Chapter 586: Find Someone Who Can Go Into the Water

Qianhai after snow has a unique scenery.

The weeping willows on the shore are covered with snow, as if they were made of jasper.

The dark water in front, under the moonlight, looks like a large piece of smooth obsidian when viewed from a high position, quiet but with a mysterious and dangerous atmosphere.

The man took advantage of the darkness and came to the waterside, stretched his neck and looked around.

Du Fei concluded that he must be waiting for someone, so he simply let Xiao Hei fall into a nearby tree.

But the man was pacing back and forth on the shore, exhaling white breath from his mouth, and rubbing his hands together as if he was about to rub them out.

After waiting for a while, no one came to contact him.

Du Fei felt that he had consumed a lot of energy. Although he had not reached the limit yet, he had to cut off his vision and take a rest first.

To avoid being stretched at critical moments.

I cursed in my heart that the person who came to contact me was too meaty and he had to wait for such a long time. .??.

After taking a short rest, Du Fei quickly synchronized his vision again.

Almost five minutes passed.

Du Fei looked at the man again and couldn't help but say "Huh".

Because this person is no longer where he was just now, and is walking north along the shore of Qianhai, leaving a series of clear footprints on the snow.

"That's not right~ Why did you move?"

Du Fei secretly thought something was wrong. If this person was really in contact with his accomplices, he shouldn't leave easily.

There was Xiao Hei watching him just now. If someone came again, he would definitely be reminded and there would be no way he would miss it.

This made Du Fei suspicious in his heart. Could it be that he had guessed wrong from the beginning? This man came to the beach not just to find someone to meet him?

"Then why is he here in the middle of the night?"

Du Fei was wondering when the man suddenly stopped.

Turning his head to look at the quiet water in the dark night, he seemed to have made up his mind, turned around and took a step forward.

After taking this step, the toes of his shoes were already hanging in the air, and he would fall into the water if his feet slipped.

In this season, the water temperature is freezing cold. Regardless of whether it is wet or not, if you fall in, you will most likely die.

Du Fei's heart moved.

Could it be that this person is not looking for someone to connect with, but is here to commit suicide?

Thinking of this, I was slightly distracted, and then I saw a splash on the water.

Du Fei said "fuck", but found that the man was still standing on the shore and did not jump down at all.

The splash of water just now was the bag he picked up in his hand and threw it into the sea in front of him.

After the man threw away the bag, it seemed as if a heavy burden had been lifted off him.

He took a long breath and quickly left the place.

When Du Fei saw him leaving, he glanced towards the beach, remembered the approximate location of where he had thrown the object, and then asked Xiao Hei to follow him.

Although the path was different from when he came here, the man was very familiar with the terrain after twisting and turning in the alley.

He didn't go anywhere else and returned directly to Du Fei's compound.

Quickly walk through the front and middle yards and return to the backyard to the west house.

Xiao Hei followed and landed on the window sill of the porch outside the house.

The windows of this west room are framed with glass. Although the curtains are drawn in the room, the curtains are made of rags and are barely hung, with seams exposed on all sides.

Du Fei adjusted his perspective and saw what was going on inside through the gap in the curtain.

The man just now came back and was taking off his coat.

This is a tall, straight-looking middle-aged man, wearing glasses and with a cropped haircut. He is about thirty-six or seventeen years old.

There was also a woman in the room, smaller than the man and of middle-to-upper-class appearance. She took the man's coat and said something.

In addition to the two adults, there were two half-grown children who had already fallen asleep in the back room next to them.

Seeing this, Du Fei realized more and more that this person was probably not a lurker.

First of all, this person's actions outside just now were full of flaws, and he didn't look like someone who had been specially trained at all.

Secondly, it is normal to pretend to be a husband and wife in order to deceive others, but with two children, isn't it too much trouble?

At this point, Du Fei already understood that he was most likely mistaken this time.

But he was still very curious, what was the background of this couple, so mysterious in the middle of the night, what did they throw into the sea?

Du Fei disconnected vision synchronization.

Lean on the Arhat bed, close your eyes and rest your mind to regain your energy.

