Chapter 27
Chapter 27
The house was a mess, with traces of being rummaged everywhere.
Ji Cen'an didn't bring much luggage when she rented the house, and she didn't add any other items recently. All her belongings were always carried with her, and she kept them in her backpack wherever she went. The perpetrators couldn't find what they wanted here. , All that can be found are simple furniture, broken pots and bowls, and clothes and pants drying on the side balcony.
——There will not be what that person wants here, it doesn't exist at all.
If there were any clues about Big Brother and the others, Ji Cen'an would have gone to the police station a long time ago, so why hide in this corner.
As for the part of the information given by Uncle Yang last time, as well as the doubts she found, it is not conclusive evidence, and it is nothing. She destroyed it a few days ago and recorded the contents in the In my mind, the purpose is to avoid implicating the innocent in this situation.
The person behind is really anxious, I don't know if he can't sit still, he is afraid that she will cause trouble, or he wants to use this as a warning, and take this opportunity to expressly tell her to restrain herself.
Maybe both, not contradictory.
On the one hand, I was worried that Ji Cen'an might have some clues, but I was not sure, so I took the risk of breaking open the door to see if I could find something related;
After all, the scene in the restaurant tonight is enough to explain many things, and the positions of all parties are also very different.
The interests of Nanjia and Pei Shaoyang are different. Ji Cen'an is now the one in the middle. There is no direct conflict between the three, but it is not ruled out that there will be no future.
Pei Shaoyang is not worried that Ji Cen'an will make too many waves, and he doesn't believe how much she can do when she is reduced to the present situation. He regards her as an ant that crawls blindly but runs into walls everywhere, and can't get out of the predicament, and despises her And proud.Otherwise, Ji Cen'an should have been dealt with a long time ago, how can she be arrogant under her nose.
But now that Nanjia is in place, the balance with overwhelming advantages will probably rise again. No matter what, it is a hidden danger that will explode at any time, and we have to beware of it.
Pei Shaoyang is suspicious by nature, he doesn't believe anyone, and he must guard Nanjia strictly.
It's not that he suspects that Nanjia and Ji Cen'an have a special relationship, and he didn't rely on that. It's that he is guarding against Nanjia's use of Ji Cen'an to make a fuss, or that Ji Cen'an goes to Nanjia's place, which will cause him harm. unfavorable.
Ji Cen'an took a few steps forward, walked to the side of the wooden bed, unmoved, picked up the trousers thrown on the floor at the foot of the bed, and straightened the crooked cabinet that was about to fall apart after a few more tosses. His expression is calm, not surprised by changes.
The cement chopping board in the kitchen, the rice noodles and salt that were neatly piled up in the corner yesterday were all implicated and did not survive the disaster.
Half a bag of white rice was scattered all over the floor, and the remaining half bag of noodles was not much better, it was scattered in all directions, a mess.Fortunately, the bottled oil is transparent, otherwise it would be the same treatment, not much difference.
The opposite side did a really good job, almost gouged through the wall to find it, and took away the brand-name toiletries in the bathroom, making the scene look like it was visited by thieves.
It's impossible to steal money, so just walk in with something, and it's worth coming in.
Ji Cen'an quietly tidied up the rented house, reset all the furniture, cleaned the kitchen, swept up the rice noodles on the ground, and took a bag to throw the garbage in the alley after a while, and returned to the house after returning to the house, and did nothing after that. Lie down on the bed and rest.
Tired all night, take a rest for now.
The high temperature scorched the earth, the scorching sun in the morning made the glass windows burn, and the green leaves on the roadside glowed faintly under the scorching light.
Later, Ji Cen'an didn't go to the hospital, and didn't help out for a day, so he stayed in Tongzi Lane to watch, wandering outside when he was free, and made a special trip to the nearest store to buy food again.
Not only to buy noodles, but also weigh a few catties of rice, and then buy some other things.
It is rare to be "extravagant and generous" once. I am not as self-defeating as I used to be, and I dare not spend too much money after I make money.
When the hiding place was discovered, Ji Cen'an didn't panic at all, he had expected it a long time ago, and so far he has dealt with it calmly.
Now that the traces have been exposed, it is not wise to run away immediately, you have to find the right time to go.
Those people should be watching in the dark, and if they act recklessly, they will lose their footing. They can't get rid of them wherever they go, no matter what, it's futile—the first time they ran away that year, Ji Cen'an did the same, let them go No matter how different methods were used to persecute her, she remained steadfast, seemingly shattered, and when she had a chance, she ran away overnight, leaving no one in sight.
The more critical the moment, the more we must face it calmly.
When Ji Cen'an was surrounded and monitored by a group of creditors three years ago, Ji Cen'an was able to get away without anyone noticing, so it's no big deal now.
