Li Yu was not frightened, and asked, "Has something happened on the island?"

The fifth child said no.

"I don't believe it." Li Yu dragged the person aside, and said in a low voice, "Someone just broke in and wanted to leave unintentionally like us, and was killed?"

"I never said that."

It seems that it happened, Li Yu gave him a reassuring look, "I know how to do it."

In the activity center, two police officers were sitting upright, much weaker than the person being questioned.

Degree crossed his legs and took a sip of tea leisurely. Just as he put down the cup, he heard clear footsteps in the corridor, and the door of the conference room was pushed open.

Li Yu walked in without looking sideways, and nodded to the police uncle.

The content of the questioning is relatively simple. It is nothing more than what time did you see the owner of the canteen last night, did you see the faces of other people clearly, and did you hear them talking.

Li Yu answered one by one, his eyes glanced at the degree intentionally or unconsciously.

The man sat in a leisurely posture, tapping his fingers on the table slowly, not so much as being investigated by the police, but more like listening to a storytelling book.

"We have already understood the specific situation. Please rest assured, Mr. Cheng. We will definitely follow up the investigation immediately, find the murderer as soon as possible, and return justice to the deceased."

The policeman put away the pen and paper, turned around and left, and glanced at Li Yu when he passed by.

It was a look full of warning, which made people froze for a while.

For some reason, Li Yu remembered that the fifth child was talking before entering the door.

In an instant, out of thin air, cold air rushed up the back of the head along the heels, arousing goosebumps all over the body.

"Why didn't you tell the police to leave?" Degree asked, let go of his teacup and stood up.

The man was tall and muscular, like a hill, towering behind him. He only needed to raise his arms to trap the young man between himself and the table and chairs.

Li Yu turned to look at him, "This place is beautiful, why should I leave?"

The degree does not take this kind of thing, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit it and took a puff.

This was the first time Li Yu saw him smoking. When the smoke came out of the man's mouth, it easily weakened his sharp facial features.

"You won't regret staying." Degree showed an inexplicable smile, as if he had discovered something interesting.

He said, "Lonely Town is an interesting place. At other times, you might find it boring, but now, it is the most vibrant and beautiful time."

Li Yu was not tempted, and looked down at the cigarette between the man's fingers.

The scarlet sparks flickered on and off, like those eyes that shone with strange light.

The death of the owner of the commissary had no effect on the man. On the contrary, it was like a tipping point, which aroused some hidden emotions in him.

This place belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate, and it is like spring all the year round, full of vitality at any time.

Li Yu had an intuition, just to say the least, that he should be a resident of the island.

The fifth child was pacing anxiously at the door. The police had left for 10 minutes, and the two hadn't come out yet, and they didn't know what they were doing.

Duo is not very talkative, and he never ambiguously beats people. I heard from Uncle Li that when he first came, the island was full of fishermen, and the fish they caught were eaten by themselves, and they were not sold.

Later, Duo returned to his hometown in fine clothes and brought a construction team and a lot of money. There were some things that the islanders had never seen before.

Some of them were very courageous and tried to sneak in in the middle of the night to plunder money, but they were caught.

At the same time, there are fewer enemies and more enemies, and they still have the mind to play tricks, always looking for tricky positions to attack, which makes people feel unbearable pain, and there is no evidence of being beaten.

The frightening thing about this kind of person is that it makes people suffer and has nowhere to complain. The fifth child is really afraid that the young people will accidentally collide to such an extent that they will be hated and retaliated against.

He stopped and decided to go in to have a look. Just as he stepped on the stairs, the door of the activity center was opened, revealing a familiar face.

The fifth child's throat was tight, and his heart was beating violently.

The degree is not the same as usual, the smile is obvious on the stern facial features, but the coldness is rolling in the eyes, which makes people feel the urge to run away.

The fifth child swallowed, grinned foolishly, and wanted to lean to the right to make way for the man, but his body opposed him, and he took a step to the left, just blocking the man's way.

The degree tutted, getting impatient.

The fifth child trembled, fearing that he would make a wrong step again, so he simply stayed where he was.

With a restrained expression, he passed a cigarette over.

The fifth child took it with both hands, took out the lighter and lit it for the boss.

Cigarettes, alcohol, and cards are the best bridges between men and men.

The fifth child took a deep breath, and the smoke circulated in his lungs, which relieved his tension. He said with a smile, "Mr. Cheng, Lin Zhouzhou is just a child, and he is ignorant. Please forgive me for the offense."