I'm still thinking about what happened just now, and I'm even more curious about what's in that pocket?

It's a pity that he has no way to salvage it now.

This made Du Fei couldn't help but get excited.

There are little crows on the ground, little black ones in the sky, and little red and little gray ones on the ground. It’s time to get one that can swim in the water.

Thinking of this, Du Fei was still slightly excited.

Think carefully about what to choose for modification.

During this period, Du Fei got a lot of good things from Wang Xiaodong, Diao Guodong, and Zhang Ye.

Through Chen Fangshi's determination, these things are all priceless treasures, and the white light and blue light contained in them have filled the portable space.

This made him eager to try, this time he wanted to play a big game.

It was too shocking to use the portable space to transform Xiaowu and the others before, so I had always been wary of going too far.

Take Xiao Wu, for example, it's fair to say that now, but if it were older, no one would believe it if it was a cat.

There are also little black crows that fly in the sky all day long. If they are obviously larger than other crows, they are definitely the best targets for slingshots and air guns.

The two ‘underground workers’, Xiao Hong and Xiao Hui, are not easy to see, but they are too big to be seen.

It's inconvenient to go underground.

This time Du Fei decided to get one that swims in the water, so he no longer had these worries.

With the cover of the water, even if you get a big guy, it won't be easily discovered.

In addition, the water, which is calm on the surface, is far more dangerous than the land, and there are all kinds of predators hidden in the water.

If you get a small fish or shrimp, it will be eaten by natural enemies in two or three days. Isn't it a waste of time!

Du Fei thought about it and decided that ordinary fish and shrimp would definitely not work.

It must have defense, and it is better to be fierce...

But it is November now, and it is not easy to see fresh fish and shrimp.

Du Fei thought about it, but he didn't make up his mind, so he simply waited until Sunday to go to the flower and bird market to have a look.

Two more days passed.

Since the night before yesterday, someone was found throwing things into the front sea.

Du Fei later found a friend at the police station to check.

The couple who lived in the west room in the backyard of the middle road yard, the man was called Lu Haishan and the woman was called Yin Xiumei.

Lu Haishan worked in a precision instrument factory, and the woman did not work and took care of the children at home.

Just looking at the information on the surface, there is nothing wrong with these two people.

Moreover, there is a complete file of Lu Haishan at the precision instrument factory.

This person has been working at the precision instrument factory since liberation, and there is no possibility of being replaced.

As for the steel rolling mill.

After learning that there was a problem in the finance department, Li Mingfei did not take any action, as if he was still unaware.

I don’t know how he will deal with it next.

However, the benefits of Qin Jingrou were immediate.

Last night, Qin Huairou came to mention it. Zhao Xinlan, who led Qin Jingrou in the finance department, did not know how Li Mingfei greeted her, but she became enthusiastic about Qin Jingrou.

Zhao Xinlan knew before that Qin Jingrou entered the finance department through the relationship of Xu Daimao in the material department.

Although Xu Daimao is a popular person in the factory, other departments have to give him face.

But Zhao Xinlan feels that the finance department is the confidant of the leader.

Besides, Zhao Xinlan has inquired about it. Qin Jingrou and Xu Daimao are not related. It’s just that Qin Jingrou’s cousin lives in the same courtyard with Xu Daimao, so Qin Jingrou was not taken seriously before.

Who would have thought that Director Li's secretary would come over to say hello and ask her to take care of Qin Jingrou.

What a concept!

Zhao Xinlan was stunned at the time.

She was not stupid, she could work for a secretary of a big factory.

Xu Daimao was just a cover, and after all the fuss, it turned out that Director Li was standing behind Qin Jingrou!

That night, it was almost time to get off work.

Du Fei was a little lazy in the office.

After winter, cotton curtains were hung in the office and the stove was lit in the room.

These days, probably because of the cold weather, many people have calmed down.

There are fewer young people walking in groups on the street, and fewer people shaking hands.

This has obviously reduced the number of things on the street office side.

Wait until the end of get off work.

It was just five o'clock and it was dark.

Du Fei rode his bike to pick up Zhu Ting.

