These boys are all children of police officers in labor camps, two Tibetans and three Han Chinese.

In fact, the salaries of police officers are also pitifully low, and most of them drag their families with them, so life is still tight.

There aren't many opportunities for children to let go of their bellies and eat meat.

Seeing the steaming mutton, the children's eyes lit up, and the unhappiness of the wrestling failure just now had already been thrown out of the clouds.

There is no need for dishes and chopsticks, the children directly get started, grab the mutton and stuff it into their mouths, like a whirlwind, the plate soon came to the bottom.

Zhang Xiaoning took out all the remaining meat and mutton soup in the pot, except for Cheng Zhong who drank a small bowl of mutton soup, the other meat and soup were all wiped out by the five little guys.

Zhao Ying and Cheng Zhong were still chatting while drinking, and before they knew it, two catties of barley wine had also bottomed out.

Zhao Ying drank too much, and after going to the toilet, she went to sleep in the small tent at the back.

Zhang Xiaoning was still cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks and scrubbing the table.

Cheng Zhong beckoned, and several children came up to him.

They sat cross-legged on the carpet, first introduced themselves, and then prepared to accept what Cheng Zhong called "assisting in the investigation" mission.

The child who wrestled with Cheng Zhong was named Yang Hao, and he was the first to say respectfully:

"Brother Cheng, thank you for inviting us to eat meat! We are all manly husbands, we are willing to lose the bet, if you have anything to order, as long as we can do it, we will never shirk!"

"This afternoon, there was a man of about forty years of age, and he brought a woman from other places, and the woman was a little demented, and they entered the third earth city together.

Please find their place as soon as possible and find out who the man is. ”

Cheng Zhong frowned, and the old god was saying.

"It's not hard. The third Tucheng is the three major teams of the farm, which are now full of 'new workers', there are no prisoners in custody, and the management is not strict, so we can come and go at will, and we often go to play.

If it goes well, I can scout it in the evening and report back to you before class tomorrow. Yang Hao said.

He was the squadron leader of the school's Red Soldier and wore a two-bar armband on his arm.

Yang Hao thinks clearly and speaks very neatly.

"Oh, I only remember it now. I hurried to track down the man and woman to your land, and I still have nowhere to stay. Can anyone help me find a place to stay, and I will pay for the accommodation. ”

Cheng Zhong looked at everyone pleadingly and said.

"Well...... There is a guest house in the field, but it is too far from here, and the people who live are all police officers who come to work on a business trip, and the documents are checked very strictly, so I'm afraid you can't live there. ”

Yang Hao said with some embarrassment.

"I know the old man Ren, the doorman of the three major teams, who is a fellow villager in Sichuan, and he is a very good person. I'll take you over in a moment, and I'll spend the night with him tonight, and it won't cost you." ”

Zhang Xiaoning had finished cleaning up the stove and walked over to say.

"Then thank you Sister Zhang!" Cheng Zhong stood up and said.

He turned to look at a few friends again, and said with a smile:

"Thank you very much for your help!

When you hear that, I'm staying in the guard room of the three teams, and if there's news that you're going to look for me there. If it's time to eat, come to the tent restaurant. Goodbye, everyone!"

Cheng Zhong sent a few children away.

After that, he followed Zhang Xiaoning to the guard room of the three teams.

Unexpectedly, the condition of the guard's room is surprisingly good, with a double bed in the suite and a single bed outside.

The fire was blazing, and the house was warm.

Grandpa Ren was also as enthusiastic as a fire, and he insisted on letting Cheng Zhong go to the double bed in the middle room.

Sitting on the double bed, Cheng Zhong sighed with satisfaction, then took off his cotton clothes and pants and got into the military quilt.

The tension and fatigue of the past two days were completely released, and he slept soundly......

As soon as it was dawn, there was a knock on the door.

