readx; "Hey Rain and Jay are coming? Are they intended to be together? ”

"No, just by chance. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info probably thought of a piece, right? ”

"How are they doing now?"

"Jay Lun went to work, in a restaurant in Chong (Qing), it seems that he is learning to be a cook, Xiyu has not worked yet, he said it in the letter is not very clear, it may be a stall."

Xu Yunjian smacked his lips regretfully and lit his cigarette, "Happy rain, people are very good and righteous, but the surname is Taiye, and he almost fought with Zhuang Xiaoyong for the matter of Qiang Yingmei, do you remember?" Later, I almost beat the second egg, didn't I? ”

"Maybe it's because you're from the Northwest, right? I've also heard that the surname of the person over there is Zino. If you say that you have turned it over, you will copy the guy. ”

Lu Li shook his head, "Anyway, Xiyu is coming, if he doesn't say anything, we won't say anything, and we can live as long as we want - I will ask my second sister to apply for a temporary residence permit for him and rest in this house." ”

"It's even night for us." Zhang Qing grinned and said, "Why don't you pay him a salary too?" ”

"Less nonsense! People are friends, come and see us, what do you think? ”

Seeing that his face was slightly gloomy, several people stopped giggling, "So, what's going on with Jay?" ”

"How do I know? Just to see everyone? Don't say so much, we'll know when the two of them come. ”

After a week, Jay Chou walked out of the train station and hugged Lu Li big, "Haha! It's been a long time! ”

Luli patted him on the back, and the two of them separated, "How are you?" It's been a few days this time, right? ”

"Isn't it? Two days and two nights, I'm exhausted! Let's go? At this point, it's your land, don't you let your buddy sleep on the street, right? ”

"Let's wait a little longer, you may not know, Xiyu also sent a letter, which happened to arrive on the same day as you, that is, a few hours later than your train."

Jay Chou was overjoyed, "Really? Oh, this turtle son, since we were separated in the merchant forest, I haven't been in touch for a long time, and after I came back, I wrote to him, and he didn't reply, a turtle son. ”

Lu Li listened to it funny, "Hey, you didn't say it very clearly in your letter, what are you doing in Chongqing (Qing) now?" How many days can you stay this time? ”

"Just for a week, right?" Jay Chou said: "My mother contacted me, working in a restaurant, which is considered a national unit, but now I am still doing chores, and I am ...... on the pier, don't you understand?" It is to cut the vegetables in advance, what radishes, cucumbers, peppers, onions, tomatoes, what should be cut, and when the guests are coming, they are responsible for the side dishes - that is, the ingredients needed for each dish are prepared, such as fish-flavored shredded pork, there must be shredded carrots, shredded meat, shredded red peppers, shredded ginger and so on, put them on a plate, and wait for the master to put them in the pot. ”

Luli was overjoyed to hear this, and laughed vigorously, "That's all?" It's nothing, it's much easier than working in the countryside, and there is a salary of more than 30 yuan a month, which is good, not bad. ”

"Not bad, ghost! Xiao Lu, don't you know, there are no idlers in the kitchen, really, if you have time to sit down with those ladies to pick vegetables, even if it is an easy job! My wrists, and those with knives, have tenosynovitis. Jay Chou smiled bitterly and said, "Hey, what are you doing now?" ”

"I, let's talk together when the rain comes."

"What, so mysterious?"

The two of them were gossiping at the train station, waiting for more than an hour, the train from Xi (An) entered the station, and the passengers with large bags and small bags walked out of the station gate - in this era, business trips to other places are for official business, because of private affairs, there are very few people who go out, and after less than five minutes, the flow of people began to sparse, but there was no Wang Xiyu, "What's the matter, did he say that he arrived today?" ”

"Yes, the last time he wrote to me, he said it was for today's train, is there something delayed? Let's go in and have a look? ”

"Let's go." The two of them walked forward, and a person suddenly flashed on the side of the road, covered in rags, with dirty hair in locks, and a pungent smell rushed straight to the nasal tube, "Xiao Lu, Xiao Zhou?" ”

The two of them stopped in amazement, looked at this guy, and smiled at them, "Gua Wazi, don't you recognize it?" ”

"Happy rain? You...... How did you become such an unlucky virtue now? ”

"Don't mention it! The goose came by train pulling coal! Is there anything to eat? Starved geese. ”

"Not now, let's go, I'll ...... first Take you back, you ......" Lu Li looked him up and down, frowning, "Lao Wang, how did you get this?" Don't even have the money to buy a train ticket? ”

"Don't say so much, take me to dinner first, I haven't eaten in three days. Starved to death. ”

