In the late autumn of the third year of Liu Zhu's entry.

Liu Zhu was sitting in the horn and was plucking his beard in a simple way by wrapping two strings together, because there were no props and sharp weapons in the prison, so many prisoners used this way to tidy up their appearance.

Just when Liu Zhu was plucking his beard and enjoying himself, the iron door of the trumpet was opened, and then the discipline leaned his head and shouted at Liu Zhu, "Liu Zhu, pick up the newcomer!" ”

Liu Zhu hurriedly put down the rope in his hand and shouted, "I know discipline!" ”

After the correctional roll call one by one, a number of people with their heads bowed walked in, all of whom were prisoners who had just been taken in.

Originally, Liu Zhu didn't feel anything when he looked at the prisoners who walked in, but after five or six people walked in in a row, Liu Zhu felt that something was wrong.

"Brother Zhu, why did you come out with so many people?" The prisoner in the same cell asked Liu Zhu in a low voice.

"Report discipline!" Liu Zhu opened his mouth and shouted.

"Say!"

"There are so many people, we can't live in the number!"

"I can't live and think of a way, now that the outside is starting to crack down, I have to come in a few if it's not good!"

Liu Zhu and the other prisoners were all stunned after hearing the words of discipline!

That night, Liu Zhu did not embarrass the new prisoners, on the contrary, he also asked people to take out a few mattresses and spread them on the ground for the new prisoners to live, in fact, the prison is different from the detention center, maybe the detention center also needs to educate the newcomers after welcoming them, so that they can understand the rules, but there are usually few such things in prisons.

On the one hand, because those who don't understand the rules already understand what is going on in the detention center, these prisoners are too lazy to clean you up when you enter the prison, and you will be done with what you should do, on the other hand, because there are three kinds of people in the detention center, the first of these three kinds of people will not be released after staying for long, and the other is because of the sentence, detention time, and other reasons do not allocate prison people, and the last one is to be sent to prison for re-education through labor. This kind of person is often a prisoner who has committed a heinous crime or has gone through the cram school of the so-called detention center and officially started his own study career, so there is no need for you to clean up this kind of person, and don't watch any film and television dramas to clean up people at every turn, new prisoners have to be bullied, in fact, this kind of thing can appear anywhere, but many people in prison or in the military will expand him infinitely.

Today, after Liu Zhu picked up the newcomers, they were all properly settled, and then began to ask them one by one where they were from, and only then did he know that half of these people were natives of City C, and the other ones were all from the other five counties.

Liu Zhu sat by the window and took out a cigarette and put it on his mouth, and a prisoner who could come quickly took out the battery, the steel wool ball for washing dishes and a small piece of cotton from under his pillow, trotted to Liu Zhu's side barefoot, stretched out his hand to light a cigarette for Liu Zhu, and then kept waving his hand beside Liu Zhu to drive the smoke out of the window.

"The wind is so loud outside, why haven't I seen a single acquaintance? You've all changed sex, are you going to stop like that? Liu Zhu looked at the window with a smile and said.

After Liu Zhu took a few puffs of cigarettes, he handed the remaining half of the cigarette to the prisoner who was fanning the wind, and lay down to sleep.

Early the next morning, Liu Zhu took the prisoners in his prison to work with the correction, and in the workshop, Liu Zhu sat in a separate small workstation, smoking a cigarette and humming a little song.

At this time, several prisoners came to Liu Zhu's side together, looked at Liu Zhu and shouted, "Brother Zhu! ”

Liu Zhu raised his head and looked at the prisoners in front of him, frowned, and asked, "I don't know you, what are you doing?" ”

"Brother Zhu, before we came in, Brother Peng and Brother Peng both said that they would say hello to you when they came in!" The young man at the head said.

"What do you say hello to me? I'm a prisoner! Liu Zhu laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Brother Zhu, we have heard about you since childhood, and we are going to follow you when we come in!" The young prisoner at the head looked at Liu Zhu and said.

"There are good and bad reputations outside, don't look at the past and look at the present! What else does a prisoner have to follow, stop working and get by, it's quite miserable to catch up with you and beat you hard! After Liu Zhu finished speaking to the prisoner with a smile, he snuffed out the cigarette butt in his mouth, then stood up and stretched his waist before turning around and leaving.

Since Liu Zhu came here, although Lin Zi has not come to see Liu Zhu, he has asked people to come over to save money for Liu Zhu every once in a while, five or six hundred when it is less, and thousands when it is more, all of which are used to deal with the relationship between the upper and lower levels, and whether it is the old prisoners or the new prisoners, they all have a good impression of Liu Zhu.

