Life in the courtyard is still plain and beautiful. Everyone supports each other and faces the challenges of life together. Xu Damao also gradually finds his place in this environment. He knows that only by truly changing himself can he win the respect and trust of others. This experience will also become a valuable lesson in his life, making him more determined and down-to-earth in the future.

As Lu Ning said, everyone has the opportunity to make mistakes, but what is more important is how to face mistakes and how to correct oneself. Xu Damao deeply remembered this truth. He knew that only by continuous efforts can a brighter future be welcomed. Life in the courtyard continued, and everyone was fighting for their dreams and goals, and Xu Damao was no exception.

The afternoon sun shines on the blue bricks and gray tiles of the courtyard, and a hint of uneasiness is faintly revealed in the quiet atmosphere. Uncle Yi Zhonghai stands in the middle of the courtyard, frowning, with thoughts surging. He has always been an experienced person, knowing everything inside and outside the courtyard, but the recent frequent contact between Xu Damao and Lu Ning makes him suspicious. He thinks there is something fishy, ​​but he doesn't know what it is.

Yi Zhonghai decided to go and find out for himself. He walked to Xu Damao's door and knocked gently. After a while, the door opened and Xu Damao stood at the door, looking a little surprised.

"Uncle, why are you here? Is there anything?" Xu Damao asked with a smile, but there was a hint of unnaturalness in that smile.

"Oh, I'm just walking around to see how everyone is doing." Yi Zhonghai responded casually, but his eyes were sharp as he observed Xu Damao's every move. "Recently, I saw you and Lu Ning were very close. Is there something going on?"

Xu Damao's smile froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal: "Nothing special, uncle. We are just ordinary friends, just chatting."

Yi Zhonghai nodded, but he was not satisfied with this answer. He knew that Xu Damao was usually cunning and would always speak in a roundabout way, and would not easily tell him the truth. So he decided to find another opportunity and start from another aspect.

A few days later, Yi Zhonghai noticed Lu Ning drying clothes in the yard. He walked over and said casually, "Xiao Lu, why do I often see you and Xu Damao together recently? Are you busy with something?"

When Lu Ning heard this, her eyes flickered for a moment, but she quickly calmed down: "Uncle, it's nothing special, just a chat between friends."

Yi Zhonghai was even more confused, but he knew that he would not get anything out of asking any more questions, so he smiled and nodded: "That's good, remember to tell me if there is anything, we are a family in the courtyard, we should take care of each other."

As time went by, Yi Zhonghai found that Xu Damao and Lu Ning's behavior became more and more strange. The two often talked in a low voice in the corner, and sometimes went out together, with mysterious whereabouts. This made Yi Zhonghai more curious, but he knew that direct questioning would not get the truth.

One night, Yi Zhonghai decided to wait and see. He quietly hid in a corner of the yard, waiting for Xu Damao and Lu Ning to appear. Soon, he saw the two of them meet in the yard again. He held his breath, pricked up his ears, and tried to hear their conversation clearly.

"Lu Ning, don't let anyone else know about this, especially Uncle Yi." Xu Damao said in a low voice with a serious expression.

"I know, but what if..." Lu Ning seemed a little hesitant, but was quickly interrupted by Xu Damao.

"There must be no chance of any accidents. We must keep it secret." Xu Damao said firmly.

Although Yi Zhonghai didn't hear the entire content, the word "confidential" had already made him feel a chill in his heart. He decided to keep silent for the time being and wait until the right time to take action.

In the following days, Yi Zhonghai was still as amiable as usual, but secretly he was observing the movements of Xu Damao and Lu Ning. By chance, he discovered that Xu Damao seemed to be hiding something at home. So he found an excuse to visit Xu Damao and took the opportunity to observe his home.

Xu Damao received Yi Zhonghai. Although he was enthusiastic, Yi Zhonghai felt a little nervous. After they exchanged a few pleasantries, Yi Zhonghai deliberately said, "Damo, I see you seem to have a lot of new things at home recently."

Xu Damao smiled and said, "Nothing much, just some small things."

Yi Zhonghai secretly noted the changes in Xu Damao's expression, and he became more certain that there must be something hidden. He decided to continue to follow up until he found out the truth.

A few days later, Lu Ning met a familiar neighbor in the yard and they started chatting. Yi Zhonghai deliberately walked over and interrupted: "Xiao Lu, have you been worried recently? You seem a little absent-minded."

Lu Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Nothing, sir, I'm just a little tired from work."

When Xu Damao learned that Yi Zhonghai was trying to find out about his disappearance, he hid himself.

After hitting Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao quickly withdrew his hand, with a sinister look in his eyes. He knew that Yi Zhonghai was an old fox and would definitely suspect him, so after hitting him, he immediately pretended to walk away and returned to his room.

Yi Zhonghai was caught off guard by the beating, and his head was dizzy. He barely managed to stand up. He covered the place where he was hit, frowned and looked around, but did not find any suspicious figures. He felt that this matter was related to Xu Damao, but without solid evidence, he could only grit his teeth secretly.

Back in the house, Yi Zhonghai sat at the table, thinking about what had just happened. He knew that Xu Damao had been behaving strangely recently, and there must be some shameful secrets, but now that he was beaten, he had to be careful. He decided to keep quiet for the time being and continue to observe.

In the next few days, Yi Zhonghai pretended that nothing had happened, and continued to move around in the courtyard, greeting neighbors from time to time, appearing very natural. Seeing this, Xu Damao gradually relaxed, thinking that he had done a perfect job.

One night, the courtyard was exceptionally quiet, with only the sound of the breeze blowing the leaves. Xu Damao lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He thought about his secret, feeling uneasy, and always felt that something bad was going to happen.

At the same time, Yi Zhonghai hid in the room, quietly sorting out some information. He planned to find an opportunity to explore Xu Damao's secret again. This time, he would not act rashly, but would make full preparations and strive to hit the target in one shot.

A few days later, Yi Zhonghai finally got a good opportunity. That day, Xu Damao was out for something, so Yi Zhonghai sneaked into Xu Damao's room and began to search carefully. He searched carefully, fearing that he would miss any clues.

Finally, in a hidden corner, Yi Zhonghai found some suspicious documents. He quickly browsed through them and found that these documents were indeed involved in some secret activities of Xu Damao, and might even involve illegal acts. Yi Zhonghai was excited, he knew he had caught Xu Damao's handle, but he also knew that he had to stay calm now and not alert the enemy.
