Chapter 234 Listening to Opera



Seeing that everyone's eyes were fixed on them, the woman hurriedly pulled the man standing next to her aside and said, "Master, it's not me who's looking for you today, but this uncle. His phone was broken yesterday, so he asked me to try to connect."

Seeing the "handsome guy" was about to leave, the audience exploded instantly. They repeated a sentence that allowed the handsome guy and beautiful girl to be the background board behind.

Su Yan had no objection to the comparison, but the uncle who asked for help disagreed with this approach.

After sending the two out, he explained, "It's not that I don't want you to watch him, it's just that these things are a bit weird, and I think the fewer people involved, the better."

After hearing that there was a story to tell, netizens stopped making a fuss.

The man first briefly introduced himself.

"My name is Zhang Ciqiang, and I'm a small contractor. I usually take about ten of my brothers to do odd jobs.

Last month, an old customer of mine came to me and said he had a big business to do.

I looked around and found out it was a house demolition job, so I took it.

When we first started, everything was calm. We demolished the first four buildings smoothly, but when we were demolishing the last one, something unexpected happened.

Old Liu pulled his cotton coat closer and looked around with a flashlight.

This is the rule of the team. Someone must be on duty at the workplace every night.

At first, he didn't understand why the contractor insisted on doing this, until someone caught a thief stealing car parts in the middle of the night, and then he understood his boss's intention.

He is somewhat happy now. Every winter, the work on the construction site will decrease, and many of them will return to their hometown early.

Now that he has come across this great job, he can take home a lot more money this year and buy a few more new clothes for his children.

Just as he was patrolling, he suddenly heard a "ding" sound.

At this moment, he had a bad premonition in his heart. While dialing the phone of his coworker, he walked towards the place where the sound came from.

When he turned a corner, the sound of opera singing could be heard again in the building.

“At this time…”

Old Li was attracted by the singing style. All the workers on the construction site knew that he liked to listen to opera when he had nothing to do.

When he came into contact with the familiar area, his fear dissipated a lot, and he thought he had met a kindred spirit.

"Although the singing was beautiful, the corridor is not the place to perform opera at night. I still have to remind him to avoid complaints from others."

At this time, he was so intoxicated by the opera that he had forgotten that all the residents in the building had moved out.

He continued to move forward following the sound, and after walking for a while, he felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.

He looked up and saw a stage. "I was wondering why the road had widened. It turns out I've already left the community."

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding."

The sound of the opera's opening completely captivated his soul. He had forgotten what he was doing there and just found a stool to sit on and started listening to the opera.

Let’s talk about his colleagues.

The two people who lived nearby saw the message for help sent in the group and rushed to the construction site.

After they met up, they couldn't find Lao Li anywhere.

"What's wrong with this Mr. Li? He said he was in danger, but he didn't even send us his exact location. This neighborhood is so big, where are we going to find him?"

"Old Shen, I'm feeling a little uneasy. Do you think anything will happen to Old Li?"

As soon as he said this, the relaxed look on Old Shen's face disappeared. He frowned and said, "That's impossible. Even if there are thieves, they won't kill anyone."

"You never know. Who knows if you might run into someone crazy and heartless?"

As the two were talking, Lao Shen heard a familiar voice. He raised his hand to stop his coworker: "Don't make a sound, there seems to be some movement on the left."

Old Shen listened for a while and said with certainty: "I heard it right, this is the voice of Old Li, he likes to sing this part the most.

This old Li tricked us into coming here, but he went off to have some fun somewhere. I have to give him a good talk.

Although Lao Liao did not hear the words from his coworker's mouth, he decided to believe him after seeing his determined look.

"Come on, I'll go find him with you. If he doesn't have a perfect explanation, let him treat us to dinner tomorrow."

"Yes, and beer."

When the two of them came to the side of the stage after twists and turns, they saw Lao Li sitting alone on a tattered chair, beating the rhythm with his hands.

They hadn't noticed anything was wrong at this point, and sat down next to Lao Li angrily.

Old Shen was the first to speak out: "Old Li, are you kidding us? There's no danger at all."

Lao Liao also echoed: "Don't you know how cold winter nights are? Because of your lies, we crawled out of bed in the middle of the night."

Old Li was completely captivated by the performance on the stage. He casually explained, "I did hear a strange noise just now, but when I looked over, I found that it was the troupe rehearsing.

You know, I usually like to listen to some operas. Once I come across something I like, I forget about you.

Don't be angry, I'll treat you to lunch tomorrow."

The two men were not happy at all. They looked at the dark stage, and then at Old Li, who looked excited and even sang along, and they shuddered together.

"Old Shen, I don't see anyone on that stage."

"Not only is there no one on the stage, but besides Lao Li, there are only two of us in the entire venue."

They pinched each other's arms, and the pain in their arms confirmed that they were not dreaming.

"Lao Liao, do you think Lao Li is a person who is particularly good at disguising himself?"

"Of course not. He's known as an honest man in the team. He says what he thinks. For this reason, he even offended quite a few people when he was young."

"so……"

Lao Liao nodded heavily. "So, Lao Li must have been confused by something."

In a strange atmosphere, the two of them tacitly did not say that word.

Just as Tao was thinking about how to take Lao Li away without alerting the ghost, Lao Li began to talk to the "people" around him.

"I think this role is really good. I want you to come back and watch it tomorrow after work."

"Yeah, I haven't been to the theater to listen to a play in several years. I always feel that the new batch of plays lacks a bit of charm. I think the old famous actors still have a sense of touch."

This conversation caused the courage that the two men had finally built up to recede.

Old Shen didn't care about the difference between men and women and grabbed Old Liao's hand. "I think we're all surrounded by that kind of guy. It's really too risky to call him away now. Let's wait until he sobers up."

Lao Liao nodded in agreement: "I also think we shouldn't alert the enemy."
