Ten
By the time he returned to the small courtyard of the single family, Liu Chuan had completely calmed down. He had even ignored the extreme fear of an hour ago, and his exhausted mood was suddenly shrouded in loneliness - because of Ji Wenzhu, because of the mobile phone that couldn't get through.
The composure on his face still did not escape Shan Chenggong's spicy eyes, and the two sharp gazes still stopped on his face for an extra moment. He asked Liu Chuan: "Why did you come back, are you okay?" Liu Chuan walked to the small table and sat down, and only after three seconds did he speak expressionlessly:
"Xiaokang sent someone to kill me, and I almost couldn't come back."
This answer brought a suffocating silence to the room, and even the long-experienced Shan Chenggong was stunned. After the silence, Shan Juan was the first to cry out: "What! Xiaokang wants to kill you, when? β
"Just now, next to Xiao Worm's house, there were three of them, and they couldn't see their faces clearly. They cut me with knives......" Liu Chuan paused, and that pause was also a respite for him, and he used a deep gasp to suppress the sudden recurrence of horror in his heart. "I almost couldn't come back," he said. β
Shan Chenggong quickly regained his composure and spoke slowly: "How do you know that Xiaokang killed you?" β
Liu Chuan replied affirmatively: "He asked me to go to Dongcheng to deliver medicine to the little worm, I just came out of the little worm's house, and as soon as I walked to the coal factory, those three people blocked me." β
Liu Chuan's voice fell, Shan Juan had already jumped off the bed, put on his shoes and rushed to the door. Shan Chenggong and Shan Juan's mother shouted together: "Shan Juan! Where are you going! Shan Juan did not answer, and all that remained in their ears was the sound of the door almost smashing.
Shan Chenggong staggered out of the door and chased him all the way to the outside of the small courtyard. It was empty outside, and the single cuckoo had run away without a trace.
Shan Chenggong hurriedly walked back to the small courtyard, and said sharply to Liu Chuan and Shan Juan's mother, who came out together: "You go back, stay in the house, stay in the house, don't go anywhere if I don't come back!" β
Liu Chuan and Shan Juan's mother stopped when they heard this, and watched Shan Chenggong turn around and run in the direction of Fan Bencai's house.
Shan Chenggong misjudged that his daughter didn't come here, or came and left. The door of Fan's house was tightly closed, and the door was knocked for a long time, but no one answered. Shan Chenggong turned around and ran to the "big rich man", his daughter was really here, and he was arguing fiercely with Xiaokang, and the wine bottle and glass fell to the ground. Xiaokang's minions were sandwiched between the two, some pulled a single juan, and some persuaded Xiaokang. Shan Chenggong went up and pulled his daughter's arm hard, and even pulled and dragged her away, but Shan Juan desperately broke free and refused to leave, and her screams were hoarse.
"Fan Xiaokang, if you want to kill me, you are a man, you are above board, what kind of ability are you who are hiding in the dark and shooting black guns, you are a fool in front of so many of your brothers! You're so confused that you don't even want to make a face......"
Fan Xiaokang was also very excited, and he also scolded back with a hoarse voice: "You are fucking shameless, you stinky and shameless thing, you ungrateful thing." Don't provoke Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is going to kill you. You said I shoot a black gun, did you see me shoot a black gun! The surname Liu said that I shot him with a black gun? He farts, and you should be an egg! I don't care about the virtue you messed up with him, as long as you spit out all the things I bought for you, the two of us will be clear, otherwise don't blame me, didn't you say I'm muddy, you just know it, I'll show you today. Get out of here, who the dares to pull me! β
Shan Chenggong fought hard to pull away his daughter, and his attitude was clearly on the side of Xiaokang. He scolded his daughter for talking nonsense, and repeatedly coaxed Xiaokang not to be like her. He pulled his daughter to the door when Fan Ben came out of the back room of the bar, and he stopped Shan Chenggong in a deep voice.
