Chapter 788 Lu Jia panicked
On the other side, He Yuzhu hummed a little tune and returned home happily. Seeing He Yuzhu's happy look, Lu Jia couldn't help but ask curiously: "Brother Zhuzi, you look so happy, is Liu Guangtian's problem solved?"
He Yuzhu smiled and waved his hands, saying, "It's not Liu Guangtian's business. Did you know that the deaf old lady in the backyard was actually named Zhang Ying, and she was a reactionary! She has been arrested and her house has been returned to the state."
Lu Jia didn't look surprised when she heard this. After all, she came to this courtyard with only one purpose in mind, which was to find a way to deal with Gu Nan. She didn't care about other things at all. However, in order not to arouse He Yuzhu's suspicion, she still followed the topic and asked, "Brother Zhuzi, this deaf old lady is usually very nice to you. The people above won't suspect you because of this, right?"
Lu Jia was afraid that He Yuzhu would be arrested, what would happen to her plan then?
He Yuzhu smiled confidently and said, "We are just ordinary neighbors. Although the deaf old lady... No, now she should be called Zhang Ying, she used to be nice to me, but I also took care of her. The people above will definitely investigate in detail. If they really suspect me, how could they let me go so easily?"
Lu Jia nodded and continued to ask, "I never thought that the deaf old lady who treated you so well was actually a reactionary. But how did the higher-ups find out?" He Yuzhu shook his head helplessly and said, "I really don't know. These kinds of things are always handled by the higher-ups. How could they possibly tell me this?"
Lu Jia was actually always thinking about Ma Zi and the others. She had planned to find an opportunity to secretly visit them, but she was worried that if they were discovered by the police, they would find out some clues and cause trouble for her, so she didn't dare to act. After hesitating for a while, she looked at He Yuzhu and asked, "Brother Zhuzi, have you seen Liu Guangtian and the others? I'm a little worried about that kid Liu Guangtian."
He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Although I haven't seen Liu Guangtian in person, I heard from others that the people Liu Guangtian found were all big thieves who had committed serious crimes. Their crimes were very serious and they have all been shot."
After hearing this, Lu Jia's heart tightened a little, but on the surface she pretended to be calm and said, "Oh, it's so serious..." She thought to herself that it seemed that this matter was more complicated than she had imagined, and she had to be more careful.
Lu Jia's heart felt as if it was pierced by thousands of needles at the same time, and she was in great pain. That pockmarked brother grew up with her. From childhood to adulthood, he took care of her meticulously, just like treating his own sister. Every scene of him taking care of her was replayed in her mind like a movie.
She raised her head, her eyes full of pain and fatigue, looked at He Yuzhu, and said with a slightly trembling voice: "Brother Zhuzi, I feel really bad, I'll go back first." Lu Jia is currently still temporarily living in He Yushui's house. Although they have been together for a while, she still feels a little uncomfortable in her heart. After all, this is not her real home.
He Yuzhu was keenly aware of Lu Jia's strange expression. He approached her with concern, looked at her face carefully, and asked, "Lu Jia, what's wrong with you? You look so bad, do you have a cold?"
Lu Jia's heart was filled with pain. She didn't want to say anything at the moment. She just felt so depressed that she couldn't breathe. She originally planned to go back directly, but for some reason, the words on her lips turned into: "Brother Zhuzi, go buy some food, and we can have a drink together."
Although He Yuzhu was very confused about Lu Jia's sudden proposal, seeing that she looked uncomfortable and didn't seem to be joking, he nodded and said, "Okay, you wait at home, I'll go buy some wine." After that, he turned around and hurried out.
As soon as He Yuzhu left, Lu Jia seemed to have lost all support and collapsed to the ground. She stared to the side with empty eyes, tears welling up in her eyes, gritted her teeth and whispered: "Brother, Mazi brother, your spirits in heaven can rest assured, I will definitely avenge you, Gu Nan will definitely die, you can rest assured."
Lu Jia was full of self-blame. She never thought that she had wanted to avenge her brother, but she didn't want to kill Mazi too. At this moment, she felt like a complete sinner. The guilt in her heart was like a huge rock pressing on her and making her breathless. She even wanted to end her life immediately to seek relief.
However, when she thought of Gu Nan still at large, she resisted the urge. She could only cry silently, but she dared not cry out loud. She could only bite her arm hard, trying to use the physical pain to relieve the pain in her heart.
After a long time, Lu Jia slowly stood up, walked to the basin, and washed her face with cold water. The cold water made her a little more sober. She knew that Gu Nan was not a simple character and had many tricks. If she wanted to deal with Gu Nan, she had to plan carefully and could not make any mistakes.
Lu Jia thought to herself that there were very few people around her who could be used. She had originally thought of using Liu Guangtian, but after this incident, she realized that she had to find another way.
Just as Lu Jia was in a state of confusion and wild thoughts, He Yuzhu came back with wine and food. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lu Jia standing there blankly, looking a little dazed, so he asked with concern: "Lu Jia, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"
Lu Jia quickly forced a smile and said, "It's okay, Brother Zhuzi, I just suddenly felt like drinking today."
He Yuzhu looked at Lu Jia's forced smile and felt something was wrong, but he couldn't ask any more questions. He could only smile and respond, "I can drink quite well. Since you want to drink, I'll drink with you. Maybe after drinking, you'll feel better."
At this moment, Lu Jia just wanted to get herself drunk, because she felt that she had no relatives now, and the world seemed to have become extremely cold all of a sudden. Under the influence of alcohol, she gradually lost consciousness and didn't even know how she rested.
On the other side, in the dark and damp prison, Zhang Ying kept his mouth shut and said nothing. He had his own plan in mind. Although he knew that his former companions would not risk saving him, as long as he kept his mouth shut and said nothing, the people above him would not kill him easily because he knew many secrets.
