On November 15, 2013, at 3:45 a.m., at least four or five lights were turned on at the same time in the house in the small courtyard.

Chandeliers, wall lamps, fluorescent lamps, table lamps, and even the reading lamp plugged in on the USB port of the computer are also on. There are two windows in the room, both of which are hung with thick black opaque curtains.

A large man was lying on a small white bed in the room, which occupied the entire bed. Thick eyebrows, eagle nose and wide mouth, face is full of vicissitudes of time, cheeks slightly collapsed, described as withered, obviously fighting the disease for a long time. One hand is under the brown printed quilt, the other hand is exposed, the back of the hand is bulging, the skin is covered with bone, and the two fingers are trembling slightly.

Jiang Long, who once dominated Xuancheng for more than ten years and was a powerful underworld, has now become like this.

Jiang Long opened his eyes weakly, as if trying to look at something, and said intermittently: "Turn on the light, why is it so dark......"

All the lights that could be turned on in the room were on, but Jiang Long didn't seem to see the light, and he didn't seem to see me, so he said to Wu Wangjing: "This bed is too small......

The small white bed, which is very inconsistent with the old Chinese furniture in the original wood color around it, is obviously temporarily put in. Wu Wangjing looked at me awkwardly and shook his head helplessly.

Irina leaned forward and whispered a white lie: "Uncle Jiang, the light is broken, it's midnight, let's fix it when it's dawn and change your bed." ”

"No need," Jiang Long said weakly: "Black is darker, small is smaller, when I came to Xuancheng, I didn't suffer anything, these are nothing." What about Xiao Yi, where is Xiao Yi......"

Irina was slightly stunned and held Jiang Long's hand: "Uncle Jiang, Xiao Yi saw that you fell asleep and just left, she still has to go to work today." ”

"Thank you," Jiang Long barely squeezed out a smile: "What day is today?"

I stood aside, and for a moment I felt like I was falling into an ice cave, and I just felt the coolness all around me.

"November 15th," said Irina, "is the early morning of November 15th, and in a few moments, it will be dawn." ”

Jiang Long reluctantly opened his empty eyes and said, "That's still too late, today is Xiao Yiniang's death day, and I want to go to her grave." ”

Wu Wangjing stepped forward, afraid that Jiang Long would not be able to hear clearly, so he said loudly: "Brother Jiang, don't worry, everything is arranged, let's drive there after dawn, and we will definitely be able to arrive before noon." ”

Jiang Long smiled reassuringly and said, "Thank you, brother, I'll sleep and I'm a little tired." ”

After Jiang Long said this, he closed his eyes in relief, completely ignoring my existence.

I have a small question mark in my heart, Wu Wangjing is called Brother Jiang Long, Irina is called Uncle Jiang Long, and Irina is Wu Wangjing's sister?

"Dear, the logistics shows that the goods you purchased have been signed, and the five-star praise of the day will return 20 yuan in red envelopes, and the follow-up evaluation will return 10 yuan. "My phone rang out at an inopportune time, and it seemed very abrupt in the silence of the room, it was a text message.

I pulled out my phone, and there was a signal that came and went.

I think of the sour branch wood jewelry box I bought on Double 11, and a lot of dispensable items, I guess the doorman collected it, and the property service of my building is very good.

Immediately thought that the mobile phone number publicized by the Taobao seller's store was the mysterious call, and I paid attention to the text message, but it was not.

I suspiciously opened Taobao and wanted to confirm again, but a small circle on the screen kept spinning, and there was no network signal.

Could it be that I have been haunted by that mysterious phone call a few days ago, and my memory has been skewed? This is not something that has never happened before.

When I was young, I loved to eat bean paste mooncakes, and at that time, the conditions at home were not very good, and I could only eat a few during the Mid-Autumn Festival. One year, my parents were on a business trip, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was not there, and I lived in the school and didn't eat. After a few days, I thought about it, and then my classmates asked me, and I described the taste of the mooncakes that day, the fine glutinous, the sweet, and a few melon kernels.

People, always remembering these happy scenes, selectively forget, lose and grieve.

………………………………

"What are you thinking?" asked Irina, looking at my distraction.

"Oh, it's fine. I looked at her bun that I didn't know when she was pulling up, and said, "What did you call me for?"

In a blink of an eye, I looked at Wu Wangjing, and this sentence was also asked to him.

