his robbery

The butt of the new car was hit with a hole, but it can still be driven without delaying the driving.The driver sat in the driver's seat and was already careful, but now he was hit by the car for no reason, and he couldn't pay compensation, so he became more careful. While starting the car slowly, he looked up at the white motorcycle in the rearview mirror. Ni: "Master Bai, next is Zhongyuan Company?"

Bai Mani looked down at the phone number on his palm, read it over and over again, trying to remember it in his heart: "No, let's go home!"

Then he lowered his hands, clasped them and rubbed them vigorously.

The car walked slowly through several streets, and finally turned a corner in front of a Western-style house.As soon as the car horn sounded outside the door, the porter's footman rushed out and opened the door.The chauffeur drove in along the flat concrete road, until the car was parked in front of the western-style building in the yard.After the servants in the building rushed out to help Bai Mani get out of the car, he continued to move forward and ran to the garage.

The western-style building is three stories high. From the outside, it looks like a Renaissance-style building, which can be called magnificent, but the interior decoration of the building is nothing special, just the most ordinary aura of prosperity.It is not difficult for Bai Mani to walk on the flat ground now, the soles of his leather shoes are stepping on a large carpet that is about an inch thick. He lifted the curtain and entered the small hall without a sound.There was a faint smoke in the small hall, and Lian Yi was lying on the sofa, smoking a cigar in an awkward manner.

After the mutiny, he lived in Shanxi for another three months, and it was not until now that he was able to return to Tianjin.His team has been downsized into a division, and Li Ziming's letter of appointment as a division commander has also come down.If not, he would not be able to come back—before everything was finalized, Li Ziming did not dare to give him freedom, fearing that if he still had power, if he left his control, he would immediately summon the old department and re-arrange the flop.

The useless air that I haven't suffered for many years has been enough in these three months.Fortunately, he can think about it, he should obey his fate, he should obey his fate, even if he refuses to admit it at all in his heart, but he is powerless, so he can only comfort himself.Besides, there was never any reason to bring soldiers to the seventies and eighties. He is over half a year old, and he can be regarded as an old man, and it is time to disarm and return to the fields.

Lian Yi exhaled a few puffs of thin smoke from his mouth and nose, and Lian Yi smiled lazily at Bai Mani. Although he is an elderly person, his hair and clothes are still meticulous. The method is to pretend to be a middle-aged man again.White hair is naturally not beautiful, but for Lian Yi, it is better than hair loss.Choose one of two evils, as long as the number can be guaranteed not to decrease, let it go for nothing!

Even though Bai Mani stayed with him day and night and never parted for a moment, he still couldn't understand his newly born white hair.Bai Mani is young, beautiful, full of youth and time, so watching him study his head and hair all day long, and watching him look in the mirror suspiciously in the morning and evening, I can't help but want to sigh and laugh at the same time.He even felt that Lian Yi was holding his breath all the time - holding on, holding on, holding on, begging for nothing, clenching his teeth, trying not to grow old.

Looking away from Lian Yi's temples, Bai Mani slowly walked to the sofa and sat down.He clenched his fist and thumped his left thigh, and then he punched Lian Yi with his elbow: "Come here and have a word with you."

Lian Yi sat up straight and tilted his head slightly towards him: "All ears."

Bai Mani stretched his legs, clasped his hands together, stretched them between his legs and rubbed them slowly: "I met Ma Congrong on the street, and he said he has news about my elder brother."

Lian Yi bit his cigar, his expression remained unchanged, he just nodded: "Well, what then?"

Bai Mani continued: "Didn't my elder brother lose the army? He... He wanted to commit suicide at the time, but was saved by Gu Chengxi. He was alive, but the situation is very bad now. One is that he is very ill and has pneumonia. The second is that he has lost his heart and has no will to survive at all."

