Chapter 1 Girl's Three Fathers

一
The moonlight shone grayly on the black beach, and at the brightest moment, it was not as white as the bodies of some girls swimming at night.Today's tide is 21 o'clock, so there are many people swimming at night along the beach along Huandao Road.Because the night covered the changing face of the sky, the swimmers rushed ashore in panic when they felt the sea water and sky water suddenly mingled densely.On the beach, there was a echoing sound that seemed to be smashed by the rain, one after another.

On the high coastline, the road around the island winds.Three men ran across the red gum sidewalk and opened the door of a taxi that had just parked in the black driveway.The taxi driver originally stopped for two men and a woman in bath towels, and the girl waved her blue and white swim ring to hail a taxi.However, three men rushed in.In the heavy rain, it was not clear whether there was any argument between them, but it could be seen from the car that the actions of the three men were involuntary, exuding a violent air.The person sitting next to my brother was shirtless and wearing a pair of black-rimmed myopia glasses.Under the big and short fleshy nose, the triangular nostrils are very large.The two people behind were wearing one white and one black vests.The three of them definitely didn't come up from the sea. As soon as they entered the air-conditioned car, they felt a strong smell of sweat.

North Station freight yard.Shirtless glasses said.

The elder brother stretched out his hand to the empty license plate, hesitating for a moment.The place is so remote that experienced night shift drivers are reluctant to leave.As if to dispel my brother's worries, he said with shirtless glasses and said, "I'll pick up some goods and come back in your car."

Brother turned over the empty license plate.It sounds like a northern Fujian dialect, and my brother is not in the mood to get close.

In-car traffic radio is still reporting the news:
...For a week, the province's traffic and patrol police departments have strengthened checkpoint checks and control, and the "Falcon" chase and escape operation has achieved remarkable results.On the morning of August [-]th, when East Fujian traffic police set up checkpoints at the peak checkpoint, they arrested Yang Jianguo, a fugitive who was wanted on the Internet for bombing and killing people from Western Fujian.On the afternoon of August [-]th...

The shirtless glasses reached out and turned off the radio.

A voice in the back seat said, what's the matter, I love to hear it.

…As of July 30, the provincial police had captured more than 1000 fugitives during the 61 days of the "Falcon"'s pursuit, including one fugitive wanted by the Ministry of Public Security, one fugitive wanted by the Ministry of Public Security, and one wanted by the provincial governor. Four fugitives, [-] murder fugitives...

Someone behind him laughed abruptly.

Brother glanced at the rearview mirror, feeling gloomy.It was raining and foggy outside the car, and the heavy rain did not abate in the slightest. The wipers were frantically hitting, which made people even more restless.I have already passed the extension of Huandao Road, the road surface is getting bumpier and narrower, and there are no street lights in front of me.

The North Railway Station freight yard has already opened, but the shirtless glasses keep saying, it's just ahead!Just a little earlier!
There are no streetlights at all.In the heavy rain and mist, outside the car is a stone quarrying site and miscellaneous forests. After driving through a large casuarina forest, there is a small fishing village.My brother knew that he was in danger.

The voice behind said, slow down, I kind of don't recognize the intersection - slow down! --Hey!Did you hear me!Tell you to slow down!That guy suddenly roared, and my brother's speed has been reduced to fifteen kilometers.He felt someone move his right shoulder from behind, and at the same time, a thin rope like a soft steel bar suddenly strangled his neck.Fortunately, he was quick, with his left hand inserted between his neck and the rope, he could feel the strength of the guy behind him.The out-of-control car twisted in the rain and almost ran across the road.The shirtless glasses pushed the lever to the parking gear, and slammed the handbrake, and then, the right brother searched up and down.My brother panted and said, let go!I cooperate...

No one answered.Shirtless and glasses hit him on the calf with a dagger, motioning for his brother to take off his shoes.The man poured out my brother's shoes, searched the shoes one by one, and then lifted the driver's seat mat. Sure enough, there was a pile of money and a passbook hidden under the mat next to the gearbox. .The shirtless glasses handed the money and passbook behind.The person behind said, password.

Brother pointed at the reining rope and said with difficulty: Let me... think about it... it's too tight.People in the back are a little more relaxed.My brother panted heavily, and straightened his body a little bit. Uh, my brother coughed. Didn’t I say it? Take it all away. Cough cough. Mom’s hands are so heavy. The password is...88...08...cough...cough ...

A dagger with shirtless glasses pierced his right forearm.My brother didn't feel any pain, but blood flowed out.At this time, there were white balls in front, and there seemed to be headlights approaching in the heavy rain. With one hand in the back seat, he pushed the baseball cap on Brother's head to cover Brother's face.Apparently it was the lights when they didn't want to rendezvous, so that Brother could see their faces clearly.However, the two Mitsubishi jeeps passing by each other, after driving seven or eight meters, paused and backed up quickly.The taxi was too late to start, and two Mitsubishi jeeps had pinned their car.The three passengers were stunned, but they reacted quickly. They immediately let go of the rope and retracted the knife to help the brother's hat back.As soon as my brother opened his eyes, he saw four people in raincoats jumping off the jeep. The bright flashlights in their hands were as bright as white sticks in the dark rain and fog.

Someone opened the car door and shouted: Police!what happened? !
The brother put his baseball cap on his bleeding forearm and smiled at the policeman: It's okay, I can't get any money.

