Chapter 8: Strange
When I went to look for Jiangnan, he was not at the maintenance station at the time, I called him, although it was connected, but no one answered, and he beeped a lot, and I didn't know what Jiangnan was doing.
I asked the rest of the pit shop, and the worker said that the boss, Gangnam, had come very early, and after breakfast, he received a phone call and left in a hurry.
When I heard this, I asked him if he knew who had told him to go out, but I did not get a definite answer.
Sitting in Jiangnan's office and waiting, I called his phone over and over again, but still no one responded to me.
I poured myself a cup of tea and took a sip, it was very hot. I simply stood up and looked at everything in the room, and just then I noticed an extinguished cigarette butt in the ashtray on the table.
Looking at the length of the cigarette butt, it is estimated that after only one puff, the person left.
It seems that when Jiangnan left, he must have been in a hurry.
After waiting for about half an hour, he still hasn't come back, so I decided not to wait, I want to go to Yueyue first to see how the situation is now. As I was leaving, I saw someone coming up to me.
He seems to have come to Jiangnan, and I looked at him at a glance and felt that he was a little familiar.
When I looked at it again, I suddenly remembered where I had seen him, one of those repairers I saw yesterday when I went to the repair shop in Zhangfa in the city.
This person is about forty years old, he should be a master, and when he saw me coming out of the Jiangnan office, he was also stunned for a moment, he should have recognized me too.
The moment I looked at him, I knew he had something to say to me.
So I simply didn't leave, and went back to Jiangnan's office with him. After we sat down, the other man handed me a cigarette, I waved it and said no, and he smoked it himself.
After spitting out a few smoke rings, he asked me, "You were looking for Zhang Fa yesterday, did you want to know about Lu Yuan?" ”
His surname is Zhou, and the first thing Lao Zhou said to me was this, of course, from between the lines, I can also guess that the purpose of his coming to Jiangnan should be similar to me.
So, I asked him, "Do you have your own opinion on Lu Yuan's death?" ”
After smoking the cigarette in his hand, Lao Zhou looked up at me, he didn't return to my question, but asked directly: "Why did you go to the repair station where Lu Yuan had an accident that day, what do you think?" ”
I was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Old Zhou, Lu Yuan's death shouldn't be an accident, right?" ”
Hearing me ask, Lao Zhou glanced outside the office, the workers in Jiangnan were repairing cars, his business was indeed much better than Zhang Fa's, it seems that Zhang Fa's previous worries were really not superfluous.
The skilled workers are the same, or they really taught the apprentices and starved the master to death.
"When Lu Yuan died, were you at the scene?" I asked him.
After a moment's hesitation, he whispered, "Yes." ”
I immediately added, "Tell me about the situation." ”
Lao Zhou's forehead was suddenly soaked with some beads of sweat, and he was gasping a few times: "What happened that day, it was really sudden, a loud bang was unexpected, seeing a living person die in front of me, I still can't believe that it was true......
In fact, Lu Yuan's death was really very strange, just the day before, I and another master also checked all the jacks according to the usual practice. This is the rule of the car dealership, every three months, must do a major equipment overhaul.
The parking space of Lu Yuan at that time was personally inspected by me, and everything was quite normal, and there would never be a phenomenon of the jack ceiling falling off. However, after Lu Yuan's accident, I went to check the golden ceiling again, but found that the place where the buckle was suspended, someone had tampered with it. ”
Hearing Lao Zhou say this, my heart tightened, it seems that it is really the same as I guessed, Lu Yuan's death is not so simple.
"The police are not professionals, they came to check and didn't find any problems, and then the case was closed in a hurry, and the cause of Lu Yuan's death was defined as an accident, and everything became logical."
I stared at him: "What about you, since you are questioning Lu Yuan's death, why don't you mention this matter to the police?" ”
"I've thought about it." He said: "I told Zhang Fa, but he said that the police had closed the case, and there was no need to mention this matter again. Moreover, we later found that the quality of that batch of jacks was not quite up to standard, and when we bought it, the manufacturer said that there was a problem, but he wanted to be cheap, so he still bought it.
At that time, when several of our workers and masters found out, they were all angry. Asked Zhang Fa why he bought these jack hangers that did not meet the standards, Zhang Fa explained that he didn't know that the situation would be like this, those jack hanger manufacturers just said that there were some defects, according to the product report, there would not be such a big problem, but I didn't think the consequences would be so serious.
This repair shop is our food and clothing parents, if Zhang Fa has an accident, then this repair shop will definitely not be able to open, we are not like Lu Yuan, there are so many customers to take away, if we go out to stand on our own, we can't support ourselves and our families at all.
Therefore, we chose to be silent in order to have something to eat. ”
Hearing him say this, I was really angry, this reason is really ridiculous, in order to have something to eat, he can ignore the truth of a person's death, and this person has worked with him for so many years.
I asked him, "Then why are you telling me this now?" ”
"Because ......" he hesitated: "After you left yesterday, Lu Yuan came to me......"
"What!?"
Hearing this, I suddenly stood up!
Lao Zhou smoked several cigarettes and said to me: "Last night, I took over a job temporarily, an off-road vehicle came to repair, and the owner wanted to use it the next day, so I was in a hurry." He added money to Zhang Fa and said that it must be repaired, so several of our masters temporarily stayed to work overtime.
The problem with the car was very serious, the problem with the engine, the owner was by our side, and he said that he would not leave until we repaired it.
A few of us repaired it for a long time and didn't find the source of the problem. The owner's face was not very good-looking, and he called Zhang Fa several times and asked him if we could do it, and if it didn't work, he would change people.
Zhang Fa was also very anxious, but he didn't say much on the phone.
Things were so deadlocked, and the owner of the car later became sleepy, saying that he would go back first, but gave us an ultimatum, saying that no matter what, he must come and get the car the next morning.
After the owner left, we really couldn't repair the car well. was simply heartbroken, thinking that those masters were also unreasonable, so he ran to the office to sleep.
When I got up at night to relieve myself, I saw some clanging sounds coming from the parking space, and it was someone repairing the car.
At first, I thought someone was up, but then I thought, no, several masters are inside.
When I walked over and looked, I was almost so scared that I sat on the ground, the one who was hunched over to repair the car was actually Lu Yuan!
