Chapter 70: Huang Wei

Huang Wei glanced at Xie Xiaoshuai, didn't say anything, turned around and entered the house, Xie Xiaoshuai and Gao Ying followed in.

As soon as they entered the door, a thick sour smell entered the nostrils of the two men, stimulating their brains. The room is very dimly lit, and the sunlight shines through the windows. There was no furniture in the room except for a table and a chair, and a large plastic jug on the table was filled with wine, which could weigh no less than ten catties.

Huang Wei sat on the chair, picked up the bowl and took a big sip, and grabbed a large handful of peanuts from the side with his other hand and stuffed it into his mouth. Peanut shells spit out at will, and the ground around Huang Wei's chair was full of peanut shells, which were piled up thickly.

Who is this? Is there nothing in his eyes that deserves his attention except wine? I'm afraid he only has money to buy wine, so won't he get drunk after drinking so much wine? This is the only thought in Xie Xiaoshuai's mind at this time.

Huang Wei drank all the contents of the bowl into his stomach in one gulp, and sighed, looking quite satisfied. Only then did he turn his head and saw Xie Xiaoshuai and Gao Ying standing in the room: "I'm sorry, the cold house is simple, and there is no place to sit, so I neglect the guests." ”

"It's okay, we're here today to ask, do you know the reason for this riot?" Xie Xiaoshuai asked the purpose of his visit.

"What riot? I don't know what you're talking about? I don't welcome you, if it weren't for Xiao Gao's face, I would have blasted you out, you get out of here. Hearing Xie Xiaoshuai's words, Huang Wei's drunkenness disappeared suddenly, and he immediately turned his face.

"Surely you know something? Tell me. Xie Xiaoshuai was unmoved and continued to ask.

"You won't get anything from me, get out, I don't want to see you." Huang Wei filled the bowl and continued to drink.

"Uncle Huang."

"Don't call me Uncle Huang, it's not something you can call."

"That old comrade, is this okay?"

"It doesn't matter."

"Look outside, comrade. Now all the people are hiding at home and don't dare to go out, it's been a few days, what should they do after eating the things at home? At worst, these people wantonly trample on the laws of the country and treat people's livelihoods as child's play in order to achieve their ulterior goals. Xie Xiaoshuai said bitterly.

"What does this have to do with me?" Huang Wei said coldly.

"How does it not matter? The subsistence allowance you eat is issued to you by the government, right? The comrades of the civil affairs department of the government are very concerned about you, right? Besides, people are panicking everywhere outside, all the shops are closed, where can you buy your wine after drinking? Xie Xiaoshuai changed his routine and continued.

"You don't have to worry about that." Huang Wei simply can't get in.

Xie Xiaoshuai didn't know what to say, he couldn't use torture to extract confessions, this could not be used on ordinary people.

The room fell silent, several people did not speak, Huang Wei continued to drink and eat peanuts, ignoring Xiaoshuai and them. At this time, the sun moved, and the light just shone on the table, Xie Xiaoshuai saw some kind of metal object exposed at the foot of the table, and when he walked in, it was actually a third-class military merit medal.

"This is a military merit medal? Old comrade, you were a soldier? Xie Xiaoshuai asked.

"That's when you were quite old and you weren't born yet." Huang Wei was triumphant.

"Tell me about it, let me admire the demeanor of the old comrades." Xie Xiaoshuai saw that there was a scene, and a sycophant slapped it over.

Huang Wei was very useful, and he got carried away and said: "I think back then, Lao Tzu was a man of the year in ten miles and eight towns. Explosive heads, floral shirts, bell bottoms, and pointed leather shoes were the most popular at that time, and Lao Tzu didn't know how many girls he was fascinated when he went out in his outfit. Every morning, Lao Tzu starts working with a tape recorder in one hand and a tool in the other, do you know how many eyeballs he attracts? Ha ha. ”

"And what do you always do?" Gao Ying's curiosity came up again.

"Sweeper the road. When I was tired, I slept standing on the ground with a broom, and slept for hours. ”

"Wow~! You're so good, so why did you go to the army later? Gao Ying continued to be curious.

"My father, no matter how you look at me, I don't like it, when I was recruited, he threw me into the army, it was the early eighties, just at the end of the Southern Xinjiang Campaign."

"And then?" Gao Ying said.

"Later? The recruits went to the battlefield as soon as they were in the company, and they lay in the cat's ear hole for a month during the war. Later, I went out to collect the body, and I still remember that scene very clearly. Thousands of people fell forever during the battle of crossing the river, and many of the bodies were decomposed by the time we drove there, and it was impossible to tell who it was. We braved the sun and loaded the corpses one by one onto the truck, and the foul smell was still there after a few days of washing, and I vomited so much that I was overturned. Later, we went up the company, and most of my comrades died, but I survived and came back after the battle. Huang Wei showed a look of remembrance.

"You also have a time when you are young and enthusiastic, how noble it is to participate in wars and defend your family and country! So why is it now indifferent to see people living in dire straits? Xie Xiaoshuai asked.

"Alas! These bastards are indeed a bit too much. Huang Wei muttered.

"What the hell is going on? Can you talk about it? "Xie Xiaoshuai struck while the iron was hot.

"Don't ask me, in fact, I don't know much, you go to the river to find a garbage truck named Chen Wei, he may know some, just say that his Grandpa Huang called you here." Let's go, and don't disturb me drinking. With that, he took another sip of the wine in the bowl, perhaps in a hurry, and coughed violently, and his dark face flushed abnormally.

Gao Ying wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Huang Wei, and the two exited the dim room and walked towards the river.

"These bastards, put their comfortable days away, but toss around all day long. Okay, I'll see how you end, I'm afraid this day is going to change. After Xie Xiaoshuai and Gao Ying left, Huang Wei said to himself. Picked up the big wine jug and drank it, as if he was drunk, Huang Wei fell on the table, the wine jug fell to the ground, the wine spilled out of it, and the room was suddenly filled with wine and sour smell.

When I came to the river, a large truck stopped in front of a bungalow, which looked like three or four rooms. A young man in his thirties sat by the river fishing, humming a song all the time.

"May I ask if you are Chen Wei?" Xie Xiaoshuai asked.

"yes, who are you?" Chen Wei returned to China and looked at the two strangers in front of him vigilantly.

"It was you, Grandpa Huang, who asked us to come to you."

Hearing Xie Xiaoshuai's words, Chen Wei stood up, this person was nearly one meter eight tall, slightly fat, and looked very strong. Chen Wei looked around, and after making sure that no one was following the two, he said to Xie Xiaoshuai: "Come into the house and say." ”

Chen Wei closed the door, handed Xie Xiaoshuai and Gao Ying a bench, and asked, "Grandpa Huang, what's wrong with him?" He wouldn't have let people come to me unless it was something particularly important. ”

"He's fine, we just came from him. We were trying to find out the cause of this riot, and it was he who told us you knew something. Gao Ying added.

"What a thing! It's not easy to do that. Those dying guys are really restless, and this time it's going to make things bigger. Are you government workers? Chen Wei's face was embarrassed.

"Yes, we all want to calm down the incident as soon as possible, let the local people return to normal life, and tell me everything you know, word for word." Xie Xiaoshuai said.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Wei took a deep breath: "Okay, I'll tell you everything I know." But one thing you have to promise me is that you can't tell anyone that I'm leaking, or I'm going to die a terrible death. ”

Xie Xiaoshuai promised: "This is no problem, you can go back with me later, and I will arrange people to protect you." ”
