Mahjong

Chapter 8

Bi Zhongliang raised his wine glass, and there was a hint of admiration in his tone, "Look at death as home? Okay. I'll toast you." After finishing speaking, he raised his head and drank the wine.

Chen Shen was lying on the hospital bed, thinking about what happened during this period, Bi Zhongliang must have interrogated Shen Qiuxia.When he thought of this, he couldn't help showing worry in his eyes. The only thing he hoped for was that Shen Qiuxia could survive and come to the organization to rescue her.Bi Zhongliang must have known all about the hospital explosion, but he didn't know whether Bi Zhongliang would believe what he said, or jump into the situation he had set up.

At this time, Biantou walked in, and there were some scratches on his face from glass scratches.He walked up to Chen Shen and said, "Boss, I'll take you out of the hospital."

Chen Shen nodded, changed his clothes, and walked out together with Bian Tou.The messy corridor has been cleaned up long ago, even the glass has been reinstalled, and it is completely impossible to see that there was a violent explosion here.

Biantou turned his head to look at the gauze around Chen Shen's neck and said, "Boss, you've been unconscious for so long, you must not know that the two brothers Wu Zhiguo did everything, right?"

Chen Shen was slightly surprised, "Recruited?"

Biantou said: "Do they dare not recruit? Many of us have surrounded the hospital like an iron wall. If such a big event can happen, it must be done by our own people. There are so many explosions in so many places, and a large living person has to be carried away." If you go out, there must be accomplices to support you."

Chen Shen looked calm, knowing that everything was in his plan.

Biantou continued: "Oh, that's right. Virgo told you to go directly to his house after leaving the hospital, and Mrs. Bi told you to go to eat. Also, don't add fuel to Mrs. Bi's incident about your injury. Old Bi said she would sleep at night. Unconscious."

Chen Shen smiled and said, "Old Bi is not afraid of anything, but his wife."

It was already evening when Chen Shen arrived at Bi Zhongliang's house.Bi Zhongliang's wife, Liu Lanzhi, dragged Chen Shen to the sofa, speaking in Mandarin with a Shanghai accent: "What happened? How did you make it like this? Let my sister-in-law look at the wound."

Chen Shen sat down on the sofa and said, "It's okay, sister-in-law, you don't need to look at it."

Liu Lanzhi looked closely at Chen Shen's bandaged wound and said, "Even if it doesn't get in the way, the wound should be well healed. Pigeon soup should be ready, Mama Liu, hurry up and give Chen Shen a bowl, it's very effective in healing the wound."

Chen Shen said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, nurse Zhu Haiyan bandaged me very well, and she also said that the wound will heal soon."

After Chen Shen finished his pigeon soup, all the dishes were ready.Chen Shen helped Liu Lanzhi bring the dishes to the dining table from the kitchen, and the clock pointed to 06:30 in the evening.

Liu Lanzhi asked while setting the plate, "Why hasn't Lao Bi come back?"

As soon as Liu Lanzhi finished speaking, the door was opened, and it was Bi Zhongliang who came back.He entered the room and took off his coat, changed into a cotton robe, and walked to the dining table.Chen Shen kept looking at him with a smile.

Liu Lanzhi toasted, "Come on, Lao Bi, congratulations on your 35th birthday!"

Bi Zhongliang and his wife were holding wine glasses, but Chen Shen was holding kvass soda.The three of them clinked glasses together and drank it all.

Chen Shen still had a foolish demeanor, "I wish you all the best!"

Bi Zhongliang smiled and knocked on Chen Shen's head, "What are you still a child? A 35-year-old old man."

Liu Lanzhi stood up and refilled her and Bi Zhongliang's wine glasses, "Your mother gave you your life before the age of 30."

Bi Zhongliang picked up the wine glass and said in agreement: "The life after the age of 30 is given by the brothers. Come, Chen Shen, I respect you."

Chen Shen smiled and said, "Can you two stop talking about these things all day long?" Then he spread his hands in front of Bi Zhongliang, and said with a deeper smile, "It's better to be more practical."

Bi Zhongliang understood, turned his head and said to Liu Lanzhi: "Call Biantou later and play mahjong. Lanzhi, you are responsible for releasing Chen Shen."

Chen Shen laughed loudly, "Hey, it's not too bad."

Liu Lanzhi looked at Bi Zhongliang and Chen Shen who were smiling happily in front of him, stretched out his chopsticks and hit each of their bowls, and said, "Okay, okay, stop bickering, you brothers, and eat. Old Bi, I How many times have I told you to transfer Chen Shen to the General Affairs Department? Why don’t you listen to me? Look, Chen Shen got hurt again...

Bi Zhongliang took a big mouthful of food and said, "No way. Niu Yiping, the chief of the general affairs department, is Li Moqun's brother-in-law. He can't do anything if others can do it."

Liu Lanzhi has always regarded Chen Shen as his younger brother, not to mention that Chen Shen once saved Bi Zhongliang's life when he suppressed the red bandits in Jiangxi.Liu Lanzhi was also very concerned about Chen Shen's finding a wife, and kept talking about it in front of Bi Zhongliang all day long.Bi Zhongliang was very helpless, and told Chen Shen more than once to let Chen Shen find a wife earlier. Every time, Chen Shen would laugh at Bi Zhongliang and say, "It's good to read it, keep reading, it's called the evil man's own trouble."

