The semi-slope mentioned by the foreman is the place where the foreign population in S City focuses the most, which is located at the junction of the suburbs, and the local residents are building their own houses at will, and many small pigeon sheds are built for rent to migrant workers, especially those who work as casual workers, and over time, this area of the half-slope has become a paradise for the migrant population.
It was not very difficult to find the house where Gangwazi lived, and more than 20 of them collectively rented four houses to live in, plus they were all in the same renovation team, going in and out together, eating and living together, and no one knew them in the middle of the slope.
Appeared in front of Yang Zi is a closed iron door made of waste water pipes, these craftsmen, they made full use of the terrain, started to build a courtyard wall out, surrounded the four houses, and poured a platform, usually close the door of the yard, it becomes a small world of its own, at this time, the door of the yard is tightly closed, there is no movement inside, I can't see whether there is anyone there.
"Is anyone there?" Yang Zi shouted loudly through the iron door inside, but no one answered, only an empty wind responded to him, blowing a discarded plastic bag in the corner, which seemed even more silent and empty.
Yang Zi turned his ears and listened carefully for a while, he always felt that someone was hiding in a corner of the house and peeping outside, and after waiting for a while, still no one answered, Yang Zi continued to shout again, and waited patiently outside the door.
I don't know how long it took for a man's voice to come from the closed door: "Coming, coming." ”
The voice was unusually tired and awkward, sounding as if he was seriously ill, and sounding unusually weak through the door. Yang Zi and Haizi glanced at each other, and the thoughts in their hearts were the same: it must be the Gangwazi mentioned by Liu Laosan......
The door opened, and a young man with a pale face and deep sunken eyes appeared in the courtyard with heavy steps, he squinted his eyes and looked at this side, and asked hesitantly: "Who are you looking for?" ”
Yang Zi raised the paper in his hand through the iron door: "We are here to check the temporary residence permit!" "Before coming here just now, he and Haizi had already thought of countermeasures, in the name of checking the temporary residence permit, first contact Gangwazi to see if there was anything abnormal, stabilize him first and then wait for the opportunity to make further plans.
Sure enough, although the young man inside was impatient, he still walked over slowly, took out the key and opened the lock on the courtyard door, opened the door in disbelief, and squinted his eyes and looked at Yang Zi and them weakly.
Yang Zi had clearly seen that the shoes on the young man's feet were a pair of tourist shoes that could not be seen, the surface of the shoes was cracked with small holes, and the edges of the shoes were also very worn, and the young man was exactly about 1.7 meters tall, and his body was thin, and he seemed to weigh about 60 kilograms.
While waiting for him to open the door, Yang Zi looked at his hands, although they were full of tears, but those scars were old, they had already scabbed, and no fresh wounds were seen.
Hai Zi took half a step forward, and squeezed half of his shoulder from the young man's side into the courtyard gate, he was afraid that this young man would not let him and Yang Zi in, but instead saw that the wind was wrong and closed the door, which would be a failure.
Fortunately, the young man had no intention of not letting them in, and when he saw that Haizi was about to squeeze in, he took a step back, gave way to the door, watched Haizi and Yang Zi enter the courtyard, and led them to one of the rooms.
His steps were unsteady, he walked a little staggering, he looked like he was drunk, and in the cold weather, he probably got up from the bed and opened the door, only wearing a cotton coat on his body, and it seemed that the whole person was weak and couldn't help the wind, which caused an illusion to Yang Zi, as if a strong wind blew, and this person would be blown away.
The young man took Yang Zi and them into a room with a large bunk, there was a place on the bunk where the pillows and bedding were open, and it could be seen that someone had slept just now, there was no fire in the house, and as soon as they entered the room, they felt a smell mixed with the smell of the human body, but the room was not airtight, and it was obviously much warmer than outside.
Yang Zi and Hai Zi were arranged by the young man to sit down at a table of eight immortals facing the bed, and the young man didn't ask them if they wanted to drink water, but just climbed into the bed, got into the quilt, moved a few steps to the wall, sat down next to the wall, and didn't speak, panting low as if they were very tired.
After he sat down, Yang Zi asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Wang Guigang." The young man replied without any resistance, half-bowing his head, very cooperatively.
Hearing him say his name, Yang Zi and Haizi exchanged glances, it seems that this is the Gangwa that Foreman Tian said.
"How old are you this year?"
“26。”
"How long have you been here? What do you usually do? ”
"I moved here with my fellow villagers in August last year, and I have been here for more than two years, and I usually follow my brother to do renovation projects."
