Chapter 3: The World of the Jungle
Pei Yu does have an appointment in the afternoon, and today every month is the day to see Pei Sixian, her father.
Yancheng Prison is remote and deserted, after two hours of bus ride, Pei Yu got out of the station, raised his hand and beckoned a black car, got on the bus after reporting the address, and issued the license plate to Ji Baichen by the way.
The black car driver is a young guy, it is rare to receive such a young and fashionable girl, it is pleasing to the eye when he looks at it from a distance, and after Pei Yu got in the car, he secretly peeked at her from the rearview mirror, where can such a beautiful girl see it on weekdays, today is really burning incense.
The guy endured it for a long time, but he couldn't help but talk casually, "Beauty, are you visiting?" ”
Pei Yu twisted his eyebrows, raised his eyes and squinted slightly, looking displeased, the guy coughed lightly and stopped, what a stupid question, isn't it difficult to visit in prison or tourism, hating himself for being stupid, sighed and stopped looking for topics.
Jumping out of the car, Pei Yu ran to the window quickly, and several female policemen inside yawned and chatted, and when they saw someone coming, they didn't raise their heads, and said coldly, "ID card." ”
Pei Yu handed over her ID card, and the policewoman entered the computer for verification and let her in.
The next thing that awaits her is a series of security checks.
Pei Yu wrote the name of the blood pressure medicine for Pei Sixian and put it in the small basket at the window of the security room, as it has always been.
Then he went into the hall and waited.
In the past two years, the conditions in the prison have been slightly better, and electronic screens have been installed so that the visiting family members know what time to meet at the window in a while.
On the left side of the electronic screen is the week's meals in prison, with a clear soup and little water, and only a little oil and water can be seen during the New Year's holidays.
The prison is remote and far away, and family members usually come to visit early in the morning, so the hall is very crowded in the morning, and there are only a few in the afternoon.
Now that it's winter, it's getting dark early, and Pei Yu is the only one at this point.
She clasped her hands and stared out the window at the thick concrete wall, surrounded by a circle of high-voltage power grids, separating the two worlds from the outside world.
At this point, Pei Sixian usually worked on the farm in the prison, and their biological clock was forcibly adjusted to get up at 6 in the morning to work, until the lights went out at night, day after day, lifeless.
The electronic screen flashed, and Pei Sixian's name popped up, and Pei Yu immediately went up to the second floor.
Through the heavy glass, she sat down first, and a few minutes later, the prison guard brought Pei Sixian over.
After a scorching summer exposure, Pei Sixian has darkened a lot, although he is no longer high-spirited, and he is wearing a dark blue prison uniform that does not fit well, but he can still be called dignified, Pei Yu's eyes are very similar to him, and both father and daughter are the kind of models who can seduce people with just one look.
Pei Yu gathered her attention, and carefully looked Pei Sixian up and down before picking up the phone, she knew that Pei Sixian had always reported good news and not bad news, and as for the situation inside, it all depended on her own meticulous observation.
Pei Yu knew that the world behind the iron door was hell, which was unimaginable to ordinary people.
These economic criminals are forced to be locked up with murderous perverts.
Thinking of this, Pei Yu unconsciously clenched her fists, but just a few seconds later, she picked up the phone and put on a well-behaved face, "Dad." ”
Pei Sixian's eyes always turned red when he heard his daughter's voice, but he didn't want to look too pretentious, so he coughed a few times, "Yuyu, dad is fine, how are you doing, how is the collectibles company you run?" ”
"Very good, it's cold, Fontainebleau has a few paintings out, you know, the tastes of the rich have always been tricky." Pei Yu easily talked to Pei Sixian about the recent sales achievements.
Pei Sixian was still keenly smelling forbearance from her pretended faint expression, he didn't want to say it, but he was worried, "Yu Yu, Dad has been here for five years, and he has long been used to it, but it's another five years, you ...... You don't have to stay here for Dad, a lot of things...... The dust has settled, you can't change it, let alone cling to it. ”
Pei Yu smiled, "Dad, here, or in Utrecht, they won't let us go, so it can be seen that escaping is not only shameful but also useless." ”
When Pei Sixian heard this, he sighed, pinched the bridge of his nose, and looked at Pei Yu through the glass with only guilt in his heart, he really regretted it, if he begged for mercy and confessed when he was forced to confess and torture, Yu Yu would not have to suffer for so many years.
hated that he was still young at the time, he couldn't resist provocation, and he was wronged, and he always hoped that God would reward him, and he would have the opportunity to defend him in court.
