Chapter 40: Gray (Favorites, Recommendations)
At that time, there was no professional league in China, and the players lived on the collective meals of the sports team, and many people were tempted to participate in match-fixing due to the difficult conditions. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the scale of gambling was not large at that time, and the amount of money involved in each game was not much, in that era when everyone was poor, sometimes one game of gambling was enough to ruin people's wealth.
I have had a lot of hardships since I was snacked, and I love and hate money. His adoptive father had a saying that he often remembered, "Even if you beg for food, your waist must be straight." is such a sentence, as well as the personality quality of the adoptive father, which deeply affects the life values of staying and seeking fate.
For this reason, he has never been involved in match-fixing, and he is also disgusted with his teammates who play match-fixing.
For him, who is pretentious and unwilling to cooperate, his teammates have revenge in addition to isolation.
After another lack of cooperation made the dealer lose a lot of money, the dealer conspired with his teammates to show him some color and make him obedient.
Under their conspiracy, Zuqiuyuan was kidnapped by a group of well-known local underworld forces, and after a round of beatings, Zuqiuyuan was still persevering. couldn't get him to give in, and the other party didn't withdraw from him for a while, until he met the person who affected him...
Their eldest is surnamed Joe, and he is one of the two major local gangs. Boss Qiao is known for his ferocity and ruthless way of doing things, and he has made many enemies. Their two sons died in the assassination of the enemy, and the only remaining daughter is also reported to have suffered an accident some time ago.
That night, in an abandoned factory, Boss Qiao, who smelled of alcohol, came to Zu Qiuyuan, who had just been hoisted. The subordinates all knew that the boss had been extremely irritable recently due to family affairs, and knew that they would definitely be scolded if they hadn't done it for so long, so they bowed their heads one by one and kept silent.
Boss Joe knew what was going on at a glance. I saw him casually pick up a thick iron rod, put his chin on it, provoked his head, and asked, "I won't talk nonsense, the last chance, do you listen or not?" ”
"You want me to go along with the dirt and make dreams! Bah! Zu Qiuyuan fiercely spat a mouthful of bloody phlegm on Boss Qiao's face. The subordinates knew that something was going to happen, and they all felt a chill down the back of this stinky boy who didn't know the times.
"Hmm Hahaha..."
Boss Qiao was laughing, he put down the iron rod, and laughed without wiping the dirty water on his face. The laughter was chilling, and the whole dilapidated factory echoed with it, foreshadowing the tragedy that was about to happen.
The laughter stopped, and Boss Qiao tightened his grip on the iron rod and slammed it into the knee of his right foot with a swift and precise blow. A heart-rending scream made several of his timid subordinates tremble while covering their ears.
"See? Refusing to obey makes him unqualified to make trouble again! "Boss Qiao turned his back to his subordinates, but he was teaching them a lesson.
"If you are insulted, you should return the favor!" Then, Boss Qiao pulled the iron rod back again, holding the bottom of the rod with both hands, watching his green muscles burst out, and a heavier blow was gaining momentum...
They knew that the terrible torture was about to happen again, but they did not dare to look at it.
A strong wind blew through the head of the foot, and the iron rod stopped in the air less than two centimeters from his temple. Zu Qiuyuan's eyes remained closed, and Boss Qiao stopped the blow that could kill him.
"Boy, count yourself lucky, my wife asked me to leave a line in everything before she died, this time it is a warning, next time I dare not have such good luck."
The next morning, outside the gate of the sports team, Zu Qiuyuan was pushed off the car. Several teammates involved in match-fixing came to him first, smiling at him with disgusting faces. At this time, Zu Qiuyuan was powerless to fight back, and he only felt extremely disgusted by everything in front of him, and he only felt that his sky was about to collapse.
He was taken to the hospital, and he was never visited as an orphan except for a visit from his coach and several leaders. The doctor told him that the injury to his right foot was very serious, and it would take at least half a year to recover after the operation, and whether he could return to the court depended on his recovery.
After the operation, the white hospital and the blue sky were all gray in the eyes of Zuqiuyuan. He worries about whether his right foot will recover, whether he can get back on the pitch, whether he can get the national team called up again, and whether his dream has come to naught.
In this gray day, I don't know how many days passed like a dead body. Until the early hours of one morning, everyone in the ward was asleep, and Zu Qiuyuan couldn't sleep because of insomnia, and he often had to take sleeping pills to fall asleep during this time. Just as he was getting up to look for the sleeping pills the doctor had given him, he suddenly heard the sound of rapid footsteps outside the hallway. Subconsciously looking up at the corridor, he saw a person, a person who could make his heart tighten, Boss Joe!
Boss Qiao and his entourage hurriedly walked outside the ward where Zu Qiuyuan was. Hiding in the shadows, they did not find it. Out of curiosity, or the blush of the enemy, he leaned on his crutches, stepped up his right foot, which was held in place by the steel frame, and followed the footsteps.
After several hardships, Zu Qiuyuan dragged his right foot and finally reached the 2nd stairwell, he stopped, and Boss Qiao and his party seemed to stay in the ward on this floor. This is a private ward in the inpatient department, and the people who live there are generally wealthy. Zu Qiuyuan peeked out of the stairwell, there were two people guarding outside room 231, and a group of people a little farther away. There was a quarrel in the room, and he didn't dare to get closer, for fear of being discovered, so he could only listen carefully from a distance. Due to the distance, the content of the quarrel could not be heard at all, but judging from the sound, it seemed that Boss Qiao was arguing with a woman.
It didn't take long for Boss Qiao to walk out of the ward angrily. After coming out, he turned around and told the two people who were guarding the door, and then took the group of people who came to the other side of the corridor. Zu Qiuyuan was curious about the people living in the room, but the two bodyguards outside the door had to give up.
The next day, Zu Qiuyuan came to the second floor again, and he saw the patient in room 231 named Qiao Chuchu from the list in the hands of the nurse who delivered the medicine. Seeing this name, Zu Qiuyuan felt very familiar, and he vaguely remembered that when he was kidnapped, the little brothers who took care of him had mentioned the name "Miss Chu Chu" during small talk. From their conversation, it was learned that Qiao Chuchu should be the daughter of Boss Qiao, this girl was born incompatible with her father, who was a gangster boss, so she wanted to take the police exam. Fortunately, it did not pass due to background issues. When her father did evil everywhere, she did good deeds everywhere, especially helping those who had been hurt by her father. Because her daughter often destroys her own good deeds, Boss Qiao can only send her abroad. It's been a few years, and if it weren't for the murder of her two brothers a few days ago, she wouldn't have returned to China easily. But when she came back this time, she showed even more hatred for this evil father.
After another heated argument, she ran away from home, despite her father's warnings of danger. When she was found by her mother, the enemy also found them, and heard that the two had been horribly mutilated, and there were rumors that they were dead. From the conversation of Boss Qiao that day, I learned that Qiao Chuchu's mother had passed away, and Qiao Chuchu seemed to have retained her life, but it is conceivable that she would definitely not be happy if she saved her life.
While the doctor was on his rounds and the two bodyguards standing guard were distracted, Zu Qiuyuan quietly walked through Door 231, and he looked through the gap in the empty door. saw a scene that he will never forget.
