421, place
According to this aunt's complaint, Xiao Ran roughly understood the methods of Brother Ling and his group.
They recruit a large number of idle people in the community, engage in soft violence, harassment and entanglement, threats and intimidation against residents in the community, and once the intimidation of competitors outside the community fails, they directly use violent means to find opportunities to smash shops and beat others.
The combination of the two forms a monopoly on the decoration business in the nearby community, with shoddy, forced buying and selling, and high manual fees to extract profits in disguise, causing the community to dare to be angry and dare not speak, and act extremely arrogant and arrogant.
Bidding farewell to the retired aunt, Xiao Ran contacted Mr. Bao, the owner of household 2104, according to the mobile phone number provided by Zhao Yong, and asked about Mr. Bao's address, planning to go over to learn about yesterday's situation again.
"These people are too rampant, in the context of the phenomenon, I really don't know where they borrowed the courage to dare to do this! Lawless, it is completely the underworld, and we must give him a nest to get rid of!"
Sitting in the car, Zhang Lei, who could maintain a normal heart in the face of various situations in the past, was still angry, Xiao Ran looked at the car coming from behind him from the rearview mirror, and said coldly: "That's why we came to investigate." Don't worry, you can't run away from them!"
As he spoke, Xiao Ran drove from the south gate of the 'Golden Sunshine' community to the east gate road, and the aunt said that the building materials store run by the gang was on the left side of the east gate.
Sure enough, right next to the east gate of 'Golden Sunshine', a building materials store the size of three storefronts is very conspicuous.
There are two piles of sand piled up at the door of this building materials store, maybe it has been placed for a long time, and it looks twisted under the light, reminiscent of what the aunt said are inferior goods, and it is not good sand to think about it.
On the signboard above the building materials store, the words 'rest assured home' are written, but the young men at the door of the store who are looking around, shirtless, and covered with tattoos have nothing to do with the word 'rest assured'.
Xiao Ran slowed down the car, while Zhang Lei rolled down the rear window and took careful pictures with the recorder.
Suddenly, a young man with a flower arm who was squatting at the door of the store stood up and pointed at Xiao Ran, and shouted behind him: "Cadillac of Beijing C! Brother Dao, Cadillac of Beijing C!"
", Xiao Ran, what did you do, they seem to have a blood feud with you!"
Looking at the hooligan youths rushing towards the car, Zhang Lei grinned and teased, while raising the window to cover the recorder being filmed.
"You still have the heart to laugh, the steel pipes are all taken out, if you don't run, we will really be beaten, sit tight. Xiao Ran kicked the accelerator and quickly shook off the idle youths.
Watching these people throw out the steel pipe and smash it from behind from the rearview mirror, Xiao Ran snorted coldly, remembering the appearance of these people in his heart, especially the sturdy man he saw yesterday, he remembered it more clearly.
Thinking about it, this sturdy man is the Daoist brother in the mouth of the flower-armed young man just now.
The car drove out of the area near the 'Golden Sunshine', and Xiao Ran asked, "Have you taken pictures of everything?"
Zhang Lei affirmed: "That's a must, my technology, the picture is not shaking, chasing and beating the police officers who are on duty, what a good material." ”
"Okay, let's go to that Mr. Bao's house again, and invite you to dinner when we're done. ”
"I'm hungry and working overtime with you, and you want to send me away after a meal?"
"And what do you want to do?"
"At least two meals, and you have to have a lot of meat. ”
"Are you a carnivore too?
Thinking of Yu Yu wielding tweezers and scalpels, and walking with a smile, Zhang Lei couldn't play the game in his hand anymore, "Can we not mention her, how much do you want me to rub your meal!"
“......”
Mr. Bao, the owner of the 2,104 households, did not live in the urban area, and it was 7 or 8 o'clock in the evening, and the traffic on the road was slow, so it took Xiao Ran and them more than half an hour to find the residence of Mr. Bao's family.
Knocking on the door of Mr. Bao's house, what came out was a man with a sparse forehead of medium stature wearing a Barcelona jersey, Xiao Ran pursed the corners of his mouth without a trace, fortunately he rarely wore those Real Madrid jerseys.
"Are you Mr. Bao?" Xiao Ran asked, looking at the man.
The man was still looking at Xiao Ran and Zhang Lei suspiciously, and hesitated for a while before nodding and saying, "Ah, I am." You're the one who called me just now and said you could help me with the renovation problem?"
"Yes, that's me. ”
"Well, come in and talk about it. Mr. Bao led Xiao Ran and Zhang Lei into the house.
Xiao Ran went into the house and looked around, Mr. Bao's family lived in a somewhat old two-bedroom apartment, looking at Mr. Bao's lovely children on the sofa in the living room, it was indeed more comfortable to live in a larger house.
Mr. Bao's two sons and daughters are not very old, the eldest daughter is seven or eight years old, and the younger son is three or four years old, all staring at Xiao Ran silently, completely ignoring the cartoons on TV.
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded at the boy and girl, the little boy sat in his mother's arms, shook his body and grinned at Xiao Ran, and as a result, Xiao Ran saw the dialing page on Mr. Bao's wife's mobile phone, which had already entered 110 three numbers, and could be dialed at any time.
Xiao Ran smiled helplessly, it was right to be wary of strangers.
After sitting down, Mr. Bao smoked two cigarettes and handed them over, and Xiao Ran and Zhang Lei waved their hands to indicate that they would not smoke.
Mr. Bao threw the cigarette case on the coffee table, and then asked, "You say, can you help me solve the renovation matter? Just the two of you, they are such a big gang of underworlds, how do you solve it?"
The air was silent for two seconds, Xiao Ran took out the documents from his pocket and put them in front of Mr. Bao: "Let's solve it this way." ”
"This, this ......" Mr. Bao was dumbfounded, lowered his head and pointed to the certificate, raised his head and pointed at Xiao Ran, and was speechless for a while.
Xiao Ran put away his documents and said with a smile: "Do you believe we can solve it?"
"Believe it, believe it 100 percent, who else can you trust if you don't believe the police!"
Mr. Bao excitedly walked around the coffee table and held Xiao Ran's hand tightly, and said with emotion: "Oh, excited, so excited." I didn't dare to call the police before, I just thought about this loss and swallowed it like this, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you actually took the initiative to come to the door, it's almost 9 o'clock, hard, you are too hard!"
Mr. Bao, who couldn't speak coherently, sat down, and Xiao Ran said: "This group of people are doing evil near the 'Golden Sunshine' community, and we are also investigating, so I came to you so late to learn about the situation from you, and I hope you can cooperate with us." ”
"Cooperate, must cooperate!" Mr. Bao said repeatedly, and then recounted yesterday's events to Xiao Ran and them.
The first half is basically the same as what Zhao Yong and they described, and as for the second half, it was Brother Ling and his gang who threatened Mr. Bao that either he would not live in the house or find their construction team to work.
"I don't know what channels they have to find out the situation of our adults and children, but the house has been bought, so I have no choice but to ask them to do it. ”
Mr. Bao lamented: "30,000 yuan, the manual fee they asked for is 30,000 yuan higher than the person I found before! This is obviously a robbery! Hey, me too, you said that if I had known that you would come, why didn't I delay for two days and pay them a deposit!"
Xiao Ran's eyes burned, and he suddenly thought of something: "You have already paid the deposit for the manual fee?"