Zhu Ting came out early today and waited at the door for a while.

Du Fei arrived, but he didn't get off the bike, so Zhu Ting sat on the back rack of the bike.

She seemed to be in a good mood, and she started to talk about some things that happened at work today.

This is their daily habit.

They share work and life with each other, and sometimes they can give advice to make the ordinary days less boring.

After riding along the main road for a while, Du Fei remembered that tomorrow was Sunday, and asked, "Hey~ Let's go to the flower, bird and fish market tomorrow?"

Zhu Ting was also interested when she heard it.

Although she didn't raise fish, Zhu's mother liked flowers and had taken her to the flower, bird and fish market several times before.

Zhu Ting didn't like the smell there, but it didn't hurt to go there occasionally.

"Okay~ Why did you think of going there? Want to raise a few small goldfish?"

Du Fei smiled and said, "Forget about raising fish, don't let them all go into Xiao Wu's stomach."

Zhu Ting also laughed and was about to say something else.

But at this moment, Du Fei suddenly said "Huh" and looked across the street.

Zhu Ting was stunned and followed his gaze.

I saw two people standing at the entrance of an alley across the street.

Because it was already dark, Zhu Ting could not see the faces of the two people clearly.

But Du Fei's eyesight was not affected much, and he saw at a glance that one of the two people was Zhang Huabing, his junior high school classmate.

And the other one was not a stranger, it was Zhou Changli!

Du Fei was slightly surprised, when did these two people get together?

From the way they talked, it seemed that they had some dispute, but because they were too far away, and they had just got off work, the traffic on the road was busy, and it was even more impossible to hear.

Du Fei was thinking about it, but he did not stop.

He only knew in his heart that Zhang Huabing and Zhou Changli knew each other.

When I sent Zhu Ting home, I didn't see Zhu's father as usual.

It was almost the end of the year, and Zhu's father was getting busier and busier at work, and he rarely came back before ten o'clock.

After dinner in the evening, Du Fei came back from Zhu Ting's

house.

But I was thinking about seeing Zhang Huabing and Zhou Changli together when I got off work.

Then I thought about the relationship between Zhang Huabing and Li Zhiming.

Du Fei couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Li Zhiming also knew Zhou Changli?

Du Fei traveled through time and knew that Zhou Changli's nickname was Little Bastard. Although he was not very prominent now, he would rise up in two years and become a well-known figure in the old city.

But in the end, Zhou Changli confronted Li Yuanchao and died at his hands.

Now, Zhou Changli actually had a subtle connection with Li Zhiming.

Du Fei also knew that although Li Zhiming and Li Yuanchao were cousins, Li Zhiming secretly hired someone to keep an eye on Li Yuanchao, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Until now, Du Fei felt that Li Zhiming was a foggy person.

It was hard to tell whether he was a good person or a bad person, and it was even harder to see what he was thinking...

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out anything.

Du Fei simply stopped thinking about it and looked at the situation in the Shichahai compound through his vision.

On Lu Haishan's side, except for going out that night, there were no other suspicious actions.

Du Fei has basically ruled out the suspicion that Lu Haishan was Zhang Xiaoqin's contact person.

As for the others, there are still no clues.

Turn to Xiao Hui.

Zhang Xiaoqin still went to bed early as usual and read an outdated magazine.

Retracting his vision, Du Fei washed his face and feet, and went upstairs to wait early.

Today is Saturday, and as usual, Qin Huairou will definitely come over in the evening...

The weather was pretty good the next morning.

It snowed a few days ago, and the temperature suddenly dropped by ten degrees, but it was sunny for several days in a row.

Yesterday was the best day, so Du Fei went to pick up Zhu Ting first and had breakfast by the way.

The two rode bicycles, heading north from Gongzhufen, and went straight to the flower, bird and fish market in Guanyuan.

At this time, there was no hall behind the building. Usually, it was a large-scale pigeon market, and people set up stalls before dawn in the morning.

Only during holidays, people would buy flowers, birds, fish and insects, most of which were flowers and birds.

Usually there was only one morning, and there were not many people after ten o'clock.