Degree narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you familiar with him?"

The fifth child was frightened, "It's average, I've seen it twice."

"That can barely be called an acquaintance." Degree flicked the cigarette ash, "Since you are an acquaintance, you can say what you want, and you can't hide it. Young people are very curious, and if you don't tell him, he will check it himself."

As far as the topic is concerned, the fifth child already understands.

There is no end to human beings' exploration of the unknown. The more vague he is, the more the young people want to know. If the private investigation encounters someone's tricks, the consequences will be hard to say.

Back then, when he first came here, he had committed suicide, and it was hard for him to save his life.

The fifth child stopped recalling, only to realize that the degree man had disappeared and walked away without a sound.

Li Yu has been guarding the door, waiting for the degree to leave before coming out.

"What were you talking about?" Without intending to hide his eavesdropping, he asked openly, "What did he ask you to tell me?"

The fifth child scratched his head, still struggling, mainly because he was afraid of scaring people.

Li Yu just folded his arms and watched, he wasted a lot of time.

The two stared and stared in silence for about tens of seconds, and the fifth child was defeated, "You guessed it right, besides the four of us, other people have indeed been to the island."

Li Yu was not surprised, "What happened to that man?"

"Dead, fell off the reefs, dead." The bloody picture flashed in front of his eyes, and the fifth brother frowned, "It happened to be the day when Siyan went out to shop, and he followed behind, trying to get on the plane and leave here .”

"The apron is usually guarded by security teams. They found him and chased him all the way to the reefs... I don't know exactly what happened, but the man was indeed dead, and the body was thrown into the sea on the spot."

This is too fucking crazy, Li Yu asked, "No one called the police?"

"No." Lao Wu bit his cigarette butt, looking worried, "Anyway, be careful, you heard what Mr. Cheng said just now, don't ask nonsense, just stay here."

"Ignore these weird places, this place is not bad, the pace of life is slow, and people don't interfere with each other, it's good."

"You have a big heart." Li Yu sincerely admired it.

The fifth child smiled, with helplessness in his words, "Otherwise, what can we do, Sister Lan and I are alone, where is life?"

Some people have no worries, just like duckweed, as long as there is water, they can live. Some people have worries, and they will leave here if they die.

Li Yu felt that he could be the former, and the task was on his shoulders, but he was forced to go in the direction of losing his life.

The death of the owner of the canteen did not cause any splash in the small town. On the way back, the shops on both sides of the street were open, and occasionally one or two could be seen chatting on the side of the street.

When passing by the bar, Lao Wu stopped, "The bar will open in three or four hours, I'm too lazy to go back and come back, so I won't be with you."

Li Yu glanced at the grocery store next door to the bar. There was a recruitment sticker on the door, and the recruitment content only stipulated the age limit.

Lao Wu looked over, "I really want to try it, I'll go in with you and ask."

The boss is a slim, middle-aged woman, tall, with a big frame, she looks like a man only by her face and figure.

She was wearing a big curly hair, and her mouth was bright red. When she saw an acquaintance next door, she pretended to say hello, and her voice was demonic.

The fifth child called her Boss Jin and pushed Li Yu forward, "Aren't you always short of people here? See if this little brother can do it."

Boss Jin's critical eyes brushed the young man's face, Lan Hua fingered his forehead hair and asked, "What do you know?"

Li Yu said, "I can do the math, the calculator is good."

There is no computer in the store, and accounts are calculated and entered manually. After hearing this, Boss Jin threw over an account book, "You can type it up, and I will take a look."

Li Yu glanced at it, making a fuss.

He set up the ledger and calculator and began typing on the keyboard.

Seeing that the young man was about to get out of the shadow, Boss Jin slapped the table and shouted to stop, "Stay here, come to work at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

Li Yu had no objection, and asked about the salary.

Boss Jin said, "The salary is [-], and the salary will be paid at the end of each month."

The boss is a shrewd person, and he would not agree to advance salary. Li Yu lowered his posture and asked with drooping eyebrows, "Boss, can the salary be settled daily this month, [-] per day."

"No money?" Boss Jin sneered lightly in disdain, and mercifully said, "Okay, let's not make an example."

The fifth child put his arm around Li Yu's shoulders and joked, "Then I will leave it to you, my little brother."

After finishing speaking, he hooked the young man's neck and led him out, with a long face.

He spat, "Why don't you raise the salary with her, I remember that the clerk before her was [-]."

