District 9

inside the room.

Qin Yu looked at Xiao Qi and shook his head: "No, we can handle the rest."

Xiao Qi thought about it for a long time, but did not persuade, let alone inquire about the specific situation of the medicinal thread industry in detail. He only raised his eyebrows and asked again: "Really or falsely not necessary? I have been here for a long time, and we must be able to get things done at once. If you get rid of it, it will save me from worrying about you later."

"It's really not necessary." Qin Yu explained softly: "District Nine is different from the outside. Some things can't be solved by anyone. What's more, the people above me probably don't want to continue to intensify the conflict now. They just want to Be quiet as soon as possible."

"Well, as long as you have an idea."

Xiao Qi nodded, played with the water cup and said: "After you leave, I won't go back to the no-man's land, and I won't be here in a short time, so you'd better be more steady when doing things. Bar."

Qin Yu was stunned: "What are you doing? Where are you going?"

"I took over a job from a friend and may have to travel a long distance." Xiao Qi smiled: "Haha, don't worry about it."

Qin Yu looked at him with some worry, frowned and said, "Otherwise you can stay here, let's work on the medicine together, it will be more stable than you floating outside."

"Pull him down." Xiao Qi waved his hands and responded: "When someone wants to kill you, when you hold a knife in your hand to defend yourself, you have to consider not to stab someone's vitals. Haha, I can't do this job. , or the world full of opportunities outside is more suitable for me."

"Oh, I'm too lazy to argue with you." Qin Yu knew Xiao Qi's character, so he gave up persuading: "When will you leave?"

"I'll leave in a moment." Xiao Qi responded smoothly.

Qin Yu was stunned for a long time: "Are you in such a hurry?"

"You don't need me to do the rest, so why should I stay? It's a waste of time." Xiao Qi responded softly: "I have to meet a friend in a hurry. You can stay here to recuperate and hang out with Party A by the way." .”

"...Can't you stay with me for two days?"

"We have been together for almost ten years, and we haven't had enough?" Xiao Qi stood up: "I really have something to do, and I can't delay it any longer."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Mao opened the door and walked in. He smiled and said hello: "I asked the people here to prepare some food. Let's have some drinks later, buddy?"

"No." Xiao Qi turned around and responded, "We are ready to withdraw."

"Withdrawal?" Old Mao was stunned: "It's too hasty to leave as soon as we arrived."

"I'm relieved that he's fine." Xiao Qi responded softly: "I really have something to do, let's get together next time."

Old Mao heard the sound and looked at Qin Yu: "I let them cook all the dishes."

"Forget it, let him go if he wants to leave," Qin Yu didn't try to hold him back anymore: "There will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future."

"That's such a pity." Old Mao stretched out his palm towards Xiao Qi: "You saved our lives. Next time you come back to Songjiang, I will let you know what it means to feel at home."

"Haha, okay." Xiao Qi had a good impression of Lao Mao and found this man's carefreeness quite interesting: "Let's meet next time."

"If it's inconvenient for me, I won't send it to you." Qin Yu shouted while lying on the bed.

"Just wait." Xiao Qi waved his hand.

"Let's go, I'll see you off." Old Cat greeted softly: "By the way, I'll ask the brothers here to get you a few barrels of gas."

"Okay."

Xiao Qi responded and decisively walked out of the room without saying another word to Qin Yu.

…

More than twenty minutes later.

Lao Mao asked Xiao Qi to refill a few barrels of gasoline and get some food for the road, and then the other two cars drove away along the street.

After standing on the roadside and watching Xiao Qi leave, the old cat trotted back to Qin Yu's room with his crotch between his legs.

"Leaving?" Qin Yu asked.

"Well, let's go." The old cat nodded and bared his teeth and asked, "Hey, what does he have to do with you?"

After Qin Yu thought about it for a long time, he responded truthfully: "We are both orphans, and we grew up together with an old man. When we were young, we had to eat together, and we worked together in the mountains... Although we are not related by blood, our relationship is better than that of a close relative. Brother is even better."

"The old man is your adoptive father?"

"Yes." Qin Yu nodded.

"Where are the people?"

"...I got sick and died a few years ago."

"That's all in vain." The old cat sighed: "This old man has a kind heart."

When Qin Yu heard this, he explained softly: "My old man is definitely not bad-hearted, but he also has some purpose in adopting us."

"What's the purpose?"

"All the money and food we kids earn from working will be given to him, and then he will take care of our food." Qin Yu responded with a smile: "When the ninth district was first established, there were many such things in the planned area. Because the children are young and cannot survive alone outside, then if we all work together and have a leader, we will not be easily bullied."

"Oh, that's right." Old Mao nodded and asked curiously: "Has Xiao Qi ever served in the military? I think he doesn't act like an ordinary person."

"No, the work he does is purely practiced by himself and others." Qin Yu shook his head and replied: "Me too."

"Nonsense, can you practice this job by yourself?" Lao Mao said in disbelief: "I was in the superintendent's office and approved training bombs at will, but now when I work with people in the army, I can't keep up with the rhythm. This All those who fight in a hurry are drunken marksmen. You tell me that this guy should be self-taught, why don’t I believe it?!”

Qin Yu thought for a moment and asked, "Then why can Qi Lin get a rank among the superintendents? Does he have a one-to-one teacher, or is there someone willing to take care of him?"

The old cat was stunned.

"For you, it doesn't matter whether your personal qualities are good or not. Anyway, as long as Li Si is sitting there, you will always be able to behave like a dog." Qin Yu said with a smile: "But we can't, Ba If we work alone together and you slip up at the critical moment, then who will take you to eat together in the future?"

"Yes." The old cat nodded.

"Oh, it's not easy for Xiao Qi. I didn't see how my relatives died...but he saw his father and mother die at home." Qin Yu sighed and said, "So, his personality has been similar to others since he was a child. It’s different. When the old man was alive, he always scolded him, saying that he was a prickly man, like a wolf cub, haha.”

"Why are his parents gone?" The old cat asked like a curious baby.

Qin Yu thought about it for a long time: "Forget it, we won't talk about it behind your back."

…

On the road.

Xiao Qi was lying on the passenger seat, sleeping soundly with his hands on his shoulders.

The car drove all the way south, passing by the scenery along the road.

He traveled thousands of miles and spent two days to rescue Qin Yu in Fengbei, but when he left, he didn't even eat a bite of hot food.

It can be seen that the brotherly relationship between them does not seem to be as simple as Qin Yu described.

…

In the corridor.

After Yongdong thought about it for a long time, he knocked on Qin Yu's door.

"Who is it?" the old cat shouted.

"It's me," Yongdong responded in a low voice, "Let's talk!"