No matter how bad it is, there is no place for the police to shelter, so we have to call the police as a last resort.
It's just that Ji Cen'an doesn't want to cause such trouble. First, there is no feasible solution to this mess of constant cutting and messing up. To find the police is at most to take notes in the past, and find trouble for the police in vain. Second, there is a quarrel If so, more people will come to ask for money, and door-to-door harassment is light.
As long as the Ji family's debts are not repaid, they will not be relieved for a day.
She is the biological daughter of the Ji family. Others can't find the eldest brother and the others, so they can only resort to the next best thing to force her, regardless of whether she can repay the debt, whether she should bear this responsibility from a legal point of view.
Knowing that it is useless to hide, Ji Cen'an is more cautious than usual, no longer deliberately hides his whereabouts, and no longer takes detours when he goes out. He always walks the same way when he goes out and back.
At the entrance of the alley, Ji Cen'an caught a glimpse of a suspicious trail not far away, and found a man of medium build.
The man has been following her for a long time. He has seen her in the store, and now he is following her here... He can't even follow her, he is very amateur.
At first glance, it was sent by Pei Shaoyang, maybe it was an idiot that Guo Jinyun found.Ji Cen'an calmly entered Tongzi Lane, returned to the rented house to cook dinner, and took his time to eat before going to work.
At night, when she drove to the vicinity of the Polytechnic University, she found a car parked on the side of the road diagonally opposite the Internet cafe.
She had seen that car before, so she was no stranger to it.
This is the car that Zhao Qihong drove here for the first time. It is very common on the street, and it is inconspicuous at all.
But the driver was not Zhao Qihong, but a young man with a strange face. He looked like a loafer at first glance, but he was thin and vigorous, around [-] by visual inspection, and his face was clever.
The young guy kept a low profile in the crowd passing by, stood under a tree and smoked without public morals, then went to the convenience store at the intersection to buy a can of iced Coke and a bucket of instant noodles, and then naturally entered the Internet cafe, assuming he was familiar with the road.
I really think of myself as the Sanhe master who came to the Internet, not Zhao Qihong.
Ji Cen'an saw the abnormality of the young man at a glance. He knew where he was from the moment he saw the car, but he didn't reveal it.
The young man went on the road, came in and paid the money, and then really started to wear headphones and play games. He never showed any flaws, and he always looked decent.He also ordered a supper in the middle, at first glance, he was not much different from other student parties.
Only at two or three o'clock in the morning, this person went to the toilet for about 10 minutes, picked up his mobile phone, went inside to be alone, and finally returned to the plane seat.
Ji Cen'an watched calmly, how he usually works is the same now, unchanged.
In the early morning, Babyface didn't come to take over.
Babyface changed to the middle shift, and the colleagues in the morning shift did not want to change again, and asked to switch back to the morning shift.
Working in an Internet cafe, the evening shift is the hardest. Staying up late can cause serious harm to your health. All employees are unwilling to work at night. The morning shift is relatively easy. Come over at 03 o'clock and finish work at 30:[-] in the afternoon. It is the most comfortable and comfortable of the three shifts. .
The full-time employees of the Internet cafe all work in three shifts, except Ji Cen'an, a temporary worker who only works the night shift and has no choice.
It would be good if Babyface didn't come, and Ji Cen'an didn't want to see him again.
It's better not to encounter this kind of period than to encounter it every day. Try not to have too many ambiguities.
On the other hand, Ah Chong's mother was discharged from the hospital, and her old ailment could not be cured, and she could go home when she recovered without serious problems. It was a waste of money to continue the treatment, and it was unnecessary.
Ji Cen'an originally planned to go over to visit, but he gave up and didn't even say a word of greeting.
Cut off all irrelevant ties and keep others out of it.
Ah Chong made a phone call to thank Ji Cen'an for taking care of his mother and Xiaoyu, and wanted to invite this person and Chen Qirui to dinner again to thank him, but Ji Cen'an didn't answer the phone, so he could only invite the other two.
Ji Cen'an became alone again, difficult to get close to, and difficult to approach anyone.
Pei Shaoyang's eyeliner didn't leave, he squatted nearby every day, quietly observing the movement of the rental house, if it got on it, he couldn't get rid of it.
But the other side will not do anything, other than that, there is no other action, it seems that they are just watching the changes, and will wait for the opportunity according to Ji Cen'an's behavior later.
Ji Cen'an's daily routine is two o'clock and one line, which is basically fixed. Occasionally, if he changes his direction, he will go shopping for food, and the rest will be gone, and he can't do anything.
As for Zhao Qihong's side, Nanjia's side... Ji Cen'an put it aside, he didn't take everything that night seriously, and he didn't care.She wouldn't ask Zhao Qihong for help, she didn't have that plan, she was already fully prepared to leave Z city, and she just waited for the right time to find out in the next few days.
