Trafford Buyers Club

Chapter 1939 Both parents died, no brothers and no house

Beibei cut a strip of meat from the frozen steak and shook it in front of the prairie dog.

The strips of meat wobble like earthworms, but the appetite of the pastoral dog doesn't seem to be very high...not even.

Since it was turned into a second-hand electrical appliance store, it has been crawling in the corner, and the narrator even has a shelf—it completely stores itself in this small and unusually safe place.

"I thought I was already a geek before, but I didn't expect you to be more nerdy than me... What's your name? May I call you Xiaobei?" Beibei squatted at this time, holding her chin with both hands, "My name is Beibei, shellfish, hello!"

Pastoral dog... Xiaobei, who just got a name, didn't seem to hear it, and didn't even lift his drooping ears.

It really looks like a useless dog.

But the girl seemed to have turned on the switch to talk, and began to talk to herself, talking about some irrelevant things-in the end, Xiao Bei still didn't eat the beef strips.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the gate outside.

The girl who was talking to herself stood up in an instant, and the moment she got up, she lifted the knife for cutting beef upside down and stuck it to her arm.

His gaze also became unusually cold.

At this time, Xiaobei's eyes opened a gap, and after taking a look, he continued his lifeless life.

The sound of the flapping gate hadn't stopped yet, Beibei approached, put her ear closer, listening carefully, and at the same time looked at the picture on the monitoring screen.

A short-haired girl knocked on the door outside... Beibei frowned, and after thinking for a while, she pulled down her sleeves, hid the knife in her hand, and opened the side door.

"What's the matter? We are closed for business here." Beibei looked at the short-haired woman and said apologetically.

……

The one who came out was a rather young girl... In this grade, she was only nineteen or twenty.

Nan Xiaonan opened her mouth at this time and said, "I see that the lights are still on in your place, so I want to find something."

Beibei frowned and said, "Looking for something?"

Nan Xiaonan nodded, "I'm going to buy a second-hand washing machine... I got off work too late, and other places were closed. I just saw that there was still some light here, so I had to give it a try. You know, it's very late at night. There’s a curfew, and it’s inconvenient to buy something.”

"washing machine?"

Nan Xiaonan nodded and said: "I just came here to work... I rented a house in the city village over there, and I haven't packed my things yet! There are too many things to wash... Semi-automatic ones are fine, use them first. .”

"Sorry, we don't have the washing machine you want here." Beibei shook her head.

"That's it..." Nan Xiaonan said with a regretful face, "Then can I go in and have a look? I want to see if there are any cheap and useful home appliances... It seems that the induction cooker is also needed."

"No." Beibei still shook her head, "You'd better go to another place tomorrow... I'm going to close the door."

"Pretty girl, let me take a look? Those of us who are new to the social animal labor party are very hard-working. Such a big second-hand store must have induction cookers, right?" Nan Xiaonan said bitterly.

"what's going on?"

At this time, a man's voice came from inside the second-hand electrical appliance shop... Beibei quickly looked in, "Boss Jin, there is a lady here who wants to come in and buy something."

"Buy what?"

Taking advantage of Beibei's inattention, Nan Xiaonan poked her head in, "Washing machine and induction cooker...you are the boss? Please, I just moved here, and the landlord who lives here is a stingy landlord...tonight is really inconvenient. "

Beibei frowned, and immediately grabbed Nan Xiaonan's arm.

"Let her in." The man in the store... Boss Jin said calmly at this time.

"The boss is still a good guy!" Nan Xiaonan smiled and patted Beibei's palm away from her, and went straight into the electric appliance shop.

"We have what you want." Boss Jin said calmly at this time: "But it's so late, how do you carry it back? At this time, you can't call the person who pulls the goods... At night, there is no one on the street. "

"It's okay, it's not far, just across the road, I can carry it myself!" Nan Xiaonan patted his biceps at this time and said: "I have gained muscle since I broke up with my boyfriend. Next time I see my ex-boyfriend, I will Appoint him to be killed!"

Boss Jin looked at it blankly, then walked to the side slowly, and found a half-new and old induction cooker from the shelf, then pointed to the other side and said: "There is only this induction cooker, and there are three washing machines here, you can see for yourself." Whichever you choose, just carry it away."

"How much is this?" Nan Xiaonan asked directly pointing to the one in the middle.

"One hundred and five." Boss Jin said indifferently: "If you don't bargain, you can take it away, and if you don't want it, you can close the door."

"Boss, are you... in business?" Nan Xiaonan opened her mouth.

Boss Jin stared silently again.

Nan Xiaonan had no choice but to say: "Including this induction cooker, how about one hundred and eighty?"

Mr. Jin suddenly asked, "Where do you live?"

Nan Xiaonan said casually: "The village in the city is just across the road, not very far away."

