Chapter 2 Murder and Punishment

The Nandu Xinyuan community was originally overused by the surrounding demolition households.

In recent years, the city has grown rapidly, and the great changes in the suburbs have allowed local farmers to live an enviable and prosperous life by collecting rent.

What the happy and fulfilled villagers want most is to maintain the status quo for a hundred years, so in the past few years, the leaders of the district and the street have been looked down upon when they come to the village to talk about demolition.

Later, the district retreated again and again to increase the compensation for the demolition, and only then did the agreement be signed under the leadership of the branch secretary.

Before the problem of over-housing and resettlement housing could be solved, an international event in the city inexplicably drove up housing prices around the village.

Since then, the demolition agreement has become a piece of waste paper in the eyes of the villagers. Then there were those who came to talk about the demolition and relocation, and in line with the idea of not blaming the public, the old and young in the village followed suit. The district was also afraid that it would cause mass incidents and affect stability and unity, so the demolition and relocation matters were temporarily pressed.

Until an accident a year later, the villagers could no longer stop the rolling gears of the demolition.

The villages are all four-storey houses built by farmers. The first and second floors are self-occupied, and the third and fourth floors plus the attic are rented. In order to separate it from the daily life of the tenants, the stairs from the second to the third floors are blocked, and an iron escalator is erected at the back of the house to facilitate the tenants to go up and down the third floor.

In this way, the separation of the host and guest does not affect each other, and the houses in the village are generally like this.

Most of the tenants who commute to work in this neighborhood ride battery cars, so each yard will build a carport against the wall. The landlord then hung a plug-in board from the window and charged a charging fee of 350 yuan per month.

And that accident was a fire caused by this little power strip.

In the middle of the night, the sparks splashed by the power strip ignited the aging wires, and the flames climbed up the window and ignited the curtains, and the fire suddenly became bigger.

Smoke poured up from the window, and the landlord's family, awakened by the crackling sound on the first floor, rushed out of the building naked, and the men and women howled at the tenants upstairs. They failed to wake up the tenants but were alarmed by the fire, the fire went out of the window and frantically frantically flicked upward, the sound of glass shattering, the crackling of wood, and the whirring of the fire were endless.

A whistling fire truck stopped at the entrance of the village. The originally narrow village road was full of private cars, and there were iron trees and potted plants in front of the house, as well as stone beast houses, which made it difficult for fire trucks to move an inch.

When the fire was completely extinguished, the sky was exposed to the white of the fish's belly. Firefighters found three charred bodies at the staircase on the third floor, and seven others upstairs who failed to save themselves and escaped from the room.

The response to the incident was bad, and the city was appeased and punished accordingly, and the demolition of Nandu Village was unstoppable.

Most of the demolition households in the city have houses, and even if they have not bought a house, they can live in a chic way even if they get compensation. As an over-the-top house for demolition households, Nandu Xinyuan only charges a monthly rent of 500 yuan for a two-bedroom apartment, and the lease agreement states that it is not allowed to sublet privately. The demolition households seemed to have found an opportunity to turn over and become landlords, and they applied to rent houses and sublet them to outsiders at prices ranging from 2,800 to 3,000 yuan, and Luo Bin was one of these outsiders.

Luo Bin stood downstairs, lit a cigarette and smoked slowly, he looked around the quiet surroundings of the community, only a few street lamps stood silently. He took a few puffs of smoke, raised his hand and flicked half of the cigarette butt out, paused, stepped forward and snuffed it out on tiptoe.

He fastened the zipper of his down jacket, raised the collar to the tip of his nose to cover half of his face, took out the leather gloves in his pocket and put them on, stepped on the electric car and drove towards the gate of the community.

The uncle on the door guard hadn't fallen asleep yet, he was lying in a chair and looking up at the TV on the counter, and he just turned his head sideways to Luo Bin, who went out in the middle of the night, and still looked back at his TV.

It is surrounded by the ruins of demolition, and a main road running through the north and south is also surrounded by half of it because of the construction of the subway, and there are many street lamps along the way.

Luo Bin picked up the black shadow on the side of the road and rode the bike without hurrying, trying to recall the monitoring probes in the corners and corners of his mind to avoid them, and gradually came to the riverside again.

There was no one on the riverside at midnight, and he walked leisurely northward along the scenic runway near the river. The south side is mostly local farmers who will be demolished but not demolished, and the further north you go, the better the hardware facilities along the way.

Luo Bin thought that it would be easier to meet a woman who ran alone at night or a rich man who returned late after drinking.

