Chapter 37: Cry and it's all over
Zhai Da gave each of these strong men a cigarette, but no lighter.
The momentum of the fire is wrong.
They didn't want to chat with someone they didn't know, especially since this guy looked crazy, but they subconsciously took the cigarette, as if they had skipped the first step of getting to know each other...
What to do? Watch the cigarette fall to the ground?
Pure muscle memory.
After a while, the one who looked the most ferocious and had the word "loyalty" tattooed on his neck said:
"I don't know who Lu Benqing is. I just want to find Room 202."
Zhai Da nodded and understood, outsourcing business.
202 is Lu Wei’s home.
I lit a fire for myself, and the long-lost lung heat came back again.
The cough was almost choking.
Although Zhai Da looks young, he has captured the air of a social idler very well and doesn't look like a student.
Moreover, these days, there are a lot of young gangsters, and the younger they are, the more ruthless they are.
"How much does he owe you?"
The middle-aged man lit up his cigarette, the gold chain around his neck gleaming. "No, I'm working for pay. 200 per trip."
I understand. I'm not here to collect debts, I'm here to intimidate you.
"With so many of you, is two hundred enough to go around? Damn, is the market so bad right now?"
The middle-aged man laughed dryly: "Just to make a living, do the work, what are you doing here, little brother?"
Zhai Da exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Lu Benqing owes my eldest brother money. I'm here to pay him off. If I can't pay him off, I'll teach him a lesson. I'll break his arms and legs, throw two buckets of paint on him, and make him poop in front of the door."
The middle-aged man's eyes widened: "So... so cruel?"
Zhai Da sneered, "That's just the beginning. It's only natural to pay back a debt. He also has a daughter who's worth a bit of money. I'll take her away later. But let me make a deal with you, brother. The rules of the underworld can't be broken. You do your thing, and I'll do mine."
The effect of [Joker Poker] seemed to be working silently. The opponent had no suspicion at all and was completely led by Zhai Da...
There was absolute conviction in his eyes.
The middle-aged man swallowed and said, "Isn't this illegal?"
Zhai Da felt like his throat was about to smoke after taking two puffs, so he simply stomped out the half-smoked cigarette fiercely:
"Hey! I'm just following the rules. It's only 200 per trip. Don't meddle in other people's business. I'll just let you go back and give me an explanation."
The middle-aged man didn't even dare to smoke: "I'm just a moving company employee, what do I have to say?"
Zhai Da: ...
Moving company?
Damn, the moving company is dressed so fashionably? Why didn't you tell me earlier?
"Oh... I misunderstood. Where do you live, brother? I'll bring you some fruit tonight."
He couldn't help but be naughty.
The middle-aged man shrank his neck, and the "loyalty" on it was folded up by the flesh on his head, making him look like a "coward".
He laughed dryly, "No, no... I have diabetes and I don't eat fruit."
As he was speaking, several people walked out of the unit door.
There were police officers in uniform all over the place.
The opponent stood up in one second and started to launch:
"Comrade police officer! There's a criminal here! Catch him quickly! He wants to take revenge on me!"
Zhai Da: ...
————
A few minutes later.
"You think you're funny? You're so young, yet you've been watching too many Young and Dangerous movies?"
At the door of the unit, Zhai Da felt a little annoyed: "Comrade police, I'm just afraid of something happening. It's all bluffing."
The man who was educating him was about thirty years old and looked very resolute, giving Zhai Da the feeling that he had retired from the army.
Because his voice is so loud!
"I'm not a police officer. We're from FY. We're here to enforce the law. All procedures are completely legal and compliant. Please don't stop us from doing our normal work."
Zhai Da nodded: "Of course not... I just hope that when the evil really comes, you will happen to be there, or come in time."
"you!"
Zhai Da didn't dodge at all and looked straight at the other person.
Perhaps he couldn't answer Zhai Da's question, so he could only avoid looking at him.
