Chapter 65: Returning Home (Seeking Collections! Seeking Recommendations!)

  The Yang surname is a big surname in Yonghe County, and Yangjia Village is a big village in Yonghe Township.

  Before the founding of the country, Yangjia Village was famous in Huanghe Township for its villagers' bravery and unity, and even bandits and local tyrants did not dare to enter the village.

  After the founding of the country, in order to compete for water sources, villages that dared to cause trouble in Yangjia Village were not unheard of, but none succeeded.

  Even during the decade of catastrophe, because many young men from Yangjia Village joined the army, the Red Guards did not dare to enter the village to arrest people, thus establishing Yangjia Village's prestige in Xianghe Township.

  Yuehe Township has convenient transportation, with roads connecting to all directions. Villagers from nearby villages within a radius of ten miles dare not bully people from Yangjia Village. For many years, Yangjia Village has never had any criminal cases, not even minor ones like theft.

  Who would have thought that either nothing would happen or something big would happen, Wang Guixi was actually killed at the edge of the village.

  Wang Guixi, as the son-in-law of Yangjiacun Village, worked diligently in the winery for many years. He was a kind and affable person who never offended anyone. At least, Yang Jie couldn't think of anyone who would want to kill him, especially not on that short path between the winery and Yangjiacun Village.

  Yang Xinhua's legs and feet are inconvenient, coupled with his military background, he dislikes welcoming guests, so except for the production and operation of the winery, all the external affairs of the winery are handed over to Wang Guixi. It can be said that Wang Xigui is Yang Xinhua's indispensable helper.

  Now that Wang Xigui has gotten into trouble, it's easy to imagine the impact on the winery. Yang Xinhua's son Yang Jie stood up and said to Gu Jian and Chen Yinglong: "Two brothers, something big has happened at the winery, let's reschedule our lunch for another day!"

  "I need to rush back to Huarong Township now. Has the criminal police team set off? Can I take their car back?"

  Gu Jian nodded, Yuhe Winery was contracted and operated by Yang Jie's father. A murder case occurred at the winery, he was anxious to rush back, which was also reasonable. Moreover, there is a long time ahead, and it's not necessary to hurry with emotional connection.

  "Eating can wait, the criminal police team has already set out half an hour ago. Director Yang still needs to go to the county to report on his work this afternoon, so he won't be able to arrive at Yunhe Township until later." Gu Jian said, taking a set of car keys from the drawer and handing them to Yang Jie.

  "The traffic police squadron's vehicles are mostly confiscated smuggled cars, some of which are in good condition and have been kept for personal use. This bluebird car has a civilian license plate, little brother wants to use the car, just drive it back, there are many cars parked in the squadron, I don't need a car." Gu Jian said, picking up the police hat on the table, and accompanied Yang Jie out of the office with Chen Yinglong.

  The traffic police brigade has a large number of police vehicles, some of which are confiscated from smugglers. Except for a portion that is auctioned off and sold to outsiders, the rest will be retained for internal use by the county bureau.

  The ancient sword's ride is a Nissan Bluebird with civilian license plates, looking very high-end, far surpassing Chen Yinglong's Jetta.

  At that time, the Bluebird car was absolutely a high-end car in Yunhe County. The county secretary and magistrate's vehicle was only a Santana, although Santana wasn't cheap at that time either, but compared to the imported Bluebird, it was still much inferior. That's why Gu Jian didn't dare put a police plate on the Bluebird, lest he provoke gossip.

  Yang Jie followed Gu Jian to the black Bluebird car parked in the parking lot, looked at the car, and saw that the paint was newly done, shining brightly under the sun. The windows had explosion-proof film on them, and from the outside looking in, it was a bit hard to see clearly due to the sunlight.

  The car was in excellent condition and had an automatic transmission, a type of vehicle that Yang Jie had never driven before.

  Open the car lock with a remote control. Gu Jian saw Yang Jie looking somewhat at a loss, knowing that Yang Jie might not have driven an automatic transmission car before, and didn't point it out. He walked forward and said: "This car is a confiscated vehicle from the traffic police department this year. Because of its good condition, it wasn't auctioned off to the public, but was kept for internal use."

  I believe Yang also knows that for automatic gearboxes, you need to press the brake pedal to start the car. When shifting gears, P is parking gear, R is reverse gear, N is neutral gear, and D is drive gear. The rest are similar to manual transmissions, nothing special."

  Yang Jie saw the ancient sword sit in the car, fiddle with the gear and air conditioning, demonstrate to him after, then smiled and hit the sunshade on the car, "There are a dozen or so gas tickets stuck behind this, take the ticket can be refueled at various gas stations in the county.

