Original sin

Shen Shen was very disturbed in his heart, he didn't know what he would be waiting for, of course he hoped that the person living here was his father, so many doubts in his heart could be solved.

But to meet father and son under such circumstances, to be honest, he himself was not fully prepared.

After so many years, a "dead" father suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and he felt very excited just thinking about it.But he is also a little worried. After so many years, there will be some kind of estrangement and estrangement between his father and himself, or between himself and his father. He doesn't know what kind of mentality his father has, but he knows that he My mentality has changed a bit.

After smoking several cigarettes in a row, his eyes were always on the intersection that entered the community from the outside.

The night fell and the lights came on, it was already night.

Shen Chen had even forgotten that he hadn't had dinner yet, but a phone call from Qiu Yuzhen reminded him.

"Working overtime again? Why didn't you tell Mom about the overtime work? Mom has prepared your meal!" Qiu Yuzhen said with a bit of blame on the phone. Normally, if Shen Shen didn't go back to eat, she would call in advance to tell her , but today she has not waited for Shen Chen's call.

Shen Chen said apologetically: "Mom, I'm sorry, I forgot about it when I was so busy."

"Forget it, it's okay, I know you are very busy these days, but no matter how busy you are, you must remember to eat!"

Shen Chen hastily responded, feeling warm in his heart.

Qiu Yuzhen asked again: "Where are you in the bureau?"

Shen Chen replied: "No, it's outside."

Listening to Shen Chen's answer, Qiu Yuzhen also knew that Shen Chen's work sometimes had nothing to say to his family. As the wife of an old policeman and the mother of a young policeman, she naturally understood the discipline of the police force.

So she didn't say any more, just told Shen Shen to pay attention to her health, and then hung up the phone.

Shen Shen let out a long breath. At this time, he found that he was really hungry, but there was nothing to eat nearby, and he was afraid that he would come back right after he left, and he didn't want to miss it.At this time, he thought that there was still a bag of Wangwang snow cakes in the car, but he didn't know if it had expired. It was bought by Wang Lu before. Wang Lu likes to eat snacks, and Wangwang snow cakes are her favorite.

Shen Chen doesn't know what's so delicious about this thing, it's dry and sweet, and after two bites, it's a bit boring.But now when he is hungry, he ate two pieces, which can really be a relief.

Suddenly, Shen Shen's eyes straightened, and a figure appeared at the intersection not far away, it was the old beggar.

The old beggar was carrying a sack, and he didn't know what was in it. It was bulging. When the old beggar walked, one of his feet seemed to be dragging, as if he had been injured.

Shen Shen put down the snow cake in his hand and the half-drinked mineral water, got out of the car, and walked straight towards the old beggar.

The old beggar also saw him, and the old beggar's face changed slightly at first, then he regained his composure, and he said lightly: "Come?" Shen Shen nodded, and the old beggar put down the broken sack: "Help!" I'll take it."

Without saying a word, Shen Chen grabbed the sack directly, and it was really heavy.

"What's in it?" Shen Shen asked.

"It's broken, what else can it be?" The old beggar stretched his waist, and then asked him, "Do you have a cigarette? Have one."

Shen Shen handed him the whole pack of cigarettes, and of course his lighter.

The old beggar took out one, lit it, and put the rest into his own pocket.

Shen Chen naturally didn't care, and walked towards the unit building.

The two of them didn't say much until they entered the room.

In fact, Shen Chen was full of questions, but he didn't ask any of them. He and the old beggar were like two old acquaintances who had a tacit understanding.

It's just that this kind of feeling made Shen Shen feel a little strange, because when he was with the old beggar, he didn't really feel the feeling of being with his relatives. People say that there is a kind of connection between blood relatives, It is a kind of magnetism and resonance produced by the same blood.

But Shen Shen didn't feel it.

"Put your things there." The old beggar pointed to a corner of the room.

The house was fairly tidy, but there were some rags piled up in the corner, but they were all sorted, and the arrangement was not bad.

