Rival
Chen Ping sat in a taxi with a postcard in his hand.
The old-fashioned taxi is driving at 70 yards per hour to its destination, the Morning Glory Orphanage.
This is a welfare institution that Chen Ping has never heard of, and in his impression, the well-known welfare institutions have strong support from the federal government.
It is generally called the first welfare institute and the second welfare institute in a certain city, which sounds very dignified and credible.
As for the Morning Glory Welfare Institute, it is estimated that it should have been donated by some well-meaning non-governmental organizations.
Thinking of this, Chen Ping couldn't help but be in awe, there are not many enthusiastic people in these years.
The driver parked the car on the side of the road, looked at Chen Ping, and suddenly said righteously: "Brother, I'll give you a free order this time." ”
"You don't need to have any doubts, I think this is what I should do, and if you can, I hope you will help me pass on this kindness when others are in trouble."
Until the driver's uncle left, he still hummed: "As long as everyone gives a little love, this world will become a beautiful world......."
Chen Ping stayed where he was, and said in his heart: "Uncle is really misunderstood?" ”
Do I really look like a good person?
Well, it seems to be a little.
However, he also has two loaded Desert Eagles in his backpack, which can knock down a large number of people in a matter of minutes with the pull of the trigger.
Looking back, it is a remnant of the old town, with old-fashioned double-storey slab houses on both sides of the street, and the main road in the middle is in disrepair and the pavement is full of potholes.
The Morning Glory Orphanage is housed in one such family building, with a reinforced fence outside.
However, judging by the color of the wall, it should be twenty or thirty years old.
The old guard looked at Chen Ping with cloudy eyes.
What is the matter with a man in his forties and fifties coming to the orphanage?
But soon, the other party's valuable outfit and aura from the superior quickly dispelled his doubts.
Chen Ping took out a thick pile of hundred-yuan bills from his bag and said, "Big brother, I'm here to donate, by the way, come and see the children." ”
The old man's passion was ignited by the other party's actions at once, after all, there are fewer and fewer people who are enthusiastic about donating these years.
"Oops..."
The uncle was surprised: "A good person like you will definitely have good rewards in the future." ”
As he spoke, he asked Chen Ping to wait for him in the same place, then turned around and dialed a phone call, and came back and said, "The teacher will take you in to meet the dean in a while." ”
Soon, a young woman came out of it, with crisp short hair, dressed plainly, but with a good face.
The woman walked up to Chen Ping, bowed slightly, and said, "I am the children's teacher, please allow me to thank you for your donation on behalf of the children." ”
It was clear that she had learned the purpose of the visitor from the security guard, and her heartfelt gratitude was self-evident.
Over the years, as the city has shifted, fewer and fewer people live here, and attention to welfare homes has declined, so there are very few companies and well-wishers who come to donate.
Now the expenses of the hospital are basically supported by the old dean alone.
"Joe... Sister Qiao? ”
Chen Ping recognized the other party at first sight, and said in his heart that it wouldn't be so coincidental.
When Chen Ping was a child, his family also lived in the old city, and Qiao Xue was the daughter of their old neighbor, because she was a few years older than him, so she took good care of Chen Ping like a sister.
But then I heard that she had dropped out of school because of school violence, and I never heard from her again until they moved out.
Qiao Xue was stared at intently by Chen Ping, her face was a little hot, and she put her hair behind her ear with her right hand and said, "I'll take you around first." ”
The two walked into the inside of the welfare home.
Qiao Xue pointed to the family building and said, "The room here has been used as a classroom for the children, as well as a dormitory. ”
"It's the children's lunch break, so it's very quiet, I think you can go shopping alone first, and I'll go to the dean first."
Although Chen Ping was slightly disappointed, he quickly regained his composure.
He sat on the concrete-poured steps and looked around at his surroundings.
For some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity, but he couldn't put it into words.
Probably because he was born with a sense of affection and empathy for a life of poverty.
"Crunch... Crunch..."
The swing in the amusement park not far away suddenly swung up, up and down, and the difference became bigger and bigger, but there was no one on it.
This scene makes people feel very weird and terrifying.
It's really unusual here.
Ordinary people are helpless in the face of this situation, but Chen Ping is different, he has the ability to see through the essence.
The golden pupils lit up, and an illusory figure was exposed in front of him, and the woman also looked at him curiously with her eyes open.
Chen Ping tried to greet her tentatively.
The girl's mind went blank for an instant, and she could vaguely see the expression on her face changing from doubt to joy.
The girl jumped in the direction of Chen Ping.
As the distance between the two sides continues to get closer, the girl's appearance gradually stitches with the photo in her memory, which is simply flawless.
Chen Ping suddenly understood, it turned out that this abandoned child was still an alien.
The people in the welfare home must have known that she was special, and deliberately hid her, so much so that they even deceived the official interrogation, allowing Liu Hong and them to return in vain.
The girl pulled on her slippers and knelt on the steps below Chen Ping, her words a little uncertain: "Can you see me?" ”
"Well, I can see it."
Chen Ping nodded.
Before coming to the orphanage, he bought some candy and put it in his backpack for emergencies.
The girl's eyes were attracted by the candy, and although she wanted to eat it, the teacher told her that she could not eat anything from strangers.
