Chapter 206: Illusion Technique

He Yuzhu saw this and immediately went up to meet them, a fawning smile piling up on his face, as he smoothly pulled a pack of Camel Cigarettes from his pocket: "Hard work, officers! What brings you to our courtyard?"

The lead Police Officer with the pockmarked face looked him over: "Did a group of people looking like refugees just enter your courtyard? Someone reported that these people are bandits."

"Do you have proof?" He Yuzhu's hand, which was offering the cigarettes, paused.

"If we search, won't we have it?" The pockmarked man gave a cold snort.

"That's unreasonable of you." He Yuzhu withdrew the cigarette pack, "The East Cross Courtyard is my Siqiang's house, and those who came are all his relatives. How do guests staying at a relative's house become bandits? If that's the case, I could also say you are bandits in disguise!"

"Hey! You little brat, you're not very big, but your tone is quite something!" the pockmarked man cursed.

"It's mainly because you were unreasonable first that I'm like this. It's not impossible for you to search, but I must follow along. Otherwise, if the Big Ocean I hid goes missing, where would I go to reason?"

The pockmarked man looked at He Yuzhu's cynical state and his murderous gaze, shivered, and said: "Following along is fine, lead the way!"

He shouted to the others: "Let's go, head straight to the East Cross Courtyard to search!"

He Yuzhu's heart skipped a beat; someone must have reported it, otherwise, they couldn't have such a clear target!

This is bad! If Ershuan and the others hid the weapons too far apart, his Space Collection function wouldn't be able to reach them, and it would be all over.

If these people really dared to make arrests, he would finish them off.

Having let that child soldier go, only to end up being the one wanted, He Yuzhu had transformed.

He would never show mercy to anyone who threatened his family or his own safety.

Seeing a group of Police enter, Shen Guizhi lost all mood to wrap buns and handed the matter over to Yi Zhonghai's wife.

The three little girls were so scared they hid upstairs, peeking secretly, their little faces pale with fright.

Some of the residents in the courtyard retreated into their own homes one after another and closed their doors.

For a moment, you could hear a pin drop in the courtyard.

In the East Cross Courtyard, there was a flurry of activity. Ershuan buried the guns under the old locust tree, Wang Qiang...

The pockmarked man ordered: "Search separately!"

He Yuzhu blocked them with his hand, "Did you forget what I just told you? I'll call everyone out, and you can search room by room!"

The pockmarked man cursed: "You don't know what's good for you!"

He Yuzhu quickly gripped his neck, with a speed so fast it was astonishing.

Several Police officers were about to draw their guns.

He Yuzhu gradually applied pressure, and the pockmarked man felt himself suffocating, so he hurriedly said: "Listen to him!"

He Yuzhu let go, and the pockmarked man gritted his teeth, but didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore.

With He Yuzhu following closely behind, the Police searched one by one. When they first arrived at Wang Qiang's house, there was nothing in the room except for a bedroll on the kang and a few pieces of furniture.

After searching for a long time, they finally set their sights on the stove and the kang tunnel.

An old Police officer squatted down, reached in to grope around for a while, and seemingly dissatisfied with the depth, turned back and shouted: "Boss, it's quite deep in here, let Xiao Qiu crawl in and take a look."

Hearing this, the pockmarked man pursed his lips at a thin, small Police officer behind him: "You, crawl in and take a look."

Standing to the side, Wang Qiang felt a fine layer of cold sweat instantly seep out on his forehead.

He had used a long stick to push the guns to the very back; if this person crawled in any further...

Xiao Qiu actually crawled into the kang tunnel, while the pockmarked man stared fixedly at Wang Qiang.

Wang Qiang feigned calmness, but his clenched fists were full of sweat, and Wang Shenzi's body was trembling slightly.

The pockmarked Police Officer leaned against the door frame with his arms crossed, a smug smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.

He had already concluded that there must be something wrong with this family.

Xiao Qiu crawled into the kang tunnel and lit a match to search carefully, but after searching for a long time, he found nothing.

When he came out with a face full of black soot, he coughed repeatedly: "Boss, damn it, there's nothing in there but rat droppings!"

The pockmarked man's smile froze on his face, and he said offhandedly: "Tear the kang apart!"

He Yuzhu immediately cursed: "Don't you fucking push your luck, do you really think I'm someone to be trifled with? Go ask your superiors if they know who Shen Shichang is... that's my uncle! If you insist on acting recklessly today, you won't even know how you died when the time comes!"

Upon hearing this, the pockmarked man's expression shifted uncertainly.

He stared viciously at He Yuzhu for a moment, then suddenly put on a smiling face, pushed the thin Police officer aside, squatted in front of the kang tunnel himself to peer inside, and then said: "Since there's no problem here, let's check the next room."

