Chapter 16 Bonus given by the Municipal Bureau!
“Fuck.”
Xu Hao rubbed his head, looking surprised. He sat at the foot of the bed in his slippers, feeling that his mind was as messy as a ball of thread.
He had two dreams last night and thought he was observing from a third person's perspective.
But Xu Hao didn't expect to be completely immersed in the situation! He experienced the other person's emotions and anger 100%.
"What a dog!"
Xu Huo got up cursing and then sat on the chair.
He didn't sleep well that night, and felt very uncomfortable when he woke up.
He can't bear this sin alone.
Gotta share it with my readers.
The terminal website is launched! Soon, the sound of keyboard clacking rang out in the room. This time, unlike usual, Xu Huo typed for a long time and wrote all the manuscripts in one go.
The manuscript consists of about 30,000 words in total, and Xu Hao also thoughtfully added what he saw and heard in his dream.
The system judges the plot based on quality. He thinks his writing can at least be 50% accurate to the original case, if not 75% accurate! However, he doesn't know if his former readers miss him during the three days he was in the police station.
Thinking of this, Xu Hao moved the mouse and clicked on the comment section.
[The Fox Returns a Gratitude: I bow to you and wish the author a safe journey.]
【Talk, learn, amuse and sing: Two bows, two coins. 】
【Blowing bubbles with gum: Use it to burn incense every day. 】
[Glass of glass: +3]
[Nail clippers don’t cut flesh: I came to the wrong place upstairs. The forum is on the right hand side when you turn left. 】
[Maoqiu Maoqiu: Wuuwuwu, my author, you are leaving so tragically. How could you leave so easily, leaving us an orphan and a widow?]
Xu Hao:? Xu Hao's hand stopped, looking at the lively comment area, his brain was a little slow to react for a moment.
After a long while, the corner of his mouth twitched.
Good fellow, he hasn't updated in three days since he was sent to prison, and he has to play several instruments and sing several songs. "Tsk."
Xu Huo burst into laughter, and then published the manuscript on schedule.
He was not sure whether these manuscripts had to be published all at once or daily in order to get the reward, so he simply set a schedule for them all.
After the timing was over, he looked at the time.
At noon, at 12:27, Xu Hao was just about to eat something, but unexpectedly the cell phone on the table suddenly vibrated.
“Beep, beep, beep~”
【Caller ID: Half a beat slower】
Xu Hao smiled and chose to answer the call.
"Mr. Xu, the Municipal Bureau has brought you a bonus. Do you have time now? Do you want to come to the police station? "
As soon as I opened my mouth, a strong smell of corn grits hit me in the face.
The smile on Xu Huo's face disappeared, and it took him a long time to realize that it was Li Jianye's voice.
"Bonus? Didn't I have two requests?"
He remembered that when he solved the case, he did not ask for any reward.
"Hey, this is the rule in this country. Bounty hunters are not allowed, but you can get a certain reward if you help the police in some way."
Li Jianye held Chu Xi's cell phone in his hand and spoke cheerfully.
"It's a lot, a full 20,000."
Twenty thousand?
Xu Hao raised his eyebrows, "Okay."
After saying that, he hung up the phone, packed up his things and headed towards the police station.
Twenty thousand yuan is a lot, even 24 years in the previous life is a lot.
In 2003, the average salary in cities was about 1,000 yuan, and the average salary in rural areas was 600-1,000 yuan. 20,000 yuan was equivalent to a family's annual income.
As for the official average, there are too many people earning this average. For example, in 2024, the official average salary was 8,000.
Depends on the median.
For the median, 20,000 is equivalent to half a year's income.
Xu Huo went out and took a bus.
You need to buy a ticket for the bus, and there is a ticket seller standing on it, which looks very old-fashioned.
Not long after, he staggered to the police station.
As soon as I got off the car, a familiar face suddenly appeared in front of me.
"Hey, it's you!"
"Hmm? It's you."
As they came in and out, the two men looked at each other and pointed at each other.
[Your name]
"Wow, what a coincidence, buddy, I didn't expect to see you again!"
The person at the door was Wang Chao, whom he met at the breakfast stall. When he saw Xu Hao, he smiled and said,
"Tsk, we two brothers are destined to be together. We came to the police station while eating noodles."
He had gone to the intersection to join in the fun and happened to be caught by the police, who then brought him in to give a statement. Now that the case has been closed, he was asked to come again, and he didn't expect to run into Xu Hao.
“It’s fate indeed.”
Xu Hao smiled and said, "My name is Xu Hao."