If they caught up with the red armband sweeping the streets, they would scatter in a hurry and run away in an instant.

Du Fei and Zhu Ting came over.

They found a car-watching aunt from a distance, paid to store the bicycle, and then walked side by side into the market.

Du Fei came through and visited the flower, bird and fish market for the first time.

He was not interested in raising these things. This time he came mainly to see if he could find one that could go into the water.

As a result, when he came and saw it, his heart was immediately chilled.

Unlike later times, you can just buy an electric heating rod to heat the fish tank.

In winter, it is not easy to take care of fish.

Moreover, if you set up a stall to sell fish, you will be wearing a red armband. Bird sellers can just carry cages and leave, but fish sellers can't carry a large basin of water~

After walking a long way, Du Fei only met two fish sellers, and they were all caught by themselves, and the fish were frozen.

Du Fei looked at the fish hanging there, and thought that this trip was in vain.

Even if he walked further in, he might not find what he wanted to find.

But since he was here, he couldn't just turn around and leave.

Zhu Ting was in a good mood. She looked here and there, and listened to the katydids for a long time in front of an old man selling katydids.

The old man was in his fifties, with a face full of wrinkles and vicissitudes, and seemed to have quite a story.

In the past, there was no radio, and it was not easy to hear something in winter. Either raise birds or raise katydids.

Raising katydids is especially difficult.

After the frost in autumn, wild katydids will die, and only artificially raised ones can survive if they are well kept warm.

Put it in a katydid gourd, put it in your arms when you go out, and use your body temperature to warm it up. The katydids will chirp loudly and clearly, and you will look good when you walk outside.

But in the early years, most families could hardly even get enough to eat, so how could they have the leisure to raise something that makes noises?

So those who can raise katydids must be well-off, not rich, but at least have a well-off family and no worries about food and clothing.

Although the old man who sells katydids looks down and out now, his spirit is still somewhat different from others.

However, Du Fei did not explore his past leisure and leisure.

I listened to the katydid chirping with Zhu Ting for a while.

That thing just kept making a "gugu" sound over and over again. Although it was quite loud, it was just a novelty. After a long time, I got tired of it.

The two continued to walk forward.

Du Fei had given up the thoughts before coming here, so he just let go of the fun.

He had already made up his mind. When Yang Shu and his wife came last time, they said that Yang Shu's girlfriend worked in the aquatic company.

It was just right to go back and ask Yang Shu to see if there was anyone who met the requirements at the aquatic company.

Who knew that whoever wanted to come~

Du Fei had just made up his mind and was walking forward when Zhu Ting said, "Hey? What are you doing over there?"

Du Fei looked in the direction of her finger.

It was the entrance of an alley more than ten meters ahead, and many people were watching the excitement.

Du Fei was curious and immediately squeezed over with Zhu Ting to see what was going on.

Who knew that as soon as he saw the situation inside, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

The two people setting up the stall inside were actually Yang Shu and his wife! <

br>

In front of them, there was a large enamel basin, and the mouth of the basin was covered with a net bag.

There was actually a big guy lying inside that was not much smaller than the basin.

Lying inside, motionless, it was actually an alligator turtle!

This kind of thing has long been common in later generations.

But at that time, people didn't know much about alligator turtles, and thought that this thing looked ferocious, and it must be a monster.

People gathered around and pointed and talked about it.

Some people even said that it might be the mythical beast Ba Xia that carried the stone tablet.

Du Fei's eyes lit up.

This thing is great!

It's like someone is sending a pillow when you are sleepy.

Du Fei hurriedly called "Old Yang, sister-in-law", and squeezed in.

Yang Shu was a little bored at first, looking down at the pot.

Hearing the movement, he looked up and immediately smiled and said, "Hey, you, Old Du, what a coincidence! You are here too."

Du Fei called Zhu Ting over and introduced them to each other.

When they saw that someone familiar had come, most of the crowd dispersed.

These people were just watching the fun. Yang Shu wanted two yuan for this thing. This thing can't be eaten or used. It looks lumpy and gives goose bumps. I don't know if it's poisonous. Who would spend two yuan to buy it.

