1633 Don't Live for Yourself

Aftershock, in fact, is really different from other people in the black market.

The reason why he went to the black market to make a living was because he made money quickly in this place, and he was really short of money.

The family has been relatively poor since childhood, his father died early, and he did not go to school, and it is already good to know how to read, he likes to read since he was a child, but the composition of the family is not good, and he has two younger siblings to raise, and there is no money for him to go to school.

Fortunately, his grandfather knows how to read, and he has taught him to read and read since he was a child, and the books hidden at home have been learning since he was a child, and he can be regarded as a learner when he becomes an adult.

But after learning these things, there is no way for him to have a job, and the factories will not want people like him.

In desperation, he can only do some work outside such as coolies, just to have a little money for three meals a day, and to help the family take care of his younger siblings at home.

It's just that I didn't expect that this family is really a disaster, and seeing that my sister finally has a job as an adult, the family can improve a little.

But who would have thought that just when Aftershock felt that he could breathe a sigh of relief, something happened to his sister.

When I was working in the factory, my sister's long black hair was accidentally rolled into the machine, and it happened suddenly, although there were workers around to help, but the method was not very proper, although the person was not torn into the machine, but the whole scalp was torn to pieces.

When I was sent to the hospital, because of a large area of infection in the wound, the high fever could not go away, and when I woke up, I was also burned.

The owner of the factory knew about this, so he didn't think about evading responsibility, and the money was not less, but his sister's situation was obviously impossible to cure.

In the end, he could only bring his sister home and ask his mother to take care of him every day, while he tried his best to make money outside all day long.

He has to support the whole family alone, and his younger brother can't stand it anymore when he sees that he is working hard alone, so he secretly ran out of school, trying his best to make money outside, thinking that he could help his eldest brother reduce his burden.

But he was young, and he still had a limited understanding of the sinister outside after all, and he was coaxed and deceived into going down the wrong road.

The person in charge of arresting Yu Zhen's younger brother back then was Kong Jie's master, and when he caught this kid, he gritted his teeth and wanted to shield those who coaxed him.

Just because these people once said that once he had an accident, they would give a sum of money to his family to make up for his loss.

But he is still young after all, and the old criminal investigator wanted to pry his mouth open, but he just used a little means, and after finding the aftershock, this kid couldn't bear it, and explained what he had done with the criminals in the past two years, and explained all these people.

Through his confession, the police quickly arrested everyone.

Yu Zhen's younger brother can also be regarded as a meritorious performance, and his sentence was also commuted to a certain extent.

But Yu Zhen didn't want his younger brother to squat in it for so long, so he begged Kong Jie's master, hoping to help his younger brother and help him reduce his sentence as much as possible.

But where is this matter so easy, if you want to come out early, it depends on how well his brother behaves in it.

But he wants to help his brother outside, unless he helps solve the case, which may be of some help to his brother.

And many people know Aftershock's home conditions, except for his strength, he is almost useless, and he doesn't have any ability to be around, even if he wants to make money, it is not an easy thing for him.

On the contrary, he used the police station as an informant, and he might be able to help his family solve the problem of expenses.

Aftershock also figured it out, he was tired and half dead every day outside, and he couldn't make much money in the end, so it was better to help the police, firstly, the informant fee could be obtained, and secondly, it would be helpful for his younger brother, and the problems of his younger siblings were solved.

But he didn't expect that after a period of simple makeup training, the position he was placed in turned out to be on the black market.

Although he had never been in contact with any place, he had heard of it before, and he was very afraid of this place at the time.

But after being in contact with this place for a while, he slowly got used to it, and in order to pretend to be a little more like his identity, he even found a lot of fortune tellers in the countryside and studied for a period of time.

When he returned to the black market, whether he was an informant or told fortunes to some people who came and went, he could earn a little money, at least enough to subsidize his family.

It's just a pity, the good times didn't last long, Kong Jie's master was old and applied for retirement, and he didn't make much money before he had no superiors to contact him.

He just knew that in the future, he would be under Kong Jie's control, and Kong Jie would also give him his informant fee.

But he didn't know when Kong Jie would come to him, after all, he had been in the black market for a long time, and many people knew about him, and it was inconvenient for him to contact Kong Jie.

I just thought that it really wouldn't work, so I didn't do it for them, and after drawing all the maps, handing them over to the police station would be regarded as a gratitude.

As for whether you want to continue to be an informant in the future, let's talk about it then!

Before he could do it, the map was finished, but before he could deliver it to the police station, his mother suddenly had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital.

After the hospital rescued the person, he needed immediate surgery, otherwise his mother's condition would be hopeless.

And the high cost of surgery made him desperate and wanted to cry, even if he went home and smashed the pot and sold iron, he couldn't come up with so much surgery fees.

Just when he was about to go home and find a way, he happened to see Kong Jie at the door of the hospital.

He immediately remembered that he hadn't received the informant's fee in the past few years, and if he could get this money, plus the money he had saved before, it might be barely enough.

