Chapter 220: It's dawn
The moonlight fades, the sunrise breaks, and the warmth rising from the east makes the fish belly white in the sky a little more vibrant.
The reeds on the beach were still the same as the dilapidated fishing boats, the two people who were standing, and the only change was that the figures lying down changed from one to two.
"It's dawn." Fang Ziyu looked up at the sky, not looking at the sun, but at the Tai'a.
"It's dawn." Sun Jie stepped on the cigarette and echoed. Although there was no sun shining on his body, he was comfortable because he felt a sense of relaxation that he had never felt as a gambler.
"Justice, thank you."
After picking up the cigarette butt and putting it in the pocket of his clothes, Sun Jie bowed deeply to Fang Ziyu, the IOU he wrote for Zhou Papi was originally in Ah Tang's hand, but it had been burned to ashes at this time.
Last night, he watched Zhou Jinrong's millions of funds turn into digital currency and flow into Fang Ziyu's hands as blockchain assets, but he never proposed to share the spoils.
Not a word.
Fang Ziyu turned his head and glanced at Sun Jie seriously, and asked softly, "Will you still gamble in the future?" ”
Sun Jie didn't expect this question, he was stunned, lowered his head and said, "I want to quit, but ...... I'm afraid I can't quit. I don't remember what happened last time, but I guess I didn't cherish the opportunity you gave me, and I went back to gambling after I got the money. ”
"How about someone like you?"
“……”
"How about a person like Zhou Papi?"
"There are many people like me and like him." Sun Jie sighed deeply, "Mr. Justice, I understand what you mean, even if I don't meet Zhou Papi, I will also meet Li Papi Wang Papi, which is my own way to die." ”
Fang Ziyu nodded, shook his head again, and continued to ask, "Do you know why I didn't kill him?" ”
"Because, there will be trouble with killing?" Sun Jie saw that the cold justice was finally willing to talk to him, and the thirst for knowledge that had been suppressed by fear reared up again.
"No, because if you kill him, there will still be Li Papi Wang Pi, as long as there are people like you in Pingcheng or this world, people like the underground gambling stall and Zhou Papi will never disappear. Kill him, will it save you? Can you save people like you? Fang Ziyu looked at Zhou Jinrong and Ah Tang, who were lying unconscious on the edge of the river, grinning but not smiling.
"It can't be saved." Sun Jie shook his head without hesitation, it is always the gambler himself who kills the gambler.
"The Pingcheng police have not been able to eradicate the underground gambling stalls several times, and killing one or two people will not solve the problem. So let's save his life and let him go back to continue running the gambling stall, at least I asked him a lot of secrets after the execution, and it is far easier to control him than to control a completely strange Li Papi Wang Pi Wang. The next time you come back, talk to his boss. ”
After Fang Ziyu finished speaking, he twisted his neck and said as if talking to himself: "History tells us that a person who is upright can never completely drive away the darkness. Sun Jie, think about it, if one day you go from a victim to an exploiter, from a gambler to a banker, what can you do? ”
"I ......," Sun Jie realized, "I can use the money I earn in the right way, and I can control the winners and losers of gamblers, so that they will not go bankrupt and go to a dead end?" ”
"What if one day you could become the big dealer of all the underground casinos in Heijo?"
"Then there won't be anyone in Pingcheng like me who is desperate for gambling!" Sun Jie said categorically, "Every gambler who loses his net worth will bump into the luck and pick up a small amount of money, and every gambler who gambles red and wants to borrow money can borrow a sum of money in the casino with his ID card, and he will not be urged to pay it back after losing it all, but will only be asked to drink tea and talk and persuade him to turn back and go ashore!" ”
"It's too idealistic, the human heart and the world are complex, and the victims of the past, after a change of class, are more likely to raise a butcher's knife against their former kind, like other exploiters. But as long as there is a reasonable and enforceable regulatory system, which is what people call underground rules, what you are talking about may not be a reality. Fang Ziyu laughed, as if joking and as if asking seriously, "Sun Jie, do you want to make a big bet?" ”
For game enthusiasts, treating a real-life pursuit or goal as a game can inspire more enthusiasm.
In the same way, for gamblers, treating a certain pursuit as a game can also inspire fiery passion.
"Mr. Justice, do you want to kill Zhuang? No, you want me to take my place? But the big dealers in Pingcheng are all hand-eyed, which is not comparable to Zhou Jinrong. Sun Jie's sluggish brain was rarely enlightened, and he actually understood what Fang Ziyu meant.
"The strong are cowardly and swing their swords at the stronger, and the weak are cowardly and swing their swords at the weaker."
This sentence seems to have been said by Lu Xun? Sun Jie didn't understand, but it didn't prevent him from showing his loyalty.
"Mr. Justice, I'll do it with you!"
"Well, but not now, we have to wait for a ripe time. Grab the money and pick up your grandma first. ”
"The nursing home is about to open, there are only two low-level thugs guarding near the nursing home, you can do it yourself, take a taxi to the bus station after picking up the elderly, take a car to Yinjiang, find a regular hotel to live in, take care of the elderly, and then wait for me to contact you."
"Zhou Jinrong's driver and bodyguards don't know who you are, after the case is filed, the Pingcheng criminal police may retrieve the surveillance video of the entrance of Ah Tang's apartment and the underground parking lot according to the clues provided by the driver, and it is only a matter of time before you find out your identity, however, Zhou Jinrong and Ah Tang will not remember anything, but will mislead the direction of the police's investigation, so you should have at least a week to change your appearance."
"If you have a card addiction, the next mobile chess game will pass the time, and if you want to gamble, think about your grandma first."
Fang Ziyu paused, pointed to the two people on the ground, and finally said, "Remember to save their nude photos to the cloud disk, which will be useful in the future." ”
After speaking, Fang Ziyu took out Zhou Jinrong's wallet, took out all the cash in it and handed it to Sun Jie, not worrying that Sun Jie might regret it.
If Sun Jie wants to take his grandmother to a strange city to start over, away from all right and wrong, then Fang Ziyu doesn't matter, after all, Sun Jie is not a talent that cannot be missed, and if he leaves, it is not a major loss.
Moreover, Sun Jie should not be so stupid as to think that he can get rid of all the troubles by changing cities, and if he wants to start a new life, he can't do it alone, after all, he still has an old man with Alzheimer's disease.
Sun Jie looked at the thick pile of red banknotes in his hand, and said in a daze: "Mr. Justice, what about you?" ”
"I've got one more thing to deal with, see you later."
Fang Ziyu didn't stay any longer, turned around and left.
Speaking of talents that cannot be missed, there is a person who has been haunting Fang Ziyu's heart and lingering.
Fang Ziyu didn't have the ability to control him before, but now ......
"Justice Total! Thank you, thank you! ”
Sun Jie shouted behind Fang Ziyu, interrupting his train of thought.
Looking back, the man with a sturdy body and a lewd face held the money in his hand and cried like a child.
Fang Ziyu couldn't figure out what this guy was crying about, waved his hand, and replied, "It's good to do it yourself." ”
When Sun Jie looked up, the morning sun happened to break through the clouds, and the sunlight fell on Fang Ziyu's body, and for some reason Sun Jie seemed to see that the dark clothes and pants were all coated with a faint halo.
