12. Scams
...... At night, Zhou Xiaobai, who returned from the hospital, walked on a small road.
An old man, who had just withdrawn 50,000 yuan in cash from the bank's ATM, was also walking on that dark path.
Although there were dotted street lights on the road, he still held the money in his hand firmly in front of his "brother", and he wanted to get out of this road as soon as possible.
Under the streetlight, around the corner, a young woman met him, and behind him a middle-aged man rode an electric car around the corner.
When the middle-aged man turned, one of his black leather bags fell to the ground and hit the old man's feet.
The old man squatted down to pick it up, lifted his purse and shook it and shouted, "Hey, you dropped something, biker." Hey, you've dropped something. ”
The more the old man called him, the farther away he became, and finally the middle-aged man disappeared into the dark road.
The young woman stepped forward and said, "Old man, why don't we take a look at what's inside, there may be information about the loss of the owner." ”
The old man nodded, "Yes." ”
"......" unzipped the purse, and there was nothing in it, except for five stacks of money.
Their eyes were wide open, and the woman smiled: "Old man, I'll discuss something with you!"
The old man was puzzled, and the woman stroked the money with her hand and smiled evilly and continued, "Why don't we divide the money!"
When the old man heard this, he turned his body around on the spot, and said angrily: "Little girl, how can we do this! What if someone else's money is money that is urgently needed? This money is a lot, and it may be all the belongings of other people." ”
The woman reached out to grab it, and the old man slashed her hand away: "I can't say no, I want to hand it over to the 'yamen'." ”
Seeing that the old man was unwilling, in order to reassure the old man, she took a step back and said with a smile: "Old man, you send the money to the 'yamen'." There is no information in the purse, and it is difficult to find the owner. ”
The woman looked at the old man who was no longer defensive, and looked at her, and she continued: "You say, who will the money belong to when the time comes. It's not for nothing that it was given to the 'yamen', you say yes or no. ”
Seeing that the old man's heart was shaken, the woman smiled and said, "Life for you and me is not easy. Anyway, it can't go back to its owner, so it's better for me to divide it up, and it can also improve our lives. What do you say?"
A woman dressed in more masculine clothes with a "brother" but a star face and a thin, strong man walked down the path.
The thin man Xiao Song asked the beautiful woman, "Sister Zheng, do you say you can catch those fraudsters tonight?"
The woman Zheng Dandan said helplessly: "It's hard to say, let's take a look around!"
The young woman looked at the old man completely shaken, she reached out and took out two stacks of money, shook it in front of the old man, and said with a smile: "You picked up this money, I take two stacks, you take three stacks." ”
The old man's eyes flickered, and he couldn't go with his conscience, so he snatched the money back, stuffed it back into his purse, and zipped it up, and shouted: "No, I don't have a conscience to go." Little girl, we can't do this, I'd better leave it to the 'catch fast' to deal with!"
While they were arguing, the middle-aged man riding the bicycle came back, stopped beside them, and asked, "Uncle, beauty, have you seen a black leather bag?"
The old man saw that the person who had dropped the thing just now came back, grabbed his money in one hand and handed him the black leather bag with the other, and said with a smile: "Young man, give it, this is yours." ”
The man immediately got out of the car, took the purse, bowed down and thanked with a smile: "Thank you, uncle, this is life-saving money! If I can't find it, I don't know what to do." ”
The old man, who had a reassuring conscience, smiled: "It's good to get it back." You didn't hear me calling you so desperately just now, and I was about to hand it over to the 'yamen'! ”
"Thank you!" the man said thank you, his hand was flipping through the leather bag, counting, and his face changed, "My 100,000 yuan, why is there only 50,000 left." ”
The man did not wait for the old man and the woman to respond, pointed at them, and said angrily: "Say, what is going on." Did you take it? ”
The woman hurriedly opened her satchel: "Look, I have a few dozen yuan in cash." It can't be that I took it. He looked at the old man with a look of contempt, "Your leather bag has always been held by the old man." I don't know if he can take it or not. ”
The old man who was wronged, his blood pressure rose a few points, his feet shook, he 'kicked' a step back, stood firmly, pointed to the woman and said, "How can you say this about me, you just ......"
The man looked at the bag in his hand: "So, what is in your hand?"
The old man wrapped the money he was wrapping up, put his hands in front of his 'brother', and protected it: "This is the 50,000 yuan I just took out from the bank, and there is a bill." ”
The man smiled: "I also just took it out from the bank, and I also have bills, but mine is still serialized." Old man, you show me, as long as it doesn't match the number, it means that you didn't take the money. ”
"Why?" said the old man, reluctantly.
The woman next to her assisted: "Old man, it's not easy to be a good person in this era! You just show him, won't this be solved? Your money won't match his number, what are you afraid of?"
The old man was still unwilling, and a young man came out of the corner, and said with a smile: "Wife, why are you still here, won't you go to the mall?"
The woman of "......" took the man's hand and explained briefly.
The young man pointed at the middle-aged man and said angrily, "Do you want to trap other people's old people? ”
As he spoke, he let go of the woman's hand, raised his fist and punched at the middle-aged man, who hurriedly stopped him.
