Chapter 321 Li Jianbing
This man is called Li Jianbing, a retired plumber. He had repaired some unspeakable equipment when he was in the army. Later he was discharged due to injury. After returning home, he was assigned to a car repair shop. A few years ago, the auto repair shop was not profitable, so he was laid off. Currently, he takes private jobs and cooperates with some decoration companies.
It is hard work, but I earn a lot more money.
Li Jianbing took a bus from the city to Pingxi Town. He was quite confused. He couldn't understand why this customer went so far away and looked for a plumber in the city instead of a local one. Could it be that the local plumbers were not good enough?
He shook his head and went to Xu Kang's house according to the address.
Because Xu Jian was getting married and the wedding banquet was held in the city, the Tang family was also staying in a hotel, so they had not returned yet and Xu Kang was the only one in the house.
Li Jianbing introduced himself and just sat down and took two sips of tea when he was surprised by what Xu Kang took out.
"Is this a listening device? A monitoring device? Or a most advanced foreign product? What do you want to do?"
Li Jianbing looked at Xu Kang with a serious face and immediately expressed his position, "I will not do anything that violates the law! I advise you not to do it either, otherwise I will take the initiative to report you to the police!"
Xu Kang was scolded without saying anything. He was a little confused. "Wait a minute, wait a minute. Did you misunderstand something? I am a university teacher after all. How could I do something illegal?"
Li Jianbing's expression finally eased a lot, but he still kept asking Xu Kang what he was going to do.
Xu Kang had no choice but to contact Xu Jiahui and ask her to come over.
Xu Jiahui also knew that installing surveillance cameras should not be publicized, so she had to tell her cousin about her experience and began to wipe away tears with a sad face. "My cousin has a miserable life. She trusted the wrong person. The most important thing is that my uncle and aunt are too proud and don't believe what she said. Now my cousin is isolated and helpless. The man's family regards her as a thorn in their side. She installed surveillance and recording equipment at home because she was worried that she would be killed inexplicably.
Don't disbelieve me, there are more than one or two cases of wife murder in our town. You can go out and ask around and you will find out. As for this house, I can swear to God that it belongs to my cousin's in-laws. You can also ask the neighbors nearby. I am absolutely not lying!
Otherwise, I will record it for you. If we install this device and do something illegal, you can report me. I work in the system, and if you report me, I will lose my job and go to the public security bureau.”
Seeing her determined look and no guilt at all, Li Jianbing knew that what she said was most likely true. Another point was that it was Chen Wenjun who invited him, and he and Chen Wenjun were old acquaintances, so he trusted Chen Wenjun's character.
The two people in front of him both have decent jobs and are unlikely to do anything reckless. Judging from this comprehensive situation, he has a rough idea in his mind.
"Okay, I can help you with this. I don't want you to record it either. Just write me a guarantee stating the purpose of installing this equipment. Also, I have nothing to do with anything that happens afterwards."
He doesn't want to get involved in these right and wrongs.
Xu Kang quickly lowered his attitude and said with a smile: "This is necessary. After all, we are the ones who pay for the service. As long as you help install the equipment, the money and goods will be paid."
"Okay then, take me there."
Xu Kang quickly wrote an address to Li Jianbing, "Brother, the address is here, not far from our home. We can't show up in person, so you can go there by yourself, but you have to wait two hours."
Li Jianbing didn't understand what he meant, but he didn't ask any more questions.
After receiving the news, Xu Fangfang immediately took down the light bulb at home and replaced it with a broken one. Then she found her neighbor and asked if her husband was there and asked him to come over and help fix the light bulb.
At this time, except for the teachers who were on holiday, everyone was working outside, so there was no one to be found. The old lady next door came over to take a look and suggested that Xu Fangfang find a craftsman to come and fix it faster.
This was exactly what Xu Fangfang was waiting for. She called Li Jianbing in front of the old lady and gave him the address.
The process of waiting was boring, and since Xu Fangfang was pretending to correct the papers, the old lady left.
Li Jianbing arrived quickly.
Xu Fangfang took a look outside, quickly invited him in, and gently closed the door. She lowered her voice and said, "Master Li, the old lady across the street is my neighbor. She knows you're here to fix the light. Can you take a look at the wiring in my house? Where is the best place to install the equipment?"
Li Jianbing asked briefly and quickly found a hidden socket under the TV table in the living room. However, he did not install the equipment directly there. Instead, he modified the TV wires, led out a branch from the wires, and installed the pinhole camera in a stone potted plant on top of the TV cabinet.
The recording equipment is installed in the armrest corner of the sofa.
The other two sets were installed in Xu Jie's study and the master bedroom respectively.
It took less than an hour to install the three sets of equipment.
Li Jianbing then took the opportunity to help Xu Fangfang change a new light bulb to complete the act.
When he walked out of Xu Fangfang's house, he happened to meet the old lady who was coming back from a walk in the corridor and greeted her specially.
The old lady asked with a smile: "Young man, you look unfamiliar? Who is he from?"
"Oh, I'm here to fix the light."
The old lady suddenly realized, "We must go to Teacher Xu's house! Oh! The couple quarrels every day, every day, and there is a mother-in-law who protects her child. There is no peace all day long. When the light bulb is broken, Teacher Xu would rather ask my son for help than ask her husband to fix it. It's painful for us to see them living like this."
Li Jianbing smiled politely, and the slight uneasiness he felt disappeared, and he walked away very quickly.
After going out, he did not go back to find Xu Kang, but took the bus directly back to the city.
I called Xu Kang and told him about the situation after I got in the car.
When Xu Kang learned that he had left without receiving the money, he quickly contacted Chen Wenjun.
When Li Jianbing arrived in the city, he found Chen Wenjun waiting for him on the roadside as soon as he got off the bus. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, "You are amazing, how did you know I should get off at this stop?"
Chen Wenjun said as a matter of course: "This station is the closest to your home and workplace. Where else can you get off if not here? Tell me, what's going on? I'm asking you to work but I'm not charging you! When did you become so stupid?"
Li Jianbing shook his head listlessly, "I believe in your character, and I believe they are not bad people, but it's hard not to feel at ease doing this kind of thing, and it's even more uncomfortable to accept this money. If you really feel bad, just buy me a drink, and don't mention the money."
Chen Wenjun understood what he meant and turned around immediately, "Let's go! Let's go eat and drink!"
There is nothing more enjoyable than eating hotpot and drinking wine on a cold day.
After Chen Wenjun dealt with the situation, he called Xu Kang.
Xu Kang was completely relieved.
New Year's Eve is approaching, and every household is busy cleaning and preparing for the New Year. At this time, Xu Fangfang packed her luggage and quietly went to the city to join Xu Jiahui.
