After Lao Zhang left, the stall owner came over, first collected the money, then picked up the bowl, wiped the table with a cloth and said, "Lao Zhang is really pitiful." My wife died early, and I relied on my son for my life, seeing that my son could make money, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen again. ”

"Lao Liu, the money is here."

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow!" The boss put away the money and busily wiped the table.

Hong Yu put the last mouthful of tofu brain into his mouth, and asked while taking out the money, "Boss, your tofu brain here is good?!" It's been a long time since I've eaten such a good tofu brain. ”

"Guest, you're welcome!" The boss took the money handed to him by Hong Yu and said, "Guest officer, I've been setting up a stall here for a long time, why haven't I seen you?!" ”

Hong Yu replied with a smile: "I've been studying outside, and I just came back two days ago. By the way, that old Zhang just now, are you very familiar with each other?! ”

The boss replied with a smile: "Yes, he often takes care of my business." It's a pity that his son came back from the car this time and fell seriously ill. It's not just right. ”

Hong Yu then asked, "Lao Zhang, where do you live?!" I happen to lack a driver at home, I'll check it out later, and if his son is really well, he can help our family drive. ”

"Oops! Guest, you are such a good person! Saying that, the boss put the bowl in the bucket in the distance, walked to Hong Yu's side, and said, "Guest officer, you walk along the alley in front of you to the end, opposite the lantern shop." ”

Hong Yu looked in the direction pointed by the boss, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you!" ”

Leaving the stall, Hong Yu slowly walked back home. The Tang brothers, who were boxing in the patio, immediately stopped when they saw Hong Yu. Tang Xingye asked, "Brother Yu, what's wrong?!" ”

Hong Yu glanced at the Tang brothers, still walking in with his head down. Walking into the study, Hong Yu sat on the chair and was stunned. After about half an hour, Hong Yu came back to his senses, stood up suddenly, walked out of the study quickly, washed up for a while, walked to the front and found the Tang brothers, and said: "Xingshang, work hard, go to the train station and buy me two train tickets from Beiping to Baoding at noon today." ”

"Oh!" Tang Xingshang answered and hurriedly ran out.

After Tang Xingshang left, Tang Xingye asked, "Brother Yu, what's wrong?!" ”

Hong Yu smiled and said, "When Xingshang comes back, you will go to a place with me." ”

"Oh!" Tang Xingye responded thoughtfully, and waited for Tang Xingshang to come back by Hong Yu's side.

I have to say that Tang Xingshang's work efficiency is still very high. After about half an hour, the sound of a car horn was heard outside the gate. Hearing the sound of the horn, Hong Yu said with a smile: "Xingshang is back!" With that, Hong Yu stood up and walked out. Tang Xingshang saw Hong Yu standing in front of the gate, got off the train with a smile, sent the train ticket to Hong Yu, and said, "Brother Yu, fortunately, I am not dishonored!" ”

Hong Yu took the train ticket and said, "Xingshang, you drive the car to the intersection in front and wait for me and Xingye." ”

"Okay!" Tang Xingshang returned to the car without saying a word, started the car and left. Waiting for the car to go away, Hong Yu took Tang Xingye and walked in another direction. It didn't take long for Hong Yu to follow the instructions of the breakfast stall owner and take Tang Xingye to find Lao Zhang's house. Hong Yu was just about to knock on the door, and Lao Zhang just opened the door and came out.

Seeing Hong Yu and Tang Xingye standing at the door, Lao Zhang asked curiously, "Sir, who are you looking for?!" ”

Hong Yu replied, "This is you and your son." ”

"Looking for me and my son?!" Lao Zhang muttered and said, "Sir, it seems that I don't know you." ”

"Soon you'll know who I am." Saying that, Hong Yu looked at the surrounding situation, and then asked, "Can we go in and talk?!" ”

Lao Zhang hesitated, got out of the way, and said, "Come in!" ”

"Dad, why are you back?!" Lao Zhang's son saw his father suddenly appear in front of him, and immediately became curious. Lao Zhang said: "Son, someone is looking for us. ”

"Who?!" Lao Zhang's son asked.

Hong Yu's voice rang out: "It's me!" To be precise, I'm here to save your father and son. ”

"Save us?!" Lao Zhang's son muttered, looked at Hong Yu, who was standing in his father's hand, and said, "Sir, what do you mean by this?!" ”

Hong Yu said: "You know it in your heart. ”

Lao Zhang's son smiled bitterly: "Sir, I really don't know. If you don't have anything else to do, please leave. ”

Hong Yu said lightly: "Since you don't want to say it, then I'll leave first." We are all Chinese, and I would like to remind you. A lot of people are staring at what you're shipping. Now that the things you're transporting are gone, and you're the only one who knows the whereabouts of the things, do you think they'll let you go?! Don't give up your own life, take your father's life. With that, Hong Yu turned around and made a gesture to leave.

