Siheyuan: Start with a big car

After the manager left on his bicycle.

Fatty Yu gave the little mouse a thumbs up and said, "Good job, kid! I thought you were scared, but I didn't expect you to be so smart."

When the little mouse heard this, he looked confused: "Brother Yu, is this smart? I just said whatever I thought of just now."

After hearing this, Fatty Yu was speechless.
Because he knew in his heart that even if he had said those words just now, the manager would not believe him.

The manager came back after riding around on his bicycle.

He told the two that there was indeed a man named Xiao Qiuzi in the sawmill, but he had quit his job recently.

"That little Qiuzi lives in the big courtyard in the east. You can go to the courtyard and ask around and you'll find out."

The two men thanked the steward repeatedly with gratitude, and then set off on their journey, heading towards the slum in the east.

After arriving at the slum, it was still the little mouse who took the initiative to come forward.

With his cleverness, he found Xiao Qiuzi's home without much effort.

However, the door of Xiao Qiuzi's house was tightly locked, and there was a thick layer of dust on the door.

When Fatty Yu saw this situation, he was certain that Xiao Qiuzi might have left here for a long time.

At this moment, an enthusiastic aunt nearby noticed the two of them and took the initiative to come forward and ask with concern: "Are you here to look for Xiao Qiuzi?
He might be in the hospital taking care of his mother."

When the little mouse heard this, he quickly asked, "Auntie, which hospital is this?"

The aunt raised her hand and pointed, saying, "It's the People's Hospital next door."

The little mouse then asked in detail about the specific ward number where Xiao Qiuzi's mother was located. After finding out the details, he and Fatty Yu went to the hospital without stopping.

As soon as he stepped into the hospital, this became Fatty Yu's familiar "territory".

Fatty Yu first carefully confirmed the location of the ward, and then went straight to the hospital's logistics department.

He knew that he could get key information here.

After all, I am in charge of purchasing in the steel mill. I deal with these logistics personnel frequently on a daily basis, and we are very familiar with each other.

Fatty Yu raised his hand and knocked on the door of the logistics department.
After the door opened, Section Chief Liu from the hospital's logistics department saw that it was Fatty Yu. His face was full of surprise, and he greeted him enthusiastically: "Hey, isn't this Section Chief Yu! What brings you here?"

Fatty Yu smiled and waved his hand, responding, "Chief Liu, please stop teasing me.

I am just a buyer, how can I be compared with a section chief like you who works in a formal organization? "

As he spoke, Fatty Yu took out a Great China cigarette from his pocket and handed it over.

Section Chief Liu took the cigarette with a smile, put it behind his ear and said, "Brother Yu, don't be modest.

Although you are a purchaser, the workshops in your steel mill are well-known throughout the country. Being in charge of purchasing there, you have much more power than the general logistics department chief. "

Fatty Yu was still preoccupied with the investigation at the moment, so he had no time to chat with Section Chief Liu.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, he went straight to the point and asked about a patient's condition: "Chief Liu, I came here this time to inquire about Aunt Qiu. Do you know anything about her condition?"

Upon hearing this, Section Chief Liu sighed and said, "You are talking about Aunt Qiu, right?

Alas, this old lady is such a miserable person. Her illness was not serious at the beginning. If she had paid more attention and come to the hospital earlier, she could have been cured easily.

But her husband passed away early, and life was not easy for her to raise the child alone. She kept carrying on, and as a result, the situation has become what it is now.

A while ago, our hospital invited a specialist to consult with her, and the results were not optimistic. If she didn’t have surgery, her life would be in danger.”

Fatty Yu asked, "What about Aunt Qiu's son?
Where is he now?"

Section Chief Liu frowned, thought for a moment and said, "His son, Xiao Qiuzi, seems to be very busy recently, and I can only see him once in a while.

In my opinion, he is probably trying to collect money for the surgery. As you know, the cost of this kind of surgery is not a small amount of money. "

Hearing this, Fatty Yu's heart skipped a beat. He was certain that this little Qiuzi was most likely the one who kidnapped Jia Zhang.

He immediately made a decision to let Little Mouse stay in the hospital and keep a close eye on Aunt Qiu's movements. He then got on his bicycle and rushed back to the steel mill in a hurry to report this important situation to Li Weidong.

Seeing that Fatty Yu had successfully found the key clues in such a short time, Li Weidong could not help but praise him and said, "Great, Fatty Yu! Your ability to get things done is getting better and better, awesome!"