Speaking of this, he paused, and suddenly wanted to cry for no reason, but there were no tears, only a little cry in his heart, rushing to his head one after another, making his breathing disordered and his voice trembling: "Ma Congrong said, I don’t know how long he hasn’t eaten, he doesn’t eat, he doesn’t eat, Gu Chengxi sometimes guesses that he won’t be able to survive, so he forcefully feeds him some soup, or asks the doctor to inject him with nutritional injections ...Now, there is only one breath left..."

Then he turned his head to look at Lian Yi, and he pleaded pitifully: "He is in Shunde Mansion, I want to go over and take a look at him, and persuade him a few words, but he is used to being proud, and he can't turn around this corner in his heart. I believe I can Persuade him, please do me a favor, let me go, okay?"

Lian Yi put down his cigar and said with a smile: "It deserves it, their Huo family is full of stubborn breeds, if Huo Jingheng dies stubbornly this time, he deserves to die."

Bai Mani immediately shoved him: "Stop talking nonsense, think I'm just kidding with you?"

Lian Yi pondered for a while with a smile on his face, and was about to speak when a car horn sounded outside the building again.The two masters of the house were present, and as usual, no one should come back, so Bai Mani was taken aback for a moment, and Lian Yi got up and went to the window to look out——after seeing it clearly, his color suddenly changed, and he turned around Take a step to go out the door.But before he could reach the door, Li Ziming had already entered the hall with a chill in his body.

Bai Mani sat on the sofa without saying a word, and Lian Yi asked without thinking, "Who asked you to come?"

Li Ziming raised his hand to take off his military cap, turned around and buckled it on the coat rack in the corner of the room, then took off his yellow woolen coat by himself, and hung it up neatly.Turning to Lian Yi politely, he said in a low voice, "I have business to go to Peking, so I came to Tianjin on the way, and I want to see you."

Lian Yi sneered, then waved his hand directly: "Get out, get out now!"

Li Ziming looked at him: "The military seat——"

Lian Yi turned to the window with his hands on his hips, and made a ridiculous expression at the same time: "Army seat? The army is gone, where should I sit?"

Li Ziming stepped forward and stood in front of the window, leaning sideways on the window sill to look at his face: "Gang Feng."

These two words made him bite low and clearly, and he couldn't tell where the ferocity was, which shocked Bai Mani on the sofa.Lian Yi was even more taken aback, and then kicked Li Ziming: "Bastard, that bastard who crawled out of the pile of dead people, you are the one who called this the fuck?"

This kick was so hard that it hit Li Ziming's left knee.And Lian Yi continued to scold: "Don't think that you can go to Lao Tzu's team to show off your power now that you have swallowed up Lao Tzu's team! I have money and people, and I live behind closed doors. I don't rely on you!"

Li Ziming lowered his head and rubbed his knees, took a good look at Bai Mani, and then replied calmly: "I know you have money and someone else, otherwise I wouldn't worry about leaving you alone in Tianjin."

Lowering his head and kicking his left leg, Li Ziming raised his eyes to look at Lian Yi, and continued, "I don't have any other purpose in coming here, I just miss you."

Lian Yi was so angry that his face turned pale, but his tone was eerie and gentle: "Baby, you go back to your Shanxi, and I live in my Tianjin. We will make a clean break from now on. You are young and promising, and your future is limitless; As for me, with the money in my hand, it’s not a problem to raise another hundred boys. I don’t lack one of you, and you don’t lack one of me. Right? Okay?”

Li Ziming stared fixedly at Lian Yi, and after a while, said in a low voice, "I miss you so much."

Then he took a step forward, hugged Lian Yi, and then nodded to Bai Mani: "Make room."

Bai Mani leaned on his cane and stood up, and took a step sideways meaningfully: "Ziming, if you have something to say, don't force him."

Li Ziming ignored it, and dragged Lian Yi onto the sofa.Lian Yi is also capable and strong, but after all, Li Ziming was really ruthless when he was young and strong, and he was by no means an opponent.Bai Mani stepped back while watching, and saw that Li Ziming had torn off Li Ziming's belt, and Lian Yi's hand was groping around on the coffee table, obviously looking for a weapon, but the ashtray was far away from his fingertips. There is still a distance, and the only thing he can grab is a newspaper.