The two men in raincoats in front of the car turned their heads suspiciously, looking at the left and right behind them. Obviously, this is not a place to get off the car.My brother said, forget it, forget it, you all play, I don’t want the money!Get off!

The three of them immediately opened the car door, the one in the back seat of my brother, in a hurry, went to open the sealed left car door.My brother said, I'm sorry, you can only get off on the right side!The guy quickly jumped down from the right again.One of the three said thank you, his voice trembling in the wind and rain.All of a sudden, they ran like hiding from the rain.

The flashlights of the two men in raincoats shone on the car, and then followed the three figures flying fast.

My brother smiled, thank you police officer for your trouble!Those few are actually my worthless fellow villagers, and they didn't really want to pay me.It's useless to be noisy all the time.

Brother smiled and started the car.A man in a raincoat slammed the car door shut for him with his feet.In the heavy rain, the blue and white taxi sped away.The four men in raincoats walked towards their Mitsubishi jeep. Suddenly, the two stopped and looked at each other.

Something's wrong... There seems to be blood on the driver's neck?
Yes, why don't you turn on the interior light when you change money...

Someone in the car shouted, what did you find?Hey—why does anyone get off here? !

The police officers of the two vehicles all reacted. Obviously, they just missed a suspicious moment.

The two jeeps immediately turned around and chased the taxi, but in the heavy rain, there was no trace of the taxi.No one remembers the car number, and I don't blame them. Their main goal today is to chase and escape, and they set up a truck to check on the way back during the "Falcon" operation.Since the bumpkins are willing to fight and suffer, there is nothing you can do if they don't call the police.

In the end, a police officer said, maybe if their ID numbers are checked online, they will all be fucking fugitives!

The carload of people laughed.

The morning fog gradually dissipated, and the glazed tiles of the Tianjie Temple on Wulaofeng were covered with a layer of light golden sunlight.On the mountain behind the temple, a stone step extends down the mountain under the mist, connecting a small bluestone building halfway up the mountain.

Outside the stone house, there is a small green brick courtyard.The two waist-high wooden gates at the gate of the courtyard were half open, facing the stone steps going down the mountain.Two men and a four or five-year-old girl in a yellow silk skirt stood at the gate of the courtyard. The little girl tried to push the toes of her little leather shoes into the cracks in the wooden gate and asked the man in gray to push them.The man in gray bent down to help the little girl, and the tall man next to her grabbed her hand, pointed to the rusted butterfly piece on the doorpost and said, if you fall, you will roll down the mountain!
The little girl shook off his hand angrily, I don't want Lao Chen!

The girl tiptoed to ask the man in gray to carry her back.The man in gray knelt down and carried her on his back.They went down the stone steps first.

By the window on the second floor of the stone house, under the low curtains, a pair of binoculars was exposed, which was always facing the two men on the stone steps of the courtyard gate.Behind the curtains was a gentle man in a maroon silk nightgown, and a quiet beach-colored Spitz was sitting under his feet.This is Zhuo Shengfa, the landlord who lives alone.In the lens of the telescope, the little girl turned around and shouted at the stone house: Dao Daddy - hurry up -

A man locked the door and came out.His glaring gray hair contrasted quite with his strong figure with broad shoulders and straight legs.There was still a dark purple-red strangle mark on his neck, and the forearm of his right hand was still wrapped with yellow gauze.Several people went down the mountain.The tall man and the gray-haired man kept walking behind the gray-clothed man carrying the little girl.

It's too troublesome to come out, the tall man said, if it's just Tail's birthday, I really don't want to go to town.

The gray-haired man said, if you can feel at ease, you can try.

The tall man said, how to try, nonsense.

Gray-haired man: No one is forcing you.Anyway, you have been doing this for more than ten years, and you can feel at ease.

Tail has been panting a lot lately—the tall man changed the subject, squatted down at the slightest movement, and asked someone to carry her back. Tell me, why does her birthday happen to be on this day?The gray-haired man said, ask your sister.

It's not like you haven't seen her birthday written on the blanket that wrapped her!The tall man sighed imperceptibly, and said, every year on this day, I feel very weird.It was another sleepless night yesterday, the wind blowing upwards from the bottom of the fish raft was very cold, like a knife, it was not the wind in August at all.

The gray-haired man stopped and glanced at the tall man.The two were speechless.One after the other, they walked down the mountain.

The three men and the little girl got off the bus and entered a McDonald's restaurant around the corner of Botanical Gardens.Inside the glass door, a welcoming girl wearing a hoopoe headdress said, Oh, what a beautiful kid!
Release the birthday song!The little girl said, like last time, let everyone hear Chen Yangxin's happy birthday!

Hoopoe laughed, yes.It's a reservation, right?Come, this way please!
Of the three men, only the gray-haired man smiled slightly, and the other two showed no expression.After taking his seat, the tall man squatted down and retied the loose shoelaces for the little girl.Hoopoo said, wait until mommy comes to play happy birthday, eh?She pointed to the tall man and said, this is Dad, right?The tall man made a fuzzy expression, and the little girl said loudly, he is Lao Chen!This is Tao Daddy, this is my little daddy!

Hoopo couldn't react, she didn't seem to know how to face a child's joke.The man in gray booed his tail with his fingers to show that she talked too much.The tall man said, hurry up, we still have something to do.The gray-haired man was also looking at his watch.

