Chapter 20: Zhai Da handsome guy
Lu Benqing smacked the cigarette in his hand, smoking the cigarette butt along with the sponge, looking sideways at the newcomers.
Three Japanese.
Several local guides or translators were spinning around, their mouths full of bird language.
He couldn't understand, but his brain automatically translated it into "Officer! It's right inside~"
Lu Benqing was very familiar with the dealer here, or rather, he had lost a lot of money here. Today, he was also greeted and told that several foreigners were coming.
The meaning of telling them in advance was very clear. This was to set up a trap to slaughter fat sheep. If the foreigners were interested in other card tables, don't refuse, everyone slaughter together.
Lu Benqing thought it was foreign devils, didn't expect it to be little days...
Looking at that bowing and scraping appearance, it really made people unhappy...
However, he was just a gambler, a gambler who had lost his savings, borrowed from relatives, and had to squeeze blood bags from his daughter, so he had no national hatred, just thinking about whether he could win a little from the little Japanese.
As for slaughtering little Japanese here, whether they had slaughtered him before, to be honest, gamblers wouldn't think about this question.
They didn't lose to the dealer, but to the addiction in their hearts and the fantasy of winning back.
"Old Lu, in this broken place, are there foreigners coming to play?"
Lu Benqing stepped on the cigarette butt: "Unfamiliar with the place, hands itchy and brought here? People can eat shit when they are hungry."
The person who asked shrank his neck, thinking that was you, we are not that cruel...
Several Japanese were brought into the room, obviously having a separate game. Lu Benqing, a long-term gambler who brought a few hundred yuan, was just an atmosphere group in this field, to put it bluntly.
Same principle as the girls in the nightclub.
"Don't care about others, deal the cards, deal the cards! My luck is very strong today!"
This smoky place returned to its daily scene.
A group of people inside were like lost, unable to get out.
Until the light of the righteous path, holding the stick of the righteous path, broke in.
"Don't move! Hold your head with both hands and squat down!"
"Squat down, squat down!"
The police quickly controlled the situation. A few who wanted to run were directly knocked down with a kick.
The three Japanese were so scared they almost leaked, their mouths full of Japanese, and were directly pressed to the ground.
In fact, Zhai Da still underestimated the governance of the scattered province in 2008.
Admittedly, it's not 2024 now, he always felt that the atmosphere was not that good yet.
But if there was no cause in 2008, where would the fruit of 2024 come from?
At least in the scattered, some things were already being governed seriously.

Zhai Da waited for another ten minutes and saw a series of people being escorted out.
He took out his knock-off phone and took a blurry photo from a distance to keep as a record. All the tasks for today were completed.
The reason he wanted to see the results with his own eyes was to guard against the "tipping off" and "collusion between black and white" in TV dramas. If it was calm here tonight, or if a bunch of police came but didn't catch anyone, he would never let Wu Yue go to the police station to collect the reward.
Wu Yue's life is also a life.
Lu Wei also identified her father Lu Benqing from it, and didn't know what she was thinking in her big eyes that lacked emotion.
Not until everything was calm and the street returned to silence did Zhai Da and Lu Wei walk out of the darkness.
Zhai Da clapped his hands: "Mission accomplished, next is waiting for the reward. I will handle it myself, I will find a way to give you your share later."
Lu Wei still insisted on her decision, shook her head and said: "I don't want money, give it all to you."
"No, you have to want it."
Lu Wei didn't share the money, he wasn't at ease.
After all, he sent someone's dad in.
If you eat Tang Monk meat, it's best to eat at the same table as Sun Monkey.
The tall, thin girl stopped talking, but didn't seem to intend to accept it honestly.
Zhai Da looked left and right. There wasn't a car in this bird place for ten minutes. If he wanted to take a taxi, he had to walk a distance first, so he took Lu Wei to the side gate of Three Mao.
The two were one in front and one behind, one fast and one slow.
Zhai Da was silently pondering the next things, while Lu Wei was observing the shadow under her feet.
