Siheyuan: Joined the Intelligence Department, my father is a national level

Chapter 382 Discussions

Director Wang stared at his men busying around as they carefully fixed the eye-catching poster on the wall.

After completing the initial actions, Director Wang nodded gently to the people around him. It was a subtle but clear signal, indicating that they should take action immediately and go and notify more residents in the courtyard.

Seeing this, Aunt Yan could no longer suppress her excitement. She almost ran forward, eager to take part in it.

Her eyes were fixed on the big-character poster. Although she was not very literate, she was able to grasp the core content of the poster through the brief explanations of the people around her. Her face was filled with excitement and a sense of justice that was difficult to conceal.

Without any additional summons, the residents in the courtyard had already been attracted by the hustle and bustle outside the courtyard.

No matter people were busy at home or taking a break, they all walked out of their houses and gathered in this small open space, curiously trying to find out what was happening.

Even the sisters Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru, who usually stayed indoors, walked out of the room hand in hand and joined the sudden crowd.

Qin Huairu had already heard about Yi Zhonghai's actions. She had never expected that besides herself, there were other people who had seen through the truth of it all and chose to make it public in such a direct and powerful way.

However, she might not have imagined that the source of the truth would be an unintentional remark of her own.

"Sister, do you think the big-character poster is really written specifically for Yi Zhonghai?"

Qin Jingru widened her eyes and looked at Qin Huairu with curiosity, with a hint of uncertainty in her tone.

She stood on tiptoe, trying to see something through the gaps in the crowd, but finally gave up and stood still.

Qin Huairu sneered when he heard this, and that smile was full of sarcasm and disdain for Yi Zhonghai's behavior.

"Haha, since he did something like that, he should pay the price for it. Now that he has received such a punishment, it can be regarded as what he deserves. There is nothing wrong with it."

Her words revealed a refreshing sense of satisfaction in settling scores. It was obvious that she had long been dissatisfied with Yi Zhonghai's recent targeting and harassment. Now that she saw that he was receiving the punishment he deserved, she naturally felt relieved.

When Li Youquan returned, the courtyard was bustling with noise. People were having a heated discussion on a certain topic. He naturally slowed down his pace, attracted by the excitement, and stopped to listen.

When he caught the information of "big-character posters on the streets" from the fragments of words from others, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Although he had already foreseen that the turmoil between Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui would quickly escalate, the street's quick and direct reaction still exceeded his expectations.

He thought to himself that perhaps there were more pressing considerations behind this.

In fact, Li Youquan's surprise was understandable.

After all, the strong social response caused by this incident is no longer comparable to ordinary trivial matters.

In order to promptly curb the further deterioration of the situation and maintain the harmony and stability of the community, the street had to take decisive measures to speed up the handling of this sensitive incident.

He stood quietly at the edge of the crowd, not rushing to squeeze into the core area, but just observing and listening silently.

At this time, many curious neighbors had gathered in front of the big-character poster. They were either standing or whispering, or looking closely. The atmosphere was tense and full of curiosity.

"Hey, what exactly is written on it? Can anyone interpret it for us?"

An aunt asked while cracking melon seeds, her eyes full of curiosity and desire for unknown information.

However, just as everyone was talking, an old man suddenly cleared his throat and reminded everyone to pay attention to the occasion in a slightly majestic voice.

"Everyone, calm down. The community leaders are still here. Stop arguing and go and notify others if there are any families who haven't come yet. Ask them to come as well."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, the originally noisy scene gradually calmed down.

Director Wang's tense nerves relaxed a little. She knew very well that whether the matter was handled properly was directly related to the image and stability of the community.

Seeing that everyone gradually quieted down, her expression also relaxed a lot.

"Director Wang, most of the people who are at home are here now. The only ones left are those who haven't returned from get off work yet. After they get off work, we can organize them to come and read the big-character posters."

The old man just now walked up to Director Wang again and reported the situation in a low voice.

Originally, the leader of this incident should have been Yan Bugui, but at this moment he was taken away by the Security Department for some reason and was unable to arrive at the scene.

Therefore, the old man could only take on this responsibility temporarily, report the situation to Director Wang and coordinate follow-up matters.

"Okay, today we are posting big-character posters mainly because of Yi Zhonghai from your courtyard."

Director Wang nodded, cleared his throat again, and prepared to explain the situation to everyone.

"Everyone knows that Yi Zhonghai was hospitalized a few days ago due to injuries. However, the mistakes he made cannot be easily forgiven just because he was injured, so this time the street decided..."

Before Director Wang finished speaking, an aunt couldn't help but interrupt.

"Yeah, so how is Yi Zhonghai doing now? We are all very concerned about her."

Although she did not lower her voice deliberately, it just happened to reach everyone's ears, once again attracting everyone's attention and discussion.

"Please keep quiet, stop talking, and listen to Director Wang's speech!"

There was a hint of severity in the old man's voice. He glared at the person who was talking incessantly, as if warning him with his eyes to pay attention to the occasion.

The aunt originally wanted to interject a few words, but when she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Director Wang's gloomy face, she was suddenly startled and realized that she might have violated some taboo.

So she quickly shut her mouth, her eyes full of fear, afraid that her talkativeness would bring unnecessary trouble.

At this time, Aunt Yan was sitting aside, seemingly calm, but her heart was turbulent. When she heard someone accidentally mention the name "Yi Zhonghai", a flash of resentment flashed across her eyes.

To her, this name is not just a simple name, but also an indelible pain in her heart.

She clearly remembered that it was because of this person's existence that her home suffered an unexpected disaster and was engulfed by a raging fire.

Her husband was also implicated and is still being held in the security department, unable to reunite with his family.

Whenever she thought of this, Aunt Yan's heart was filled with endless anger and helplessness.
