Chapter 72 If You Can't Tell, Trust Me

Chapter 72 If You Can't Tell, Trust Me
Zhai Da did not take care of the follow-up and handed it over to Wu Yue.

The plan was simple, Lu Benqing picked up 500 yuan and then tested his humanity.

He could choose to catch up with Wu Yue and return the wallet.

You can also choose to use this as start-up capital, find a job and start a new life.

Or, reward yourself.

It turned out that Lu Benqing's humanity could not stand the test, and he even took a taxi away.

Wu Yue will follow and try to start the second order of his "City Hunter" career.

Zhai Da only paid five hundred yuan.

But if 500 yuan can find Lu Benqing a home, he is willing to support him for a long time.

Where is life not about retirement?

Zhai Da had to admit that Wu Yue was a very nice guy and helped solve a big problem.

And there's something.

In a small room in Sanmao Community, Zhai Da was doing his homework at the desk, while Lu Wei was still sitting in her "little prison", reading quietly facing Zhai Da.

They both finished their showers, and the room was filled with warm steam and fragrance. The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and it was late at night at home, so Lu Wei was only wearing loose shorts and a short-sleeved shirt.

Even though the collar of his short-sleeved shirt was very high and his shorts were close to his knees, Zhai Da would still be distracted for 0.1 seconds when he occasionally turned his head.

Suddenly, the copycat phone on the table vibrated. When Zhai Da saw the words "Wu Yue", he immediately turned it over and put it away.

It’s better not to let Lu Wei know about this.

She may not be able to correctly judge Lu Benqing because of her "articulate disorder", but Zhai Da is very clear that this person is beyond help.

If there was, it should not be Lu Wei or anyone else who saved him, but Lu Benqing himself.

Looking at the time, it was already twelve o'clock. Ms. Yu, who had been busy recently, had gone back to her room to sleep. Zhai Da said to Lu Wei, "How about we stop here today?"

Lu Wei raised her head with a hint of doubt in her big eyes. The night had just begun for them after they often learned something.

But he still said, "Okay. I'll go back then."

Zhai Da waited until Lu Wei left before opening his phone. Wu Yue only sent four words: "The net was closed successfully."

He was a little surprised. The speed was too fast. He thought Wu Yue would need to observe for a few days first.

So Lu Benqing was sent back as soon as he came out?

Zhai Da wanted to call Wu Yue back immediately, but then he remembered that the wall between him and Lu Wei was as thin as paper, so he took his phone and went out.

Go to the rooftop.

The summer night was slightly cool, the moon was dim and the stars were sparse. Even the lights in Dongyang were dim at this time.

There is no nightlife in small towns, and of course in most provinces, there is no nightlife in cities either.

Some people later said that the reason why the bulk provinces can lead the country in economy without first-tier cities and capitals is largely because people in bulk provinces go to bed early.
All my energy is reserved for work.

"How's the situation over there?"

Wu Yue: "Everything is normal. Guess where I am? Opposite the Changjing Road Police Station, where we first received our reward. The gambling den that Lu Benqing went to is still within their jurisdiction. The uncles in hats who came over smiled when I saw him."

The gambling den is different from the Little Red House, the latter has some tacit understanding.

The former is the pure target of attack, and is more covert, and all the achievements are real.

I served two in a row without any trouble. Aren’t you happy?

Of course, it is not ruled out that he saw Lu Benqing smile.

"You weren't discovered, were you?"

"No, I'm familiar with the place. This time the gambling den is small, and they only took six people. The stakes are probably not that big either. I estimate the prize money to be around 2,000 to 3,000 yuan. I'll give you a share later."

Zhai Da: "No need, I'll give them all to you."

Zhai Da felt no burden to take another sum of money from his father, but this time Wu Yue helped him a lot, and he did everything by himself from coming up with ideas to execution and even taking risks.

Wu Yue was unwilling to do so: "No, that won't work. The clue you provided is good. I feel that this is a long-term meal ticket. The people in the Little Red House were arrested once, and their wives have to come to pick them up. I guess they will turn over a new leaf in a short time, but these gamblers will not change easily."

"I wrote down the faces of several people. Dongyang County is not very big. I will send them justice packages if I see them again."

Zhai Da thought this was a bit too cruel. So he said:
"Then you, Lu Benqing, can keep an eye on him for me. It's good enough for him to come out and bask in the sun every half a month."

"I will try my best to create a good learning environment for your friend before the college entrance examination."