He said, "Lao Dan, don't go, come and sit." I happen to have something to talk to you about, and I want to talk to you about something. β
Shan Juan still couldn't help yelling at Xiaokang: "Xiaokang, I'll let you slaughter you today, you slaughter you in front of your father, if you don't kill me, don't bully others!" If it weren't for Liu Chuan, you wouldn't know if you would have been able to come back......"
Before Shan Juan's words fell, he slapped Shan Chenggong heavily on his face, Shan Chenggong glared at his eyes, and scolded sharply: "You shut up for me!" If you don't get down the steps, you are so angry with me, you are happy! He pushed his daughter vigorously and shouted, "Go back, you go home for me!" Seeing Shan Juan covering his face and turning his head and running away with tears in his eyes, he turned to smile at Lao Fan and slowed down his voice: "Big brother, are you here too?" Ahem, the children have a war of words, and it will be fine in two days, not to be taken seriously. β
Lao Fan also smiled, pulled Shan Chenggong to sit down, asked someone to serve beer and fruit plate, and after Qi Qi, Lao Fan said: "In this matter, Shan Juan is really wronged and well-off." I also just got the news, didn't they fight with someone because of Shan Juan in a nightclub in Long City two days ago, do you know who those people are? It's really a narrow road, and they bumped into the boss of Longcheng. Have you heard of Boss Long City? I have fought with him in the past, so I have not been in contact with him all these years, he does not mess with me, I do not mess with him, and the well water does not interfere with the river water. This time, Liu Chuan was too ruthless and injured the godson of the boss of Longcheng, and people were targeting him, so he had to be the only one. This matter has nothing to do with the well-off, you don't believe the well-off, do you believe my words? β
Lao Shan immediately nodded: "Believe, of course I believe." Big brother, although Liu Chuan is not my biological child, he has saved me, if he is in trouble, I can't ignore it. Big brother, you have to look at my face, no matter how you come out, help settle the matter. I will ask Liu Chuan to honor you well in the future, Liu Chuan, this kid is very righteous......"
Lao Fan interrupted Shan Chenggong with a look of embarrassment: "Lao Dan, with the brotherhood of the two of us, your business is my business." But today's matter is really difficult to do. I had a holiday with the boss of Longcheng, and in the past two years, he has made a fortune in Longcheng and has become big, and I can't afford to mess with him. So it's really not easy to do. β
Shan Chenggong said: "Big brother, I have been a brother with you for so many years, I still don't know you, what else is there to do with your boss Fan." β
Lao Fan smiled: "You're right, don't care where you are now, there's nothing you can't do, don't care where you are, there's nothing easy to do." β
Lao Shan said: "Then the eldest brother shows the way, what do you say this should be done?" β
Lao Fan immediately said: "There is only one way to settle this matter now, but whether you can take this road or not depends on you." β
Shan Chenggong paused and seemed to have guessed the following, but he still asked, "What way?" β
Old Fan also paused, because before he spoke, he had noticed Shan Chenggong's tacit gaze, but he still met that gaze and replied calmly:
"Money Road."
Shan Chenggong seemed to have finally seen through something, and his expression became plain and calm: "Big brother, you also know that I am now a lost dog, and Liu Chuan is also eating with the well-off, how can we still have money." After a pause, he asked, "How much does it cost to settle this matter?" β
Lao Fan said: "You have to spend fifty or sixty thousand, hey, if you can find a way to find the money that the third child lost, it would be good." To have such a large sum of money, spending 50,000 or 60,000 yuan is not like throwing a penny eight cents. β
Shan Chenggong shook his head without hesitation and smiled bitterly: "If I can find that money, I won't buy this Taiping first, I'll take out half of it first to thank you!" Your old fan is so good to me, and I am also a person who knows cold and hot when I succeed, I ......"
