Chapter 73: Insignificant Little People

After staying in the interrogation room for three days, Lin Yu was invited out by Deputy Bureau Liang, and this time the lawyer successfully released Lin Yu on bail.

As soon as he left the police station, Lin Yu was taken by the lawyer to Ye Huaizhi's car.

After she thanked Ye Huaizhi in the car, she fell asleep on the seat unconsciously.

Ye Huaizhi supported the chair body on Lin Yu's side, and helped her lower the chair to an angle convenient for a nap without disturbing Lin Yu's rest.

After that, he sat back in his place and motioned for the lawyer in the passenger seat to return to the company and report the case.

The car first sent Lin Yu back to the Sihai community.

As the car stopped in the community, Lin Yu slowly woke up, and after she had a haircut that was messy from sleep, she said goodbye to Ye Huaizhi with her eyes blurred.

It wasn't until Lin Yu entered the residential building that Ye Huaizhi asked the driver to start the car and go back to the company to discuss the next matters.

After returning home, Lin Yu took a bath first, and then fell asleep on the bed without blowing his hair.

In the three days that Lin Yu has been imprisoned, she has been facing dazzling white weaving lamps and high-pressure interrogation, and her nerves have been forced to tense all the time.

Now that she has come home, the strings that have been tense for three days have loosened, and she does feel tired and urgently needs sleep to recuperate.

By the time Lin Yu woke up, it was already evening outside.

She looked at her phone and found that she had slept for a full day, no wonder she was hungry.

There were several text messages and two missed messages in the phone.

She didn't care, and since she didn't reply at first, she wasn't in a hurry.

She first went to the refrigerator to find some ingredients and ordered herself a bowl of noodles, and only picked up her phone again after she was full.

The text messages were condolences from colleagues at work, and she replied one by one.

After the operation, she immediately called Ye Huaizhi back.

As soon as the phone rang, it was picked up, and the familiar clear voice came through electromagnetic waves, "Awake?" ”

"Hmm-" She paused and said sincerely, "Thank you this time!" ”

"What's next?" Ye Huaizhi's voice was as usual, inexplicably reassuring.

"Let's gather the evidence first, and then submit it when the time is right." Lin Yu laughed at himself: "You're right, someone really wants to drag me into the water, I am indeed an insignificant little person in front of power, but I still try to help Qin Xiao in vain." ”

So it's not easy for Shen Wanyan to get her?

So the information she has submitted to the police has not been accepted.

"Do you want me to help you?"

"Haven't you already made a move?" Lin Yu bit his lip, "Help people to the end!" This time when I owe you. ”

Ye Huaizhi smiled softly and said softly, "Then I have to think about the reward." ”

After the call, Lin Yu held the mobile phone with a solemn expression.

The day after she came out of the detention center, Lin Yu did not go to the company, she asked for a leave.

Lin Yu went to the company that sold construction raw materials according to the photo information secretly taken in the Soviet-style club before, and she sat in the bubble tea shop outside the company and observed for a while.

When it was close to lunchtime, people from the raw material company came out to eat one after another, Lin Yu got up and followed one of the groups to a restaurant, and sat down not far from them and ordered a rice bowl casually.

This group of people is basically middle-aged, and the only young man is thin and small, and he seems to be submissive among them, and he is ridiculed by these middle-aged people for a while.

They spoke loudly, and they were five big and three coarse, and after ridiculing the young people, they talked about the miscellaneous things in their daily work.

And the thin and swarthy young man was not very silent from beginning to end, nor was he very gregarious, and it could be seen that he was incompatible with this group of heroic and rough middle-aged people.

When Lin Yu's rice bowl was only halfway through, the group of people had already finished eating and got up to leave.

The bald middle-aged man led by him smiled and said to the thin and swarthy young man: "Thank you, Brother Xiaohei, for your treat!" ”

The others also laughed heartily when they heard this, and echoed: "Brother Xie Xiaohei-"

After saying that, they strode out of the restaurant, leaving the man named Xiao Hei stunned in place.

The proprietress saw someone put down the dishes, and handed the bill to Xiao Hei with disdain, "Sir, here is the bill, please take a look, if it's okay, please go to the counter with me to settle the bill." ”

Xiao Hei was so anxious that his dark face was flushed with a different kind of red, the proprietress's bill was close in front of him, and he could only take out a plastic bag from the inner pocket of his clothes, and the bag contained a pile of change and a bunch of coins in three layers and three layers outside.

He carefully counted the coins and coins one by one with his hands.

Seeing that he hadn't counted the money for a long time, the proprietress's expression was not very good, and urged: "Sir, can I bother you to hurry up, I'm busy!" ”

The proprietress urged like thunder on the ground, and suddenly attracted the curiosity of the guests at other tables, and several eyes fell on Xiao Hei, who was obviously shy and at a loss, his hands trembled, and a pile of coins fell to the ground with a clatter.

Seeing the hard-earned money scattered around, Xiao Hei was about to cry in a hurry, "My money!" ”

At the same time, the expression of the proprietress could no longer be described as difficult, "Sir, call me after you count the money!" ”

After speaking, the proprietress returned to the counter with a suppressed anger and gave the other waiters in the store a look, asking them to keep an eye on the point to prevent running orders.

