The shopkeeper's sudden invitation made Yu Siqi a little surprised, you must know that just ten minutes ago, he was still ignoring it. What kind of reason made him interested in a 'beggar' like himself, I'm afraid only he knows.

But Yu Siqi didn't intend to accept the kindness of the shopkeeper, and he continued to retreat towards the door, and said politely: "Still no, I'm in a hurry." ”

"Oh... That's it. The shopkeeper shrugged his shoulders and said, "I was going to drive you there." ”

"What did you say?" Yu Siqi, who pushed the door open again and was about to leave, put his foot back and turned around to ask.

"There are some things that are inconvenient to talk about in front of this, if you want to know more about the details, you might as well follow me to the back." The shopkeeper walked up to the door and locked it, saying, "Let's go, I know you're not the one to get there on foot." ”

Under the half-push and half-delivery of the store owner, Yu Siqi came to the back half of this convenience store, which was a bit like a warehouse for goods, and the light was extremely dark. But fortunately, the shopkeeper quickly turned on the lights, and deliberately moved two large boxes over and said, "Sit." ”

In the face of such 'enthusiasm' of the shop owner, in fact, Yu Siqi's heart was still a little panicked. But after all, he has seen a lot of people in the world, so it is not particularly difficult for him to pretend to be calm.

After he sat down, the shopkeeper who was sitting on the other box leaned forward slightly and said, "Introduce yourself first, you should have a name." My name is Zhao Yong, I am the owner of this shop, and I am also a veteran. ”

"Yu Siqi, currently unemployed." Yu Siqi said flatly.

"I can see it," Zhao Yong stared at Yu Siqi's dirty outfit and said, "You may think that my behavior is a little abnormal, to be honest, even I think I am probably hot-headed." But listen to me and you'll soon understand that we can help each other. ”

"Let's hear it," Yu Siqi wasn't really interested in nonsense, he was more concerned about the vehicle that could get him through.

"You see, I don't care if you're going to Tangjiawan to scavenge or go treasure hunting." Zhao Yong stretched out his hand and said, "That's all your freedom, but you may not know that it has long been under military control." ”

"Military control?" Yu Siqi asked in surprise.

"Yes, there is a small force that has set up a makeshift post outside to prevent anyone from approaching." Zhao Yong held his forehead and said: "After such a big disaster, Tangjiawan has always been in a special area that cannot be accessed. Of course, it is said that it is to prevent people from being troubled by secondary disasters, which are all nonsense to deceive children. ”

"What are you talking about?" Yu Siqi asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just said it, I'm a veteran. And very unfortunately, it was my former comrades-in-arms who carried out the blockade there. Zhao Yong waved his hand and said, "Actually, it's all up to this, and I'm not afraid to tell you in detail." Like you, I have a reason why I have to go to Tangjiawan. ”

"How do you know that I must go to Tangjiawan," Yu Siqi became alert.

"Son, I'm not a good psychologist though. But after all, I am a soldier, or I used to be a soldier, and I am not a talent, and I am still the best soldier in our company. I can roughly guess what other people are thinking, and from the first time I saw you, I knew that you and I were both after the same thing. Zhao Yong said confidently.

"Not necessarily," Mr. Yu said.

"Okay, let's be more direct. Do you want to go to Tangjiawan with me, if not... You can walk through it yourself. You know, there's no car going there anymore, unless you're riding your own bike, but I'm guessing you don't have a cell phone, so why pay with that kind of banknote? Zhao Yong expounded on the unfeasible plan that Yu Siqi basically deduced, and persuaded him.

"I take the liberty of asking, did you just say that your former comrades-in-arms happened to be on duty at Tangjiawan. In that case, why don't you just go over by yourself when you have a car and time, and you have to pull me up? Yu Siqi asked suspiciously: "I'm afraid this doesn't make sense." ”

"You're a shrewd businessman." The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "To tell you the truth, it is precisely because they know me that they will not let me go." The reason I'm pulling you in is because I want you to help me distract them so I can drive in. You're a strange face, and they won't be suspicious of you. And you can say that you just accidentally got lost, and the most they can do is limit your personal freedom, and it won't be long. ”

"Doesn't sound like a good job." Yu Siqi understood why the shopkeeper was so concerned about himself, and he planned to use himself as bait.

"Rest assured, they know my car and know my license plate number. As soon as I break in, they will definitely send someone to hunt me down, and then you can take the opportunity to get away. The shopkeeper groped out a plan with various handwriting written on it from a pile of overturned goods and said, "I thought about this plan for five whole days. ”

"What if they split one or two hands to watch over me, and then everyone else goes after you." It's not that Yu Siqi doesn't want to cooperate with him, he has to ensure that his interests are not violated.

"I promise you, once you get rid of their pursuit. I'll just turn back to you, how about it? The shopkeeper asked firmly, "Are you willing to accept such a promise?" ”

In fact, according to Yu Siqi's inner thoughts, he wanted to refuse, because no matter how you look at it, this is not a reliable promise. But he really needed to get to that place as soon as possible, so he let it go.

"Okay, I agree to be your bait, but I'd like to make an extra request." Yu Siqi put his satchel on the ground and said, "Do you have a place here where you can take a bath?" To be honest, I can't stand the smell of my body. ”

"Not really, but I can help you figure it out." The shopkeeper stood up and walked to the utility room at the back of the warehouse and said, "Wait a minute, I'll boil a few buckets of hot water, and you'll be able to wash it there." ”

"That's it," Yu Siqi said, nodding.

"Then it's decided, I'll help you boil the hot water first, you shouldn't have any clothes to wash and change, right?" The shopkeeper asked.

Seeing Yu Siqi shake his head, Zhao Yong paused again, this time he pressed his hands on his temples and slapped them a few times. Then he took a long breath, brought a ladder, put it on the left hand side of Yu Siqi, climbed it up, and said, "Do you want a round neck, or a V-neck?" ”

"It's fine, as long as it's not women's clothing." Yu Siqi smiled and said.

"I'm really sorry, I'm afraid I can't fulfill this little wish of yours." Although Zhao Yong's people had disappeared into the attic, his voice was unusually clear: "After all, we don't provide women's clothes. ”