Lao Fan calmly intercepted Shan Chenggong's confession: "Hey, don't talk to death first, think about it again, maybe if any nerve moves, the money will come to mind!" β
When Shan Chenggong returned to the small courtyard, it was already very late at night, and Liu Chuan and Shan Juan's mother and daughter did not sleep, silently guarding the lonely lamp in the big house, waiting for him to come back. Shan Juan's face was faintly stained with tears, and he looked still angry. Liu Chuan sat on the side and bowed his head speechlessly, smoking to himself. Shan Chenggong's wife had a gloomy face and laid out a fortune-telling card on the bed......
Shan Chenggong walked into the house, and everyone in the house looked up together. His face sank beyond the shadow of the lamp, and no one could see the expression on it, but everyone could clearly hear his faint voice, which was not loud, but pierced the dullness of the night.
"Shan Juan, hurry up and clean up, you follow Liu Chuan, and you will leave tomorrow!"
Shan Juan jumped up excitedly: "Tomorrow? Good! β
She immediately jumped onto her mother's bed, where there were several large cardboard boxes on the other side, from which she took out the clothes she had gone on a long journey, and broke up the cards that her mother had just laid out.
Shan Juan's mother glared at her husband with puzzled eyes and asked, "Where did you let them go?" β
Shan Chenggong didn't answer his wife, he turned his face to Liu Chuan: "Liu Chuan, Shan Juan is one year older than you, she is an older sister, and you are a younger brother." But you're a man. I'll hand over Shan Juan and your mother to you, you can go away and fly high! You take them back to Beijing first, do you remember that little hotel in Fengtai District? You go and stay at the hotel first, and I'll call you there in a few days. Liu Chuan, you use your name to open a room, so that I don't find you when I call. β
Liu Chuan was also stunned, and he asked in a panic: "Back to Beijing?" But where do we get the money? β
It's dawn.
As soon as the morning dawned, Liu Chuan went out alone.
On this day, the sun seemed to rise faster than usual, and no matter how much Liu Chuan ran, he still couldn't catch up with the east, which quickly turned from red to white. He ran all the way, first to the breakfast shop not far from the small courtyard to buy flatbread, and then carried the flatbread to the grocery store as fast as he could. The middle-aged woman in the grocery store was still there, just getting up and freshening up, and she led Liu Chuan into the back room of the shop with a face of soap. When Liu Chuan came out after calling Section Chief Jing in the back room, the sun had already jumped up to the eaves without delay, and when he ran to the street of the small courtyard with a big cake, he saw Shan Chenggong standing anxiously outside the door waiting for him from a distance.
"Why is it so long?" Shan Chenggong asked with a frown.
"Line up." Liu Chuan gasped and replied.
"I saw that you didn't come back for a long time and wanted to pick you up, I thought you were blocking Xiaokang again."
"Nope."
Liu Chuan walked past Lao Shan with his heartbeat, and the moment he walked into the courtyard gate with a big cake, the sun was passing over the treetops at the door, oppressing him and Shan Chenggong's figures one after the other, smaller and smaller.
After Liu Chuan followed Shan Chenggong's father and daughter into the factory area of Qinshui Coking Plant, he learned that this kind of old factory actually has a large scale. The vast factory area is like a dilapidated small city, with a forest of decadent buildings, a series of wastes, a disorderly separation between the workshop and the material yard, and the material yard and the staff dormitory invade each other. Liu Chuan and Shan Juan followed Shan Chenggong around and around, and did not enter a dormitory building until they completely turned. The dormitory building is probably from the 60s, with mottled walls and exposed bricks. The windows have been modified by each family and are varied. The steps up the stairs are also in disrepair, with jagged teeth and staggered gaps.
They knocked on the door of a house on the corner of the third floor, where an obese middle-aged woman lived, Shan Chenggong called her eldest sister, and Liu Chuan and Shan Juan called aunt. What is the relationship between this aunt and Lao Dan, Liu Chuan didn't ask much, the purpose of their coming here is simple, that is, to get a cardboard box from the "aunt". The boxes were filled with pirated CDs, half of which were purely pornographic. After Liu Chuan and Shan Juan carried the cardboard box downstairs, Lao Shan and the woman bargained upstairs about the price. They carried the disc to a street market not far from the coking plant, where vendors had just gathered.