He Yuzhu secretly pondered that during the New Year, he would have to go visit this distant uncle. Using him to borrow authority was quite effective.

He Yuzhu continued to lead them to search the Li Family.

As soon as they entered the Li Family's door, he used the system to detect that Li Lin had put the guns and bullets into the water vat.

He felt that this Li Lin's ability to handle emergencies was too poor; rather than putting the guns in the water vat, it would be better to keep them on his person, so he could still fight the enemy in a crisis.

As soon as the pockmarked man entered the main room, he headed straight for the water vat.

He Yuzhu saw Li Lin's body tense up, as if he were about to pounce at any moment.

But the pockmarked man just put the lid back on the water vat.

Li Lin could no longer hold on and went outside to smoke.

This group of people didn't find anything in the house, so they went to search the courtyard.

The old Police officer stood by the old locust tree for a while, found a shovel, and started digging.

Ershuan walked up to He Yuzhu and blinked his eyes desperately.

He Yuzhu ignored him.

In the end, the old Police officer didn't dig up anything.

Ershuan let out a long breath.

He Yuzhu said: "Officer, that's about enough!"

The pockmarked man walked up to He Yuzhu and cupped his hands: "Brother, I'm sorry about this time, but I'm also just doing my duty and had no choice."

He Yuzhu took ten Big Ocean coins out of his pocket and flipped them back and forth in his hand, making a crisp sound, "Tell me who reported it. This money will be yours!"

The pockmarked man shook his head, "This, I really can't tell you."

He Yuzhu nodded, "Even if you didn't say it, I had already guessed as much!"

He Yuzhu sent the Police away, and only then did Wang Qiang set his heart at ease; he quickly went to the kang cavity to look for the gun, found it very soon, and laughed heartily with a sense of relief: "Heaven will not be the end of me!"

Li Lin also ran quickly to the side of the water vat and fished out both the gun and the bullets.

The three of them looked at He Yuzhu with curious eyes and said, "Zhuzi, what kind of method did you use? It's so powerful."

He Yuzhu smiled, "It's just an Illusion used in magic tricks; even if they see things, they won't discover them. However, this ability of mine has a distance limit; it doesn't work if they are too far away. Today's matter was still quite dangerous, especially for Li Shu; hiding the gun in the water vat was too rash."

Li Lin nodded hurriedly, "I'm sorry, it was my fault."

He Yuzhu brought the few of them into the woodshed, pried open a brick, and said, "The secret passage leads to a drainage ditch outside the courtyard. From now on, when the three of you are in the courtyard, there must be someone on guard."

The three of them began to study the matter of taking shifts.

He Yuzhu returned home, and Shen Guizhi took He Yuzhu's hand and asked, "Zhuzi, why did the Police come to the door just after we got back?"

"Right now, our relationship with the Li Family, the Xu Family, and the Jia Family in the Houyuan is not good; you must be careful in the future."

"Are you saying they were the ones who reported it?" Shen Guizhi asked.

"I don't know about that," He Yuzhu said.

The notice offering a reward for the capture of the murderer who assassinated the Deputy Mayor had been posted at the city gate for less than half a month before it was gradually forgotten and had no follow-up. It was mainly because the transfer of the instigator, Officer Li, caused those specifically in charge to lose interest.

This case, which had once caused a sensation throughout the city, was thus left unsettled.

He Yuzhu's hanging heart gradually settled, and his tense nerves also relaxed.

Yet his footsteps did not cease; it was not easy to get some ammunition, and he had been to the 35th Army in Fengtai, the Cavalry 4th Division in Nanyuan, the 13th Army in Miyun, and also the 16th Army in Changping.

Every time he entered the armories of these Military Camps, he would not take all the ammunition away, but only take a portion; in this way, even if they knew things were missing, the officers would think it was theft by those guarding it and would not investigate with great fanfare.

After He Yuzhu gathered the things, he drove to Pingshan County.

He Daqing looked at the boxes of ammunition and medicine, excited to the point of being overwhelmed, "Zhuzi, you have performed a great service this time; stay for a few days, and when Regimental Commander Yang returns, I will request a commendation for you."

"Dad, I won't stay; I have to go back. I'm a bit worried about home. You take care of your safety!"

Seeing that He Yuzhu was in a hurry to leave, He Daqing quickly took a lot of flatbread from the Cooking Squad, "Eat on the road."

He Yuzhu turned the car around.

He Daqing's figure became smaller and smaller in the rearview mirror, and he suddenly thought of all the various things over these years, from the beginning when he had just transmigrated and gritted his teeth in hatred toward him, to now seeing things in a new light; this could also be considered a small gain from his transmigration journey this time!

He picked up a piece of flatbread and took a big bite with a "Crack!", hey, it was actually quite salty! Unknowingly, his eye sockets were actually a bit moist.
