Siheyuan: From the Start, I Hunted Enemy Spies, Leaving the Whole Courtyard Stunned

[Period Setting + Agent + Military Technology + Siheyuan + Decisive and Ruthless + One Heroine/No Romance]

Lin Xiao is reborn in the bitter winter of 1952, with a [Stasis Military Workshop] at his disposal.

From the start, he faces hell mode: he’s on the northeastern border with top-secret blueprints in hand, while a squad of heavily armed enemy agents closes in behind him!

Using his pocket space, he crafts traps and ice bullets, then turns the snowy forest into a textbook example of one man and one gun wiping out the enemy!

After the mission, the organization arranges for him to hide his identity by posing as an orphaned son of a fallen hero and moving into No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. His health is failing from overexertion.

And his guardian turns out to be Yi Zhonghai, before he ever became a bad guy?

[Inside the Siheyuan]

Yi Zhonghai sees how pale Lin Xiao is, his eyes turning red. “Child, as long as I have a bite to eat, you won’t go hungry! Anyone who dares bully you will have to go through me!”

Jia Zhangshi throws a fit. “Yi, why did you bring home a sickly kid? He can’t even have children, and now he’ll waste our food!”

Xu Damao sneers. “Lin Xiao is useless. He’s out of breath after walking a few steps!”

[Outside the Siheyuan]

While the courtyard’s schemers are still squabbling over a few pounds of cornmeal, Lin Xiao has already entered the workshop in his pocket space.

He repairs top-tier machine tools, designs new firearms, and tackles the challenges of special-grade steel…

Late at night, a mysterious red-flag sedan pulls up at the mouth of the alley and takes this “sickly kid” away to teach the leaders!

Then, one day, a great industrial achievement is unveiled, and the whole nation rejoices.

Yi Zhonghai watches the figure being honored atop the city gate tower. His pipe drops to the ground in shock.

“Th-that’s Lin Xiao, the kid who couldn’t even carry a coal briquette at my place??”