Liu Chuan had no experience in the way of merchants, and just followed the loud shouting. According to the rough estimate of Shan Chenggong's father and daughter, if all the discs in this box are sold, they will make a net profit of about 5,000. 5,000 yuan should be enough for Liu Chuan to take Danjuan's mother and daughter to escape to Beijing and stay in Beijing for several weeks.
There was a lot of noise in the bazaar, and there were all kinds of people selling them. Liu Chuan stood in front of the disc box with sore legs, so he greeted Shan Chenggong and went to wander around. He found that the market was dominated by second-hand goods, followed by clothing and daily necessities, and there were also a few stalls selling pirated discs, which were not too numerous. Looking ahead, there are cats, dogs, flowers, birds, fish and insects, all of them, sparse and sparse, and there is always half a kilometer stretching.
Liu Chuan walked around, a little boring, slowly went back to his stall, and changed to a single juan to go shopping. Shan Juan is off the horse to see the scenery, the speed of shopping is much slower than Liu Chuan, especially for the clothing stalls, he has a soft spot, take some colorful clothes to try the length, and the stall owner quarrels like bargaining, in fact, it is not for buying, just to say that the stall owner has no way to retreat, and then he goes away with the satisfaction of winning. Winning may be the ultimate happiness that Shan Juan has been pursuing since he was a child. It is enough to have a sense of victory, regardless of the specific gains and losses.
After winning consecutive battles, Shan Juan actually did not go far, so when several industrial and commercial investigations and a group of public security policemen suddenly appeared in the bazaar, and found Shan Chenggong's stall, everything was not far from Shan Juan's sight. Although the market was in chaos all of a sudden, and almost all the vendors were quickly putting away their goods and scattering in a hurry, Shan Juan still witnessed the seizure of their box of CDs and the scene of his father and Liu Chuan being detained through the cracks of the crowded people who fled for the road.
At noon that day, Shan Chenggong and Liu Chuan were escorted to the courtyard of the Nanguan Police Station in Qinshui City. They were joined by several other vendors selling yellow discs. Therefore, in Shan Chenggong's view, the purpose of this market investigation is not to rectify unlicensed business, nor to clean up counterfeit and shoddy goods, but to crack down on pornography and illegal activities on a large scale.
But Liu Chuan knew that those "public security policemen" were actually Qinshui criminal policemen who were moved by Section Chief Jing. This time, the goal of "eliminating pornography and cracking down on illegal publications" is clear, and it is aimed at him and Shan Chenggong.
After entering, they were questioned one by one, searched their belongings, and had their identity documents detained, and then they were all locked up in a windowed room, and sat on the cold concrete floor against the wall. Shan Chenggong kept his face calm and didn't speak all afternoon, and he didn't eat until the evening. In the evening, they vaguely heard the unintentional conversation between the two policemen outside the window, saying that most of the people arrested today would be released at night, and only a few of the people whose identity documents were more suspicious would be left overnight and checked again tomorrow. The dialogue of the police made Shan Chenggong even more pale, because even Liu Chuan could think for him that although Shan Chenggong's ID card was fake, it was still one of his biggest weaknesses. As long as a fugitive criminal like him, who has been sentenced to death with a suspended death sentence for a huge case, it will not be difficult to find out his true identity as long as he sees that his documents are suspicious and checks them a little. Of course, Shan Chenggong himself understands, of course he regrets it, regrets why he was so careless and went to that street market to sell CDs, this careless step is likely to bring him the pain of imprisonment for the rest of his life, and even bring him the scourge of killing him that he can no longer escape.
After dinner, there was really a movement, and the people in the same room were brought out one by one, and most of them did not come back, probably being let go. Some of them were escorted back, and when they asked in the same room, they couldn't help but sigh, but their identities could not be verified, and they had to be detained until tomorrow. The toss of people in the same room is a great torture for Shan Chenggong's nerves.
