After leaving Taohuawan Brigade, there were not many people on the road. Hua Rendong took out his bicycle from the space and rode all the way back to his home in Xinshi.

After parking the car and taking out the key, the door of the house next door opened and the handsome boy who I saw through the wall last time came out pushing a bicycle. When he saw Honeysuckle, he was stunned at first, and then he trotted over while pushing his bicycle.

"Erhua, Erhua, you haven't been home these few days?"

This was only the second time Hua Rendong had seen him. Seeing him calling her so intimately, she felt a little uncomfortable. She turned the bicycle she was holding, with the front of the bicycle facing the handsome boy, putting some distance between them.

There were always strange people coming and going around her these days. Hua Jindong didn't dare to trust any strangers who were so familiar with her. She asked with a smile: "Who are you? Are we familiar with each other?"

The handsome boy stood there, as if he had been betrayed. He stared at Hua Jindong for a long time with a hurt face before saying, "Don't you remember me? A few days ago, we were leaning on the wall together to watch the couple fighting."

That's right, Hua Honeysuckle wondered, "I've never seen it before?"

The handsome boy scratched his head, looking like he was thinking hard. After a long while, he asked uncertainly, "Have you seen it? Why don't I remember it?"

Well, now that she was sure that the original owner of the device she received was not incomplete in memory, Hua Rendong felt relieved and rolled her eyes at the handsome boy in annoyance, "I've never seen you before, and you called me so easily, I thought we were very familiar with each other."

The handsome boy chuckled, "Once is strange, twice is familiar. This is the second time we've met, so we can be considered half-acquainted. Besides, my grandma said that my mom held you when you were a child, and I was in her belly at that time. We have also said hello to each other, so how can we not be considered half-acquainted?"

The family the handsome boy came from was surnamed Yang. Hua Jindong had some impression of them. The old couple had three daughters in total. Two of them were married in Xinshi, and only the youngest married in another province, more than a thousand miles away, and they could not come back for many years.

This handsome boy should be the child of the old couple’s youngest daughter.

I just don't know why the daughter who married far away didn't come back, but her son did. Thinking about this era, the result of further guessing will probably not be too good. It's rare that the handsome boy is still quite optimistic.

If he wasn't born with a brain defect, then he would have kept all the family matters from him.

Seeing that Hua Jindong didn't reject him anymore, the handsome boy pushed his bicycle around to Hua Jindong's side and pointed at the house between the two houses, "You haven't heard yet? Something happened to this family. The day before yesterday, a group of big hats came and caught the couple from the basement. When they were arrested, the couple were still tied with vines. They also found several boxes of opium in their basement. That stuff harms people. It's been many years since the liberation, and his family still has that stuff. Even their children were taken away for interrogation."

After getting the answer she wanted, Hua Rendong's impression of the department was no longer simply unreliable. At least she gave them some clues, and they were able to follow the clues and catch the person.

I saw the handsome boy nagging again, saying that he had searched his grandmother's house thoroughly in the past two days, but couldn't find a basement.

Hua Honeysuckle said with a smile: "Do you think basements are so easy to dig? Every household is digging, maybe one day our area will collapse."

The handsome boy thought so and stopped worrying about it. He then talked about the fun places he had recently discovered around Xinshi.

Hua Rendong didn't have the heart to tell this silly boy that it wasn't that his grandmother's house didn't have a basement, it was just that he was stupid enough not to find it.

She saw it clearly, there were several boxes of money and treasures, which showed that the Yang family was once a wealthy family.

"Hey, don't you have to go out? It's getting late. I won't keep you here."

The handsome young man who was chattering nonstop seemed to have suddenly pressed the pause button, and he had to hold back the words that were on the tip of his tongue, and the resentment on his face was about to turn into reality.

Seeing Hua Rendong open the door and push the cart into the yard, the handsome boy had no choice but to say, "Erhua, my name is Fangzi Mo, I'm seventeen, I'll come play with you when I have time."

"Call me sister next time we meet!" After saying that, Hua Honeysuckle waved at him and slammed the door shut.

Outside the house Mo sighed, then got on his bike and left.

Hua Rendong came back this time just to see if the couple had been captured. Since they had been captured and the opium had been searched, the purpose of this trip was accomplished. Hua Rendong wiped the dust off the surface of the house and went out.

Sui Yong took her around the city, even to the black market. Hua Rendong didn't understand why he did that. Later, she remembered that she had asked the big bearded man if she could trade some things when she was free. It was probably because the big bearded man was afraid that she would go to the wrong place, so he asked Sui Yong to help.

From this perspective, the bearded man isn't that unreliable.

Since the road has been paved for her and she has nothing to do today, she might as well go to the black market first.

Who would have thought that the black market in Xinshi would be built in an alley not far from the city government? When Hua Rendong came over, there was a woman as thin as a bamboo pole sitting at the entrance of the alley.

The woman looked up and down at Honeysuckle, who had changed into men's clothes and covered his head tightly with a straw hat. "What do you do?"

Hua Rendong pointed at the bag in her hand and said in a low voice, "Looking for the third brother."

The third brother is the boss of the black market. He used his true identity when Sui Yong brought her here last time. The third brother was very polite to the two of them and promised to try his best to leave the good things for them.

But this time, Hua Rendong wanted to ship a large amount of goods. Even with Sui Yong's relationship, she didn't want to reveal her identity.

Although the woman had never seen Honeysuckle before, it was obvious that she was introduced by an acquaintance. She nodded at her and said, "Come with me."

Honeysuckle followed the woman through the long alley and finally stopped in front of the dilapidated gate.

It's quiet outside the door, but inside is another world.

The two courtyards in front and back are more than 100 square meters in size and are packed with people, even the front rooms are full of people.

But unlike outside where people just put things on the ground, the things in the house are either placed on the table or on the kang. At first glance, these are rare and scarce items even in a department store.

Despite the large crowds, it was quiet inside and outside the house. When someone saw an item they liked, they would quietly bargain with the stall owner.

The woman brought the honeysuckle to the yard and handed it to a young man named Liuzi. She whispered a few words in his ear and went out to keep watch.

Liuzi glanced at Hua Jindong and said, "Follow me!"

After saying that, without waiting for Hua Honeysuckle to respond, he turned and walked towards the corner door of the backyard.

Hua Rendong hurriedly followed and turned the corner door only to discover that behind the two courtyards, there was actually another smaller courtyard.

The black market was not open when she came last time, and the third brother only received her and Sui Yong in the front yard. She didn't know that the yard was so big.

Having such a big yard shows that this third brother is no ordinary person.
