"Old Jiang, open the door."
Wu An arrived at the convenience store and banged on the door.
He needed a computer to transfer the video to a USB drive, but the old house didn't have one. His older brother did, but he didn't want to bother his brother and sister-in-law.
It's good if they're asleep, but what if they're not?
He couldn't bear the responsibility if it affected his elder brother and sister-in-law's ability to have a child.
We can only let Old Jiang suffer.
Old Jiang opened the door: "Ah An, have pity on my hair."
Wu An entered the room: "Pack me two cartons of cigarettes, I'll take them with me later."
Old Jiang beamed: "Okay, okay, okay."
With the tangible benefits in hand, Old Jiang beamed like a blooming chrysanthemum and asked, "What's up?"
Wu An said, "Let me use your computer."
Old Jiang glared: "Do you think this is an internet cafe?"
Wu An said, "Three Chinese cigarettes."
Old Jiang opened the door to the inner room and said, "A'an, I'm not a money-grubber; I'm just a kind-hearted person."
"You can use the computer anytime you want in the future."
The inner room wasn't big, perfectly embodying what a greasy middle-aged man's doghouse should look like.
Wu An pushed aside the executive chair, which had become so worn it was black and shiny, and pulled up a stool to sit down.
Power on.
It took several minutes for the computer to turn on.
Bored while waiting, Lao Jiang said, "A'an, there's something I don't know if I should tell you."
Wu An glanced at him: "Old Jiang, four cartons of cigarettes is a bit too much, I can't finish them."
Old Jiang stopped keeping him in suspense: "Two women came to the store today, talking about you going to the police station, saying you got into trouble."
"They made it sound so convincing, but when I asked them, neither of them had seen you go to the police station; they were just hearing about it."
"Guess who they heard it from?"
"who?"
"This is what we overheard Lin Bin and Chen Gui talking. The funniest thing is that Chen Gui even told them not to tell anyone."
Wu An suddenly realized.
Oh...right.
I almost forgot about Chen Gui. Come to think of it, it's impossible for him not to get involved in this mess.
Old Jiang continued, "When I heard that, I gave them a piece of my mind."
"When they say you're going to the police station, they mean you're going to receive an honor for your act of bravery."
“These old women kept asking me questions, so I just mentioned the honors you received.”
"Don't blame me for helping you become famous."
Wu An smiled and said, "Old Jiang, thanks."
Seeing that he had connected his phone and USB drive to the computer, Lao Jiang said, "I'm going to go to the front to organize things."
I came out of the inner room and closed the door behind me.
Wu An fiddled with it for several minutes before finally getting it working. After he came out, Lao Jiang had prepared cigarettes for him.
"Old Jiang, could you chop some braised vegetables and mix them for me?"
"Old Jiang, the new ship will arrive in a few days, and I'm planning to throw a feast."
"Can I get the cigarettes and alcohol from you?"
Old Jiang grinned from ear to ear: "Okay, okay, I definitely won't let you down."
Wu An fiddled with the USB drive and continued, "Also, once the new ship arrives, there will be more shipwrights, and it will take many days for them to come and go. The demand for food and drink on board will also be considerable."
"From now on, I'll settle my bill with you on January 1st. What do you think?"
After thinking it over, Lao Jiang slapped his thigh and said, "Ah An, you're... being too kind to my business."
"Speak, what do you need me to do?"
Wu An said, "Help me find a way to hide this USB drive in Chen Gui's house."
"Is it possible?"
Old Jiang's eyes darted around, and he said, "Yes."
"It was just something I did."
"Chen Gui asked me to deliver bottled water to his house these past two days, but I've been lazy and haven't gone yet."
Wu An thanked him and paid for the cigarettes.
Old Jiang saw him to the door: "A'an, don't worry, I'll definitely get this done for you."
Wu An smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
He was actually unsure about asking Lao Jiang for help. Firstly, since he had given the USB drive to Lao Jiang, it was no longer his concern. Secondly, he wanted to test whether Lao Jiang could be trusted.
Anyway, he still had a USB drive with the same videos on it.
He made two preparations.
If Lao Jiang helps him, that would be great; he'll be one of us from now on.
Old Jiang runs a small shop and is the village's intelligence center. He is well-informed, and nothing in the village can escape his notice.
If it's someone from his own village, it will be much easier for him to do things there.
If Lao Jiang didn't help, he could step in and not blame Lao Jiang. He could just find a way to recruit Lao Jiang into his own group later.
...
The next morning.
Ma Weiqun was still sleeping when he was forced to lie down on the bed.
The team leader was Huang Xuejun.
Ma Weiqun looked completely bewildered and asked, "Brother Huang, what's going on?"
"Arrest me?"
"Yesterday I..."
Huang Xuejun slapped him across the face and scolded him, "You should know why I arrested you."
"Get dressed."
"Let's go somewhere else to talk."
Ma Weiqun's struggles were futile. Once he was put on the sidelines and the evidence was laid out in front of him, he became obedient.
at the same time.
Wu An called Lin Hu, who answered and said he was fishing.
Wu An sympathized with him and suggested they meet to discuss repaying the money.
We arranged to meet in a while.
Wu An estimated the time and threw the USB drive at an intersection not far from Lin Hu's house.
Then hide at the alley entrance and pretend to bump into Lin Hu.
They exchanged a few words, but naturally couldn't reach an agreement.
They parted on bad terms.
Lin Hu continued walking around the house. The gold USB drive was very conspicuous on the ground. Lin Hu picked it up and asked, "A'an, is this yours?"
Wu An shook his head: "No."
"This USB drive looks pretty good."
Lin Hu said "Oh" and stuffed it into his pocket.
Wu An sneered inwardly.
Go home and watch it carefully; I guarantee it will get your blood pumping.
Call Aqing and ask if she has eaten well. Tell her to come and keep an eye on things once she has finished eating.
He was starving after wandering around like that so early in the morning, so he hurried home for a meal.
Mei Yueqin was quite curious as to why he hadn't gone out to sea yet, seeing him arrive at this hour.
Wu An made up a random excuse to brush it off.
...
On the other side.
When Lin Hu returned home, he saw that his wife, Wen Feilu, was still asleep, covered with a thin blanket. Her graceful figure made him feel a burning desire.
Go take a shower quickly.
After he finished showering, Wenfei Lu was already up and asked him how his catch was.
He stammered.
Wen Feilu looked disgusted: "You're really useless."
Lin Hu was extremely depressed.
Wu An was pressing him for repayment of a debt, and when he got home, his wife complained about him. Nothing good happened first thing in the morning.
That's not right either.
I also found a brand new USB drive.
He had just taken a shower and wasn't sleepy at all. He turned on the computer and inserted the USB drive.
Click to open.
The USB drive has a fairly large capacity.
I thought to myself that this USB drive must be expensive, but I found that there were only two folders inside.
One of the folders is named Chen Gui.
"Looks like it belongs to Uncle Gui, so I won't return it, hehe." Lin Hu muttered to himself, and opened another folder named "Private".
It contains a video.
"Could it be that Uncle Gui filmed some random nonsense?" Lin Hu muttered, his expression turning lewd.
Mouse movement.
Click.
Play.
A sudden panting sound rang out, and Lin Hu quickly turned off the sound. He swallowed hard and stared at the video. As he watched, he felt that the "female lead" in the video looked somewhat familiar.
But he didn't think much of it, and was still muttering to himself, "Chen Gui is so old, but he's still playing around." But when the male and female protagonists in the video changed their positions, he suddenly widened his eyes.
God!