Lu Wei was a few meters away, listening to another female comrade declare her rights and obligations, her expression calm.
Calm as if giving up all power to collapse.
Like a puppet, he is pushed forward by the world.
Zhai Da ignored the preaching man and walked straight to Lu Wei.
He gently touched the back of her hand.
Lu Wei remained motionless.
She was dressed very beautifully today, in a plain white shirt and a light blue long skirt. The rubber band of her ponytail was decorated with a small white flower. It was obvious that she was dressing up as best as possible for something.
"According to our investigation, you're already working and your employer can provide you with accommodation. Do you need us to contact the factory to arrange a dormitory for you?"
Lu Wei lacked reaction.
So Zhai Da said, "No need. You can contact the factory. I'm afraid they will fire her directly."
The middle-aged woman seemed to be the leader here. She glanced at Zhai Da but did not question him why he answered on behalf of Lu Wei.
He sighed and said, "Little girl, the person applying for execution is your uncle. You should know the details of what's going on better than us. I know your father is still in the detention center, but rules are rules. It's been a month since the deadline, and your father has been avoiding fulfilling his responsibilities and turning a blind eye to all our warnings. We can only implement this last measure."
"We've given you two hours to pack your belongings. We'll change the locks and seal the house shortly. From there, we'll go through the legal process. If the assets are sufficient to cover the debt, the remaining money will be returned to you."
Finally, he added: "Call the asset owner, that is,
On your father's account."
Zhai Da looked back at the dilapidated house...
Unless Lu Benqing owes no more than 50,000 yuan, there will be basically no surplus. It is almost the same as being insolvent. After all, his Sanmao house is only worth 80,000 yuan. The current housing price in Dongyang County is around 1,500 yuan. It would be good if Sunmazhuang could have 1,000 yuan.
And French P is cheap.
"Because you are an adult and working, you don't need living allowance. Of course, if you have difficulties in survival, you can actively apply for it. We will provide certain support for humanitarian reasons."
This time, Zhai Da did not answer on behalf of Lu Wei, but waited for Lu Wei's choice.
After a long silence, Lu Wei shook her head.
Maybe she doesn't need it, she just hasn't thought it through.
Everything happened so suddenly today.
It's all over.
The small home that Zhai Da had never entered from beginning to end became two old suitcases at the door of the unit.
A large number of "suspected valuable items" were moved down and loaded one by one onto trucks by the moving company.
The TV, the refrigerator...even the old dresser was not spared...
Before the uniformed men left, the man who had confronted Zhai Da came over and took out a business card.
"Your father may have some debt disputes that may affect you. If you have any problems, such as feeling threatened or coerced, please remember to call the police. You can also call us for legal advice."
"Remember, any debts incurred during the gambling process have no legal effect and do not need to be repaid. Furthermore, if children do not inherit an estate, they are not legally liable for any of their parents' debts."
Lu Wei didn't move, and the man handed the business card directly to Zhai Da:
"Take good care of your girlfriend. If anything happens, call the police. Stop pretending to be a member of society."
Zhai Da did not argue about the relationship issue. He looked down and saw that the business card read "Wang Guofeng" and his position was executor.
After this group of people left, Lu Wei remained silent and didn't say a word.
Zhai Da inexplicably took out a red cigarette from his pocket and lit one.
Sure enough, once you break the habit of smoking... you can't stop.
He just stayed with Lu Wei and waited quietly.
Until ten minutes later.
He whispered, "Cry now. They're all gone and no one can see."
Lu Wei: ...
A tear finally broke through the longest silence in the world, emerged from the bottom of the eye, and flowed down the pale cheek.
It fell on the back of Zhai Da's hand.
Warm, but losing temperature quickly.
Lu Wei took Zhai Da's hand and wiped away the tear for him.
"I'm sorry... I got your hands dirty..."
Zhai Da sighed and put his arm around Lu Wei's thin shoulders.
"Don't talk..."
"It's okay to cry at this time."
