As night falls, the capital city is immersed in dusk.
Li Weidong solved a small problem on the drawing with Cao Cao in the repair shop, stretched and walked out of the repair shop.
Looking at the dimly glowing street lights on the road, Li Weidong fell into hesitation.
Should I go to Ding Qiunan's dormitory now, or go back to the dormitory guest house and let Liang Ladi pay the debt?
After hesitating for a moment, Li Weidong felt that it was a serious matter to ask for the account.
As for Ding Qiunan, you can wait until you settle the account with Liang Ladi before going there.
After making up his mind, Li Weidong gathered his collar and walked along the dim road to the guest house.
At this time, the ground was already frozen, and it made a crunching sound when stepped on.
Suddenly, Li Weidong stopped, his expression became solemn, and he quietly stretched his hands to his waist.
"Snapped!"
A black light struck in the distance. Even though Li Weidong's five senses were now far beyond those of ordinary people, he had to bend down in an awkward posture to avoid it.
Whoosh, he pulled out the pistol from his arms, his pupils shrank slightly, held his breath, and aimed at the swaying grove in the distance.
Ta Ta Ta.
A rush of footsteps came from the woods. The footsteps became increasingly blurred and finally disappeared deep into the woods.
Li Weidong put his finger on the trigger and took out the flashlight from his pocket with his other hand.
Snap.
Bright beams of light disperse the darkness in the grove.
Li Weidong was very nervous. He searched carefully and found out that the criminal had left, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned off the flashlight, leaned against the tree trunk, and waited for more than ten minutes to make sure that there was no more noise coming from the vicinity, and then walked out of the woods with some disappointment.
I searched the blue brick floor with a flashlight and found a black projectile from the cracks in the bricks.
The jet-black and shiny projectiles emitted a faint cold light under the light of the snow-white flashlight.
Li Weidong thought for a moment, took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket, and pinched the projectile through the gloves.
The projectile is as big as a golf ball and feels heavy in the hand.
This thing should be a hidden weapon.
Yes, projectiles are also a type of concealed weapon.
The range and impact of projectiles are far inferior to those of throwing concealed weapons such as throwing knives.
However, projectiles are easy to carry, and the flying sound of projectiles is smaller than that of arrows, making them difficult to detect and dodge.
These are superior to ordinary bows and arrows, and they are also the most dangerous of all hidden weapons.
It is said that Erlang Zhenjun, who is beside the emperor, uses this kind of weapon.
It's just that he is a god, so he must be like a god. The slingshot he uses is made of gold, and the projectiles are made of silver.
Holding the projectile, Li Weidong murmured to himself: "This person is really good at it."
In this era, there are people everywhere holding slingshots to shoot sparrows. Even if they walk struttingly on the street with a slingshot, they will not arouse the suspicion of others.
If such a large projectile hit the skull with the force just now, the red and white ones would definitely scatter all over the floor.
It's just that the trajectory of the projectile after it flies out is unstable. Anyone who can confidently use this concealed weapon must be a good player.
The man missed a hit and immediately turned around and ran away without any hesitation, which is enough to illustrate this point.
Li Weidong thought for a long time, but he couldn't remember anyone he knew who had this ability.
It seems that we need to investigate carefully.
Being stared at by such a person is like being stared at by a poisonous snake.
Li Weidong put the projectiles into his pocket with a white glove, straightened his collar, and walked towards the guest house.
When he reached the door of the room, Li Weidong slowly stopped and coughed twice.
Sure enough, a figure curled out from the shadows.
This person was none other than Liang Ladi, who had been waiting for nearly half an hour.
Liang Ladi followed Li Weidong into the house, closed the door and began to take off her clothes.
"Brother, it's so late. You know I'm waiting for you here. What's the point of talking to an old man?"
"Of course we're talking about work," Li Weidong said casually, thinking about what happened just now.
“Work is not as fun for me.”
Liang Ladi chuckled twice and rushed over.
in the future.
Liang Ladi stared at Li Weidong for a long time, frowning.
"What's wrong?" Li Weidong was a little frightened by her stare, so he sat up and put on his cotton-padded jacket.
Liang Ladi tilted her head, thought for a long time, then suddenly stared and said: "Brother, have you captured Ding Qiunan?"
Good guy, can you see this?
Li Weidong was a little amazed at Liang Ladi's observation skills. His performance just now was no weaker than before.
More than an hour!
That's it, you can still see it.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. Have you forgotten our agreement?" Li Weidong said with a serious face.
