After Jiang Chiyu came back, Yu Duo sent a WeChat message to the brother on duty at night, asking him if there was anything unusual in the warehouse.

After about half an hour, the other party wrote back to tell him that everything was normal.

But early the next morning, news came from the warehouse that several coils of wires had been stolen last night.Yu Duo asked the workers carefully before he was willing to tell the truth—it was too cold last night, and no one came out to patrol at all.

Chen Li woke up early in the morning as if he had been shot, and he disliked everyone.According to Si Mao's information, the proprietress discovered Chen Li's messing around outside, and the couple fought again last night.

Now that Chen Li has suffered from his wife, he spread all his grievances on a group of younger brothers.Early in the morning, he called Yu Duo and the worker who was in charge of the night watch last night to the office and scolded them bloody.Now he didn't care whether to scare the snake or not, and threatened that if the thief could not be found again, all the losses would be borne by them.

Among these unlucky ones, Yu Duo bears the brunt.Chen Li pointed at Yu Duo's nose and cursed: "Especially you, Yu Duo, if the things in the warehouse are stolen again, you and that kid will get out together!"

After the workers came out of Chen Li's office, they all looked dejected, especially Li Daneng, who kicked the concrete test blocks piled up at the door as soon as he came out.

Yu Duo also seemed a little absent-minded, but it wasn't because he was scolded by Chen Li, but because he was thinking about what happened last night.

The warehouse was stolen again last night, and Jiang Chiyu disappeared all night and didn't come back until early morning.

Did he really do it?

Yu Duo hadn't figured it out yet, and the situation escalated again in the afternoon.At that time, Yu Duo was working in Building No. 9, when a small worker from the cement team next door rushed to find him and told him that Jiang Chiyu and a group of people had fought in the open space behind the earthwork, and told him to go over and have a look.

The open space was full of dust, blocked by earthworks, and the fight did not attract too many people to watch.When Yu Duo arrived in a hurry, Jiang Chiyu was pressing Li Daneng to the ground and beating him.

Seeing Li Daneng, Yu Duo understood what was going on.

Jiang Chiyu was surrounded by seven or eight people, and he didn't care about the raindrops of fists falling on him. His movements were fierce and his eyes were cold, and he only had Li Daneng as his target in his eyes.

In the case of fewer enemies and more enemies, this is the best way to deter the opponent.

If the commotion continues, it might kill someone, Yu Duo stepped forward and kicked away the little worker who was about to attack Jiang Chiyu with a wooden stick, and shouted: "What are you doing? Stop!"

Yu Duo knew this little worker, he was Xiao Wu, Li Daneng's apprentice.Don't look at Xiao Wu's quietness on weekdays, his shot is so black, the wooden stick has a rusty iron nail on it, it's not a joke to hit him.

Hearing Yu Duo's voice, Jiang Chiyu didn't stop, but his fists intensified, beating Li Daneng until he screamed.

Seeing this, Yu Duo was furious: "Jiang Chiyu!"

Only then did Jiang Chiyu look up at him, then lowered his fist.

Seeing the opportunity, Li Daneng quickly jumped up with a carp, and broke free from Jiang Chiyu's grasp.Xiao Wu gave the other workers a wink, and several people immediately gathered around and pinned Jiang Chiyu to the ground with all their might.

Yu Duo glanced at Li Daneng like a dog in water, and asked, "Li Daneng, what do you mean?"

"Do you still have the face to ask?" Li Daneng breathed a sigh of relief, he forgot how embarrassed he was when he was pressed to the ground and beat him up, he rushed forward angrily, and stomped Jiang Chiyu's face into the mud, Knelt down and slapped him on the head: "Let you hit me! Let you hit me!"

Jiang Chiyu's eyes were so cold that he wanted to kill someone, he subconsciously wanted to get up and fight back, but he was pinned to the ground and couldn't move.

Li Daneng smiled, and fought harder and harder. In the end, Yu Duo stepped forward and grabbed his wrist, dragging him away: "It's almost ready, isn't it over yet?"

Aside from Li Daneng's younger brother, the few people gathered here are the workers who were going to patrol last night.Presumably, they ate and hung up early in the morning. They couldn't swallow this breath, and they didn't want to bear the loss of the warehouse, so they came to Jiang Chiyu, the culprit, to settle the score.

"Yu Duo, what's the matter with you?" Li Daneng rubbed his wrist that was almost dislocated, and turned to look at Yu Duo: "It's fine for this little thief to steal, but he even beats people up. Look at me. There is no good meat on my body!"

After Li Daneng finished speaking, the rest of the people also started to yell, pulling off their clothes to show Yu Duo their injuries.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhangyu sneered, and kicked hard on the back again.

These people said it innocently, but looking at the posture of bullying the few, they could tell who made the first move with their toes, but they didn't expect Jiang Chiyu to be such a stubborn stubble, so many people couldn't get along with him to what benefit.

Yu Duo did not deny what Li Daneng said, but looked down at Jiang Chiyu: "You forgot what I said to you?"

"I didn't!" Jiang Chiyu was pinned down on the ground, unable to move.Regardless of the pain that seemed to be falling apart, he raised his head and looked at Yu Duo stubbornly: "I didn't steal anything!"

