Chapter 22: More than a dozen lives
It may be because of the weekend, Haidilao has already been full of all kinds of diners, Wu Shaodong looked at the endless waiting line at a glance, and habitually frowned.
"Xiaoying, do you have to wait?"
Chen Xinying pouted and said coquettishly, "People just want to eat this, brother-in-law, we can get the number first, and then drink some free drinks in the waiting area, eat some snacks and wait slowly, anyway, I'm not very hungry now."
Wu Shaodong looked at the crowd in the waiting area, and reluctantly tried to persuade again, "There is no place to sit, why don't you change your home?" I think Brother Xiaohui is also good. ”
Chen Xinying didn't comply, saying that Haidilao service was good, the food was fresh, there were free services and snacks, and small gifts or something, anyway, she just didn't want to change places.
Wu Shaodong had no choice but to pick up the number, and Chen Xinying found a table in the waiting area, took 2 cups of black plum juice and a plate of fruit, and sat and waited for the number.
After sitting in the waiting area for less than five minutes, Chen Xinying ran to the service area to clean her mobile phone for free, and after cleaning her mobile phone, she went to shine her shoes for free, and after shining her shoes, she went to get a free nail art...... In this way, Wu Shaodong was stunned and watched Chen Xinying running around happily, thinking that the real purpose of your coming to Haidilao is this......
More than an hour later, Wu Shaodong finally heard the service desk call his number, and he breathed a sigh of relief and called Chen Xinying, who was reluctant to give up in the service area. After the front desk reported the number to the waiter, the two were quickly brought to the table.
After the shabu-shabu was served, Chen Xinying was reluctant to sit face-to-face with Wu Shaodong, so she had to sit side by side on the sofa seat with him, saying that it was convenient for her brother-in-law to help her pick up the vegetables. But in fact, she basically didn't use chopsticks much for this meal, and patronized to help Wu Shaodong blanch vegetables.
Wu Shaodong looked at Chen Xinying, who was sitting beside him, stretching his neck, and helping him with mutton slices in the hot pot with a serious face, and said lovingly, "Xiaoying, don't care about me, you can eat it yourself."
Chen Xinying put a piece of mutton into his dish, put down the chopsticks, hugged Wu Shaodong's arm and said, "It's good for me to watch my brother-in-law eat, and the biggest pleasure in eating hot pot is not to eat, but to shabu."
Listening to her fallacies, Wu Shaodong was speechless for a while, thinking that according to what you said, what does it mean that you still run to the service area to try all the free projects you can try.
After eating Haidilao, Chen Xinying had to watch a movie noisily, Wu Shaodong thought that since the establishment of the Thirteenth Branch, he had indeed not accompanied her well, and promised Xiaoyi to take good care of her, but in fact, many times it was Xiaoying who was taking care of herself, or she owed Xiaoying, so she nodded and agreed to her request.
In Wanda Cinema upstairs in Haidilao, Chen Xinying picked a romance film titled "Love Without Results" and chose the last row of seats. Throughout the movie, Chen Xinying was holding Wu Shaodong's arm, leaning on his shoulder and crying, while Wu Shaodong yawned and looked at the sadomasochistic love of the hero and heroine in the movie and fell asleep.
After watching the movie, the two casually walked around the mall, and Wu Shaodong drove her back to the rented house. Downstairs in the rental house, Chen Xinying asked Wu Shaodong with a red face if he wanted to go upstairs for a cup of tea, Wu Shaodong looked at his watch and refused, "It's more than ten o'clock, there is a task tomorrow, so I won't go up, you should rest early." Then he drove away under Chen Xinying's resentful eyes.
In the Jinxiu Road community, Xue Feng opened the curtain in the bedroom on the second floor, and secretly observed the window with a nervous expression. After looking at it for a while, he lowered the curtains, walked back to the bed with heavy steps, and sat down. Grab a bottle of beer on the bedside table, tilt your head and gulp it down.
