After seeing off Liu Xiulan and Deputy Factory Director Wang, Hu Sanshou began to prepare the tools needed for action.
In addition to a shotgun, Hu Sanshou also pulled out a wooden box from under the bed.
The surface of the wooden box is mottled with vermilion paint, and it is covered with a layer of cowhide. The smooth cowhide has become lint-covered under the ravages of time, and it feels like a hard coarse rag to the touch.
Hu Sanshou's palms slid across the cowhide, a strange expression appeared on his face, he sighed, and after hesitating for a moment, he gently opened the wooden box.
????
Hu Sanshou felt that his mind was blank for a moment, and he subconsciously raised his hands.
In just a few breaths, the panic on his face suddenly disappeared without a trace, his neck moved slightly, and the cold muzzle of the gun was on his head.
"Friend, be careful of the gun going off."
Behind him, Li Weidong held the big black star, his finger on the trigger, and smiled: "Don't worry, my hand is always steady."
Hearing this familiar voice, Hu Sanshou's face darkened visibly.
Just now I was thinking about how to attack someone, but now they actually come to my door. This is really frustrating.
Hu Sanshou let out a long sigh: "Can you tell me how you found me? Even if I die, I don't want to be a fool."
"Stab it!"
Before he finished speaking, a dagger was inserted into the palm of Hu Sanshou.
The back of my hand was bleeding and veins were bulging, but I still stretched it into my pocket with determination.
"Wow!"
He saw the dagger being unceremoniously twisted on the back of his hand, and Hu Sanshou couldn't help but scream.
"If you move again, don't blame me for being rude."
Hu Sanshou has heard this kind of warning countless times since he was a child, but usually he doesn't pay attention to it and will even take the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
People who talk easily often dare not take action.
but.
The neat style of the man just now left a deep impression on him. Hu Sanshou believed that as long as he dared to move, the man would definitely pull the trigger without hesitation.
Just like that, Hu Sanshou turned his body slightly to the side, his fingers touched the edge of the pocket, and did not dare to move anymore. He froze in place with a funny posture.
This scene amazed the little policeman who rushed in behind him.
According to those old archives, Hu Sanshou was known for his ferocity. Before liberation, he once single-handedly rushed into the bandit's lair and rescued Mrs. Liu who had been kidnapped.
The archivist who wrote the records at that time was very good at writing. He used the poem "Kill a person in ten steps, leave no trace in a thousand miles" to describe Hu Sanshou's majesty.
However, such a powerful person was stopped so easily by Li Weidong.
The young policeman found it a bit incredible.
However, he was not careless. He waved his hand and told the comrades behind him to be prepared. If Hu San's hands were violent, they would empty the bullets in the magazine.
Li Weidong turned his head and signaled to the policeman to be calm, and then used a slight force on his wrist to let Hu Sanshou feel enough pressure.
"Hu Sanshou, who ordered you to assassinate me?"
This is the real reason why Li Weidong decided to take action.
Originally, after finding Hu Sanshou's whereabouts through Fatty Yu, Li Weidong reported the assassination to the police station without hesitation.
The police station sensed that the matter was serious and immediately set up a small task force headed by a police officer.
Li Weidong could have just left and left the matter of catching Bo Hu to the small police.
but.
Hu San's hand is just a knife, the most important thing is to find the person holding the knife.
The person who can now connect Deputy Factory Director Wang with this case is Hu Sanshou.
With the help of the police station, after finding Hu Sanshou's file records, Li Weidong immediately felt that it would be difficult to get him to tell the truth.
Hu Sanshou was adopted by the Liu family since he was a child, and he was as loyal to the Liu family as if he were a child.
Those who entered the world before liberation valued friendship the most, although this kind of friendship may seem ridiculous to future generations.
so.
The best way is to take advantage of his relaxation to force him to reveal the Liu family.
Unfortunately, Li Weidong still underestimated Hu Sanshou's loyalty.
Hu Sanshou smiled bitterly, shook his head, and let the barrel of the gun rub back and forth on his hair, with sadness in his voice.
"I know that I am already dead, and I don't want to be charged with selling out for glory before I die."
"In that case, what should I tell the old man when I get to the underworld?"
His look made it clear to Li Weidong that it was impossible to find a breakthrough with Hu Sanshou.
However, the small policeman refused to admit defeat and walked forward and said coldly: "Hu Sanshou, now is the new society. There is no underworld. The things you did are your own sins against the people. Only by confessing them honestly can we
Get leniency, I hope you don't hold on to it."