The three of them got on the No. 24 bus, and Lu Zhou and the two were just two, but Wang Xiyu was tired of the white eyes of the driver and the conductor, and finally listened to Lu Li speak with a Tian (Tianjin) accent, so it was not good to say anything; The three of them sat down at Quanyechang Station and got out of the car like rats crossing the street, "Xiao Lu, where are you taking us?" ”

"Come with me, don't worry, I won't hurt you." Lu Li led the way in front and led the two people straight to the destination, and when they arrived at the location, Jay Chou didn't care, Wang Xiyu was really scared: Mother, it's facing the gate of the Public Security Bureau! Luley wouldn't be trying to send himself in, would he? For a while, his face turned pale, but fortunately, he was covered with cinders and dust, but he couldn't see it.

"Huh? Old Zhou? Xu Yunjian laughed, put down his business and greeted him, and hugged Jay Chou big, they are old friends with each other, and there is no need to mention much affection, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, didn't you say that there is still joyful rain?" What about people? He didn't come? ”

Lu Li pushed Wang Xiyu forward, "Who said he didn't come, isn't it?" ”

Zhang Qing and Xu Yunjian looked at each other seriously, and then recognized him, "Hey, Wang, what's wrong with you?" How...... Mixed up with this unlucky virtue? ”

"That, Xu Yunjian, you go to Liaoning Road first, find a restaurant to order a few dishes for Xiyu, and add a pound of rice, he hasn't eaten for a few days - Lao Zhou, how are you?"

"I'm fine, I'm just a little thirsty." Jay Chou said with a smile: "Hey, what are you guys...... It's self-employed, right? What are you doing now? ”

"Yes." Lu Li nodded, "Zhang Qing, you take the old man around, take whatever you like, and I'll say a few words to Xiyu." ”

From Wang Xiyu's fleeing look, several people could guess some clues, knowing that he might have encountered something, so he nodded as if he didn't know, and he and Wang Xiyu entered the house, "Xiyu, you bear with it first, I'll let Xu Yunjian buy you vegetables, you eat first when you come back, and take you and Jay Lun to take a bath after eating - coming to me, it's the same as going home, don't think about anything else, just put your heart in your stomach." We're buddies, I won't hide it from you, in the past six months, I've made some money, and it's not a problem to feed a big living person! ”

"Little Lu...... Dude...... Thank you! ”

"You're welcome. By the way, what the hell is going on? ”

"Dude's got a big deal!"

"Oh?"

Wang Xiyu sighed, and spoke in a low voice.

He went back to the city in the middle of 78 years, returned to Xi (An), handled the household registration, and then came work problems; Wang's father works in the Civic (Political) Bureau, and according to the principle of substitution, Wang Xiyu can go to work smoothly, but he gave this opportunity to his sister; In his words, it's really not interesting to do the work of one of the 'eight members', what does it look like to be a big guy and sit in the office all day? I have hands and feet, can I still starve to death?

The husband and wife of the Wang family thought about it reasonably, so they obeyed their son's opinion; I don't want to go back to the city with more and more people, and it becomes more and more difficult to find a job, and the second elder of the Wang family is an honest man with no power and no power, and it is not at all a way to go through the back door and find a way.

It was postponed until the Spring Festival of 79, Wang Xiyu still had no job, so he had to eat the old man at home, which made the man in his early twenties feel extremely embarrassed, as if he couldn't raise his head in front of his family, so he became one of the unemployed young people who wandered in the city. This kind of life is very bad, not only will you feel that no one cares about it, but in reality, it is easy to make friends with a group of people with the same background and the same circumstances, Wang Xiyu is like this.

The next thing is relatively simple, eleven or twelve young people gathered together, sighed at each other for their life encounters, and over time, the feelings were deep, and they could speak without scruples, speaking of this hopeless life, everyone developed from the initial sigh to resentment!

Sitting at the base of the West (An) city wall, the March sun shone on the body, several people smoked and chatted, "My brother and their unit is fine, good guy, during the New Year, a worker gave thirteen catties of hairtail!" One of the guys, surnamed Tang, said, "Tell me, is there any reason for this?" We don't even have a job, and they give out more than ten catties just with fish? ”

"What unit, so good?"

"Lock the factory." Tang introduced a certain person, "There are more than 800 employees in this unit, and the workers who have just entered the factory can get more than 30 yuan a month. My brother...... That's pretty awesome! ”

"What do they do?"

"Who knows, it's a lock anyway."

"Why don't you get them?" Wang Xiyu suddenly became interested, "How is it?" Let's get some money to spend? ”

"What do you want to do?"