Passing by the Jiangbin Park that has not yet been fully completed along the way, Luo Bin, who was hidden in the dark, looked up at the dense street lights in front of him and several monitors at key intersections and stopped moving forward. He pushed the car into the grass of the park next to the road, and after several times the car failed to succeed due to the soft floating mud, he let it fall to the ground, and then got up and hid in the bushes by the roadside.

In fact, by this time, he had long lost his ruthless mood. Just thinking of the imminent collection and the guilt of his parents, chagrin and remorse, intertwined and wrapped in his nerves. He wants to go back and continue his game, but he desperately wants to solve the current dilemma, and now that he is here, he might as well try his luck.

After squatting for a long time, the calves began to go numb, and Luo Bin reached out and pinched the muscles on the calves, which were indeed softer than half a year ago. The fitness and long-distance running that had been insisted on for two years were also given up a year ago, and the medium height of 1.78 meters was originally clear and powerful. And now he has been lying like a corpse for half a year, his healthy complexion has faded, and the muscles of his body, especially his legs, are becoming more and more hairy.

While he was thinking wildly, he saw a man and a dog coming in front of him through the branches and leaves. Although it was a little far away and couldn't really see it, the person's demeanor must be old, and Luo Bin understood that this might be a great opportunity. Look at the man slightly raised his hand and pinched the dog leash, and the led puppy ran ahead with broken steps.

When the man and the dog came closer, Luo Bin took a closer look, and felt that the old man was a little familiar but had never seen it, and the thin old man might look a little similar.

His mind spun but he withdrew the knife and quietly hidden. I thought in my heart, robbing an old man who was sleepless was too much, so let's let it go for the time being.

I saw that the old man crossed the intersection and came here, perhaps because he felt that the road was too dark, looked at the park that was out of work on the side, turned back to look at the bright street lamps on the road, and pulled the hand holding the rope, the dog stopped his broken steps and looked at the master, and then looked down and sniffed the trunk of the tree on the side of the road, and turned around the trunk, raised his legs and sprinkled some marks, but did not stop much, turned around and walked bumpily on the road. The old man continued to follow step by step.

Luo Bin was still squatting in place, except for a few cars whizzing by on the motorway, but there was no figure in sight. Just as he was about to get up, two bright headlights shining from north to south, Luo Bin had to bend down and wait for the car to go first.

Before the car came closer, Luo Bin avoided the headlights to recognize that it was a two-door sports car, but the car that was about to pass by was the front of the car slammed to the ground, and a sudden brake will stop not far in front of Luo Bin.

In response to the sound of the driver's seat opening the door, the lights in the car turn on. Because of the proximity, Luo Bin also saw it really, there was a quiet woman sitting on the passenger seat, seeing that her hair was as smooth as brocade at the shoulders, with a wide-brimmed plain pink headband buttoned on her forehead, her eyebrows and eyes were clear and her skin was like congealed fat, and her upper body was wrapped in a white down jacket.

The man in sunglasses in the driver's seat impatiently pushed the car door, took a few steps around the rear of the car and opened the passenger door, and reached sideways to pull the woman out. "Bang" and quickly closed the door, and then stepped back to the driver's seat, pointed to the woman and said, "If you dare to enter my house in private again and talk nonsense with my mother, don't blame me for being ruthless." After saying that, he got into the car, turned the front of the car, roared twice, and stepped on the floor oil, leaving the woman standing alone.

It can be seen that their family background must be excellent, but Luo Bin hesitated whether he could go out today, and struggled for a long time, and in the end, he had to admit that he had no courage and consciousness to commit a crime at all in his heart, he just pretended to be ruthless when his heart was agitated, and his anger dissipated after a long time, how could he still have the courage to bluff people with a knife. Thinking of this, he let out his anger and silently picked up the knife himself.

It was strange to look at the woman, in the middle of the night, the third watch was alone on the side of the dim road, and he didn't seem scared, let alone the grievance that he had just been blamed for. She stood there for a while, took out her mobile phone and dialed the phone, and then she stood there as quietly and comfortably, and it didn't take long for a car speeding from the south to pick her up and turn around.

Only then did Luo Bin walk out of the bushes in a daze, picked up the car and sat upright, twisting the handlebars to the north.

Now that there is no intention of doing evil, the street lights and surveillance in front of him are even more open. Luo Bin rode aimlessly, but he remembered Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu" in his mind, he viciously wanted to kill someone, but his head was broken and bleeding by the four-eyed boy.

It is said that there is tragedy behind comedy, just like I can't even be a bad guy today......