The middle-aged man took a step back in fear and said, "You're not in a gang, are you!
"Don't call, I'll give you the right number! If it weren't for the serial number, you wouldn't be able to blame me for the money you didn't see. The old man looked at someone helping him, he no longer suspected that the other party was a gang of liars, and he didn't want anything to happen to the other party, so he hurriedly stopped him.
When the old man handed the wrapped money to the middle-aged man, Zhou Xiaobai, who came from the bank, saw them from a distance, and when he got closer, he heard them arguing, and Zhou Xiaobai grabbed the old man's money first.
When the old man saw that someone had robbed him of his money and was robbed, he turned around in a hurry: "You ......"
Zhou Xiaobai handed him his money, he was puzzled, and the middle-aged man saw that the money that was about to arrive flew away again, he pointed at Zhou Xiaobai and said angrily: "What are you doing?
Zhou Xiaobai grabbed his hand with one hand and pointed at him, pulled and turned, pressed and slashed, and the middle-aged man fainted on the ground.
The young man was scared and said, "You, you, you, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Xiaobai picked up the black leather bag and stood up, and 'snorted' the money in the bag with his hand, he loved money like his life, and knew the authenticity of the money, he smiled:
"It's all fake, what do you think I'm doing! Of course I'm catching criminals! You can't be his gang, right?"
Zhou Xiaobai handed the bag to the old man.
The old man took it, took out a few and checked it carefully, and sent it if it was really fake, and the old man looked at the two of them with puzzled eyes as if he had woken up.
The two of them waved their hands and smiled awkwardly, "How so?"
Zhou Xiaobai smiled: "It's good if it's not." Zhou Xiaobai said to the old man, "Old man, if you encounter such a thing in the future, you don't have to solve it yourself." This kind of thing is not to prove himself, but to let the other party prove that the thing is his own, and if it doesn't match, you just need to hand it over to the 'yamen'.
It's not easy for you to save money, even if you encounter such a thing in the future, if it's a little troublesome, you have to find a 'catcher' to help, otherwise you won't even know how to be deceived. If you are really deceived, to put it mildly, you are so old and pulled by all kinds of bad emotions, then you are really only one step away from death. ”
Young men and women were a little panicked, but they were reluctant to leave.
The old man held the money and bowed down gratefully and said, "Thank you!
Zhou Xiaobai raised his hand and grabbed his hand: "Okay, old man." It's fine if you're okay. ”
"Thank you!" the old man looked at him and smiled slightly, his face full of sincerity.
Zhou Xiaobai looked at the man and woman holding hands and smiled: "Do you have anything else? Why are you still here?"
The man grinned and said, "Sir, send this old man home!" he must be frightened. Pointing to the middle-aged man lying on the ground, "My wife and I sent this liar to the 'Yamen'." ”
"Yes, my husband and I sent him to the 'Yamen'. The woman chimed in.
Zhou Xiaobai asked rhetorically, "Is it true?" They nodded, and Zhou Xiaobai smiled, "Do you really treat me as an idiot? Aren't you an accomplice? You are taking the opportunity to take him away!"
The man who was questioned twisted his mouth and said: "You, what are you talking about? You can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." ”
The old man looked at Zhou Xiaobai, and then looked at the man and woman with disbelief.
"In that case, let's go to the 'Yamen' together! Then let the 'Catcher' check whether you know him or not, and know whether you are an accomplice. Let's go!" Zhou Xiaobai said with a smile.
They panicked when they heard this, and the man pounced on Zhou Xiaobai, and he shouted, "Wife, run away!"
The old man did not show weakness, but pounced on her, grabbed her, and shouted: "Come on, swindlers, scam dealers, come on, scam dealers!"
A man and a woman in plainclothes not far away 'catch fast' Xiao Song and Zheng Dandan heard an indistinct shout, and they said in unison: "There is a situation!"
Zheng Dandan pointed ahead: "Xiao Song, let's go, in front." With that, she ran out.
"Okay" Xiao Song also ran out.
The frightened woman kicked the old man to the ground with a single kick, and the old man let out an "ah".
Zhou Xiaobai knocked the man who pounced on him to the ground with three strokes of five divided by two, and looking at the old man who fell, he hurriedly appeared behind the old man and helped him.
But the old man looked at the woman who ran out, and when he stood firm, he pushed Zhou Xiaobai's hand away: "Young man, I'm fine, you go and chase the liar, otherwise they will deceive more people." ”
Zhou Xiaobai nodded, kicked hard with both feet, bounced himself out, and rushed towards the fleeing woman at a speed of 50 meters.
After a while, Zhou Xiaobai caught up with her, Zhou Xiaobai flew and jumped, and a perfect arc backflip stood in front of the woman.
The woman watched Zhou Xiaobai in a fighting posture suddenly appear in front of her, she hurriedly braked, and Zhou Xiaobai punched the woman in the face.
The woman was so frightened that she squatted down with her head in her hands, shouting, "Don't hit me in the face." ”
Zhou Xiaobai, who was originally planning to beat her, looked at her, and he smiled coldly.
Xiao Song and Zheng Dandan, who ran over, listened to the woman's screams, and they shouted: "What are you doing?" ”
