Perte de contrôle précise - Chapitre 53
This time it was his turn to laugh. A few hundred yuan? You want to buy my clues? Dream on!
He said:
"If you help me find the bureau chief, you'll get credit for it. If you don't help me find him, I'll find him myself, and I'll tell the bureau chief that I contacted you."
He was taken aback, scrutinized him closely, and then fell silent.
How do I know you're real or fake? Are you trying to ruin me?
"Do I look like you? Have you seen me before? Do we have a grudge?"
He understood that the director was still hesitant, fearing a false report, so he said:
“Look, I’m just a migrant worker. I came to the city to earn money. If I’m not confident enough, and I go to the bureau chief to give false intelligence, won’t I get arrested? I’ll lose my job! Am I stupid?”
The director suddenly laughed:
"Since you understand so well, why didn't you tell me? Isn't it the same? Why bother going to the bureau chief?"
"You didn't give me enough money!"
How much do you want?
"I want 10,000. Do you have it? If you do, I'll report you to the police!"
The director remained silent.
He had no choice but to leave.
He regretted it; this time he wouldn't even get a few hundred yuan.
We piled red bricks onto the wall one by one with our hands. We watered the city's glory with our blood and sweat. The boss sold our blood and sweat and made a fortune. The city people enjoyed our blood and sweat and lived a comfortable life. Our faces turned black, our hands cracked, and our backs became hunched. But we could only count the little remaining value in our hands again and again, with bitterness and sweetness.
Foreman Huang, his face flushed and red, came running to the construction site to find him.
"Get the hell out of here! You caused trouble while doing renovations, and I took you in. How come you've caused trouble again? You're a leopard that can't stop eating shit! Whether the police come looking for you or not is your own business. Don't you dare bite others!"
He could no longer walk, and when he saw a police car with its lights on, his legs trembled uncontrollably.
He didn't know how he got into the construction site office. He was filled with regret. He thought that the director must have plotted against him. He was doomed this time!
As soon as he pushed open the door, the director immediately stood up, pushed him towards the door, and said:
"Hurry! The sooner the better!"
He was pushed into the police car by the station chief. Many people from the construction site ran over to see what was going on.
Once in the police car, the police chief said:
"I'm asking you one last time: how accurate are your leads? Telling me now might save your life, but once you're in the police station, you're dead!"
His tears flowed instantly:
"How could you do this? You scared me to death!"
"The bureau chief is in a hurry to see you, that's why I came to pick you up!"
"You picked me up like that? You scared me to death!"
He burst into laughter. Truly, one family doesn't know another's sorrows.
The director said:
"I heard you wanted to see me to report a case. On behalf of all the officers, I would like to express my gratitude to you."
He said:
"No need to thank me, I was just doing something good."
"Tell me your terms."
"I want 10,000 yuan for a clue. I'll pay if the case is solved, otherwise I won't pay."
"Ten thousand yuan is too much, I can't afford it."
"Eight thousand, that's the lowest I can go. I'm risking my life!"
The bureau chief lowered his head and thought for a while:
"Well then, I can only give you five thousand. Otherwise, there's nothing I can do. You have to understand that we don't have any money."
That night, Er Gouzi was arrested, and as expected, he was found to have committed three robberies on the road.
After that, he frequently worked at various construction sites. When he discovered clues, he would first report them to the police. After the criminals were arrested, he would work at the construction site for a few more days to avoid being discovered.
He would have been dead if he hadn't been carrying nothing with him that time.
He followed a bag snatcher, and in his haste, he ended up at the snatcher's place, where his accomplices caught him and beat him half to death before they began interrogating him about his intentions.
He said:
“The construction site boss owes me more than two thousand yuan in wages and refuses to pay me. Yesterday, he lost his phone, and I want to buy him a cheap phone as a gift so I can get my wages back.”
The group burst into laughter, and one of them said:
"You made up a pretty convincing story, but where's your money? I searched you and found nothing. What are you buying a phone for? You tried to scam me, but I'm going to cripple you today. Otherwise, you won't know that the King of Horses has three eyes!"
He quickly took off his shoes, dug out three hundred yuan from under the insoles, and handed it to them. They didn't say anything. Later, they gave him a woman's cell phone.
