The old tailor was stripped and tied to a telephone pole with an iron chain. Under the crowd, his old face was flushed with shame, and he was already speechless. He just hugged his hands together, begging like a begging. Rao, but "Impressionists" don't eat this set, he is fiddling with the combination lock seriously.
"Impressionist" said: "This is a combination lock, six people. If you have the ability, try to open it yourself, or if you pay the money, we will open it for you..." Then he looked around everyone, "No one is allowed to give him food or drink. Otherwise locked with this old thing, do you hear it."
Everyone nodded.
"Impressionists" sniffed hard and took out a list of creditors from his pocket, "Who is the other B named XX?"
The crowd pointed to a man, "He!"
The man was so scared that he fled back to his home, "Impressionists" sneered: "Dare to run?" Then he took his little brother straight to the man's house, passing by the group of residents, he said to a grinning face: "You guys Poor ghosts owe so many debts, I can simply move to this shabby alley, and I am willing to run over to collect debts every day."
Then, he kicked the house of the No. 2 creditor, and the younger brother rushed in, and there was a rough movement.
A part of the onlookers rushed over and continued to watch the return show.
Sister Zhang's mouth was dry from eating melon seeds, and she was going back to make some chrysanthemum tea to drink. She simmered some chrysanthemums in the park in September, and it is just right to drink it now.
When she turned her head back, she saw a face tightly wrapped in bandages in the attic of Kaowei's house. The person was very vigilant and retracted as soon as she was seen.
Dasao Zhang was taken aback for a moment, and went home suspiciously.
Kovi didn't get off work until late at night. When he walked to the alley, he was startled. He saw a naked man sitting on the ground with an iron chain around his neck, like some kind of weird performance art. He was playing with his head down. what.
"Who!?" Kovi exclaimed.
The old tailor looked up. He could hardly hold it after he hadn't eaten or drink for a day, and pointed to his chapped lips: "Water..."
"Old tailor? Who tied you here, is it a debt collector? They are too much, they collect debts, bully people every time, and those who owe debts are inferior to others?"
Kaowei gritted her teeth, thinking that she was dragged by a bunch of debt collectors not long ago and said she was going to be a chicken. Kaowei had no choice but to take out a few pieces of gold jewelry that Wang Xi gave her. No matter how poor she was, she couldn't bear it. When they were thrown away, in order to save their lives, they had to pay back a little interest to avoid a miserable end.
Once a person is poor, there are many things that can't be taken care of, and they can only struggle day by day.
"water."
A woman's face was exposed in the window next to him, and he said coldly: "Mo Ge said, no one can give him food or drink, otherwise he will be tied up with him, Xiaowei, don't make trouble."
Kovi shook her head helplessly, and walked towards her own house.
The bandage man cooks at home again. Although he uses the ingredients of Kaowei's family, he also has to work hard to cook, and his craftsmanship is quite good. Kaowei is embarrassed to care about the money he needs for the ingredients.
Kovi came to the attic. The bandage man was writing and drawing on a piece of paper. When she saw her coming up, he immediately put the paper away.
"You don't have to cook so many dishes, you can't eat it at all... By the way, I bought you something. I think your face seems to be injured. This oil is good for burns." She took a bottle The ointment was placed in front of the bandage man.
The bandage man picked it up and looked at it, and said nothing.
"You don't have to go to work every day, just stay at home? Did you see the old tailor being bullied today? Those people are debt collectors and you hate to die. Most of the people here are in debt, not that they want to owe them and need them urgently. When I was able to borrow money, I could only borrow usury. At first I could only repay a little interest every month. Gradually, it became an unrepayable debt... By the way, these money-lending underworlds belonged to Wang Xi. The club, they are still inquiring about Wang Xi's whereabouts, I guess he is still alive!"
"Definitely not dead," said the bandage man.
"Really?" Covey was very happy.
"If his body is found, the police will definitely come to you in order to confirm the body. If the police have not come, it will prove that he is not dead, or the body has not been found."
Kovi’s joy subsided again, and he complained: "Why say such horrible things seriously? I know he is not dead. He must be hiding. He can't come to me now because the people on the road let him go. Then, as long as you report him, you will be rewarded with hundreds of thousands of bounty. The neighbors around me are staring at me, wanting to make this money."
The bandage man looked out the window, and Kovi looked there. From this angle, he could see the old tailor tied to the telephone pole. After playing with the code lock for a day, his eyes were almost blind, and his mouth was dry. He was lying next to the gutter to drink the dirty water inside.
"A person can do nothing to survive," said the bandage man.
Kaowei frowned, "I don't like to listen to such high-minded words. What did you do in the past? You must not be a poor man like me! I guess you must be rich and powerful. You have offended someone to become what you are now! "
The bandage man rolled his eyes to look at her, and said coldly: "I can't tell you."
Kovi became even more angry, "Cut, as if I want to know more, I'm leaving, don't come down tonight!"
There was a knock on the door outside, Corvette opened the door, Sister Zhang's smiling face stretched out, Sister Zhang glanced towards the sky, and said: "Hey, who are you talking to, are you upstairs? "
"It's a tenant."
"Tenant?" Aunt Zhang looked suspicious, then lowered her voice and asked tentatively: "Wang Xi is back, right?"
"No, it's really a tenant."
"Then let me take a look at what it looks like."
"People are asleep."
"Nonsense, I heard you talking just now."
Dasao Zhang insisted on going upstairs, but Kao Wei couldn’t stop her. Dasao Zhang poked her head into the attic and saw someone sitting cross-legged in the dark with her face facing the wall. She said, "Hello, I live next door, you are What are you doing? Why don't you speak, turn around and have a look, why are you so shy?" As he said, he patted the floor with his hands, as if he was teasing a cat hidden under the bed.
That "cat" didn't give any face, Zhang Dasao "slammed" downstairs, saw Kao Wei, and smiled back, "The young couple haven't seen each other for a long time, so I will retell the past tonight so I won't bother."
"He is not Wang Xi, he is really a tenant."
"Keep it from others and hide it from me, don't worry, I won't poke it out." Zhang Dasao raised her eyebrows.
At this time, there was a sound of bang dong dong coming downstairs from behind. Zhang Dasao looked back in surprise, and saw the bandage man walk down. He coldly said: "You are testing my identity, so that you can get a reward from someone in the underworld. ."
"Why do you think people are so bad, neighbors, neighbors, it is not normal for me to come here."
"I tell you clearly, I am not Wang Xi, you want to expose it casually. I am not afraid when the underworld comes, but if they come, you should be afraid of me. I will tidy you up. Do you dare to call the police?"
Sister Zhang's face was blue and red, and she said to Corvette, "I'm still making water on the stove, so I hurried back."
When she walked out of Kaowei's house, she snorted towards the door. It is naturally unpleasant to be threatened by someone pointing her nose. She said to herself: "Huh, scare me? This guy must be Wang Xi!"
