Natural enemies

Binjiang Road is a slightly old street, but it is quite popular with out-of-towners because there are cheap basements for rent.

A dim light illuminates a narrow corridor, and because there are no windows, there is always a musty smell.

But this is nothing, at least compared to the smell of instant noodles and smelly socks in some residents' houses, it is really nothing to mention.There are more than a dozen basements in a row here. If the doors are all opened, the smell will be too rich.

When Gu Yi was woken up by the ringing of his mobile phone, he could smell several kinds of instant noodles coming in through the crack of the door—there were braised beef noodles, fresh shrimp and fish noodles, Laotan sauerkraut noodles, and Xin La noodles, mixed together. Together, it made him sick to his stomach.

But he actually has nothing to vomit, it should just be a little aftereffect of the holy water damage.It's nothing, his body has actually fully recovered, this discomfort is not so much physical as psychological, after all the wine mixed with holy water has stayed in his stomach for so long.

Gu Yi raised his hand in front of his eyes in the dark and looked at it.The scorched black part of the hand has disappeared, and the slender fingers are as active as before, completely without the terrifying appearance a few hours ago.Nothing seems to have happened at all, only the salty but sweet taste in the throat, even after rinsing, it still lingers, like the temptation of the devil, which makes people feel disgusted, but can't help but want to indulge.

Gu Yi rubbed his face vigorously and sat up.

This basement is about twenty square meters.Compared with the other rooms, this room was as clean as if no one lived in it, and even the musty smell in the room seemed to be less.

There is only one ventilation window in the room, which is only big enough for an orange cat to get in and out.Now the window is still covered with a double-layer black cloth curtain, and only a dim yellow light from under the door crack prevents the room from being completely invisible.

In the darkness, the flickering light screen of the mobile phone is more conspicuous, and there is a text message on it: The certificate is ready, come and pick it up.

Ten minutes later, Gu Yi washed his face with cold water in the basin, took out an envelope from under the pillow and put it in his pocket, picked up the umbrella leaning against the corner of the wall, and opened the door.

"Hey, Xiao Gu, are you going to work?" A mandarin with a bit of Shanghai accent came from outside the door at the right time, and Gu Yi stepped back: "Aunt Zhou?"

The landlady wore light makeup on her face, and her eyes were shrewd: "It's been raining a lot these days, isn't your room flooded?"

"Oh, it's okay." It's not the rainy season yet, and the room is certainly not damp enough to grow mushrooms. Aunt Zhou's coming here at this time must not be because of flooding.

"Oh, don't worry, Auntie. You young people, you don't always take care of yourself when you are alone..." Aunt Zhou rambled on for 5 minutes before she changed her mind, "Speaking of which, your contract is also It's almost due, do you want to continue renting?"

"Of course it is."

"I want to continue to live—" Aunt Zhou lowered her head to study the nails she just made, and said casually, "It's not that Auntie is boasting. Although this house is old, the location is good and the transportation is convenient. It's so close to the city now. In this place, the rent is getting higher day by day... No wonder, if you live here, you can save a car if you live outside."

Gu Yi could already guess what she wanted to say, and sure enough, Aunt Zhou got to the point right away: "It's not that Auntie wants to make things difficult for you. Right now, housing prices are going up all the time, and Auntie has to live, right? You want to continue to live Well, the rent has to be increased. Auntie doesn’t want more, so let’s add 200 yuan. Let’s forget this month and start next month, okay?”

Gu Yi's rental contract will expire in three months, and if the new rent is to be implemented, it should be after the completion of the old contract.But Gu Yi didn't say anything: "I know." The market is like this, if you want to live among humans, you can only follow the rules of humans.

"Hey—that's right." Gu Yi agreed so happily that Aunt Zhou immediately smiled, "Auntie's house has just replaced an old air conditioner, do you want it? It only costs 500 yuan, and Auntie will find someone to install it for you. Later It's going to be hot in a few days, so it's better to pretend."

Gu Yi smiled: "No need. Thank you, Auntie." He really didn't need the air conditioner.

Aunt Zhou was a little disappointed that the old air conditioner was not sold, so she lost the mood to talk to Gu Yi, turned around and knocked on the door of the next household, and continued to negotiate the rent.

Gu Yi walked up the stairs to the gate.Although it was four o'clock in the afternoon, the sky outside was overcast, the rain drifted indistinctly, and the air was filled with the smell of soil.The weather is very suitable for going out, Gu Yi opened his umbrella and strode out.

The place he went to was a bit older than Binjiang Road. There had been calls for demolition for several years, but there had been no movement so far—several narrow alleys, which looked a bit nostalgic from the outside, but inside they were mixed with fish and dragons.

Gu Yi walked across the muddy road to a small building.Outside the door of the building, two young men with colorfully dyed hair gathered together and whispered together: "This is the latest product, it's from Japan."

"What exactly is it?" The man with yellow hair looked suspiciously at the pill in the other's hand, "What's new? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"I told you it's a new product. It's strange if I haven't heard of it before?" The other is a half-headed red-haired man, and he waved the things in his hand in front of the yellow-haired man. The ice is soft, the time is not too short, and the stamina is small. It takes about three or four hours for one pill, and nothing happens after that.”

Even though the distance was far, Gu Yi still heard it.Having worked in Haitian for several years, he certainly knows that the ice they are talking about refers to a soft drug containing a small amount of methamphetamine, which is quite popular in nightclubs just like ecstasy, K powder or Magu.What Hongmao said meant that the hallucinogenic effect after taking this small tablet was relatively mild and the time was short, but there were no sequelae.

