Rebirth 1979: Hunting wild boars and saving educated youth

In the police station.

The police officer on duty saw such a large group of villagers coming and quickly jumped up from his stool, walked over to them, and asked, "What's going on? This is quite a big scene."

The village chief walked forward with a leadership stride and briefly explained the whole story to the young policeman.

When the young policeman heard that this matter had alarmed the village chief and that all the villagers were responsible for catching the thief, he did not dare to be negligent. He immediately ordered his men to take Chen Feng to the interrogation room and arranged for the village chief and other villagers to rest in the reception room.

The reception room had limited space, so villagers who couldn't sit down simply waited outside the police station building.

No one went back early. Everyone's face was full of anticipation, afraid of missing out on the things to be distributed.

Chen Feng was taken by two policemen through the corridor and into the interrogation room.

Once the door was closed, the light became a little dazzling. He sat down with a calm look in his eyes, not seeming nervous at all.

The police began routine questioning, recording every word Chen Feng said.

At the same time, the young policeman hurried upstairs and went straight to the instructor Zhou Guohui's office.

Zhou Guohui was talking to a guest at this time, and that guest was Ning Yao.

There was a bulging sack at Ning Yao's feet, which obviously contained some large items.

"Oh, what kind of treasure is this?" Zhou Guohui was attracted by the sack at first sight and asked curiously.

Ning Yao smiled and opened a corner of the sack, revealing a large piece of tiger meat inside.

She smiled and said, "This is a rare thing in the mountains. Tiger bones can be soaked in wine to treat rheumatism. As for the tiger meat, Uncle Zhou, you can share it with everyone and let them taste it."

Zhou Guohui's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly: "This thing is really rare. Then I won't be polite and give the brothers in the institute an extra meal."

Ning Yao was delighted to see Zhou Guohui readily accept it, and then brought up the business: "Brother Zhou, why are you being so polite? You must take my request to heart."

Zhou Guohui patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, your uncle will help you with that matter. Lijia Village has good conditions. If you don't want to go there, you can be transferred to Mashan Village to teach. I will talk to Lijia Village later. It's no problem."

After hearing this, Ning Yao's face lit up with joy and he thanked him repeatedly.

She had planned to return to Lijia Village today, but carrying the heavy tiger meat, she felt tired after walking a short distance. She complained to Chen Feng why he cut such a big piece, but she couldn't help but think of Chen Feng's kindness, and felt reluctant to leave.

When she thought about leaving and not knowing when she would see him again, she gritted her teeth and went to the police station to find Zhou Guohui.

Zhou Guohui had a deep connection with the Ning Yao family. He had served in the army and had some friendship with the Ning family. Later, when he was transferred to this police station as an instructor, the Ning family even wrote to him specifically asking him to take care of Ning Yao.

Zhou Guohui knew Ning Yao's family background, so he naturally did not dare to neglect him. He specially assigned Ning Yao to Lijia Village, which had the best conditions. Unexpectedly, Ning Yao took the initiative to request to be transferred to the more remote Mashan Village.

"Okay, Mashan Village is closer to my police station, so it's convenient to take care of him."

Zhou Guohui was thinking in his mind and was about to talk to Ning Yao again to ask where Ning Yao got the tiger meat.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door and a voice saying "report".

"Come in!" Zhou Guohui responded.

The door was pushed open, and the young policeman walked in with a serious look on his face: "Instructor, there is a case down there. The villagers collectively caught a thief. Village Chief Ma came to report the case personally, saying that the evidence is conclusive. What do you think we should do?"

Zhou Guohui asked the police in detail: "Who stole the things? What exactly did they steal? Where is the evidence?"

The police reported the situation in detail.

Ning Yao was listening at the side, his face suddenly changed, and he blurted out: "Chen Feng stole something? That's absolutely impossible!"

Zhou Guohui and the police officer were stunned and looked at her with surprise in their eyes.

Ning Yao was anxious and quickly explained, "He was the one who killed the tiger meat. I was there and saw it with my own eyes. He even skinned the tiger and sold it at the market. He worked hard to earn that money. How could he have stolen it?"

When Zhou Guohui heard this, he was so scared that he almost jumped up, and his voice rose an octave.

"You were there when the tiger was being hunted? Do you know how dangerous it was?"

"This kid Chen Feng is too much of a fool! If the old commander knew about this, he would definitely punish me severely! Just because he led you to fight the tiger, it's not too much to lock him up for three years!"

Ning Yao became even more anxious when he heard this, and his voice became even louder: "How dare you! You can't do this to him!"

After she finished speaking, she noticed that Zhou Guohui looked at her with an even stranger look, and a blush appeared on her face. She quickly added, "Uncle Zhou, don't get me wrong, Chen Feng is my savior."

Zhou Guohui was even more surprised when he heard this and asked quickly, "What's going on? Tell me quickly."

Ning Yao recounted the whole story of how she encountered a blind bear, nearly lost her life, and was finally rescued by Chen Feng.

"Uncle Zhou, look, how could such a person be a thief? Someone must have framed him. Besides, his father, Chen Dali, is not a good person at all. He hangs out outside all day and beats his wife and children when he gets home. Last time, he even tried to bully me, but was stopped by Chen Feng."

When Zhou Guohui heard that Chen Dali wanted to bully Ning Yao, he was furious. He put his hat on his head and said viciously: "Okay, I understand. I'll go down and take a look now."

After saying that, he turned around and walked downstairs.

Ning Yao followed closely behind, feeling very nervous, fearing that Chen Feng would be wronged.

When Zhou Guohui arrived at the interrogation room, he saw Chen Feng sitting there as soon as he entered. He looked calm, but there was a determination in his eyes.

"Chen Feng, I'm instructor Zhou Guohui." Zhou Guohui spoke in a huffing voice. "Tell me, what's going on?"

Chen Feng looked at the rough middle-aged man in front of him and wondered why this instructor was so angry.

But he still repeated what he had said to the young policeman before.

As Zhou Guohui listened, his brows gradually relaxed, and what he said was basically consistent with what Ning Yao said.

He nodded and said to Chen Feng, "Okay, I understand. You sit here for a while, and I'll let you go later."

After saying that, Zhou Guohui turned and left the interrogation room, leaving Chen Feng and the two interrogating police officers bewildered. Is this the end?

Zhou Guohui went directly to the reception room. As soon as he entered, he saw Village Chief Ma and Deputy Director Wang chatting animatedly. There were two young men standing beside them, nodding and bowing.

Deputy Director Wang immediately stood up and greeted Zhou Guohui upon seeing him. "Instructor, you're here! This is Ma, the village chief of Mashan Village. The villagers caught a thief with thirty yuan of unknown origin and also stole the collective matsutake mushrooms. I think this matter needs to be handled properly and set an example..."

Deputy Director Wang was interrupted by Zhou Guohui before he could finish his words: "It's OK to set up a model, but it's not Chen Feng. It's his father Chen Dali, and Li Ergou and Zhang Mazi from Mashan Village."
