23. The thief and the bodhisattva
The days were dull again, and Chang An lived a daily cleaning day, watching Wang Cheng play cards, and listening to the bragging.
Two days later, at two o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Chunsheng appeared at the restaurant.
As soon as Chang An saw Wang Chunsheng, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile.
"Brother Wang, why are you here?"
Wang Chunsheng rubbed Chang An's hair, and the flat head, which was originally slightly messy because it was a little long, was even more messy by Wang Chunsheng.
"The thief's business is already clear, I'll tell you. ”
Wang Cheng, who was on the side, heard Wang Chunsheng's words, and hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on? Our restaurant is dilapidated and small, what are you doing to steal us if you have nothing to do?"
Wang Chunsheng smiled, and then slowly began to explain.
The thief's name is Wan San, 17 years old this year, from rural Yunnan, who just arrived in Shenzhen half a month ago.
The young man who originally had the dream of panning for gold in the big city experienced the sinister nature of society within half an hour of getting off the train.
The lad's wallet was stolen and his luggage was cheated out. But the young man who felt that his dream was above all else still stubbornly didn't find a way to go home.
Instead, he learned from a group of beggars around the train station, and since then he has lived a life of day and night.
During the day, he would sleep under a nearby bridge hole, and at night he would come out to find leftovers that no one else wanted.
But after a long time, the young man himself couldn't stand it. They are all pampered at home, why do they come out to suffer such a sin?
Once people have this kind of thinking, they are prone to go to extremes.
So after a few days of careful consideration, the young man finally came up with a bad idea.
At first, the young man wanted to learn from others to rob, but he didn't realize that he would encounter a ruthless character in the first robbery.
After being knocked to the ground with three punches and two kicks, the young man felt that he was really not up to the task of being extremely dangerous.
After choosing the direction of the crime again, the young man set his sights on the shops along the street.
After earning his first pot of gold in a shop two blocks away, the young man treated himself. I used the rest of the money to buy a series of crime tools such as flashlights and screwdrivers.
But the good times didn't last long, and the young man spent a lot of effort to finally get into the restaurant where Chang An was, but he was almost killed by Chang An's crockpot.
Hearing this, Wang Cheng laughed unconsciously.
"You said that this kid came all the way from his hometown in Yunnan to Shenzhen, what is the plan?"
Wang Chunsheng also smiled and shook his head.
"When our director learned about him from somewhere else, he was a little bit sympathetic. No, I just got him on the train back to his hometown, and I'm here for you. ”
Saying that, Wang Chunsheng looked at Chang An and said half-truthfully: "Don't learn from him in the future, if you can't get along, even if you go home, you won't be ashamed." When you squat in and then go home, that's a shame. ”
Chang An nodded when he heard this, and then entered the kitchen.
After a while, Chang An brought out a cup of hot water from the kitchen and put it in front of Wang Chunsheng.
"Brother Wang, drink water. ”
Wang Chunsheng smiled and picked up the cup, took a sip gently, and then said to Wang Cheng: "I heard that you asked someone to make anti-theft windows and anti-theft doors a few days ago, how did you do?"
It's okay not to mention this stubble, but when Wang Cheng mentions this stubble, he can't help but pat his thigh.
"Don't mention it, I looked for an electric welding worker at the intersection to make an anti-theft window, and it turned out to be something, and it opened as soon as I pulled my hand. Isn't that fooling people?"
Wang Chunsheng smiled.
Wang Cheng is engaged in electric welding, Wang Chunsheng knows. That guy knows that he sells fakes, what anti-theft windows can be opened with his hands, and the anti-theft doors will be broken with his feet.
But even so, this welding shop is still doing business.
Most of the landlords in Shenzhen's urban villages are reluctant to spend money, and this kind of cheap goods is very popular with these people.
"I'll recommend one to you later, the security window in our interrogation room is made by him, and the quality is not bad. ”
Hearing Wang Chunsheng's words, Wang Cheng nodded, and then asked Wang Chunsheng, "Officer Wang, do I want to ask you something?"
Wang Chunsheng was stunned.
"What's the matter?"
Wang Cheng hesitated for a moment, then came to Wang Chunsheng's ear and asked in a low voice, "I heard that I am going to be beaten again, is it true?"
Wang Chunsheng snorted and laughed.
"How did you hear about it? Why don't I know? Besides, what's the matter with you?"
Wang Cheng scratched his head a little embarrassed.
I heard that in order to welcome Hong Kong's return to the motherland, a number of hooligans and ruffians will be defeated. ”
Wang Chunsheng smiled and took a sip of the hot water in the cup, and then looked at Chang An on the side.
"Have you heard?"
Chang An was listening to the conversation between the two with relish, but suddenly saw Wang Chunsheng asking him, and immediately shook his head.
"I didn't ...... No. ”
Only then did Wang Chunsheng turn his head to look at Wang Cheng.
"Don't listen to the guys out there, they know something. ”
As he spoke, Wang Chunsheng stood up.
"Alright, I'm leaving, I'm here today to tell you about the thief. ”
Chang An was about to open his mouth to stay, but saw Wang Chunsheng suddenly turn his head to look at him.
"Tomorrow I will be off duty, I will come to you in the morning, let's go to Hongfa Temple to incense together. ”
Chang An turned his head to look at Wang Cheng when he heard this, as if he was asking Wang Cheng's opinion.
"Go ahead, it's okay. I also think it's time for you to put on incense and see how much has happened to you lately. ”
With Wang Cheng's permission, Chang An nodded at Wang Chunsheng. The latter chuckled softly and strode out of the restaurant.
Chang An was about to chase out to send Wang Chunsheng off, but heard Wang Cheng say behind him.
"Don't send it, follow me to buy clothes. Your clothes are smoked and burned in the restaurant every day, don't smoke the Bodhisattva. ”
With that, Wang Cheng stood up and pulled Chang An out of the restaurant.
followed Wang Cheng to a clothing wholesale market a street away, and Wang Cheng walked into a store.
After laughing a few words with the female boss in the store, he pointed to Chang An behind him and said to the female boss: "This is my little brother, I am going on a blind date tomorrow and get a good body." ”
As soon as the female boss heard Wang Cheng's words, she glanced at Chang An.
"Yo, whose little boy is this? You're going on a blind date at such a young age?"
As she spoke, the female boss turned her head to look at Wang Cheng.
"This little guy can't be your son, right?"
"How old am I to have such a son?"
Chang An on the side watched Wang Cheng and the proprietress arguing, and the corners of his mouth gently raised a smile.