Huang Mao showed a look of disgust on his face: "It's only been four hours..." Not to mention anything else, the action time of ecstasy can reach more than six hours. In comparison, the cost performance of this kind of pill is obviously not very cost-effective." This one of yours is twice as expensive as that one..."

"Cut!" Hong Mao returned with a look of disdain, "I said that the stamina is weak, do you understand? I tried it, and it felt very comfortable. After the strength of the medicine passed, I immediately jumped up and down, and I didn't feel anything at all!"

Ecstasy does feel strong when you take it, but when the effect of the medicine wears off, you will feel tired and depressed, and it is easy to become addicted.Speaking of which, most of the various soft drugs that are popular now are like this.

Huang Mao felt even more boring: "If you are not addicted, who will ask you for goods?"

"I said why don't you understand!" Hongmao was a little anxious, "rich people are not afraid of death? After using it, it won't hurt your body. Things that are safe will definitely sell.

"What are you afraid of being expensive?" After Hongmao finished speaking, he snorted again, "Are customers still afraid of spending money in those high-end places? Let me tell you, I only came to look for it because your customers all want good products." You..." They also have their own territories, and they can't enter anywhere.If he could also enter a place like Haitian, why would he need to look for the idiot Huangmao?This idiot doesn't even understand such a clear truth. If he didn't take advantage of the locals, how could Haitian's territory get him?

Only then did Huang Mao feel a little moved: "Then—what does it feel like?"

"That feeling..." An intoxicated expression appeared on Hongmao's face, "It's not the same as anything else, it's like you're lying on a cloud, it's so comfortable, you don't even want to open your eyes..."

He usually talks about dirty things in one set, but he really needs to describe something. In fact, his words are a little lacking. He said it over and over again for a long time, and he felt comfortable. Seeing Huang Mao's expression was a little disappointed, he thought of another sentence: "Just follow the horse immediately." It's like an orgasm, and the main thing is that there is nothing wrong with it after it is used up-by the way! The police can't find it out!"

"Huh?" This sentence aroused Huangmao's interest.His clients are of a higher status than the red-haired ones—unlike those gangsters who don’t care about going in and out of the bureau anymore—most of his clients have a considerable social status However, "the police can't find out" is still very tempting for them.

"Really!" Hongmao solemnly assured, "I can't even find out through blood tests! This thing is not chemically synthesized, it is purely biological. Didn't I say that there are not many new products from Japan in China, and the police have no Can't check."

This is extremely layman's words, but Huangmao actually doesn't understand it. He just thinks that pure biology sounds very high, so he nodded: "Then you give me fifty pills, and I'll try to sell it. If it's good, Your benefits are indispensable."

When Hong Mao heard that he was asking for fifty pills, he smiled happily, and busy complimenting him while taking out things: "Your brother is very generous, I have only sold a total of ten pills in the past few days-I and you Said, the things are really good, but they are a bit expensive, imported goods... Hey, but the guests on your brother's side are all nobles, and they don't care about the money... You still have the ability to support and support brothers at any time... "

Huang Mao listened to his flattery reservedly, while counting carefully: "That is - as long as the things are good, the rich don't care about the money..." But he didn't answer any words of support.Just a joke, the guests in one's own territory must of course be taken into one's own hands, who would be stupid enough to ask others to share a piece of the pie.As for someone like Hongmao, he is only worthy of dealing with those gangsters and poor people. Do you want to reach out to other places?Think beautifully!

Huang Mao thought to himself, but felt very high-spirited, he unconsciously puffed up his chest, and looked around with complacent eyes—this dirty place, if Hong Mao hadn't said that there were new products, he wouldn't have come here.

Gu Yi happened to walk past them at this time, and glanced at the thing that the red hair took out - a small blue pill in a plastic sealed package, only the size of a soybean, with some letters printed on it delicately, it looked really high-end .Huangmao casually tore open a grain and smelled it, which immediately made Hongmao look distressed: "Don't—this thing will lose its smell after unpacking..."

"How can you not look at the goods!" Huang Maobai gave him a look, "This one belongs to you." He said, suddenly noticed Gu Yi's gaze, and immediately stared at him vigilantly: "What are you looking at! Do you want to be beaten?"

As for the figure of Huang Mao, who can barely reach 1.7 meters of bamboo poles, Gu Yi can really hit ten with one hand, but he is not afraid, but he does not want to cause trouble for the people who live here, so he put down the umbrella, Walk past them.

Huang Mao didn't like Gu Yi's attitude, but when he looked at his figure, he had no choice but to dismiss the thought of giving him a lesson, and turned to the red hair to vent: "Hurry up! Isn't it just fifty grains? Are you counting gold or silver?"

The red hair was inexplicably slapped, but he could only laugh along with him: "That's good, that's good. This product is from Japan, and that person doesn't have many in his hands now. I'm not afraid of dropping a few too pity……"

Huang Mao put on a straight face: "If you don't tell me, I forgot, who gave this medicine? Why didn't I know that there are new supplies now? Do you know the rules?"

Hongmao cursed inwardly, but continued to put on a smiley face: "I'm a foreigner, so I came to test the water first...Of course I understand the rules, otherwise I wouldn't come to you first..."

The two walked away while talking, Gu Yi then withdrew his attention, walked up to the second floor, and knocked on a door that was so graffitied that he couldn't see his true colors.It took more than ten minutes for the door to open, and there was a thin young man standing inside the door, holding a bowl of instant noodles in his hands. When he saw the fast food box in Gu Yi's hand, his eyes lit up, and he threw the instant noodles away Went to the shoe cabinet at the door: "Ham porridge from the old family!"
