Rebirth: 1977

The proprietress followed into the room with a thermos in her hand. Seeing Li Haomin quickly close the door, she was stunned for a moment and hurriedly explained:

"Boss, I don't dare to do that. I'm not popular at my age. I know that. What I'm talking about is to introduce you to young and beautiful girls.

She must be young and beautiful!"

Li Haomin's face darkened, he took out his work ID and said seriously:

"Madam, we are on official business. Look carefully at the two people in the photo. If they enter your hotel, do not alarm them. Tell me immediately."

He spoke the Pingcheng dialect.

When she heard the young man in front of her suddenly speaking the local dialect and holding a public security work ID card in front of her, the fat proprietress was frightened and the fat on her face was shaking at the corners of her mouth.

No matter what era it is, people dare not do the chicken business openly, let alone this era? There are still calls for a severe crackdown outside.

There was a lot of information flying around about the crackdown, and any department that had any management experience was holding meetings one after another targeting small, non-standard hotels like theirs.

As a result, she was so blind as to introduce "chickens" to the police?

The proprietress was so scared that she didn't hear clearly what Li Haomin said. Her legs became weak and she begged for mercy:

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just saw that you were so handsome, so I was joking with you.

We run our business in an honest and lawful manner and never engage in any shady business."

Li Haomin raised his eyebrows:

"Don't you have ears when I talk to you? Take a good look at the people in these two photos. If they move in with you, don't alarm them and tell me right away!"

He glanced with disgust at her big, thick legs that were shaking and revealing too much of her body. It was really an eyesore.

Who doesn't know that these hotels near train stations are full of filth and that they specifically do shady business targeting out-of-town guests?

It's just a matter of one person willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten. They can't arrest everyone even if they want to. As long as the money and goods are paid and both get what they want, and they don't report the matter to their bureau, and there are no orders from above, they will just turn a blind eye.

Also, how did she think he would fall in love with her?

She came here today with an important matter on her mind, otherwise, based on her "misunderstanding" of herself just now, she should be "asked" to stay in the police station for a while.

After all, the fat lady boss was well-informed. She came to her senses and carefully took the photo printed on the white paper. After looking at it carefully, she asked cautiously:

"Leader, are they fugitives? Are you here to arrest them?"

Of course Li Haomin would not tell her the truth:

"Yes, they are two thieves, habitual offenders. You will be in charge of registration at the counter these days. If you find them, do not alarm them and tell me immediately.

As a businessman, you know the real situation best. If you scare them away, your store will always be targeted by thieves.

Remember, this is something only you know, and you can’t tell anyone else!

If you cooperate with our police to arrest them, and rectify the prostitution in your store yourself and don't do it again, I will let you go.

Otherwise, hehe..."

Li Haomin snorted coldly, the meaning of the unspoken words was self-evident.

The female boss seemed to have been pardoned. She responded respectfully and left Li Haomin's room.

Similar scenes were also taking place in the other two hotels, which was what they had agreed upon.

Shi Tiezhu and his friends all served in the army in Yangcheng. The local dialect there is difficult for mainlanders to distinguish.

The reason for requesting to live downstairs is to make it easier for colleagues outside to exchange information with people staying in the hotel.

Ye Tianshui didn't know when Wang Wei and Wang Fei would arrive in Pingcheng, and there were not many specific details in later news reports.

Li Haomin trusted Ye Tianshui, so his arrangements today were within his authority.

However, he secretly transferred the three police station chiefs including Shi Tiezhu from their jobs. If Ren Mingfeng found out, it would be an act of usurpation and a serious mistake.

But these people are in sync with each other and have worked together to consider possible events.

When the three people came out, they had arranged their work. Moreover, they could be credited for successfully capturing the fugitive, and the Pingcheng Public Security Bureau also made an indelible contribution.

If they failed to make the arrest, who can say they were not performing their duties?

Just unify the tone.

Li Haomin thought so, but he still felt uneasy when he stayed in the room.

Will Wang Wei and Wang Fei really come?

"Knock, knock, knock." Someone was knocking gently on his window. Li Haomin opened the curtains and Li Jun stuffed a lunch box in through the crack in the window.

"Eat quickly. I still need to deliver them to Shitou and Qianfeng."

Li Haomin looked and saw that the sun had already set and the sky was filled with sunset glow.

"Can you please go and see if the back of this hotel is convenient for entry and exit?"

"Okay, any new ideas?"

"No, it didn't seem appropriate to stay inside and wait. It would be dark soon after I finished dinner, so I avoided the boss here and went out to wait.

Let our brothers keep an eye on the back door."

"Should we tell a few of them to do the same?"

Li Haomin nodded: "Okay, let them not be exposed. Those two people are already scared birds, they will definitely run away if they find anything unusual."

Li Jun left quickly.

"Knock knock knock, knock knock knock," "Boss, do you want me to bring you something to eat?"

It was the boss lady’s voice.

She knew Li Haomin's identity and tried her best to please him, but she was worried that he would turn against her after completing his mission and come back to settle accounts with her.

Li Haomin was shocked. What if he went out and the proprietress came knocking on the door again?

"Madam boss, don't knock on the door if there's nothing to do. Remember what I told you!"

His tone was low and cold.

The proprietress shuddered, realizing that her flattery had backfired.

Hearing her footsteps fading away, he saw that night had already fallen. Lights on the streets and in nearby shopping malls and stores, near and far, lit up one by one. Li Haomin skillfully slipped out of the back door of the hotel.

He looked at his brother hiding in the dark and made a gesture.

Leaving the air-conditioned room, the street outside was emitting the residual heat of the sun, like a steamer.

Li Haomin found a suitable place to hide himself. He didn't know how long he would have to wait here.

I don’t even know if I can wait?

"Captain, we take turns to keep watch. We don't know how many days we have to wait. You go and rest now. We will switch positions in the second half of the night."

One of his men approached quietly and discussed.

"No, stay away from here and hide yourself."

Mosquitoes buzzed around Li Haomin, leaving bites all over his body. The itchiness was so severe that he had to grit his teeth and endure it.

The hunter who has blended into the night must not move at this time.

When they were in the army, they experienced a more difficult life.

As midnight approached, Li Haomin's eyes widened even more. He put himself in his shoes and thought that even if the fugitive was desperate, it would be unlikely for him to enter here during the day.

Suddenly, Li Haomin saw a thin man carrying a military bag and walking slowly towards the open door of the hotel.

He remembered clearly that the wanted poster stated that his younger brother Wang Wei was over 1.8 meters tall, while his older brother Wang Fei was only a little over 1.6 meters tall.

This person is very suspicious, but he looks so nonchalant that he doesn't look like a desperate fugitive.

Li Haomin did not move and continued to observe the direction where the man appeared.

The street lights are dim, and the sounds of trains entering and leaving the station mask the various sounds that occur under the cover of night.

Chen opened the door and looked inside. The thin young man was talking to the boss, who handed him a pen and paper.

Do you want him to register?