"Cough, cough, cough..." The beer was poured too violently, and he was choked in his throat without paying attention, and the corners of Xue Feng's mouth drooled, and he couldn't stop coughing. After a while, he relieved himself, wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and pulled out a pack of 555 cigarettes from the side of his pillow. He took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, pressed the disposable lighter hard, and tried for a while without lighting it. Xue Feng angrily ripped off the cigarette at the corner of his mouth and slammed it into the floor along with the lighter, and then fell on the bed all of a sudden, staring at the ceiling with a dull gaze.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the bedside table rang, Xue Feng lay on the bed and grabbed it, looked at the number, and hesitated for a moment to pick it up.
"Didn't you tell me not to contact me?" Xue Feng asked weakly into his phone.
A hoarse voice came from the phone, "I just asked you what you said yesterday, how did you think about it?" ”
"I haven't thought about it yet, what are you anxious about!"
"Oh? Is it that tangled? ”
"You know what! I've started squatting outside my house! Xue Feng angrily roared at his phone.
"What's the matter, do they have proof?"
"There is no evidence now, but I can't say that there will be evidence that day! More than a dozen lives, you should kill chickens! It's going to die! ”
"Hehehehehe, you're scared! You've been my idol since I was a child! I didn't expect Brother Xue to be scared, I was so surprised. ”
Obviously, the hoarse laughter on the mobile phone stimulated Xue Feng, and under strong pressure, he said to the mobile phone with red eyes, "What am I afraid of!" I'm a human trafficker at best, and you're a capital offense! ”
"You're not afraid, I'm even more afraid, people will eventually die, sooner or later. But speaking of which, you abducted and sold more than a dozen people, some of them are people with criminal records, and one of them can't run away indefinitely, and you are almost 40 now, even if you behave well in prison and be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment, but wait for you to ...... out."
"Shut up! It's not because of you! ”
"Oh? You didn't say that when you begged me for food. ”
"Then TM I thought you were going to get a few to play around, who knew you were going to do that kind of thing!"
"Okay, let's not mention these old things, I'll just ask if I can do it?" The owner of the hoarse voice obviously felt that it was no fun to stimulate Xue Feng again, and directly put forward the purpose.
Xue Feng was silent for a moment and said, "No, the risk is too great!" At least 500,000! ”
The hoarse voice smiled mockingly, "Hehe, the price of disposable things, are you kidding me?" One price, plus 50,000! ”
"Wait for my call!" Xue Feng took a deep breath and hung up the phone directly.
Cutting off the phone, Xue Feng picked up the cigarette and lighter from the floor, lit the cigarette smoothly this time, and after smoking 2 cigarettes in a row, he calmed down, got up and walked out of the bedroom, and climbed the stairs to the third floor.
Entering the attic on the third floor, Xue Feng turned on the light, walked to the corner of the attic where the debris was stacked, and turned out a square plastic storage box with a length and width of half a meter from the bottom of the debris pile.
Opening the storage box, a roll of medical gauze, a small bottle of unknown liquid, a pair of cotton gloves, a bundle of nylon rope, an old-fashioned military thorn, and a vice were found inside.
After putting these things in an old travel bag at the entrance of the attic staircase, he turned off the light and returned to the bedroom on the second floor with the travel bag turned off.
Throwing the travel bag on the bed, then opening the wardrobe and taking out a small trolley suitcase, after opening the trolley suitcase, Xue Feng counted the stacks of RMB inside, a total of 670,000. After taking out 20,000 of them and putting them in a travel bag, he closed the trolley case and walked to the kitchen on the first floor.
After entering the kitchen, he removed the square table against the wall of the kitchen, cleared out the pots and pots under the square table, lifted a few floor tiles, and a half-meter-deep square pit appeared in front of him. Xue Feng stuffed the trolley box into the square pit, covered it with floor tiles, moved the square table back to its original position, and stuffed the pots and pots back under the square table.
After disposing of the trolley suitcase, Xue Feng returned to the bedroom on the second floor again and stuffed the travel bag under the bed. Lighting a cigarette, he walked to the window and opened the curtains slightly, looked at the shadow under the telephone pole opposite, and smiled contemptuously.