Happy birthday songs echoed in the restaurant, and the little girl in a yellow skirt wearing a birthday paper crown danced in circles with four or five children.The three men were silent, they all looked at the dancing little girl in yellow dress.

Several waitresses found that the silent expressions of the three men were not in harmony with the lively and cheerful expression of the little girl.Until they took the child out, several waitresses were still quietly discussing who was the real father of the little girl.

It was raining lightly, and there were few people in the park.The three men led the child holding a birthday balloon into the Wanghe Pavilion in the northwest corner of the lake.Outside the pavilion, on one side are densely planted golden silk bamboos, on the other side are galangal and bright red canna.The gray-haired man took out a few sticks of incense and a small incense burner from his canvas pocket, and poured rice on the small incense burner.The tall man took out a travel teacup from his bag, which was newly brewed in the restaurant, and he also took out a small bottle of wine and poured it into a paper cup.Man in gray and little girl doing origami.It was also a birthday present from the restaurant.

The gray-haired man lit three sticks of incense, bowed his head facing northwest in silence for a long time, and then put the incense on the small incense burner; the tall man also lit three sticks of incense, facing northwest.He clasped his palms and closed his eyes, and remained still for a long time, cigarettes lingering in his palms.The wind blowing from outside the pavilion sent the drizzle on his face in bursts. He remained motionless and did not open his eyes.The gray-haired man looked at him, took a deep breath, turned around and smoked.

In a corner of the lake, lotus flowers are blooming among the broken branches and leaves, and egrets are flying low in the sky, looking for fish swimming in the crevices of the lotus leaves.A man who seems to be a professional photographer, constantly changing his posture, is photographing a deep purple lotus in the drizzle.

The tall man put the incense into the censer, and the man in gray stood up.He also lit three sticks of incense, and after bowing and praying, he knelt down.He knelt for a long time, and the other two men didn't look at him, they were smoking cigarettes facing the lake.

The little girl holding a half-folded paper crane stood behind the kneeling man.After waiting for a long time, the little girl knocked on his back: It's all right!The man in gray got up and put the incense into the small incense burner.Inside the small incense burner, there are nine sticks of incense.

The man photographing the lotus turned the camera to the pavilion, and the three men naturally turned around, with their backs to him.

The man in gray said, the Yi I mentioned last time knew about it.

The gray-haired man said, which one?
The man in gray: The sheriff who was transferred at the end of last year.Didn't I tell you that he recognized my North Fujian Xilong accent as soon as he arrived, and immediately told me about it, saying that he was still an intern at the time, and that was the first major family extermination case he experienced; in the middle of last night, we After we finished our work, we went for a walk together with Haxiu, and he talked about that incident again.He said he was very impressed.

Tall Man: Did he say anything?
The man in gray shook his head.He took a deep breath of the cigarette in his hand, and then extinguished the red cigarette end directly on his finger.

The nine sticks of incense gradually burned to the end, and the gray-haired man began to pack up the incense burner and other items. He said, I remember once you said that he treated you well.It seems that I appreciate you very much, so don't worry too much, just work hard.I have to go, it's almost shift time - have you got your keys?he asked the man in gray.

The man in gray took out a key, looked at the tall man, and said, Bijue, do you still want to go back to the stone house?

Tall man: Forget it, I'll take my tail to a bookstore and go straight back to the island.The day passed.

The little girl was a little melancholy and said, I don't like living fish steaks anymore.I want to live in a stone house, why can't I live with Dao's father and Xiaofeng's father?The gray-haired man patted her head and said, because no one takes care of you.We both have to go to work.

Then can I come when I go to school?Old Chen said that in two years I would be able to go to school when I was seven years old.I will take care of myself.

The man in gray laughed, you black child without a registered permanent residence, you still want to go to school.

A blue and white taxi drives on the viaduct.Under the bridge, it joins the traffic jam.In the car, two passengers, one in front and one behind, were very anxious.The gray-haired man sitting in the driver's seat picked up the large mineral water bottle next to the handbrake and drank slowly.The traffic jam was barely moving.The passenger in the passenger seat pointed to the "employment certificate" inserted in front of the windshield and said, I remember your name, Yang Zidao!I can't catch the plane today, I will definitely complain to you!
My brother turned the bottle cap and said, I told you before that it is very congested here at this time.

The passenger in the front row said, if you are talking on your mobile phone all the way, you will naturally drive slowly, otherwise we would have missed this traffic jam!How can a taxi driver make a phone call while driving?
I'm sorry, brother no longer smiles.He said, our little girl fainted suddenly.It's her birthday today, and I'm worried.

The passenger in the back seat said, "Okay, fourth, don't take your anger out on the master."Let him concentrate on driving - master, how is your daughter doing now?

Her brother said that her father took her home first.It should be fine.

The passenger in the front row said that he was someone else's child for half a day!Damn, should I be in a hurry!
Brother didn't speak any more, he focused on looking out of the car, he was watching the traffic and the traffic police that were not moving as the lights gradually came on outside the window.

The blocked traffic flow finally loosened up.It can be seen that my elder brother Yang Zidao's driving skills are quite good. He starts lightly and speeds up, and nimbly dodges left and right.

The car drives well.Master, how old are you?Said the rear passenger.

Ben four friends.

This hair is white!Driving a taxi is hard work!
Fortunately, my brother smiled and said, after all, there are few unruly customers.

