Zhang Zian felt very awkward after he was seen by Sheng Ke. He seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Wasn’t coming here at that time causing trouble to the police uncles?
He wanted to comfort Electrician Wu and take his leave, but right at that moment, he heard a crying voice,
Grandpa! We’re here!

Electrician Wu’s grandson and other family members pushed the crowd aside and rushed over, crying as they hugged Electrician Wu.
He was relieved after he saw that his family members were all safe; he was almost scared to death.
From his family members, Electrician Wu learned that, just a few hours ago, the police suddenly knocked on their door and ordered the whole family to leave the house and go downstairs. They didn’t even have the time to take their valuables, such as bank books and jewelry.
It was not only their home, but the neighbors next door and the neighbors of the upper and lower floors were also all squeezed into the corridor and forcefully sent downstairs. Everyone did not understand what was happening; they all thought that it was an earthquake.
Once they made it downstairs, they were dumbfounded when they saw the rows of police cars and ambulances. It was something only seen in Hollywood blockbusters.
Immediately afterward, someone was carried downstairs on a stretcher, and the medical staffs who was carrying the stretcher all wore gas masks. Even the person on the stretcher wore an oxygen mask; his face was blue and he kept trying to rip the shirt off his chest. He seemed to have difficulty breathing.
One of those that was carried downstairs was Welder Zhao.
Welder Zhao’s family was all right; nothing had happened even after a series of inspection––only Welder Zhao himself was sent on the ambulance.
The ambulance rushed to the emergency center at its fastest speed.
Later, more and more police officers came to the scene, and even the scary looking Biochemical Specialist Police Unit arrived at the scene and swarmed into the block beside.
Electrician Wu felt fortunate that his family members were all safe. At the same time, he was very worried about the safety of Welder Zhao. He traced the fingers of his little grandson, and the unit beside them was the unit where Carpenter Wang lived. Of course, there are many other households in this block, not just Carpenter Wang.
Electrician Wu frowned.
The night before, Carpenter Wang had plans to restart the ecosystem in his aquarium tank and to remove the fish that he was not fond of. Being cheap, Welder Zhao had wanted to get several fish from Carpenter Wang––those that Carpenter Wang had eliminated out from his tank––so he had run over to watch Carpenter Wang restart his tank and invited Electrician Wu to come along.
Electrician Wu was not so thick skinned. He had his own retirement money. So if he wanted any fish, he would buy them himself. He didn’t want to do anything like picking up rubbish, and it was better to sit on the sofa and watch some anti-Japanese drama. So, he turned down Welder Zhao’s invitation.
Welder Zhao went there himself and spent an hour or two at Carpenter Wang’s home before returning. He got a few good fish, just as he had hoped for, then he took some pictures and sent them to Electrician Wu to flaunt his harvest.
Electrician Wu ignored him and went to bed.
At that time, everything was still all right; there were no abnormalities and no signs of anything.
Early the next morning, Electrician Wu got up and went for his early morning exercise.
Welder Zhao did not have the habit of going for morning exercises, so Electrician Wu took it that he was still asleep.
After Electrician Wu’s morning exercise, he returned with some groceries, only to see that the housing facility had been turned upside down.
Looking at the Biochemical Specialist Police Unit going in and out of the block, Electrician Wu started wondering: Could it be that the matter is related to Carpenter Wang? Otherwise, it’s too much of a coincidence, right?
Impossible!
Definitely impossible!
Electrician Wu shook his head and denied his own thoughts.
Although he was not familiar with Carpenter Wang, Carpenter Wang was just a common person that one could find anywhere, and he had lived most of his life ordinarily. How could he be involved in such a big thing…? Electrician Wu refused to believe so!

Master Wu, are you okay?

Electrician Wu was lost in his own thoughts when he heard someone calling out to him from behind.

Aiya, Xiao Zhang? Why are you here?

Electrician Wu was really surprised to see Zhang Zian. After a momentary blank, he introduced Zian to his family members before pulling him to the side.
Zhang Zian could only explain,
Didn’t Master Zhao reserve a few fishes in my store and have yet to pay for it? There are other customers who want to buy those fish, but I can’t seem to contact him. Since I had business around the neighborhood, I decided to visit him on the way and ask about the fish… Who knew I would run into such a big thing.


Cough!
Electrician Wu sighed.
Zhao… I think you can just forget about it and sell those fish to someone else. Even if Zhao is able to survive this incident, I don’t think he’ll have time to care about those few fish anymore…


What? Something really happened to Master Zhao?

Zhang Zian’s speculation was affirmed––he had guessed so when he saw Welder Zhao’s grandson crying.

Yes!

Electrician Wu told Zhang Zian everything that he had heard from his family members. He told Zian that Welder Zhao was sent to the hospital by an ambulance, and his current situation was unknown.
Zhang Zian was deeply affected by the news. The cheap Welder Zhao, who had a loud and clear voice… It seemed like it was only yesterday that he was bargaining loudly in his shop, and now, in the blink of an eye, he was lying in the hospital. How things change!

Xiao Zhang, that… I have an immature thought, can you listen to it?
Electrician Wu asked nervously.

What is it? Please go ahead.

Electrician Wu had pulled Zhang Zian aside just to tell him about his own guess. The guess was really unbelievable, so he was afraid that he’d be laughed at by the others when they heard about it.
Although Electrician Wu had been denying the possibility in his heart. He constantly felt flustered and wanted to find someone to share it with––compared to his family members, Zhang Zian was obviously more suitable.
Electrician Wu let out a few coughs.
Xiao Zhang, I’m just guessing and you can treat it as an old man’s nonsense… Don’t laugh at me… So it’s like this…

Electrician Wu talked about Welder Zhao going to Carpenter Wang’s house to watch him restart his tank, and then added in his own doubts—was there a possible connection between the two matters?
After he listened to what Electrician Wu said, Zhang Zian was quiet for a moment.

What about it? I might’ve thought too much, right?
Electrician Wu carefully observed Zian’s facial expressions.
Zhang Zian slowly shook his head.
I’m not too sure at the moment, but we can’t eliminate it as a possibility…

Zian also thought of something, but currently, the information was too little and the matter was very serious. Any misjudgment on his part would easily cause irreversible damage to the life and property of others, so he could only be extra cautious.
Aside from that, even if he had some suspicions, his words had no weight to them, so there was nothing he could do.

Is that so? Do you think so, too?

No matter what, Electrician Wu was already very happy that Zhang Zian had listened to him and was thinking seriously about what he had said.

Shop Manager Zhang, what a coincidence! It’s really a small world!
Zhang Zian’s thoughts were interrupted. He raised his head and saw Sheng Ke standing right in front of him.
