Siheyuan, Rainwater is the master, Shazhu wins

He stepped into the black market again, but this time he chose to enter in stealth so as not to be noticed by the gatekeeper of the black market.

The purpose of his visit this time was no longer to find simple food and drink, but those high-value antique artifacts.

Not long after, he noticed a man setting up a street stall.

After he came out of stealth, he walked over to the stall, picked up the flashlight and started looking around.

He illuminated the stall with a flashlight and was surprised to find that it was filled with snuff bottles.

He didn't know much about snuff bottles, but considering that the number of fakes should be relatively small at this time, these snuff bottles are most likely authentic.

So he asked.

"How much are these snuff bottles?"

The stall owner looked at him and replied.

"Five dollars each. If you take all of them, I'll give you fifty dollars."

He counted them carefully and found that there were twelve snuff bottles in total. If the price was fifty yuan, it would be reasonable.

Then he continued to ask.

“Besides this, are there any other antiques?”

The stall owner thought for a moment and then answered.

"Oh, there are some more, but they are not here. If you are interested, you can come to this place again tomorrow and we can continue the transaction."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu nodded in agreement and added.

"Well, okay. Actually, I personally prefer calligraphy and paintings, porcelain and jade. Of course, if there are ancient books, that would be even better. If you have any, just bring them over tomorrow. I will buy them as long as I like them."

After hearing this, the stall owner showed a look of joy on his face and responded quickly.

"Okay, I understand. Please rest assured that the items I have are absolutely genuine and authentic. You will never be disappointed."

After receiving the stall owner's affirmative response, He Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction. He gave the other party fifty yuan and asked him to pack up all the things.

The stall owner took the money and quickly packed the snuff bottles. Then he turned around and left with the things, continuing to wander around the surrounding stalls.

In the following days, he visited many stalls but still failed to find the items he liked.

There were a wide variety of popular items at the time, such as bicycle tickets, watch tickets, radio tickets, and sewing tickets. After all, it would be considered an honor for a family to own these things.

However, for He Yuzhu, these items were not what he needed.

However good they were, they were of no use to him.

He tiptoed to an empty corner, stored the things in the space, and then left the black market in stealth, as if he was afraid of being noticed.

He remained invisible all the way, not wanting anything to happen, and ran towards the courtyard.

When he finally returned to the courtyard, it was already late at night.

He skillfully climbed over the high wall of the courtyard and then walked carefully to his home in the middle courtyard.

When he returned home, he felt an unprecedented fatigue washing over him.

He didn't care about anything else. He just lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and began to rest.

As for the fact that so many people were killed or so many items were taken away before, people who have killed people know that they don’t have time to take care of them at this moment.

At this moment, he just hopes to get a moment of peace and relaxation.

However, he didn't know that something unexpected happened shortly after he left the black market.

It turned out that those people in the black market had successfully deceived another person.

They plan to team up with the boss again and try to trick the new guy as well.

When the man came to the courtyard and knocked on the door as agreed, the hand that was about to knock lightly touched the door and it opened unexpectedly.

At that time, he didn't care about it, thinking that the boss had asked someone to keep the door open.

However, when he walked into the yard, the scene before him shocked him.

There were dead bodies all over the ground, blood was flowing everywhere, and there were a large number of bullet shells scattered everywhere. The whole scene was extremely bloody and terrifying.

"ah!!!

"The three people were terrified, screaming and tumbling as they fled.

Their shouts traveled far in the quiet night and quickly attracted the attention of people who had just left the black market.

This was the time when the black market was busiest, and there were still many people on the road.

Seeing this, someone hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

After running for a while, these people finally came to these passers-by.

"Someone's been murdered! Someone's dead! So many people are dead!"

The man who wanted to buy rice and flour was shouting hysterically, his voice sharp and piercing.

Only then did people hear clearly what he said.

The crowd suddenly exploded, and fled in all directions like a swarm of disturbed bees.

However, although everyone tried to keep a low profile as much as possible, such a big commotion still attracted the attention of the police at the police station.

They have been keeping a close eye on every move in the black market, which is of course also the instruction from their superiors.

As long as nothing major happens here, they can just turn a blind eye.

After all, doing so would provide everyone with an opportunity to purchase daily necessities, since each person is allocated a limited share.

So they just turned a blind eye and just did their patrol duties nearby.

When they heard that someone had been killed, the police rushed over immediately.

The three men were still shouting at the top of their lungs, obviously greatly stimulated.

In desperation, the police had to step forward and forcibly calm them down, and shouted orders.

"Who are you?"

“Where did the person die?”

Faced with the police's rapid-fire questioning, the man who bought the food seemed a little frightened and answered stutteringly.

“The address… they knew it. It was where they stored the supplies. I went there to buy something, and when I walked into the yard, I saw many people dead.”

"The ground is full of bullets. There are at least a dozen dead! Go and have a look!"

He fell silent after he finished speaking, and the police turned to question the two people next to him.

In desperation, they had to lead the police to the crime scene first.

When everyone arrived at the courtyard, the police noticed that it was quite remote.

After entering the courtyard, what came into view were corpses lying all over the ground and bullet casings scattered everywhere. It was obviously difficult for them, with just a few people, to handle such a difficult case.

"Xiao Li, hurry up and return to the bureau to request support and report this to the director! Remember to be quick! This case is too big for us to handle alone. All we can do now is to do our best to protect the crime scene."

"Got it, Captain Wang, I'll be there right away!"

"Xiao Zhang, you, Xiao Zhao and I will stay here to guard the scene. We must not let anyone destroy the crime scene. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Captain Wang, don't worry!"

At this moment, well-informed black market people have already learned what is happening here.

They began to flee in panic, because they knew very well that if they didn't leave quickly, they would never have another chance to escape.

The manager of the black market also realized the seriousness of the problem. He immediately issued an order, requiring all his men to evacuate the area immediately.

After all, this place has become extremely unsafe, and staying here any longer will only increase the risks.