The coins were scattered around, some of them at the feet of the other table guests, the better guests would get up and move out of place so that Hei could pick up the coins himself, and some guests would symbolically raise their feet to leave a little space for Hei to get into the corner of the table to pick up the coins.

Xiao Hei stumbled into the tables around the restaurant to look for coins at the foot of the table, his young face flushed with shyness and embarrassment, and the mocking and contemptuous laughter of the guests came from time to time, full of irony.

One hand stretched out towards Xiao Hei on the ground, and there were a few coins lying quietly in the palm of Xiu Changying's white hand, Xiao Hei was stunned for a long time, and his dark hand wiped his clothes before he dared to take the coin, and then he looked at Lin Yu gratefully and said, "Thank you, Miss." ”

Lin Yu only replied: "You're welcome." After saying that, he squatted down to help Xiao Hei pick up coins in the corner.

A four or five-year-old boy next to him thought it was funny when he saw this, and he happily joined in to help.

The child is petite and shuttles through all kinds of remote corners with ease, and even the guests who laughed at Xiao Hei before are a little more pleased with the child's helpful behavior, and they all get up and let the child find the coin or pick up the coin under his feet and hand it to the child.

For a while, the dining atmosphere in the restaurant became harmonious.

After the coins scattered around were almost cleaned up, Xiao Hei took the coins in Lin Yu's hand and thanked her solemnly again.

Lin Yu only said, "You're welcome." ”

Xiao Hei stretched out his hand to the little boy again, and his tone was kind and grateful, "Little friend, thank you for your help." ”

The little boy looked at Xiao Hei with a dozen coins in his hand, his eyes rolled, and then he put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Mine! After speaking, he ran back to the adult, hid in the adult's warm and broad arms, and poked out a little brain and smiled provocatively at Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei could only look at the little boy's grandmother in embarrassment, and said respectfully: "Auntie, can you ask your grandson to return the money to me." ”

The little boy's grandmother looked at the nails on Xiao Hei's outstretched hand that were slightly damaged, and there was a circle of black stains between the nails, she immediately covered her nose and said with disgust: "It's only a few dollars, the child picked it up and it was his, after all, he also bent over, which belongs to the income of labor." ”

Xiao Hei's eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't believe it: "You can't do this!" ”

The old lady was immediately angered by Xiao Hei's words, "What am I like?" I didn't do anything. ”

"You don't care about your children!" Xiao Hei was in a hurry, and his voice couldn't help but get louder.

The little boy was so frightened that he cried and clutched the coin in his palm, "Grandma, he's a bad person!" ”

The old lady who was reprimanded by Xiao Hei had a very bad face at the moment, "Are you bullying children and the elderly like this?" ”

Some guests couldn't get used to Xiao Hei's loud voice at an old man and a young man, so he sarcastically said to Xiao Hei, "Isn't it just a few stinky money?!" Is it interesting to intimidate people's grandparents? ”

"Yes, yes, I don't have any money to stay here, and the boss doesn't care!"

Seeing this, the proprietress walked over, and her tone was a little bad, "Sir, please leave after settling the meal money." ”

Xiao Hei's body shook, he looked at the disdainful and contemptuous gazes around him, and then glared back at the sly ancestor on the other side, he was angry and anxious at the moment, and his eyes were red.

"I ...... I don't have enough money...... plus the little boy has a lot of coins in his hand.

The proprietress immediately sharpened her voice when she heard this, "What are you going to eat if you don't have enough money?" ”

"It's like, I don't have the money to go to the restaurant?" The old lady patted the child to soothe and echo the proprietress at the same time.

Xiao Hei clenched his fists with shame on his face, his whole body trembled and he felt a dilemma in the hall, and the countless eyes around him were either contemptuous, sarcastic, or sympathetic, and so on, making his blood around him like an ice cellar.

At this time, a faint voice sounded at the right time, "I'll help him pay." ”

Xiao Hei suddenly raised his head, looking at the only kind-hearted woman in the store who helped her pick up money just now, trembling and wanting to say something, but couldn't say anything, he could only look at Lin Yu with red eyes and helplessness.

The proprietress faced Lin Yu, the wronged leader, her attitude turned around again, and she said kindly: "The little girl is really a bodhisattva!" Come with me to the counter to settle the bill! ”

After settling the account, Xiao Hei followed Lin Yu crampedly, and opened his mouth to thank him again.

Lin Yu interrupted him, "Sir, can you sit with me for a while?" ”

Xiao Hei nodded hesitantly, and followed Lin Yu to the seat next to him and sat down.

When a farce ended, the guests who watched the play went to eat and play with their mobile phones.

The old lady glanced at Xiao Hei's back, smiled and whispered a few words to the little boy in her arms, with a smug look.

Xiao Hei saw that Lin Yu didn't mean to speak, so he sat quietly next to him.

After sitting for a while, Lin Yu's eyes turned, and he suddenly got up and walked towards the counter, and Xiao Hei hurriedly followed her at a loss.