Who would have thought that when he went to court, everything would have been decided, and he would be nothing more than fish and meat to be slaughtered.
He has been through ups and downs for more than 20 years, conscientious and conscientious, and it only took half an hour to be nailed to the pillar of shame, ruined his reputation, and affected the entire Pei family.
Pei Yu tried to change the topic and chatted about the recent gossip news, but Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Pei Sixian holding the phone and exposing the new injury on his arm, and his heart ached.
This is his father, who was imprisoned for seven days and seven nights, tortured to extract a confession, and he couldn't be destroyed.
But it is precisely because he is talented, unique and can bear hardships that he is regarded as a thorn in the flesh.
He is just a talented engineer, and he is really immature compared to the deceit in the officialdom.
In other words, everyone is willing to intervene in the matter of sacrificing him to benefit thousands of families.
The time of the visit was only one hour, and after the time, the phone would automatically become invalid, and Pei Yu could only see the dry lips that Pei Sixian was opening and closing.
She stretched out her hand and pressed it against the cold glass, and Pei Sixian also placed her palm in this position, which was a small ceremony before each of their parting.
Through several layers of glass, the coldness of the drill heart slowly covered the entire palm from between the fingers, always reminding Pei Yu to stay awake.
Out of the prison, she sat in the small gazebo where her family members usually lined up to verify her identity and smoked a cigarette, the sky was just dark, the cold wind in this wilderness was raging, and Pei Yu was only wearing a thin turtleneck sweater.
The wind poured in through the wide collar, propping up the already loose sweater.
Pei Yu lit a cigarette several times but failed, the wind was too strong, so he could only hold it between his fingers and give up for the time being.
The top priority was to open the mobile phone first, find a certain number in the address book, and call over.
Immediately, there was only her sweet and soft voice in the wind, "Uncle Liu, I'm really sorry to disturb you at meal time, mainly because in the afternoon, the store just entered the Western Han Shuangluan Mirror, a rare Kunlun slave lion taming model, I was blown up in the afternoon, but I thought you were the favorite, so I left it for you, and let someone send it to you another day." ”
Her timbre changed from the usual casual, revealing the girl's grace and dignity, but her face was colder than the cold wind of the night.
The man on the other end was so excited that he could barely speak, "Great, great, Yuyu, you still have a way, I've been thinking about this Luan mirror for a long time, but what about the price...... You also know that your Uncle Liu has always been cautious, oh by the way, did I go to see your father today, is he okay? ”
When Pei Yu saw that he was hooked, he was not in a hurry to confide, "Dad...... Ok, ok, thank you. ”
"What's the matter, you tell your uncle that your uncle will definitely help, after all, they are also old friends." The man listened to her tone with tears, read the hints, and smelled the business opportunity.
"It's not that there is a strict hierarchy inside, Dad will always be bullied, I understand, it's not good to break the rules." Pei Yu picked it up unhurriedly.
"The rules are not set by people, Yu Yu, don't worry, uncle will help you call over, I am familiar with the old Shen of Yancheng Prison, I told him last time to help take care of him, this grandson actually broke his promise, see if I don't talk about him." The man's tone was short.
"Thank you, uncle."
"But," the man paused for a few seconds, "Yu Yu, you know the rules, Uncle Shen also likes old objects, you prepare a few things, Uncle I can speak." ”
"Uncle, I understand, I'll arrange it."
Pei Yu hung up the phone, and silently scolded in his heart for a round of angry words greeting his ancestors, those old things are very cunning.
The world inside the high walls, one price for one thing, no negotiation, small things, big things, big prices.
Just like Liu Ze on the phone just now, as a contact, he wants to get a piece of the pie.
knew that Liu Ze had always liked to collect special categories, and his eyes were poisonous, so she guessed that it must be Liu Ze who was destined for this Luan mirror, but Liu Ze, the old fox, made it clear that he didn't want to pay for it himself, and he hinted at her several times openly and secretly, waiting for her to snatch it down and honor herself.
Pei Yu has been like this all these years, at most he scolded a few words to vent his anger, and it was good to finish speaking, in this world of the jungle, complaints and tears are worthless, it is better to spend more time to make money and eliminate disasters.
