Chapter 36 December 22

If I don't do it, I will keep on doing it. Yesterday I deliberately made a fuss. The yin and yang of the past few days, to be honest, I can't stand it!On the one hand, he wants to use you, but at the same time, he puts on a hypocritical face of "it's all for you", and treats him as the number one fool in the world; -- it's especially ridiculous, and he has to hide some things from you.To be honest, I also look down on such a person a hundred and twenty times! If G is a mad dog, then they are the famous big rats here! Maybe you can make an alliance with the mouse, but if you become the mouse's tail, it's too bad luck!

However, it seems that the "rats" are really well-informed, temporarily avoiding the two righteous masters, leaving only one "my good sister" who can be responsible but is really inconvenient to deal with me. The first sentence after the meeting was "Song Sheng and Secretary Chen both have work, and I don't have time today, so what should I do?" Seeing that my expression was a little strange, she continued, "I'll send someone to look at them again. It may not be possible to come What! Sister, let's talk first, and I'll tell Songsheng later..."

"No! This has to be decided on the spot! It has to be face-to-face—three people, study and discuss." "Oh, then," Shunying said with a helpless expression, "how about you come back tomorrow?" It was too much like dealing with a debtor, and I became a little more unhappy; with a dry smile, I deliberately said in a deep thought: "Tomorrow - tomorrow? But, don't you tell me to move less and be careful when going in and out?" "That's assuming..." Shunying hesitated. "Assuming that the surveillance is very strict," I interrupted before she finished speaking, "is it true? Hey, Shunying, what do you think I do? Don't you understand this?"

"But according to Secretary Chen, it seems..." Shunying paused, turning her head sideways to think. "What did he say?" I asked. "He said—the guy you met that night probably didn't specifically deal with you; the situation is that where you went, it has already been noticed, so it infected you." "However, I haven't been anywhere these days, and I still..." I didn't finish, just smiled with my mouth flattened. "Oh—then, when you came here just now, did you..." "Of course you did!" I said hurriedly, making it more serious on purpose. "Why not? There's more than one! I also clearly saw that one circled around your house, back and forth."

Shunying's complexion changed, she moved closer to me, and grabbed my hand, as if she wanted to tell me something.I also held her hand tightly, thinking to myself: "They just left you at home to perfuse me, which is a clever idea; but every advantage has a disadvantage, you see, I have lured you into the bait with a few words." But after Shunying hesitated for a while, she could only say one word: "Oh, but Songsheng will not be able to go home until late at night today!" "Sister Shunying," I took advantage of the situation to tease her, "Is there anything inconvenient at home? It's best to move it in the morning. It must be avoided!"

She shook her head with a wry smile.But he managed to change his wry smile into a smile, and said in a rather unnatural voice: "Isn't it very convenient? Haha, it's a little bit; The full set of opium lamps, pipes, and big soil in the ear room. " But how could I make her "shift the target"? Pretending not to understand her irony, I leaned into her ear and said solemnly: "Shunying, it's not about opium-smoking equipment! Other things—for example, The coded telegram book..." Before I finished speaking, Shunying's body visibly shook; my blow seemed to have hit her vitals.She turned to look at me in astonishment, but said nothing.

"In the past few days, I have seen some signs." I turned my guess into real material. "They are also dealing with us in the same way we dealt with him. They even sent people to lie to me and provoke me! What they say is beyond words,—but it's simply terrifying!" "Ah! What did they say?" Shunying couldn't help but panic. I frowned, and said with an anxious face: "But Song Sheng and Chen Fatty have something to do today, so it's so worrying!" "However, sister, how did they lie to you, how did they provoke you?" "Anyway, that's the way," I deliberately let go of the conversation.He pondered for a while, and then said: "There are a few words that you can pay attention to. They laughed at me as a fool: 'Don't dream. As usual, things like this don't go away. You've been messing around for many years. What's more, about you, whoever instigated you to do this has long been known; they are the same goods, it's nothing more than uneven distribution of spoils, and they are at odds with each other. Now, the mediation Instigated you to come out and sue, but they negotiated the conditions behind the scenes, and reconciled! As a result, you became a thorn in their eyes!' Shunying, look, how sweet are these words?"

Shunying listened silently, pretending to be calm, but it was really because she was not sure how to respond to this "offensive".She seemed to be thinking: should I have a deep talk with me on this, or be vague and perfunctory?Both sides have their pros and cons, and she was dizzy all of a sudden. "Who told you these words? Was it that Xiao Rong?" Shunying thought for a long time before she remembered such a sentence.This can make me have to be angry.In such an occasion, no one would use such an offensive question, but Shunying actually used it, how clever! "Oh, Shunying," I said with a sneer, "if I casually say A, B, C, D, you can't prove it! It's a pity that Fatty Chen avoided it today, otherwise, I just need to say a name, and he will understand. It's not me playing tricks; besides, what's the point of me playing tricks!"

"Hehe, that's not what I said, sister, don't worry; we know who it is, so we can find a way to deal with it—that's what it means." I put my arm around her shoulder and smiled noncommittally.For heaven's sake, this set of words is indeed not fabricated out of thin air; the one who told me is that F who just came back from the ×× area.Whether he acted as a lobbyist on behalf of G, I still can't say for sure.But even if he doesn't say it, I have already had such concerns myself.Just seeing that there has been no sound of "wind" in recent days, is it not enough to understand?