"Your brother? Do you see if it's this person? As he spoke, Yang Zi lit up Wang Yafei's simulation image in front of Gang Wazi and asked him to identify it.
As soon as Wang Gui heard what Yang Zi said, he raised his head suspiciously and looked at the simulated portrait erected in front of him, and after he glanced at it, he raised his voice as if he was surprised: "This is my brother, how can you have a photo of him?" ”
Yang Zi and Haizi exchanged glances again, but they didn't speak, Yang Zi sent the portrait to Gangwazi again, and asked him again: "Are you sure this is your brother?" ”
"Yes!" Gangwazi looked unswerving: "I just played with him a few days ago, how could I admit my mistake." ”
Yang Zi nodded, put the portrait away, and said casually, "When did you go to your brother's place to play?" Who are you going with? ”
Gangwazi didn't notice at all that the person who came to check the temporary residence permit could get involved with his brother, and still replied honestly: "I went on the 28th of last month, when my cousin came to me from my hometown, saying that he wanted to find a job, and he was looking for news of his sister casually, I thought my brother was our contractor, and he must still need manpower, so he took my cousin to my brother." ”
"Your cousin? What is his last name? How does it look? Yang Zi asked eagerly.
Gang Wazi seemed to have just reacted, looked at Yang Zi in a daze, and asked him for a long time: "Didn't you come to check the temporary residence permit?" Why do you ask about this? ”
"Oh, that's the case, you migrant workers in the city are what we have to care about and love, and we also have to strengthen management, so we have to ask more about the new people in the city, and care more about it, so that the system can be implemented." Yang Zi replied casually, and looked at Gang Wazi with a sincere face.
This explanation obviously relieved Gang Wazi, he nodded movingly, and expressed his understanding of Yang Zi's work: "It should be, let the cadres worry more, we migrant workers can have the current welfare benefits, it is the government's care and love, thank you so much!" ”
Yang Zi didn't want to talk to him too much, so he quickly changed the topic: "Can you tell us about your cousin's situation?" Where is he now? Also here? ”
"Oh, so to speak. My cousin's name is Li Ermao, twenty-three years old this year, alas, it's disgusting, I don't know where he went, I went to my brother's that day, we drank some wine, I don't know how I got drunk, I don't know how I came back in the end, I woke up as if I was seriously ill, until now I am soft, I have no strength, and I don't see my cousin's figure, I also said wait for me to get better, go to my brother to ask. Gangwazi said to Yang Zi honestly.
"Your cousin hasn't been in touch with you since the 28th? Can you remember what happened to you at your brother's house that day? Yang Zi's mind quickly turned around a few times, his cousin hadn't appeared since that day, and his suspicion of committing the crime was too great, maybe it was his cousin who fled in panic after killing someone.
Gangwazi held his head with his hand, there was a burst of throbbing pain, and he buried his head in the palm of his hand for a long time before he slowly spoke: "I don't know where this kid ran to, I have been asleep until now since I came back that night, dizzy and want to vomit, and I have no strength at all." ”
"I remember that day......" he said, holding his head and struggling, lost in his memory.
"Maowa, when you get to my brother's place, you can talk to him and ask him to take you down to do things, so that you can have a place to do it first, and you can find news about your sister." Gangwa deliberately told Li Ermao, who was following behind her, as she walked.
Li Ermao followed closely behind Gang Wazi, for fear that he would not be able to see him if he was not careful, he was the first time to come to the city, S City was a strange and interesting place for him, he followed Gang Wazi and walked towards Gang Wazi's cousin's house, who was famous in his hometown.
In his hometown before, in fact, he and Wang Yafei have met more than once, and they all know each other, but after such a long time, although it is said that there is also a relationship between Gangwa and Wang Yafei, there will be no relationship between Gangwa and Wang Yafei, so when he came, he asked Gangwa to say hello to Wang Yafei and left him to do small work, so that he could also look for news of his sister while working.
My sister also came out to work, and there has been no news for a long time, but the family's urgency is not that she doesn't send back money, she has been out for a few years, and she has sent a lot of money back every year, and the life of the family has slowly become more solid, and she doesn't need to send her hard money back, but she said that she found a man in the city, but there was no news for so long, and her parents were not at ease, so she volunteered to come out to find her sister.
I don't know how my sister is, I haven't seen her for so long, is she more beautiful? Li Ermao thought silently in his heart while walking behind Gang Wazi.
