Dazed

Early the next morning, Qi Zheng and a group of workers lined up to wash their faces and brush their teeth. When it was his turn, he lowered his head halfway to splash the water. When he looked up, Zhao Youran was just standing next to him, smiling unconsciously. , sighed: "It's really cold today."

Since Qi Zheng saw that scene last night, he was not able to look directly at this thin but definitely not feminine roommate, and now he was a little embarrassed to face him, so he shifted his eyes awkwardly, and said, "Yes. "

Zhao Youran didn't seem to care about his response, he glanced at his water glass and reminded: "It's full."

Qi Zheng looked down, quickly turned on the faucet, then left with his things, and another person fetched water.

At eight o'clock in the morning, after breakfast, Qi Zheng started work on time. On his way back to himself, Qi Zheng suddenly saw the man from last night, Lao Liu, who hadn't returned to his post yet. Looking at the cement layer that is high above but still under construction, these small movements seemed nothing to others, but when Qi Zheng looked at it, he couldn't help but tense his nerves.

But catching the rape in bed, catching the thief and seeing the stolen goods, right now he has no evidence at all, so there is really nothing to do with him.

After a while, Cao Jingxing also came to work in good spirits. Qi Zheng looked at him with an impatient expression on his face, but he still refrained from saying it during working hours, fearing that the surname Zhou would be dissatisfied, but Cao Jingxing seemed to have received his signal, no Came to his side in a hurry, said with a smile: "Let's eat together at noon."

Qi Zheng nodded, knowing that he knew he had something to say, and said, "Okay."

After finally making it to meal time, Qi Zheng and Cao Jingxing stayed in the office as usual, and after checking that there was no one around, they dared to speak with confidence.

Cao Jingxing said with a smile: "I saw that you looked like you had something to say to me in the morning, what's the matter?"

Qi Zheng didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "There is definitely a problem here. Last night, Lao Liu met with a person and said that there will be a bigger accident, so that you and your uncle have no time to investigate their affairs."

Cao Jingxing was curious, but his eyes were a little indifferent, and he asked calmly, "Then what do they want to do?"

"I didn't hear it very clearly. That person said that he was going to blow up the cement filling side. It is estimated that more than a dozen people would die at a time..." Qi Zheng recalled their conversation last night, and still found it a little incredible. Do people live in the same era as him? How can they be like the underworld in Hong Kong movies, how many lives are lost when they open their mouths and shut their mouths.

More than a dozen people... Cao Jingxing pondered in his heart, a trace of ignorance flashed quickly in his eyes, and said, "The dozen or so people in the filling team seem to be in the same dormitory as you."

Although we are all in the same dormitory, apart from Zhao Youran and Fatty Zhou, Qi Zheng really hasn't had much contact with other people. Hearing what Cao Jingxing said, he was taken aback for a moment, then thought about it, it seems that it is true, and said: " Um."

"It's not going to be easy." Cao Jingxing sighed leisurely, his face was still gentle and kind, and he couldn't see what was going on in his heart.

"Can't call the police?" Qi Zheng asked.

Cao Jingxing shook his head firmly and said, "No."

Qi Zheng frowned, and said, "What can we do?"

Cao Jingxing narrowed his eyes, and suddenly released a sharp light, saying: "Lead the snake out of the hole."

Qi Zheng raised his eyebrows, suddenly remembered something, and said, "The person who met with the surname Liu gave me his contact information."

Cao Jingxing's expression turned cold immediately, and he said, "Oh, that person."

"He asked me if I need to introduce a job, and should I take a chance to go there to find out?" Qi Zheng guessed that the man was repeating his old tricks and introduced him to a fake job, but what would happen after he went there? I can't even imagine.

Cao Jingxing disagreed, and said, "Do you think you are a policeman, and you are still fishing to enforce the law?"

"This group of people is so mad that they want to kill another ten people, not to mention the dozen lives, if something really happened, if you don't get them out, you will be blamed." Qi Zheng felt that since he knew about this matter, he would It is absolutely impossible to watch from the sidelines and watch this group of people continue to endanger society.

