Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

When Xu Damao left the steel mill, Tian Yanjun appeared near Xie Laoer's house. Staring at the compound where Xie Laoer lived for a while, Tian Yanjun muttered to himself: "I didn't expect that Xie Laoer was the smartest among them. It seems that I still underestimated him."

After a while, Tian Yanjun saw that Xie Laoer had not returned, and he did not dare to go in to look for Xie Laoer. Tian Yanjun could only give up temporarily. It was probably because Tian Yanjun's luck was not good. As soon as Tian Yanjun left, Xie Laoer came back from outside, greeted the neighbors, walked to the door of his house, took out the key, unlocked the door, and walked in.

After lying on the bed for a while, Xie Laoer started to pack his things. After more than an hour of work, Xie Laoer carried his luggage and went out.

At the same time, Zhou Jin rode a three-wheeled motorcycle to the detention center. After parking the car, Zhou Jin came to the outside of the interrogation room. Zhou Jin opened the small window on the door and looked inside, then walked to the side and lit a cigarette. After a day of interrogation, except for Scarface and a few people who had a good relationship with Scarface, who were still dreaming that Tian Yanjun would come back to save them, the others began to feel a little overwhelmed.

About a quarter of an hour later, Song Lin walked out of the interrogation room. Zhou Jin asked, "How's the interrogation going?"

Song Lin did not say anything, and handed the interrogation record to Zhou Jin. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, took out a cigarette, lit it and started smoking. After about five or six minutes, Zhou Jin closed the interrogation record and asked, "How much do you think they said is true?!"

Song Lin replied: "Not 80%, but at least 70%. But I think if we want to know more, we have to pry open Scarface's secret."

Zhou Jin asked: "Have you figured out Scarface's situation?!"

Song Lin replied: "No! The few people who were informed are not clear about his situation. This guy seems very mysterious. Another person named Dong Erbao said that there is someone behind Scarface. This person is also a high-ranking official."

"Is there someone behind me?!" Zhou Jin muttered, and his brows immediately frowned. Tian Yanjun's figure flashed through Zhou Jin's mind, and he muttered, "Could it be him?!"

Song Lin asked: "Lao Zhou, who are you talking about?!"

Zhou Jin said, "Who else could it be? Tian Yanjun. I suspected him back then. He was later transferred away. I didn't expect to meet him in Sijiu City."

Song Lin asked, "Are you still investigating what happened back then?!"

Zhou Jin nodded and said, "What happened back then was very strange. If it had nothing to do with him, many things would be inexplicable." Suddenly Zhou Jin remembered who the scarface man was and looked fiercely at Song Lin.

Song Lin asked: "What's the matter?!"

Zhou Jin smiled and said, "I always felt like I've seen this scarred face somewhere before. Now I remember it. He was a fish that slipped through the net back then."

Song Lin threw down his cigarette butt, raised his wrist to check his watch, and said, "It's still early, how about we both interrogate him together?!"

Zhou Jin said: "It's time to try him."

After about ten minutes, Scarface was brought into the interrogation room. When Scarface sat on the interrogation chair, Zhou Jin smiled and asked, "Do you still recognize me?!"

Scarface looked at Zhou Jin and replied, "I don't know him."

Zhou Jin smiled and said, "You don't know me. But I know you. How about I give you a reminder?!" Zhou Jin stared at Scarface for a few seconds, then said, "March 1946, 3. Do you remember this day?!"

Scarface suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Jin. He unconsciously thought of the scar on his face and continued to play dumb and said, "I don't understand what you mean."

Zhou Jin said, "Although some of you escaped back then, many of you were still caught. These people are not dead. They are still in prison. How about I help you find them and let you meet them?!"

Scarface lowered his head and said, "I don't understand what you are saying?!"

"Bang!" Zhou Jin slammed the table and yelled, "Chen Jiyuan! Do you still want to continue playing dumb?!"

Scarface had never expected that Zhou Jin still remembered him. Scarface knew that he would not be able to get through this test today, so he smiled bitterly and said, "I have been hiding for so long, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't escape."

Zhou Jin asked: "I'm very curious, who helped you escape? Who helped you to replace Li Jiang with Tao?!"

Scarface asked back: "I'm also curious, how did you recognize me?!"

Zhou Jin replied: "The look in your eyes."

Scarface smiled bitterly and said, "I never thought that even though I tried so hard to change my face shape by chewing betel nuts, you still found out."

Scarface asked, "How's Yanxi?!"

Zhou Jin replied, "She's fine." Then he said, "Shouldn't we talk about you now?!"

Scarface knew that his fate was sealed the moment his identity was recognized. Since he couldn't escape, it would be a good idea to drag a few more people down with him. Scarface said, "The reason I was able to escape was all thanks to Tian Yanjun. Because I had leverage over Tian Yanjun."

Zhou Jin asked: "What handle?!"

Scarface said very calmly: "Tian Yanjun was once captured by the Japanese. Although he was rescued by you, he had already defected. Later, the Japanese surrendered, and the files of some defectors fell into our hands. I contacted him when I went to Yan'an for the first time. But in order to keep this chess piece, I didn't take the initiative to contact him later. Until I was caught by you. He came to me and asked me to give him his materials and he would help me escape. I agreed to his conditions. Later, I escaped with his help. After a while, I asked someone to send back what he wanted to him. Three years ago, I met him in Sijiucheng. Like you, he recognized me at first sight. Later, in order to save our lives and to get what we needed, we started to cooperate. Not to mention, he is really a very good partner. It's a pity that I failed this time."

Zhou Jin asked, "What do you want to do in the courtyard house in Nanluoguxiang?!"

Scarface replied, "Treasure hunting."

"Treasure hunt?!" Zhou Jin frowned slightly and asked, "What treasure?!"

Scarface said, "I don't know what it is specifically. Half a year ago, when Tian Yanjun gave me the treasure map, he told me it was an ancient treasury. I asked someone to study the treasure map. Then the first two incidents happened. But we searched those two courtyards and didn't find anything. No. 95 Nanluoguxiang is our third target, and we didn't expect to fail this time."

Zhou Jin said: "You never fight a battle you are not sure of winning."

Scarface knew what Zhou Jin wanted to ask, and said, "It's because you have stepped up patrols recently. I was afraid that the noise would be too loud and attract you. If I had known it would end up like this, I wouldn't have been so careful."

Zhou Jin said: "I have told you long ago that the law is long and narrow. Even if you can escape for a while, you can't escape forever. You are a proud person. You don't want to leave any regrets for yourself, right?!"

Scarface's mouth curled up slightly, and he said with a smile: "There is a courtyard in the alley behind the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital on Dong'anmen North Street. That's where I stayed. There is a secret compartment under the seventh floor tile against the wall in the kitchen. There is something you want in it. In addition, when I took action that day, I arranged a lookout. That person did not give any warning, and was not caught by you. I guess he must have looked for Tian Yanjun. This person is called Xie Wenxi, and his current name is Xie Laoer. He lives in a large courtyard not far from Maxiang Hutong Primary School. If my guess is correct, he must have searched my place and also looked for Tian Yanjun."

Zhou Jin asked: "Xie Wenxi knows Tian Yanjun?!"

Scarface replied, "I know him! He is very familiar to me. You can say that he was sent by Tian Yanjun to monitor me."
