C1064 Benefits of Land
I found a secluded spot and froze.
Sure enough, not long later, the sound of hurried footsteps came from another direction — —
When I was almost there, I suddenly stretched out my leg --
"Aiyo!" A muffled cry rang out, and his body directly fell forward.
Then I reached out and grabbed him by the back of the heart and pulled him back. Then I grabbed his arm and with a backhand I pushed him to the ground and lifted his chin.
In the dim light of the night, I could clearly see that this was the photographer.
"Brother Yi — —" He called out, his voice a little panicked.
I smiled. "Buddy, how can you run around? You can't run out here!"
"I — I —" He looked panicked.
I pulled him up. "Still running? If you run again, I'll break your legs! "
"Brother Yi — I — I — I don't dare!" He suddenly began to plead with me, as if he sensed that I had a knack for it.
"Cut the crap, say —" I said.
"Me. What did I say? " He looked at me.
"You know what you should say?" "No," I said.
"I …" He faltered.
"Why are you following me?" "No," I said.
"Me. "I'm curious." "No," he said.
"Bullshit!" I grabbed him by the neck and he started to scream.
"If you don't say it, I'll break your neck. I won't let you go back to Hsinghai!" I snapped.
"I say, I say —" he whined.
I let go. Are you really a professional photographer? "
"I'm not!" He said, "I'm an amateur photographer."
"Then what are you pretending to be a professional photographer for?" "No," I said.
"I was hired by the spring travel agency to work on photography." "No," he said.
"Other than the photography service, what other tasks do you have?" "No," I said.
"Watching you." "No," he said.
"Spying on me?" I said, "What do I have to watch? "I'm afraid this isn't the first time you've seen me today. You probably already know me, right?"
"Yes." He lowered his head in frustration.
"You were the one who followed me in the taxi that day, right?" "No," I said.
"Brother Yi, you, how did you know?" He looked at me.
"You were wearing sunglasses that day, and although they flashed across your face, I still vaguely remember how you looked like when you wore sunglasses. You should know why I took your picture today and made you wear sunglasses, right? " "No," I said.
"Ah —" He was somewhat surprised.
"Alright, stop squeezing the toothpaste. Speak honestly and tell me everything from start to finish. Otherwise, you will regret it!" "No," I said.
"This —" He looked embarrassed.
I held out my hand again, and he seemed a little frightened, and he said quickly," I said, I said, I said, I said it all out —
"Speak!" I lit a cigarette and took two puffs.
"Me. I work for a private detective agency. I specialize in extramarital investigations. " "No," he said.
"Ah —" I started and looked at him. "Go on!"
"Boss Hai is my customer. She paid me to follow you and let me investigate you." "No," he said.
I was shocked as if I had been struck by lightning. "You talk too much nonsense, if you continue spouting nonsense, I'll cripple you!"
"You can ask Boss Hai if you don't believe me." He acted like he was going all out and said, "Since you found out today, I won't hide anything anymore. At worst, I won't take on this business anymore and will just have to go through with it. At worst, I won't open this investigation. The task Boss Hai gave me was to investigate a woman who had frequent contact with you. I don't know her surname, I only know that her name is Ruo Meng.
She told me to find out who this Ruo Meng was. I followed you a few times and investigated a lot of channels, but I couldn't find the whereabouts of this woman called Ruo Meng. I even asked Boss Hai to get your laptop to check if you had any QQ records with Ruo Meng.
Also, Boss Hai gave me a key to your office, so I sneaked in to install a bug under the base of your desk lamp. On this trip, Boss Hai gave me the task of using my status as a photographer to do a good job with the cameraman service, and the other is to closely monitor your every move. Any woman who comes in contact with you must find out about it, and continue investigating the identity and whereabouts of that Ruo Meng, and go back to report to her.
"Alright, that's all. I've already said it, I've made a mistake in this business, I'm sorry about Boss Hai, I'll return the money to her when we get back. As for Brother Yi, you can do whatever you want to me."
I was stunned. I was stunned. I was stunned. The thing that I didn't want to hear the most happened. The scene that I didn't want to see happened!
Hai Zhu actually found a private investigator to investigate me following me. She was really determined to find out the whereabouts of this Ruo Meng, she was desperate to find out who this Ruo Meng was.
The people who have been following me these past few days were actually arranged by Hai Zhu.
The second bug in my office was installed by Hai Zhu.
Was Hai Zhu crazy?
Or am I crazy?
Or had the world gone mad?
My heart went cold, a sharp pain, a violent twitch.
"Actually, I didn't know Boss Hai at the beginning. Director Kong found me first and then introduced me and Boss Hai!" the photographer said again.
Kong Kun, she found Hai Zhu a private investigator!
Why would Kong Kun help Hai Zhu find a private detective? What was her purpose? Could it be that Hai Zhu saw her as a confidant and told her of her doubts about Ruo Meng? Kong Kun had offered to give Hai Zhu this rotten idea on her own accord, and Hai Zhu had agreed?
Why would Kong Kun do that? No wonder she hesitated when I mentioned the photographer last night.