Lao Zhang's son, lowered his head and thought about it, raised his head suddenly, looked at Hong Yu's back, and said, "Wait! ”

Hong Yu stopped and turned his head to look at Lao Zhang's son. Lao Zhang's son said, "Sir, you must save me and my father." Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you. ”

Hong Yu replied, "You know what I want to know. ”

Lao Zhang saw that his son didn't want to say it yet, so he couldn't help but scold: "Bastard boy, when do you want to hide it?!" Do you really want to see your father die, are you willing?! ”

Lao Zhang's son sighed, turned around and turned up the mat on the bed, picked up a booklet pressed underneath and handed it to Hong Yu, and said, "It turns out that in addition to driving, I also work as a stevedore, but this time it's very strange." When we went to the freight yard, the goods were already loaded. And there is also a special guide, the destination is only known by the guide, and we don't know it in advance. And each car was equipped with three cargo pressers with guns. Halfway through, I suddenly had a stomachache, so I got out of the car early. When I returned, the car was gone. Later, I heard that the goods and people were missing, and I was afraid that the owner of the goods would find me, so I left Tianjin. In this booklet, I traced the map from the guide's hand while he was not looking. I don't know if it's useful to you. ”

Hong Yu took the booklet and said, "I can find here, others can find it, it's not safe here, you father and son can't stay here." I've bought you a train ticket to Baoding. Saying that, Hong Yu raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said, "It's almost time now, you and your father immediately tidy up your things, and I'll send you to the train station." ”

"Good!" Lao Zhang answered, and immediately got busy with his son.

After packing up his things, Hong Yu took Tang Xingye to protect the Zhang family father and son to the intersection, and after getting on the bus, Hong Yu took out two train tickets and a thousand legal currency from his pocket and handed them to Lao Zhang, saying: "Take the tickets and money." When you arrive in Baoding, don't stop, buy a train ticket to the south, and find a place to stay. Remember never to come back. ”

"Thank you!" Lao Zhang put away the money and train tickets, and silently instructed Hong Yu in his heart.

After about two hours, Hong Yu and the Tang brothers put Lao Zhang's father and son on the train. Back in the car, Tang Xingye asked, "Brother Yu, how did you find this kid?!" ”

Hong Yu replied, "Maybe God is helping me!" Immediately, Hong Yu told what happened this morning. After listening to Hong Yu's narration, Tang Xingshang laughed and said, "I didn't expect to encounter such a good thing when I went out for a morning run. Then he asked, "Brother Yu, where are we going next?!" ”

Hong Yu replied, "Go home!" ”

"Okay!" Tang Xingshang started the car and drove up.

When Hong Yu and the Tang brothers passed by the alley where Lao Zhang's father and son lived, they saw a large number of black-clothed people rushing out of it. Seeing this scene, Hong Yu and Tang Xingye glanced at each other, and Tang Xingye said: "Fortunately, we are one step faster, otherwise we will collide with them, and it will be troublesome." ”

Hong Yu chuckled and said, "Although it is said that foreign monks are good at chanting. But this is China, and it is still China's own Bodhisattva. ”

Back home, Tang Xingshang put down Hong Yu and his eldest brother and drove away. Hong Yu and Tang Xingye walked to the study, closed the door, Hong Yu took a map from the bookshelf and spread it on the desk, took out the booklet given to him by Lao Zhang's son, and marked the driving route on the map with quick movements.

Tang Xingye looked at the map and said, "Brother Yu, just knowing the route and not knowing where they disappeared is not equal to zero." ”

Hong Yu replied, "Having a good start is more important than anything else. We don't know where they disappeared, but there's no such thing as an impermeable one. As long as you have the heart, there will be new clues soon. ”

Tang Xingye thought for a while and said, "Brother Yu, we can't just sit and wait, right?!" ”

The corners of Hong Yu's mouth curled slightly, smiled, and said: "Tomorrow you and I will go to Tianjin, and check from the source, I don't believe that I can't find clues." ”

At the same time, Lixing Club Beiping Station.

"Stationmaster, we're a step late, Zhang Qiang's kid ran away with his father."

"What?!" Chen Gongshu, the head of the Beiping station, was taken aback when he heard the report of his subordinates. With a cigarette butt in his mouth, he walked around the office twice and asked, "Did you find out where they went?!" ”

"No, but according to their neighbors, before we went, two young men had approached the Zhang family. It didn't take long for the Zhang family father and son to leave with these two people. And when they left, they saw that the Zhang family father and son were carrying burdens. ”

Chen Gongshu threw the cigarette butt on the ground, scratched his head and was about to speak, when the secretary walked in from outside with a telegram and said, "Stationmaster, the president is urgent!" ”

Chen Gongshu took the telegram, quickly read the content of the telegram at a glance, and said: "Grandma is a bear, in the end, she is the president, she is really powerful!" ”

Hearing Chen Gongshu's words, his subordinates stepped forward and asked, "Stationmaster, what does the president command?!" ”

Chen Gongshu said: "You go down first!" I'll let you know what's going on. ”

"Yes!" The subordinate answered and exited Chen Gongshu's office. When the office door closed, Chen Gongshu's face changed, he picked up the phone on the table, hesitated, put the phone down again, sat on the office chair and sighed, his face showed a bitter smile.