Grandpa Ren opened the door, and just wanted to ask who the child at the door was looking for, Cheng Zhong had already shouted loudly in the house:

"Grandpa Ren, he's coming to me, ask him to wait, I'll come out soon. ”

Cheng Zhong tied his coat buttons while pulling Yang Hao to the street.

Yang Hao said very quickly:

"Brother Cheng, I've already investigated it clearly.

The man's name was Wang Jinren, a native of Gansu, who was convicted of rape and gathering a crowd to gamble, and served 10 years in prison.

He now lives in No. 507, the fifth row of staff dormitories.

Yesterday many people saw him leading a woman back.

Around twelve o'clock in the evening, I also went to his house to reconnoitre, and both of them were in the room. ”

Cheng Zhong listened with a serious face, and the words "rapist" and "both parents died" made him frown.

"Damn, what else are you saying that the second elder urged him to pick up people, this guy is obviously sincere in tricking her cousin to come here!"

Cheng Zhong cursed fiercely in his heart at the man who looked a little pitiful.

Seeing that Yang Hao stopped talking, Cheng Zhong tried his best to suppress the anger welling up in his heart, and said to him as kindly as possible:

"Yang Hao, it's really hard for you, thank you!"

Yang Hao stared at Cheng Zhong's face, noticed his previous emotional changes, and was not sure how to deal with it, seeing Cheng Zhong thanking himself with a pleasant face, he hurriedly shook his head and said:

"Brother Cheng, I'm very familiar with this place, and knowing these situations is just a gesture, so you don't need to thank me. We're friends, and if there's anything going on, just tell us!"

Cheng Zhong lowered his head and was silent for a minute or two, then looked up at Yang Hao and said:

"Think about it, is there anything suspicious?"

"I was eavesdropping under the window in the middle of the night, and there was the sound of a man and a woman breathing in the room, and it was obvious that they were both sleeping. Just ......"

"Just what?"

"It seems...... It seems like...... Maybe I'm suspicious. I felt like someone was still staring at number 507, but I didn't see it clearly, and I was a little scared and ran home. “

"Oh, is it?" muttered Cheng Zhong.

For a moment, his heart seemed to be stuffed with torn cotton wool, and a dark cloud quickly enveloped his brow.

After a pause, he struggled to get rid of his troubled thoughts, and said to Yang Hao with a stiff tongue:

"Oops...... You...... It's time for you to go to school, thank you...... Thank you!"

"That'...... Goodbye, big brother!"

After Yang Hao finished speaking, he turned around and ran away.

At this moment, Cheng Zhong already felt that his head was as big as a bucket.

He returned to the guard's room, sat down on the bed in the inner room, made up his mind, and began to think about the matter again:

First of all, he now completely understands that Wang Jinren is not a person on the right path.

He deceived Ma's second wife here, not for the Chinese New Year, nor to help her.

Second, Wang Jinren had already raped her.

This point, since he eavesdropped on Ma Er's house that night, Cheng Zhong has already made a judgment.

Third, Cheng Zhong originally hoped that Wang Jinren wanted to marry that woman as his wife.

After all, it is normal for a man who has been released from prison to marry a widow with a dead husband as his wife, as long as he lives a good life in the future.

If that's the case, of course, Cheng Zhong doesn't want to meddle in this matter.

Fourth, what Cheng Zhong is worried about is that Wang Jinren deceived the woman into selling to others to make a profit.

This is the most tangled problem of Cheng Zhong before, and it is also the reason why he followed all the way later.

He couldn't bear to see the poor woman being bought and sold like an animal, and if he could, he wanted to do what he could to save her.

Fifth, judging from the information provided by Yang Hao just now, it seems that there are still people who are paying attention to Wang Jinren and Ma's second wife.

Although the information is not very exact, his intuition tells Cheng Zhong that it is better to believe that he has it than to believe that he does not.

If the situation Yang Hao said exists, I'm afraid it will be a big trouble, the problem seems to be much more complicated than he imagined, maybe Xue Lihong's worry is not superfluous.