The front passenger leaned at him.When I arrived at the airport and waited for the ticket to be printed, the passenger in the front row said sternly, "You're laughing so fakely all the way, it's so fucking annoying!"My brother is even more smiling, true, can you earn money from a person like you?

Coming out of the airport, my elder brother Yang Zidao brought two short-distance guests along the way.I drove through Zijin Avenue all the way, and when I turned into the Zijin Community where the customer was staying, I saw a woman squatting by the hedge next to the bus stop.After seeing off the guest, he saw the woman again, who seemed to be lying on the ground.Several people stood in front of her.As soon as the bus came, those people left her and chased after it.

Yang Zidao had already driven past, but thinking about it, he turned a circle and drove back.The woman is still lying there.Yang Zidao stopped the car and looked around.Several passers-by said in confusion, fainted!There must be an emergency!The woman's long hair was sticky with sweat sticking to her face, and there was a yellow, yellow and white vomit-like hang around her mouth, but she was dressed in clean casual shorts and a T-shirt, she didn't look like a homeless person.Yang Zidao hesitated, but the person next to him said, you have a car, take her to the hospital!
Yang Zidao got out of the car and looked around, hoping that there was a hospital nearby, so as not to delay him for too long, the people waiting for the bus immediately pointed out enthusiastically, over there!there!On the other side of the corner, that white house is a community medical service station!Yang Zidao had no choice but to carry the woman into the car.When he hugged him, he was suddenly a little angry with himself, since they were so close, why did these people insist on letting him do this?He hated himself for being so fucking nosy.

When he got to the service station, he really regretted it.It was a small service station, the lights were dim, and several medical staff had a bad attitude.Yang Zidao called the emergency number for the woman and wanted to leave, but was grabbed by a nurse-looking man and said, pay the deposit first!Yang Zidao hurriedly explained that he didn't know this woman and was just passing by to help her.The nurse shouted loudly, do you think I am a government relief station?Don't let him go.Only then did Yang Zidao realize that the unconscious woman didn't have a bag, maybe she didn't bring it, or maybe it had been stolen by someone taking advantage of the chaos.

Yang Zidao paid an advance payment of [-] yuan for the woman in frustration.The nurse said it would cost five hundred, but Yang Zidao said that he had just finished his shift and didn't have that much money.The nurse even refused to let him go, saying, you have to wait for her to wake up!Either you contact her family.Yang Zidao had no choice but to sit in the crude observation room, hoping that the woman who received the infusion would wake up soon.In the dim light of the service station, Yang Zidao found that this sweaty, pale-faced woman was actually very young and beautiful, and her eyebrows and eyes looked a bit like Xin Xiaofeng.Xin Xiaofeng is a handsome man.Thinking of this, Yang Zidao called Xin Xiaofeng and told him about the fainted tail.Xin Xiaofeng didn't answer the phone.Bored, call again, still no answer.Yang Zidao called Bijue again, and it was Wei Wei who answered, and Wei Wei said, Lao Chen went to the shore to buy fresh water.Said he was well and was eating cauliflower.

The young woman finally woke up.Yang Zidao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that at least he could get back the money he had paid in advance.The woman was not surprised to see her situation. She turned her head and muttered, "Where is the bag... It's menstrual cramps... It happens every month... Thank you for sending me here... Where is my bag?"
The young woman's voice was very weak and muffled, but everyone could hear it.When Yang Zidao heard this, his head grew dizzy.Sure enough, everyone looked at him, as if he was responsible for the bag.The nurse pointed at him and said, this man brought you here!I wanted to leave as soon as I came, but I was caught.Miss, please contact your family!

The young woman looked at Yang Zidao weakly, as if he was in charge of her bag.Yang Zidao walked over and said angrily, I was driving a taxi, and you passed out at Zijin Station.I didn't see your bag. If you don't believe me, you can search it in my car.If you don't believe me, I have nothing to say, at worst I will give you the deposit.Unlucky for me!I've been delayed for over an hour.I'm leaving!

Hey...wait for me, master...I want to take your car home, I have money to go home...

The woman burst into tears, not sure if it was because her stomach still hurts or because she was distressed about her bag, she cried inexplicably, a little blasphemy, Yang Zidao was at a loss for what to do.The female doctor with a mighty expression ordered, "Hey, do your best to the end, wait for the patient, I'll ask about the condition and prescribe some medicine."Yang Zidao was extremely irritable, but he had no choice but to stand aside.

The young woman was so tired of being familiar with her condition, she muttered that the pain was severe because the doctor said that her endometrium had "Qin Ling", so every time menstruation was a big event, she often had to rely on burping Du Lengding passed.The whole family was afraid of her menstruation, and never dared to let her be alone when her period was approaching. Unexpectedly, this time it came too early.The doctor heard that there are two ways, one is to get married and have children, and everything will be fine for you!Second, you can find me moxibustion and massage, which is passed down from your ancestors.Some girls are very effective!

Finally figured out the medical service station.

The young woman curled up on the back seat in a strange posture, and when the car bumped a lot, she whimpered.Yang Zidao looked at her from the rearview mirror, feeling that he was unlucky all the way.He said, does it still hurt?

better.The woman is weak, the master who originally had a lot of money in my bag.

I didn't take your bag.Yang Zidao said.

I didn't go through your trunk.

