Chapter 9 Temporary workers are amazing, aren't they?
Li Zhen had imagined several times when he met his brother, the far mountain.
For example, the two stood on an empty street, with bloody sunset and smoke on the battlefield. Then they strode closer, slapped each other on the back, and said excitedly that the brothers did not expect to meet again.
Or one day, he was on the street in a military vehicle and hurried to the battlefield, while Qi Yuanshan stood silently among the crowd on the roadside, nodding to him expressionlessly, and then whispered, brother, you must come back.
But no matter what, he didn't expect it to be the current situation-
He sat on a chair beside the hospital bed and was not skillfully peeling apples, while Qi Yuanshan stared at the ceiling, and the ward was silent.
Finally, the apple was peeled, but it shrank a lot. He used two fingers to hold the apple and sent it to Qi Yuanshan, and said with a smile: "Is it an apple? It's good for the health."
Qi Yuanshan looked at him squintly and said in a muffled voice: "No eating!"
Li Zhen looked at his neck bra: "If you really don't want to eat, you will turn your head over."
Qi Yuanshan glared: "Your neck is broken, can you turn it? Besides, the girls peel it after eating apples."
Li Zhen smiled apologetically: "I know you have been to me for a fight."
Qi Yuanshan snorted: "I just think they are unhappy, I'm happy to fight."
Li Zhen sighed, put the apple on the bedside table, and said sincerely: "When we first met, you bought me a box of lunch, and then took me to your aunt's shop to work, giving me a place to settle down. Now I am hospitalized for the things I have caused - the drip of water should be repaid, and I really don't know how to repay you. But I really couldn't get rid of myself some time ago. I asked my comrades to come to see you, but you were no longer there at that time."
Qi Yuanshan was silent for a while and took a few breaths: "Okay, you have to repay me and get Yu Yongqiang killed. Let's clear up."
Li Zhen said in a deep voice: "I will definitely do this, don't worry."
After he said this, Qi Yuanshan looked at him a few more times, coughed a few times in a cowardly manner, and relaxed: "Are you really an officer?"
"Yeah. Lieutenant." Li Zhen nodded.
"Why have you become an officer? It's really okay for your family? Didn't you tell me that you came from the Nanbian Township?"
Li Zhen smiled bitterly: "Didn't you tell me this before? Something happened to me at that time, so it's hard to say it, but..."
"All right. If you can't say it, I won't say it." Qi Yuanshan interrupted him in a rough voice, "Anyway, my aunt said you are from the confidentiality army. I guess you have lie to me again and again."
Li Zhen had to smile bitterly again, speechless. This cute and simple friend obviously forgave him now, but he was not as unhappy as before. But at least he had begun to think about himself as he used to, not wanting to make things difficult for him, and no longer questioned him.
The two of them sat silently for a while, and Qi Yuanshan asked again: "Didn't you really recognize the relative of some big shot?"
Li Zhen straightened his back and raised his hand: "I swear to God this."
So Qi Yuanshan also sighed: "Let's forget it. My aunt told me that there are people in the family of those three little bastards, and the store has been closed. After all, you have made a fortune, so don't get involved in this matter. Wait for me... I'll go to educate those three little bastards myself..."
Qi Yuanshan was no longer angry, and Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up, put his hand gently on Qi Yuanshan's chest, and looked into his eyes: "Yuanshan, listen to me. You are here to recuperate, you don't need to worry about anything else. Speaking of fighting, I am better than you. I promised you just now that this matter will have a result, and now this guarantee is still valid."
Qi Yuanshan was stunned. He could also see how sincere his friend's eyes were - that was definitely not what he said to comfort himself. But he still shook his head: "Don't talk nonsense to me. I have never been a soldier, but I know a little bit. If you dare to fight outside, you will not be in a confinement after going back. Do you understand that it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years? Is he not a short time for these days!"
At this time, Aunt Liu came back with the lunch he had made for Qi Yuanshan. When she saw him excited, she quickly shouted: "Yuanshan, what are you doing? Stop it for me!"
Qi Yuanshan raised an arm and pointed at Li Zhen: "Auntie, he said he wanted to take Yu Yongqiang..."
"I'm not that stupid." Li Zhen smiled, stood up again, looked at Aunt Liu, and then looked at Qi Yuanshan, "Just one word, do you believe me?"
Qi Yuanshan's mouth moved. He wanted to say that he really wanted to say he was, of course he didn't believe you, you cheated me miserably! But when he saw Li Zhen's extremely solemn expression, he had to mutter in a low voice: "Anyway, don't cause trouble because of this."
