Chapter 099: Butcher Zhao Lied

Butcher Zhao got 500 yuan, thinking that he finally had to go to Ankang City next time, and he had to take a good look. In 1983, Ankang was hit by a flood, and the whole city was devastated and dilapidated. Over the years, Ankang has changed rapidly, especially the Han River Bridge, which is a rare fancy bridge pier, which was said to be not strong and had a lifespan of no more than five years, but was not damaged in the flood at all, and this bridge is the most beautiful bridge he has ever seen.

He thought that since he had the money, he would buy new clothes, take a bath in the bathhouse, and get a haircut in the shampoo, so that even if there were witnesses, he would not recognize him at all. Sneak in the afternoon and take the last bus back to Hang. It was already dark when the car reached the top of the Tianshan Mountain, and the driver saw Shengyang and Aunt Sun waiting for the car, so he stopped and let them sit up.

The driver, also surnamed Zheng, is a member of the Xiangyang Brigade. Sheng Yang sat behind the driver, and Aunt Sun sat by the door. Shengyang was familiar with him, so he talked about Sister-in-law Chen's abduction, and the driver spoke very loudly, and the conversation between the two could be heard by the whole car. Butcher Zhao sat in the back by the window, pretending to be nothing, thinking that he would find Tianshan so quickly, but fortunately his brain reacted quickly, otherwise he would have been caught by them by walking on a fool's foot.

"There are witnesses who say that it was a dumb person who cheated on my sister-in-law, I don't think it's possible!" When Sheng Yang said this, Butcher Zhao was even more relieved in his heart, he really didn't dare to do such a dangerous thing without any guts. Crooked ways also rely on intelligence, let's just say that the magic that comes out of the ears and nostrils, so far no one has discovered the doorway, relying on these little tricks, mixed with a lot of smoke and food.

"Of course it can't be, there are a lot of traffickers now, and there are several fights on National Day, it seems that they have a gang, so we have to go back to the police and let the police/inspector deal with it." Driver Zheng also ran back and forth, and he had more knowledge.

"Then you can ask the other drivers along the road to see if anyone has picked them up." Shengyang asked hopefully. Butcher Zhao became nervous in his heart, this eye is not so stupid, but the fool has been sold, and the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't find him.

"We only had five or six shuttle drivers on the road, but it was impossible to think about it, since he could disguise himself as dumb, he wouldn't take the bus. Now the traffickers, the man, were deceived into digging coal in Shanxi, and when the accident occurred, he pretended to be his family to receive compensation; The woman was deceived into being sold to a bachelor in a poor ravine as a wife, and it was rumored that there were several brothers who shared a woman; Children are even more valuable, and people in the mountains are too ignorant to think too much! ”

"Have you found the people you sold by the traffickers before?" Shengyang heard about the criticism meeting, and by the way, he also found hope for himself.

"How can they get it back, they transferred the people to Ankang, and they were picked up by outsiders, who knows where they were sent. These human traffickers who are inferior to birds/beasts are hateful when they talk about it, and they focus on people like Sister-in-law Chen. It's really difficult, I read the newspaper, my sister-in-law can't read, and I heard that the poor ravine is all up and down, and I can't run if I want to. "Driver Zheng hears such and such new things almost every day.

Ankang Railway Station is the most chaotic place, no matter the outsiders and locals, as long as they arrive at the train station, 90% of the people will be slaughtered. Generally, as long as you get off the bus, they will pester you to eat during the day and let you stay at night. There is an unwritten rule that no matter if a group of people is in a group or not, as long as anyone taps on whose shoulder, this traveler is their person. A meal of fifty to hundreds, depending on your poverty of at least 50 yuan, if you are rich, you will ask for more, if you don't give it, you can't eat it, a few strong men wearing sunglasses take whips, or punch and kick.

Some really have no money, and they are scolded and crying, saying that if they don't have money, they don't come out to mix, dirty their hands, waste their time, and confiscate all valuable things on their bodies, such as watches, necklaces, etc. Most of the food was rancid, smelly, and sour, like water in a pot. The place where I lived, a simple bed that was wet, slimy, and smelly, and there were rats and fleas in it, which was dirtier than a dog kennel at all, at least 50 yuan a night, and 50 yuan if I didn't live, and I would let people out only after giving money.

Drivers from other places enter the vicinity of the railway station, whether it is a passenger car or a truck, they have to pay a toll, and they will not be allowed to go. Generally more than 100 yuan, when the resisting driver hits the nose and swollen face and shouts to the father and mother, he still has to give it before leaving. These traffickers from other places also have to pay protection money, they basically don't buy tickets when they take the train, in addition to selling people, stealing is also their forte, in addition to stealing money, it is stealing tickets.

In Ankang City, it is also chaotic, and locals try all kinds of ways to deceive as long as they hear that the accent is from outside. From commercial investment to small people selling vegetables in the market, Ankang was the word "frightened" in the eyes of outsiders. The root of the scourge is in the railway station, which is the only way for outsiders to get to Ankang, and it is a big deal for outsiders to not enter, there is no flow, there is no investment, there will be no development.

"The wicked have evil retribution, and those traffickers are estimated to be sentenced to many years." Shengyang can't wait for the traffickers to be sentenced to death, there are so many serious things to do in society, why do you have to do evil things that hurt nature and reason, and lose your conscience.

