Lin Yi picked up a slightly red apple from Ling Qi's bedside. He pulled out a folding knife from his back and slowly woke up.
It was already noon. Ling Seven had not slept so comfortably in a long time. Last night, she kept thinking about what Lin Yi had said.
"After all, your Lin family?"
Why is our Lin family so disliked by people like them? This was the case in Jinling. No matter how powerful you were, you had to be strong. They will always look at us with a strange gaze, with the eyes of the enemy. They always see us as potential danger, and we're still, still not stopping, and we're in extreme danger time and time again.
The more Ling Qi thought about it, the more vexed he became until Lin Yi sat beside him in the middle of the night. Only then did she slowly fall asleep, so much so that when she opened her eyes, it was already noon.
She looked at the man who was silently peeling an apple. How could that be! The once high-spirited young talent had become rather greasy at this time. She thought of Lin Yi's appearance when she was in university and could not help but smack her lips and sigh softly.
"Make a sound when you wake up. Don't peek at me. If you keep looking at me, I'll charge you!" Lin Yi kept peeling the apple in his hand. He stared at his hand and suddenly said.
"Hmph, you're not a prince. You want to charge me for looking at you?" Ling Qi pouted.
It had been a long time since he saw Ling Seven being so obedient in front of him. Lin Yi was delighted and said with a smile," Hey, woman.”
"Captain Lin, no way! That kind, that kind!" Ling Qi winked at him and laughed in his heart.
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow as he realized the occupation that Ling Seven was talking about. Then, he rubbed his nose at Ling Seven and said," Hmph, you're still so mischievous even though you're injured. Be careful, I'll take advantage of your critical condition. Hehe!”
Lin Yi smiled evilly as he passed the peeled apple to Ling Qi. He rubbed his hands and looked at Ling Seven.
Ling Seven said," No, you wouldn't. If you wanted to do something bad while I was in critical condition, you would have done it long ago.”
When Lin Yi heard that, she was stunned. Her mind flashed back to the time when Ling Seven was injured. In the desolate wilderness, Ling Qi's abdomen was bleeding profusely. He was sweating profusely as he pressed down on his wound.。。
"Aiyaya, stop talking! Didn't you…"
"How is Li Hou?" Ling Qi said when he saw Lin Yi panicking.
"In the morning, he told me to go to the demolition area in the Laocheng District to investigate the workers. Let's see if there are any clues. This young man is quite capable.”Lin Yi was also tactful and kept quiet about that matter.
"That's true! It makes sense for the director to specially let the two of you team up.”Ling Seven praised.
"Why do you say that?" Lin Yi asked.
"Look! Your thoughts are ahead of your time, but your actions are not enough. To put it bluntly, you only say it and don't do it. As for Li Hou, he doesn't like to talk much in front of us, but he works hard behind our backs. Let me tell you, when you were suspended for a few months, everyone did their best.”Ling Seven slowly explained to Lin Yi.
"That's true! Li Hou, that brat." Lin Yi sighed.
"See, my analysis makes sense! You should learn well."
"Then tell me, why did the director agree to transfer you back?”
"Because, because! You lack a fighter." Ling Qi pursed his lips and nodded his head as he said seriously.
"Is that so?" Lin Yi looked at Ling Seven's current appearance. His head was wrapped in bandages and his expression was not very good. He glared at her and raised his eyebrows. Ling Qi realized that something was wrong. He looked at Lin Yi and his face turned red. He raised his fist and punched Lin Yi.
Lin Yi was calm and unhurried. It was exactly what he wanted. Then, he shouted,"Aiyo, this is bad. He attacked the police."。。”
The atmosphere between the two gradually became harmonious, and laughter filled the ward. It was as if he had returned to his carefree university days.
There was always someone doing something in silence. After Li Hou told Lin Yi about his next step in the morning, he went to the Laocheng District alone.
In response to the government's call, the streets of the Laocheng District were being demolished one by one. Li Hou found out that most of the migrant workers here lived in a house.
The last batch of demolished streets in the north of the district. The exact location could only be found there. This was something that Li Hou had to spend a lot of effort to find out.
It was already noon, and Li Hou's stomach was growling. Under the urging of the scorching sun, he obediently stepped into a noodle shop!
