Chapter 176 The Ferry

Lu Cenyin immediately said, "Come with me!"

After speaking.

She locked the statue of the landlord Lao Cai carrying a rice bag into the safe, and took me out the door in a hurry.

After getting into the red coupe, Lu Cenyin looked a little excited, mixed with a little joy of relief.

I understand what this girl is thinking.

After opening the treasure, at least one thing can now be clear, whether it is my parents or Lu Zhijie, they are all the targets that the old manager wants to kill.

They have a common enemy.

From this point of view, maybe my parents and Lu Zhijie are not friends, but the possibility of them being killed by Lu Zhijie is not high.

The relationship between me and her no longer needs to be stagnant because of this factor.

In the car, Lu Cenyin said to me: "When I was young, my deaf mother lived at home for a while, and she was very kind to me. I am very grateful. After she was driven away by the Lu family, because she was deaf Relatives, no one wants to be a waiter, so I can only push a cart to collect junk at Jinling Ferry."

"Although I was young at that time, I had a lot of pocket money. I often went to see my deaf mother and gave her money. But I don't know why, every time I went to her, she would yell at me, as if very angry I look like a girl, sometimes throwing things at me to drive me away."

"Slowly, I didn't dare to look for her anymore. Speaking of which, I haven't seen my deaf mother for many years now."

Jinling Ferry is a poor area.

The people inside are of different ranks, fish and dragons are mixed, and some small gongs are playing paradise.

A woman who is deaf and dumb and has no life skills collects trash there, which shows that life is extremely difficult.

I asked, "After so many years, how can you be sure that she is still at the ferry?"

Lu Cenyin's pretty face was extremely resolute, and she replied: "Look for her! She has no other way of making a living except collecting trash. As long as she is still alive, I will definitely find her."

about an hour.

The car came to the ferry.

It may be that there are very few good cars in such a messy place, and many people look around curiously.

Most of the surrounding houses are wooden houses, and they do some small businesses, such as incense candles, paper money, pots and pans, non-staple food cigarettes, meat and vegetable stalls, which appear small, crowded and cramped.Greasy, dark, dirty water can be seen everywhere on the ground, garbage is piled up in the open air in many corners, flies are flying around, and wild dogs are digging.

Lu Cenyin led me around inside the ferry.

Relying on her vague memories back then, she was looking for the place where the deaf mother lived.

Occasionally, some dirty little beggars will be encountered on the road.

Seeing them, I think about my own childhood and give them some pocket money.

One or two hundred yuan is a drop in the bucket for us.

But they may have never asked for so much money, and they looked very happy. They didn't take the money to buy things, and they didn't leave. Instead, they followed us around from a distance with great curiosity.

Time has passed too long.

The area of ​​the ferry is very large, with a population of tens of thousands, and the appearance of the four plank houses is basically the same.

Lu Cenyin got lost and couldn't find the original place.

In desperation, she had no choice but to ask all the way, but she asked the owners of seven or eight small shops, and they all said that they did not know such a person.

Lu Cenyin looked a little frustrated, and turned to me and said: "It seems that we need to find a nearby waste collection station to ask, if we can't ask again, we may need to ask someone for help to get a list of all Jinling waste collection stations. Check them out one by one."

I am noncommittal.

Doing so would be too much work.

I turned around and waved to a little beggar who had been following us.

Seeing the little beggar, he ran over quickly.

I asked, "Little friend, do you know where a deaf, dumb, and tattered grandma lives in Dukou?"

The little beggar's face was dark and his nose was dripping with pus. He nodded very seriously: "I know where she lives, the tattered old deaf milk."

I was overjoyed immediately: "You take us to find her."

The little beggar replied: "Good!"

He turned around and walked forward.

Seeing this, Lu Cenyin's eyes widened, she looked at me incredulously, and asked, "How do you know he knows the way?"

I replied: "Because he is the same as when I was a child."

Lu Cenyin: "..."

When I was a trouser party when I was a child, I had no other skills, but I trained three special skills, one is to act poorly, the other is to observe who has money in their pockets, and the third is to be extremely well informed about people and things nearby .

One thing, very impressive.

We once found out that a woman had cuckolded her husband and told Brother Cong about it.Brother Cong, that bastard, asked us to stop a woman on her way home from get off work, and threatened her to give us money, and if she didn't, we would tell her husband about the matter.

The woman was frightened and cried at that time, and tremblingly gave us 300 yuan to seal our mouths.

In 300, [-] yuan was a huge sum of money.

Brother Cong was very happy that day and added a chicken leg to each of us for dinner.

If the deaf mother had been collecting trash at the ferry, even though there were tens of thousands of people at the ferry, these little beggars would definitely know about it.

Followed the little beggar through five or six alleys and came to the entrance of an alley.

Lu Cenyin looked very excited, and said to me: "This is the place, and the deaf mother has never changed places!"

Arriving at the door of an extremely dilapidated wooden house, the little beggar pointed to the door and said, "This is where she lives."

There is an old-fashioned lock on the outside of the wooden house, and there is no wooden cart outside, so it must have been collected somewhere.

I gave the little beggar 100 yuan, touched his head, and said, "Thank you, let's wait for her here."

After the little beggar took the money, he turned and left.

But after walking more than ten meters away, he turned around again, opened his eyes wide, sucked the pus and snot, and asked, "Boss, are you in a hurry to sell junk? If you are in a hurry, I will take you to another place. She might be there, don't wait here."

I smiled and said, "OK!"

The little beggar took us away again.

Half an hour later, they came to the gate of an underground gambling house.

There was a wooden cart at the door, and a lot of junk was piled up on it.

Pointing to the underground gambling house, the little beggar said: "The deaf grandma often picks up mineral water bottles, cigarette cases and discarded poker inside, and sometimes helps the people inside run errands to buy food."

After speaking, he ran to play.

Lu Cenyin and I looked at each other and saw excitement in each other's eyes.

At a distance of ten meters from the casino, I saw a dozen bare-chested men in rubber shoes. They were squatting on the ground, eating boxed lunches and chatting. Each of them had a wooden abacus beside them. .

I have good hearing, and I can hear them still with a northern accent.

I couldn't help being dumbfounded.

The ferry is indeed a place where fish and dragons are mixed up, and there are still such old professionals who come here to make a living.

Lu Cenyin and I entered the casino.

In a corner of the casino, I finally saw the deaf mother.
