The parking lot of Night Rose late at night is a huge lifeless cave, desolate and dark. Occasionally, a car light flickers by and then disappears quickly, like the cold ghost fire of hell. Even the sound of tires rubbing against the ground sounds like the shrill cries of wandering ghosts.
The black car was hidden in the shadow of the cave like a ghost. Zhong Mang opened the thermos, which was empty. He poured it gently, and a small bag of white crystal powder slipped out from the mouth of the cup. He held it in his palm and handed it to the man in the passenger seat.
The man weighed the small bag of ice crystals and smiled with satisfaction.
Zhong Mang said nothing. He got out of the car and took out his electric bike from the trunk. After turning it on, he said to the customer standing at the front of the car, "Boss, you are welcome to ask me to drive you next time."
As soon as Zhong Mang rode out of the parking lot, he received a payment from Alipay.
He could earn 500 yuan for delivering five grams of methamphetamine.
Considering the huge profit of selling one gram of methamphetamine for one thousand yuan, the money he got was not much, but compared with working diligently as a designated driver every night, this income was ridiculously high.
The customer base online is basically middle class, living in high-end communities, driving nice cars, and wearing fancy clothes. They usually buy ice in batches of three or five grams. The most he has ever delivered was ten grams, which made him earn a thousand yuan in one trip.
Zhong Mang is not qualified to contact customers with higher purchasing volumes.
And what about him before? He would just occasionally pool money with others to buy a gram, which was enough to keep them high for several days.
He had quit drugs, but he never expected that he would step into this abyss again.
Soon a message came in, asking him to pick up the goods at the pickup point in this area.
The people online are very vigilant and change their mobile phone numbers every day. They have their own secret codes and jargon. The pickup points are spread all over the city, with two to three points in each district, and they change locations from time to time. This time, they went to a courier cabinet in a residential area to pick up a temporarily stored package.
He came to the designated express cabinet, looked around, pulled up the black mask on his face, lowered his helmet, and quickly scanned the code to open the box.
when!
The sound of the door opening was unusually loud in the silence, which frightened him so much that he felt a chill on his back and twisted his neck to look around quickly.
He always felt that there were many pairs of eyes silently watching him in the dark.
Every tree and grass looks like an enemy.
He leaned over and quickly took out a bag of instant noodles from inside. The cartoon figure on the big red packaging bag smiled at him, looking extremely weird under the pale street light, like a white-faced ghost guarding a coffin in a mourning hall.
Zhong Mang shook his head to get rid of his wild thoughts and rode away on his bike.
He found an empty alley and opened the instant noodles package.
In addition to the noodles and seasoning packets, there was also a small bag of methamphetamine inside.
The expensive drugs were packed in the cheapest ziplock bags. The tiny crystals looked like a handful of frost scraped from the old-fashioned refrigerator in Chen Shanye's rental house. The chill emanating from them penetrated through his palms into the subcutaneous blood vessels and froze his blood.
Instant noodles are just one way to deceive people. There are many other disguises. The most common one is a cigarette box, sometimes a candy box, and sometimes a hollowed-out poetry book...
He gave away a lot, so he knew how many grams it weighed as soon as he got it. He put the small bag into the thermos while thinking about the route to the customer.
The white-faced little man was thrown into the trash can, and perhaps he would be taken away by a scavenger or a rat later.
The rest of the process is the same as taking orders on ordinary days, picking up the person at the customer's designated location, driving the customer to another designated location, and handing the goods to the customer.
No one would pay special attention to the designated drivers traveling in the dark. In order not to arouse suspicion, Zhong Mang would also take two or three orders from platforms that were not far away.
It just so happened that Chen Shanye was away from Tangxia Village more and more often, and he didn't deliberately inquire when Brother Shanye would come back. Instead, he would occasionally send him his location to let him know that he was working.
Soon another 500 yuan came in.
Making money this way was so fast, so fast that he kept running until dawn and was never tired of it. It was so fast that he had no time to regret or feel guilty.
He was still optimistic and set a goal for himself. He would stop when he earned enough money, take the money home and buy a house for his grandmother. If he couldn't afford a commercial house, he would build a new house for her in the village.