"Then you can rest assured to recuperate here." Li Zhen smiled and nodded to Aunt Liu again, "Auntie, I'm leaving now. You are here to accompany him. If someone comes to harass you - if you have my phone number, you call me."
Aunt Liu looked at him worriedly: "You...ah, Yuanshan is right, don't get into trouble because of this. Now we just want to open the store again."
"Don't worry." Li Zhen glanced at his friend for the last time and walked out of the ward.
The air in the corridor was a little cool, but it also made him feel more awake. He smiled coldly and murmured to himself.
"Come on trouble? I'm just afraid that things will not cause big enough."
Forty minutes later, he returned to Taoxi Road.
It was already noon. In the morning, I ate a tray of small buns, and my stomach was empty. So he came to a fast food restaurant and sat down and ordered a lion-headed rice. He originally planned to fill his stomach well, but when the rice was brought up, he frowned. What a joke... A bowl full of white rice, with a layer of soup poured on it, three slices of boiled cabbage leaves piled on the soup, and half a meatball was placed.
He picked up the chopsticks and poked the meatballs. They were as hard as if they were made of rubber.
But he still pinched it up, put it at his mouth and took a bite, then looked out the window.
Across a street, opposite the Taoxi Road Police Station. A sign with a white background was hung on the vermilion gate post, and three police cars were parked in the yard. It was lunchtime, and he saw several policemen walking towards the store - looking at their armbands, they seemed to be auxiliary police.
These are the people waiting for.
Those auxiliary police officers were obviously old customers. After entering the store, they exchanged greetings and then sat down next to the window - next to Li Zhen. He chose this table to guess that those people might sit in a wider place due to their professional habits. Now it seems that they guessed right.
They chatted while waiting for the meal, and the topic they mentioned was something Li Zhen had thought of before - complaining that the government employees who were not in the company were treated poorly and could only come to such a store for lunch.
Li Zhen looked at the remaining half of the meatballs in his bowl and felt that what they were saying was the truth - this thing was obviously made of shoddy ham mixed with starch, and it cost him two dollars.
After slowly ate all the things in his bowl, he drank a small bowl of seaweed egg flower soup with him. Then he said to an auxiliary police officer who was sitting next to him and a meter away, "I'll ask if I'm asking, was there someone here some time ago?"
The man was chatting with his colleague, but he was stunned for a while when he heard him talking, then turned his head and said, "You ask me?"
Not only him, but also the five people at the same table fell silent and looked at Li Zhen together.
Li Zhen smiled kindly: "Yes. I heard about it when I passed by, but I didn't see any news reports."
Several auxiliary police officers looked at each other, and then the person who was talking to him looked dark: "You ask what you do. Everything has passed."
Another grader was a little older and looked up at him: "Are you a reporter from the newspaper?"
Li Zhen smiled and shook her head: "No. Just ask."
"Then there is nothing to ask about this." The man frowned and looked him up and down, and then said, "If you are really a reporter, please ask your leader first, and then you will know whether you should ask about this matter."
"I said so that the TV and newspapers didn't report it because someone said hello in advance?" Li Zhen nodded, "Then I'm really guessing it right."
The man next to him wanted to stand up, but the older one held him down and looked at Li Zhen: "Young man, don't ask if you have nothing to do with you, go."
"Well, okay." Li Zhen nodded and agreed, then stood up and really left.
He was as good as a stream of people, while the others were stunned for a while. Then he saw him walking through the window to the side of the road, crossing the road again... and heading towards the police station gate.
The six auxiliary police officers looked at each other, stood up at the same time, left half of the meal and chased after him.
Li Zhen walked slowly, so he had just walked into the police station gate when the six people caught up with him. Hearing the footsteps behind him, he stopped and turned his head, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"
The man who was asked by him before looked scared: "Why are you here?"
Li Zhen opened his mouth in surprise: "Isn't this Taoxi Road Police Station? Can't I advance as an imperial citizen?"
"Of course you can get in. But I think you are making trouble." The other party snorted, "I advise you not to do this, and don't be able to take care of it."
Li Zhen sneered and looked at his armband: "Assistant police... are temporary workers amazing? Can temporary workers threaten people? I will still complain to you."
"Please pay attention to the words. What is temporary workers? We are government employees. Wearing this outfit represents the imperial government - I'll ask you again, what exactly are you doing?" The man stepped forward, but wisely did not have physical contact with Li Zhen next to the street.