Fatty Yu smiled modestly and responded, "The reason why this went so smoothly was mainly due to good luck. If it weren't for the little mouse's help, I wouldn't have been able to find out who wrote the kidnapping letter so quickly on my own."

Li Weidong understood Fatty Yu's thoughts, nodded and said, "How about this, if Little Mouse is willing, I can let him stay in the steel mill to work in the future."

After hearing this, Fatty Yu suddenly became excited.

You know, he is now the deputy director of the steel rolling mill and a big shot in the factory. If he agrees, he will not be able to succeed even if someone tries to stop him.

Fatty Yu returned to the hospital and told the little mouse the good news.

The little mouse was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

The workshops in the steel rolling mill are now the most famous in the country, and they also offer the best welfare benefits.

Even if you just work as an ordinary worker, you can get a salary of fifty or sixty yuan a month.

With this salary, he can pay for his father's medical treatment.

"Brother Yu, thank you so much."

"Look at you kid, what nonsense are you talking about.

When you enter the workshop, just work hard and that will be the greatest reward for me."

Fatty Yu and the little mouse stayed in the hospital for two days and finally found the trace of Xiao Qiuzi.

Seeing Xiao Qiuzi sneaking into the ward, Fatty Yu asked Little Mouse to keep an eye on him again, and he returned to the steel mill and reported the situation to Li Weidong.

Li Weidong had originally planned to inspect the steel rolling mill laboratory, but when he heard about this, he immediately changed his clothes, rode his bicycle and followed Fatty Yu to the hospital.

Fatty Yu wanted to rush into the ward at that time, but was stopped by Li Weidong.

"Brother Weidong, if we wait here, this guy might run away."

"I know, but Aunt Qiu is seriously ill. If she sees us rushing in, she will definitely understand what happened.

If something happens to her, can we feel at ease? "

Hearing this, Fatty Yu gave Li Weidong a thumbs up.

The three of them waited outside the ward for nearly half an hour before Xiao Qiuzi came out.

Xiao Qiuzi was in a bad mood at this time because he found that his mother's condition was more serious. The key point was that he had not found a way to contact Qin Huairu, let alone get money from Qin Huairu.

Just as he was worrying, Xiao Qiuzi noticed three people approaching quietly.

Xiao Qiuzi realized that something was wrong and tried to run away. Li Weidong said calmly, "You are Xiao Qiuzi, you can run away right now, but what about your mother? Can you take your mother with you?"
We didn't enter the ward to arrest you just now, do you know why?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Qiuzi stopped abruptly where he was.

He turned his head, looked at Li Weidong and said, "My friend, you may have recognized the wrong person. I am just a temporary worker in the timber factory. I have never done any speculation or profiteering."

Li Weidong smiled and said, "Xiao Qiuzi, you didn't do any speculation, but you kidnapped someone. Do you think you can keep this a secret?"

After hearing this, Xiao Qiuzi felt that he had no way to defend himself.

"Really? As long as you can provide evidence to prove that I kidnapped someone, I will go with you right now, without a second thought."

This is Xiao Qiuzi's greatest reliance. After all, when he kidnapped Jia Zhang, he was so nimble and quick that no one discovered him at all.

Of course, Li Weidong couldn't produce evidence to prove that he had kidnapped someone, but he was not in a hurry. He just smiled faintly at Xiao Qiuzi and said, "Xiao Qiuzi, let's not talk about the kidnapping for now, but now I have something I want to talk to you alone.

How about this, let's go to the grove next to us."

This proposal was exactly what Xiao Qiuzi wanted. After all, he knew that the hospital corridor was crowded with people. If someone told his mother about this, she would definitely be angry. Thinking of this, Xiao Qiuzi followed Li Weidong to the grove.

Li Weidong handed Xiao Qiuzi a cigarette and said with a smile: "Xiao Qiuzi, I have a very reasonable proposal now. I wonder if you can agree to it."

Li Weidong's attitude was beyond Xiao Qiuzi's expectations
After all, in his opinion, since Li Weidong has determined that he is the kidnapper
At this time, he should be cruel to me, or even arrest me directly, but now he is so kind to me.

Xiao Qiuzi didn't understand Li Weidong's purpose, so he could only take the cigarette. Li Weidong waited for Xiao Qiuzi to light the cigarette before continuing, "Xiao Qiuzi, your mother is seriously ill now and urgently needs medical expenses.

