I looked at him and slapped him in the face, "Is this your talk?! ”

The child covered his mouth and looked at me hatefully.

"Don't talk, it's right for my brother to beat my brother!" Ah Zheng said firmly.

"Get out!" I shoved Ah Zheng and pushed him straight against the wall near the mouth of the sewer.

"Disband the Three Wolves, now, immediately, immediately!" I gritted my teeth.

"I'm sorry......" Ah Zheng looked at me, "I can't ......"

There was footsteps behind him.

Xiao Yu walked over and took my hand off Ah Zheng's collar.

"Ah Zheng, can you tell me why?" Xiao Yu said slowly.

"Because ......" Ah Zheng had just spoken, and I felt that it was pitch black in front of me, and my brain seemed to be unconscious, and my whole body fell backwards.

"Brother Ming, how are you!" Ah Zheng's voice became farther and farther away, and I only felt that a group of people were surrounding me, carrying me hand and foot, and I didn't know where to go.

That's where my memory came to an abrupt end.

When I woke up again, I was lying in my own bed.

I looked at Ah Zheng leaning on the peach tree in front of me, and I couldn't tell what it was like, but after the alcohol subsided, there was no longer the same anger as yesterday, but chagrin and grief.

"Go back and disband the Three Wolves Society, and stop doing those things." I said lightly.

Ah Zheng didn't speak, biting his lip, some redness and swelling could be seen on his face, but it was not serious, he should have been beaten by me.

"What? Don't want to? I sneered and said, "Can't bear to watch the organization you created collapse?" ”

"No......" Ah Zheng's eyes widened: "No......"

I continued to sneer as he tried to discern something.

Ah Zheng was still biting his lip, as if he was enduring something.

"You mean." I got a little impatient.

"After you leave......" Ah Zheng finally spoke: "Sure enough, as expected by Uncle Shrimp and Uncle Chao, although the Four King Kongs were disbanded, many small gangs poured out inexplicably, taking the opportunity to develop their own forces. ”

"And then?" I softened a little.

"Many of my classmates have been forced to join their messy gangs, intriguing and fighting all day long, and X County is even more chaotic than during the Four King Kong periods......"

I was shocked, "Why have I never heard of these things?" ”

"First, you've left County X. Second, these gangs have not yet become a big climate, and in the eyes of some people, they are just small fights between children. But I know that when the big fish eats the small fish, the final winner, that is, a brand new Four King Kongs, will be born......"

"So what?" I moved two chairs from the yard, and the two of us sat under a peach tree, with hundreds of thumb-sized hairy peaches above our heads, hidden under thousands of green leaves.

"I remember you saying it on the tennis court." Ah Zheng's hand touched the peach tree: "If there is a new gang in X County, then come one, kill one, come two, kill a pair!" ”

I don't remember saying that, but it should mean the same thing.

Ah Zheng continued: "When my classmates told me about everything that happened in X County recently, I called you anxiously, only to learn that you had gone to No. 1 Middle School. I don't have any contact information from you, I want to organize some people to fight against these small gangs that have not yet become a climate, but I have no influence at all, and no one will listen to what I say......"

"So you came up with the idea of pretending to be me and Jin Ren Jin Yi to form the Three Wolves Association?"

Ah Zheng nodded: "Yes." I think I'm just like you, the kind of person who is jealous and hateful, and I don't have your permission, but I think if you were there, I would have done the same. ”

I shook my head, but that didn't stop him from continuing.

"Many people know that I have a good relationship with you, so if I stand up and tell everyone that this Three Wolves Association was organized by Zhou Ming and Jin Ren and Jin Yi, there will be no disbelief in everyone. Therefore, in a short period of time, the Three Wolves Association has become the emerging force with the largest number of people in recent times. ”

I felt my anger rising little by little: "You mean, the purpose of your formation of the Three Wolves Society is simply to fight against the small gangs that are trying to grow their power? Rather, it is a merit? The tone is not without sarcasm!

Unexpectedly, Ah Zheng nodded: "Yes, although the Three Wolves Association is currently very powerful, it is very low-key, and many people have not even heard of it." Because I know you don't like to engage in this stuff. ”

I remembered that when I was at Qin Jie's house, I had asked those girls about the Three Wolves Society, and everyone really didn't know. But this can't be an excuse for Ah Zheng to do something wrong!

