My happy life in a courtyard house with triplets.

Chapter 180: Visiting He Yuzhu

After breakfast, Zhang Lei took He Yushui straight to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, they saw Sha Zhu lying on the bed, looking haggard and utterly dejected.

At this moment, Sha Zhu saw Zhang Lei arrive and immediately tried to sit up.

Zhang Lei quickly stopped him, saying, "Shazhu, don't be so stubborn."

Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, Sha Zhu didn't get up. He simply lay back down and coldly said, "Did you come here to laugh at me?"

Hearing Sha Zhu say that, Zhang Lei couldn't help but say, "Calling you Sha Zhu, you really are incredibly stupid. Would I, Zhang Lei, have come all the way to the hospital just to see you make a fool of yourself?"

Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, Sha Zhu angrily retorted, "Then what are you doing here?"

Zhang Lei looked at him and said bluntly, "If Yu Shui hadn't come to me for help, do you think I would have bothered with your foul temper?"

Sha Zhu looked at Zhang Lei and said angrily, "My affairs are none of your business. You can leave now!"

Seeing Sha Zhu's state, Zhang Lei calmly said, "Sha Zhu, don't you really want to know who beat you up like this?"

Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, Sha Zhu immediately perked up and eagerly asked, "You know?"

Zhang Lei shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I can help you analyze it."

Hearing Zhang Lei say this, Sha Zhu's newly kindled hope was extinguished again, and he said irritably, "You're not even a policeman, how can you help me arrest people? Forget it."

Seeing Sha Zhu's nonchalant attitude, Zhang Lei sneered and said, "Fine then, since you don't want to know who beat you up like this, then you can keep taking it. Anyway, you're crippled, which is just a good thing for others."

Hearing Zhang Lei's words, Sha Zhu became furious, his face turning bright red. He said, "Zhang Lei, you still say you weren't here to mock me?"

Zhang Lei looked at Sha Zhu calmly and said, "Okay, don't get agitated. Think about it carefully. Have you offended anyone recently? Who would want you to end up like this?"

Sha Zhu frowned and began to try hard to recall, muttering, "Liu Lan... Li Huaide... Liu Haizhong..." He said more than a dozen names in one breath.

Zhang Lei was so angry he almost turned black, thinking to himself that this silly Zhu really had offended quite a few people.

Finally, Sha Zhu muttered again, "And Xu Damao too."

Upon hearing the name "Xu Damao," Zhang Lei's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately prompted, "Think about it, out of all these people, who hates you the most? Why does that person specifically kick your groin instead of other places? What benefit does that bring them?"

When Zhang Lei mentioned "kicking the groin," Sha Zhu suddenly slapped his forehead, a thought flashing into his mind: "Xu Damao!"

Zhang Lei continued to guide the conversation: "Why Xu Damao? Is Xu Damao trying to get revenge by kicking you in the groin, or what?"

Sha Zhu suddenly seemed to have become smarter. His eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Xu Damao! From childhood to adulthood, I've always beaten him, and I often kicked him in the groin. He's always held a grudge! It must be him! He wants to make me childless!"

Hearing Sha Zhu say this, Zhang Lei pretended to suddenly realize something and said, "You often kick Xu Damao in the groin?"

Sha Zhu nodded.

Zhang Lei simply said, "No wonder."

"Huh?" Sha Zhu asked in confusion, "No wonder what?"

Zhang Lei said, "No wonder Xu Damao wanted to take revenge on you and had someone kick you in the groin. It's probably because you used to kick him there all the time when you were a kid, and you damaged his genitals."

Sha Zhu asked doubtfully, "How can that part be damaged by kicking?"

Zhang Lei said speechlessly, "If you hadn't been kicked in that area, how did you end up like this?"

Immediately, Sha Zhu was speechless, then roared angrily, "Xu Damao, you son of a bitch! You dare to play dirty tricks on me?"

Zhang Lei said speechlessly, "Xu Damao won't play dirty tricks with you; he has to be able to beat you first."

At this moment, Sha Zhu exclaimed excitedly, "No, I have to make Xu Damao pay the price!"

Zhang Lei quickly held him down, saying, "Don't be impulsive!"

Sha Zhu struggled to say, "Now that I know it's that bastard Xu Damao, how can I not be excited?"

Zhang Lei asked directly, "Do you have any evidence?"

Sha Zhu was taken aback: "I said evidence? What evidence do we need? Who else could it be but him?"

Zhang Lei said speechlessly, "Police investigations also require evidence. How can you conclude that Xu Damao is guilty based on your mere words? Besides, Xu Damao wasn't even personally involved."

Sha Zhu retorted directly, "That's because he paid people to hire him!"

Then Zhang Lei repeated his question: "Where's the evidence? You say he hired someone, but who can prove it?"

Sha Zhu said angrily, "So you're telling me I can't handle Xu Damao?"

Zhang Lei looked at Sha Zhu and said calmly, "We only have suspicions now; we don't have direct evidence to prove that Xu Damao did it. Police investigations always require evidence. No matter how vehemently you speak, no one will believe you, and besides, Xu Damao won't admit it."

Sha Zhu looked at Zhang Lei and said anxiously, "What should we do?"

Zhang Lei thought for a moment and said, "If it were me, I would have two options. First, regardless of whether it was him or not, I would retaliate in kind. Second, I would try to get information out of someone."

Upon hearing Zhang Lei's two proposals, Sha Zhu asked in confusion, "How do I get information out of them?"

Zhang Lei said, "They'd find someone to invite him to dinner and get him drunk. People are very arrogant when they're drunk, and they'll definitely blurt out some things they've done. Of course, this is just a possibility; we'll have to see what happens next."

Hearing Zhang Lei say that, Sha Zhu felt a bit troubled. He scratched his head and said, "Then I'll choose to retaliate in kind and just beat him up to vent my anger!"

Looking at his reckless appearance, Zhang Lei shook his head helplessly and said, "If you can't do the second method yourself, you can ask someone to help you."

Sha Zhu's eyes lit up: "Get someone to help me? Who would be willing to do this kind of thing for me?"

Zhang Lei's lips curled into a meaningful smile as he said, "You don't understand, do you? Our compound is full of hidden talents. Think about it, Xu Damao is usually incredibly arrogant in the compound. Besides you, who else dislikes him?"

Sha Zhu thought for a moment and said, "There are many, like Grandpa One, Grandpa Two..."

Hearing Sha Zhu say this, Zhang Lei continued to coax him, "If you need help, go find Uncle Yi. Uncle Yi values ​​you so much, I believe that as long as you tell him this plan, he will definitely be able to find a way to get information out of Xu Damao. Then, you can use this as leverage to threaten Xu Damao or put him in jail, it's all up to you."

Upon hearing Zhang Lei's words, Sha Zhu immediately beamed with joy, as if he could see Xu Damao being arrested, and instantly felt no pain down there anymore.

Sha Zhu looked at Zhang Lei, and the gloom in his heart vanished, replaced by a sense of joy.
