Chapter 6 Gray

It was already two o'clock in the morning, and the whole city still seemed to be full of life, and he sat on the roof for a while before going back to his room to sleep.

The day before, the work at other people's homes had been done, and the next thing was nothing more than cleaning the workshop, packing up all kinds of tools, their small workshop was also a temporary rented house, because the formal procedures were not done at all, and the home improvement company did not officially open the door.

Li Xuan and Chen Susu both came over to help clean up, but Ah Hu didn't show up, Lan Zi was a little worried, afraid that he would go to the fire bull brother to settle accounts and be beaten or something, Li Kun didn't care: "It's okay, you see that he is impulsive, but he has been out for so long anyway, and it is not smooth sailing all the time, how can he do that kind of stupid thing......"

For the little brother who is mixed around, Li Kun really knows very well, after a day, Ah Hu appeared in front of everyone again, of course, the first job is done, it is not easy to receive the second job, there is no formalities, and it is impossible to go out to do business, the next few days are on vacation, everyone walks around together, and the main thing that is strange to Hong Kong is Lan Zi and Li Xuan, who have been sitting in Ah Hu's car for a few days, and have gone around a lot of places.

Occasionally, Ah Hu has something, and Li Xuan also pulls Lan Zi to walk around Mong Kok, the girl's plan is that no matter what Li Kun and they do, try not to let Lan Zi, an outsider, get involved, of course, Lan Zi actually understands that Li Kun has no plans to do anything at all recently.

However, on the 10th of June, it was they who ran into trouble first.

It rained for a while on this day, the temperature in the hot summer dropped slightly, the streets were still crowded, bustling, because Li Kun planned to gather with some old friends today, and also pulled some business by the way, Chen Susu and Ah Hu also followed, Li Xuan and Lan Zi didn't get up until more than ten o'clock in the morning to go out, casually went to a fast food restaurant to eat, due to the rain, the store was also full of water stains, they went all the way to the second floor to find empty seats, there were not many people on the second floor, but just as soon as they went up, Lan Zi and Li Xuan were a little hesitant.

On the side of the second floor of the fast food restaurant, there were more than a dozen men in suits standing or sitting, but they all looked like they were all around the middle table of an old man who was drinking porridge with his head bowed, the old man was about sixty years old, his hair was half white, neatly combed, tall, and energetic. This old man Lan Zi and Li Xuan have seen it, and they will not forget it for a while, it is the "Uncle Bao" I saw in the bar a few days ago.

Li Xuan was the first to see it, Lan Zi was a little sluggish, and when he saw that it was very empty, he walked directly inside - if he also saw it at the beginning, the two turned around and left, maybe things were better, since he went in, Li Xuan thought about it and followed, and when Lan Zi also recognized the old man, both of them had already sat down at the table, and the waiter came over, and they had to order two fast foods, and it was not good to leave again.

"It's Uncle Bao that day." Lan Zi lowered his head and whispered to Li Xuan opposite.

"I recognize it too...... Li Xuan turned his face to the wall and whispered, "or let's go." ”

"It should be fine, we know him, he doesn't necessarily recognize us......" He thought for a moment, "What's more, if he really wants to do something, we will be stopped when we leave......"

After all, Lan Zi was a law-abiding teenager who hadn't seen much before, although he had experienced that surreal accident, but because it was too surreal, it was difficult to connect with real life on the one hand, on the other hand, although Lan Zi also knew in his heart that most of these people were very vicious, but in fact, he didn't really take them seriously. Because the importance of the underworld often comes from a sense of fear, he is not afraid in his heart, although he knows that things may be very tricky for Li Kun, but in himself, how tricky it is, but he has no concept at all, he flies in the sky every day, no matter how fierce these people are, they look like ordinary people. After saying this to Li Xuan, the two waited for fast food, and Uncle Bao drank porridge, but he glanced at this side a few times, and then, someone pointed and said something in his ear.

When the fast food was delivered, Uncle Bao finished eating, put the bowl on the table, got up and walked over to this side, and then a group of people gathered around. Listening to the footsteps, Li Xuan, who had his back to everyone, was a little nervous, Lan Zi was eating, looked up, stood up from his seat with a plate, and was about to go to Li Xuan's side, but only halfway through, he was pushed by his shoulder: "Boy, sit down." ”

"I'll sit here." Lan Zi pointed at Li Xuan as a matter of course. This is a white rectangular dining table, a double seat facing each other, if Yuan Bao wants to sit, he naturally has to let Lan Zi and Li Xuan squeeze aside. When these words came out, the man was stunned, Lan Zi then sat down next to Li Xuan, Yuan Bao glared at the subordinate, and sat opposite the two.

"I met that night, and I know you're Ah Kun's sister." Yuan Bao glanced at Li Xuan lightly, "Then who are you, little brother?" ”

"My name is Xie Baoshu, not the meaning of the Xie family's treasure tree." didn't want to make trouble for Li Kun, Lan Zi had no choice but to put down the chopsticks in his hand and answer.

"Baoshu, that's really fateful, they all call me Uncle Bao, hahahaha......" Yuan Bao laughed a few times, and then the smile froze on his face, and the air seemed to be condensed, he has been the boss for so many years, and the momentum is still there, "I know your name is Xiao Xuan." Do you know what Ah Kun is doing every day now? ”

"My brother ......" Li Xuan winced a little and lowered his head, "My brother wants to ...... Want to start a home improvement company......"

