The young man's eyes were rolling around, and he was about to try to fool around, but Lu Zhiye swung a dagger at him and stuck it in front of him.
"Don't play tricks on me. If you don't tell me, or if you tell a lie, the next dagger will be stuck in your head."
As he spoke, Lu Zhiye took out a dagger from his arms.
There was a flash of cold light, and the old man's legs trembled in fear.
The chicken coop was almost wet...
Before the young man could speak, the old man quickly took two steps towards Lu Zhiye and whispered, "What kind of people are you from?
We were temporary workers and a man gave us a few dollars.
As the saying goes, let us keep an eye on whether there is a little girl in your yard?
We have been watching for two days, but we haven't seen the person he mentioned!"
"What does he look like?"
“He said he was 18 or 19, and he showed us a photo of him as a child.
I was thinking that the little girl had grown up and no longer looked alike.
But I haven't seen any children this old after watching for a long time!"
Speaking of this, the old man felt a little angry.
After watching for two days, each person took two dollars without doing much effort, but in the end he didn't find anything. He felt guilty about taking the two dollars.
"Where are the photos?"
Hearing Lu Zhiye's question, the old man shrank his neck and said, "After we looked at it, the man took it away.
I’m afraid it might get damaged, my precious thing.”
"Where do you usually meet? Take me to him!"
Speaking of this, the old man shook his head like a rattle: "That won't work, that won't work.
.............
It’s at the entrance of Peace Hotel Hutong, I’ll take you there…”
Bang, the dagger was stuck right next to the old man's feet.
The old man swallowed and quickly changed his tone.
Lu Zhiye followed behind them, pulling the young man with a dagger against his back.
"You know those people, right?
Send them away, I don't want to see you at my doorstep again!"
The old man nodded his head like a woodpecker: "Okay, okay, I'll shout now!"
He put his hand to his mouth and whistled.
Several other people hurried over.
"Uncle Li, what's going on? Are you done for today?"
"Uncle Li Zi, who is this person?"
"Is this the new guy who joined us? Yo, look at his muscles, bro, you've trained before, right?"
A short man walked up to Lu Zhiye happily.
Seeing him and the young man arm in arm, I thought they were people I knew.
Noticing the dagger behind the young man, the short man's hands trembled and he withdrew his hands that were about to reach out to Lu Zhiye.
His eyes darted around the faces of several people, trying to attack Lu Zhiye when they were not prepared.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhiye's words made several people stunned: "You are loitering near my house. I can report this behavior to the police.
We all come here to make a living, and it seems that you are also a migrant worker.
Why not do some odd jobs during normal times, save some money, and go home in style during the New Year?
If I send you to the police station, will you still be able to be so carefree outside?"
The old man rushed to the short man and grabbed his hand.
With a smile on his face, he said to Lu Zhiye: "We are dazzled, dazzled. Come on, I will take you to find that man."
Just kidding, he can clearly tell the difference between a dollar and his life.
There is a state-owned hotel one street away from the Peace Hotel.
The old man pointed to the state-owned hotel and said, "Although he always invites us to the back door of the Peace Hotel.
But I saw him coming out of a state-owned hotel.
He should be staying here temporarily. We asked a beggar at the door to call him yesterday when we were looking for him. "
Lu Zhiye nodded to show that he understood: "Go and continue talking to the little beggar.
Just tell them that we have found the person, and all of you stay here and wait obediently. "
As Lu Zhiye spoke, he used his dagger to resist the pressure from the young man: "Don't play tricks on me, don't forget that your son's life is still in my hands.
As long as you lead the person out, I can assure you that this person will not cause you any trouble.
I will take care of the rest myself!"
These words relaxed the old man's tense heart. He was afraid of offending this person and couldn't afford to offend that person.
"Okay, then you wait here and I'll go and shout!"
About ten minutes later, a little beggar came running towards the state-owned hotel with a broken bowl in his hand.
The young man swallowed, straightened his waist and said softly: "Look, that person lives in the state-owned hotel."
"Shut up!"
Hearing Lu Zhiye's cold voice, the young man quickly shut his mouth.
About five or six minutes later, a man walked out of the state-owned hotel anxiously.
The young man's lips trembled, and he opened his mouth but did not dare to speak.
It was only when Lu Zhiye spoke that he said nervously: "It's him, he's the one who found us!"
Lu Zhiye pushed the young man and said, "Get out of here!"
Several people ran away tumbling.
Old Li, who came from the Peace Hotel, had just shown his head when he was dragged and rushed away by his son.
Lu Zhiye looked at the man carefully, and found that he looked familiar.
But he was sure that he had never seen this person.
The moment the man stepped out of the state-owned hotel, Lu Zhiye rushed up.
But before he could subdue the man, a big smile appeared on the man's face: "Brother Xiaoye!"
This scared Lu Zhiye. After confirming again and again, he realized that he did not know this person. He stood there alertly: "Who are you?"
The man pushed up his slightly long hair that covered his eyes and said, "It's me, Xie Jing. Back in Tonghe County, you saved me and Yueyue. Do you remember? And Brother Xiaoqiang!"
Lu Zhiye suddenly realized, the vigilance on his face disappeared, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Now thinking back to what the old man said, Xie Jing should be looking for Yueyue...
Xie Jing looked around and even looked inside the state-owned hotel.
Then he said nervously: "Brother Xiaoye, someone is following me here, it's not convenient for us to talk.
Let’s go to the other side!”
Lu Zhiye's eyes turned cold, it seemed that what he felt just now was not an illusion.
Looking up at a place on the third floor of Guoying Hotel, there was a person standing at the window of the room.
Xie Jing also followed his gaze and met his grandfather's eyes.
The smile on his face gradually faded...