Yang Zidao almost jumped up and slammed on the brakes.The woman burst out laughing, the laughter was also dying, she said, teasing you, old man.A fool would steal my bag and send me to the hospital.You are not that stupid, are you?
Yang Zidao secretly sighed, he felt that he was indeed a fool.The prime time tonight is basically scrapped.

The girl's home is in Yundang Lijing Community, a wealthy area by the Yundang Lake.When passing the security gate of the community, she stretched out her hand to wave, and the electric gate slid open.Bypassing the lush atrium and the two badminton practice courts, the taxi drove all the way to the front of her house.The girl said in the back seat, if you don't trust me, I will take the money down, so you can help me upstairs.

Yang Zidao turned his head to look at the girl, turned off the engine and got out of the cab, and opened the door for the girl.In the elevator, the girl leaned against the corner of the elevator listlessly, as if she was about to slide down to the ground at any moment.Yang Zidao saw that the nurse hadn't wiped away the disgusting vomit at the corner of her mouth, so he turned his eyes away.The girl said, you sent me upstairs because you were afraid of relying on your money after I went up, right?

Yang Zidao didn't understand, her voice was so weak that it was as thin as a floating thread.Can be so chatty.

is not it?
Yang Zidao nodded.

Yes, I can see that you are a cheapskate.The girl was dying and said, Nuan, is your wife very fierce?Kung fu king?
Yang Zidao looked at her incomprehensibly.The girl pointed to the bloodstains on his neck, then pointed to the gauze bandage on his forearm, and said, if there is a fight at the head of the bed and a fight at the end of the bed, you will have no place to make up.

Yang Zidao ignored her and focused on the elevator floor indicator light on the 21st floor, and the elevator door opened.There are two households in one elevator. Outside the elevator door, a couple in their sixties and a nanny-like person are waiting. As soon as they see the girl, everyone yells: I'm so anxious!Don't call, hit you and turn off the phone!what happened!The girl seemed to be extremely wronged, and immediately began to cry: Hey, I almost died...

They all rushed into the house, but the father did not enter, and looked at Yang Zidao with a questioning eye.

Yang Zidao said, I am the taxi driver, and I brought her here.she is sick.Just got out of the clinic.

The girl collapsed on the sofa in the living room and waved her hand, and gave him 500 yuan. He paid for the hospital, and he sent me to the hospital to save me.

The mother came over immediately, and the father also put on a very friendly expression and said, thank you thank you!Kind people!Immediately took out the wallet and handed over the money.Yang Zidao shook his head, not five hundred.Give me 320 seven yuan.Three hundred is for the hospital, and 27 yuan is for the bus fare.

The girl came over, took five hundred from her father, and handed it to Yang Zidao.And your travel expenses for taking me to the hospital.That's all.You leave me a phone number, I may have to go to the doctor for moxibustion.

The night of the fish steak is deserted and vast.Like scabs on the surface of the sea, there are grids of breeding cages.In the sky, the black sky is infinite and far-reaching, and the stars and the moon are cold.This area is a marine breeding area. Small households have more than a dozen or twenty grid cages, and large households have seventy to eighty or even hundreds of grid cages.There is a simple cabin in the middle of each cage.The breeders who take care of the cages live inside.In front of the cabins on the fish rafts of every family, there is a large three-bladed fan, which generates electricity independently by the wind. When the wind is insufficient, each wooden house on the fish rafts emits a reddish light.Farm workers work hard during the day and fall asleep listening to the radio at night. Therefore, the lights in the cabins often last until eight or nine o'clock and then go out one after another.

Bijue turned out to be a sailor on a boat, not the ocean-going type, but an employee of a local fisherman's family. Except for the fishing moratorium in May and June, he was fishing in the open sea for ten days and a half a month.Three years ago, a severe typhoon of category [-] knocked Bihui and her brother-in-law, who were taking care of the fish farming, into the sea and became forever missing.

Boss Yu Lin felt guilty because he didn't force Bijue's sister and brother-in-law to go ashore, and he didn't even notify them in a serious tone.Many fish raft owners have this selfish intention, because of the typhoon, they are more worried about the loss of unattended fish raft farming due to strong wind and waves.Boss Lin gave Bihui's parents in his hometown a satisfactory compensation.Chen Bijue also accepted his invitation to take over the positions of Bihui and his wife, and stayed with his tail on the Lin family fish raft reconstructed in Jinyuan Bay.

In the night sky of the fish rafts in the suburbs, the wind is clear and smooth, and the sky is filled with delicate stars of metallic white.In Jinyuan Bay, what echoes the Tibetan black starry sky is the lonely light of Boss Lin’s fish steak cabin on the sea surface.Tail lay on the mat at the front desk of the cabin to watch the stars, with a telescope beside him.Bijue was cleaning the pulverizer under the light bulb raised by the bamboo pole on the right. He just used the pulverizer to pulverize two square plates of fish food.Time to sleep, tail.I'm almost there.

When you are well, I'm going to turn off the lights and look at it for a while.Tail said, your light made me unable to recognize Hydra.

The Hydra is a spring sign, and it's the end of September and it's well below the horizon.

The little dad said that today they caught the bad guy, and the bad guy released a lot of snakes.Some are poisonous and some are not.Is Hydra a poisonous snake?In spring, you forgot to teach me to recognize.

