Chapter 729: Firelight
His words made Bai Lu a little confused.
Can she still be scolded for giving her credit? What kind of logic is this.
She frowned, puzzled, "Scolded? Because of what? ”
The clerk simply straightened his back, as if he had finally found someone to talk to, "This old woman is quite pitiful, we all know a little about what happened in her family, our curator is a kind person who eats fasting and recites Buddha, and every time he sees her pitiful, he acquiesces to the credit." But once or twice is fine, and you can't just rely on us, right? Do you think we can't get used to this kind of person? ”
His tone of complaint showed some dissatisfaction.
Waiting for Bai Lu to nod in agreement, he quickly continued, "This old woman is even more excessive than you think!" I saw that our curator was soft-hearted, every time he came, he took it for nothing and justifiably didn't give money, our curator is also a bun, and he gave it to her every time, if she had a really good heart, it would be okay, but she was not a good person at all, so long, not even a word of thanks! ”
Bai Lu was stunned when he heard this.
She hesitated for a moment and added, "Is it that every time she is in a hurry to go back to give medicine to the patient, she really can't come up with the money to pay it back, so I'm embarrassed to tell you more?" ”
It's okay that she didn't mention it, but when she mentioned the clerk, she was angry directly, "Excuse me? Pull it down, do you know that she takes the medicine every time and leaves immediately? Like a bandit, I still remember that when the curator was not in the store, she came to get the medicine and we didn't give it, she was crazy and picked up the things on the medicine shelf and threw them everywhere, and scolded us for being black-hearted, which made other customers think we did something bad. She's completely using our curator and his kind eyes! ”
The clerk complained, as if he had been holding this breath for a long time.
Seeing his indignant expression, Bai Portugal's heart tingled for a while, and he unconsciously took a step back, and suddenly stepped on something under his feet.
She reflexively lifted her feet, but her body lost its center of gravity and tilted to the side and back, and just as she was about to fall, her shoulders were suddenly pulled up by a large warm hand.
Bai Yu took a breath and suddenly raised his head, just in front of Lu Zhaohe's deep eyes.
She cleared her throat, "You've got my feet." ”
Lu Zhaohe's fingers flickered, and he glanced at her casually, "Do I still have to apologize to you?" ”
Bai Lu naturally broke away from his hand, shook his head, and said seriously, "No, it doesn't hurt very much." ”
The wicked sue first, this trick can really relieve the embarrassment very well.
Before the clerk could finish speaking, he heard their movement and was about to come forward.
Bai Lu thought about what he said about the old lady just now, and suddenly remembered something, and his fingers hanging on both sides tightened: "Oh no! ”
Her eyes were obviously a little excited, and she turned around and grabbed Lu Zhaohe's arm, "The old man went back to ask about the demolition and relocation one by one, even if there was something to hide, but some people with brains should be able to guess a little, isn't this news equivalent to being released?" ”
Lu Zhaohe's tone deepened, "What's wrong?" ”
Bai Lu swallowed in his throat, relieved his breath and continued, "Now there is finally a chance to demolish, if according to you, it was not an accident a few years ago but man-made, then wouldn't the only old lady who disagrees now be in danger?!" ”
As soon as her words fell, Lu Zhaohe's long eyebrows furrowed slightly, obviously thinking of her.
"Let's go."
After saying it neatly, he turned around, took Bai Portugal's hand and hurriedly walked out.
This series of actions quickly made the clerk not react for a while.
Looking at the back of them quickly walking out of the door, the clerk felt inexplicable, especially before he finished speaking, and thought that these two people could help the old woman clear the bill.
Kicking the cardboard box next to him, he spat to the side, "Two neuropaths." ”
When I came out of the infirmary, it was already dark, like a heavy curtain covering the whole land.
The street lamp reflected the shadows of the two, and Bai Lu followed him into the car and drove towards the location of Chen Meifang's house.
Looking at the night scene that was rapidly rowing behind him, Bai Lu pursed his lips, "I really didn't expect this old lady to be this kind of person." ”
When I contacted her before, coupled with the description of her family by Fang Face, I only felt that her family background was very pitiful.
For her son who is sick in bed all the year round, the old lady can only work hard all her life, and she didn't want to have such a face behind her.
Lu Zhaohe was not surprised by her question.
He furrowed his eyebrows, "Then who do you think she will be?" ”
She thought carefully for a while, and looked serious, "Hard-working, honest kind." ”
These traits are indeed quite in line with the appearance of the old lady.
Bai Lu didn't hear the answer, only heard a cold snort.
There seemed to be a hint of ridicule.
What do you mean? Laughing at her?
Before Bai Lu could speak, the light of the fire shining in the distance suddenly attracted her attention.
Bai Lu squinted, it seemed to be the direction of Chen Meifang's house.
She was just about to be surprised when she felt the car suddenly fill with fuel, and the power was greatly improved, and she rushed forward.
After getting closer, the fire became more pronounced, emitting thick black smoke, and as the south wind blew harder, the fire had spread uncontrollably.
"The urban village is on fire!"
Bai Lu exclaimed, and the uneasiness in his heart was completely realized.
Lu Zhaohe stepped on the accelerator to the end with a calm face, and quickly enlightened the vicinity of the burning building.
For the sake of safety, he specially parked the car away from the scene of the crime.
The two got out of the car together and ran quickly in the direction of the fire.
People in urban villages tend to go to bed early, and at this time, many houses have turned off their lights, and there are people around who don't know what is happening in their sleep.
A few families who were close to each other heard a strange noise outside and turned on the lights again.
"It's on fire! Get up! Bai Lu trotted all the way to the door, and after a while, the whole village was completely in chaos.
The children's crying was mixed with the shouting of the crowd, and many of them came to see the excitement, holding up their mobile phones to take pictures.
In the chaos, Bai Lu saw a familiar figure running out not far away, it was the old man who helped Lu Zhaohe count the demolition list before.
He was only wearing a light undershirt, and the moment he saw Bai Lu, he patted his thigh with remorse, "The one on fire is the one that didn't agree to be demolished a few days ago......"
The old man's cloudy eyes looked in the direction of the fire, and for a moment he didn't know whether it was a good deed or a sin.
Bai Lu didn't have time to step forward to appease, although she and Lu Zhaohe had expected this incident in advance, but when it really happened in front of her, she still felt a lot of shock in her heart.
originally had a trace of expectation for human nature, but the scene at this moment directly shattered her illusions.
Bai Yuqiang held back the discomfort in his heart and followed Lu Zhaohe to the location of the fire.
When he arrived at the burning building, Bai Lu noticed that there were many police officers surrounding the scene.
She glanced around in some surprise, obviously they had arrived quickly, but it was obvious that they had arrived in time.