The people in the house went in and out all night without stopping. At about ten o'clock in the evening, Shan Chenggong was called out, and half an hour later, he was escorted back. Liu Chuan asked him about the situation, and he bowed his head and remained silent, apparently, the police were suspicious of his ID card. At this time, they all heard the footsteps of the policemen outside the window again, and they all heard the two policemen's transactional questions and answers:
"Who's mentioning?"
"Liu Chuan."
It's Liu Chuan's turn, Shan Chenggong suddenly raised his eyes, he should understand that if Liu Chuan never returns, they will say goodbye forever, and they will never meet again in this life. Shan Chenggong's eyes were red because of this, and his voice trembled because of this, and he shouted: "Liu Chuan! The cry was almost hoarse.
"Liu Chuan, are you my son?"
Liu Chuan didn't know why his whole body was shocked, because he had never seen such a look of despair and help on Shan Chenggong's face that was never silent. Liu Chuan's voice involuntarily became hoarse, and he replied mechanically in a hoarse voice:
"I am."
"Son, say goodbye to Dad."
Both of them sat on the ground, but Shan Chenggong leaned over and hugged Liu Chuan. He hugged Liu Chuan and said in a choked voice: "Son, I entrusted your mother and your sister to you." Look in my face, to them...... Be nice to them. You go out and ask your mother to take you to the beach and find the place where we got pregnant with a single cuckoo. Right down that cliff, in the same place where I got along with your mother...... Your mom knows that place, and I've left all our stuff there. Son, you asked your mother to take you...... Let's take you there! β
The sound of the key unlocking rang, shaking everyone's ear drums and hearts. The door slammed open, and a tall policeman entered. The police shouted in a casual voice: "Liu Chuan! Liu Chuan sat up straight, "Come out!" The police stood at the door, looking at Liu Chuan, and at this moment Shan Chenggong happened to end his last words.
It is quite close to Liu Chuan's imagination, it is a soil cliff standing by the sea, steep but not high, steep but not dangerous, just as Shan Chenggong once described. At this time, although the wind was blowing, there was not the slightest cold, and the sound of the waves hitting the shore in the distance was endless.
It is far away from Qinshui, about two days by car, and it is a little closer to Dongzhao, and it takes half a day to travel. Liu Chuan and Shan Juan's mother and daughter traveled day and night, thousands of miles away, and when they finally saw this vast sea, it was a starry sky and a bright moon. It was quiet all around, the sea was hard to see, but there was an echo on the shore.
They left Qin Shui on the night Liu Chuan was released and walked quietly. Except for the clothes he was wearing, and a backpack on his shoulder, there was nothing else. All the belongings and all the supplies were abandoned in the small courtyard that would never go back, left in the astonishment of Fan Bencai and his son Fan Xiaokang.
At this moment, they finally reached the end, and dry tears were still condensed in the corners of Shan Juan's eyes. If it weren't for Liu Chuan's resolute attitude, she would definitely have to stay in Qinshui and wait for her father to come out, even if there was only a one in 10,000 possibility.
At this moment, they reached the end. Shan Juan's mother was too tired to support her, and she limped to bring Liu Chuan and Shan Juan to the lingering realm of memory, where the grass blades and twigs on the soil were almost the same as they were more than twenty years ago.
The silver moonlight reflected the ripples of the sea on the vegetated cliffs, and the half-bright stars could not illuminate whether the fiery red rhododendrons were still blooming on them. Shan Juan's mother didn't know whether she was excited or tired, and her legs collapsed to the ground. Liu Chuan didn't say much, but dug down from here with a shovel he had prepared.
Shan Juan stood aside to look at the wind for Liu Chuan, the sound of the wind and the sound of the sea actually covered everything, although it was close at hand, but even she could hardly hear the sound of the shovel digging the earth, and it was difficult to hear Liu Chuan's rapid hoarse breathing. It seems that the only thing that knows the secret of tonight is the moon above and the stars in the sky.