Chen Ping smiled: "Eat!" My name is Chen Ping, and I am good friends with your teacher Qiao Xue. ”
When the girl heard this, she happily took the candy in Chen Ping's hand, thinking that Teacher Qiao was a good person, so her good friend must also be a good person.
Chen Ping took the initiative to touch the top of the girl's head and felt that the child was very cute.
Once, on a very dark day, words were like a bolt of lightning that shattered his obscure life.
He remembered that he had read a novel called Jianlai before, and there was a sentence in it that his favorite sentence was what the male protagonist said to his apprentice.
"The shoulders of the young man, this is the right way, what kind of hatred of the family and the country, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, first provoke the breeze and the bright moon, the willows are still around, and the grass grows and the warbler flies, the arrow of the young man is a beautiful thing."
Chen Ping hid his desire for life in the depths of his heart and took care of countless days and moons alone.
"Grandpa Chen, my name is Pomegranate."
"Grandpa?"
Chen Ping was slightly stunned before he reacted, it turned out that he was using Liu Kang's face at this time.
"Dean, this way."
Qiao Xue's voice came from not far away.
The girl's face changed greatly, and she said in a panic: "I'm going to run away, don't tell the truth!" ”
"If you are caught taking a nap by Teacher Qiao, you will be punished for copying homework."
Pomegranate ran as she spoke, and soon disappeared from the corner.
Helping this kind of thing is just a phone call for Su Youwei.
In less than half a day, Su Youwei came to inform Chen Ping that it was done, and she waited for the room.
After class, Zhu Li came to find him and forcibly pulled him into the car.
"The puppeteer said he had to see you before he could explain the matter."
Chen Ping couldn't help but complain in his heart: "So I'm your employee, right?" Say take it away? ”
It's really hard to say whether the salary is high or not for working for this kind of organization, but the danger is relatively high, and if you don't die, you will have to be half-disabled.
When the car drove to the front of the transcendent place, I saw Wang Ruyue walking with her waist twisted, followed by two waiter ladies.
Chen Ping sighed in his heart, this posture, it seems that this mission must be not small!
"Come in and talk."
Wang Ruyue's beautiful eyes swept over the two of them, and her eyes paid a little more attention to Chen Ping.
Chen Pinghu asked suspiciously: "Sister Yue, where is Qingjia?" ”
"She! After the mission, I went back to Cloud City to report for duty. ”
When Chen Ping heard this, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Although I have already made a plan in my heart, I suddenly have one less follower around me, and I am suddenly a little unaccustomed to it.
Wang Ruyue seemed to see through it, and bypassed the topic and said, "We found out that this puppeteer is a member of the Cloud City Tianlong Chamber of Commerce. ”
"Celestial Dragon Chamber of Commerce?"
Chen Ping was a little incomprehensible: "What does this have to do with me, I have no grievances with them." ”
"Don't take yourself so seriously, they're here for the Su family."
"It's just a matter of killing you."
Chen Ping suddenly came to his senses that it was the trouble caused by saving Su Youwei in the first place, so he asked weakly.
"The Su family, is it really that powerful? made the other party so unscrupulous. ”
Wang Ruyue frowned and chuckled: "The Su family, it's not as simple as you imagined. ”
Zhu Li nodded and said: "Northern Qin and Song, Southern Su Li, this Su family was one of the four families in Kyushu back then. ”
Hearing this, Chen Ping couldn't help but feel a chill behind him, it turned out that Su Youwei's back was so terrifying.
Suddenly, he realized that he didn't seem to know as much about Su Youwei as he imagined.
Zhu Li said: "So, back to the beginning, do you want to join us?" ”
Chen Ping was silent, he originally wanted to get more official wool, but the more he went, he found that he seemed to owe more and more, as if no one believed him who said that he was not an official now.
"I promise."
Chen Ping's voice broke the brief silence.
Wang Ruyue smiled and surrounded Chen Ping, and the two white rabbits on his chest looked at him with fear.
"Good brother, do you have to vote for us first!"
Chen Ping understood in his heart, and the other party meant to help complete the puppeteer's order in order to be counted as a partner.
He wanted to blurt out a refusal, but when he thought that Qin Zhiyu seemed to be an official thing, if he refused this operation, would the other party take it back!
Anyway, he has personally tested the benefits in the past few days, and this jade is simply a good thing.
"Huh"
The corners of Chen Ping's mouth trembled slightly, and he said, "Sister Yue, of course, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell!" ”
In the face of beauty and money, Chen Ping still maintains a first-class ideological consciousness and action style, and meticulously implements his style.
Chen Ping followed the two of them down the stairs and came to the basement of the office.
The training room was buried ten meters underground, but it was only when I got below that I realized that it was not like that.
The decoration of the ground floor is still in a luxurious style, with a red carpet in the middle and glass lamps on the sides.
Where is this interrogation of prisoners, obviously they are here for vacation.
The basement has a good ventilation system to ensure that the air in the underground office area is clear, while the interrogation room where the prisoners live is not so simple.
Through the fence gate, you can vaguely see the stagnant water all over the ground, the corpses of dead rats, and maggots crawling all over the ground......
Following Zhu Li's gaze, Chen Ping saw the security guard Dongzi in the room, that is, the puppeteer.
