Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

Chapter 249: Dark and Windy Night (1)

After returning home, the couple, who had been busy all day, realized that they had not even eaten yet.

"Old Li, how about we come to my house for a meal?" said Political Commissar Ma.

"Uncle Ma, let me do it today! Actually, I'm a pretty good cook, and today is a good opportunity to show you my skills." Li Kangri said with a smile.

"Really? Then I won't go home for dinner. Let's see how your cooking skills compare to your sister's?" said Political Commissar Ma.

"Haha, Uncle Ma, that's fine. You and Lao Li sit for a while. Xiao Liu and I will go get some food. We haven't cooked at home for a long time and don't even have any food."

……

An hour later, at the Li family's dining table, Li Kangri prepared a sumptuous dinner because he was afraid that Li Renyi would have no appetite.

"Kang Ri, you are a pretty good cook! I'm really hungry looking at this table full of delicious dishes," Political Commissar Ma praised.

"Uncle Ma, you're too kind. It's just average. Come and eat quickly. And Lao Li," said Li Kangri.

"Yes, eat first. Old Li, pick up your chopsticks, quickly. I believe this is also the first time you eat the food cooked by your son!" said Political Commissar Ma.

As he said that, he picked up a piece of food and started eating, "Hmm...it tastes good, Lao Li, eat quickly."

But Old Li had no appetite at all facing the table full of dishes. He was still thinking about Zhou Shiya.

"Old Li, how about getting some wine? I see you have a lot of good wine in your room, and it makes me greedy." Li Kangri said, and winked at Political Commissar Ma.

"Yes, drink well today to get rid of the bad luck you've been having lately. You won't be reluctant to let me go, will you, Old Li?" Political Commissar Ma said with a smile.

"Okay, drink some, it's good to drink some." Li Renyi said.

In this way, the meal lasted until late at night, and Li Renyi was drunk.

Three months later, on a Saturday afternoon, in Li Kangri's office, Li Kangri was refining medicine in the Shanhe Shejitu when suddenly there was a knock on the office door. "Is Brother Li in?" Li Huaide knocked on the door.

"exist!"

In an instant, Li Kangri walked out of the map of mountains, rivers, and the country.

After opening the door, Li Huaide walked in and said, "Brother, I'm here today to tell you about the matter you asked me to investigate."

"Brother Li still has a way. Is there news so soon?" Li Kangri said politely.

"Hey, these are all small matters. I know some people. The death of your Lao Li's wife was indeed abnormal. According to the people present that day, she was already dead when they found her, and Director Zou had been in prison before that," Li Huaide said. "And I also found out that Director Zou had pursued Zhou Shiya before, but was intercepted by your Lao Li."

"Brother Li, what do you think about this matter?" Li Kangri asked. In fact, he had already guessed how the matter would develop.

"Hey! Brother, let's talk about this! You can figure it out with your ass. When a woman is in trouble and the man she can't get is caught, what do you think he will do? There is no need to think about it. He will definitely force her to submit, but she refuses, and he forces her too hard, so... hehe." Li Huaide analyzed.

"Yeah, I think so too. None of these bastards are good." Li Kangri said bitterly, "And that guy surnamed Liu is also a vicious dog who eats people without leaving any bones."

"Haha, Brother Li, let me remind you that it's not a good time to meddle in other people's business. You can't provoke them. There are people supporting each of them, and now is the time when they are at the peak of their careers. If you are not careful, you will get yourself into trouble." Li Huaide reminded.

"Thank you Brother Li for the reminder. I was just complaining. I don't need to do anything about these bastards. God will take them away sooner or later." Li Kangri said.

"It's good that you know," Li Huaide said, "You go ahead and do your work. I have something to deal with. Don't eat in the afternoon. Let's have dinner together in the evening. I'll be the host."

"Okay, Brother Li, I haven't eaten with you for a long time. I have this for you. I have prepared it for you a long time ago."

As he spoke, Li Kangri gave Li Renyi a large bottle of Feilong Dan.

Seeing the Feilong Pill, Li Renyi smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into slits, "Hey, brother, thanks! I've been waiting for it for several days. Your thing is really good. I really can't live without it." Li Huaide said with a smile.

"Brother Li, what are you saying? Do we need to say thank you to each other?" Li Kangri said with a smile.

"Yes, it's my fault. I'll punish myself by drinking three cups of wine later. You go ahead and do your work. I'm going back."

After saying that, Li Huaide took the medicine and left the office contentedly.

After Li Huaide left, Li Kangri closed the door and said to himself with a smile, "Liu Guizi, Zou Shiliang, tonight is the day you both die."

As he spoke, a perfect plan appeared in his mind.

In the evening, Li Kangri walked into the kitchen of the steel rolling mill canteen. At that time, Sha Zhu was cooking.

"Master, why are you here? I'm cooking for you! It will be ready soon. Please sit down first and I will bring it to you." Sha Zhu said.

"Zhu Zi, I'm not here to urge you to cook. I need your help with something else."

"Master, what's the matter? Tell me."

"Once the dishes are served, you stay at the door and don't let anyone in to disturb me and your uncle Li. We have important things to discuss." Li Kangri said seriously.

"Okay, Master." Sha Zhu agreed.

"Remember, no one can come in, you have to watch out." Li Kangri emphasized.

"Hey, Master, don't worry. I'm here to protect you. There will be absolutely no problem." Sha Zhu assured.

Soon, all the dishes were served, and Li Kangri and Li Huaide started to toast each other. After two hours of eating, two bottles of Moutai were empty. Just when the third bottle of wine was opened, Li Kangri secretly put a sleeping pill in Li Huaide's glass.

After drinking the drugged wine, Li Huaide fell asleep quickly. Seeing Li Huaide asleep, Li Kangri opened the window and jumped out. Then, under the cover of darkness, he left the steel mill and went straight to a yard of Liu Guizi.

He had already scouted the spot. Liu Guizi would go to that yard almost every Saturday and put something there.

When he arrived at the yard, Li Kangri saw that the lights were on inside. Without hesitation, Li Kangri climbed over the wall and pushed the door open.

At this time, Liu Guizi was packing up the things he brought in the house. When he heard the sound, he raised his head and saw Li Kangri looking at him with a smile.

"It's you? How do you know this place..." Liu Guizi exclaimed.

"Haha, why can't I come?" Li Kangri said with a smile, "I came to see how much you looted. You are smart and know that these things cannot be kept at home."

Hearing Li Kangri's words, Liu Guizi broke out in a cold sweat and his heart was pounding, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "Comrade Li, what do you mean? It seems that we have no grudges in the past or in the present! If I remember correctly, I seem to have helped you before."

"Haha, Liu Guizi, I am Li Renyi's son, my name is Li Kangri, what do you think I mean?" Li Kangri said with a smile.

Hearing that Li Kangri had revealed his family's identity, Political Commissar Liu said, "I see. I was wondering before! Why would you save Li Renyi regardless of the consequences? Now I finally understand. But what did you want to do when you came into my room today? To pick me up? Haha, I advise you not to do that. You should know how strong my backing is."

"Well, I know, so I'm not going to send you." Li Kangri said with a smile.

"That's right. People should know when to advance and when to retreat. Let's put it this way! I won't ask you to come here in vain," said Political Commissar Liu, taking out a small yellow croaker.

"This is my hush money for you, what do you think?"