Liang Ladi shrank her neck: "Why are you so angry? I'm just telling you, I won't tell others."
She seemed to have remembered something, and half of her body came over, and she leaned into Li Weidong's ear and whispered: "Brother, tell me, which one of us is the prettiest?"
Li Weidong chuckled, reached out and pinched her chin: "Of course it's you."
"I don't believe it! She is a little girl, and I am already an old lady now." Liang Ladi's eyes were shining with unconcealable joy, but the corners of her mouth were depressed.
"Bah."
That cute little touch made Li Weidong couldn't help but come up and take a bite.
"What's the matter, are you jealous?"
"She is an iceberg beauty and the beauty of a machinery factory. I am jealous."
As Liang Ladi said this, she caught Li Weidong's hand: "However, my sister is no worse than her at all."
While talking, Liang Ladi turned back to being the guest.
Half an hour later.
Li Weidong narrowed his eyes comfortably. Sure enough, only with competition can progress be achieved.
Liang Ladi arched her body beside her and said with a blushing face, "Well, I'm no worse than that girl Ding Qiunan."
Speaking of this, Li Weidong turned over, looked into her eyes and asked, "How did you guess it?"
"Oh, you are always distracted every time. Even a fool can see that there is something on your mind." Liang Ladi smiled brightly: "What can a great director like you have to worry about? It must be a woman."
"."
Li Weidong never expected that Liang Ladi would detect the abnormality because of this.
Sure enough, the little widows are smart!
Thinking of this, Li Weidong pondered for a moment and asked: "What practitioners are there in your machinery factory?"
"Lian Jiazi?" Liang Ladi was a little confused, her mouth wide enough to swallow the egg.
Gudu.
She swallowed her saliva, widened her eyes and said, "Brother, what age are we in now? How can there be any practitioners?"
"Even if there was, it would have been before liberation."
Before liberation. If that person was only in his twenties before liberation, it is possible that he is only in his forties now.
"That's right before liberation. Anyway, we are not interested now. Come and listen." Li Weidong said with a smile.
Liang Ladi rolled her eyes and pouted: "This can be considered information. According to what you said, the relationship between the two of us is purely transactional, without a trace of emotion, so I can't give it to you for free."
"Okay, tell me, what do you want?"
"Um"
Liang Ladi thought for a moment and said, "How about half a pound of white rabbit toffee?"
Half a pound of White Rabbit toffee cost at least more than one yuan, but Li Weidong did not hesitate.
"Okay, I'll buy it for you tomorrow."
"No, I don't believe what you said, we have to pull the hook."
Speaking, Liang Ladi raised her little thumb.
Li Weidong smiled and shook his head, stretched out his little finger and gave it a tick.
"Pull the hook, hang yourself, and don't change for a hundred years. Whoever changes is the bastard."
After singing and laughing, Liang Ladi sat up and said slowly: "I also heard what my master said. Before liberation, the machinery factory was the property of the Liu family. In order to prevent workers from causing trouble, the Liu family specially built a factory protection team.
, the factory protection team is full of masters, especially the captain of the factory protection team Hu Sanshou. He once met an expert in Huling and learned unique hidden weapon skills. He is especially good at using slingshots.
The external bullets were all fired. One person once killed seven or eight workers in a row."
Slingshot Li Weidong's expression became solemn: "Then where is Hu Sanshou now?"
"Who knows! After the public-private partnership of the machinery factory, out of fear of workers' retaliation, the factory protection team was disbanded on the spot, and Hu Sanshou and those team members were missing."
After saying that, Liang Ladi yawned, stood up from the bed, and put on her clothes.
"Brother, no more chatting, I have to go back and take care of a few children."
After Liang Ladi left, Li Weidong was no longer in the mood to go to Ding Qiunan's dormitory.
Obviously, the person who attacked him was most likely Hu Sanshou.
It's just that I don't know Hu Sanshou at all, let alone have any grudges. Why would Hu Sanshou do this?
Sudden.
Li Weidong sat up from the bed all of a sudden, and a voice came out of his throat: "Deputy Director Wang!"
How careless, how careless did you forget this new enemy you made?
Ding Qiunan is the daughter-in-law appointed by Deputy Factory Director Wang. Now that he has taken her away, she will definitely not let it go.
For people like this who came from before liberation, even if they receive new education, it is still difficult to understand the old ideas in their bones.
To deal with an enemy, the first thing that comes to mind is to hire someone to kill someone.
