be dead on the hospital bed. His former brothers blocked his ward every day and cursed him, almost forcing Liu Haizhong to death.

After staying in the hospital for a few days, Lin Geng was discharged and went home to recuperate. In order to show that he was seriously injured, Lin Geng pretended to have a bandage on his head and asked Sha Zhu and Xu Damao to take him back home on a tricycle. Everyone in the hospital saw that Lin Geng was taken back while lying down.

Lin Geng had his reasons for pretending to be like this and making people think that he was seriously injured, because this time he was going to make Liu Haizhong completely unable to recover.

After he was sent back to the courtyard, Sha Zhu prepared delicious food for Lin Geng every day to nourish his body. Xu Damao also cooked chicken soup for Lin Geng every few days. Everyone in the courtyard saw that day when Liu Haizhong hit Lin Geng on the head with such a thick laundry stick. Any normal person would be disabled if hit like that, so naturally no one would suspect that Lin Geng was pretending.

On the third night after Lin Geng was discharged from the hospital, when it was late at night and Yu Li had fallen asleep with her child in her arms, Lin Geng quietly got up, slipped into the space, found a set of black clothes, covered his face with cloth, and made himself look like he was going to Pigeon City.

Then he appeared directly outside the courtyard through the small world, ensuring that no one could see him, and then he quickly rushed towards an alley several kilometers away.

On the road, he always walked in dark places to avoid all pedestrians on the street. Even in the second half of the night, there would occasionally be some pedestrians on the street. Except for the night patrol personnel organized by the police station, most people secretly went to the pigeon market to buy things at night.

Lin Geng walked very fast and carefully along the way. It didn't take long before he came to an alley. After listening carefully, he slipped into the alley, walked to the end, listened carefully again, and made sure that there was no movement in the yard, so he slipped into the yard.

Liu Haizhong's home is in this courtyard. After he was forced to exchange houses and move out of Courtyard No. 95, he moved to this courtyard and settled down. He has lived here for a year.

Lin Geng had found out where Liu Haizhong lived here a long time ago. He originally thought that if Liu Haizhong moved here and lived his life honestly, he would not intend to kill this old man.

But he didn't expect that this old guy was so restless. After the storm started, he still clung to Li Huaide's thigh and climbed to the leader of the picket team of the Revolutionary Committee. He started to stir up trouble like in the original drama, and even wanted to put him to death. He couldn't tolerate it.

After sneaking into the courtyard, Lin Geng easily entered Liu Haizhong's home without leaving a trace.

Liu Haizhong's house still has two rooms, but they are smaller than the two rooms he had in Yard 95. Otherwise, people would not exchange rooms with him.

After Lin Geng entered Liu Haizhong's house, he immediately covered Liu Haizhong's entire house with the small world. Then every corner of Liu Haizhong's house, even the walls and the places several meters below the ground, appeared in the small world, allowing Lin Geng to see all the places in Liu Haizhong's house where things could be hidden.

This was also a new use of the small world that Lin Geng accidentally discovered when he was being lazy. That was to use the small world to cover a certain area, and then all the structures of this area could be manifested in the small world, allowing him to easily see every corner of this area.

But Lin Geng never expected that one day he would use this kind of place to find the place where Liu Haizhong hid money or valuables.

However, this function is really very useful. He found the place where Liu Haizhong hid his belongings with almost no effort. It was under the cupboard in Liu Haizhong's house. The couple picked up a few bricks under the cupboard and dug a hole to hide things.

Liu Haizhong and his wife really took great pains in hiding things. After hiding the things in the small hole, they covered it with a small stone slab, restored the floor tiles to their original state, and then moved the cabinet back to its original position, pressing it on top of the small hole. It was really hard to find.

If Lin Geng had not accidentally developed this new use for the small world, he might not have been able to find where Liu Haizhong hid things. Unfortunately, Liu Haizhong could never have imagined that the place where he hid things so secretly would be easily found by someone one day.