Hu San lowered his head with his hands, as if he didn't hear anything and said nothing.
"I'm talking to you, did you hear me?"
When the police officer saw this, he was a little anxious. He stepped forward and grabbed Hu Sanshou's collar and wanted to question Hu Sanshou, but was frightened by Hu Sanshou's cold eyes and trembled.
He has been in the police station for seven or eight years and has personally caught hundreds of criminals, many of them vicious. This is the first time he has been frightened by someone's look.
But being frightened like this, it seemed that he had lost face. The young policeman glanced behind him secretly, mustered up his courage, and stretched out his hand again.
"No need, this person won't give an explanation. You should take him back to the bureau first and then interrogate him slowly.
The key task now is to search the yard carefully from the inside out to find anything related to the Liu family."
Li Weidong's words gave the police officer a step forward. The police officer swallowed his saliva and waved his hands: "Old Liu, Old Zhang, handcuff him and take him back!"
Lao Liu and Lao Zhang stepped forward cautiously, as if they were afraid that Hu San's hands would suddenly become violent.
But at this time, Hu Sanshou seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit, and remained motionless, allowing them to handcuff him and tie him tightly with ropes.
Looking at Hu Sanshou who was tied up like a rice dumpling, Lao Liu and Lao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from their foreheads: "Team leader, shall we take him back now?"
"No need for now, keep him in the yard and look for someone to look at him."
"yes!"
Hu Sanshou was escorted to the yard, and Li Weidong, the small policeman and several other comrades began to search the house.
Li Weidong walked to the box first.
When they rushed in just now, Hu Sanshou was standing in front of the box. Maybe there was something important in the box.
Li Weidong took a deep breath and opened it gently.
There is only one sachet in the box.
The sachet is similar to the kind that women embroidered for their lover before liberation. It is made of red cloth and has the word "δΈ‰" embroidered with yellow silk thread.
Although it is packed in a box, the color of the sachet has long been dim, like a piece of red cloth that has been soaked by rain.
I took it to my nose and smelled it, but I didn't smell any fragrance.
"Did one of Hu Sanshou's best friends give this thing to him?"
When the policeman saw that Li Weidong was interested in the sachet, he came over and whispered.
"possible."
Li Weidong put the sachet into the box and closed the lid.
"Did you find anything?"
"No, except for a shotgun and a slingshot, this house is full of ordinary people's things." The policeman shook his head.
Thinking about it, Hu Sanshou was able to hide here for more than 20 years without being discovered by others. He must be extremely thoughtful and would not make mistakes in these small things.
After searching twice, no new clues were found, so the police officer had no choice but to order the team to close down.
At this time, people had gathered in front of Hu Sanshou's home. They felt a little weird when they saw Hu Sanshou wearing handcuffs.
"What's going on, Lao Hu?"
"What's wrong? Something must have happened. Did you see so many police comrades here?"
"I really can't tell. Lao Hu is usually very honest and kind. He is always willing to help anyone who has a problem."
"Who says otherwise? If he hadn't been too old, I would have introduced my niece to him."
Seeing Hu Sanshou being escorted into the jeep, the policeman stopped and said goodbye to Li Weidong.
"Brother Wei Dong, I will go to the briquette factory in the afternoon to investigate Hu Sanshou's situation in person, but I think the chance of finding useful clues is low."
"Now we can only do our best and let fate dictate. However, we don't need to be downcast. Paper cannot cover the fire. Sooner or later we will be able to find evidence of the Liu family's crimes."
Li Weidong patted the young policeman on the shoulder and said with a smile.
Having said that, Li Weidong has no hope of getting rid of Deputy Director Wang in the short term.
The Liu family has been able to hide for more than 20 years, so they must be fully prepared.
Just relying on the small police and others, it is probably difficult to find out the details of the Liu family.
Li Weidong could only entrust Fatty Yu again to pay attention to relevant clues.
At the same time, we are also prepared for a protracted war.
There are no clues on the Liu family's side, but there is new progress on Qin Huairu's side.
One day, Li Weidong finished his day's work and drove his jeep back to the courtyard. As soon as he walked to the backyard, he was stopped by Qin Huairu.
"Brother Wei Dong, please wait a moment. I have something to tell you."
It was after get off work, and the courtyard was extremely lively, with residents walking in from outside in twos and threes.
Li Weidong had no way to go to Jia's house to have an in-depth discussion with Qin Huairu, so he could only ask with a smile: "What's the matter? Let's talk about it here."