Bai Mani stopped at the door helplessly, trying hard for Lian Yi.Lian Yi's hand stretched out longer and longer, and it was about to touch the heavy glass ashtray, but Li Ziming felt it, and immediately grabbed his wrist and pulled his hand back.

Bai Mani didn't want to watch it, Li Ziming was simply obsessed with Lian Yi - when they fell in love, it was called infatuation; when the two parties fell out, the infatuation was renamed accordingly, and it was called Mozheng.

Putting down the curtain and closing the door, Bai Mani stood against the wall outside the hall.The hall was bustling with plopping, plopping, but no human voice.

Bai Mani was tired from standing, so he sat on the ground and continued to wait.After waiting for several hours, the door of the hall was opened.

Li Ziming came out neatly dressed in a coat and a military cap.Looking down, he saw Bai Mani on the carpet, and he said, "I went to Peiping, then I went back to Jincheng, and then I went back to Tianjin after the Chinese New Year. Thank you for your hard work, take care of him."

Bai Mani was a little afraid of Li Ziming now, so he immediately replied, "I know, don't worry."

Li Ziming nodded, then turned around and walked out of the gate.Bai Mani also supported the wall and stood up, staggering all the way back to the living room.The hall was still as warm as ever, but the warmth was complicated, and there seemed to be some inexplicable elements mixed in the air.Lian Yi sat on the sofa, dressed neatly, and his hair was not messed up. He looked up at Bai Mani, and then he lowered his eyes and continued to be busy with the work in hand - he was lighting a cigar for himself.

With a cigar in one hand and a long match in the other, his hands trembled a little, but he finally lit the cigar.Biting his cigar and taking a deep breath, he looked at Bai Mani again with a blank expression.

The two stood and sat looking at each other for a while, and Lian Yi suddenly smiled profusely.

Bai Mani laughed along with him, and while laughing, he sat back beside him, raised his hand and patted his back and said, "Old guy! You can do it, your hair is all white, and you're still so cute!"

Lian Yi smiled so much that he first bent his waist, and then leaned back: "That's not true! My luck in this life is not over yet!"

The two laughed together, laughing and laughing, and the laughter gradually turned into a miserable laugh.Lian Yi held Bai Mani's hand tightly with one hand, and held a cigar in the other hand, smoking one after another as if it was too late.

Lian Yi smoked half of the cigar in one go, and suddenly looked forward and said, "Son, don't go anywhere."

Bai Mani was silent for a moment, and then replied: "I am going to save my elder brother's life."

Lian Yi raised his head: "Life and death are fate, don't worry about him. I fully understand your narrow-mindedness. I am old, but I am not old enough to drag you down. You follow me obediently. The family business will be yours in the future."

Bai Mani smiled: "It seems that I have never seen the money. I dare not say anything about the future. Anyway, now, you are not the only one who is willing to spend money for me."

Lian Yi turned to look at him, and at the same time let go and patted his thigh: "Son, I have a lot of money."

Bai Mani felt that he was suffering enough, so he didn't want to annoy him now.Looking at him with a slight smile, Bai Mani tried his best to show a calm attitude, but he was thinking of his elder brother who was only breathing. His smile flickered, and he couldn't keep it from time to time: "Gang Feng, please I have only one family member left, you have the heart to let me watch him die?"

As if afraid of scaring someone, Lian Yi replied in a low voice: "You are the only family member left for me, and I won't let you go, not even half a step."

Bai Mani was still smiling, but suddenly he slapped Lian Yi across the mouth!

Lian Yi didn't change his expression and didn't fight back, but shook his head at him.

Bai Mani wanted to touch people with affection, so he wailed at Lian Yi, but he hadn't cried for a long time, his face was hot and his eyes were swollen, and he couldn't cry.Lian Yi smiled slightly, his idea was stronger than iron——Bai Mani is a cripple, it's great, he can't fly without putting him in a cage.