The soil by the sea was moist and soft, but Liu Chuan's whole body was quickly soaked with sweat. The pit he dug was wide enough to plant a towering tree, but he didn't find anything foreign by digging three feet into the ground. The excavated soil was mixed with a large amount of coarse sand, as well as miscellaneous grass roots and gravel, and a spade was everywhere by Liu Chuanyang, and the surrounding area of the pit was in a mess. Digging and digging Liu Chuan stopped, he dug too hard and was exhausted. He threw his shovel in the pit and sat down to gasp for air. The wet sand on the ground carried an evil coolness, like sweat cold by the sea breeze, and suddenly soaked his whole body.
Shan Juan also squatted down in disappointment, and looked blankly into the pit with both eyes. Her mother's gaze also came to her, searching in vain in the unobstructed pit, and then turned to Liu Chuan with questions.
"No?"
Liu Chuan gasped and said, "No." β
Shan Juan asked her mother again, "Is this this place?" β
The mother said, "Yes, it's in this notch, and there was a big cuckoo on it. β
The mother and daughter raised their eyes together and looked at the top of the cliff above their heads, the top of the cliff was swallowed up by the night, and the grass and trees were dark. They lowered their heads and looked at each other without saying a word, so they had to look at Liu Chuan again. Liu Chuan gasped for a while, crawled out of the pit without a sound, pulled out a shovel from it, and next to the big pit that had just been dug out, another spade was dug down.
The left side was dug and then the right side was dug, and the three pits soon joined together and became an even larger one. Liu Chuan continued to dig, and the pit grew bigger and bigger, big enough to fit a double bed. Shan Juan also came up to help, and she and Liu Chuan replaced each other for three hours. Soon Shan Juan was also tired, and he was so tired that he lay on his back next to the big pit. At this time, she suddenly heard a few mutations in Liu Chuan's repeated digging sounds, and the mutated sound disappeared after a few times, but then it sounded again, bang! Syllable! Syllable...... It was like the end of a shovel hitting a hollow tree root.
The voice made Shan Juan get up from the ground, and before her eyes touched the bottom of the deep pit, she could see a sudden hope from Liu Chuan's expression and movements. The way Liu Chuan struggled to swing his shovel seemed to have told them that the clattering sound was definitely not a tree root or a stone. They were soon able to see with the naked eye that what emerged from the mud and sand was a black, smooth, hard object. They saw Liu Chuan throw away the shovel and use his hands to pick up the surface of the hard object and the surrounding sand, and when the floating sand was gone, they could confirm that what Liu Chuan was stroking with both hands was a large suitcase.
Liu Chuan's heart was beating in his throat, beating so that the tips of his hands kept trembling.
Shan Juan also jumped into the big pit, using his hands and feet at the same time, and dragged the suitcase out of the sand with Liu Chuan. They found that underneath the suitcase was the same suitcaseβthe same black, the same heavy...... They pulled it out as hard as they could.
The suitcase was unlocked, and with a snap of the button, the lid opened. Inside the box, there was a tightly wrapped colorless plastic sheet, and Liu Chuan and Shan Juan hurriedly tore the thick plastic sheet layer by layer. The moonlight seemed to suddenly light up at that moment, and their eyes were burned by a silver-plated color. The gray-blue dollar and pink yuan are so colorful and dazzling on this night when the waves are loud!
Both boxes were opened, and Shan Juan's mother and daughter were so excited that they burst into tears. Liu Chuan's eyes were also wet, his whole body relaxed, and he sat on the ground with his buttocks, as if he could no longer get up. He knew that this was an important moment in the history of his life, and the matter that he had done his best was finally over, and it was finally over with an unexpected victory, and with a great end. He can completely wash away the misunderstanding of his relatives, the mistakes of his friends, and the dust that he has suppressed and tired of for a long time in his heart, and he can immediately return to the normal track of life, return to his own home, return to his grandmother's side, and return to Ji Wenzhu's charming smile.