Although Qin Huairu felt that Li Weidong was a little too cautious, she still nodded and said: "I have been checking the affairs of Jia Zhang and Yan Bugui a while ago, but I didn't expect that I actually found out something about them."
Hearing this, Li Weidong also became energetic: "Have you caught the evidence?"
"That's not really true. I just found a miserable owner." Qin Huairu said.
"The Lord of Suffering?"
"Hey, who would like Mrs. Jia Zhang's appearance? Yan Bugui can't praise her like a flower." Qin Huairu said with sarcasm on her face: "Yan Bugui has been a matchmaker for so many years, so he has already developed his talk.
, that person was deceived by Yanbu Gui and spent two yuan. After meeting Jia Zhang, he knew that he had been deceived, and he clamored for his money back."
"How can the money that comes into Jia Zhang's hands be so easy to get back?"
"Not only did the man not get his money back, he was blackmailed by Jia Zhang for another five yuan."
Li Weidong was stunned after hearing this, "Good guy, it's a full seven yuan, more expensive than Qin Huairu. This Jia Zhang family really knows how to do business."
"He's not very popular, but he doesn't dare to report it to the police station. Otherwise, even if Jia Zhang is dealt with, he won't be able to escape."
Qin Huairu looked troubled: "That's the problem now. I can track Jia Zhang and find the place where she is fooling around with others, but I can't rush in. After all, I am a woman, not Jia Zhang and Yan Bugui."
opponent."
Li Weidong glanced sideways at Qin Huairu for a moment and said slowly: "Why didn't you report it to the police station?"
"I think so too, but if Mr. Jia Zhang is arrested and sentenced, there will definitely be a record of the crime. In the future, the jobs and marriages of Bangge, Xiaodang, and Xiaohuaihua will be affected." Qin Huairu also agreed.
The helpless face.
When she learned that Jia Zhang was doing these messy things, Qin Huairu almost fainted from anger.
If the Jia and Zhang family's affairs were exposed, the courtyard and even the entire neighborhood would look down on the Jia family.
Li Weidong used to think that Qin Huairu wanted to send the Jia Zhang family into the fence, but now he finally understood that Qin Huairu just wanted to catch the Jia Zhang family, and while driving the Jia Zhang family out of the courtyard, forced Jia Zhang
The family stopped to avoid thunderstorms in the future, which would affect the Jia family.
However, this idea is really too beautiful.
Jia Zhang is a person who loves money as much as his life. He finally found a good way to make a fortune. How could he give up so easily?
Li Weidong also knew that Qin Huairu was not a person who listened to advice, so he could only smile and said: "In this case, you go and talk to Jia Zhang first and persuade her."
"This is the only way now."
Qin Huairu sighed: "Forget it, don't think about this anymore. Brother Weidong, are you finished with your work at the machinery factory?"
Qin Huairu has already tasted the taste of meat. If she doesn't exchange meat with Li Weidong for a few days, she will feel uncomfortable all over.
In the past, when Li Weidong was in the poverty alleviation workshop, she could sneak into the studio to satisfy her cravings during work hours.
Li Weidong is in the machinery factory now. Even if he comes back, Yu Li is also at home, so she will have no chance to make a move.
Looking at Qin Huairu's dissatisfied eyes, Li Weidong laughed and said: "It's almost, in half a month, the production line will be completed. You have to be patient for now, and I will compensate you well when the time comes.
"
"Then you must not break your promise." Qin Huairu blushed with embarrassment and her eyes turned into crescent moons.
After chatting for a while, Li Weidong returned home with Qin Huairu's reluctant eyes on him as he was worried about residents passing by from time to time.
We haven't seen each other for a few days, everything is as usual at home, except that Yu Li's belly seems a little bigger.
"Brother Wei Dong, you're back!" Yu Li was cooking when she heard the door open and ran out.
Li Weidong hurriedly put down his canvas bag and approached him: "Slow down, be careful of the child."
"It's okay!"
Li Weidong hugged Yu Li and seemed to have thought of something.
He asked in a low voice: "According to the time calculation, the baby will be born in three months. Why don't you ask for maternity leave from the street office and stay at home to have a good rest."
"I have had this idea for a long time, but I was just concerned about Director Wang. As you know, the relief food has recently come out, and the streets are busy distributing food." Yu Li hesitated.
"Don't worry, I'll go talk to Director Wang. I'm sure she will understand."
Li Weidong chuckled.
This era is no different than later generations.
You can't do anything like forcing a pregnant female employee to go to work.