But at that time, Kong Jie seemed to be in a bad mood, and when he saw him, he was not in a good mood at all, and he was indifferent to his requirements at all, and he didn't even want to talk to him at all.

In the end, Aftershock had no other choice but to kneel in front of him and beg him to lend him some money.

But Kong Jie didn't even bother to look at him, shook off his hand and left.

The grudge between the two is even if it is settled, but Yu Zhen's younger brother is still inside, and he dares to be angry with this Kong Jie.

Even Kong Jie has never given him an informant fee, every time Kong Jie finds him, no matter what he wants, he will try his best to help, but the map that has been completed a long time ago, he never thought of taking it out.

After all, he can't be relied on by the police, and he may be able to barely survive in the black market, even if his mother is gone, he still has a sister to take care of.

In fact, Kong Jie didn't know about this at all, and he had some words to him when the master left, but that night, he was not in a good mood, and he didn't listen to many things.

The police officer who was with him on the hunt for the wanted criminal died in front of him, but he was powerless and powerless to stop it, and this incident has always left a deep shadow in his heart.

Even if he was left behind by Zhao Ju's guarantee, he still felt full of guilt in his heart, and he never came out of the shadow of the year.

Later, because of himself, the master retired early, and in his opinion, this was caused by his mistakes at the beginning.

So that night, he was so drunk that he said many things, but he didn't listen to them at all.

I didn't understand that this informant fee had to be paid every month, and I thought that every time I asked someone for news, I would give a little money and send it away.

As for that time, Aftershock met him in the hospital, which was relatively unlucky.

That day, Kong Jie's deceased comrade-in-arms mother was hospitalized, and he went to visit with gifts, but after entering the door, he was kicked out of the ward without finishing his words.

He wasn't angry with the old man, after all, that comrade-in-arms was an only child in his family, and the old man was so old, and it was difficult for anyone to accept that a white-haired person sent a black-haired person.

He can also figure this out, but he still can't forgive himself, in his opinion, it was his fault that caused all this, if it wasn't for the impulse to do it without waiting for the help to arrive, there would be nothing that happened later.

As a result, when he came out of the hospital, he happened to encounter aftershocks, and when he came up, he asked for an informant fee.

Looking at the aftershock's appearance, Kong Jie couldn't say how disgusted he was, in his opinion, anyone who begged for a living in the black market did not have a good thing.

If it weren't for this kind of person, his comrades-in-arms would not have been killed, and the mothers of their comrades-in-arms would not have lost their sons, and they would have washed their faces with tears all day long.

He looked down on these people from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't even want to say a word to them.

As for saying that when Aftershock borrowed money from him at that time, he just sneered, threw off his hand and left, not wanting to say a word more.

It has been more than three years since the estrangement between the two people arose, and if it weren't for today's events, these two people still couldn't let go of the prejudices in their hearts.

In order to become a qualified informant, Aftershock's sacrifice is indeed not small, and he has been lurking in the black market for nearly ten years.

A man in his thirties, in order to hide his identity, even made himself look like he was in his fifties, and ordinary people looked at him from a distance, and even thought he was an old man.

Giving so much and not getting the recognition it deserves.

And Kong Jie has been tortured by the events of that year for so many years, not to mention the family of his comrades-in-arms, even his master he has no face to see, usually just a phone call to say hello, he can't see him once a year, and the sourness in his heart is only understood by himself.

After listening to the words of these two people, Ding Fan couldn't help but sigh, he didn't know what to say about what happened to these two people.

"Aftershock!" Ding Fan thought for a while, didn't care about Kong Jie beside him, walked to Aftershock's side and stretched out his hand to pat him and said, "I need your help, I think you should know everything very well tonight, I want the map now." ”

"I owe you money in the past few years, I will help you get it back, or I will pay for it to you myself. ”

"But I hope you don't blame him, strictly speaking, both of you are the same kind of people, you don't live for yourself, he lives for the comrades who died back then, and you live for your family. ”

Kong Jie was silent all the time, and did not speak, perhaps at this moment he understood that he was wrong to blame Aftershock, but he didn't know what to say.

And Aftershock's mood basically calmed down, and he still glanced at Kong Jie from time to time, Ding Fan's words could be regarded as speaking to his heart, and he didn't hate Kong Jie so much.

The two have no deep hatred, and Kong Jie can't be blamed for his mother's death, no one can control the matter of birth, old age, sickness and death.

"I know you need a map, the things are in my house, I'll give it to you later!" Aftershock nodded silently, with tears in the corners of his eyes, he sniffed hard and said: "I'm really poor, but I'm not working hard for money, everything I do is for my brother, I don't want money, I just hope that my brother can come out sooner, and our family can be reunited, when my mother left, the biggest regret is that the family couldn't sit together for a meal." ”

Aftershock does need money, but in his eyes, money is not the most important thing, his family is the most important thing in his heart.

"One yard is one yard, my brother's side I will help you ask!" Ding Fan glanced at Kong Jie and said to Yu Zhen: "I will definitely give you the money that should be given to you, as for what I want to do tonight." Count separately. ”
