Envy1(1/2)

2.

November 28th.

Kang Dan played the movie on the computer, but he almost didn't watch it. The volume was also turned very low, so small that he could hear the sounds outside the headphone cover. Yesterday's insomnia made Kang Dan feel a little drowsy, but it did not affect his attention - Kang Dan kept paying attention to He Changjin in the seat opposite.

He Changjin's face cannot be seen, so he can only judge what he is doing through his voice.

He Changjin sat in front of the computer opposite as always, but the two children did not follow him today.

Through yesterday's call, Kang Dan guessed that He Changjin might have made big moves in the past few days. Kang Dan, who had been doing nothing for several consecutive days, rarely discovered something that aroused his curiosity and made him interested. Kang Dan didn't want to miss even a little bit.

Kang Dan was nervous and nervous, and wanted to hear something from behind the two monitors placed back to back.

As a result, almost two hours later, He Changjin didn't do anything that people care about. Kang Dan couldn't help but wonder, could he have negotiated with people through chat software? Or did he not need to participate in this matter at all? Tsk, wouldn't that be too boring?

While thinking about it, Kang Dan raised his eyes and wanted to secretly take a look at what He Changjin was doing, he suddenly found a woman standing in the center of an Internet cafe, looking around.

At the age of 20, he has curled hair into wavy curls and likes to place his hands in front of him and carry his bag together.

Kang Dan had seen this posture and appearance countless times. Kang Dan recognized it at a glance. It was either someone else or Kang Ling standing there.

"Tsk, I found this."

Kang Dan muttered, hurriedly checked out and got off the plane, turned around and walked quickly towards Kang Ling in the opposite direction.

Maybe he was discovered. Before Kang Dan walked out of the Internet cafe, he heard Kang Ling's voice behind him: "Hey! Don't run away! Wait a moment-"

Kang Dan did not look back, and ran down the stairs and entered the crowd on the street. Kang Ling could not catch up with Kang Dan's speed. After chasing for a few meters, he fell far behind and had to give up.

On the other side, He Changjin didn't notice the changes here at all and was still playing games. Not long after, He Changjin's phone rang, and he took out his cell phone and answered the phone.

"Hey? Oh, it's you. Yes, I understand. Is the Asakusa Coffee Shop? I'll go now."

Then he stood up from the sofa and left.

Half an hour later.

The glass door of Asakusa Coffee Shop was pushed open, and He Changjin walked in with the sound of bells on the door.

“Welcome.”

Passing by the counter, He Changjin walked straight to the store.

When he walked in the door and walked to the third seat beside the window, He Changjin silently recited the location notified on the phone in his heart.

As soon as I walked around the counter, I saw a person sitting in the designated place, drinking leisurely.

Usually when I meet and discuss business with people, I am basically at the dining table. I am suddenly called to the coffee shop, and I feel a little uncomfortable. He Changjin sat down opposite the man with a little nervousness. After ordering a cup of coffee to send the waiter, He Changjin looked at the person in front of him carefully.

The public face, neat short hair, ordinary shirts and jeans, give people the feeling that they are just ordinary people who will forget when they look at each other after a glance.

"You are He Changjin."

It seemed as if the man was waiting for He Changjin to look at him. Almost as soon as He Changjin put a normal label on him in his heart, the man immediately spoke. The timing was just right.

He Changjin was a little worried and hesitated whether to speak--he had never revealed his name on the phone.

"Don't worry - yes, we did a simple background check on you, please forgive me. But this is all necessary. After all, we also do business and always have to consider the security of each business."

"Even if it is exposed, it won't involve me, right?"

"No, as I said before. We are professionals. Professionals will not leave clues that can be traced. Oh, by the way, the only possible situation is that you often ask why you suddenly have so much money in your account. You can just say that your online banking is stolen. As long as you say that, they can't pursue further."

A guy who is not astonishingly beautiful said amazing things in a plain and casual tone.

"Then, when will it be done?"

“It’ll be fine tomorrow.”

"oh."

He Changjin nodded thoughtfully, thinking about what he had to ask, and then suddenly thought of something and asked, "What do you call me?"

The man avoided He Changjin's gaze, was silent for a moment, and said, "Just call me Lao Ma."

"Oh, your surname is Ma?"

The man slowly squinted his eyes and grinned, smiling without saying a word, without comment.

After confirming the transaction treaty again, Lao Ma stood up and planned to leave. However, He Changjin still looked uneasy and uneasy.

Seeing this, Lao Ma smiled without warning and said, "Do you want to go with me? I can let you visit my workflow for free."

He Changjin widened his eyes in surprise: "Really?"

"Yeah. No problem."

"But...this..."

"I will start working tomorrow at 9:00 tomorrow morning. If you are interested, see you tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Lao Ma left slowly.

