Mystery Hunter

Chapter 32: can't go

Shao Lao Ruju's eyes seemed to see through the director's mind, he patted the director's shoulder lightly, and said with relief: "Old Wen, it's been so long, if he's still alive, that guy should He's eighty years old. He's already in the waning years of his life, a man with one foot in the loess, I think he shouldn't move."

Director Wen looked at Mr. Shao. As Mr. Shao's former apprentice, how could he not know what Mr. Shao was thinking. Don't look at what Shao Lao said, but in fact, I am afraid that I want to catch that person more than thousands or even tens of thousands of times. The reason why Shao Lao said this is to comfort his still stupid heart.

As a student, he naturally hopes that his teacher can enjoy his old age, but as a director, he does not want this head to rest. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come as soon as he learned the news of Shao Lao's return to China.

"It's not a matter of life and death." Shao Lao looked at Director Wen: "If you find any clues about him, call me back, just don't dislike my old arms and legs that can't run."

"How could..."

During the conversation between the two, they suddenly heard noises from outside the building. The two walked to the window to look, only to see on the roof of the opposite building, on the edge of the roof, a man dressed in clothes. Man in tank top and shorts. The floor is not high, only the sixth floor, but it is also 20 meters high.

"Immediately notify the nearby police." Shao Lao turned his head and walked outside.

It didn't take a moment for Shao Lao to come downstairs.

Old Shao walked forward while observing the man on the roof. From a distance, this person is around forty years old, his skin is dark, his complexion is old, and he looks like a working person. Shao Lao noticed that under the sunlight, there was something sparkling on his hand, which should be a ring.

Downstairs on the opposite side, the crowd of onlookers circled around. Shao Lao gradually understood what happened in the discussion of the people around him. It turned out that this person was called Hongbao, a resident of this building. A month ago, he received a text message from his son, saying that he and his friends had accidentally provoked the local black boss, and he had to pay 100,000 yuan to the boss. Only people will be released on the account, and they are not allowed to call the police or make any public announcements.

This is a very low-level fraudulent text message, but honest Hongbao believed in this scam, and honest Hongbao didn't even think about making a phone call to his son to verify.

But as an honest worker, his salary is only 3,000 yuan a month, and all the savings in the family are used to study for his son. How could he be able to collect 100,000 yuan in a short period of time. But in order to save his son, Hongbao couldn't take care of that much anymore. He looked for someone to borrow and borrow, and finally found a loan shark.

Hongbao just wanted his son to be safe.

He finally collected enough 100,000 yuan, and then hit the liar's account.

It was not until his son returned home from the summer vacation that Hongbao knew that it was nothing at all.

They immediately called the police, but more than a month had passed, and the 100,000 yuan had long since disappeared.

Hongbao owes a lot of debt, but he has no way to repay the loan shark. What he sees every day when he comes home is the scarlet "payment of debts", and there is not a piece of glass on the window of his house, because once it is pressed, it will be smashed by someone. His son complained that he was stupid, and his wife called him nothing.

The factory owner fired him, the neighbors kept gossiping about him, and the landlord wanted the house back.

Today, his wife and son returned to his parents' home, and he was completely alone.

He had no way to escape. The loan shark knew everything about him, even where his son went to school. He was forced to go to the roof.

If everything is irreversible, then he has only one death.

Those swindlers will never know that the 500,000 they deceived was called by the other party under what circumstances. These 100,000 may be wounds that take a lifetime to heal, a person who has been in the wind and rain for more than ten years, a broken family, and a living human life.

"Give it up, let it go." Elder Shao squeezed through the crowd with difficulty.

"Hey, what are you squeezing, old man, why are you jumping upstairs and downstairs in a hurry?" said a non-mainstream person with yellow hair.

Shao Lao ignored these words and walked to the front of the crowd.

Standing in front of the crowd were a few social youths, all of them shirtless and painted with dragons and phoenixes, as if they were afraid that others would not see the tattoos on their backs. One by one, they were smoking cigarettes, chatting with each other with hippie smiles, taking videos with their mobile phones, and even live broadcasts.

"Today, I'm going to show you people jumping from a building on a live broadcast." The guy with the dragon tattoo said, "Now, everyone thinks that they can jump, but they don't know how to jump. Let's look at this stupid~ Jump down. Brothers, what do you think?"

The guy with the scorpion tattoo said: "I've been standing on it for five or six minutes, and I've already jumped when I want to jump. I don't think this coward would dare."

Another guy with a tiger tattoo disagreed: "He is hesitating, you have to provoke him, otherwise how can he jump off?"

Saying that, the young man put his hands on his mouth like a trumpet, and shouted, "Jump, you just jump down, jump down, it's been so long, I've been waiting for a while, bro, what else? ."