In this way, I can provide you with some medical expenses, but you have to come with me to surrender yourself and reveal the real culprit behind the scenes."

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Qiuzi's face changed, he threw away the cigarette and said: "Who do you think I am?
Let me tell you, I, Xiao Qiuzi, have been on the streets before, and although I haven’t achieved anything great in my life, I will never betray my brothers.

Don't say you don't have evidence. Even if you have evidence and you can send me to jail right now, I will never betray my friends!"

People like Xiao Qiuzi, who value brotherhood more than their own lives, are generally difficult to convince.

Fatty Yu got a little angry when he heard this. He took out a dagger from his pocket and put it against Xiao Qiuzi's neck: "You kid, you don't want to drink the wine, right? I tell you, this guy is the director of our steel mill laboratory. If he says a word, you will be shot!"

Facing the sharp dagger, Xiao Qiuzi actually closed his eyes and said calmly: "It's death anyway, so just do it now to save everyone trouble."

Fatty Yu has been on the streets for so many years and has seen countless people, but this is the first time he has seen someone like Xiao Qiuzi. For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it.

Xiao Qiuzi continued, "You can arrest me now, but I will never betray my friends."

Li Weidong laughed loudly and said, "Okay, okay, you won't betray your friends. Then do you think your friends will betray you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Qiuzi's expression changed obviously.

Although he knew that Chen Huadian was not a loyal man, he was also sure that Chen Huadian would not betray him. This was one of the reasons why he followed Chen Huadian.

"Impossible! My friend will never betray me!"

Li Weidong glanced at him indifferently, then asked Fatty Yu to take him back to the security department of the steel rolling mill first.

After Li Weidong caught Xiao Qiuzi, he asked Qin Huairu in detail about the incident and instantly concluded that the real mastermind must be Chen Huadian.

Li Weidong fell silent after looking at the information about Chenhua Store.

Chen Huadian was a man who caused so many troubles before liberation, but he was able to get away with it safely after liberation. He is no ordinary person.

Li Weidong put down the information, waved at Fatty Yu, and said, "Fatty Yu, take Xiao Qiuzi with you, and let's go to this Chenhua store."

At this time, Xiao Qiuzi had been detained for two days. When he learned that Li Weidong was going to take him to see Chen Huadian, he had already guessed Li Weidong's purpose.

"Li Weidong, I've already told you, this has nothing to do with Chenhua Store, I did it all by myself, if you want to kill me, just come to me!"

Li Weidong ignored him.

Chen Huadian was in a bad mood these past two days. Firstly, he had not received the money; secondly, Xiao Qiuzi had disappeared.

According to their agreement, Xiao Qiuzi would meet him at Chaoyang Park every two days. But today was the agreed day, and he walked around the park but didn't see Xiao Qiuzi.

"Where did this guy go? Doesn't he want the money anymore?" Chen Huadian muttered a few words, turned around and was about to leave, when he bumped into a gangster.

The gangster's eyes widened immediately, and he pointed at Chen Huadian's nose and said, "You old man, why don't you have eyes when you walk?

Don’t go out if you don’t have eyes!
I'm telling you, you knocked me down and injured me today, so you have to pay me! Give me fifty dollars, and I'll let you go!"

Asking for fifty yuan right out of his mouth was clearly blackmail. Chen Huadian just smiled faintly and said, "Fifty yuan?
You are quite courageous boy.

When I played this trick in the park, I only dared to ask for one dollar at most. Do you know why? "

The gangster was stunned for a moment when he saw that Chen Huadian was not panicking at all, and actually asked, "Why?"

Chen Huadian said seriously: "Going to the park is not like going to a mall, how much money do you think people can bring?

Generally speaking, even if a person is very rich, one dollar is not enough. If you ask for fifty dollars now, they can't give it to you even if they want to.

In this case, the only thing people can do is tell the park ranger, but then not only will you not get the money, you might even get caught.

Do you think you handled this professionally?

These words left the gangster dumbfounded.

"You...how do you know so much? Who are you?"

Chen Huadian reached out his hand, patted the gangster on the face and said, "Didn't I just say that I used to be a street thug, and you were still in your mother's womb at that time."

The gangster took a deep breath after hearing this.

"Oh, you are a senior, I am so sorry, I apologize to you."

"Okay, be careful next time. We are gangsters, not robbers."

Chen Huadian turned around gracefully and took square steps.

At this moment, he seemed to have reached the peak of his life.

However, when he saw Xiao Qiuzi being escorted towards him by two people, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
