Chapter 1732 Snakes, Insects, Rats and Ants
Under the darkness of night, the street lights in Sijiucheng are like dim orange lights, stubbornly sticking to their posts, trying to drive away all the darkness.
However, there are always corners that light cannot reach.
Yang Xiaotao is one of the people in the dark night. He stands in a secret corner, holding a pack of beef jerky in his hand and putting them in his mouth one by one.
And his eyes were always staring at the two people not far away.
At the same time, Xiaowei's voice also sounded in my heart.
At the entrance of the dark alley, two figures were shaken by the car lights. They also felt that something was wrong, so they walked deeper into the alley.
Soon we came to a secret corner and stood behind the bulletin board, communicating in a low voice.
"Why is it you this time?"
There was a hint of surprise in Li Nan's voice, and the distrust on his face could be seen even in the dark.
"Isn't this a welfare gift to you by the way? We can do it together!"
Across from him, a young man with a calm face could not hide the scar on his cheek, which opened from the bridge of his nose in the dark night. The ferocious look at the corner of his mouth made him open his mouth like a centipede trying to swallow everything when he spoke.
The young man spoke, but Li Nan immediately fell silent.
"Okay, leave the things in the same place. You can go and take them later. This month is over!"
"If you have anything to do, tell me quickly. We still don't get to be together much. OK! ”
The young man urged, and Li Nan nodded.
"What I want to talk about is about the machinery factory."
When Li Nan said this, the young man also corrected his attitude and became serious.
Although the incident at the machinery factory had little impact on the workers, it created a power game among the top management.
For them, it was like an earthquake. The house next door collapsed, and they had to be careful in this house.
But you can't attract the other person's attention.
“According to the information I heard, the reason for the big commotion in the machinery factory this time is entirely due to the people in the supervision team trying to sabotage it...”
Li Nan reported the situation in a low voice, The young man on the side nodded and listened, interjecting to ask what happened, to make sure the information was accurate and would not affect their next actions.
"In other words, this is a false alarm?"
Li Nan nodded, "Probably so."
"However, after this incident, the factory will definitely strengthen its management. It is best to calm down during this period."
The young man listened silently, wondering what was going on in his mind.
After a long time, he said, "I will tell Brother Hu about this. Please wait for notification on how to do it specifically!"
Li Nan opened his mouth, but did not speak.
The brother Hu mentioned by the other party is the youth's superior and is responsible for their affairs. On weekdays, he will be assigned to this person to communicate things, and he is also responsible for distributing benefits.
But he really didn’t know who Brother Hu was, and he had never seen him.
As for the person above, let alone him, even the young man in front of him may not be able to see him.
Of course, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better. Once something happens, they can avoid protecting the radish belt from being unearthed.
The young man didn't want to say more, and there was nothing Li Nan could do.
After getting on the boat, it was impossible to get off, and we had to listen to others, otherwise we would just wait to fall into the water.
"Okay, you go back quickly, I'm leaving first!"
The young man already understood the situation, urged him, and walked out of the alley.
Li Nan watched the other party walk away, then sighed, looked up at the dark sky, then took a deep breath, sang a ditty in his mouth, and walked slowly out of the alley.
In the darkness, Yang Xiaotao finished eating a pack of beef jerky and was now drinking mineral water in his hand.
As for the wine I drank, I am mostly awake now!
"Brother Tiger?"
"Who is this!"
Yang Xiaotao heard the conversation between the two clearly through Xiaowei.
Then I became more certain that Li Nan’s matter was not simple.
Especially when hearing what the young man said about Brother Tiger and welfare, Yang Xiaotao felt that there was a lot involved behind it.
However, he didn't know exactly what these people were doing, even just having a simple conversation.
But it must have something to do with the machinery factory.
Even if Wang Zhuo's noise can affect them, it means that the other party is targeting the machinery factory.
Enemy?
Saboteurs?
Or...
Yang Xiaotao shook his head gently again.
Enemies, not so much!
Based on his understanding of Li Nan, this guy has a clean background and is a member of the working class, so there is no need to be an enemy.
But it’s hard to say about the last two.
After all, what the other party is doing now will definitely hurt the interests of the machinery factory.
Even if he is not an enemy, he is still a person corrupted by the enemy!
Even the opposite person!
After all, the machinery factory repeatedly sabotaged the other party's plans. It would be an exaggeration to say that it was a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh.
And the other party’s specialty is internal corruption, isn’t it?
Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath. He had been brothers for many years and he really didn't want to see this result.
Especially now!
However, he had no choice.
At this critical moment, you can’t help yourself.
It may be cruel to say that a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist, but it is very realistic.
There are many people behind him, including family and friends.
But who is behind it?
Yang Xiaotao could imagine how Ran Qiuye and the child would be treated if he was laid down again.
So, in order not to be beaten down, I can only give up that little bit of mercy.
Leave no chance.
Not giving others a handle will hurt more people's opportunities.
Moreover, we are all adults, so everything we do must be done with our brains.
You know what the consequences will be.
Gudong
After drinking a bottle of water, Yang Xiaotao had already seen the young man coming out.
It was difficult to see his face clearly in the darkness, but Yang Xiaotao was not in a hurry, Xiaowei was flying above his head.
At this time of year, it’s not surprising to see a bug.
Sure enough, when the young man passed by the street light, even if he deliberately lowered his head to hide his face, Xiaowei still saw him.
At this moment, a sentence suddenly popped up in Yang Xiaotao’s mind!
“Comrade, do you want a ticket?”
The image of a young man appeared in his mind, bringing back memories of that year. That year, he had just traveled through time and looked at this new era.