Hydra is not easy to recognize. In the past few months, it has almost crossed the entire southern sky.Although it is the largest constellation among the 88 constellations, it has no dazzling bright stars.It is a red second-magnitude star in the heart of the snake, and the other stars are even dimmer.When spring comes, you can see for yourself.Brush your teeth and sleep.

Tell me the story of Hydra, okay?As soon as I finished speaking, I fell asleep.

Say what you say.Bijue said that the Hydra is a big water snake, which is the incarnation of the water snake spirit Xu Dela.It has nine heads, and the mouth of each head can spit out poisonous gas, which is harmful to people.Moreover, if you cut off one head, two more heads will be born immediately, which is even more fierce.Later, the hero Hercules came, the same Hercules you know who killed the lion spirit, and he took his nephew Iolaus to find the hydra.Hercules cut off one of the Hydra's heads with a sword, and Iolaus immediately burned its wound, so that its new head could not grow back. In this way, they killed Hydra together.Zeus, the god of heaven, raised the water snake spirit to the sky and became the constellation Hydra.

——Blind, so short?not count!Too short to count!
Well, I'll tell you again tomorrow, about Corvus and Baron.

Tail got up from the straw mat, humming and chirping to brush his teeth on the other side of the boat.

At the west end of the small house, there is a kitchen of about one square meter.There are two 1.2-meter-high blue plastic barrels at the door, which are fresh water for daily use.Her tail is not as high as a freshwater bucket, and she is also small among children of the same age.She dragged the small stool and stood up to scoop up water to brush her teeth.

Lao Chen, there is no water.

Bijue has stood up.He was afraid of the depth of the water, so the little guy fell into the bucket.He filled the brushing cup and washbasin with fresh water.

As soon as the cabin enters the door, it is a three-meter-square small hall for eating and storing sundries. Opposite the old coffee table for eating is a hardwood double-decker bed. Winter clothes, mosquito nets, potato chips and yogurt, and messy books: "Mystery of the Tenth Planet", "Starry Sky—Garden of the Gods", "English and Chinese Astronomy Terms", "Life and Death Stars" Family, The Burning Sun, and a host of astronomy magazines at the foot of the bed.

Bijue sleeps on the lower bunk.The tail bed is an extension of the right front of the Bijue bed, like a lowercase "d", and the child sleeps on the head end of the vertical row.It turned out that Bihui and his wife slept on the bunk bed in the small hall, where the child slept, and she slept there since she was a child.

People go to bed earlier in the night in the fish farming port than in the city or even in the country.The fish rafts with the lights off melted into the darkness one by one, and the sea and sky were deep and lonely, swallowing all the light and sound.Bijue walked outside the cabin, closed the small window in front of Taiwei's bed, and turned off the light when he returned to the small hall.There is a large blue glass window across the coffee table. Lying on the bed, he can see the incomplete Boers seat outside the window.He remembered that the Hydra Constellation that he had just mentioned to Tail, in the legends of the ancient Arabs, the Hydra is actually a constellation of lonely people.

Lying down can best feel the hidden hustle and bustle of the sea level. Even on such a calm day today, you can still feel the strong shaking of the sea water.It pushes your back, swaying into your heart, rippling, swaying, rippling endlessly, until the depths of sleep.Bijue caressed himself, trying not to make any noise. In fact, the howling of life collided with such a vast and empty millennium black silence. It was just a struggle more helpless than a dog barking. Empty and hopelessly moist.

Yi Guchun stood at the window of the second police district office and smoked.

From the window, he could see a few guys who couldn't stand up straight in handcuffs in the patio downstairs.Since the "Falcon" chase and escape operation this month, everyone has been very busy.Last night, I hunted down a fugitive from the Guangdong poisoning case reported by the masses. I didn’t expect that the old man was engaged in the supply of snakes for restaurants. There are snakes all over the place.A cobra stands halfway up by a cage.All the people were dumbfounded and their faces changed.On the other side of the window, the fugitive smashed the glass window with a stool and was about to jump out.Xin Xiaofeng rushed over and walked through the living room full of snakes.The old man who poisoned him was pinned tightly on the window sill by him.

Yi Guchun kept thinking, why is this guy so unafraid of death.In the evening, when the brothers drank snake soup together, facing everyone's admiration, Xin Xiaofeng just said lightly, there are so many people, it doesn't matter if they really bite.Yi Guchun thought, this is a man with amazing courage.But Yi Guchun has always refused to admit that he has a good impression of him. I can't say why. It's his taciturnity and his eyes. I can't tell. Anyway, he always gives him an elusive feeling.

However, all the policemen and assistant policemen in the police district knew that the person Chief Yi admired the most was Xin Xiaofeng.

Yi Guchun was transferred from Xilong City in northern Fujian a year ago.Southwest University of Political Science and Law graduates are allocated there.For more than ten years, the parents have made a lot of efforts to transfer their only son back to them. Until their business has grown in recent years, they suddenly have the ability to call the wind and rain.The transfer was successful.As usual, Yi Guchun was downgraded and transferred to the special zone, from the vice captain of the criminal police of Xilong City's serious crime team to an ordinary sheriff of the second police district of a police station.The ultimate wish of the parents is for their son to go to sea and inherit his father's career.However, Yi Guchun has no interest in business management, and his parents' increasingly strong financial strength only maintains and strengthens the purest professional mentality, making him detached from ordinary power.Nothing could buy him off, and there wasn't much room for extrajudicial affairs.

