Chapter 377 Returning to That Moment (2)
The old wall, which had been in disrepair for a long time, was mottled and heavy. Large pieces of paint were peeling off from the wall with the harsh sound of electric drills.
The police have already started to take action and are preparing to open a hole in the door and shout to the inside to ensure the safety of the hostages.
Everyone was temporarily isolated outside the cordon, waiting for the next action of the police.
Only Zhang Shuai and Lin Zhou insisted on guarding the door no matter how much they were persuaded.
"I'm the only one who knows what's going on inside. Those two are ruthless. If she's left alone in there now, they'll definitely not let her go..."
"Comrade police, once we break down the door, please let me in. I know those two people, and I'll go negotiate with them to get Tian Xin released."
Zhang Shuai pushed Lin Zhou aside, spoke his words first, blocked his mouth, and expressed his own position.
"What's the point of you going in?" Lin Zhou sneered at him, "Do you know why those two are making things difficult for her? With your impulsive style, going in will only add fuel to the fire..."
"It's just about money," Zhang Shuai interrupted him again, his voice unconsciously rising a few notes, and he said angrily: "I just realized now that you are a fucking coward. You only know how to confuse her with those tricks. Make her suffer and make her sad. I was also blind to leave her to your care. This is how you take care of her..."
After saying this, his voice softened, but suddenly he started to speak in a sarcastic tone: "Aren't you rich? What? Are you reluctant to give it up now? Do you know where she got the three hundred thousand just now to save you?"
Three hundred thousand?
Lin Zhou then remembered that just now, Tian Xin took out a card and said there was 300,000 yuan in it.
"What do you mean?" His throat tightened and he felt a little difficult to breathe.
"What do you mean? Humph—" Zhang Shuai snorted coldly, and the sarcasm in his tone became even more intense: "In order to save you, she asked me for money for the first time. From me, Lin Zhou..." He pointed at his chest, and the sarcasm in his eyes instantly reached its maximum, and at the same time, there was a hint of a wry smile.
"She never asked me for money. Even when she couldn't provide the villagers with the money for their goods, she never asked me to borrow a penny."
"But just now, she asked. Not just to borrow money, you know? She actually begged me...for you, she begged me."
Zhang Shuai didn't know whether he was crying or laughing. Although he was smiling, his eyes turned red in an instant.
"Okay, I'll return the money to you." Lin Zhou turned his head and sighed, "But the situation inside can't be solved with money, so don't argue. Even if you go in, it won't solve the problem."
"Then you are okay? Why didn't you bring her out just now?"
"I want to ask you something else." Zhang Shuai brought his face close to him, grabbed Lin Zhou's collar with one hand, and the knuckles of his other fist made a "cracking" sound.
"You keep saying you love her like your life, but why didn't you bring her out just now?"
"Bang——" A punch followed, and Lin Zhou staggered and almost fell down.
"Coward—"
Several detectives at the door were struggling with technicians to break down the door, and they were annoyed by the two men's quarrel. Seeing that a fight was about to break out, a police officer warned the two men, "It's already late, and you two still have the heart to fight? Don't you want to save people as soon as possible?"
After this sound, the fighting died down.
Zhou Ruilian had just caught her breath when she cursed Lin Zhenhua outside the cordon. Then, a quick glance revealed her son had been assaulted. She immediately rushed forward and demanded, "Who are you? Why did you hit my son?"
Zhang Shuai ignored her, snorted coldly, turned his head and walked towards the door.
Zhou Ruilian supported her beaten son, her eyes filled with heartache. But she couldn't help but ask, "Who is this boy? Why did he hit you?"
"Okay, Mom, stop asking. I'm fine!" Lin Zhou interrupted, wiped his mouth, and told Zhou Ruilian to wait outside first.
Arguing at this time is useless. Lin Zhou is well aware of this and does not intend to argue with Zhang Shuai.
The most important thing right now is to find out all the details about this woman named Li Ke. Only by knowing her true purpose can we resolve the current situation.
It’s too late to find someone to investigate. The only person who knows about them now is Zhang Shuai.
well……
Lin Zhou sighed, turned around, waved to Gao Cheng who was waiting in the distance, and went aside.
"Do you have any money? Lend me some." He lowered his head, extremely embarrassed. This was the first time he had asked someone for money since he was a child.
Gao Cheng's eyes lit up, a little disbelieving. But there was no time for jokes, so he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and said seriously, "Yes, how much do you want?"
"How many do you have?"
"Uh... I don't have much cash with me. If you need it, I'll call someone to bring it over right away..."
"Do you have your card?" Lin Zhou interrupted him. "I need something I can cash out immediately. Three hundred thousand, or more is fine."
"thirty?"
Gao Cheng frowned: "If I'm not your friend, you don't even need to ask for 300,000..."
"Cut the crap out of it. Do you have it? Are you going to lend it or not?"
"Lend it to me, lend it to me. Why differentiate between yours and mine at this time?" Gao Cheng quickly ran towards his wife.
Lin Zhou watched him lower his head as he explained something to Gao Wen. Within a second, Gao Wen reached out and twisted his ear, pulled out her wallet from her bag, and handed it to him. Then, she looked over at him and smiled.
He nodded at Gao Wen.
