"No need to thank you, but you have to remember to pay back the money."
Qin Jian smiled and patted the back of the girl's hand gently.
"But don't worry, if it really doesn't work, you'll have to pay it back in the next life."
Listening to Qin Jian's words, the girl burst into tears and laughed. She made a sneer in her throat, which was not audible, but it still reached Qin Jian's ears in the empty corridor.
"Ye Yi, are you born here?"
Qin Jian pointed to his mouth with a hint of doubt.
at this time.
A piece of soft Chinese-style music suddenly sounded.
It came from Ye Yi's pocket.
The moment he heard the music, Qin Jian vaguely noticed a trace of imperceptible panic in the other party's expression.
The two people stared at each other for a long time while their cell phones rang.
Just when Ye Yi took out his mobile phone and nodded slightly to Qin Jian to apologize and was about to turn around, the ringtone of the mobile phone ended.
Ye Yi froze in place.
Qin Jian narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.
moment.
"Is there anything else? You might as well tell me..."
At this time, the phone in Ye Yi's hand rang again.
Qin Jian moved.
"What if I can help you again?" Qin Jian said, walking to Ye Yi's side, reaching out and grabbing the phone from the other party's hand, "It's enough trouble to have one creditor, don't you think you're not troublesome enough?
?”
Looking at the number marked as the landlord's aunt on the phone screen, Qin Jian pressed the speaker phone.
The call is connected.
"Yi Zi, how are you thinking about it?" A woman's slightly anxious and concerned voice came from the phone.
"I have arranged things for you. As long as you nod now, you will get the money after tonight's work is completed. And as long as you obey in the future, the money will be yours, and you don't have to pay back the money you borrowed before. In the world
Is there a more suitable deal than this?"
a long time.
"Hey," the woman on the phone let out a long sigh, "Auntie has told you everything you need to say these days. Why is your child so ignorant? Think about your grandpa, can you wait, can he wait?
"
"Do you think there is anyone who can help you now?"
"Auntie is someone who has been here before. If you listen to her advice, there is something wrong, and it will be over as soon as you close your eyes."
"If you think about it, come back soon. Auntie is waiting for you at your house."
...
The phone was hung up.
Qin Jian felt that he probably understood.
"Let's go."
Qin Jian pulled up Ye Yi's cuffs and said, "Don't waste time, your grandpa will wake up in less than four hours."
At the entrance of the hospital, Qin Jian came out of the ATM and picked up a taxi.
...
In the taxi, Ye Yi sat in the back seat with his head lowered, while Qin Jian sat in the passenger seat with his eyes closed, trying his best to calm down his nervous emotions.
...
The car parked in a shantytown in a development zone that had not yet been renovated.
This is a gathering place for foreign residents in Nan City that is notoriously dirty and messy, with high security risks.
The shadowy place behind the bustling city.
Qin Jian only knew about this place in his previous life, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he still felt a little surprised.
The two of them walked one behind the other through a narrow road.
We came to a small renovated two-story building.
"That's it?" Qin Jian turned to look at Ye Yi. There was no expression on the girl's pale face, and she just nodded slightly.
"Don't worry."
After saying that, Qin Jian stepped through the door, and Ye Yi followed closely.
...
The dark interior was filled with smoke.
As soon as Ye Yi entered the room, he looked around, looking for something.
Qin Jian looked around at this shabby room that could barely be called a living room.
There are five people in total, four men and one woman.
The woman sitting on the chair still has charm and a smiling face, but the crow's feet next to the black eye shadow under the smile deeply betray her age.
This should be the owner of the phone voice.
The few young people sitting around with colorful hair, earrings, and exaggerated clothes didn't look so kind.
Especially the bald man wearing a gold chain next to the woman briefly glanced at Qin Jian and focused all his eyes on Ye Yi.
There was a strong light in his eyes, and he subconsciously touched a place with his left hand that he couldn't control.
...
"Just come back. Stop standing and sit down with your friends." The woman stood up and was the first to break the oppressive atmosphere in the room.
"I won't sit down anymore."
Qin Jian pulled Ye Yi down behind him, "Let's pack our things when we come back and leave."
"Let's go?" The woman glanced at Qin Jian in surprise, and then at Ye Yi behind Qin Jian. She seemed to understand something and smiled slightly, "Young man, this life is at stake. I advise you not to act out of emotion.
,Besides, some things have nothing to do with you."
As he spoke, he winked at the young people around him.
"what are you?"
"How should we talk to our eldest sister?"
"You have nothing to do here, get out of here."
The gangsters were talking all over each other, and one of them even took out a swing stick and played with it in his hand.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became tense.
It seems that today's conflict is unavoidable.
Feeling the increasingly violent trembling behind him, Qin Jian no longer hesitated, opened the panel directly, and looked at the inventory.
[Gladiator's Fearless Potion]
[Introduction to the item]: After use, your physical fitness and strength will be greatly improved.
"use or not?"
The moment Qin Jian was about to choose yes.
There was a squeak.
The door of a bedroom was opened, and a sleepy little girl walked out, rubbing her eyes.
Looking around the room with confusion, he suddenly saw Ye Yi among a group of strange people, and then rushed past with a look of joy on his face.
When Qin Jian saw this, after a brief hesitation, he chose No and closed the panel.
Qin Jian turned around and said, "Take the child and wait outside."
Unable to feel the movement behind him, Qin Jian shouted loudly: "Let's go."
"Leave?" The big bald man suddenly sneered, "You can leave if you want, but first leave the money you owe and half a year's rent, otherwise no one will be able to leave today."
"How much?" Qin Jian's eyes met.
"No more, no less, a total of ten thousand yuan." The bald man said and took out an IOU from his pocket.
Ye Yi's name is clearly signed in black and white on the paper.
"good."
Qin Jian said as he took out a pile of money from his arms and threw it on the table with a bang.
"Ten thousand yuan, bring me the IOU."
Everyone's eyes fell on the table.
The big bald man smiled and put the money and the IOU into his arms. He clenched his teeth, revealing a row of big gold teeth.
"Wait a minute, there is still interest."
"How many?"
"A total of 30,000 yuan."
Hearing what the big bald man said, Ye Yi rushed out and made wild gestures towards Qin Jian, making a faint whining sound in his throat.
The little girl on the side didn't know what happened, she just hugged Ye Yi's thigh tightly.
Seeing this scene, Qin Jian's blood became hotter and hotter.
He pulled Ye Yi in front of him, whispered in his ear: "Take the child and go, trust me, okay? Let's go."
After that, he took out three more piles of money and a bank card from his arms and threw them on the table.