"Xu Hao, right? Remember, I have something else to do, so I'll be out for a while!"
The young man with a crew cut, Wang Chao, was smiling cheerfully. Then he checked his phone and looked anxious again.
"I'm starting a business and I'm just about to go to the seafood place to investigate. I'll treat you to seafood when we meet again!"
"See you later."
Start a business?
Xu Hao raised his eyebrows, looked at the impetuous man, smiled, and said, "See you again if we are lucky."
The period from 2000 to 2009 was indeed a hot period of demographic dividend. There were a lot of entrepreneurs, with low risks and high profits. Even those who failed in their business could change their identities to get rid of their debts and continue their business.
Farewell Wang Chao.
Xu Hao continued to walk towards the interior of the brigade.
He walked into the brigade cafeteria very skillfully, and saw Li Jianye, Chu Xi and others as soon as he entered.
"Mr. Xu!?"
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
Li Jianye paused, then an eager expression appeared on his face and he quickly stood up.
"Have you eaten, Mr. Xu? I'll treat you!"
Without waiting for Xu Hao's answer, he was about to get the plate, but after a pause, he suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Chu Xi, his face full of confusion.
"I say, girl, you've got two servings of food and you haven't eaten yet. Your feelings are waiting here."
Chu Xi was still sitting on the chair. There were two lunch boxes in front of her, but she hadn't eaten them yet.
Hearing Li Jianye's voice, she tilted her head and blinked.
I don’t understand.
Xu Hao walked over to her skillfully, opened the pink lunch box, and a duck leg appeared in front of him.
"Mr. Xu, this is 20,000 yuan from the Municipal Bureau."
Not long after he finished eating, a policeman came up to Li Jianye and handed him an envelope.
Xu Hao nodded and took it.
Li Jianye smiled and didn't say any more pleasantries. After all, the other party was already the team's special consultant, had just received a bonus and had a little girl next to him, so he shouldn't be a light bulb and shine.
He and Zhao Shui and others left on their own accord and continued to finalize the case.
Xu Hao ate his meal silently while Chu Xi watched him eat with his eyes open. As he watched, he felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
Among the people the police station knew, Chu Xi was the one he had known the longest.
Probably when it was during junior high school, Xu Hao remembered that the other party fed her like this when she was a child. She was an orphan with little money, and she was always in a daze and didn't eat, so the other party gave her the food and watched her eat.
Weird feeding habits.
As for being in a daze, it is a disease. Xu Hao knows the root cause, so he will help her with police matters.
The other party's alarm was restarted.
Restart three times.
"for you."
Chu Xi had a small appetite and pushed the unfinished food to Xu Hao.
Xu Huo accepted everything that came his way. After finishing his two mouthfuls, he thought for a moment and then spoke again:
"I have some spare money now. I'll treat you next time. Is there anything you want to eat?"
Chu Xi thought about it for a long time, then shook his head.
"No."
"You must not have it."
Chu Xi thought seriously for a moment, then said, "How about grilled fish?"
Xu Hao didn't think much and nodded, "Eat!"
After a pause, he looked at the time and said, "Let's eat in the afternoon. Let's go eat after you get off work!"
"Alas, youth, alas, young men and women."
Li Jianye in the office took a sip of tea and spoke with emotion, feeling very comfortable.
Xu Hao's appearance appeared in his mind. He smiled, and suddenly seemed to remember something and stood up abruptly.
"Hey, Xiao Zhao, how's Mr. Xu's manuscript going?"
"Since we agreed to the adaptation, we naturally have to inform the website in advance. Did we forget to notify them before?"
There is nothing wrong with the manuscript, but if it causes a rift between the two sides, Li Jianye will have to slap himself in the face.
Zhao Shui thought of this and slapped his head.
"It's over. I was too busy finishing up last night and forgot about it!"
"Hurry up!" Li Jianye urged.
Zhao Shui quickly clicked on the website. He searched and found that the book had not been blocked. He breathed a sigh of relief and was about to report when he saw that the book had suddenly been updated with fifteen chapters.
Zhao Shui was stunned, and subconsciously said, "Boss, it's not banned, and I've updated fifteen chapters."
"Fifteen chapters updated? That's so many. You can't have finished writing the entire case, right?"
Li Jianye paused, then spoke with interest.
"Click in and take a look."
"Tsk, in Xiao Xu's eyes, this case is not a cool story? The kind without any knife involved?"
Zhao Shui nodded with emotion, and somehow moved the mouse and clicked [Start Reading. ]