There were many types of wheat in the local area, so there were many types of noodles. Li Hou looked at the menu on the wall and his eyes fell on a bowl of noodles. Noodles? He ordered a bowl of tomato and egg noodles. When he thought of the sour tomatoes and the soup made from stir-frying eggs, he felt that he had to eat a bowl of noodles. Coupled with the chewy handmade noodles, Li Hou swallowed a mouthful of saliva in his dry throat.
After the meal was announced, Li Hou ordered a cup of tea and slowly sipped it as he looked around.
The storefront was very deep, and there should be several floors upstairs. Although there were only a few fans in the shop, it was still very cool on such a hot day.
Li Hou wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and looked at the receptionist. A young lady of about sixteen or seventeen years old stood there quietly, glancing at the few customers.
The woman was thin, but she was very healthy. The fitting white short-sleeved shirt was clean and light.
Li Hou saw that it was already placed on the table. After nodding his head in thanks, he took out two chopsticks. He quickly flipped the noodles. If he didn't flip the noodles evenly, it would be a waste of a bowl of good noodles.
Li Hou saw that it was not bad. After flipping it quickly, he picked up a large lump and stuffed it into his mouth. The noodles mixed with soup were extremely delicious. Li Hou couldn't bear to praise them, but he couldn't stop eating them.
Just as she was eating happily, a few people kept running in from behind the door. Before she could see them, she heard their voices.
"Cui Er, give me five bowls of noodles with shredded pork. Two or three side dishes, eight bone buds garlic." A loud tenor voice rang out behind Li Hou. He couldn't help but glance back. They were all burly men. Two or three of them stood at the door. At this time, their shirts were already tied into strips and hung on their shoulders. One of them was stroking his round belly. Immediately after, the person from before said," Cui Er, bring me a bunch of cold beer."”
After saying that, the few of them found a big table and sat down one by one. Seeing that they had settled down, Li Hou took a few more bites before taking a closer look.
These people had the obvious appearance of migrant workers. Their pants were common army green overalls that were durable and dirt-resistant. Their shoes were also green shoes from Liberation. A belt as wide as a finger was tied around it. When he sat down, he adjusted his position.
The servant girl called Cui Er brought the cold beer over with one hand. He even said," Uncles, my father is already making noodles. You guys drink beer first!”
"Alright! Cui Er! Ask your father to make more noodles for us and pay more.”
"Alright, alright. You guys drink first."
Li Hou shook his head gently when he saw these cute people. Seeing that there was still quite a lot of noodles in the bowl, he picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of soup before he started eating again.
Not much time had passed, but there were only a few people left in the shop. Other than a few burly men who had just arrived, Li Hou was the only customer left. Originally, Li Hou should have left early. His noodles had already been eaten up. Facing his gluttonous behavior just now, Li Hou could not bear to laugh at himself.
To put it simply, he was stuffed. Li Hou asked Cui 'er for a glass of water. He propped his left hand on his knee and sat sideways on the chair, gulping down the water.
The bottom of the cup was already visible. Li Hou put down the cup and was about to walk out. However, he heard someone say softly,"Second brother, tell me." Did the construction site next door really do that? There are two of them!"
"What? I already told you to say it after the crash. Are you not going to stop me?"
"It's not that we want to ask, but our batch came here together. If we hadn't delayed the project, we might have been the ones who came the second time.”Another person next to him started talking.
"Don't, Second Brother. Let's leave early.”
"Leave early? Why didn't you tell us when we settled the bill? Now you say this." The voice that was called second brother became louder and louder, and finally, he could not help but shout.
"Ya! Second Brother, I didn't expect that he would ask me to do the life stance!”The person shouted anxiously.
Life Pillar? Li Hou had heard some useful information. She was just about to take a step forward, but she slowly retracted her foot. Fortunately, she was wearing ordinary clothes, so she did not have too many worries. She sat there motionless and listened quietly.
"Second brother? No way, didn't they say that only big projects are built with stakes?"
"Sigh! You coward! You dare to say this? I let you hit me, I let you hit me?”
"Don't scold me. I just want to earn money to support my children and wife. I don't want to lose my life!”A thin and weak person at the side said aggrievedly.
"I don't want that hundred thousand. They were all dead, just like that young couple!”The man said.
Young couple? Li Hou's eyes lit up when he heard this. Looks like it's my turn to perform.