After finishing the conversation, Zhai Da suddenly realized that sometimes it only takes a moment for people to leave school and enter society.

To the extent that Zhai Da, who now focuses most of his energy on school and study, feels that he and Wu Yue are from two different worlds.

Zhai Da exhaled: "Have you really decided? You don't want to learn anymore?"

Wu Yue could be heard drinking water. "There are only a few dozen days left. What should I learn? My dad will calm down in a couple of days. He will go to school and talk to the teacher."

Zhai Da: "You should know that my grades have improved rapidly recently. If you are willing to repeat the year, I guarantee that you can go to a junior college or even university next year."

As long as the [Old Man TV] is used properly, both Fan Junwei and Wu Yue can help.

Even if he went to college and left this [equipment] to his friend, he would not be unable to accept it.

A few kilometers away, Wu Yue was standing in a small shop opposite the Changjing Road Police Station. The shop owner was watching TV, which was broadcasting a special program on the 08 new regulations by Bulk TV.

He never fully understood it from the beginning, even when he was still a student.

Wu Yue drank a sip of iced black tea from a large bucket, staring blankly at the TV, and said:
"I don't know when I stopped studying. I don't blame others. It's because I'm playful, lazy and undisciplined."

"You know, you can't blame anyone for learning this."

“But when I found something that could suppress my playful heart, allow me to get up early and stay up late, be self-disciplined and enjoy it.”

"If it's not illegal or crooked, I think it's a very precious thing. Maybe everyone's opportunities are different. If I meet the right one for me, I want to grab it."

On the rooftop, Zhai Da was silent for a long time.

The soul of an adult made him instinctively want to persuade.

But the young people's empathy made him happy for Wu Yue.

So all those words turned into one reminder: "Remember, safety first, obey the law. I can't do things for you, but I can help you use your brain. If you don't understand something, you can talk to me."

Wu Yue smiled happily, hoping that his brother could understand him.

Also for my unsteady heart, I finally found a small fulcrum.

"Don't worry, I'm a hunter and I will never become the prey."

When saying this, the store owner glanced at Wu Yue.

This little brat, he must have been so stupid from watching cartoons, he's just memorizing lines here.
Cartoons really ruin the younger generation.

Suddenly, Zhai Da felt the rooftop door behind him opened.

Turning around, I saw Lu Wei opening the door and coming to the rooftop.

After taking a shower, her hair was no longer in a ponytail, but long, and was blown like a shawl in the evening breeze.

The loose short-sleeved shorts were also fluffy and swaying, even revealing a hint of a flat belly.

Zhai Da hung up the phone and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Wei looked at Zhai Da carefully with her calm little face.

After a while, he managed to say: "Teacher Yu loves you"

Zhai Da:.
"You did very well in the exam. I will work harder too."

Zhai Da couldn't bear it any longer and poked Lu Wei's smooth forehead with two fingers: "What are you thinking about!"

It's as if I would jump off a building just because I got 132 points in math!
Lu Wei was pushed and shaken by the fingers; she was too thin.

But he did not give up. Instead, he stepped forward, grabbed Zhai Da's hand, lowered his head and said nothing.

It was as if he was really afraid that Zhai Da would try flying without wings, even if the possibility was only one in ten thousand.

Under the seemingly calm expression, no one can know the anxiety in his heart.

Zhai Da sighed and helped Lu Wei pull the corner of her clothes to get rid of the cool breeze that was running through her collar so as to prevent it from taking away the girl's body temperature.

Her tone was soft and calm, "How could I be so crazy? Besides, there is no reason for it."

Lu Wei lowered her head: "I can't tell. That's why I'm scared."

She couldn't tell which was a joke and which was sincere, and she couldn't tell whether Zhai Da was still in distress.

She couldn't tell what her emotions were, but she knew...she didn't want anything to happen.
Zhai Da patted Lu Wei's thin arm and said, "If you can't tell, just trust me."

Lu Wei bit her lip and nodded.

Feeling the coldness of the girl's hands, Zhai Da no longer hesitated and pulled Lu Wei downstairs.

The night wind no longer howled, the lights were dim and distant, and the only sound in the stairwell was the clacking of two people's slippers.

And two very long but blending shadows.

"I decided to tell you that your dad is out."

"Um"

“Then he went back in.”

"Um"

"Aren't you curious about what's going on?"

"I trust you..."

“That includes this kind of thing.”

“Everything.”
