Out of the hospital, Yang Xiaobao walked slowly on the busy street. Just from the closed and safe environment suddenly into the flow of strangers, Yang Xiaobao increased his vigilance, while walking on the sidewalk, while watching around.
There are a lot of pedestrians coming and going on the street, and occasionally there are police cars passing by. The huge LCD TV of the shopping building across the street is broadcasting fashion advertisements, and the street vendors are hawking Hami melons enthusiastically.
As usual, the city is quiet and noisy, without any strange eyes, it seems that everything has been peaceful. Yang Xiaobao stopped in front of a tabloid Pavilion on the street corner, picked up a local newspaper just published today and looked through it for a while. There was no follow-up report on the shocking incident of Baoying building.
Perhaps this matter is really thoroughly cool, has been forgotten, no longer someone to pay attention to. That's fine. Yang Xiaobao thought in his heart, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, and put the newspaper back.
"Don't you want one? A dollar. " The newsstand owner saw that Yang Xiaobao had been holding the newspaper for a long time, but he didn't buy it. He was slightly dissatisfied. Isn't this a waste of time to read the newspaper?
Yang Xiaobao shook his head and laughed: "I can't afford it. I have no money."
The newsstand owner's expression is like eating a big green olive, choking speechless, thinking that if you don't buy it, you won't buy it. Why cry. Fortunately, it's not a big deal. The newsstand owner rolled his eyes and snorted a little discontentedly.
Yang Xiaobao laughs and flicks his right thumb. A shiny coin pops out and flies to the newsstand owner: "here's the money, my last piece."
The newsstand owner grabs the coin that Yang Xiaobao bounces in his palm. He glances at it and finds that it's actually double-sided. He immediately throws it back to Yang Xiaobao and sneers: "Oh, it's still double-sided magic coin, fake money? You can't use the money. Forget it. "
"You don't want it yourself. No wonder I do." Yang Xiaobao put the coin back in his pocket with a smile and said, "by the way, this coin is neither magic coin nor fake coin, but a coin with wrong version from the mint. There is not one in one million six. Of course, it's worth as much as a million ordinary coins. In the collection market, it starts from six figures. "
The newsstand owner's mouth was wide open, his chin almost fell to the ground, and his face was even more wonderful. It seemed that he could not believe it and was too late to repent.
Yang Xiaobao laughed and turned to leave. He stopped a taxi by the side of the road.
"Where to?" The driver turned and asked Yang Xiaobao, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Leave it on first." Yang Xiaobao put on his seat belt, stretched his back on the seat, stretched his waist comfortably, and said casually, "I'll tell you where to go later."
As a taxi driver, if you haven't seen any strange people, you don't ask any more questions. You start your car and drive slowly north along Nancheng Avenue. No matter where you are going, just pay according to your watch.
"Master, can you lend me your mobile phone to make a call?" The car didn't go far away. Yang Xiaobao opened his mouth and pointed to a mobile phone charging on the bridge.
The driver glanced at Yang Xiaobao strangely. Who hasn't got a mobile phone these days? But I didn't think much about it either. "Use it," he said casually
Yang Xiaobao dials a number from his memory. The phone calls for a long time before it is connected. A familiar and confused man's voice comes from it: "hello..."
Yang Xiaobao showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, but he didn't answer. He immediately hung up the phone and gave the mobile phone back to the driver. His mood relaxed a lot.
The driver looked at Yang Xiaobao several times as if he were a psychopath. It seemed that this strange passenger was doing something. He borrowed his mobile phone to make a phone call and then hung up without saying a word. Is this meaningful?
For Yang Xiaobao, this is of course meaningful. He just called Luo Qiang, the former guard captain of Weizhuang and his former partner and informal subordinate. During the period of dealing with Gao Sihai, Luo Qiang had a good cooperation with him, and they had frequent contact. Later, Yang Xiaobao seized almost all the industries under Gao Sihai's name, and a considerable part of them was given to this person for management. In other words, this person is his white glove.
Yang Xiaobao has just spent four months of treatment in the hospital, which is almost isolated from the world. When he returns to urban life, he needs to solve some practical difficulties: he really doesn't have a dime all over and can't even afford a bun.
When escaping from the sea of fire, almost all the things that were on fire were burned, and the things that were not burned were also floated in the river, such as banknotes, wallets, and mobile phones.
The only watch left on his body was also left to Dr. Du as medical expenses. As for that coin with collection value, although it can be worth a little money, it can't be changed urgently.
The easiest way to solve this dilemma is to find friends and relatives to help. More importantly, he needs to know the latest situation: is Yan Zi still her mayor? Have you been implicated? Is Xu Jing involved? Is the company closed? What happened to Weizhuang? These things, whether on the TV in the hospital ward or in the latest newspaper on the newsstand, are unknown, but you can get accurate answers from Luo Qiang.
When Yang Xiaobao just came out, it was Luo Qiang, not Xu Jing or Yan Zi, who contacted him first. This was carefully considered and weighed. He didn't have to guess to know that these two women, who had a very close personal relationship with him, could not escape the secret scrutiny and surveillance.
Yang Xiaobao is not naive enough to seriously think that he can rely on the sea of fire to feign death to get the chance to enforce the law. The current criminal technology can identify several dogs that have been burned, whether they are male or female, let alone a living person.
He also doesn't think it's really over - it doesn't mean it's really over if it's nothing in the media.
With his experience in secret investigation, Yang Xiaobao knows for sure that all the people close to him, especially Xu Jing and Yan Zi, will be monitored for a long time. Once a suspicious person visits or a strange phone call comes in, it will immediately cause waves. He really didn't want to involve the two women any more.
In this southern metropolis, Yang Xiaobao's relatives and friends are not few, and Luo Qiang is the most special one. He and Yang Xiaobao are just partners and superiors and subordinates who have cooperated with each other. This kind of relationship is not particularly close to the outside world, so it is not easy to be involved in the catastrophe caused by Yang Xiaobao. Even if the monitoring and review of Luo Qiang is not over, it will not be particularly strict.
In the same way, the disaster he caused will not affect Luo Qiang's "white glove" business. On this point, Yang Xiaobao has been confirmed by the extremely strange phone call just now.