"If you catch it, you're a human trafficker, and if you can't catch it, people don't live among us as well. is like the trafficker surnamed Hu at the criticism meeting, who looks like a dog. He loves gambling and molesting/teasing women, if he doesn't crack down hard this time, who knows that he is a human trafficker. Driver Zheng said this, and shouted loudly to Zhao Butcher: "Old Zhao, do you say this is the truth?" Zhao Butcher was secretly rejoicing, hearing the driver's shout, only the driver's desk in the car turned on the lights, and it was pitch black behind him, and he couldn't see the panicked expression on his face.

"Huh? Yes! That's the truth, the bad guys should be arrested and shot! ”

"Lao Zhao, I rarely see you enter the city, what are you doing in the city today?" Driver Zheng asked, and Butcher Zhao had already thought of a way to deal with it.

"Don't you see that I'm more energetic today, I'm at least ten years younger, still in a suit and leather shoes. I'm pretending to be a ghost. ”

"What do you mean, do you want to meet your old lover/person?"

"No, it's an old comrade-in-arms we met when we were building roads on the third line before, they are now public units, we are old farmers, we can't be ashamed when we meet, and we deliberately spent a lot of money on me. I have to cut several buckets of paint to get this dress, and when I get home to do dirty work, I can't wear it, do you say it's pretending to be a ghost! After saying that, the people in the car also laughed, this is the reason.

"It's okay, you can wear it for the New Year, but your dress is really different. Like an old cadre, go back and let your nemesis Zhou Qian take a look, and him off. "Everyone knows that Butcher Zhao likes to pretend to be official, and he is also happy to be said so.

"I won't show off to him, otherwise his wife will see me and run away, and I will panic." The people in the car were amused by him again, and Shengyang's mood was also affected, as if he was not so depressed.

"You two living treasures, it's hard to imagine, you two went west later, who still amuses us, today's children, no one wants to learn any flower drum play. I don't like pop songs at all nowadays, bouncing, crazy, dressed violently/revealingly, and all out of tune. ”

"Then let Lao Zhao give us a while, and it will take some time to get to the district." Someone in the carriage heckled, and then someone chimed in. Shengyang has rarely listened to flower drum opera in these years, but today is a chance encounter, and I want to hear it. Seeing that everyone had changed the topic, Zhao Butcher simply pushed the boat down the river, and the flower drum play was the only fun in his life.

When he got out of the car, Shengyang deliberately ran to Butcher Zhao and said to him, "Uncle Zhao, you are more familiar with the district and know more people, please help pay more attention to see who abducted my sister-in-law." When Butcher Zhao was stopped by Shengyang, he was shocked, and when he said these words, he replied generously.

"Certainly, such a favor, must help!" also patted him on the back of the shoulder with his hand, Shengyang found that he was a good elder, but the fact that he was stealing the knife was unbearable, but if he had something to ask for today, it would be another matter.

"Don't be surprised that Shengli and her eldest brother went to your house before, she is a child and is not sensible. So, please help inquire about this. ”

"Don't care, don't care, don't worry, I promise to inform you as soon as there is news." He patted his chest again and assured Shengyang from the bottom of his heart.

When Butcher Zhao saw everyone get out of the car and go home, he returned along the highway to find his pig-killing knife basket, thinking about the journey back and forth of more than 20 miles, it was really asking for his own hardship. When the car passed there, he couldn't get out of the car for fear of revealing his horse's feet. Fortunately, the place where the knife basket was placed, everything was there, and I walked briskly all the way, and it was midnight when I returned home. The old woman blamed him for forgetting the way home as soon as he encountered alcohol. He said that he didn't drink and went to do something big, and his mother-in-law asked what the big thing was, and he asked her to see the new clothes all over the body.

The mother-in-law was about to ask the reason for the incident, so he made up a story that when he came back from dinner the night before, he heard the cry of a wild beast in the woods on the way. I was scared at first, and then I thought about what I was afraid of with a knife on my body, and when I walked in, I saw that it was a leopard that was caught in an iron clip. So he took the bag of pig's hair in the basket and put the leopard in the bag, took it to Ankang overnight, and quietly sold it at the train station this morning.

Butcher Zhao pretended to be happy and said that in these years, beasts are worth more than people, and they sold for 500 yuan, so he went to Ankang to spend a time, and handed over all the rest of the money to his mother-in-law to manage. The mother-in-law happily said that he had gone shit luck. Zhao Butcher signaled not to let his daughter-in-law hear it, the leopard is a national protected animal, and it is a crime. Besides, it's someone else's trick, the more people who know, the more troublesome it is, and the mother-in-law won't admit it when she says she will be killed.

The next day, Shengyang found Captain Li, and the captain said that this was obviously abducted by human traffickers, and the person could not be found for a while. The main thing is to catch the murderer, and then let the police investigate it again. The police station received a report, and the director said that he would send someone to help check it. Since it is said that it is deaf and mute, then it is necessary to exclude the deaf and mute people in the district first, and after checking the roster, there are about 20 deaf and mute men, from Nanxi Street to the Quanliu Brigade, it can almost be ruled out, and it is impossible to go so far to commit crimes. That range can only be around the area and all the way to the dam. In this way, there are only seven or eight suspects, and Shengyang said to ask them one by one first, and probably check their appearance.