He Changjin stayed there alone, and in a complicated mood, he drank the almost cold coffee in one sip and left.

The glass door jingled and closed behind He Changjin who was walking by. If He Changjin moved his neck a little and looked to his left, he could see Kang Dan, who was sitting in a seat not far from his position just now, was looking at him who was gradually walking away from the street with his light.

The next day, at 9:00 am.

He Changjin was nervously paced back and forth in the alley opposite Quexi's apartment, stretching his neck and looking around.

After a few minutes, a gray Volkswagen car parked downstairs of Quixi Apartment, and the back box bounced open at the same time. After that, He Changjin could see Lao Ma get out of the car. Lao Ma was dressed a little different from yesterday. He wore a blue baseball cap and a blue old work clothes with a little oil stain.

He Changjin walked quickly to him. When Lao Ma saw him, he waved with a smile.

"You are so guilty." Lao Ma said in an innocent tone.

He Changjin showed an expression of eating sour things.

Lao Ma took out a handheld kit from the trunk and walked ahead first. He Changjin had to keep up. From behind Lao Ma, the words "Hailan Property Management" printed on the work clothes could be seen.

It's a disguise. I'm afraid this person has nothing to do with the property.

"I ask you, what are we doing?"

He Changjin looked at Lao Ma in confusion, not knowing what this abrupt question meant. After thinking about it for a while, he searched his head for a long time, but couldn't find a suitable vocabulary to describe his current actions.

"Be a thief." As if confirming that He Changjin had indeed heard his words, Old Ma turned his head slightly and looked directly at He Changjin's eyes for a few seconds. "There is no need to be whitewashed, we are just a thief."

He Changjin was speechless again.

"When you are a thief, the most taboo thing is guilty."

When the two walked through the glass window of the administrator at the entrance of the building, Lao Ma said as if no one was around.

"Once you feel guilty, even if others don't doubt you will start to feel suspicious. On the contrary, as long as you remain confident, people will be close to conditioned reflexes and feel that you have not done anything bad."

“It makes sense.”

When he arrived at the fourth floor, Lao Ma walked to Luo Jiansheng's door, put on his gloves, and took out a small keychain from his pocket. Lao Ma picked a random key and inserted it into Luo Jiansheng's door. He tried to twist it twice, but it didn't open it. No one could do it, Lao Ma changed the next one without hesitation. After changing three or four, the door cracked and bounced open.

Lao Ma took off his shoes casually as if he had walked into his own home, and casually found a pair of slippers and walked into the living room.

"The safest time period of the day is between nine and ten every day, which is safer than two or three in the morning. Unlike those thieves, we almost choose this 'golden time' when we are 'working'."

He Changjin did not understand the meaning of these words and wanted to ask why, but he did not want to seem too ignorant, so he did not ask in the end.

"This is the time when people are most cautious about the least attention to the surroundings, and it is also the time when people with work suddenly come home in a day. Simply put, it is almost no one notices us during this period. Even if they notice it, they will not give too much energy - humans are the most concerned about themselves every morning. As time goes by, they will gradually become "interested" in the surroundings after the morning.

"Oh, that's it." He Changjin hurriedly said.

"In contrast, if you choose to act at night, doing anything will make you suspicious. Not to mention you can hardly find a way to bypass the monitor at the entrance downstairs."

"Huh!? Have you been photographed when I came in just now?"

"Yeah, but that's OK. As long as you don't get caught, the only thing that surveillance can prove is that we have been there."

This time He Changjin understood completely, suddenly realized and said, "If the paintings recorded at night will be completely different."

"Resolution."

Lao Ma said while looking around in the living room, and finally his eyes were locked in Luo Jiansheng's bedroom, that is, the room where the computer was located.

Lao Ma walked over and sat directly on the floor next to the computer desk. He took out a screwdriver from his handbag and opened the main box neatly. Then, he took out a black rectangle with a large thumb joint from the handbag. It looked like a relatively large resistor.

"Here" Lao Ma pointed at the thing with his chin, "This is the most expensive part of your expenses."

Lao Ma applied some glue on it and glued it to the motherboard inside the chassis.

"Tsk" Lao Ma smacked his lips.

"What's wrong?"

"This guy doesn't even have a wireless network card on his computer. It's all the time. Forget it, I'll give him one for free today."

As he said that, Lao Ma took out a long strip of computer hardware with a metal shell and inserted it into the slot of the motherboard.

"After he finished it, except that he would feel that the next startup was a bit slow, there would be no change from before."

"He won't find out so many things?"

"No, these things are specially made. They won't report anything to the user on the screen, they will only work in the background. Of course, if he disassembles the computer tomorrow and sees it inside, then I can't blame me." Lao Ma said half-jokingly.

After returning everything to its original state, Lao Ma looked around the room and asked, "Didn't you touch anything?"
