On the way back, they didn’t say much. Yang Jia got home first, followed by Gu Pan and Fang Lanlan walking side by side in relative silence.
Once home, Lu Ruisheng looked at Gu Pan, puzzled, “Why are you in a bad mood?”
Gu Pan nodded, “I ran into Song Xiner, and in our conversation, too many sad memories came to light.”
Lu Ruisheng stroked Gu Pan’s hair, “Do you want something to drink?” He didn’t like to give direct advice; at times like this, it was better to change the mood.
Gu Pan nodded and took out two cups of coffee from Space “Have this.”
Lu Ruisheng didn’t object; they sat on the sofa together, not speaking, just quietly keeping each other company.
The next day, they went back to the base to trade. This time, they traded for a hundred pounds of gold, making the Space grow to 26,220 square feet.
The transaction took place at the same location with the same person as last time, who was still wearing a helmet.
But they weren’t curious about that; it made sense for someone in this line of work to hide their face.
After parting with the second-hand dealer, they went to the mountains again. This time, the trap caught another rabbit; last time it was a doe, and this time it seemed to be a buck. If they weren’t mistaken, these two rabbits might even breed.
However, that was the only game they caught, so Gu Pan continued by taking some meat out of Space to pretend they had hunted it.
They didn’t bring out the wild boar this time because it hadn’t been long since the last; they decided to wait a bit longer before doing so.
They dug up some earth in a cave and placed it in Space, along with some dry grass and the like. Now that they had more space, they put everything inside, including a good amount of dead wood collected by Gu Pan—who knew if it might come in handy later for heating or something else.
They kept busy outside until past nine in the evening before returning home. Since it was daylight, going back later didn’t matter.
After returning, they first brought the rabbit home, had dinner, took baths, and then both went to bed.
The following day, they took the rabbit to the trade center, exchanged it for contribution points, and went home.
As soon as they got home, they saw Yang Jia crying and squatting at the front door.
Gu Pan hurried over.
When Yang Jia saw Gu Pan, she hugged her and started crying, “Panpan, I’ve caused trouble.”
Gu Pan pulled her into the yard, “What happened? Don’t cry, tell me what’s going on first.”
Yang Jia wiped away tears, “This morning, Chen Fengzhou went to submit his work, and I felt a bit dizzy so I didn’t go. Soon after, someone knocked on the door. I thought Fengzhou had forgotten his keys, so I opened the door. But it was Wang Yan from room 405. After entering, he locked the door from the inside, and then he tried to… to… assault me. I grabbed a canned bottle and hit him on the head with it. Then he fell down, bleeding a lot. I didn’t know what to do, so I came to find you. I haven’t committed murder, have I?”
Gu Pan looked at Lu Ruisheng, “What do we do?” In this area, Lu Ruisheng had more authority.
Lu Ruisheng said, “First we should go and see. If he didn’t hurt the back of his head when he fell, the chances of him dying aren’t high. We’ll take him to the hospital and try to settle it privately.”
Gu Pan told Yang Jia, “Let’s hurry back; if Chen Fengzhou gets home first, things could get complicated.”
Yang Jia nodded quickly, “I was in shock just now. Let’s hurry back.”
Lu Ruisheng drove, taking them hastily back home.
Fortunately, Chen Fengzhou hadn’t returned yet, and the three of them entered the room.
Wang Yan was still lying on the floor, the bleeding had stopped. Hearing their voices, he slowly opened his eyes and pointed at the Yang Family, “She, she committed murder.”
Lu Ruisheng picked up a towel and pressed it to Wang Yan’s head, “Don’t talk, I’m taking you to the hospital.”
Gu Pan, worried about others seeing and causing trouble, had Yang Jia find a blanket, which covered Wang Yan’s entire head.
Lu Ruisheng carried Wang Yan downstairs, then placed him in the car, and they went to the hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Feng Zhekai was in the emergency room. Seeing familiar faces, he rushed over. Noticing Wang Yan and Yang Jia had also arrived, he guessed something. He had lived in the apartment block before and knew that the mother and son in 405 were no good. He also knew Wang Yan had inappropriate intentions towards Yang Jia but thought there wouldn’t be any danger since the Yang Family lived with Chen Fengzhou. He hadn’t expected this kid’s thieving heart to persist.
He hurriedly went up to treat him. Being the chief physician, it would be easier to cover for his own people if anything came up.
After the examination, Feng Zhekai said, “It’s nothing serious, just needs to be bandaged up.”
Wang Yan, grimacing in pain, protested, “But I was knocked out, there can’t be any aftereffects, right?”
Feng Zhekai replied, “It seems fine for now; we’ll have to keep an eye on it.”
Wang Yan said, “You all know each other, you won’t deceive me, right?”
Feng Zhekai answered, “First and foremost, I am a doctor, please do not insult my profession.”
This response rendered Wang Yan speechless, and considering his pain, fear, and significant blood loss, he really had no strength left and let Feng Zhekai and the nurse bandage him up.
After bandaging, they went to the observation room.
Gu Pan and the others were relieved that Zhang Ping wasn’t home. Otherwise, it would have caused an uproar. Although they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage, it would indeed bring a lot of trouble.
Lying in the hospital bed, Wang Yan said to Yang Jia, “You beat me up like this; you better go and bring my mom back. What if I suffer aftereffects?”
Gu Pan didn’t wait for Yang Jia to respond and directly spoke to Wang Yan, “Let’s talk.” Since there was no evidence, causing a scene at the police station might not turn out in their favor, so it was necessary first to get some evidence.
Wang Yan looked at Gu Pan, Lu Ruisheng, and Feng Zhekai, all on Yang Jia’s side, so he didn’t want to talk with them. He wanted to find his mom, who he believed could handle these people.
So he was very adamant, “My head is really hurting, I want to see my mom. If you don’t find her for me, I will call the police.”
Lu Ruisheng said, “What will you report to the police? That you tried to molest someone and were knocked out in self-defense?”
Wang Yan glared at Lu Ruisheng, tilting his head, “When did I molest anyone? I just went to borrow something from Yang Jia, and she knocked me out.”
This was as Gu Pan had anticipated; he wouldn’t admit it, which indeed made it hard to obtain evidence.
So Gu Pan turned on the recorder in her pocket and began the trap, “Yang Jia has surveillance in her home. You can go ahead and report to the police. We’re only considering neighborly relations and don’t want to see you end up in jail with a criminal record. But if you refuse, we’ll oblige.”
Wang Yan grew fearful, “You, surveillance? Impossible, with such an energy shortage, why would you set up surveillance in your home? You’re bluffing.”
Gu Pan smiled and pulled out a camera from her pocket, “We’ve got plenty of these devices. Even the charging ones don’t use much electricity. This was to prevent you. We’ve seen right through you for some time; you’ve harassed Yang Jia several times before, have you forgotten?”
Just now, Yang Jia was still scared. After all, their home had no surveillance; it was just Gu Pan scaring Wang Yan. She was truly afraid Wang Yan wouldn’t fall for it, and then the situation would become complicated. But to her surprise, Gu Pan had been prepared. Wait a minute, after everything happened, Gu Pan hadn’t gone back to her room, so it must have been in her car. Gu Pan was genuinely a resourceful and cunning person—a true protagonist of a feel-good story.