He ran to the next pickup point, letting the flashing neon lights in the dark night deform and distort his shadow.
The end of the road, where the scenery ahead is unclear, is like the mouth of a hungry beast, staring at its prey, waiting for it to rush into its mouth and bite its neck.

“Hmm! Ah——”
After Luo Rui let out a loud moan, her sweaty body fell on Zhong Mang as if she had lost her soul. Zhong Mang panted, pulled the sweaty person up a little, and kissed her lips for the final touch.
The air conditioner outside the wall was a bit noisy, and the buzzing sound filled the small room. After resting for a while, Zhong Mang pulled his limp penis out of Luo Rui's body. He was not willing to let her go, and kept chasing her to kiss her. His palms also roamed back and forth on her body, rubbing her small butt left and right, and he was very happy.
"Okay... stop touching me, or I'll do it again later." Luo Rui pushed him away unhappily. It had already happened twice tonight, and it was not impossible to do it again, but it would still consume her energy.
"What? Why can't we do it again? You just kept shouting 'Brother is so good' and 'Faster'..." Zhong Mang imitated Luo Rui's moans and slapped her butt several times, "Little slut, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so slutty?"
"I missed you. I haven't seen you for so many days. I almost thought you had a new love." Luo Rui sat up, leaned on him and blinked at him.
Zhong Mang took out cigarettes and lighters from the bedside: "I have only been looking for you for the past two months, you know that."
"Then why didn't you contact me for so many days?"
Zhong Mang took a puff of his cigarette, then took the girl's hand and kneaded it carefully: "Busy, making money."
"You've been working really lately. Do you have so many orders?"
"Yeah, I've been running around lately. As soon as I finish delivering a shipment..." He paused, then changed his tone: "After delivering one customer, another shipment comes in. I haven't stopped all night."
Luo Rui helped him take off the condom filled with white liquid and threw it into the trash can. Zhong Mang looked at the woman's white body and felt a little thirsty. But he had already come twice tonight and was a little hungry. He asked Luo Rui, "Are you hungry? Shall we go get some midnight snack?"
"OK!"
Luo Rui took a shower first, and after she came out, Zhong Mang also took a shower.
Listening to the sound of water dripping in the bathroom, Luo Rui squatted on the ground and secretly opened the backpack that Zhong Mang usually used to work. After flipping through it, she found only a power bank, wet wipes and some other equipment inside.
Not finding anything special, she zipped back up her backpack and her eyes fell on the thermos in the pocket next to it.
The cup was heavy, and when she picked it up, there was a sound of water sloshing inside. She opened the lid and smelled it. It was lemon tea, sour and slightly sweet.
After putting everything back in place, Zhong Mang's single room could be seen at a glance. She had been there several times and had never seen any drug paraphernalia like curling stones, nor had she seen the unpleasant smell after ice skating.
...Tsk, it reminds me of all those disgusting things that happened in the past.
Luo Rui picked up Zhong Mang's cigarette box, lit one, put it out before Zhong Mang finished his shower, and calmed herself down.
The two changed their clothes and prepared to go out. Zhong Mang remembered something: "Hey, wait, I almost forgot I have something to give you."
Hearing this, Luo Rui was overjoyed and followed him like a little sparrow: "You have something else for me? What is it?"
Zhong Mang opened the wardrobe and bent down to touch a small box. It was a dark red velvet jewelry box that looked small and exquisite between the man's slender fingers.
"Didn't you complain to me on WeChat before about that girl in the store always showing off her shabby chain in front of you? I bought you one too."
Zhong Mang smiled and opened the box. A thin gold chain lay quietly inside, still sparkling with star spots under the dim incandescent light. A small gold plate with the letter R engraved on it hung on the chain.
Luo Rui's vision blurred for a moment, and even her voice was filled with tears: "...Is this going to be very expensive? You've spent too much money on me lately, please stop wasting money..."
Zhong Mang took her hand and said, "I'm happy to spend money on you. I'll put it on you."
"Well, help me put it on..."
An exquisite gold chain was wrapped around her wrist, and the small gold medal was swaying. Luo Rui was holding Zhong Mang's arm with joy, and for a moment she felt that she saw some hope in life.