Mr. Jin said indifferently: "Give me two hundred and three, and I will carry the things for you."

Nan Xiaonan opened her mouth at this time, as if she was caught off guard.

At the same time, Beibei from behind was slowly approaching step by step, and the light of the murder weapon was already exposed in the palm of his hand... The knife was quietly raised behind Nan Xiaonan.

I just heard Nan Xiaonan say with a single mouth at this time: "It's just crossing a road, and you have to charge 50? Boss, you are too foolish! Do you think I am from other places and bully people?"

"Then how much do you say?" Boss Jin said indifferently.

"Thirty!" Nan Xiaonan gritted her teeth, "It's a price to achieve, if it's not a big deal, I'll bear it myself!"

"Then thirty." Boss Jin nodded.

Beibei was startled, but finally backed away quietly... The tip of the knife moved away from the back of Nan Xiaonan's neck without a sound.

I saw Nan Xiaonan grinning at this moment and said: "It's all there anyway, is Boss Jin right... this old fan counts as ten yuan for me?"

"You are very greedy." Boss Jin said abruptly.

Nan Xiaonan blinked, "Women are greedy, and young women are even more greedy."

"Take it." Boss Jin said indifferently, "If you want anything else, take it together. Our place may not be open tomorrow."

"temporarily unavailable."

"Beibei, come and carry these two things." Boss Jin said directly at this time: "I'll pull the big ones."

……

The sound of the wheels of the trolley hitting the bricks was very loud... Boss Jin walked ahead with the washing machine alone.

"By the way, my name is Xiao Nan, how about you?"

Nan Xiaonan walked with Beibei... on the pedestrian bridge leading to the opposite road.

"Babe."

"What a cute name." Nan Xiaonan smiled, then lowered her voice and said, "You boss, you don't seem to like to talk much... you are quite fierce."

Beibei smiled and said: "The boss is not very talkative, but he is very nice."

Nan Xiaonan nodded, and asked casually: "Has your second-hand store been open for a long time, are you local?"

"It's been a while." Beibei also said casually: "We are also from other places, and we're actually not very familiar with this place. It's not safe in the city recently, so we don't dare to run around."

"That's just to say." Nan Xiaonan said bitterly: "It's hard to find a job. I finally found one, and the salary is only a little bit... By the way, I heard that the nearby [No. [-] Mansion] water bath center is recruiting. Man, you know what? How's that stuff, serious or not?"

"This...not very clear." Beibei shook her head, "Do you want to work in that kind of place?"

"Ask." Nan Xiaonan smiled casually.

At this moment, Boss Jin stopped suddenly, "The road is passing by, where do we go in now?"

"Go straight along the archway, and you will be there in a hundred meters. The third floor is not high!" Nan Xiaonan said quickly, "It's just that the corridor is a bit narrow!"

"fine."

Without continuing to speak, the distance of a hundred meters has indeed been reached in a short time... It is an old house turned into a narrow alley, and there is nothing special about it.

Boss Jin picked up the washing machine without saying a word, went up the corridor, stopped in front of the iron gate on the third floor, and said calmly, "Open the door."

Nan Xiaonan said: "Wait a minute, I'll clean up... It's a bit messy inside!"

Nan Xiaonan quickly opened the door, then walked directly into the rental house, and closed the door... Unexpectedly, Boss Jin suddenly stretched out his palm, grabbed the door panel, and pushed the door panel open forcefully.

"What are you doing! I told you to wait!"

In an instant, Nan Xiaonan felt as if her tail had been stepped on, and her whole body screamed... Boss Jin opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything, and let Nan Xiaonan close the door again.

"This woman... is quite sloppy."

Beibei said something abruptly.

The moment Boss Jin pushed the door open, she could basically see what the room looked like...it was really messy, and there were a few red, purple, and black underwear hanging there.

"It seems that they are really just here to buy things." Beibei said in a low voice at this time.

"Look again." Boss Jin said indifferently.

Beibei nodded silently.

After a while, Nan Xiaonan opened the door again... One bedroom and one bathroom, there is no so-called kitchen, only a small table and some convenient kitchen utensils can be placed directly in the room.

The clothes on the anti-theft net on the window have been collected.

This is a typical one-person dormitory in an urban village... It's still the squat toilet type, dark, humid, and stuffy.

Boss Jin didn't say anything, he directly carried the washing machine in, and then started to install it.

"It's a bit messy... sorry."

"It's ok."

They chatted about some unimportant things outside... It seems that it is easier for women to communicate with each other.

"Miss Xiaonan, why do you think of coming here to work by yourself?"

"Longing for a big city." Nan Xiaonan opened a bottle of beer and sat down, looked out the window with her head up and said, "I've longed for it since I was a child, but after arriving in a big city, I found that it's actually just like that."

