Chapter 56: Is There Any Way Back for Me?
Next to a mass grave in a certain rural area in Jiangbei, Jiang Guangnan, who had already changed into new clothes, used a lighter to ignite the newly purchased coin in a newly dug soil pit, and then stiffly threw all the clothes, shoes, and even socks and underwear he wore when he committed the crime into the fire and burned them together.
He looked at the dancing flames, drank the liquor with straight eyes, and stood in a daze for nearly forty minutes......
The fire went out, and the surroundings became dark again. Jiang Guangnan didn't know whether he was choked with white wine or smoked, in short, he picked up a shovel with red eyes, and muttered while filling in the soil pit: "...... Two...... Second brother...... Don't blame me...... Today you have become a ghost...... I've also become a ghost...... Who the fuck is much better than who...... I'm a gun-wielding ...... You hate me...... It's no use hating me......!"
Five minutes later, the pit was completely buried, and Jiang Guangnan left the grave circle on a motorcycle. Half an hour later, Jiang Guangnan abandoned the motorcycle in a parking shed, because the crime tool itself was also stolen by him!
……
After everything was done, Jiang Guangnan took his backpack and took a taxi to the big warehouse behind the Fudu Hotel, and after smoking half a box of cigarettes, he heard a soft sound on the iron door outside.
"Brush!"
After Jiang Guangnan looked up at the door, he saw Brother Jiu walking in with his hands behind his back.
A few days ago, on the night when the second fat came home after prostitution and didn't see Jiang Guangnan, he also met with Brother Jiu here!
That night, Brother Jiu said a few words to Jiang Guangnan.
"You were the last to come, but why can you be on an equal footing with Xiao Xuan, He Wei, and Xiao Ze now?"
"There will never be a shortage of Jiang Guangnan in society, but you Jiang Guangnan lack a chance!"
After Jiang Guangnan heard these two sentences, he struggled in his heart for several days, until the moment before he stabbed the second brother's accomplice to death with a knife, he was still hesitating to do this. But in the end...... He still chose the desire hidden in his heart!
Today, the headlights of the warehouse are as dim as that night, but Jiang Guangnan, who is sitting on a chair at the moment, has a completely different mentality.
“…… Is it dead?" Brother Nine stepped forward and reached out and handed him another cigarette roll.
"I'm dead, I'll shoot me twice in the head alone!" Jiang Guang lowered his head and didn't take the cigarette roll handed over by Brother Jiu.
Brother Jiu stood in place, lowered his head and lit the cigarette with a lighter, only smoking quietly and not speaking.
“…… He's been with you for so long...... Don't you have any psychological fluctuations?" Jiang Guangnan raised his head suddenly, looked at Brother Jiu with red eyes and asked.
"Nini told me that she wanted to go to Bei J to find an opportunity after Shen Y finished school; my daughter-in-law told me, husband, my brother is waiting to take advantage of your market, and my father-in-law told me...... He's about to retreat, so I'm going to get ready...... Alas, and you children who follow me...... I always say, brother, give me some good work, I want to do it too. Brother Jiu hugged his shoulders, held a cigarette, and responded in a hoarse and steady voice: "When you are twenty years old, you want to keep everything you care about, but when you are over forty, you have to learn to make trade-offs." Because life will tell you a lot of things...... Actually, you can only choose one!"
Jiang Guangnan was silent when he heard this.
"Smack!"
Brother Jiu reached out and patted him on the shoulder, pointed to the door and said, "Let's go!"
When the words fell, there was the sound of empty footsteps in the dim hall, Jiang Guangnan looked at the ninth brother who had already walked to the door, and suddenly asked with a stammer: "I...... Am I ...... Not...... There's no going back!"
"......!" Brother Jiu was silent for a long time when he heard this, then turned around and responded with a smile: "Hehe, I don't have either!"
After speaking, Brother Jiu pushed open the roller shutter door and left, while Jiang Guangnan lowered his head and was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly his eyes were red and murmured: "But I regret it......!"
……
That night, Jiang Guangnan did not return to Xiao Ze and Er Fat, but went to a bath alone, standing alone under the empty shower head, and vigorously rubbing the dried blood spots on his body with a bath towel!
Again!
Twice!
“……!”
The blood was gone, and his body was clean, but Jiang Guangnan was still rubbing viciously, until his skin was rubbed red, and until he felt a hot pain, he sat on the ground with a pop, drenched motionless.
