"Hey, brother, just talk with me. Anyway, I'm unarmed and can't escape?" Lu Xiyan leaned against the iron gate and shouted at the back of the guard outside. The fierce guard seemed to be gone, and he changed to a dull one.

From the time he came in, he ate two meals in total. The first meal was a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun. The second meal was slightly harder and yellow, with a bowl of rice with a bit of mold, plus a plate of stir-fried vegetables and a bowl of pickled soup.

I have never eaten such a meal before, but as long as I am hungry, I can eat anything, but after eating it, my stomach cannot bear it.

After three rounds of events, I was almost exhausted, and I stopped.

If there is no such a tribute bucket, then this smell can make people faint.

Lu Xiyan is also very young and in good health. If he had changed to someone with weak constitution, he would probably have lost half his life if he had to do this.

It would be nice if he could still speak.

"Brother Fan said, don't let me talk to you..."

This guy is so honest. He knows that he is a simple and honest person. He is not bad by nature. Although there are many bad people these days, he has not yet reached the point where there are bad people everywhere.

Some people are ignorant, more ignorant, and just to survive and to eat.

"It's okay, your boss is not here, how can he know if you are talking to me? Besides, aren't you bored standing there alone?" Lu Xiyan laughed in silence.

“…”

"Hey, brother, do you have cigarettes?"

"I don't have cigarettes, our boss has them. Brother Fan said that smoking is not allowed in the basement, as it is prone to fire and is dangerous." The young and dull guard said seriously.

"Hahaha, what dangers can be here? Your boss is just exaggerating." Lu Xiyan smiled.

"What is alarmist?"

"It's just a scare. Does he want you to give him filial piety, how much money each person gives him every month, and then let you stay and do things so that you can eat meat and drink wine?"

"How do you know?"

"How long have you been here to do things?" Lu Xiyan was happy. Wu Sibao's subordinates actually sent such a person to see him, probably because they were honest, stubborn, or a dull man.

Such people are obedient and easy to bully, but they are not really stupid. It is really rare in Wu Sibao's guard brigade.

Why not send an elf to guard the cell?

This is a bit clever and full of mind, I'm afraid I can't sit still. The one I used to be like this, such a boring job is just such a boring job. A simple person can do it. This is actually a person who can do his best.

"I heard from your accent, it's from Jiangsu, right?" Lu Xiyan asked.

There was no answer there.

"Who fled from the Yellow River Flood?" Lu Xiyan asked again.

Not speaking and silent means that he is a default. Although Lu Xiyan has never seen this guardian, he can hear his accent.

"Do you know why your hometown is flooded? Why do you have to escape with your family?" Lu Xiyan said, "It's all because of the Japanese invaders, they are Eastern people, do you know?"

He didn't speak, but Lu Xiyan knew he was listening.

"We were living well in our hometown. The Japanese came. They wanted to occupy our country, our land, and our resources. Oh, the meaning of this resource is that we eat, wear and use everything we use. You know..."

Lu Xiyan talked about himself for nearly half an hour, and his mouth became dry.

"Brother, can you get me some water?"

There was no reply, but he heard the sound of his footsteps moving, and it could be seen that there was a difference between the guard brother and the kidnapper "Boss" and Wu Sibao.

"Give you water, it's boiled." Two or three minutes later, the guard reached out to hand it in with a bowl of water, and added a special sentence.

"Thank you." Lu Xiyan was really grateful. The words he said just now were not in vain. If he wanted to drink raw water in his stomach, he might not make him doubt his life.

The boiled water will be good, and there will be no problem after drinking it.

After Lu Xiyan had diarrhea, he was already short of water. If you drink this bowl of warm water, it would be much more comfortable. Hey, why does it have a salty smell?

"Brother, have you added salt to the water?" Lu Xiyan asked in surprise.

"My mother said, if you have diarrhea, use some salt to rinse water and drink it, and people will recover quickly." The guard took the water bowl back and said seriously.

"Your mother is such a good person." Lu Xiyan was stunned. He really didn't expect this.

"My mother died, she had no food to eat, and she starved to death."

"Brother, I'm sorry, I've mentioned your sad things." Lu Xiyan hurriedly apologized.

"I know, you are a good person. The boss and the others tied you up to ask your family to redeem you with money, right?" Although he could only see half of his face through the small window on the iron gate, he could see those tender eyes.

"How did you join them?" Lu Xiyan asked. Many people are not bad by nature, but they just accidentally took the wrong path. When they understand, they have no way to go if they want to turn back.

"Three months ago, I worked hard with my fellow villagers at the dock. After a day, I could barely have enough food. Later, someone said that the treatment here was good, there was meat to eat and money to get it. I came over and they picked me."

"76" received funding support from the Japanese and recruited soldiers. In addition to recruiting gangsters, frustrated soldiers and politicians, they were also very demanding on those with innocent family backgrounds.