He must go, it is impossible to stay here and let others slaughter him.
Where there is life, there is hope.
Follow-up can check later, take a step to see a step.
Unlike Nanjia's "see you in two days", they didn't see each other in three days, and there was no chance of passing by.
It was time to collect the rent, and the landlord came once to collect the next month's money.
It has been a few days late to come here, the landlord has gone out on business, and immediately urged to pay the rent as soon as he came back, for fear that the tenant will renege on the bill.
Ji Cen'an gave the money readily, without delay, and handed over two bills.
While confirming the authenticity of the money, the landlord asked angrily, "Will you still rent it next month?"
Ji Cen'an didn't bat an eye when telling lies: "I want to rent."
The landlord had a look of "I knew it", and chattered a lot, to the effect that the rent would be raised soon, so Ji Cen'an was mentally prepared.
For the first time, Ji Cen'an gave a good face and said, "Got it."
Although she didn't say anything, the landlord was a little surprised, probably because she didn't expect her to be so talkative, her eyes widened, as if she had seen a ghost, and she couldn't believe her ears.
"The price is really going up, and it will go up next month." The landlord said, clearing his throat deliberately, pretending to be deep, fearing that Ji Cen'an would go back on his word, he said it again quickly.
Ji Cen'an asked, "How much?"
The landlord stretched out a finger, peeking at Ji Cen'an's reaction.
"It's not much, just a hundred."
Ji Cen'an was still easy to talk, so he hummed.
"can."
The landlord didn't dare to take it seriously, rubbed his ears, and said, "From next time, three hundred a month, have you figured it out?"
The original plan was to increase the price by dozens of yuan, but considering that the tenant would bargain, I decided to quote more and leave some room for bargaining.
The landlord had a bad sensory impression of Ji Cen'an, and had an intuition that Ji Cen'an would not agree to a rent increase, but he knew that she was more talkative than other tenants.He regarded Ji Cen'an as a poor ghost with no money, thinking of a person who would be left behind, logically speaking, he shouldn't be so willing.
However, Ji Cen'an didn't know how to explain, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense. Seeing that he didn't leave, he slammed the door behind him, almost hitting the landlord's face into a serious illness.
Such an arrogant attitude is what she should have.The landlord took half a step back and dodged it. He immediately opened his mouth to curse and lost his temper.
Ji Cen'an at the door didn't talk back, turned a deaf ear, and let him go crazy.
On the same day, the landlord finished collecting the rent and went downstairs, furious and wanted to leave.
The man of medium build "coincidentally" came to look for a house, asked the landlord if there were any vacancies for rent, and asked for a room on the second floor by name.
Using this to inquire about Ji Cen'an is actually probing.
It's a pity that the landlord has a hot temper. He has experienced enough to see that the man is not sincerely renting a house, and ignores him. When he was stopped and questioned, he even cursed: "Fuck you, there is no room, no room, don't stand in my way!"
From this, the man learned that Ji Cen'an would not leave in the short term and would continue to stay.He quickly notified the employer of the news and reported the progress here.
At the same time, Ji Cen'an was half hidden behind the window, staring at the man on the phone without saying a word, watching all the actions downstairs.
Go to work as usual, travel as usual.
All proceeded as before, without much change.
The salary of 1000 yuan per day is not small, and it is nearly [-] yuan for eight days of work.
Adding the odd wages in small bars and restaurants, and excluding all expenses, the savings in Ji Cen'an's pocket almost doubled.
Not much, but enough to last for a while.
When the deposit was almost two thousand and five thousand, Ji Cen'an went to work as usual, carrying the messenger bag on his back, and didn't need the rest.
Including the old clothes I brought into town, and other messes.
She went to work in the Internet cafe, put down her bag, and waited for the supervisor to show up.
The supervisor is still that stupid and unvirtuous, and he keeps nagging.
But today the sun came out from the west, and at the end of the month it was time to give subsidies to the employees, but he didn't deduct money from Ji Cen'an, a temporary worker, and gave Ji Cen'an a 200 yuan subsidy for staying up late.
The boss behind the Internet cafe is conscientious, thinking that young people are not easy to work, so they still give some so-called benefits.
When the supervisor sent money to Ji Cen'an, his eyes were always looking up, and he didn't look directly at her. He said in a strange way: "Just work hard after receiving the money, and don't be late next time. The boss asked you to give it to you. I think it will be difficult for everyone in the near future." , In normal times, how could there be such a good thing. And you are not our regular worker, logically speaking, you should not be given subsidies."
Sui Sui can't finish reading it, it is worthy of being the humerus in the store.
Ji Cen'an listened, collected the money, worked quickly with his hands and feet, and took time out to light a cigarette when he was in the middle.
