Chapter 220: Another shot that was pinched and not broadcast
There is a saying that is widely spread among the citizens of Sanshan - the nightlife of Sanshan City began with the "Godfather" nightclub.
As the first real nightclub in Sanshan City, the "Godfather" nightclub has existed in the city for nearly 20 years.
From a small underground dance hall to today's huge independent building covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters, its history can even be said to be the history of the city.
Although there are some special entertainment items that play side balls, as the well-deserved leader of the nightclub in Sanshan City, the "Godfather" nightclub is quite formal on the whole, after all, with its fame and status, there is no need to engage in those messy projects to attract customers.
Because of this, every night, the "Godfather" nightclub always gathers celebrities, luxury cars, with the retro neon signs and faΓ§ade decoration, which makes people feel like they are in the bright lights of Shanghai during the Republic of China.
Li Mengnan got out of the taxi, looked up and saw the huge hand-painted poster that was almost five or six meters high next to the main entrance, "Sincerely invite the famous domestic magic master Situ Jun to come to perform" Several neat art style characters are impressive, and the faces of the characters are slightly distorted due to the unique retro painting style, but the strong nostalgic meaning makes people feel extremely cordial.
Li Mengnan still remembers that when he was very young, the posters in the cinema were all hand-drawn by people one by one, because the level of the painters was uneven, and the posters of each cinema were also very different, and if you didn't look at the name of the movie, there was no way to recognize from the poster whether it was the same movie or not, and sometimes there would be a lot of fun.
It's a pity that later with the development of science and technology, large-area color spray painting gradually became popular, and this kind of pure hand-painted huge poster can no longer be seen.
The chef also knows how to go to the restaurant, and Li Mengnan is not conceited enough to think that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, and he is still very interested in the performances of domestic magicians.
However, judging from the time on the poster, the magic show is only two on Friday and Saturday nights, and today is only Thursday, so it seems that he has no chance to see it, and he can only roughly infer the content of the performance from the name of the program on the poster.
Li Mengnan took out an invitation ticket and was about to go inside, when suddenly he seemed to kick a hard object under his feet, and bent down to pick it up but found that it was a mobile phone.
It's a feature phone that's not very common these days, with a scratched shell, a somewhat cracked screen, and a few faint footprints stacked on it, apparently having been trampled on many times.
Li Mengnan will not deliberately do good deeds, but he is still quite enthusiastic about such a gesture of effort.
Picking up the phone and opening the address book, Li Mengnan wanted to see if there was a way to contact the owner, but suddenly found that there was a very familiar name in the address book of this mobile phone.
Qing Pei.
Strange, isn't this Qingche's little Lori's drunkard father?
Li Mengnan didn't think that this would be a duplicate name, after all, the surname Qing was very rare, and judging from the mobile phone number, the combination of numbers was very similar to Qingche's number, and it was obviously a serial number handled at the same time.
In addition to this Qing Pei in the address book, there was no useful discovery, so Li Mengnan had to open the text message box.
There are not many text messages in the SMS box, but the most obvious is the deposit balance change information sent by several banks, which shows that the owner received a transfer of more than 1.8 million yuan at noon today, but then it was shortened twice, once 300,000 and once 1.5 million.
Seeing these bank text messages, Li Mengnan instantly guessed who the owner of this mobile phone was.
Miton.
When he called Gou Buli at noon to ask about the house, Gou Buli once said that the 300,000 yuan that Mitong would owe to their company had been paid off, which should be the first expenditure on the text message.
As for why Mitong took away 1.5 million at one time, Li Mengnan couldn't figure it out, but his intuition might be related to Mitong's runaway mentioned by Gou Buli.
However, Mitong's mobile phone will appear here but he is very incomprehensible, even if Mitong suddenly makes a windfall, and plans to change to a new mobile phone, at least the original calling card should be retained, and the mobile phone should be thrown away together with the calling card, which is not in line with the practice of normal people.
Li Mengnan inadvertently pressed the redial button when exiting the text message box, but suddenly found that the number displayed on the screen was actually - 110!
Call the police? Before Mitong dropped this mobile phone, he was actually calling the police? Is something going on?
Li Mengnan immediately checked the call records and found that the last and only call to the police was actually made at half past seven, that is, five minutes ago.
Connecting the previous clues, Li Mengnan quickly restored a picture in his mind.
After Mitong obtained 1.8 million yuan in compensation for demolition, he repaid 300,000 yuan from Jindu Company, took out the remaining 1.5 million yuan and took it with him, and went to the train station to buy a ticket and prepare to leave Sanshan City.
But the train departed in the evening, so he had to stay in the city for a while, and after dinner he was about to leave by train, not wanting to run away in some kind of danger.
When he fled to the "Godfather" nightclub, he thought that he might not be able to escape, and took out his mobile phone to call the police.
Save? Or not save?
That's a problem.