Qi Zheng, who is not familiar with him, always thinks that he has a bad temper, like a hooligan, and keeps talking foul language, especially when he first came here, except for Fatty Zhou, almost no one dared to talk to him. I'm afraid that he is someone from the underworld, but people should not be judged by appearances. He often has a warm heart that radiates from his bones, and is so stubborn that sometimes even Cao Jingxing loves and hates it.

Cao Jingxing's attitude was clear, and he said firmly: "The work cannot be stopped, I want to see how they do it."

"Then what do you mean by leading the snake out of the hole?" Qi Zheng was puzzled.

Cao Jingxing said: "Aren't they going to make a safety accident, I'll see what they can do."

"What if an accident really happens, it's more than a dozen lives." Qi Zheng objected. They were all real colleagues, and he refrained from doing things that could have been solved. He was afraid that he would not feel at ease after his death.

"If you went to see them, what would you do? What would you do if you were injured?" Cao Jingxing's face was slightly angry. For him, it was absolutely impossible for him to expose him to danger.

Qi Zheng pondered for a while, but he was not worried, and said: "They won't do anything to me as soon as they come up, they have to make people happy first, and then kill them."

The anger in Cao Jingxing's eyes was obvious, his face was full of gloom, he lowered his voice and reprimanded: "You are not allowed to say that about yourself."

Qi Zheng was taken aback by his expression, it was the first time he saw Cao Jingxing angry, and the reason for his anger was so uncertain, he was at a loss for what to do, frowned, and said: "How about I go ahead , you hire a few stronger men to follow behind and rush up if something goes wrong?"

Cao Jingxing's expression slowed down a bit when he heard the words, and he said, "Give me the location of the mobile phone, and make sure I can follow."

"They recognize your appearance, don't expose it."

Cao Jingxing waved his hands and said, "I have a measure."

"My broken phone doesn't have that advanced function." Qi Zheng said.

Cao Jingxing had been prepared for a long time and said, "Take mine when the time comes."

"Row."

So the two made a decision, no one knows when this group of desperate people who seem to be wandering on the edge of society will detonate everything, judging by their sophisticated appearance and large number of people, they seem to be a mature gang. No one knows how many people were wronged to death by them.

But the most embarrassing thing is this. You know they have problems, but you can't produce evidence. If you can't produce evidence, it's useless. Even the police can't do anything about them. Their camouflage skills are so sophisticated. When it comes to ghosts, maybe these people are repeating the old tricks and entrapping an innocent life again.

Qi Zheng was standing on the construction site by himself, and he couldn't figure out whether the skill of being able to see ghosts was good or bad, and he was able to see it so inexplicably that even Tao Qinghui couldn't find the reason.

Three days later, at six o'clock in the afternoon, Qi Zheng made an appointment with the person surnamed Zhan. Afraid of meeting their accomplice Lao Liu who knew him well, Qi Zheng even found a suburb to meet them.

In winter, the sun goes down early. Although it is only six o’clock in the afternoon, the surrounding area is still dark. The dark night makes the surrounding wild grass shake like a beast hidden by the cold wind, making some lonely rustling sounds from time to time. , The hearts of those who listened trembled.

Qi Zheng has nothing to be afraid of. He is 1.8 meters six and weighs 130 catties. He is usually not easy to provoke. He still doesn't believe that this group of people can be so powerful and subdue him out of thin air.What's more, Cao Jingxing was still following behind. Many experiences made him have the most absolute trust in Cao Jingxing, trusting that this person is also capable of helping him.

But it was too cold, and the person who called him Brother Zhan didn't know that Qi Zheng and Lao Liu worked at the same construction site, and mistakenly thought that he was a migrant worker. Under the jacket, he wore a pair of washed white denim, shivering a little in the cold windy night.

After a while, a dilapidated van suddenly drove over in the bleak field, and its long high beams shone a dazzling light in the wilderness. Qi Zheng stood there and stomped his feet, and the car quickly stopped in front of him. , as soon as the driver's door opened, the middle-aged man named Brother Zhan was wearing a dark purple down jacket, sitting on the seat, looking at Qi Zheng alone, with a dilapidated and dazed look, believing in his predictions After a few minutes, he beckoned and said, "Did you bring your ID card and household registration book?"