"It is said that they reconciled behind the scenes, huh!" I muttered to myself intentionally, and then nodded slightly, while paying attention to the changes in Shunying's expression. Maybe she really didn't know the twists and turns inside, but maybe she saw through my intentions, so she kept her face, and I didn't get the reaction I expected. Shunying seemed to be remembering something, she raised her head and stared at the space, her lips parted slightly; that air, vulgar yet official, made people unhappy. "I really want to ask Fatty Chen, what's going on?" I pushed further.

Shunying glanced at me, but ignored my words. "But, do you understand that there is a person spying back and forth at my place?" She suddenly whispered. "Is this with you, or the other one?" She looked at my face, waiting for my answer. It turned out that this selfish guy only cared about herself, and she was very guilty. I smiled, and replied calmly: "The scene is another one, specially here to serve the mansion." "That's strange! I'm not here..." "Then you naturally understand!" I interrupted her and decided to attack her head-on. "I've wanted to tell you a long time ago that this group of guys live by making troubles, go from place to place, and if they have milk, they are their mothers,——no, according to their own catchphrase, 'There is no foster father here, there is a place for foster father'! You Look, after spending other people's money, you still want to be a master! Be careful, these men often betray their sons!" "Oh, this is also the real situation, but—" Shunying frowned, and stopped talking. "But you are not afraid," I made up for her and smiled. "Of course. But I'm different. Shunying, tell me, if I don't make a plan for myself, I'll do what others say, without asking: Are we a partnership, or I'm a simple errand? Then— —One day, someone changed his mind in a flash, how could I bear it? Why don't you take advantage of it and stay behind!" Shunying stared at me blankly, not making a sound. "Some of the things I have encountered these days have made me uneasy--I don't need to go into details. I don't want to take credit, but I want to be innocent. I plan to get an answer. What is it? If they have joined hands behind the scenes, You also have to send me a letter; in case the higher authorities send me to ask questions again, I will be able to see the wind and turn the rudder, don’t be so stubborn and act stupid! Shunying, we are old classmates, good sister, you have to replace me Come up with an idea, let me do it this way, do you think it will work?" "Oh, hey, I'm afraid you are too careless..." "It's not overthinking! I still blame myself for being too stubborn!" "However, if you ask me that, it won't seem like a shame." "So I just said, are we a partnership, or—" "What about a partnership?" "If you're a partner, it doesn't matter if you look good or not. Everyone has explained that it's easier to do things. Otherwise, I have to plan for myself; if something goes wrong tomorrow, don't blame me!" With a troubled look on her face, Shunying slowly stretched out her hand, held mine, and said hesitantly, "But..." I immediately stopped her and said: "Good sister, don't be 'no more'. Tell me a fair word: should I plan a way out for myself? Everyone has their own circumstances. If you do what I do In the middle of the month, one encounters those things one after another, sometimes making you laugh, sometimes making you cry, and sometimes making you confused and unable to tell the north, south, east, west, north, south, east, west, north, east, south, south, east, north, south, north, east, west, etc.——Shunying, if you lose your nerve, then it’s no wonder! How much do I have? The second time I thought to myself: It’s fine if I die. But until today, I’m not dead. Why should I die? There’s no big thing waiting for me to do, and people won’t feel lacking when I’m dead; One or two people feel a little uncomfortable. I'm not going to let those who are not as good as dogs look at my dead body and laugh!" Shunying listened to me silently, her eyes kept slipping across my face, as if trying to understand my state of mind, it seemed that I had such an idea, which was beyond her expectation.At the end, she said with a bit of sympathy: "It's true that you have been a little different recently. But you, isn't it good to be optimistic at all? Why do you think more and more empty? You also have friends who are willing to help, as long as you say something. " "Oh, there are friends too,—yes!" I smiled wryly, and closed my eyes, as if I saw the faces of these so-called "friends" and how they "helped".I patted Shunying on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Thank you, good sister, it's just a pity that my matter is too complicated and weird. It's not according to my friends' opinions to help me, but I--soaked in water I am in the water, only I know the temperature of the water." Maybe Shunying didn't understand this last sentence, but it undoubtedly left an impression on her; she was stupefied for a moment, then she seemed to think of something, and suddenly pulled me up and said, "It's no wonder,—— But you don't have to keep thinking about him and ruin your health!" "What about him? Who is he?" I couldn't figure it out for a while. "Who else is there besides him—your Xiao Zhao!" "But what happened to him?" I asked anxiously, feeling a little ominous. "Didn't Secretary Chen tell you?" I shook my head: "That's why I'm not happy with Fatty Chen! He's always hesitating about such a trivial matter, without telling the truth!" I shook my head vigorously again. "Actually, I don't need to say it," Shunying glanced at me, but then turned her eyes away. "Secretary Chen didn't tell you that's why. You can imagine it. But no, if you have good news, you can tell it to you; if you have nothing to tell you, it's natural—you can think it." "He's dead!" As soon as I said this, my throat was choked; I grabbed Shunying's hand vigorously.Things were expected, but the "accident" that I had been looking forward to every day for the past month was completely hopeless. ...