What he was looking for, almost at the cost of his life, was in front of him: in two large suitcases, the secret hidden by layers of semi-transparent plastic sheets, which almost sank into the ground forever - 3.8 million yuan, 990,000 US dollars, and a total of more than 12 million yuan worth of state property! More than 12 million, the almighty currency!
He was soaking wet, and he couldn't tell if it was sweat, the moisture of the sea, or the heavy night dew...... His sand-stained robe was open, and his chest shimmered as if it had been oiled. He and Shan Juan dragged a suitcase and helped Shan Juan's mother to climb to the top of the cliff from the steep sheep intestine path on the side of the cliff. It was from this only path that they walked down to the sea, and it is still from here that they still have to make their way home.
The path was so steep that the pre-dawn night obscured its unclear edges and shapes. More than 20 years ago, the mother of the young Shan Chenggong and Shan Juan stepped out of this ambiguous path, found the passionate beach, saw the vast water of desire, and remembered the fiery red cuckoo. One night, twenty years later, perhaps as wet and dark as tonight, I managed to drag two heavy suitcases down the path, down the cliff, and buried deep under the flaming red rhododendrons. What he buried was the future dreams and wealth of him and his family, and he also buried four accomplices, four armed policemen, a total of eight unjust souls who died in vain.
Among the three people who climbed to the top of the cliff at this moment, only Shan Juan appeared to be in good health, she did not exhaust her physical strength in the excavation just now like Liu Chuan, she could still walk and take the lead in climbing. She dragged her suitcase and her mother to the top of the cliff first. The top of the cliff is a large and flat open lawn, on which the shrubs are sparse and the grass and trees are mottled. Shan Juan and his mother were wheezing as they walked up to the clearing, nailed to the ground like nails, and could not move half a step. From their stiff expressions and stiff movements, one can already imagine what they saw.
Liu Chuan also climbed to the top of the cliff, his gaze crossed the stiff back of Shan Juan's mother and daughter, and cast his gaze on the front of the pingdi. Less than thirty meters away from them, at the end of the end of the gaze, there were countless police cars with lights out, and how many armed policemen with loaded guns and ammunition surrounded an impenetrable human wall!
Liu Chuan's swollen arms could no longer lift the heavy box, his hands were already covered with blood blisters worn by the shovel, and the suitcase fell off his side, slamming on the hard ground at the top of the cliff. The headlights of the police car lit up almost at the same time as the suitcase hit the ground, and the police lights on the roof flashed majestically. A group of policemen strode towards them, led by the long-lost forest of the Dongzhao Public Security Bureau. He bypassed the mother and daughter of Shan Juan, who had been completely stunned, and walked straight to Liu Chuan at the mouth of the cliff, he stretched out his hand and shook it vigorously, holding Liu Chuan's bleeding right hand in pain. In Liu Chuan's dull ears after the pain, he officially heard the director of the investigation of the vault robbery, and solemnly announced that everything was over!
"Thank you, Comrade Liu Chuan, you did a great job! You have made a great contribution to our cracking of this case, on behalf of the Dongzhao City Public Security Bureau, on behalf of the people of Dongzhao City, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you! β
Liu Chuan's mind was numb, and he didn't speak. He didn't have anything to say. He watched numbly as Commissioner Lin turned away from him, walking towards the two suitcases that had been seized by the police. The suitcase was opened, surrounded by many policemen, and under the illumination of seven or eight flashlights, Director Lin examined the dazzling bundles of cash in the box, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face.
Liu Chuan's whole body was so sore, he lost consciousness, he couldn't walk half a step forward, he couldn't laugh and cheer like them. He stared blankly at Shan Juan and her mother being handcuffed and pulled away by the police, staring blankly at the bright red and blue police lights, he stared at this grand scene, he was indifferent to the joy of this scene. It was only when Section Chief Jing separated everyone and stepped forward and hugged him in his arms that a knowing smile bloomed on his face, and tears poured out from the bottom of his heart, bursting out of his eyes like a fountain.
