1960, he gave too much(1/3)
In the old office, Liu Shufen was also confused by Zhao Junbo's operation.
Seeing Zhao Junbo crying into tears, Liu Shufen was also curious and said: "I say Junbo, if you miss Liu's mother, come back more often. Isn't it just a matter of going abroad? After you return home, just remember to come often."
"Yeah." Zhao Junbo didn't know what to say at this moment.
Returning to Haitian Welfare Home this time, Zhao Junbo felt like he had been reborn, and he seemed to see many of himself in the young faces of these children in the home.
Now that he has thought about it more clearly, he is no longer burdened with many things.
After sniffing, Zhao Junbo took out a thick envelope from his pocket, handed it to Liu Shufen and said, "Mother Liu, I may not be able to send you money often in the future. You should keep the money first."
"What is this for?" Liu Shufen asked with some confusion when she saw Zhao Junbo stuffing the thick envelope into herself.
"You take the money first." Zhao Junbo gasped and tried to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes. Then he stood up and said with some reluctance: "I have to go. Mother Liu, take care of yourself."
"Are you leaving now?" Seeing that Zhao Junbo was in a hurry to leave, Liu Shufen quickly stood up and said, "I heard you were coming. Mother Liu notified the chef in the cafeteria to make your favorite braised pork."
Come on, stay for lunch?"
"No." Zhao Junbo's eyes were filled with tears and he was choking as he said, "It's rare that Mother Liu still remembers my favorite braised pork. That's enough."
After the words fell, Zhao Junbo turned around and walked out the door.
The many children from the orphanage who gathered at the door were also overwhelmed by the unexpected situation.
Seeing Zhao Junbo coming, everyone also gave way.
When Officer Wang and Lu Weiwei took one look, they immediately followed him alertly, while Gu Chen stayed in the office to deal with the aftermath.
"Xiao Yuan, you go too and wait for me in the car." Gu Chen said.
"Yes." Yuan Shasha nodded and quickly followed the others and left the office.
At this moment, many children from the orphanage crowded at the door dared to take a few steps into the office to observe the specific situation in the office.
"Officer Gu, what...what's going on? Are you leaving just now? I was planning to ask Junbo to stay for lunch, but he is..."
"He is too busy and has to catch the bus." Gu Chen said.
"But... we're not in a hurry right now?" Liu Shufen looked anxious. It seemed that the child she hadn't seen in nearly 20 years had just arrived at the orphanage not long ago. Everyone just chatted about daily life, and the child was about to leave in a hurry.
Yes, although Zhao Junbo was already a middle-aged man at this time, to Liu Shufen, he was still just a child.
Gu Chen also smiled slightly and quickly explained: "Zhao Junbo was originally going to leave today, but he thought that after leaving, he might not be able to send money to the orphanage, or it would be more troublesome to send money."
"So he specially chose to rush to the Haitian Welfare Institute early in the morning to hand over the money to you personally, which can be regarded as settling his worries."
"Is this... like this?" Gu Chen was also stunned at what he said.
The white-haired Liu Shufen didn't know what to do at this time.
She quickly pushed aside the children blocking the door and came to the corridor. She watched Zhao Junbo leave the orphanage gate and disappeared from her sight, escorted by Officer Wang, Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha.
Liu Shufen felt a sore nose and said aggrievedly: "Is something wrong with this child?"
"No, he just wants to work abroad." Gu Chen said.
Liu Shufen sniffed, glanced at Gu Chen, and said, "Officer Gu, don't lie to me. Although I haven't seen this kid Zhao Junbo for almost 20 years, I brought him up after all.
"
"Looking at his expression just now, I knew that he must have committed a crime outside. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come with you police."
Hearing Liu Shufen's words, Gu Chen couldn't help but be stunned. He felt that Dean Liu Shufen had obviously discovered something?
After all, before everyone came to Haitian Welfare Institute to investigate Zhao Junbo, they had many communications with Director Liu Shufen.
It also investigated Zhao Junbo’s childhood experiences and various personalities.
Of course Liu Shufen is not stupid. The police came to Haitian Welfare Home to investigate Zhao Junbo's information, and now they brought Zhao Junbo to Haitian Welfare Home, saying they came to see her one last time.
Dean Liu Shufen felt something was wrong as soon as she heard this.
In addition, Zhao Junbo cried so sadly just now. As Liu's mother, Liu Shufen naturally knew that Zhao Junbo must have committed something, and this time it was quite serious.
With a heavy sigh, Liu Shufen wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with choked sobs: "Zhao Junbo, this kid, has his own fatal flaw."
"From the day you came to the Haitian Welfare Institute to find me, I knew that this kid Zhao Junbo must have caused something big."
"He has not returned to Haitian Welfare Institution for so many years. I guess he has no shame in coming back."
"If he didn't make a big mistake, why didn't he come back? Why didn't he dare to come back? He was just afraid that I would see through it at a glance."
After sniffing, Liu Shufen looked at Gu Chen and asked again: "Officer Gu, tell me honestly, has Zhao Junbo committed a felony?"
Gu Chen hesitated for several seconds before shaking his head in denial.