After dinner, Liu Lanzhi and Liu Ma went to pack their things.Chen Shen was sitting on the tea table making Kung Fu tea, while Bi Zhongliang was sitting beside him playing with a pipe.On the side table was a group photo of a family of three, a little girl sitting between Bi Zhongliang and Liu Lanzhi, about five or six years old.

Bi Zhongliang looked at the girl in the photo, "If Niuniu was still here, she would be 12 years old this year!"

Chen Shen stopped making tea just like that, "It's been six years, how time flies!"

Bi Zhongliang looked at Liu Lanzhi who was busy at the dining table, and said to Chen Shen: "For these years, you often accompany your sister-in-law to church or something, and she is much more cheerful."

Chen Shen said: "Time will cure her."

Bi Zhongliang said with emotion: "Time can turn square into round, and turn something into nothing..."

Chen Shen laughed at himself, "It can also turn anti-Japanese fighters into traitors."

Bi Zhongliang glared at Chen Shen, "Is there anyone who scolds me like that? Are you blaming me for dragging you into a pirate ship?"

Chen Shen stopped what he was doing, looked up at Bi Zhongliang and said, "What are you doing to blame? If you become a deserter, even if you go back, you will be dragged by the party state to feed the dogs."

Bi Zhongliang said: "I know you blame me, because you still have a conscience."

Chen Shen squinted his eyes and smiled. He continued to brew tea and said, "But the party and the state don't believe in our conscience."

"So we still have to find a way out for ourselves. I still remember the first time I took you to see Li Moqun, he asked what you would do?" Bi Zhongliang looked at Chen Shen and asked.

Chen Shen put down his Kung Fu tea, quickly took out the haircut scissors from his pocket, twirled them dazzledly in his hands, and said, "I can shave my head."

Bi Zhongliang and Chen Shen laughed together.

Chen Shen said seriously: "My father actually doesn't want me to learn how to shave my head. He wants me to be a teacher of Chinese, but I can't do Chinese."

Bi Zhongliang also became serious. He took the razor in Chen Shen's hand, took off the gun from his waist and put it on the coffee table in front of Chen Shen, saying, "Sooner or later you still have to take the gun."

The smile on Chen Shen's face froze. He looked at the gun and recalled the past.

Before Chen Shen's eyes, the past of training recruits with Bi Zhongliang at the recruit training center in Hangzhou appeared.It was spring, and all the flowers were blooming wildly in the fields of the training camp.He also worked with Bi Zhongliang to encircle and suppress the red bandits in Jiangxi. At that time, Bi Zhongliang's head was scratched by shrapnel, a piece of scalp was torn off, and he almost passed out.Chen Shen, a former barber, carried Bi Zhongliang on his back on a desolate road where the long weeds almost covered half of their bodies.

Suddenly there was a gunshot, and a bullet shot from nowhere hit Bi Zhongliang's leg, and Bi Zhongliang let out a cry of pain.Chen Shen immediately helped Bi Zhongliang to lie down, and he knelt down beside Bi Zhongliang without moving. He felt that someone was gradually approaching them stepping on the weeds.

Chen Shen pointed his gun at the direction of the visitor, and the sound of the visitor stepping on the weeds came to Chen Shen's eardrums, and Chen Shen could hear the nervous beating in his heart at the same time.When the figure approached, he fired with a single shot, and the other person fell down in response, making a cry of pain, as if it was a boy's voice.

Chen Shen and Bi Zhongliang walked forward cautiously. A twelve or thirteen-year-old Japanese boy was lying on his back in the grass. He was hit in the abdomen by Chen Shen's shot just now. He was panting weakly, with blood bubbling in his abdomen. popped out loudly.The Japanese teenager tried his best to shoot with his gun.Chen Shen kicked the gun away from the Japanese boy's hand, but Chen Shen's hand holding the gun was shaking, and he couldn't fire a second shot.The Japanese boy saw Chen Shen's hesitation, he gave Chen Shen a provocative look, stood up with support and stared at him.

Bi Zhongliang yelled "Kill that Japanese boy".Just when Chen Shen was hesitating, the Japanese boy suddenly took out a small knife from his body and flew towards Chen Shen. In desperation, Chen Shen shot again, directly hitting the Japanese boy's forehead.Almost at the same time, the knife flew across Chen Shen's cheek, leaving a bloodstain on his face.

Chen Shen looked at the Japanese boy who fell silently on the grass, his face full of horror, and he could no longer hold the gun in his hand.

Suddenly, Chen Shen woke up from the memory, covered his face with his hands and said, "You know, I tried many times, but it didn't work. Or just follow what my sister-in-law said, and you transfer me to the General Affairs Department. I also If you don’t want to be a section chief, you can just work under Niu Yiping’s hand.”

Bi Zhongliang was a little angry, and he said seriously: "Nonsense! In the whole operation department, you are the only one I can really trust. You don't want to go anywhere, just stay by my side. Starting tomorrow, I will interrogate the 'Prime Minister'. "Bi Zhongliang glanced at Chen Shen, "You go with me."

Chen Shen strongly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said calmly: "You know I don't like to take care of these things, let's forget this time, and next time? I can't do anything to women."