After Shen Chen put down the sack, he walked around the room.

"Is it familiar?"

Hearing the old beggar's question, Shen Shen nodded: "This used to be my home."

The old beggar sat down on an old sofa. The sofa should be picked up by him. It is an old-fashioned spring sofa with a single seat.

He lit another cigarette, from Shen Shen Na Shun: "Have you been here for a long time?"

Shen Shen nodded again.

The old beggar said: "I don't have anything to eat here, why don't we go to a restaurant outside and invite me."

Shen Chen wryly smiled, this old beggar really doesn't treat himself as an outsider.

Shen Shen nodded, he originally thought so, no matter what, this meal must be eaten, even if he can bear it, at this age, he can't let him talk to him hungry.

The two walked out of the community. Shen Shen still remembered that there was a small street less than one kilometer away from the community. There were many small restaurants on the small street. He thought they should have been demolished over the years. But it was still there when I drove over.

Shen Chen didn't drive, and walked with the old beggar.

"You are very calm, unlike that kid, who has such and such problems when he sees me." The old beggar had already lit his third cigarette, and asked Shen Shen: "You are so addicted to smoking?"

The old beggar was stunned for a moment, Shen Chen actually didn't follow his topic, but asked such a question.

The old beggar nodded and said: "Yes, I am a big smoker, but my cigarettes are not as good as yours. I have to say that the taste of good cigarettes is good, you know? In fact, the taste of cigarettes depends on what?"

Shen Chen is a smoker, he still knows a little about cigarettes: "The essence is good or bad."

The old beggar sighed: "Yes, in fact, the quality of tobacco in many cigarettes is similar. Let's take this Huazi as an example. Its shredded tobacco comes from our Qianzhou. It is the same as our own cigarettes. The quality of the tobacco can be said to be exactly the same, but the flavor of the others is much purer. However, the price of a good cigarette is too exaggerated. Take this Huazi as an example, the cost of a pack of Huazi is only six , Seven dollars."

Shen Chen smiled, isn't that the case with famous brands?Is the quality of brand-name bags like LV and GG that many women are obsessed with really much better than many street stalls?Not necessarily, good-quality street stalls may be more solid, but what people value is the added value of the brand?Use that kind of brand with style.

When he came to the small restaurant, he sat down and handed the menu to the old beggar. The waiter kept frowning. He didn't know why Shen would bring an old beggar to the restaurant, especially because the old beggar had an unpleasant smell. smell.

The old beggar didn't care about the waiter's expression, he was used to it.

He calmly ordered a few stir-fried vegetables and a soup and returned the menu to the waiter: "Two more Xiaoweilang."

Shen Shen said, "I'm driving."

The old beggar gave him a blank look: "I know you are driving, but I ordered it for myself."

Shen Shen stopped talking.

After the waiter went down, the old beggar threw Shen Chen a cigarette, as if the cigarette was his own.

"Are you here to find your father?"

Shen Shen nodded: "Yes."

"You don't think I'm your father, do you?" The old beggar puffed out a puff of smoke, then squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Shen, who smiled wryly: "I really thought about that before I came here, but now I know, you are not."

The old beggar sighed: "You are more promising than that kid, and you can hold your breath. That kid is just too rough. He has skills and a good mind, but his concentration is a little weaker."

Shen Chen vaguely knew who the kid the old beggar was talking about was Long Xuejun, so could this old beggar really be Long Xuejun's father, Long Anyi?

"Long Xuejun is very good, he helped me a lot."

"This kid is too sharp. Also, despite his good brains, he is very good."

Shen Chen felt that the old beggar's analysis was correct, that Long Xuejun was indeed like this, just like when he first met Long Xuejun, this guy sometimes acted according to his own likes and dislikes, admitting death.

"You are Long Anyi?"

The old beggar nodded: "That's right."

"Then do you know where my father is?"

"I only know that he is still alive, but I don't know where he is. He has contacted me twice in these years, and the last time was a year ago. If he doesn't come to me, I can't find him. of."

