Inside the Coast Guard.
After Su Tianyu and Hou Guoyu exchanged a few brief words, they went to the warehouse together to prepare to dig up the body.
…
About 400 kilometers away from Longcheng, there is a small town called Dasir, which is built on the mountain. It has beautiful scenery and is remote, so it has not been affected by the war in the Casaro area.
On the south mountain of the town, in a slightly dilapidated mountain house, a bald middle-aged man was sitting on a fabric sofa, smoking a cigarette.
The bald middle-aged man looked to be about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old, with a round face, a thin body, a thick mustache, and an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were piercing, bright and deep.
The living room was filled with smoke, and the bald man said helplessly: "Someone who went to Longcheng got into trouble. I have to pay for the resettlement, and I have to find a way to rescue them later. I beg you, can you give me some more money, please?"
Next to the tea table in the room, there was a woman about the same age as the bald man. She was a bit stout and had an ordinary look. But if you look closely, there is a heroic spirit between her eyebrows, and the more you look at her, the more attractive she becomes.
"Ahua, I'm talking to you, please say something back!" The bald man raised his head, his eyes full of pleading.
"Stop your bullshit!" The woman spoke in a traditional Chinese way: "It costs money to buy things, to eat, drink, defecate and urinate, and even their cigarettes have to be paid for by us! What are we doing this for? To do charity?! Where's your boss? Why doesn't your boss take the money?!"
The bald man put out his cigarette, stood up and bowed with both hands, saying, "Grandma! They follow us, we spend money to support them, they are our own people. It's not that the higher-ups didn't give us money, it's just that we spent too much, and I can't take any more. Remember, I want to do big things, can you please stop making me argue with you about money every day?! Can't we expand our horizons a little? I promise you, in the future you will... just because you have too much money!"
Ah Hua was so angry that she picked up the plastic water cup on the table and threw it at him angrily: "What the hell are you doing! I can't even do it anymore, and you still want to do something big? I'll just kill you...!"
“Bang!”
The bald man dodged and the cup fell on the sofa, but he didn't get angry. He still said shamelessly: "Ahua, you have to understand me..."
"I understand you!" Ah Hua stood up, put his hands on his hips and cursed: "Let me ask you, how many years have we been out? I sold the three shops left by my father, the house, and I didn't care about my own children. I just messed around out there. But now, not only have we not saved any assets, but we have to put money into it every day. If we keep going like this, when will it end? Where is the big business you talked about? Where is the ambition? Only those fools will believe what you say."
The bald man looked at the other person without interrupting.
"Not only do I have to pay money, but I also have to risk my life with you guys. Have you ever thought about it? If we die out there one day, what will happen to the children? How will they live? You bastard, you just brag outside every day and you don't consider the actual situation at all." Ah Hua said with tears in his eyes.
The bald man slowly walked over and put his arm around her shoulders: "Trust me, we will get through this."
"I believe in you, but life doesn't believe in you! Money doesn't believe in you! Go away, don't touch me." Ah Hua wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, reached out and pushed the bald man away.
The couple sat in silence for a long time. The bald man continued to smile and said, "This time I really...!"
Ah Hua didn't say anything else. He turned around and walked to the cabinet, took out a wad of cash, threw it on the table and yelled, "Take the money and get out! I don't want to see you for another minute."
“Your investment will pay off…”
"You'd better die outside right now. I'm going to find a rich old man with my child." Ah Hua sat on the chair with a tired heart, pointed at the door and said, "Get lost right now!"
The bald man didn't feel ashamed, he suddenly leaned forward and gave Ah Hua a kiss: "You are the one who understands me the best!"
After saying that, the bald man took the money and ran away.
…
The bald man's name is Fei Pingsheng. He has a group of brothers under him, including Brother Shui who kidnapped Lao Pang before, as well as Zhang Chao and others.
After leaving home, Bald Old Fei rode his electric bike down the mountain. After about half an hour, he arrived at a very ordinary house.
After getting off the car, Lao Fei staggered into the main room and met Zhang Chao's elder brother A Shui and others.
Inside the room, seven or eight people were sitting around a broken table, all with ugly looks on their faces.
Lao Fei glanced at everyone's expressions and felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. He immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
"You ask him." A sturdy man pouted at Brother Shui and replied with a bad look on his face.
"What's wrong, A Shui?" Lao Fei pulled a chair and sat down.
Ah Shui sighed, frowned and narrated: "I suggested looking for Zhang Chao's friend Su Tiannan, but they disagreed."
"I don't agree with that!" The sturdy man immediately retorted: "Do you know Su Tiannan? Do you know that this man's cousin is from the Marine Police? He is responsible for solving the Tianlan shooting case! Wake up, Zhang Chao is in trouble, and we can't talk to Su Tiannan at all. If you go to him now, it's like walking into a trap!"
"It's true that Zhang Chao got into trouble, but someone from the Su Tiannan Association was also arrested. And I heard that the person who was arrested was his cousin. They must want to rescue him now. We can talk to them and share the news with them." Ah Shui raised his eyebrows and said, "Otherwise, with our current capabilities, it will be difficult to save Zhang Chao..."
"Come on!" The sturdy man waved his hand. "Su Tiannan's cousin is from the Marine Police Department. Didn't you understand what I said? We are suspects in the Tianlan shooting case. We also kidnapped Lao Pang. If you dare to show up, they will definitely hold you down. If things go wrong, they will have to use us to exchange for Su Tiannan's cousin with the other side."
"Yes, what Lao Tong said makes sense. We are suspects. If we rashly return to Longcheng to contact Su Tiannan, something bad will definitely happen."
"Yes, Zhang Chao is gone, and no one can talk to Su Tiannan. There is no reason for them to help us."
“…!”
Many people in the room echoed the strong man's words.
"If you don't find Su Tiannan, how can we save Zhang Chao?! Are you afraid of death when you come out to do this business?" A Shui slammed the table and stood up.
"If you are not afraid of death, why don't you go in and find him? We won't go!" the sturdy man replied with a gloomy face.
"Okay!" After Fei Pingsheng had heard the general situation, he slowly took out some cash from his pocket, threw it on the table and said, "Give some resettlement allowance to the family of the deceased brother, and use the rest of the money for daily expenses."
"What about Zhang Chao...?" Ah Shui wanted to speak.
"I'll take care of his affairs. You don't have to worry about it." Fei Pingsheng yawned, looked down at his watch and replied, "Okay, you can go away and take care of your own people."
…
Inside the warehouse of Longcheng Tianhong Port.
The burial site under the freezer was dug up, and the pungent smell of blood hit us. Under the pit, plastic bags were filled with body parts and arms, and the scene was horrific.
The police officers stared at the pit in stunned silence. After a long silence, they all took off their hats and saluted.
This is a chaotic era, and in some areas human lives are worthless.
But there is also warmth in this era, the warmth that a human being should have.