Wu Wangjing sighed and said, "Mr. Cao, oh no, Brother Cao, there is a reason for inviting you to come, and it is a last resort." ”

My mind was spinning so fast that it didn't come to be a good thing to change my name to brother on the fly. Could it be that Dr. Jin bought Jiang Long's house? I took a step back, afraid of Wu Wangjing's skills. Don't blame me for this, I just found out, it was all done by Dr. Jin and Xiao Ji a long time ago, Jiang Long was originally ready to breach the contract, not a pit brother, at most I was a smooth sail and didn't report it.

Wu Wangjing beckoned to me and motioned for me to come closer.

I can't go over, this person once won a small victory, and defeated Jiang Long of the Xuancheng Five Tigers alone, and I will not be an opponent in the past six.

Isn't it that the ownership has not been transferred yet? Originally, I felt that this money was uncomfortable.

Wu Wangjing seemed to see my thoughts clearly, and said slowly: "Brother, don't get me wrong, I asked Dr. Jin to help from the beginning of this matter." ”

What is the situation? Wu Wangjing knew that Dr. Jin was going to buy Jiang Long's house? I stepped forward, my brain was a little deprived of oxygen, and I didn't understand it.

Wu Wangjing rubbed his hands, and then said: "Jiang Long has seen a doctor in the past few years, although there is medical insurance, you also know that many new imported drugs cannot be reimbursed, and he has almost spent all his savings over the years, and his credit card has been overdrawn by more than 800,000 yuan. The down payment for this house was also borrowed from me, and there was an IOU. ”

I gradually understood a little, and asked, "What does Brother Wu mean is that Dr. Jin has to pay you back the money for the house that Dr. Jin bought to Jiang Long?"

"So to speak. Wu Wangjing said: "It is natural to repay debts. Do you say?"

I gasped and restrained my discontent. What Dr. Jin wants to earn is the income from the premium after the house price rises, and it is the money to take over the next family, Jiang Long originally planned to breach the contract, but he still helped Jiang Long. What Wu Wangjing wanted was a down payment, which was Jiang Long's money. Obviously, the so-called Jiang Long's IOU is nothing more than a piece of paper, Jiang Long is seriously ill and bedridden, and he is not asked to sign whatever he wants.

Before, Dr. Jin and Xiao Ji asked me to cooperate in the transfer contract, the company did not want to provoke Jiang Long, so there was no actual loss, Jiang Long was unable to pay the balance and recovered the down payment, and the next family bought a sought-after house at the market price, and each took what he needed to help his friend. I don't think there's anything wrong with it, it's just a matter of process operation.

Right now...... Shocked by Wu Wangjing's skills, I didn't know how to answer for a while. I secretly made up my mind that I couldn't agree to anything that was illegal, and Irina really couldn't be his sister.

Wu Wangjing seemed to be able to read minds, understood my thoughts, and continued: "Brother, don't worry, I'm helping Jiang Long, and I'm not harming him. There are some things that I can't explain in a few words, and I promise that the money will not go into my pocket. ”

"Whose pocket did that go into?" I asked coldly, "the Red Cross Society of China?"

Wu Wangjing's face turned red, as if he was weighing, some things should not be said, and some things were inconvenient for me to know.

"Brother, don't talk to this elm pimple. Irina looked at me with blazing eyes and asked, "You say, do you want to help?"

I expected Ai Ai to be vague: "You must help when you call helping, that is, in terms of ways and means, can we still discuss it? Sometimes the same purpose, another approach, may ......."

Wu Wangjing saw my embarrassed appearance, and discussed with Irina: "Sister, why don't you talk to your brother, it's not an outsider." ”

Irina may have been mistaken, her cheeks were crimson, and she stomped her feet and said: "I can't tell this person, people have been looking for three girlfriends in Jinsha for two years to sing, and he has been going for four years, but he hasn't found one." ”

I smiled wryly.

Irina said to me: "Let's talk about this matter slowly, can I ask you to accompany my brother and send Jiang Long to Suzhou?"

"Suzhou?" I asked, "Now?"

Irina did not shy away from it, and said: "Look at Uncle Jiang's appearance, how long can he hold on, today is his wife's death day, and he has to go to Suzhou every year to go to the grave." ”

I thought about it, Jiang Long was a patient, and he didn't commit any crimes, but his condition was rather peculiar. Jiang Long was taken away from Jiuzhou Hospital by Wu Wangjing, and the police blocked the news, so logically speaking, I didn't know about it. Helping a seriously ill lonely person to return to his hometown to go to his wife's grave is not a crime, this can be done.

Seeing me nodding, Irina's expression eased slightly, and she said to Wu Wangjing: "He can't drive when he's drunk, brother, you drive, and he and I will carry Uncle Jiang into the car." ”