Qi Zheng, who was standing by the side of the road, nodded, and handed the fake certificates and IDs that he bought for 30 yuan to the man, saying, "Bring them."

The man in the car looked through with his eyes squinted and a cigarette in his mouth, stuffed everything in his pocket, and said, "That's fine, come on, get in the car."

Qi Zheng didn't make any protest against his actions, but squinted his eyes and looked around, and asked hesitantly, "Where are we going?"

Brother Zhan understood the man's doubts, and said to him, "I'm the only one in the car when we go to the market town in the city center. Don't worry, I won't eat you."

Qi Zheng showed a look of dissatisfaction, obviously he didn't want to be looked down upon by the other party, and said coldly: "If I was afraid, I wouldn't come to you."

Immediately, he stepped on his leg and got into the car. With a "snap", the car door closed, blocking Cao Jingxing who was guarding not far away. With his right hand in his pocket, he touched the cold fuselage above. Can Cao Jingxing follow up?

In the car, Brother Zhan skillfully steered the steering wheel, grinned, and asked, "When did you come to this city? Do you have any relatives here?"

"I just came here last month. I originally came to join my relatives. Who knew that he suddenly left unexpectedly, and I was the only one left."

"Then why don't you go back?" Brother Zhan inquired.

"What's the use of going back, there is no one in my hometown, so I still have a chance here, so let's go." Qi Zheng said expressionlessly.

Brother Zhan smiled inexplicably, and said with emotion: "The young man is quite self-motivated."

"When did you come to this city?"

"I've been here for three years. I'm well-versed here and often work on construction sites, so I worked as an intermediary with my boss." The man returned.

"You still have a boss?"

"Of course, how about making a fortune without me?" Brother Zhan returned.

Qi Zheng nodded, did not speak, and seemed a little silent.

Brother Zhan also understands that this kind of country people who have just come to the big city will always be a little flustered and inferior. They are used to covering up their embarrassment with silence. He was very confused, but in order to make him trust himself, he still said: "Let's go to my studio to have a look later, there are many people who work with me there, and later on the construction site. Someone will come for an interview, and if you succeed, you can go to work directly, and many of those construction sites cooperate with us, so you don’t have to worry about being bullied when you go there.”

"How many people are there in your studio?" Qi Zheng asked.

"About [-] or [-] people, all of them are living together."

Qi Zheng twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Are they all from the same place as you?"

Just when we arrived at the red street light, Brother Zhan turned the steering wheel and returned casually: "No, everyone is from all over the world, and they are all connected to our boss, so it is the best thing to come to this city and join us. Our boss has With the widest network of contacts in the city, I am not afraid to go anywhere.”

Qi Zheng sighed: "Isn't that very majestic, can you walk sideways?"

The man laughed when he heard this, and said, "How can you be so exaggerated, but it's okay to cover you."

"Why don't I join you too, at least I have a backer."

The man grinned when he heard this, and suddenly sighed: "It's not necessarily a good thing to get involved."

Another red light came on, the man stopped, unpacked Zhonghua, and handed a Qizheng, Qizheng took it, the man turned on the lighter again, lit it up, took a breath, and said, "Don't leave when you get there. Talk more, just listen quietly."

"En." Qi Zheng replied.

At this time, the roads are full of feasting lights, and the snow on the roadside is shining slightly under the neon lights. Although it is still cold winter, the nearby shopping malls are still very lively. Many hotel kitchens have bursts of heat, which smokes the entire road. It is steaming hot, and the smell of life is everywhere.

This guy named Zhan really didn't lie to him, their lair was placed in the center of the place so ostentatiously, no one could detect what kind of work these people were doing, and no one knew how much they treated them. What kind of impact it has on life, and no one knows how many foreigners who have just arrived in the local area have been dragged here by this group of people, and how many migrant workers without relatives have died unexpectedly. Everything is a mystery.