In all fairness, since the moment when Mitong ignored Xiao Baoer's life and death and collaborated with Jindu Company to make a fake contract to snatch the demolition compensation, in Li Mengnan's heart, this person has nothing to do with the Xiao family, and whether he lives or dies naturally has nothing to do with him.
But Minnie's last reactions made him hesitate somewhat, Mi Tong was a stranger with no blood relationship with him, but for Minnie Mouse and Xiao Bao'er, no matter what Mi Tong did to madness, that layer of blood and family relationship could never be broken.
Li Mengnan only hesitated for a moment, and then immediately set off to look around.
In the end, he decided to save Mi Tong once, even if Mi Tong's existence was only a symbolic meaning of a "father", he also hoped that Minnie Mouse and Xiao Baoer could have a nominally "complete" home.
Because he has never had it, Li Mengnan can best understand the bitterness and pain of not having parents.
Five minutes, not too long, not too short.
If there are no obstacles, it is enough for one person to run more than a kilometer in a straight line.
After all, this is a bustling downtown area, not an endless empty wilderness, and the corners within a radius of one kilometer add up, and there are no less than tens of thousands of places to hide from people, not to mention that he is the only one, even if a special police search team is dispatched, he may not be able to find Mi Tong in a short time.
The actual situation was exactly the same as Li Mengnan expected, with the "Godfather" nightclub as the center, and wandering around the surrounding passages and alleys for more than half an hour, he did not find any traces or clues of Mitong, but ran into a few young couples fighting passionately in the shadows.
(Another scene that has not been broadcast: a man and a woman are wheezing and moaning in the dark corner between the two floors, and a pair of bright eyes are quietly poking out from the corner on the other side, and the man who is shaking hard behind the woman unintentionally turned his head and was suddenly startled, and shouted: What are you doing? Li Mengnan immediately pretended to untie his trouser belt, and said with surprise on his face: This is ...... Can it really be? οΌ
After being tossed by this for a long time and no result, Li Mengnan also lost the interest of going to the nightclub to "observe", and saw that it was getting late, so he decided to go back to school first, otherwise he would have closed the building after ten o'clock.
Just as he was returning the same way, passing the side door of the "Godfather" nightclub, a young man in his twenties suddenly pushed the door through it and walked out quickly, almost hitting him.
The young man didn't mean to apologize at all, but patted the place where he collided with Li Mengnan, with a look of disgust on his face.
I rub! Wearing Armani is amazing? Brother has amoeba protozoa on him or what?
Li Mengnan hates this kind of person the most, as if the whole world is a source of pollution, as if he is the cleanest.
Brother is not your father, why do you have to get used to your stinky problem?
Li Mengnan immediately covered his chest, pretending to be tired and injured, sneezing and coughing, and spitting at the young man.
"! You're looking for death, aren't you? β
The young man was suddenly disgusted by Li Mengnan, and he was about to slap him directly, but he didn't know what he remembered, he raised half of his hand and suddenly put it down, took out his wallet and took out more than 1,000 yuan, smashed it on Li Mengnan casually, waved his hand and said, "Get out!" Hurry up and get the money to see a doctor, Young Master Ben is in a good mood today, and he is too lazy to worry about you as a sick ghost! β
After that, he turned around and shouted to the door behind him: "Ah Qiang, hurry up, let's go!" It's so slow to lift someone! β
A burly man in black then stepped out of the side door, carrying a scantily clad young girl on his shoulder.
The girl seemed to have drunk a lot of wine, her long hair hanging low like a dead fish on the shoulders of the strong man, and there was hardly any resistance except for the occasional few muffled words that she did not understand at all.
No wonder I was in such a hurry to leave, it turned out that I had picked up a "corpse".
Li Mengnan once heard that in front of bars or nightclubs in big cities, there are often so-called "corpse pickers", these men do not hunt for beauty in person, but just wait for those drunk women like rabbits, and then directly carry them to the hotel like "corpses" to open rooms and do some love things.
Although many people are condemning the behavior of these "corpse pickers", Li Mengnan feels that these people are actually quite gentlemen - they can't let a drunk woman sleep alone on the street, right? As for the things that I love to do after opening a house, I just get back some of the rewards I deserve, and there is no need to stand on the moral high ground to criticize others.
What's more, since a single woman dares to get drunk, it means that she is not afraid of being "picked up", and the parties don't think so, which is the urgency of what you are following?
Li Mengnan originally planned to see what the girl who was "picked up" looked like and left directly, but he didn't want to just glance at it casually and find that the clothes on the girl's body were extremely familiar.
This is not Leyouyou's "old enemy" Zhuang Jia!
Strange, isn't she supposed to be with that little white-faced Jinkora? How could you be alone in such a place? And someone picked up the "corpse"?
At this moment, the strong man in black threw Zhuang Jia, who was unconscious, into the back seat of a black Cadillac, and then the young man also sat in.
The more Li Mengnan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he stopped in front of the car directly.
The car that had just started immediately stopped in place with a sudden brake, and the sudden sensation made the young man in the back seat almost hit his head, and immediately said unhappily: "Ah Qiang, how did you drive?" β
"Young master, someone stopped the car." The strong man in black said truthfully.