That is tantamount to saying that his previous judgment was wrong, and the danger of the entrance to the "Wolf Domain" being exposed has not been lifted.

If it comes to the entrance to the "Wolf Domain" of Tiemu Mountain, I wonder if he can handle what happens next?

After thinking about this, Cheng Zhong couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

He politely said goodbye to Grandpa Ren, and ran briskly to the tent hotel.

Zhang Xiaoning was looking at the door, saw Cheng Zhong, and said happily:

"You're just in time, I'm about to go over and call you for breakfast!"

Cheng Zhong walked into the tent, thanked Sister Zhang repeatedly, and then began to bury his head in eating.

In fact, no one usually goes to the tent restaurant for breakfast.

After a meal exchange, Zhang Xiaoning has already regarded Cheng Zhong as his own.

Therefore, after she got up early, she boiled milk tea, boiled millet porridge, and took out precious white noodles and baked a thin stack of oil cakes.

waited until Cheng Zhong finished eating, and Zhao Ying staggered out of the back hall.

He had drunk too much last night, and although he had a night's rest, his eyes were still bloodshot and his hair was messy.

"Uncle Zhao, I have something to ask for. Cheng Zhong said straight to the point.

"What's the matter, little brother, please feel free to speak. Zhao Ying sat down and said.

"I wonder if you have any horses here, if so, I'd like to borrow them, and if not, I'll find a way. “

"There's only one three-wheeled motorcycle here, and I usually use it when I go out, but I'm afraid you won't be able to ride it. Where are you going? I'll help you borrow a horse. ”

"Forget it, wait and see, maybe you won't need it. Cheng Zhong said hesitantly.

Coming out of the tent restaurant, Cheng Zhong's mood became even more irritable.

He left the town streets aimlessly and ran wildly towards the hillside behind the earthen city.

I ran six or seven miles in one go, climbed to the top of the highest slope nearby, and fine sweat began to ooze from my body.

He stood there and hesitated for a moment, then turned his back to the sky:

"Wang-Wang", "Wang-"

"Wang-Wang", "Wang-"

"Wang-Wang", "Wang-"

Wild barking sounded one after another from his throat.

Cheng Zhong himself did not know why he did this.

He knew that in the vast grassland, his voice was too quiet, not much different from the cries of insects.

But he still couldn't help but want to bark loudly, maybe just to vent his frustration.

He knew that it was unlikely that Xue Lihong would be able to hear his cry.

But deep down in his heart, there is still a glimmer of hope.

If Xue Lihong is not at ease, he is still young and goes to a completely unfamiliar place alone.

In that case, it might follow.

At this moment, Cheng Zhong wished that Xue Lihong could appear by his side.

It is his biggest backer, and with it, he doesn't have to be afraid of anything.

However, there was no sound around, and there was a dead silence in the four fields, and in this cold winter, even the insects died.

After venting, Cheng Zhong finally regained his composure, walked slowly again, and returned to the three teams.

He didn't go into the janitor's room, but went directly to the neighborhood of dormitory No. 507 in the courtyard.

He pretended to wander around, but watched intently.

There was a man and a woman in the room, who seemed to be packing up their things and showing signs of going out.

Cheng Zhong went to the street, found a store and bought a "big front door" cigarette and a bottle of "mutual aid" barley wine, and returned to the guard's room.

Living here, it troubles Grandpa Ren, he doesn't want to owe too much favors.

Grandpa Ren excused himself, saying that he had never enjoyed such high-end cigarettes and alcohol.

In the end, seeing that Cheng Zhong was sincere, he couldn't bear to make the child too embarrassed, so he had to accept it.

"Grandpa Ren, please rest for a while, let me come back to duty for you, I will call you if there is something." Cheng Zhong said.

He pushed the old man Ren into the inner room, and he sat at the window on duty.

He took out "Flame of Gold and Steel" and flipped through the book, keeping an eye on the people coming in and out......