"It's harmful, forget it." Seeing that Gu Chen also started to hide it from her, Liu Shufen knew that everyone was thinking about her, so she accepted it calmly:
"If you don't want to say it, then don't say it, but I still want to thank you. Thank you for letting him come to the Haitian Welfare Institute to see me for the last time."
"My old bones won't last long. I just want to watch the children here grow up happily."
"I have been fighting for welfare all my life. I am tired and it's time for me to take a good rest."
After she finished speaking, Liu Shufen touched the head of a little girl next to her and led the little girl back to her office.
Gu Chen stood at the door, wanting to say something else.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But soon, the little girl walked to the door, glanced at Gu Chen secretly, and then carefully closed the door.
Gu Chen knew that this was what Liu Shufen meant.
So Gu Chen walked to the door and said softly: "Dean Liu, I'll leave first, please take care of yourself."
"Officer Gu, come here often when you have time. I'm a little tired, so I won't see you off."
"Okay." After hearing Liu Shufen's reply in the room, Gu Chen also echoed.
Then, under the eyes of many children in the corridor, he quickly walked down the stairs and walked towards the gate of Haitian Orphanage.
After reopening the car door and returning to the driver's seat, Gu Chen discovered that Zhao Junbo, who was sitting in the middle seat of the back row, had already burst into tears.
It seemed that from the moment he came out, Zhao Junbo never stopped crying.
This actually made Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha in the back row confused.
Seeing Gu Chen return to the car, Officer Wang continued to remind him: "Hey, Zhao Junbo, have you cried enough? How can a man be crying?"
"Forget it." Gu Chen also interrupted Officer Wang's lecture and said slowly: "Liu Shufen has already guessed it."
"Guess...guessed it? Guessed what?" Lu Weiwei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but froze when she heard this.
Gu Chen sighed, looked at Zhao Junbo in the mirror in the car, and said helplessly: "I guess something might have happened to Zhao Junbo. After all, we came to Haitian Welfare Institute to investigate Zhao Junbo, and we also discussed Zhao Junbo with Dean Liu Shufen.
character.”
"But now, there are so many of us policemen accompanying Zhao Junbo to Haitian Welfare Home. Regarding Zhao Junbo's reaction, Director Liu Shufen is not stupid. How can she not know?"
"Ah?" Hearing what Gu Chen said, Yuan Shasha suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and quickly said: "Wouldn't that be exposed? If I had known, I would have followed my senior brother's wishes and just looked at the Haitian Orphanage at the door.
"
"Forget it." Gu Chen also shook his head, then turned to look at Zhao Junbo and reminded: "Dean Liu Shufen wishes you good luck. She thanks you for your contribution to Haitian Welfare Institute."
"What else did she say?" said Zhao Junbo, who sniffed and had tears on his face.
Gu Chen said casually: "She asked you to actively cooperate with our work, so should you tell us what you know now?"
"I……"
"Alas! We made an agreement in advance. We promised you to come to Haitian Welfare Institute and see Director Liu Shufen for the last time. And you must tell us the clues you know. Don't change your mind at the last minute."
He was also afraid that Zhao Junbo might change his mind temporarily, so Officer Wang felt it was necessary to remind him.
Zhao Junbo nodded silently and said with relief: "I will handle the things I promised you."
"Then tell us now, who is in Wangchao Town dealing with contraband with unknown gangs outside?" Gu Chen asked.
"Do you remember that hermit?" Zhao Junbo raised his head and said.
"Hermit?" Yuan Shasha, who was sitting next to Zhao Junbo, hesitated for two seconds and said quickly: "I know, isn't it that Zhou Zheng? He is also an outsider and has been living in seclusion in Wangchao Town for some time."
"I remember that he was still a small internet celebrity and often shared his reclusive life." Lu Weiwei also said.
Zhao Junbo nodded slightly: "Yes, I have been in contact with him and found that he is actually not a simple person."
"On the surface, Zhou Zhengming is a self-media creator who likes to live in seclusion, but in fact, this is just his cover."
"How do you say that?" Officer Wang also heard that there was something wrong in Zhao Junbo's words, so he quickly asked again.
Zhao Junbo had fulfilled his wish at this moment and did not want to hide anything anymore, so he said slowly: "Zhou Zheng is a hermit. This is just an illusion. He actually has other plans in Wangchao Town."
"Moreover, he has always wanted to find a partner to start a business with him, and he once took the initiative to find me."
"Because he knows that I have quite a lot of connections in Wangchao Town, so when we were drinking and chatting in his cabin, he hinted to me if I wanted to do something that would make a lot of money?"
"I didn't know what he meant at the time, so I asked him in a roundabout way. He said that he had channels and had production bases in Wangxian Valley and other places."
"But Zhou Zheng couldn't do it on his own, and he didn't really trust others. He just wanted to drag me into trouble, and he tried various methods to test the idea."
With a heavy sigh, Zhao Junbo added: "Although I, Zhao Junbo, am a scumbag and a scoundrel, I still have my own bottom line on some things."
"I don't want to touch the kind of business Zhou Zheng mentioned at all. Moreover, I also warned him not to cause trouble in Wangchao Town and advised him to take care of himself."