Gao Cheng quickly ran back and handed over the card between his fingers: "Here, there's about 500,000 yuan in it. The password is 060305."
"Thank you!"
Lin Zhou took the card and said, "I'll return it to you as soon as possible."
"No, I still have some. This is just a small amount. There's no rush to pay it back. My wife said..."
"I really want to be like you one day." Lin Zhou's eyes were full of envy, but his tone was lonely. "But maybe, there is no possibility."
"One million, Lin Zhou, you've emptied your family's savings this time, right? You've really invested a lot..."
"Don't tell Gao Wen."
Lin Zhou smiled crookedly: "If she wants to trick you, you better block her out a bit and don't sell me out."
"She already knew it a long time ago. She knew it too." Gao Cheng sighed: "Why are you doing this?"
"Others don't understand, so how could you not understand?" Lin Zhou put his hand on Gao Cheng's shoulder and patted him: "We..." He hesitated and changed his words when the words came to his lips: "Actually, I have always envied you."
"I see." Gao Cheng smiled and said, "Actually, Tian Xin isn't that difficult to deal with. As I said before, you're not using the right method." At this point, he seemed to remember something, and his eyes suddenly lit up. "Brother, listen to me, I've learned two new tricks recently. Once I rescue her..."
"Alright, alright, it's already late, and you still have the mind to talk about this." Lin Zhou turned back to his seat, not intending to continue the conversation. He took the card and patted Gao Cheng on the shoulder.
"Thanks, I'm leaving."
Zhang Shuai still stood guard at the door waiting for the police to break in and did not leave.
The piercing sound made my ears hurt. The wooden door had been cut into several pieces. It would only take a moment to break through the wooden board and communicate with the inside.
The police have prepared loudspeakers and negotiation experts, and several armed detectives have gathered at the door ready to break in at any time.
Lin Zhou glanced around and found that not far away were the thugs his father brought hiding. All of these people were top-notch fighters and could be used to block the attack in case of a critical situation.
He made up his mind and walked forward to stand side by side with Zhang Shuai.
"This is five hundred thousand. The extra amount will be included in the interest and I will pay it back to you."
Zhang Shuai glanced at the card in his hand, snorted again, and did not take it.
"I'm not taking advantage of you, and there's no need to pay it back now. Let's talk about it after this is over."
He actually feels guilty.
Because the 300,000 yuan was prepared by Li Jing, Tian Xin did not take his money. She did not beg him, on the contrary, he begged her, but Tian Xin said that she could not owe him for saving Lin Zhou.
He used these words to provoke Lin Zhou, just to find some dignity for himself, the dignity he had never gotten from Tian Xin.
A pursuer who is so humble as to be in the dust has never obtained dignity.
"Take it. I'm not giving it to you for free. I need your help." Lin Zhou insisted on giving it to him.
Is there something wrong?
Zhang Shuai turned around and looked him up and down with an incredulous expression: "You beg me?"
"Yes, I beg you."
Lin Zhou turned around and lowered his voice, saying, "Tell me about the details of those two people. You know everything. Tell me everything, no matter how big or small."
Zhang Shuai had already told the police everything about Li Ke and Liu Bo long before Lin Zhou came out.
Now if Lin Zhou asks again, he doesn't want to say anything.
Firstly, Lin Zhou should not interfere in this matter anymore. Secondly, his self-esteem is at work and he has his own selfish motives.
So, without a second thought, he shoved the card Lin Zhou was still holding back and growled, "Shouldn't the most important thing you should be doing right now be settling accounts with that woman? What's the point of coming here to ask me this?"
"Take your money and get out of here. Don't get involved here anymore. After today, she has nothing to do with you anymore."
Lin Zhou knew who Zhang Shuai was referring to as "that woman," but at this moment he just wanted to clarify the whole story so that he could negotiate terms with Li Ke later.
"I'll deal with Liang Xiao's matter after it's over. Right now, I just want to know what the feud was between Li Ke and Tian Xin."
"Heh..." Zhang Shuai sneered, "You'll be fussy about it, so forget it! Let go of the boss and live your own life. You two shouldn't get entangled anymore. Let her go, and let yourself go."
"Li Ke was once in jail because of Tian Xin, right?" Lin Zhou did not give up and continued to ask.
"have no idea."
"What happened? Why did she hate Tian Xin so much? And Liu Bo, had Tian Xin ever been with him before? They..."
"You farted—"
Zhang Shuai raised his fist and hit Lin Zhou again, but this time Lin Zhou grabbed his wrist.
The two were once again on the verge of a fight.
"You're still asking this kind of question, don't you know what kind of bastard that is?"
"Tell me the truth!" Lin Zhou roared, then lowered his voice. "I just want to know everything. When she comes out..." His voice began to tremble, and along with the hand holding Zhang Shuai, which was raised in the air, it trembled uncontrollably. "I just want her to come out safe and sound. After that, I won't bother her anymore."
After saying that, he let go of Zhang Shuai, his voice regained its composure, and he said seriously, "Tell me."
No matter how selfish they were, their common goal was to rescue Tian Xin. Zhang Shuai knew that Lin Zhou had the ability, but he didn't necessarily.
That's all.
He sighed softly, his eyes bypassing Lin Zhou, looking at the door that was about to break open, and slowly said: "Six years ago..."