Was it Kong Kun's idea for me and Ruo Meng to investigate with a private detective? Hai Zhu's brain shouldn't be this complicated. My head is aching, and it's starting to hurt more and more.
The photographer stared at me, his face full of frustration.
After a brief period of shock and confusion, I quickly calmed down and said to the photographer, "You're not allowed to tell anyone about Hai Zhu's visit to you!"
"Yes." The photographer nodded.
"Don't give back the money Hai Zhu gave you!" I said again.
The photographer looked at me, confused, confused, and alarmed.
"You completed your mission very well. You did very well, so you don't need to return the money!" I laughed suddenly, a little mournfully.
"I …"
"You and I are not allowed to tell Hai Zhu or Kong Kun what happened tonight. You are not allowed to tell anyone!" "No," I said.
He nodded, dazed.
"Just pretend that nothing happened tonight! You are also the cameraman with the group! " I said again.
He seemed to suddenly understand something as he nodded vigorously, "Brother Yi, don't worry. I know what to do. I understand. I know how to reply to Boss Hai. I was just a cameraman with the group, and I didn't see anything.
After returning, I reported to Boss Hai that after investigating for a period of time, I did not find any trace of Ruo Meng. I would return a portion of the money to Boss Hai, ending this investigation and ending this business. At the same time, I will also persuade Boss Hai to trust you. "
This fellow's brain reacted fast enough. He was good at speaking and began to act like a good person.
I looked at him in silence.
"I hope this matter will not affect your relationship with Boss Hai!" he said again, cautiously.
"You don't need to worry about that!" I said coldly.
His expression was a little awkward as he muttered: "I'm sorry, Brother Yi. I'm really sorry."
"If I didn't find out that you had exposed yourself, you wouldn't have said you were sorry, right?" "No," I said.
He bowed his head in shame.
"Okay, you can go. I hope you can fulfill your role as a photographer for the next few days. Of course, I don't want to see you following me and getting caught again! Next time, I'm afraid you won't be so lucky. " I said, "Also, I can tell you that I didn't come out tonight to see a woman."
"Yes, yes. Based on my investigation during this period of time, I actually found out that Brother Yi is a very upright man!" he said fawningly.
"You don't need to praise me!" "No," I said.
He quickly lowered his head again and stopped talking.
"Scram," I said.
He hurried away dejectedly.
When he was gone, I looked up at the subtropical stars, and I felt sad and cold.
I never dreamed that Hai Zhu would use a private detective to track me down. I never dreamed that Hai Zhu's suspicions would be so serious.
My heart suddenly hurts so much I can't help it.
After a short period of anger, I suddenly stopped blaming Hai Zhu. I even felt sorry for Hai Zhu, she has come this far because of me. If it wasn't for what I had done, would she have done this?
Did she do it, from another point of view, out of love for me, so much love that she was afraid of losing it? Wasn't it me who caused her suspicions? Am I not responsible for this?
I felt a deep guilt, and a great sense of remorse. This was for Hai Zhu.
I even felt despicable and shameless for what I had done.
I stood limp in the silent alley, leaning against the cold stone wall.
The night of the Tengchong was so tranquil and empty, with a bit of the sadness of the ancient times.1
My heart was a jumble of emotions, and in the midst of my shock there was great sadness and bitterness.
My body slowly slid down against the wall and I slumped on the flagstones. The cigarette in my hand burnt to the ground, hurting my skin. I shivered, and the cigarette fell to the ground.
At that moment, my cell phone rang. I saw that it was Hai Zhu.
When I saw Hai Zhu's phone call, my body violently trembled.
I stared blankly at Hai Zhu's phone call, actually a little frightened, did not dare to answer.
I'm not scared because Hai Zhu will know about my private detective business. I know that private detective won't tell Hai Zhu anything about what he and I did tonight, even if he talked to her on the phone. He knows what he's supposed to do. I don't have to worry about what this private detective is up to. Now that I've found him, he doesn't have to.
The phone rang and rang again and again, sounding strident in the silence of the night.
Finally, I took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.
"Bro, why did it take you so long to answer the phone?" Hai Zhu said.
"Hur hur." I managed a smile, tried to make my voice sound normal, and said in a flat voice, "I was walking outside. I didn't hear the phone."
"Oh, you haven't slept yet. Why are you outside so late at night?" Hai Zhu said.
"I'm on a tour around the old city. I want to see the old place more often." "No," I said.
"Hur hur, reminiscing about the past." Hai Zhu laughed.
"Something like that." "No," I said.
"It's not easy to make a trip back, it's good to take a walk!" Hai Zhu said.
"I wandered around alone!" I took the initiative.
"Yeah, I didn't ask who you were with!" Hai Zhu smiled.
"Wouldn't it be better if I told him myself!" "No," I said.
"Hur hur, what you're saying sounds like I'm investigating." Hai Zhu said.
I was speechless for a moment and then said, "You didn't call me to check the post?"
"Of course not. "I can't sleep by myself in my room. I miss you, I want to talk to you, I called you because you miss me, how can you understand that?" Hai Zhu said.