Shen Chen felt a little disappointed after hearing his words, and the old beggar said again: "But since you were able to find this place, it means that he is not far away when he appears."

"By the way, why do you live here?"

"He asked me to live here. He rented this house a long time ago. We hadn't had any accidents at that time. Do you know what I admire most about your dad?"

Shen Shen shook his head.

Long Anyi said: "Prepare for a rainy day, he can imagine many things in advance, just like two people playing chess, his layout ability is very strong. By the way, do you like playing Go?"

"It's okay, it's just that it didn't play well."

Long An Yi smiled slightly after hearing this: "Your father is a master, I thought my chess skills were already very good, but I lost to him in a game, and it was he who let me know that there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people. I remember that he was just married at that time, and he didn't have you yet!"

Shen Shen was stunned, he really didn't know that Long Anyi and his father had known each other for a long time, he always thought that Long Anyi and his father met during the case of Siwei Pharmaceutical.

"At that time, your father was about the same age as you are now. We participated in the Qianzhou Provincial Go competition. Of course, it was in the amateur group. The final final was between me and him. We lost to him by a margin, and we had a lottery in that game, that is, whoever loses owes the other party something. I lost. At that time, your father said that he didn't think about what he wanted me to do, and let me owe it first. Until later, two years before his accident, he called me suddenly and asked me if I still remembered the promise I made. It was a spittle and a nail, and what was promised to others must be fulfilled."

At this time, the waiter brought up the food and wine, and the old beggar didn’t need a cup. A bottle of Xiao Crooked Lang was two taels. It was delicious.

Shen Chen picked up the bowl and was ready to serve the rice. The old beggar said, "Serve your own. I'll eat it after I finish drinking, otherwise it feels like I'm pouring wine lees."

Shen Chen began to eat on his own, and the old beggar Long Anyi continued: "Actually, that promise has always been on my mind. Think about it, I haven't been able to keep a promise after so many years. It feels like I owe you money." It’s uncomfortable to hold someone’s money. I’ve kept this promise for more than 20 years, and he finally remembered it.”

Shen Shen smiled wryly, but he knew very well in his heart that it was probably because of this promise that Long Anyi became what he is today.The gentleman made a promise, thinking that Long Anyi might just abandon his family and children because of a promise, he felt a little ashamed of the old beggar in front of him, and therefore respected him in awe.

"However, I also know in my heart that it will definitely not be a good thing if that guy from Dashen asks me to honor my promise at this time. Sure enough, he directly said that Siwei Pharmaceutical is recruiting an accounting manager, and asked me to find a way no matter what. Go in. You know what? At that time I set up my own accounting firm, and I was one of the best in the industry in Qianzhou Province."

Shen Shen nodded. He had indeed investigated Long Anyi's past. Long Anyi was not exaggerating. Back then, Long Anyi set up an accounting firm. They were all his clients, but something went wrong suddenly, and then the firm closed down. He went to Siwei Pharmaceutical and became the financial manager of Siwei Pharmaceutical.

Now it seems that what happened to Long Anyi Accounting Firm should be part of his way of trying to get into Siwei Pharmaceutical.

"What secret does Siwei Pharmaceutical have?" Shen Shen asked.

Long An Yi rolled his eyes at him: "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

"Manufacturing and selling drugs?" Shen Chen said.

Long Anyi nodded slightly.

"And the fire?"

"Someone put it on purpose. The purpose was to burn me and your father inside, but they still made a mistake after all their calculations."

"But if it's just drug production and drug trafficking, it seems that neither my father nor you need to hide like this for so many years?" Shen Shen's mind is very bright, and he can think of the key to the problem at once.

"That's right, that kid asked me that too, but I can't tell you too much for the time being. I can only say that the Siwei Pharmaceutical matter is just an introduction, and this case is complicated, and there should be a bigger conspiracy behind it." A criminal group, and it seems to be involved in security issues, and it is precisely because of this that your father asked me to hide and wait for the opportunity like him."