During the handover, the ex-sheriff with a vivid language told him that among the dozen or so policemen in the Second Police District, who was "a hammer", who was "a bomb", who was "a small marble", and who was "Xiu Cai", who is a "pillow without embroidery", introduced Xin Xiaofeng. The former police chief said that this is "a sharp knife that breaks in the wind".Xin Xiaofeng, who is in his early thirties, has been a police assistant for seven or eight years. He has joined the police assistant brigade since the establishment of the sub-bureau. Strictly speaking, he joined the assistant police brigade half a month after it was established.At that time, he was still a waiter at the Yuzhou Hotel every night.On the way to work, two gangsters on motorcycles robbed a woman of her bag. He rushed up on a broken Qingqi, knocked down the motorcycle, and scuffled with the opponent who had a knife.Two-on-one, the back was cut open, the white shirt was half red, and the passers-by were frightened, but there was no one to help.But Xin Xiaofeng clung to one of them tightly. At a critical moment, a car of police officers from the sub-bureau in physical training passed by, and all the policemen in Zhongbali rushed down.The deputy director in the car was satisfied as soon as he saw Xin Xiaofeng, asked a few words on the spot, and called him on the spot to ask the boss of Yeye Yuzhou who he knew from the beginning.The deputy director directly asked for someone.The boss said that your new team is really short of people, so I'll find another one for you.Unexpectedly, the director said stop talking nonsense and let him choose.The boss thought that the police team's low salary of two to three hundred at that time would not be able to poach his own people, but Xin Xiaofeng would rather lose more than 300 yuan a month, so he really left with the police.

It took seven or eight years to do this.Now, Yi Guchun is here.

From everyone's point of view, Xin Xiaofeng's eyes are clear and clear, but the strange thing is that Yi Guchun sometimes feels the haze passing through its flickering. illusion.But Yi Guchun knew that this was not an illusion.

In any case, Xin Xiaofeng never got involved in the pre-analysis and worry, or the excitement after success, or the frustration of failure, or after-the-fact chatter.He is always quiet, silent, and efficient.He was always in a corner, smoking a cigarette, and the butts of the cigarettes he smoked were always slowly grinded by him.Yi Guchun found that he would not let the cigarette butts be extinguished in the ashtray at all, but always squeezed the red cigarette butts directly on his left finger.Then, with the hot cigarette butt and tobacco, he slowly twisted it between his fingers.Until the cigarette butts become powder.Some people deliberately use his hands as ashtrays, and he will not refuse them, just take them and twist them.It seemed that this gave him great pleasure.Yi Guchun felt that the heart of this character was by no means as handsome as his appearance.

On the day Yi Guchun came to report for duty, he picked up a shivering little yellow dog that was abandoned due to skin disease under the bulletin board of the temporary residence permit at the entrance of the office.He adopted it and named it Ha Xiu.Ha Xiu found that among the people in the office, no matter the police or the auxiliary police, only Yi Guchun, Xin Xiaofeng, and the aunt who cooks in the cafeteria treat him the best.

After a busy day, as long as he lives in the police dormitory, no matter how hard it is, no matter how late the night is, Xin Xiaofeng will lead Ha Xiu to run in the kapok park next to the office.Therefore, at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, it is very common for Xin Xiaofeng to walk or run and chase the dog in the park.Sometimes, Xin Xiaofeng doesn't live in the police dormitory, so Yi Guchun also takes Ha Xiu to do so.In this regard, the two of them are very similar.Later, Xin Xiaofeng's activities were mastered by the gang of stealing bicycles. One month, the crazy Xin Xiaofeng arrested nineteen people by himself.In the middle of the night, five guys were waiting in the depths of the betel nut forest. One suddenly cast a net and caught Ha Xiu, while the others rushed up and beat Xin Xiaofeng violently.Coincidentally, Yi Guchun, who was on duty, strolled over afterwards, and Xin Xiaofeng was not beaten to death.However, both of them were injured, and Yi Guchun was seriously injured.

After that, Xin Xiaofeng still walked the dog in the middle of the night, but with a knife on his body.But from now on, as long as Yi Guchun is around, he will try his best to go out with Xin Xiaofeng.

If Yang Zidao has been working until the dawn of the shift, he will fill up the car and drive directly to Kangle New Village to hand over to the day shift driver.If Yang Zidao was too tired and wanted to leave work at two or three in the morning, he would drive to Kangle New Village first, park near the corridor of the day shift driver, and then walk home to sleep.

The owner of the car asked Yang Zidao why he didn't live in Kangle, because it was so convenient to change shifts.Yang Zidao said that it only took him ten, twenty or ten minutes to run from the small road to Tianjie Mountain. He was used to living with his brother, and he could exercise. Besides, the landlord was not bad.Actually, Yang Zidao lied.He didn't like the landlord named Zhuo.From Yang Zidao and Xin Xiaofeng's point of view, no one likes that man except for that fox dog named Xiao Zhuo.Although he wears glasses, Sven is neat and tidy.That man always sees people with droopy eyelids, looking at you from the corner of his eye and talking to you.Yang Zidao heard faint crying in the middle of the night from time to time, he guessed it was coming from upstairs, but Xin Xiaofeng was skeptical, so who else is crying in this mountain?
Although they hate this landlord, they are all satisfied with this remote and clean environment.Because of Xiao Zhuo, Xin Xiaofeng was more polite to Zhuo Shengfa. When he was resting, he accepted his invitation to play chess in the yard a few times.However, the most intense conflict broke out between Xin Xiaofeng and the landlord. That day Xin Xiaofeng almost beat Zhuo Sheng up.