After all, Lin Shi did not want to turn "76" into a gang organization. He wanted to build a huge spy agency, which required a large number of personnel. People with innocent families were most likely to become his confidant team. Those who came to join with small thoughts can be used now, but they will not be of great use in the future. It's just that no one has to rely on it now.

"Little brother, what's your name?"

"My name is Ding Huai."

"Ding Huai, who gave you this name?"

"My grandfather, there was an old locust tree outside the yard of the house. When I was born, the old locust tree was just tender and sprouted. Grandpa said this was a good omen, so he gave me this name."

"The old man is quite knowledgeable."

"Grandpa used to be the only scholar in the village. After failing, he taught in a private school in the village and died ten years ago." Ding Huai said sadly.

"So, have you even studied and recognized words?" Lu Xiyan was a little surprised. Most of the people who came from rural areas were illiterate, and some didn't even recognize their own names. Occasionally, they met someone who recognized words, which were all rare varieties.

"After grandpa passed away, the family had no money, so he didn't have any thoughts."

"No wonder, brother, you are following these people, I'm afraid you have no future. What they do, right?" Lu Xiyan said.

Outside the door, Ding Huai was silent.

He doesn't like talking, looks a little dull, and is not as good as his fellow villagers. In fact, after he came, he realized where he had arrived, but he could no longer leave. No. 76 can't come just by wanting to come or leave.

So, he could only pretend to be stupid, sometimes deliberately slowing down half a beat faster than others. Gradually, everyone disliked him and was sent here to see him.

It's better to stay here, he doesn't have to go out and catch people or do bad things with those people, and ask for psychological comfort.

"Ding Huai, where did you die? Give me a bath water..." A shout came from the passage, and it was the voice of the kidnapper "Boss".

"Here, Brother Fan." Ding Huai hurriedly agreed and ran over.

Brother Fan?

The kidnapper "Boss" surnamed Fan. Lu Xiyan began to search for Wu Sibao's subordinates in his mind. There was indeed a Xingfu named Fan, named Fan Liang.

This guy is Wu Sibao's loyal dog. Many kidnapping cases were done by this guy, but because there was no evidence, even the police station had no choice but to deal with him.

Now that he has defected to No. 76 and has the support of the Japanese, he is even more arrogant. In addition to the dead Lin Shichang, he is Zhang Guozhen and Fan Liang.

I don't know whether this kid revealed Fan Liang's identity to him on purpose or unintentional basis.

"Ding Huai, did you talk to that person?"

"No, Brother Fan, he had a stomachache and had been undressed for an afternoon. He asked me to have a bowl of water?" Ding Huai lowered his head and explained in a low voice.

"I'll let you be a good person. What kind of good person do you want to be? Get over and give me a bath. This day, I'm so tired." Fan Liang cursed.

"Yes, Brother Fan, I'll go now, please wait." Ding Huai didn't dare to refute at all. After being sucked by the towel in Fan Liang's hand, he obediently carried the bucket to fetch hot water.

Fan Liang originally wanted to leave the watch he got from Lu Xiyan's hand for himself, but when he thought that if Wu Sibao discovered it, he would have to be scolded if he had kidnapped his property. It would be better to find a pawnshop to replace it with money, which would be considered as a bag.

He didn't dare to ship the pawn shop on the ground in western Shanghai, so he went out to Zhabei and found a pawn shop with good reputation to use as a watch.

I didn't expect that this watch was quite valuable. It was actually a 80-year-old. If it weren't for pawning, it would probably be valuable, and it would be a disaster if it was left in your hands.

At eighty oceans, he was very satisfied. He took off his clothes and hummed. Of course, they were all vulgar and obscene words, and the dog could not spit out ivory in his mouth.

"Mad, you want to burn me to death..."

"I'm sorry, Brother Fan, I'll add some cold water to you."

"I'm clumsy, why did you accept you? If it weren't for your ability to write, I'd kicked you out and fend for yourself." Fan Liang beat and scolded, "Go and buy me some wine and food."

Ding Huai looked at Fan Liang with a gaze.

"Go, why are you staring at me? You almost burned me with the water just now. Don't you have to apologize to me?" Fan Liang cursed, "What's wrong with you asking you to buy some wine and food?"

"Brother Fan, I have spent all my money this month."

"What did you do all day long? You spent all your salary so quickly. You are really a prodigal son. Go to the front desk and ask for a few loans and press your own fingerprints." Fan Liang shouted, as if it was a kind of grace to lend money to Ding Huai to buy wine and vegetables for him to eat.

Lu Xiyan heard it all. Fan Liang was too greedy and domineering. Ding Huai's monthly salary was probably drained by him in various ways. Now he still asked people to lend him money to buy wine and vegetables. If he exploits his harsh subordinates like this, it will sooner or later be angry and resentful.