Where does this feeling come from? It was because Liu Zhu did Lao Bian at the beginning, so Liu Zhu did not suffer after coming here, and because of the relationship between Wang Fatzi and Zhu Qiming, plus Lin Zi's economic relationship, Liu Zhu was the most awesome prisoner at that time.

At the end of '83, Liu Zhu was released two months ahead of schedule because he had performed well at the end of his sentence and was just in time for the '83 Crackdown, so Liu Zhu was released two months early.

Liu Zhu couldn't wait to come out, so the discipline asked him if he came out early in the morning overnight, and there was a buffer to inform the family, or when he came out directly in the afternoon that day, Liu Zhu directly chose to return in the afternoon without hesitation.

Before Liu Zhu was released from prison, he gave all the prison coins he still had to prisoners and corrections he knew, and then Liu Zhu, who didn't take anything, walked out of the gate of Kuancheng Prison with the remaining 100 yuan in his pocket.

Liu Zhu looked at the sky outside the prison and took two breaths of fresh air and was a little drunk, and then Liu Zhu wanted to find a three-donkey to go home, but at this time Liu Zhu found that the three donkeys that could be seen on the streets and alleys were gone, and they were replaced by a clean and upright Lada car, which read "Dingsheng Taxi Company!" ”

Liu Zhu smiled and waved his hand to take a car, and after getting in the car, the driver asked, "Hello, where are we going?" ”

"How much does it cost to go to your company?" Liu Zhu sat in the car and asked softly.

"Hehe, I'll be in the place in a while, you look at this meter, just give me as much as he shows!" The driver looked at Liu Zhu and explained.

"Oh, there's a machine, huh? Isn't the boss of your company Wang Minglin? Liu Zhu reached out and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and put it in his mouth.

"That's right, there is a taxi company in City C, the boss is Wang Minglin, little brother, you don't see that you are very old, how many years have you been in it?" The driver asked quite talkatively.

"I haven't been here for a few years, almost three years, how can you tell that I've just come out?" Liu Zhu asked suspiciously.

"We're all squatting here, don't you see that we're all in line? No one cut in line, no one is going anywhere, and whoever goes, so I saw you come out at a glance just now! ”

Liu Zhu smiled and smoked a cigarette, chatted with the chatty driver for a while, and then came to the door of Dingsheng Taxi Company.

Liu Zhu got out of the car after giving the car money, and then looked at the bustling streets and spacious small western-style buildings that were obviously more prosperous than three years ago, Liu Zhu sighed that time flies, time is like an arrow, and he also sighs that the world is hot and cold!

A few minutes later, the front desk of the company looked at Liu Zhu, who had a head of stubble, and asked, "Do you have an appointment?" ”

"Nope!" Liu Zhu said stunned.

"I'm sorry sir, I can't inform you if you don't make an appointment, so why don't you give Mr. Wang a call? Do you have his pager? The reception girl at the front desk asked politely.

"What's that?" Liu Zhu asked a little confused.

"BP machine, pager!"

"I don't have anything, just tell him that Liu Zhu is here, he will definitely be able to see me!" Liu Zhu said persistently.

"I'm sorry sir, but we can't let you in!"

Liu Zhu was a little skeptical, wondering why it was so difficult for him to meet Wang Minglin, a person who grew up together since childhood, and what kind of machine this little girl said, he didn't understand or heard of it, he seemed to have heard about it when he was inside, but it didn't have to be outside, so Liu Zhu didn't care.

Just when Liu Zhu was talking to the front desk lady and the donkey, Ma San walked in with two people.

Ma San frowned and asked at the front desk, "What are you arguing about here?" What's going on? ”

"Mr. Ma, this gentleman wants to see Mr. Wang, but he didn't make an appointment!" The front desk said politely to Ma San.

Liu Zhu turned to look at Ma San, and Ma San was stunned for a moment after glancing at Liu Zhu, and then blurted out a sentence "Ten thousand people slaughtered Emperor Liu?" ”

Liu Zhu hadn't heard anyone call himself like that for three years, so he was a little confused for a while!

"Isn't it Brother Zhu? Liu Zhu? Ma San waved his hand at the front desk, and then walked up to Liu Zhu and asked.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Liu Zhu asked politely.

"My name is Ma San, and I am the brother of Brother Minglin! You can just call me junior! When did Brother Zhu come back? Carry the bag to my brother Zhu! Ma San's enthusiastic attitude made Liu Zhu a little embarrassed for a while.

"I just came back, and I wanted to look at the forest, is he there?" Liu Zhu asked.

"Here, Brother Zhuzhu, I'll take you up!" Ma San enthusiastically took Liu Zhu's hand and walked directly towards the office on the fifth floor of the top floor of the company.