Looking at Lian Yi's smiling face, Bai Mani first felt pity for him, and then hated him.Lian Yi was originally a hard-hearted man, but since he suffered a mutiny, he felt sorry for himself and cared less about the life and death of other people, especially the one with the surname Huo.

Bai Mani knew that he would not be able to get out if he forced his way in, and it was impossible to sneak away.The family is full of privates that Lian Yi brought back from the army, with piercing eyes, they are all looking after themselves for Lian Yi, including the driver.Since it's impossible to go, don't let Ma Congrong wait and waste time, but then again, if people can't go, it's not a problem to write a letter.

Thinking of this, he stopped making trouble, walked into the room and sat down, and put a few pieces of light green cloth letter paper in front of him.Holding the unscrewed pen in his right hand, he began to compose sentences.Literally, this letter is his incarnation.

However, as soon as the door opened, Lian Yi wandered over again with his hands behind his back.He dragged a chair to sit next to the desk, put his arms across the desk, and openly read the letterhead.

Bai Mani said in a rough voice, "I haven't written it yet, what are you looking for!"

Lian Yi smiled and said, "You write yours."

Bai Mani glared at him again.Looking down at the letter paper under his hand, he carefully dropped the tip of the pen.Written down stroke by stroke, they are all well-meaning and good words, no one can find fault with them.After writing a half letter paper, he seriously lowered his head and began to draw crosses line by line.

Lian Yi didn't understand, and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

Bai Mani replied without raising his head: "It means that I still have a lot to say, but I don't know where to start at the moment, so I use this instead."

While talking, he wrote, and neatly drew half of the fork of the letterhead. He put the remaining blank letterhead in front of him, and continued to draw another full article. At the end of the drawing, he wrote the signature and date. .

Then folded the letter paper into three folds and put it in the envelope, and Bai Mani glued the seal carefully.Looking at Lian Yi again as a challenge, Bai Mani said, "I'll call Ma Congrong and ask him to bring the letter to my elder brother."

Ma Congrong was packing his bags at home, when he received a call, he rushed to Lian Zhai immediately.Meeting Lian Yi in the mansion, Ma Congrong talked and laughed happily, and called him "Old Feng" when he opened his mouth, and was still as affectionate as ever.Lian Yi shook his hand, joked a few words, and patted Bai Mani on the back and said, "It's too cold, so I won't let Mani go with you. I'm going to see a patient. Before you saw the patient, he fell ill first, and instead became your burden."

Ma Congrong understood as soon as he heard this, and immediately nodded in agreement.In front of Lian Yi, Bai Mani handed the letter to Ma Congrong very coldly.Ma Congrong saw that his complexion was not good, so he wanted to leave.Lian Yi had no reason to send Ma Congrong off in person, so Bai Mani, accompanied by a footman, walked into the courtyard with Ma Congrong.

When he was about to reach the gate of the courtyard, Bai Mani suddenly staggered and accelerated, throwing off the footman behind him.He walked all the way to Ma Congrong's car and stopped. He shook hands with Ma Congrong again, made a farewell gesture, and said in a low voice: "Master Ma, I really can't get out here, except In addition to this letter, I have two more words, please bring them to my eldest brother."

Ma Congrong immediately replied softly: "You say."

Seeing that the servant was standing in the courtyard gate, Bai Mani might not be able to hear him, so he hurriedly said: "The first sentence, you tell him that the battle is over, and I'm waiting for him; I left a check in there, which he gave me last time, and I haven't used it yet."

After finishing speaking, he patted the back of Ma Congrong's hand pleadingly: "Please, bring it for me."

Ma Congrong put the envelope into his coat pocket, then smiled and replied: "Don't worry, I will never forget these two sentences. Since Young Master Bai can't go with you, I will set off with Commander Gu tonight!"