Jiang Chiyu didn't lie to Yu Duo, during this time he has been working peacefully and never causing trouble.After lunch today, he was working normally in the shed, when suddenly a group of people came down from the roof and pushed him here.

From the mouths of these people, he learned about the recent robbery of the water and electricity warehouse.

Hearing his voice, Yu Duo lowered his head slightly, his eyes fell like a pool of cold water, following the sunlight at four o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as he met Yu Duo's eyes, Jiang Chiyu immediately understood.

Yu Duo looked at him exactly the same as last time in the hotel.Although he didn't say anything, the slightly downward eyes revealed the disdain and contempt that only he could see.

Yu Duo's eyes seemed to say: We both know who you are.

Perhaps in Yu Duo's view, Jiang Chiyu is just making excuses now.It turns out that after a person has been in the mud for a while, he is really no longer qualified to live an upright life.

"Brother Li will deal with the wire being stolen." Yu Duo withdrew his gaze and looked at Li Daneng in front of him: "Release the person and make trouble with the manager. No one looks good."

"Why." Li Daneng is an old man next to Chen Li, and he doesn't buy into his account: "Yu Duo, don't be with this kid, right? If I remember correctly, he lives in the same room as you?"

"I stole, do you have proof?" Yu Duo glanced at everyone, and laughed again: "A lot of people saw you guys fighting on the construction site, and when the time comes to really investigate, who cares?" Who are you? I think we should wait to pay the fine together."

When workers fight on the construction site, the team will be fined a large sum of money, and the money will eventually be passed on to the workers involved.

As soon as money was mentioned, Li Daneng really sobered up a lot, and he didn't dare to do it again.He turned around and kicked Jiang Chiyu again, and said viciously: "Wait and see, you boy, tighten your tail tightly, and don't let it fall into my hands again."

After speaking, he reluctantly let Jiang Chiyu go, and led him away cursing.

After Li Daneng left, Yu Duo didn't stay for long. He raised his foot to wipe the mud on the concrete and was about to go back.

"Wait a minute." Jiang Chiyu struggled to sit up, he tilted his head and spat out a mouthful of blood foam, then raised his head and said to Yu Duo: "I didn't do it."

"Then tell me." Yu Duo turned to look at Jiang Chiyu, and said, "What did you do last night?"

Jiang Chiyu couldn't answer.

Yu Duo sneered, didn't give him another chance, and turned to leave.

***

Although there is no evidence, the story of Jiang Chiyu's theft spread among the hydropower workers under the malicious revenge of Li Daneng and the others.Even people in other teams have heard a little bit about it.

After Jiang Chiyu returned to the work shed, he waited for Chen Li or Lao Zhou to come and drive him out of the construction site all afternoon, but there was no movement from above until after get off work.

Although it looked calm on the surface, Jiang Chiyu could clearly feel that the other workers were alienating him on the surface, excluding him in the dark, and talking about him behind the scenes.

After all, no one wants to be regarded as a raccoon dog at this time.Workers who have a history of theft at one site have a hard time getting jobs at the next.

When Jiang Chiyu returned to the dormitory at night, Yu Duo was there.The two of them could not talk about any friendship on weekdays, and in the afternoon they had conflicts again, making the atmosphere even more embarrassing.

In the small dormitory, the two went about their own business in silence, and no one paid attention to the other.Jiang Chiyu thought, probably he also believed that he was a thief, but there was no proof.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the appearance of Simao and Asheng broke this strange balance.Bringing cards and a bench, the two rushed in excitedly: "Brother Yu, let's play a game?"

They didn't expect Jiang Chiyu to be here today, his expression froze, and he backed out again: "Ah, let's wait another day."

"Why another day?" Yu Duo raised his eyelids and glanced at the two people, then sat up from his bed: "Come in."

When Yu Duo was talking, Jiang Chiyu from the upper bunk also looked over.

Si Mao and A Sheng looked at each other, and it seemed that it would be even more embarrassing to forcefully leave at this time.So they reluctantly put down their benches and formed a formation on the small square table.

Perhaps because of Jiang Chiyu, the "thief", Simao and Asheng were very uncomfortable. The three of them sat around the table, playing poker in a tragic atmosphere of migrant workers asking for wages.

Due to the environment in which he grew up, Jiang Chiyu learned to read words and expressions from an early age. He got up, put on his coat, got out of bed and walked out.

Yu Duo didn't ask him where he was going, he was engrossed in staring at the cards in his hand, as if he didn't care about everything around him.

Seeing Jiang Chiyu walking away, Ah Sheng leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Did he really do it? It doesn't look like it."

"How do you say the old saying? What is it that you don't know what you know? Yes! You know what you don't know." Si Mao's defeat was decided, he put down the cards in his hand, and asked several questions in a low voice: "You say, He won't run away overnight, right? Or hide and cry? I really don't know what Brother Li thinks? Why don't you let him pack up and leave quickly..."

"Don't worry about disappearing." Yu Duo glanced at the direction where Jiang Chiyu was leaving, and threw a straight straight with a blank expression.