"! What the hell! The young man saw through the front windshield that it was Li Mengnan again, and he was immediately angry, lowered the window and poked his head out, and scolded: "Do you want to die?" Get out of the way! β
"What if I don't let it?" Li Mengnan didn't take the young man's threat seriously.
"! Boy, you've got a kind! It's been a long time since I've met someone who dares to argue with me......" The young man laughed angrily, and then directly ordered the strong man in front of him: "Ah Qiang, just hit it!" If you can't die once, you will come back and crush him! It's just a matter of hundreds of thousands, and Young Master Ben can afford to pay it! β
It was obviously not the first time that the strong man in black had done such a thing, and without the slightest hesitation when he heard the order, he immediately put up the gear and increased the throttle.
Bang!
The sound of a heavy object being slammed could be heard in front of the front of the car, but the car only pushed forward for a moment before coming to a stop again.
And Li Mengnan was still standing in front of the car, looking at the two people in the car with a smile.
The young man slapped the back of the head of the strong man in black, and said angrily: "! Cuong: What are you doing? I told you to crash over, why did you stop again? Do you want to do it anymore? β
"Young master, it's none of my business! I don't know why something went wrong with the car, the engine is still spinning, but it just doesn't move when you step on the accelerator! Believe it or not! β
The strong man in black defended himself aggrievedly, and gave up half of his position for the young man to look at his feet, and sure enough, no matter how he stepped on the accelerator, the car did not react.
"I bought a watch last year! What a broken car! The young man scolded and kicked the car door, walked to the front of the car, frowned and stared at Li Mengnan and said, "Boy, what do you want to do?" I don't think I just lost enough money to you, right? Give you another thousand, hurry up and give me a roll! No matter how greedy you are, don't blame me for being rude! β
As he spoke, another red ticket was smashed.
Li Mengnan smiled, sat on the front of the car with one foot, stepped on the bumper with one foot, lifted Erlang's leg with the other, took out a cigarette and lit it in his mouth.
"What does it feel like to hit someone with money? To be honest, I haven't really tried it, but it looks pretty cool......"
As soon as the words fell, a stack of rice dollars almost as thick as a brick suddenly appeared out of thin air in Li Mengnan's hand, and slapped it on the young man's head.
"Let you tm and smash me with money! It's amazing to be rich! I hate it when someone hits me with money! And you're a little more smashed! Twelve thousand, you look down on people too much! β
Although the banknotes are paper products, they can't hold a lot of them! And what is even more immoral is that Li Mengnan did not shoot flat, but stood up the money and smashed it with the side of the banknote, and the hard and solid Cheng dΓΉ was no different from the brick, and the young man was smashed all over his face in two or three strokes.
"Young Master!"
No one expected that Li Mengnan was still laughing just now, and suddenly he would burst out and hurt people without warning.
The strong man in black in the driver's seat was suddenly shocked, and he got up and was about to rush out of the protector, but suddenly found that the car door next to him seemed to be stuck by something, and he couldn't open it no matter how hard he tried.
"You stay honest inside first, and then talk about your business when I finish cleaning up your young master."
Li Mengnan glanced at the strong man in black lightly, and then continued to play his game of "smashing money".
"Young Master! Master! Is there anyone? Come and save people! β
Seeing that his young master was beaten by this thug who came out of nowhere, and saw that he only had air out but no air intake, the strong man in black was so anxious that he was sweating down, and while calling the police, he desperately smashed the car window to ask for help.
But what he never imagined was that although there were many people passing by, they didn't seem to be aware of what was happening here.
No, to be precise, he felt as if there was an invisible force that completely separated him from the outside world, he could see the qiΔ around him, but others could not see him.
This...... What's going on?
The strong man in black suddenly felt an inexplicable chill rise behind him, no matter how big the air conditioner in the car was, it couldn't eliminate this chill from the bottom of his heart.
The young man outside the car has been smashed by Li Mengnan to the point that he can't see his human appearance, and his originally handsome face is completely swollen into a pig's head.
"Not to mention, it's really much cooler to smash people with money than bricks......" Li Mengnan nodded with satisfaction, threw aside the large stack of rice yuan in his hand like garbage, grabbed the young man's collar and lifted it in front of him, blew a puff of second-hand smoke on his face, and said: "The matter of you letting people drive into me is settled, let's talk about another thing...... What's up with the girl in the back of your car? β
She ...... If I drank too much, I let Ah ...... Cuong carried her out and gave her ...... ...... home."
The young man looked at Li Mengnan as if he was looking at a devil at this moment, and he didn't know whether Li Mengnan was trying to throw money, or crashing the car, or the girl behind the car who had poisoned him, so he was trembling and cautious when he answered.
"Home? Are you that kind? Li Mengnan knocked him on the head, and the young man immediately screamed reflexively, "Let me ask you, that little white face...... Oh, where's the boy who was with this girl? β