  "You drive the car for now, I have a police car in the squadron. When you're done with your family matters and don't need it anymore, just send it over to me."

  "Thank you, Big Brother Gu! I have to hurry back to Yanhe County, so I won't keep the two of you company. When I return to Yanhe County, I'll invite the two of you for a drink." After Yang Jie saw Gu Jian walk down from the car, he thanked him sincerely and nodded at Chen Yinglong beside him before getting on the car.

  Following the ancient sword's teachings, he stepped on the brake, inserted the car key into the ignition, started the engine, shifted into D gear, rolled down the window, waved at the two people standing beside the car, then released the handbrake and slowly drove out of the traffic police station.

  Yang Jie, who was driving an automatic car for the first time, wouldn't have even known how to start the engine if Gu Jian hadn't explained it to him just now. Fortunately, once the car started moving, everything else would be fine.

  After running on the road for a while, Yang Jie gradually became familiar with the performance of the car and felt that automatic gear was really more convenient than manual gear. When stopping, there was no need to step on the clutch, nor worry about the car stalling, just stepping on the brake would do. Moreover, this car accelerated quickly, as soon as it was given gas, the speed came up.

  As soon as the air conditioner was turned on, the inside of the car became refreshingly cool. The scorching sun near noon had heated up the entire county of Yuhang to an extremely hot temperature. Pedestrians walking along the road were mostly holding umbrellas for shade, while Yang Jie sitting in the car compared to them, undoubtedly looked extremely happy.

  Driving through the city, at the toll station on the south exit, Yang Jie was about to open the window to pay the toll, but when his car approached, the toll gate automatically opened. He thought that since this was Gu Jian's car, the toll station must be very familiar with his license plate number, so not charging him was within reason.

  After leaving the city, thinking about Wang Guixi's affairs, Yang Jie drove the car at a breakneck speed.

  Yuehe County is only twenty kilometers away from Yuehe Township, and the two places are connected by national highways with very good road conditions. The Blue Bird car was also in good condition, so after more than ten minutes, the car arrived at Yuehe Township.

  Yang Jie, although he grew up in Fuxin Tungsten Mine since childhood, is not unfamiliar with the town of Huohe. He drove his car through the streets of Huohe and arrived at the entrance to Yangjia Village. Just as he was about to drive into the village, he saw that more than a dozen young men from Yangjia Village had blocked the road.

  The village road is a gravel road, originally the village road was not wide, only enough for one tractor to enter and exit. With the improvement of the winery's efficiency, Yang Xinhua invested in widening this road by more than double, currently two trucks can drive side by side, it is considered the best road among all villages in Yonghe Township.

  The road was blocked by two long logs lying across it, and vehicles couldn't get through. Yang Jie drove the car into the village path, opened the window, looked at a dozen or so young people filled with righteous indignation in front of him, frowned and said to one of them who seemed to be the leader, "Yang Bing, why did you guys block the road?"

  Yang Jie is of high seniority in Yangjia Village, and as the only son of Yang Xinhua, he is also the first university student in Yangjia Village. It can be said that his status in the village is not lower than that of the elderly people. When Yang Bing and others saw that Yang Jie had arrived by car, they hurried forward.

  "Uncle Jie, something big has happened in the village. Guixi's husband was killed on the small path at the front of the village. Juan's sister has fainted several times from crying. The criminal police team asked us to block off all the roads around here and not let any strangers come or go, so we've blocked off the road into the village." Yang Bing hastily came forward and said with a nervous smile when she saw it was Yang Jie.

  Yang Jie furrowed his brow slightly upon hearing this. If the murderer was an outsider, they would have fled long ago, so what's the point of sealing off the village?

  If it's someone from our village who committed the crime, then unless they're stupid, they wouldn't venture out at this time and arouse police suspicion. Besides, only the main road is blocked, but there are countless small paths between the fields, how could they possibly be sealed off?

  "It's not going to work if it's blocked like this, besides, there are so many fields in front of Yangjia Village, do they have to take the main road to enter and exit? Hurry up and remove these, lest it affects the entry and exit." Yang Jie said to Yang Bing who came forward, he hastily turned around and waved his hand, letting the people behind him remove the tree trunks blocking the road.

  "Uncle Jie, hurry back! We still have to guard here!" Yang Bing nodded at Yang Jie after the log was removed, and then loudly told the young people in the village to keep their eyes open and not miss the small paths between the fields on both sides of the road.

  Without saying goodbye to Yang Bing and others, Yang Jie drove all the way forward and soon arrived at the winery at the foot of the mountain.