Hongbao listened to the shouts of the boys downstairs. He was very upset at the moment. He really wanted to meet his wife and son before he died, but Hongbao knew that he was sorry for them. The sound of jumping down quickly also stings Hongbao's heart, the sound seems to come from the bottom of his heart.

That is the voice of the masses, and that is the best home for him.

He let go of his hand, as long as he leaned forward, he would jump from the 20-meter upstairs on the sixth floor, ending his stupid life.

The guy on the live broadcast laughed loudly: "Look at your majesty brother Tiger, let's get another wave of gifts..."

But before he could finish speaking, he grabbed the phone with one hand, and then smashed the phone heavily on the ground, causing the phone to shatter. The guy looked up along the phone, which was the hand of a somewhat shriveled old man. The guy with the dragon tattoo did not expect that an old man in his fifties or sixties would dare to mind his own business.

He reached out and pushed the old man.

The old man tightly clamped the boy's hand, turned back and shouted, "Don't jump first, don't accidentally injure innocent people, and wait until I finish these things."

Hongbao didn't expect an old man to fight below, and he grabbed the railing again.

This old man is Shao Lao.

Shao Lao grabbed the boy's hand with one hand, and swung the other hand round and gave the boy a big mouth. This mouth was so loud that it blinded everyone around him. How could the young man think that an old man would hit him on the mouth? He covered his face and was speechless for a long time.

And his few friends also stared at the old man blankly, and no one spoke.

Mr. Shao didn't look at these people, but looked up at Hongbao: "Hongbao, if I remember correctly, what is your name? What do you think you are?"

Hongbao looked at the old man with an inexplicable kindness on his face.

Hongbao shouted: "As for, why not? For the 100,000 yuan, now my family is ruined, and my wife and son don't want me anymore. What's the point of my life, it's better to let me die!"

Shao Lao smiled and said, "Who said your wife and son don't want you anymore, how many years have you been married?"

"It's been almost thirty years." Hongbao replied.

Shao Lao nodded: "You repair the car."

Hongbao asked, "How do you know?"

"You can tell by looking at your hands. There is a lot of oil embedded in your skin in your handprints. If you hadn't been tinkering with oil all the time, it wouldn't be like this. Look at your shoes and see if you can see anything." Shao Lao shouted up.

Hongbao looked at the shoes on his feet, but he didn't see anything.

"What? What's wrong with my shoes?" Hong Bao asked.

"You don't wash your shoes by yourself." Shao Lao said with a smile: "Your wife does not forget to brush your shoes when she returns to her parents' house, as well as your clothes, they are all washed for you. Yes, do you really think it's your wife who doesn't want you? What kind of misfortune are you, and if you are all unfortunate, then what am I?"

Only then did Hongbao notice that his shoes and clothes were really clean.

"Your wife went back to her mother's house to find a way." Shao Lao said again: "Don't worry, if you die, you will leave the mess to your wife and son. You still have a family who loves you. look at me!"

"What's wrong with you?" Hong Bao shouted.

Shao Lao turned around, his voice was a little hoarse, but he still shouted: "I am fifty-six years old this year, my wife died when I was thirty, and I even have a child. No, you say, you still have family, what do I have. When you reach my age, you will understand that everything is fake, and your family is real. "

"Come down." Shao Lao shouted: "Go home and clean up the house, your wife and children will be back soon."

"Come down, don't seek death."

"Living is more important than anything else."

Under Shao Lao's words, more and more people were discouraged.

Hongbao climbed over the railing, he felt that the old man was right, he didn't have nothing.

When Hongbao went downstairs, the old man was nowhere to be seen.

Shao Lao is on a small road at the moment.

And there were a few gangsters who followed Mr. Shao, who were the same people who had broadcast live before.

"Old man, are you impatient, and you don't want to ask, who am I, and what is my name in this film." The guy with the dragon tattoo stopped Lao Shao.

Shao Lao asked, "Are you guys loan sharks? I noticed that there are traces of red paint on your hands. You painted the walls of his house."

"You dead old man, what happened to us?" the little gangster said, "It is only natural to pay off debts, is this illegal?"

Shao Lao shook his head: "If it exceeds four times the bank's interest rate in the same period, you will break the law. I don't know what your interest rate is, but I know that your current behavior is breaking the law."

"Then you catch me, haha!" Several people laughed.

The result can be imagined, in the laughter of several people, Director Wen arrived with the police.

Shao Lao looked at the disgraced people: "I don't want to ask, who am I, and what is my name in this film."

Director Wen smiled: "Teacher, you are still so humorous."

Shao Lao also laughed, and when he reached into his pocket, he took out a card from his pocket.

"Can't go."

Old Shao looked serious.