When you're done smoking, come back once.
At four o'clock in the morning, I went out and smoked again.
At that time, the regular customers of the Internet cafes who played liver games were exhausted and worked hard all night. At this time, many people lay down on the table to rest, and other colleagues also sat behind the cashier and dozed off.
It was almost dawn when the supervisor realized that there seemed to be an employee missing, but he couldn't turn his head after staying up all night, and couldn't detect who was missing for a while.
Looking at the other employees, and then looking at the satchel in the corner, I realized that Ji Cen'an seemed to be lazy and didn't know where he was going. The voice asked: "Where is Jiang Can, where did he die, did he leave early?"
The girl looked confused, she didn't notice when Ji Cen'an left, she looked at the satchel in a blink of an eye, and said without knowing anything: "No, the bag is still here, maybe I went outside to get some air, or it's in the toilet .”
But ten minutes later, no one came out of the toilet.
The manager's face became more and more ugly, and he ordered the cashier girl to look for it over there, and he also went around to look around.
Ji Cen'an was not there, there was no one in the toilet, there was no sign of her in the Internet cafe, and she couldn't be found outside.
It was only at this time that some people realized that they had lost track, and the target had already run away.
For so many days, Ji Cen'an didn't fight back on the surface, as if she really didn't notice them. From morning to night, she had the "self-willed depravity" virtue, and lived a boring life, as if she would be so numb for the rest of her life live on.She didn't feel bored, those people guarding her were bored, so naturally they relaxed their vigilance, not as cautious as they were in the first two days.
The young man who had been soaking in the Internet cafe as a customer was the first to come back to his senses, and when he saw the supervisor getting angry, he figured out the smell.He didn't make much movement, he didn't leave his seat, knowing that it was useless to chase him, he just grabbed his phone and sent a text message to inform Zhao Qihong.
Another group of people standing outside the Internet cafe didn't realize the strangeness until after eight o'clock.
In the past, Ji Cen'an would always withdraw when the time came, and would never work for a minute longer, but this morning it was a long time since she was late.
On the Volkswagen bus at the entrance of the Internet cafe, the man who had followed Ji Cen'an panicked. He couldn't wait for a long time, and felt that something was wrong. He raised his hand and slapped his accomplice on the head, cursing: "You are still sleeping, you are paralyzed! Everyone ran away." , get up! get up!"
The sun rose in mid-air, dazzling and brilliant, and the light was blinding and dazzling.
On the highway outside the city, an old Baba's van was speeding forward.The owner of the van was a rude-looking man who spoke the local dialect and kept complaining, overtly and secretly signaling the passengers in the back row to pay more.
Excluding the driver's wife, there were four passengers in the car, a woman in distress, a father and son, and a young woman wearing a hat and closing her eyes to meditate.
That is Ji Cen'an.
Ji Cen'an listened to the bullshit, closed his eyes, and then remained still.
The rest of the passengers were calmer than her, not even looking at the driver couple in front.
The driver and his wife were ashamed to death, but they couldn't do anything to the four of them.
……
It was also at this moment, in the villa on Hancheng Road.
Zhao Qihong stood in front of the desk respectfully, with his head slightly lowered, and he didn't let out a breath after he finished speaking.
Nanjia on the opposite side looked up the information quietly, and raised his eyes after a while, his eyes were as dull as stagnant water, but his tone was relaxed and normal.
"I lost my follower and won't look for it again?"
Zhao Qihong didn't dare to be careless, and replied: "I'm already looking for it."
But I didn't say anything else, so I couldn't guarantee it.
There was a sound of needles falling in the whole room, but it was like a dead place in broad daylight.
The cool wind blows in from the outside, blowing on the body is cold, comparable to the twelfth lunar month of winter.
Nanga didn't put down the file, but had nothing else to say.
My mind is not as easy to guess as usual, it is very deep.
Zhao Qihong has been standing there, not going out, waiting for orders.
Nanjia closed the document and asked plainly, "Do you still need me to teach you?"
Zhao Qihong quickly responded: "Go here, don't worry about it."
Immediately turned around and went out, closing the door behind him.
When we went outside, the atmosphere was not so gloomy.
Zhao Qihong looked inside in embarrassment, feeling a little worried through the door... Sure enough, not long after, there was a sound inside, as if something had been swept to the ground, a burst of movement.
Didn't go in after all, or left his boss alone.
Zhao Qihong turned and went downstairs, sighing.
A servant came over and said to Zhao Qihong: "Mr. Xu is here, come here to find Mr. Nan."
Zhao Qihong waved his hand, "Not now, send him away."
The servant understood and obeyed cleverly.
Zhao Qihong suddenly stopped him, hesitated for two seconds, and changed his words: "Forget it, I'll deal with him."