"Family?"

"I don't have a family anymore." Nan Xiaonan shook her head, "One person is full and the whole family is not hungry, that's what I'm talking about."

"sorry, I do not know……"

"Yeah." Nan Xiaonan shook her head, her eyes depressed: "It doesn't matter, I've been used to it for a long time... I can't remember what my parents look like."

"This key..." Beibei looked curiously at the key pendant around Nan Xiaonan's neck.

"This one..." Nan Xiaonan lowered her head, reaching for the key pendant, then shook her head and put it away: "It's not something important, I just bought it because it looked special."

Beibei didn't ask deeply.

"It's already installed. Take a look. If there is no problem, we will leave." Boss Jin walked out directly at this time, quite simply.

After Nan Xiaonan looked at it, she said there was no problem, and Boss Jin took Beibei away, still looking very straightforward.

"Thank you! If you need anything else, I'll come to you again, boss! Remember to give me a good price!"

She watched the two leave in the corridor.

……

……

Downstairs, Boss Jin raised his head and looked around... He saw Beibei come back from a circle at this time, shook his head and said, "There is nothing suspicious."

At this time, Boss Jin went directly to a canteen, looked at an aunt with a purse in front of the counter and asked, "Are you the landlord of this building?"

"A house looker?" The aunt looked around suspiciously.

"Inquire about something." Boss Jin thought for a while and said, "The woman on the third floor just moved here?"

I saw that the aunt frowned at this moment, and said vigilantly: "Why are you asking these questions?"

Bei Bei hurried up at this time, holding Boss Jin's arm affectionately, and said with a sweet smile, "That's right, lady boss, this is my elder brother... He just met the older sister upstairs, it's interesting, So I want to inquire. My eldest brother is a very nice person, but his family members are a little anxious, and he himself is also anxious... Can you help me?"

She gave the proprietress some consulting money... quietly.

"It seems that you don't look like bad people." The aunt took the money with a smile, and then sighed: "Speaking of which, this girl is also quite miserable. I have been looking for a house here for several days, and I think it is expensive. The deal was done. I saw that she was very pitiful, so I happened to have a vacant room, so I rented it to her cheaply."

"Did she have a miserable life experience?" Beibei asked curiously.

"It's been miserable enough without parents for a long time." The aunt sighed and said, "No, I had a boyfriend who was talking about marriage, but he passed away suddenly a few months ago... I don't know why. I don’t know, it’s not easy to ask, isn’t it? It’s not easy for this girl. The other day she moved things, and the downstairs was full of piles. I kindly wanted to help her call someone to carry it upstairs, but she insisted on being alone. I resisted all of them, and I was exhausted, but I didn’t save a lot of money.”

Beibei and Boss Jin looked at each other, and Beibei smiled again at this moment: "Then aunt, do you know where she works?"

"I'm not very clear about this... But these few days she went out very early in the morning, and when she came back, it was around this point."

"Okay, thank you, lady boss." Beibei nodded at this time.

"I have her phone number here, do you want it? Just don't tell her I said it." The Great God said with a smile at this time.

"No need." Beibei said casually: "For this kind of thing, it is more sincere to ask in person. Excuse me, lady boss."

"You're welcome... come to my shop often in the future! Many girls pass by my place!"

They have gone far.

……

……

Beibei is in charge of cooking.

A group of people ate around a wooden table without much conversation.

Maeve asked curiously while eating: "Where's the boss? Don't you want to eat?"

"I don't know, I went to the small room when I came back." Beibei shook her head.

They looked at Boss Jin's small room at the same time - he never let people go in.Of course, there are no secrets in it—after all, they have only come to this second-hand store not long ago.

Including Mr. Jin himself... It's just this second-hand electrical appliance shop that has only been sold in the past half a month.

"Speaking of which, isn't this dog...a bit ugly?"

"Is there? It's called Xiaobei!" Beibei protested at this time: "Where is it ugly?"

Just talking about some irrelevant things, like a family member.

The sound... could not be transmitted into the small room—even if it did, Mr. Jin probably wouldn't be able to hear it clearly at this time.

Because he was wearing headphones at the moment, and on the table was an open suitcase... wiretapping equipment.

"Dead cockroach! Kill you! Kill you!!! Still running! Still running...die!"

"Oh, my feet... my feet..."

"Alone, let's eat instant noodles... Of course, I want a piece of cheese..."

"This rubbish drama is getting uglier and uglier! If I become a member again, I'll be a pig!"

The sound of eating noodles.

Suddenly, the chattering voice stopped, and there was silence.

Mr. Jin frowned, and reached out to twist the knob inside the box... Then, a sobbing sound slowly hit his ear.

rushed into his heart.