"I didn't say it, I'll go in first tomorrow to take a look, I've chosen, and I'll get off at night!"

There was also a timid one among the people, who said timidly: "This, I'm afraid it's a crime, right?" ”

"What law is broken? We just want to eat, what kind of law do we break? The Communist Party will not let the people starve to death! Afraid of what? ”

Wang Xiyu was bold and led more than a dozen people to push a tricycle, and swaggered to steal more than 300 catties of scrap metal from the yard where the scrap was piled up in this unit! When you go out, don't forget to say hello to the doorman with a smile! Sell the scrap metal, everyone has a big meal, and the rest of the money is evenly distributed, and Wang Xiyu has more than 20 yuan in hand! This is really earned with both hands, Wang Xiyu is overjoyed, and consciously found a good way to make a fortune.

In the nearly three months since then, this theft gang has committed many crimes, and even pulled Tang someone's brother in, the other party is a sub-team leader in the stamping workshop, his wife has been four or five months pregnant, and always wants to eat some nutritious products, but with his little salary, he can't make ends meet at all, and he encouraged his younger brother and Wang Xiyu to resist, so he went into the water.

In three months, more than two tons of scrap metal were stolen from the machinery factory, worth more than 10,000 yuan! That's not all, Wang Xiyu is getting bolder and bolder, and the scrap steel is no longer eye-catching, so he hits the idea on the copper used in the stamping workshop. This kind of thing is more valuable than steel, and he has seen in the workshop accompanied by Tang that the complete copper material is processed and used by the punch press to become a trough of copper beans, and then transported to the assembly workshop and put in the lock cylinder - this is a good thing, and the weight is large, and the value is higher; The best thing is that no one will pay attention to whether it is much less at all, and moreover, it is much more convenient to transport!

So I negotiated with someone Tang and asked the other party to pack a lunch box with rice every day, wait for a week, and then sell it centrally. Tang also thinks this is a good idea, after all, compared to transporting scrap steel with a tricycle, no one will doubt what is hidden in the lunch box in someone else's tanning school bag, right? So several people joined forces to cooperate in the case, and the business was very prosperous!

But after being a thief for a long time, it is inevitable that people will find out, the matter is due to an accident, as the internal response of the soup someone once with them to sell, they found a local waste recycling station, waiting for the weighing, the waste recycling station staff heard the conversation between the two people, "It's not good lately." ”

"Why?"

"My mother-in-law is going to give birth."

This sentence later became an important clue to solve the case, and when the payment was settled, the police occasionally came to the scrap collection station to do an inspection - this kind of thing was common in those days, for no other reason, the scrap recycling station was a place where many thieves sold their stolen goods. When the police arrived, they found the copper in the sack, which was used to match the lock cylinder, and took it in his hand, like a handful of golden beans, heavy and beautiful!

But in the eyes of the police, this is not just as simple as looking good, ask the experience, the other party has neither a letter of introduction, nor relevant supporting documents, and even does not know the name, so they know that there is a problem, one by one visited a circle, and soon found the root cause in the lock factory, "That's right, we produce it here." ”

The next thing is to find the perpetrator through the sentence 'Aunt is going to give birth', first through the factory, find the conference room for people who may be in contact with these things, stand in line, and then call the staff of the scrap recycling station, the captain of the criminal police handed him a cigarette, "Don't be afraid, light a cigarette and go in, see that it is him, put out the cigarette in front of him, and then you come out, you don't have to worry about the bottom of the matter, understand?" ”

"Understood, understood." The staff member went in and walked around, but did nothing, turned around and walked out.

"What's going on? No? ”

"This ...... I didn't recognize, but I saw a man who looked like him. ”

The captain of the criminal police raised his hand and slapped him! M Nima! Why don't you move when you see it? Which is it? ”

"Yes...... It's the fourth one in the right row. ”

"Get in, bring him out!"

Tang was arrested, at first he wanted to resist for a few days, and after receiving two electric batons, he confessed truthfully like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, which attracted the attention of the local police, more than four people even if the gang committed the crime, the surname quality has also escalated, as for how much money they have stolen in total, it is not a problem, wait until the person is arrested, and you will know as soon as you ask.

Wang Xiyu heard Tang someone's younger brother say that his brother was arrested, and he knew that the matter was exposed: what kind of man must be to withstand the torture of electric batons? Needless to mention other more deterrent methods of coercion? Gotta run away!

According to the confession, when the police arrived at Wang's house, they were one step late, and he had already disappeared without a trace! In order to worry that his parents would leak his mouth, Wang Xiyu didn't even tell his parents, so he arrived at the train station in a hurry, bought a ticket casually, and left! (To be continued.) )
