When Lu Yan drove into the village, it was almost 9:00 p.m., and at this time, most of the villagers in Houling Village had already fallen asleep.

The sound of the police car woke up the dog in the village, and the barking of the dog woke up the sleeping villagers. Everyone was dazed and didn't know what happened in the village.

Then they heard the sound of "clang, clang, clang..." of a copper gong.

The quick sound of the copper gong made the curious villagers unable to lie down. Everyone didn't delay, and quickly put on their clothes and ran out of their homes.

Rushed to the small square for gatherings.

The winter in the north is very cold, and it is even colder in the middle of the night, so cold that white steam comes out of your breath. In such a cold day, even if everyone was willing to crawl out of the warm quilt, they would still complain a few words.

When they met acquaintances on the road, the villagers put their hands in their pockets, greeted each other, and then gathered in groups of three or five, asking each other questions in confusion.

"Why don't you let me sleep in the middle of the night? What does Lu Youcai want to do?"

"Who knows?"

"I woke up early and seemed to hear the sound of a car. But can cars come to our poor place?"

"Really?"

"I live in a remote place and sleep soundly. I was woken up by the sound of the gong. I don't know anything else."

"Really. I don't know where Wang Dabao went today. He hasn't come home yet. Widow Chen is so anxious at home to find him."

"That woman doesn't sleep herself, and she makes us neighbors unable to sleep. , it's really annoying."

"That's right, not sleeping at night is simply a disease."

"Why hasn't Wang Dabao gone home yet? Where did he go?"

"Who knows? He might have gone somewhere to bully others and take advantage of others. He doesn't learn to be a good person every day. My son Shuanzi has no mind to work because of him."

"Who can make a living by making revolution every day? Wang Dabao is sick. He relies on his good family background and good brains to do nothing every day. He only thinks about sinister things and will get retribution sooner or later."

As people talked, it became a □□ meeting against Wang Dabao. After everyone talked for a long time, they realized that no one knew what happened.

At that moment, the villagers of Houling Village panicked.

Houling Village was established less than 40 years ago, and in the past 30 years, there have been only five times when the gong was struck at night. Each time, it was a major event that could change the life of the village.

I don't know why Lu Youcai struck the gong today?

Is there something bad happening again?

Everyone ran to the small square anxiously, fearing that they would be late and miss some important news.

When they arrived at the place, they saw Zhou Yanping next to Lu Youcai and the police uniform on Zhou Yanping with the help of the flashlight. The villagers were even more frightened, and all the sleepy bugs ran away in an instant.

What's going on?

How could there be a policeman in their village?

Whose family is in trouble? Will they be implicated?