I stood up and pointed to his nose: "Don't talk about yourself as high-sounding, you organized people to steal things everywhere, fight, and collect protection money everywhere, and you have become a good deed?" ”

Ah Zheng lowered his head, as if I said to the sore spot: "It turns out that you really heard those things word for word." ”

I raised my hand and tried to slap him, but it stopped in mid-air, and I couldn't do anything.

"Brother Ming." Ah Zheng raised his head, "You are a real hero, just a little bit of a woman's kindness." ”

Enraged, I grabbed him by the collar and pressed him against the peach tree, "Believe it or not, I'm going to kill you right now!" ”

"Mingming, what are you doing!" Mom came out of the yard at some point.

I let go of Ah Zheng and said lightly, "It's okay, Mom, you can go in first." ”

"Auntie, Brother Ming is joking with me. Ah Zheng also said.

"If you have something to say, don't quarrel!" Mom said in a harsh tone.

I nodded, and Mom went back again.

"Sometimes." Ah Zheng's tone was calm: "Extraordinary things have to be solved by extraordinary means." ”

I suddenly felt that the Ah Zheng in front of me was unfamiliar, and it was not the child who would cry after being blackmailed by Junko, nor was it the person who would call me in the supermarket and cry and beg me for help.

Perhaps, Junko was right when he said that he was never an honest child.

I turned my back and said to him in a very cold tone, "If you insist on refusing to dissolve the Three Wolves, then be ready to accept my challenge." ”

Ah Zheng didn't speak, and walked silently in front of me.

"Brother Ming......"

I closed my eyes: "I don't have a brother like you. ”

Ah Zheng sighed: "Brother Ming, are you willing to go with me?" ”

I sneered and said, "Why, are you going to kill me before I attack you?" ”

Ah Zheng shook his head: "Brother Ming, with your courage and strategy, you won't dare to go with me, right?" ”

Wearing such a big hat, plus the agitation, I can't go if I don't want to.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Some things are useless to say, you need to see them with your own eyes."

I said something to my mother and followed Ah Zheng.

A month ago, Ah Zheng called me brother and only dared to follow my ass.

A month later, Ah Zheng still called me brother, but I followed his ass.

This shift made me feel a little funny, and I unconsciously took two steps forward and stood next to him, not behind.

The two of us didn't say anything until we walked into a neighborhood, and I finally couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?" ”

"My home." Ah Zheng is concise and to the point, and he really has the taste of a boss.

I entered a unit door and went straight to the cold basement.

"What is this?" I couldn't help but ask.

Ah Zheng opened the door of one of the basements, and inside were two large black plastic bags, bulging inside.

"What they stole from supermarkets, shopping malls, and kiosks."

"What do you mean by showing me this?"

Ah Zheng still didn't speak, picked up two plastic bags, locked the basement door, and walked out again.

Do you want to sell the stolen goods? I knew that even if I asked, Ah Zheng didn't say anything, so I pretended not to care and walked beside him. But I was worried that a bunch of police officers would suddenly surround me and arrest me as an accomplice.

The early morning in X County is already deserted, and it is a weekend, and there are even fewer people on the street.

The cold wind poured in from my shirt and swam against my skin.

Ah Zheng, who was standing next to him, still had a resolute expression on his face, as if nothing could be moved by him.

I suddenly realized that we were headed in the same direction as the old middle school.

What is he going to do? Do you want to show me the sawn fences on the playground?

Ah Zheng's pace is not fast, but it is very firm, and every step down, as if he has exhausted all his strength.

I followed him and felt a kind of trance pressure.

The gate of the old middle school has appeared in front of us, next to the playground covered with yellow sand.

Ah Zheng stood at the door and looked, but instead of turning into the playground, he went directly into the campus.

What is he doing in here? I followed closely with two steps.

The campus of the old middle school has long since lost its former prosperity, unknown weeds breed in every corner, and there are large swaths of birds overhead running through the empty school buildings.

The dilapidated school building, like a huge monster, stands here lonely and lonely due to old age and decay, without the slightest life, but it was once one of the landmark buildings of X County.

This is already a veritable dangerous building, and no one usually approaches it at all, but I am afraid that it will suddenly collapse one day.

Standing on the grassy campus, Ah Zheng looked up and walked towards one of the classrooms.

- Could it be that this is also one of their dens?

Ah Zheng still had the same dead man's expression, and I squinted at him, not understanding what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Approaching the abandoned classroom, I suddenly realized that it was a little different from the others.

