Chapter 287 Begins
In the evening, the grain store.
Ten minutes have passed since get off work. Chu Heng stood expressionlessly at the door smoking a cigarette, quietly waiting for the man who lent him his bicycle to deliver it.
Facts have proved that the mouth of the fishing guy is even less reliable than Sister Yao’s mouth!
If I borrow that stupid bicycle again, I will be a dog!
Chu Heng stamped his feet vigorously, stamped out the cigarette butts, and looked into the distance with gritted teeth.
More than ten minutes later, the fishing friend finally appeared.
His harvest today is not small. There are many catches tied to the handlebars, beams, and seats.
Especially the huge carp tied to the car seat. Judging from its size alone, it has surpassed Chu Heng's peak.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, when I was about to come back, I caught a big fish and it took me half an hour of walking to pull it out.” The fishing friend rode up to him with an apologetic look on his face. The smell of fish is particularly overwhelming.
"It's okay, it's okay. I was just busy and forgot." Chu Heng walked forward with a fake smile and looked at the fish in the car. When his eyes passed by the big carp, his smile became even more fake.
I was offended!
The fishing friend also knew that he was trustworthy and not very particular, so after setting up the car, he took out the big carp weighing more than ten kilograms from the back seat and handed it to him with some reluctance. The pretty boy with a fake smile said: "Take this, thank you for lending it to me. Secondly, I’ll give you a car, so don’t dislike it.”
“This… is so bad.” Chu Heng said politely, but he didn’t hesitate in his hand, and he quickly took it. The smile on the face of this huge carp became much more sincere at this moment.
He suddenly felt that the man in front of him was someone he could get along with.
"What's wrong with this? Without you lending me the car, I wouldn't be able to catch so many fish. Let me tell you, this Ming Tombs is really a good place. Not only are the fish big in size, but they are also very easy to catch. I It took me only half a day to catch fish while traveling back and forth, but I only managed to get this much. If I were to sell it to the recycling department, it would cost several days. "It's a dollar."
The fisherman unloaded the fish from the car with a smile on his face, carried the straw rope to his body, waved his hand and said, "I have to go to the recycling department quickly. I'll see you later." "
"Hey, please slow down." Chu Heng waved his hands enthusiastically, feeling that this man was even more cute.
After watching his fishing friends leave, he happily hung the big white carp on the car, wiped himself off and locked the shop, then boarded the dirty bicycle and returned home.
On the way, he also met an acquaintance, a buddy from a nearby movie theater. Seeing such a big fish tied to his car, he couldn't help but gasped: "Hey, Director Chu, you are really capable. You are fishing again." Here comes a big one. Is this one heavier than the one last time? ”
"Good luck, good luck." Chu Heng smiled reservedly. He didn't admit that he caught it, but he didn't deny it either. He just accepted the honor shamelessly.
he...tui!
Not long after, he returned to the courtyard and quickly packed up the fish after entering the house.
After hanging up the scales and removing the internal organs, he divided the fish into three parts. He kept the head and gave the tail to the Li family next door. A few days ago, Aunt Li gave him half a bowl of oil residue. You have to give a gift in return, right?
As for the middle part, he planned to give it to the second room.
After coming out of Li's house amidst Aunt Li's thanks, Chu Heng carried a piece of fish belly to the deaf old lady in the backyard.
Qin Jingru was busy making dinner outside the house at this time. When she saw him suddenly arriving, the girl was filled with joy and hurriedly ran towards her beloved man: "Brother, why are you here?"
“I’ll give you some fish.” Chu Heng smiled and handed over the small half carp in his hand: “ You should be busy, I have to go back to cook."
Qin Jingru took the things, winked at him, and whispered: "Brother, the old lady is not at home, she went to Shazhu's place, let me go. Go and call her after you finish cooking."
Chu Heng raised his eyebrows and walked towards the house with a smile on his face.
"I almost forgot, I brought you some ice cream, hurry up and eat it while it's hot."
...
At midnight, everything is silent.
"Tu tu tu tu tu!"
A Cadillac sedan produced in the 1940s moved quickly through the dark streets like a ghost, and finally stopped near the courtyard where Chu Heng was. an alleyway. "Crunch!"
When the car stopped, Lou Xiao'e, with tears in her eyes, opened the door and walked out. She wiped her eyes hard, and said to the driver with a sad look on her face: "Old Zhang, just do it. Just wait here, I... will be back in about two hours."
"Understood, miss." The driver, who was over fifty years old, nodded lightly, with no emotion on his face. fluctuation.
"Thank you for your hard work." Lou Xiao'e sighed and walked towards the courtyard not far away.
Originally, she should have been on the way to Jinmen with her parents now, but she really couldn't let go of that stupid man who didn't know anything, so she begged her father to let her come over to see him. Silly Zhu, completely let go of the worries in his heart.
Not long after, Lou Xiao'e walked into the courtyard, then walked straight to the door of Shazhu's house in the middle courtyard, and knocked gently on the door.
Si Zhu had already fallen asleep at this time, and she knocked for a long time before waking him up.
"Who is it, this is in the middle of the night!"
Si Zhu, who was dreaming of marrying a wife, got off the bed angrily, pulled on his slippers and came to open the door, but no one came for nearly two days. When he saw it was Lou Xiao'e, he was immediately overjoyed and quickly pulled her into the house. , held her face, took a bite, and complained: "I said, what have you been doing these two days? You haven't seen anyone."
Lou Xiao'e did not answer him, but hugged him tightly. He looked at Si Zhu and whispered in his ear: "Stop talking and kiss me!"
...
At the same time, Du San also came to the courtyard.
Hidden in the darkness like a shadow, he quietly touched the base of Chu Heng's window. Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the window, he suddenly heard the sound of eating in the house.
Du San hesitated, then gently knocked on the window three times.
“Dang Dang Dang!”
In an instant, there was no movement in the room.
Chu Heng, who was eating, raised his head and wiped the honey from his mouth, took a blanket and wrapped it around himself, walked quickly to the door and opened the door.
The next moment, Du San appeared in front of him and said with a strange face: "Master Chu, I didn't disturb your enjoyment, did I?"
Chu Heng rolled his eyes at him and urged. : "Don't talk nonsense, talk about it quickly."
"The Lou family are all gone!" Du San grinned and whispered to him: "Almost two hours ago, the Lou family drove three cars from home and picked up those from the Miao family and the Lu family. People left the city together.”
"On the way, Miss Lou left the convoy in a small car. I thought about catching the big ones and letting the small ones go, so I didn't follow. Unexpectedly, when I passed by the entrance of Dongtou Alley, I saw that car again, but only The driver is here, but Miss Lou is gone.”
“I understand,” Chu Heng said. He nodded expressionlessly, thought for a while and told Du San: "Go back and have a rest. You don't need to worry about other things. Remember to come to the store to find me tomorrow."
"Okay, let's See you later, Master Chu." As soon as he heard that he no longer had to stay up late, Du San breathed a sigh of relief and immediately turned around and left the courtyard.
After Chu Heng watched Du San go away, he turned back to the house, patted Qin Jingru who was in a semi-conscious state, and whispered in her ear: "I have something to go out for. You go to sleep first." Just wait until I come back before you leave."
The girl turned over as usual, and then realized what he was talking about. She turned her head weakly and asked, "Brother, why are you going? Ah.”
"Don't ask too much, just sleep in your bed." Chu Heng covered her with a quilt, put some clothes on her body, and hurriedly walked out of the courtyard.
Standing outside the courtyard gate, he thought of what Du San said about a car parked there in the east, so he rode his bike to the west, straight to the Lou family's mansion!
Operation Scavenger has officially begun!
