Chapter 7, two tail lines, two results
The motorcycle robbers fled in the south, and since one of them was already injured, it is believed that he would not be able to run far. After leaving the alleyway, Midong ran straight south, not far from Higashi-Shinjuku subway station, and to the south is the bustling Kabukicho territory. She can't afford to delay the time, as long as she hesitates for a moment, the other party doesn't know where she will run!
"My money, my money, my money, you two bastards pay me back!"
Midong ran down the street as fast as she could, following the route she had seen the last two robbers, and kept looking at her watch, her face becoming more and more anxious. It's 7:10 p.m., and if she can't get back 300,000 yen in 10 minutes, if she can't get to her destination at 8 p.m., the consequences will be unimaginable!
"Otherwise, by next month's repayment date, it will be 650,000, you two bastards!"
At 7 o'clock at night, Kabukicho is full of men and women who are beginning to enjoy the nightlife, and the main road is bustling with traffic. It is conceivably difficult to find two set goals from this bustling crowd, but Midong is running wildly and determined, and she doesn't care if she knocks over many middle-aged men, because she has no way out at all!
In fact, she didn't need to run a longer distance to already know the predetermined result.
"Whew...... Call...... Call...... Sure enough, it's gone. ”
Midong stopped in front of a custom shop, snorting and panting, and she was also a fast runner, so her physical exertion was also very high. Those two robbers must have spare money in their pockets, and if they can catch up with them again, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to make up 300,000 yuan. However, at this time, looking at the entire crowded pedestrian street, where can you still see people?
"Well, I'm here to ......"
Sweat drips from Mito's sideburns, and she smiles bitterly and realizes that she has inadvertently gone deep into the famous Kabukicho Ichiban Street.
But with all the shops and shops, bars and clubs on every floor, and so many pimps in suits handing out leaflets on the streets, where are the two robbers going to be?
"Hmph, if you succeed in grabbing, I guess I'll come here and walk in style. But since it failed......"
Mi Dong was speechless, constantly glancing at her watch.
It's 7:20 a.m., and if she can get together 300,000 yuan in 20 minutes, she will have time to repay the loan.
But what should she do?
Kabukicho's words will indeed open Mito's mind fully. However, even if she was soliciting customers on the street at this time, and took a large order to serve seven or eight men at the same time, with a total consumption of more than 150,000 yen, it would definitely take 120 minutes, right?
"Could it be that the old lady really has to pay 50,000 yen next month?"
She stood in place, breaking out in a cold sweat, gritting her teeth: "Damn loan sharks, and you have to pay back the ones that were blown away by the wind just now, so you just make more money...... Earn more...... 180,000 yen......"
She counted the remaining banknotes in her bag, and her face was as white as paper: "That is, I will earn 480,000 yen next month!" I'm a temporary worker in society, and my eldest brother can't make up so much money, so I have to maintain a basic life...... Well? ”
In the bustling crowd, a panicked figure attracted Midong's attention.
It was a middle-aged man in a brown leather jacket, glasses, and a scholarly look. He suddenly walked out of a laneway, and hurried forward in a panic, not walking a total of thirty meters, but he had turned back four times frequently, obviously afraid of being overtaken.
"Greasy ......"
Midong quickly followed. Although she hadn't figured out why she was tracking her, years of wandering on the streets had taught her that there must be a story about that man.
So if the opportunity is right, even if she takes the man's wallet away, she will probably be able to feel at ease.
The new target gets, and Midong begins the tail line. There are many pedestrians on the street, most of them are Chinese looking for spring nearby, and there are also many Europeans and Americans, because it is too famous, Kabukicho is too international, making it a mixed place in a sense.
A great place for tail travel.
Midong walked fast all the way, and also stared at the time.
She had already calculated that if she could touch that person's wallet in twenty minutes, it would be worth how much she could earn, and the loan shark would be worth paying back every penny in time. But if the tracking times out, she will definitely be able to touch her wallet eventually, but she will have to suffer even more losses.
I ran from this street to the loan application office, ran for fifteen or sixteen minutes, and arrived a second before I got off work. In fact, if she hadn't been robbed in front of the ATM, Meidong would have already repaid this month's money by this time.
"Ten minutes to go."
"And ...... Nine minutes. ”
Mi Dong hung her shoulder bag, passed through the layers of crowds, and slowly approached the middle-aged man step by inch. But the other party's speed is not slow, and he is indeed evading something, and he even trotted many times on the way, and even left Meidong away a lot!
"Is this bastard having an affair and being stalked by his wife, or is he looking for a wife who is working part-time? Or did Xiao San come to work part-time, he ran to find Xiao San, and then found that he was followed by his wife? ”
Midong followed silently, even though her heart was constantly grooved, her face was expressionless, and even her fast pace was elegant. After passing through five custom shops and three performing arts bars, she saw that the man suddenly turned around and went into a certain alleyway.
"Debt dodging? Hunted by a gang? It doesn't matter, it's going to be scum anyway. Six minutes to go, see what you can surprise me. ”
Midong easily defined the other party, and then walked into the alley calmly and quickly with a shoulder high and a proud head.
The flow of people vanished, the neon lights vanished, and there was only a dark, narrow road that ran through the back of the two commercial buildings.
The man actually ran into here, which made Midong a little surprised, and the fact that she had just been robbed also made her a little frightened. But time waits for no one, and after a little hesitation, Meidong was speechless, gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, and walked in slowly.
It is difficult to go to the blue sky in Shushan, the road is long and the road is long. With the painful experience of less than half an hour ago, even though Midong should be a strong person now, she also walked cautiously. This will certainly delay a little longer, but since everyone is here, it is even more foolish to give up halfway.
A moment later, she turned a corner.
This is where the laneway ends, followed by an open field and a downhill road with a bridge that happens to cross at the bottom of the slope. Directly below the bridge, an earthmoving truck is parked here, which is actually a construction site.
But that's not what Midon pays attention to.
The man she was tracking was two minutes ahead, even with the help of her slowing down later. Who would have thought that such a thing could happen in less than 120 seconds.
Midong stared ahead in disbelief.
Five meters in front of the earthmoving car, the middle-aged man was lying on his back on the ground, with a scarlet blood stain dripping from his chest.