First, the glass in the windows of this classroom was intact, and the windows were so bright that someone must have cleaned them regularly.

This is an impossible miracle in an old middle school that has been abandoned for several years!

Second, a chimney peeked out of one of the windows, and the exposed part was pitch black, which is the result of years of smoke.

Judging by these two points from the outside, there are people living here!

Who is going to live here in such a dangerous building that everyone knows all over the world?

Ah Zheng was familiar with the way, and walked straight towards the classroom where the people lived.

I followed him and gradually heard the sound of a group of children frolicking in the classroom.

In such a quiet, barren campus, these voices are really creepy!

Walking to the door, Ah Zheng put down the two plastic bags and gently pushed the door open.

"Brother Ah Zheng is here......"

More than a dozen children suddenly rushed over, both male and female, the oldest of whom looked no more than ten years old, and the youngest who was only four or five years old!

"Brother Ah Zheng brought us something good?" A child with a dirty face but a flushed face hugged Ah Zheng's leg and said expectantly.

Such a group of children, surrounded by Ah Zheng, all raised their heads and looked at Ah Zheng with longing on their faces.

Each of them had a dirty face, as if it had not been washed for many days, and the clothes on their bodies were extremely shabby and patched, and there were many people who did not fit well.

"Oh, there." Ah Zheng pointed to the plastic bag outside the door.

A group of children's eyes lit up and scrambled towards the two large plastic bags outside the door.

One of the plastic bags was quickly opened first, and many of the snacks were spread on the floor, but the children were surprisingly quiet, and an older child began to distribute the snacks around them.

The children were neither noisy nor noisy, and they were led by one with snacks on their faces.

Another plastic bag was also opened, "Brother Ah Zheng, you brought these for us?!" The older child's tone was full of joy.

I was also stunned, it turned out to be a lot of educational reading, exercise books, ballpoint pens, compasses, rulers, triangles and other stationery!

At this moment, except for the older child, the other children all appeared depressed, presumably because they didn't see their favorite toys, right?

Ah Zheng whispered to me, "They are all orphans. ”

In fact, I had already guessed a few points when I saw their appearance, but I was still a little sad to hear this answer with my own ears.

Ah Zheng took a few steps forward, and then I noticed that in the corner of the classroom, there was a kind old woman sitting looking at Ah Zheng and me with a smile

Ah Zheng walked up to her: "Grandma, are you okay?" ”

I saw that there was a bunch of stationery behind me and the curious children also walked over to the old man's side.

It was then that I found free time to look at the dilapidated classroom, which had been occupied by a group of orphans and an old man, and naturally there were no desks, chairs, and podiums in it, but the old-fashioned blackboard was still there, and I don't know where they got the chalk, which was full of flowers, flowers, sun, houses, etc.

The space in the classroom was large enough to accommodate forty or fifty students, but now it is full of all kinds of drink bottles, beer bottles, waste paper quilts and other things, if I guess wrong, it should be the children's usual collection.

Near the window, there was a stove, and it wasn't yet cooking time, so there was no fire. In the open space next to it, there are some pots and pans for cooking.

After careful consideration, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, all kinds of daily necessities necessary for opening the door for seven things, are all complete, it seems that these children and the old man have indeed lived for a long time.

In the innermost corner of the classroom, where the old man is now sitting, there are more than a dozen mattresses and some scattered bedding, which must be where they sleep.

"Ah Zheng, you bring so many things with you every time you come......" The old man smiled, the flesh on his face relaxed, and the furrow-like wrinkles carved all over his face, and his gray hair was tied together with a leather band at will.

I suddenly felt that this old man was very familiar, I used to see her in the streets and alleys of X County, always carrying a broken nylon bag, rummaging things in the garbage cans in various communities, she was a veritable waste picker!

"It's a little bit of a joke...... Ah Zheng smiled.

"Sit down first, and I'll pour you water." Grandma stood up, walked to the fire, picked up a broken thermos that she had picked up out of nowhere, opened the stopper, and poured two glasses of water.

Grandma touched the cup and said apologetically: "The thermos bottle is not kept warm......"

"No need, Grandma, we're not thirsty." Ah Zheng said with a smile, looked at me again, and whispered, "Do you understand now?" ”

I clenched my fists: "Their plight is indeed sympathetic, but that doesn't justify you instructing students to steal, why don't you buy it when you already have so much money?" ”