That year, he came out of the hospital with money awarded by the system, but suffered from no tickets.
That year, a young man stopped him at the corner and asked him, comrade, do you want a ticket?
That year, he knew it was illegal, but still chose to trade with him in order to survive.
That young man is the young man in front of him.
Shen Lin!
Later, with the help of the system, Yang Xiaotao's fitter skills gradually improved, and the material rewards given by the system were enough to survive, so he gradually lost contact.
Later, when Yang Xiaotao saw Shen Lin, he seemed to be coming out of the military courtyard. At that time, he was chased by a group of young people and hid in the military courtyard.
However, Shen Lin had no scars on his face at that time.
Yang Xiaotao didn't know what the other person had gone through, but he knew that this Shen Lin was not a simple person.
After all, no one who could exchange food stamps back then was a good person!
And this is very consistent with what he is doing now.
Watching the young man walking away, Yang Xiaotao asked Xiaowei to follow him to find out the situation.
Yang Xiaotao walked to the other end. With his extraordinary eyesight, Yang Xiaotao followed Li Nan from a distance.
As midnight approached, there were no pedestrians on the streets connecting the alley entrances, except for the occasional patrol officer passing by.
Yang Xiaotao followed selectively until Li Nan stopped under a big poplar tree.
Looking back to look around, Li Nan leaned down and dug out a box from under the tree trunk after finding no one there.
The whole process was accurate and fast. Then, after seeing that no one was around, he quickly opened the box, took out the contents, then put the box back and buried it with soil.
Li Nan clapped his hands, and then took out the contents of the box from his pocket. Yang Xiaotao couldn't see clearly, but the items one after another should be money and industrial coupons.
Seeing Li Nan walking slowly with his hands behind his back, it was obvious that he was satisfied with the amount.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao's eyes were filled with disappointment, and a cold light shot out.
He couldn't understand why the young people who used to chant slogans and devote themselves to the revolution became like this?
Back then, we shouted about defending the fruits of the revolution, about hardship and simplicity, and about serving the people.
Now, the original intention and mission have long been forgotten.
But he himself became the person shouting for beating in the slogan!
Perhaps, as life becomes richer, people’s hearts will change!
The desire is hard to satisfy, and the human heart is not enough.
He knew Li Nan's family situation well. As a fifth-level fitter, he was able to support his family, even better than ordinary people.
But that’s it, still greedy for money!
Not only that, colluding with others is a complete betrayal of the interests of the machinery factory!
How come he hadn’t discovered such a person before?
Yang Xiaotao clenched his hands tightly, and the crunching sound kept coming.
Such a person is not worthy of being a brother!
Yang Xiaotao followed Li Nan for a while, and the direction seemed to be heading home.
Yang Xiaotao immediately turned around, came to the poplar tree, glanced at the scene, then distanced himself and hid in the darkness.
He wanted to see if he would wait for others to come.
Time passed by, and Yang Xiaotao stood in the corner, like a sculpture, watching quietly.
Li Nan's incident gave him a big shock.
Recalling past scenes in my mind became the driving force for anger.
The eyesight also becomes clearer!
Huhu...
Xiaowei spun around in the air and then landed on Yang Xiaotao's shoulder.
"Master, the man returned to a yard and then went into the house to sleep!"
Xiaowei described the situation in the yard, and Yang Xiaotao understood that the other person should have returned to the military hospital.
"Remember the place?"
"Remember it!"
"Do you want the clone to stay?"
Xiaowei suggested, but Yang Xiaotao shook his head.
The last time the clone disappeared, Xiaowei had determined that it was destroyed.
The specific process is unclear, but the energy Xiaowei lost was real.
It hasn't been long now, Xiao Wei's body has not fully recovered, and Yang Xiaotao is not in a hurry.
“Don’t worry, the monk can’t run away from the temple!”
Xiaowei whizzed twice, and then fell to the big poplar tree in the distance.
More than an hour later, there was already a faint white edge on the horizon.
Yang Xiaotao breathed gently, the cold breath entering his heart, and then moved his body to prepare to leave.
However, just when Yang Xiaotao was about to greet Xiaowei home, he suddenly heard Xiaowei's voice.
Whoosh!
The distance was too far, Xiaowei could only make a sound, but it attracted Yang Xiaotao's attention.
The body is close to the corner, disappearing.
Then, he looked at the street not far away, which was the road Li Nan left.
A figure is doing chest-expanding exercises with both arms in front of her body, like someone who got up early to exercise.
But when this man was walking, his eyes were looking around.
Soon the visitor moved his body and came to the big poplar tree, but he did not rush to do it. Instead, he moved his body around the big tree.
After confirming that no one was around, he quickly came to the place where the box was buried, dug out the wooden box in twos and threes, patted it twice and put it in his arms.
Then he stepped on the ground twice, looked around again, then turned around and walked back.
Yang Xiaotao came out from the corner.
This man also gave him a sense of familiarity, like a worker in a machinery factory.
But who it is, I really can’t remember for a while.
However, since the person has been found, there is no reason to let him go.
Xiaowei has already followed, and the big trees along the way have become her best cover.
Yang Xiaotao turned back to the car, started the car and walked along the road this way.
In less than half an hour, Yang Xiaotao got Xiaowei’s tip.
The other party entered a large courtyard and entered the house.
Yang Xiaotao just asked Xiaowei to remember the house number and had no intention of getting out of the car to check.
The car left without stopping and passed by the entrance of the courtyard.
After the car left, a pair of eyes looked at the jeep in the yard next to the courtyard. After finding nothing unusual, they got off the wall and walked into the yard.