……
At night, Shen Tianze couldn't sleep at home all night, because he was waiting for news from Guan Lei, but it wasn't until it was close to the early hours of the morning that Guan Lei called him and told him that Xiao Guotao was killed, and it was very likely that Brother Jiu asked him to do it.
Early the next morning.
After Shen Tianze got up with a sallow face, the second fat asked shyly, "How much did you masturbate last night?"
"Stop!" Shen Tianze frowned and replied, then asked softly, "You will go to the company with me in a while!"
"What's wrong?" the second fat asked incomprehensibly, "What's the matter?"
"I want to ask Brother Jiu, how long will it take to pay the management fee collected by us, and by the way, I want to ask him if the second brother is still here!" Shen Tianze explained succinctly.
"What is the second brother doing here?"
", aren't you scolding him?!Now that this matter is over, shouldn't you be a junior?" Shen Tianze looked at Er Fat and persuaded him: "Let's talk about it again, we are also eating in a trough! He is friends with Brother Jiu, and you can't say anything about scolding him in front of so many people, so let's have a meal and communicate feelings!"
"I'm annoying him!" the second fat pouted and replied.
"I can't say it directly if I annoy him!"
“…… !" After thinking about it for a while, Er Fat could only respond helplessly: "Okay, let's go over and have a look later!"
"Well, let's go, go downstairs and have a bite to eat!" Shen Tianze nodded and greeted.
……
It was almost noon, in the office of Fudu Hotel.
"The market management fee, you can pay it every three months, you don't have to report it every month!" Brother Jiu sat behind the desk and joked with a smile: "Your manager is such a big official, I can't let you have no liquidity at hand!"
"Hehe, let me have a good time as a god of flowing water?" Shen Tianze grinned.
“…… Okay, don't talk nonsense with me, get out of here if it's okay, I have to go out in a while!" Brother Jiu waved his hand with a smile.
"Well, then let's go!" Shen Tianze nodded and stood up, and then pretended to take two steps out, then suddenly turned around and asked, "Hey, brother, is the second brother still here?"
When the words fell, Brother Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a normal face: "What are you looking for him?"
"He didn't tell you?"
"Say what?"
"Hey, my fat man and my second brother had a quarrel in the car that day...... I don't think the second brother seems to be happy, so we thought about inviting him to dinner, and talked about it in person, so that he wouldn't have an acquaintance with us children!" Shen Tianze pointed at the second fat and replied.
“…… Yes, I was a little excited that day!" the second fat nodded in agreement.
"You little cubs, now it's getting bigger and smaller!" After the ninth brother scolded, he responded with a steady expression: "The second brother has something to do these days, stay with Zixuan for the time being, and when he is done, you can find him again." ”
Shen Tianze was staring at Brother Jiu's expression at the moment, and a sense of fear that was difficult to be strict suddenly rose in his heart! Because he already knew that Xiao Guotao was dead, and it was very likely that Brother Jiu sent someone to deal with it internally, but Brother Jiu was too calm at the moment, so calm that it made people scared......
"Okay, you guys go back first!" Brother Jiu waved his hand.
"Hey, okay!" Shen Tianze nodded stiffly, then turned around and was about to walk out with the second fat.
"Bang dang!"
At this moment, the door of the office was pushed open by Duan Zixuan, and he obviously shouted in a panic: "Brother Jiu, ...... this morning!"
As soon as he was halfway through the conversation, Duan Zixuan saw that Xiao Ze and Er Fat were also there, so he immediately stopped talking.
"What's wrong, panicking?" Brother Jiu looked up and asked.
After Duan Zixuan heard this, he first glanced at Shen Tianze and Er Fat, and then did not answer.
“…… Brother, then let's go first!" Shen Tianze took the initiative to say after noticing Duan Zixuan's eyes.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, don't talk about it!" Brother Jiu frowned and urged a joke.
"As soon as I got up today, the Public Security Bureau called me to ......!" Duan Zixuan received the acquiescence of the ninth brother before he responded with a pale face: "Second brother had an accident in the greenhouse last night......!"
When the words fell, everyone in the room was stunned.
……
On the other side, in the Santana sedan at the Sanxin construction site, He Wei reached out and handed Binbin a bulging cowhide envelope, and instructed with a frown: "Give him the money and let him control his mouth for me!"
P.S.: Tonight's New Year's Eve, there is a change at 12 o'clock, I wish you all a happy New Year's Eve!