Rows of street lamps cast light that was not wide, and the shadow under her body was constantly chased by footsteps, and then abandoned by footsteps.
Street lamps are like this, they can't dispel the night, they only prop up the interlacing of light and shadow, making people have the illusion of not being in the night.
It's just that there are night roads that are connected and stretched forever in this world, but there are no people who can walk the same road forever. At a certain intersection, Zhai Da stood still.
Waiting for the taxi to appear, to take away Lu Wei beside him.
The time was approaching eleven o'clock, it was obviously unreasonable to let the other party walk back.
Sending her off was impossible, Ms. Yu was also waiting at home.
Lu Wei looked at Zhai Da looking around, seemingly anxiously looking for a taxi, and suddenly said: "How about walking two more intersections."
Zhai Da shook his head: "Let's do it here, there are many cars."
Lu Wei stopped talking.
She suddenly realized that after tonight, some kind of strong connection with Zhai Da seemed to end here.
Just like two years ago...
And then? Share money? Say hello when meeting on the road?
Lu Wei's slender hand was behind her back, stroking that Snickers bar. In one night, it was already covered with residual temperature...
Slightly melted.
"Screech~"
A taxi stopped in front of the two.
However, Zhai Da didn't let Lu Wei get in the car directly, but tried to bargain through the passenger window.
Taking a taxi in the middle of the night in a small place is a quote, not a meter. In addition, Lu Wei going back alone, he had to look at the driver's face.
He had to find those middle-aged men with horizontal flesh and serious faces.
Guaranteed to be a henpecked husband + a man who loves cats and has children. If he is bald, he can continue to add points, which will be safer.
In the end, the price was 20. After all, Zhai Da didn't have Ms. Yu's level and wasn't familiar enough with the road conditions. He paid the fare in advance, took a photo of the license plate, and greeted Lu Wei to get in the car quickly. He was in a hurry to go home.
Lu Wei was silent for a moment, lowered her head and said: "Thank you, I will send the fare to you next time."
Zhai Da waved his hand: "No need."
Lu Wei sat in the back row, closed the car door, and then began to daze.
The attempt to establish a little connection seemed to have failed...
Twice.
Until her car window was knocked.
Lowering the car window, Zhai Da handed over an old phone, which was still wrapped with a charging cable.
"Almost forgot this, I have already saved my number in it, the phone card is zero monthly rent, so the phone bill will be more expensive, you can find time to change it at the business hall."
Lu Wei blankly took the Nokia 3310.
Zhai Da made a gesture of calling and said: "Arrived home safely, remember to send me a message to report, if there is anything in the future, just contact by phone."
At the end, he added: "Remember to eat well, holding you today felt bony!"
After speaking, without waiting for Lu Wei to reply, Zhai Da patted the car door and let the driver start.
The taxi had long been impatient and started quickly, and the teenager also ran in the opposite direction.
Any later, Ms. Yu would be furious!
Lu Wei sat in the car, holding the Snickers bar in one hand and the Nokia in the other.
Tentatively opened the phone, opened the address book...
She hadn't never used a phone, just because of some reasons... she didn't use it anymore.
In the address book, there was only one contact.
The saved name was:
Zhai Big Handsome Guy.
"Zhai Da... Zhai Big Handsome Guy.."
The exquisite corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up into a light arc.
This was probably the first time she was amused by someone's humor. For a time, the taxi was full of spring breeze.
The driver looked in the rearview mirror and thought, what a beautiful girl...
Unfortunately, someone couldn't see this face.
————
Zhai Da returned home with an excited mood. Ms. Yu was already applying cucumber to her face, it was inconvenient to speak, so she didn't blame him too much for coming back late.
After taking a shower and lying back on the bed, Zhai Da's phone rang.
A text message, the sender was: "Malnutrition".
"I'm home."
"Received, rest early."
"Good night, Da Handsome Guy."
"Good night, little girl with good eyes." ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