Hu Sanshou is the killer!
Li Weidong originally planned to take care of Deputy Director Wang after a while.
Now it seems that I still underestimated the reaction speed of Deputy Factory Director Wang.
At this moment, in a dilapidated house on the outskirts of Beijing.
Deputy Director Wang was pacing back and forth in the yard with his hands behind his back.
The anxiety on his face was enough to explain his mood at the moment.
Li Weidong was a well-known figure in the ministries and commissions. If Hu Sanshou was caught by mistake, he would be in big trouble.
"Old Wang, why are you spinning so hard? It makes me dizzy."
Liu Xiulan took a dry pipe, puffed twice, exhaled a cloud of white smoke, and her eyes were filled with pleasure.
Stopping and looking at Liu Xiulan's appearance, Deputy Director Wang felt sick.
"Do you think Hu Sanshou might have lost his hand?"
Liu Xiulan slowly opened her eyes and pursed her lips: "What nonsense are you talking about! Hu Sanshou has been with our family since before liberation, and he has never failed to do anything. Otherwise, why do you think he is called Hu Sanshou? He has
Three hands, even if one is lost, there are still two."
Although Liu Xiulan was very sure, Deputy Factory Director Wang was still a little worried.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
"Hu Sanshou should be back. I'll open the door."
"There's no need to open the door. What Sanshou dislikes the most is walking through the main entrance." Liu Xiulan glanced at Deputy Factory Director Wang with contempt.
If her reputation hadn't been so bad in the neighborhood, she wouldn't have married such a useless man.
Deputy Director Wang was dubious, as there was no one who wouldn't leave the door, but he still stopped.
He knew Liu Xiulan, if he opened the door by himself now, Wang Xiulan would definitely take the opportunity to scold him.
Whoosh.
Only a faint sound was heard on the wall. The next second, Deputy Factory Director Wang's eyes were dazzled and he couldn't help but close his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Hu Sanshou in a black outfit standing in front of him.
Liu Xiulan said proudly: "Well, what I said is right."
"As expected, he is a practicing master." Deputy Director Wang was convinced this time. The wall was three meters high. Hu Sanshou lightly jumped down, and there was no sound of landing. It was really beyond his imagination.
Liu Xiulan became even more proud when she heard this. She puffed up her chest, looked at Hu Sanshou and said, "How is it? You've killed that boy named Li?"
"No, no, I missed it." Hu Sanshou's voice was like a broken gong, especially penetrating in the dark night.
"Now that it's done, I'll give you the remaining balance. Why did you miss it?"
Liu Xiulan reached into her pocket to feel for the money. Halfway through, she realized what she was doing, raised her head, and looked at Hu Sanshou in surprise.
"You are a practicing master, and Li Weidong is just a young boy in front of you. How can you deal with him?"
"I thought so before I took action again, but"
Hu Sanshou still felt a little incredible when he thought about the situation at that time.
Projectiles are his specialty hidden weapon. They are fired from a special slingshot and make no sound at all.
After all these years, he has never failed.
He couldn't understand why Li Weidong suddenly turned sideways to avoid the projectile attack when he was walking with his back.
Does that kid have a pair of eyes behind his back?
No, it's still impossible.
In order to be safe, Hu Sanshou also deliberately chose to do it in the dark. Under the cover of night, the black projectiles could not be detected by the naked eye.
Seeing Hu Sanshou's silence, Liu Xiulan suddenly became furious: "Old Hu, have you been too idle these years and forgotten all your previous skills?"
Hu San lowered his head with his hands and said nothing, but put his fingers into his pocket.
Deputy Factory Director Wang quickly smoothed things over: "A thousand-mile horse can stumble. Lao Hu is unlucky this time. He will definitely be able to deal with that kid Li Weidong next time."
"Huh, that's best, otherwise, you'll have to pay back the deposit."
Liu Xiulan raised her head and said in a strange tone: "Our Liu family's money is not that easy to get."
"Madam, don't worry, I will choose a better time next time and I will ensure that I won't miss it!" Hu Sanshou said through gritted teeth.
"It's best this way, Lao Hu, you can't ruin your reputation by yourself."
Without saying a word, Liu Xiulan left the courtyard with Deputy Director Wang.
Hu Sanshou returned to the house and pulled out a shotgun from under the bed in the back room.
The rusty old shotgun on the barrel exuded a cold aura under the light. His eyes narrowed slightly and the corners of his mouth raised a trace of ferocity.