Du Fei took out a cigarette and handed it to Yang Shu. He pointed his mouth into the basin and said, "What's wrong with you? Why did the big driver of the trading company come here to set up a stall?"

Yang Shu took a puff of speech, raised his chin to his wife, and said helplessly, "It's because she insisted on coming. What can I do?"

It turned out that the aquatic product company where Yang Shu's wife worked had a lot of power, and the fishing teams below had to find ways to curry favor with them.

Live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the water, eat by the water.

Every now and then, the fishing teams would send some of the rare things they caught.

This time, a big alligator turtle was brought in from somewhere.

This alligator turtle has another peculiarity. It probably has an albino gene. The carapace skin is yellow-white, and there are faint textures on the carapace, which is better looking than the black alligator turtles.

Although it looks creepy, Yang Shu's wife is also very happy about the free stuff and insists on selling it in the market.

Yang Shu can't resist her, so he has to follow her.

This is really true, after searching for a long time, it is easy to get it!

Du Fei laughed and said, "Okay, it's so cold, don't squat here. Give this big turtle to me, and I'll treat you to a good meal." He looked at Yang Shu's wife and said, "Sister-in-law, do you think it's okay?"

Yang Shu's wife is not a foolish woman without vision. Besides, Yang Shu gets a lot of money from the Wang family every month, and their family doesn't rely on selling two more dollars to survive.

Since Du Fei has spoken, of course he won't refuse his face.

Yang Shu clasped his fists to the people who were still watching the fun and said, "My apologies, I won't be selling today. Let's go~"

In the pigeon market, people come and go as they please, and everyone is used to it.

At this time, a tall and strong young man came over and saw Yang Shu and his friends were leaving. He hurried over and nodded and said, "Brother Yang, are you leaving so early?"

Yang Shu smiled and said, "I'm leaving. I met a good friend."

The young man was very enthusiastic and helped tie the basin containing the alligator turtle to the rear rack of Yang Shu's bicycle.

Du Fei asked casually, "Your friend? Do you need to call him together?"

Yang Shu waved his hand and said, "No, he's under my third brother's command. He's watching the market here."

Du Fei understood it as soon as he heard it.

Yang Shu's third brother is probably a gangster. He must be quite capable to occupy this pigeon market.

Du Fei didn't ask much. The most important thing in his mind now is this alligator turtle.

I couldn't help but think secretly, if I put this guy in the portable space, I wonder what it will look like?

But before that, I have to send Yang Shu and his wife away.

The reason why Du Fei didn't directly ask for money to buy it just now was that he knew Yang Shu himself was not short of money.

If he really wanted to buy it, Yang Shu would definitely not ask for money. At that time, it would be embarrassing to push and shove for two dollars.

So just don't mention money, just treat a meal directly. Five or six dollars are enough for four people to go to a restaurant, and both sides are decent.

The four people didn't go far. It happened that Yang Shu knew that there was a good restaurant near Yuyuantan.

A total of six dishes were ordered, four meat dishes and two vegetarian dishes.

To be honest, the chef of this restaurant is really skilled, and the heat of the cooking is just right.

There is also the homemade Shaoguo wine in the store, which tastes good and is not expensive.

After a meal, it cost less than five dollars in total.

During the dinner, Yang Shu drank a few sips of wine, his face flushed, and he suddenly asked, "By the way, have you seen Zhang Huabing recently?"

Last time, Yang Shu had reminded Du Fei to be careful of Zhang Huabing.

Du Fei said, "Hmm," "Last time when I picked up Xiao Ting from get off work, I happened to see him going to the district to do some work. I met him at the gate."

Just now, Yang Shu and his wife already knew that Zhu Ting was working in the district.

Du Fei took a piece of vinegar and asked, "How did you know?"

Yang Shu said, "Two days ago, I went to the Dongcheng branch with our director to do some work. I happened to see him coming out. I chatted with him for a few words and he mentioned you..."

Du Fei didn't care about what Yang Shu and Zhang Huabing said, but his heart moved.

He just saw Zhang Huabing and Zhou Changli together yesterday, why did he go to the branch again?