"Home Improvement Company...... Good things, it's coming back, there are opportunities everywhere......" He said slowly, Lan Zi felt a little guilty in his heart: "This guy is too slow to speak......"

"But how did I hear that he went to dinner with Ah Xiang and the others today...... Oh, you don't know who Ah Xiang is, yes, if I have a sister, I don't tell her these things...... But I said a few days ago that he would be free to sit with me, why didn't he come, I see that I am old, and I don't talk anymore, right......"

His voice seemed to be muttering to himself, Lan Zi and Li Xuan were a little unsure of how to answer for a while, but Uncle Bao didn't wait for an answer, and sighed: "Xiao Xuan, a good name, it's a pity...... Let's go. With that, he got up with a group of people and walked downstairs.

The footsteps disappeared at the top of the stairs, Li Xuan was scared in her heart, and she had no appetite for food, Lan Zi comforted her: "Don't be afraid, it's okay." Li Xuan nodded, in fact, this comfort is not nutritious, it can't work at all, go home this day, they tell Li Kun about it, and Li Kun's face becomes terrible.

Ah Hu's temper also became irritable again: "Brother Kun, it must be a fire cow, you also know that this guy has been going around recently, saying that you want to make a comeback, and you want to break away from Heshenghe, he says bad things about you in front of Yuanbao every day......", and then said to Li Kun: "It's okay, Brother Kun, now the gang Awen Ajiang supports you, you have saved Lao Qian's life before, Yuanbao This old thing doesn't dare to do anything, the brothers won't obey him, I'll call them now, let them pay attention to Yuanbao, and give them a little pressure......"

"Don't fight." Li Kun glanced at him, "Now the most brothers are the fire ox, don't pull them into the water, it's enough to take care of them on the side." ”

"You can't let someone like him cover the sky with one hand!"

"Anyway, I'll talk to Uncle Bao tomorrow, anyway, I always have to make it clear, Ah Xiang handed over the decoration of his new nightclub to me, this is just business, I won't accept this business!"

"Brother Kun, Huoniu, he won't give up! People like him ......"

"Humph......"

Li Kun didn't say anything more, that night, Lan Zi heard Li Xuan crying in the room, he was also a little upset, after all, he hadn't experienced too many things, and he didn't know what simple solutions he could do to the situation in front of him.

The next day Li Kun went to find the ingots, the specific things, Lan Zi naturally did not know, but Li Kun was in a bad mood all day, that night, the small workshop that was only slightly arranged was smashed, and then set a fire, Li Kun was notified to deal with it, Lan Zi is a smuggler, naturally he can't follow, he went to the top of the building and turned around, when he came down, he vaguely heard Chen Susu and Ah Hu talking in the corridor, Ah Hu was very indignant, Chen Susu was crying, but when Lan Zi saw it, She slapped Ah Hu in the face, who was shouting: "You can't tell him!" ”

"Brother Kun has the right to know!"

"He doesn't want to mix anymore, you want to force him to come out again!" Chen Susu was in tears, and her voice was particularly suppressed.

"Is it going to go on like this!"

"It's a big deal to leave Hong Kong, I will go to Fujian with him and Xiao Xuan! Recently, there is no boat in the wind, as long as it returns to ......"

As they were saying this, they all closed their mouths when they saw Lan Zi walking down, and Ah Hu stretched out his hand and pointed at Lan Zi: "...... Don't talk nonsense. Chen Susu wiped away her tears, she was probably guessing how much Lan Zi heard, but she didn't ask, just looked at him for a while and said, "Don't, don't tell Ah Kun......" Lan Zi nodded before entering the room.

Lan Zi didn't know what they were talking about, but he couldn't sleep at night, and when he walked out of the bedroom late at night, he heard the sound of conversation between Li Kun and Chen Susu's room faintly, and he was curious, so he listened to it in the corner.

"I went to see Uncle Bao today, and when I met the fire cow, he said something......" Since I came back from seeing Uncle Bao, Li Kun's voice has been depressed all day. Chen Susu's voice was as thin as a mosquito fly: "What ......?"

"He said when I went in four years ago, you were actually pregnant, that child...... Isn't it mine? ”

Chen Susu immediately began to cry: "Don't talk about this, okay?" ”

"Where's the child...... Did the fire cow do it? Ah Hu knows, right? Why didn't you tell me? ”

"Don't ask! We...... There's still more than a month to go, don't ask, okay......"

"How do I get there?"

"Don't forget that you still have a little whirlpool, you have a sister!"

"But how do I go? You say. ”

"You think about it for the sake of the Uzuma...... It's okay to have children, I don't care...... I don't want anything to happen to you again......"

Lan Zi actually didn't understand a lot of things, and he couldn't fully understand and empathize with the meaning of these words, he just felt like hearing the most sorrowful cry in the world. The feeling was the same as the one he rescued from the orphanage when it caught fire a few years ago, and a month later he was in the hospital watching Sister Su Zhen die because she couldn't be treated. It was like that morning three years ago, when he realized that his grandmother had slept in bed for days without getting up, and he finally realized how it felt when he finally realized that she would never wake up, when he sat in the corner with his knees crossed, and the dark room was like a deep, quiet seabed, swallowing him up.

Even the sky he saw in the garbage dump had a beautiful and magnificent glow, but only at that moment, the whole world would be swallowed up in gray, and he was actually very afraid of death, afraid of the hopeless gray that would follow, and now he could vaguely see that gray again.

So I felt sad.