Before, Xin Xiaofeng and Yang Zidao had already quarreled.Xin Xiaofeng came back to stay irregularly, but all his personal daily necessities are here in Tianjie Mountain.Originally, there were only two old-fashioned small iron beds in this large bedroom, and a rosewood desk under the window, but they had already used it to place the TV set.There is a rosewood cabinet in front of the two small beds, which contain the personal items of the two, and they are not locked.Xin Xiaofeng got angry at Yang Zidao when he found out that his things had been moved.

I told you so!Don't keep flipping through my stuff! !

Yang Zidao was furious: I never touch your things!I warn you too!Don't be a fucking scumbag for a few days, just talk to me in this tone, I know as well as you - who the hell are you!
Xin Xiaofeng was stunned, and slammed a desk lamp out of the window, the bulbs shattered and splashed among the bougainvillea bushes on the rock.Landlord Zhuo Sheng heard the sound and rushed downstairs, but the closer he got to their door, the lighter his steps were.In the end, he quietly stood in front of their door, but unexpectedly, the door opened wide, and Xin Xiaofeng rushed out.Zhuo Sheng was taken aback.

In the room, Yang Zidao yelled, it's none of your business!go up!

Zhuo Shengfa said, I want to see if the things in my house are damaged. These will soon become cultural relics. By then, a table leg will be worth more than your life, you know?In the future, when you brothers fight, it is best to fight in the yard.

Yang Zidao roared, I will pay if I break it!

With professional sensitivity and experience, Xin Xiaofeng finally judged that the landlord Zhuo Shengfa had entered their house, peeking at their personal belongings.The brothers quickly relieved.It was also at that time that Yang Zidao found out that Xin Xiaofeng had a strange and almost funny secret notebook.The size of a business card, like a girl's address book.He cares a lot about it.

At that time, Xin Xiaofeng pressed an old pager on the small book, accurate to the edge, and later found that the pager had shifted too much from its original position.And at this time, Yang Zidao was running shifts.

Yang Zidao went to Xin Xiaofeng's bedside to watch the scene.At first he didn't understand the reason for Xin Xiaofeng's violent reaction.At that time, he picked up the small book, and Xin Xiaofeng snatched it away.Yang Zidao was in a daze. The brothers who grew up together had never been so petty.Xin Xiaofeng suddenly gave up and dropped the notebook.go away.

He knew what he meant by giving up protection.Originally, Yang Zidao didn't want to read it out of self-esteem, but later his curiosity overcame him, so he picked it up anyway.There is no phone number in it, 8191988, which is not a number either.There are no other weird things, one page is filled with the word "positive", about six or seven.Turning another page, there are still six or seven "positive".There are only five or six pages in total, and the last "positive" is only half written.He blurted out, did you catch someone?
Xin Xiaofeng stood at the window, looking outside.Hearing Yang Zidao's question, he turned around and looked straight at Yang Zidao.When Yang Zidao saw the abyss-like things in his eyes, he simply turned back time. "8191988" hit Yang Zidao like lightning in the night.Yang Zidao suddenly understood eight points, and his heart became tense for a while.

If there is a secret, this is probably a secret passageway.It is impossible for the landlord to understand.

Yang Zidao put the notebook back, and there was a plastic-covered photo inside, which was a group photo of the three of them in front of the gate of Xiamen University.The three of them were still young men, none of them smiled, their expressions were stiff, and their postures were very casual. Only Yang Zidao's eyes seemed to be fascinated by the wind.The date in the lower right corner of the photo is 1988.8.25, an old photo that is more than ten years old.Three people each have one.

Yang Zidao tidied up the small drawer and closed it.He walked up to Xin Xiaofeng and said, how about I leave the car tomorrow and I'll bring you back with a small lock.I'll help you set it up.Xin Xiaofeng was noncommittal.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, when Yang Zidao was installing the lock in the house, Zhuo Shengfa rushed in, what did I say?He said that the rental agreement was clearly written!Tenants are not allowed to change the status of indoor items without the permission of the landlord!Yang Zidao was overwhelmed with anger.Zhuo Shengfa said that a small lock is nothing, but these rosewood cabinets have been treasures for more than half a century, and it is good for you to use them. How can you brutally destroy cultural relics without saying hello?
OK, I'll greet you now, we need a lock.

Can you drill a hole and unlock it yourself when you live in a hotel?Simply inexplicable!If you have valuables, go to the bank safe deposit box to deposit them!If you lose it here, you will not be responsible!Zhuo Sheng stretched his waist to inspect the lock hole that Yang Zidao had drilled halfway through, and said angrily, this month's rent will be increased by [-] for you.Follow the rules!
Xin Xiaofeng knew about this, so he didn't say anything. He watched Yang Zidao drill half of the keyhole, and his finger bones cracked.

About half a month later, Xin Xiaofeng came back to the Heavenly Stone House suddenly, just in time to intercept Zhuo Shengfa who was groping around in their room.Xin Xiaofeng slapped his palms, hitting Zhuo Shengfa until he fell to the side of Yang Zidao's bed.Because of this, his waist was hit by the edge of the bed again, Zhuo Sheng grinned his teeth in pain, and couldn't breathe.