Li Yu said forget it, it's useless to lift it.

"She was sure that I was new here and needed money urgently, and it was impossible to make concessions." Even if I applied for a job elsewhere, the result was the same.

"That's right." The fifth child patted the young man on the shoulder comfortingly, "We'll change it when it's suitable."

The work matter is settled, leaving Lin Xiaozhou to eat.

After returning home, Li Yu pulled him in front of him, "From tomorrow onwards, you will be home alone, is it okay?"

"Can I find someone to play with?" The child's voice was low, fearing that others would dislike him and be thrown out.

Thinking back to when I was washed up on the beach, the child looked like a beating, and I have to sigh, life, you are the most awesome sculptor.

"Yes, but you must come back for dinner on time." Li Yu had a serious expression, trying to create a majestic image for himself.

Lin Xiaozhou nodded, his eyes sparkling, "Brother, where do you go to work?"

The child ran around the town every day, and had already figured out the town thoroughly. When Li Yu mentioned it a little, he remembered which store it was.

"That store is not good." Lin Xiaozhou frowned, "I heard that the owner is very vicious."

"Why is it so fierce?"

"She has a bad temper. Once when we were playing outside his door, she threw things at us." After complaining, the little boy reached out to grab Li Yu's hand, "Don't go, change to another house."

Li Yu patted him on the head, "She was scaring you."

He said so in his mouth, but he didn't think so in his heart. Boss Jin felt really strange, and that store was also strange.

Generally speaking, the grocery store sells small groceries, daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, towels, toothbrushes, etc. In Boss Jin's store, apart from ordinary groceries, there are actually shovels, iron hammers, and electric drills.

These few things are placed in the grocery store, no matter how you look at them, they are against harmony.

In the evening, Li Yu went to the beach to dig a few small crabs and cooked a big pot of porridge. Have a big meal in the evening.

At exactly eight o'clock the next morning, the grocery store was already open.

Looking at the open shop, Li Yu had mixed feelings.

If you think about it with your butt, you will definitely be criticized if you go in. No boss likes to arrive later than himself.

Boss Jin was holding the feather duster in his hand. As soon as the young man entered the door, he had a cold face and said, "I was a boss before you were an employee. Xiao Lin, this is not appropriate."

Li Yu said yes, "I will definitely arrive early tomorrow."

Boss Jin hummed, and threw the things in his hands over, "First dust off the dust, and then tidy up the shelves. By the way, the water must be wrung out when mopping the floor, so as not to leave water marks on the floor."

Li Yu smiled, "Okay, boss."

Boss Jin moved his butt off the stool, went to the door, and stared at the store with his arms folded. Whenever someone inside did something wrong, he would immediately shout at the top of his voice.

Li Yu sorted out the shelves with his back facing the outside, sorted and arranged the things, and he stopped his gaze on the electric drill in the corner.

Glancing outside, Boss Kim was talking to a store clerk who had just arrived.

Li Yu asked the system to stare at the door, and squatted down to study the electric drill. This thing looked brand new, but there was a very shallow scratch on the back where the trademark was pasted.

"1551, did you say this thing was used?"

"Not sure." 1551 said, "You can look at the drill."

Outside the door, Boss Jin didn't see anyone from the window, so he walked quickly to the door.

"Lin Zhouzhou, where are you?" She yelled, went behind a shelf, and found the young man was squatting on the ground, diligently wiping the legs of the shelf.

Li Yu wiped his sweat with his arm, and saw Boss Jin froze for a moment, "Boss."

Boss Jin hummed lightly, sat behind the cash register, and didn't plan to go out again.

Li Yu glanced over the shelf closest to the wall, went inside, took out the mop, and started mopping the floor.

Boss Jin's eyes were laser-like, sweeping from the young man's neck to his back, from his buttocks to his thighs, and finally stopped on the young man's white and tender hands.

Her eyes flickered slightly, and she asked with a smile, "Your family should be in a good position."

Li Yu mopped the floor, "The well-off level is not very good."

Boss Jin came out from behind the table and leaned back, "Do you miss home?"

The three words made Li Yu alert, his expression unchanged.

A few seconds later, he brewed a few traces of depression and pain, "I don't want to, my parents are too busy with work, they don't care about me at all, it doesn't matter if I am in the family or not."

"That's it." Boss Jin clicked his tongue sympathetically, "But what if they come to you? Do you want to call home?"

Li Yu stopped and looked up at the middle-aged woman. Aunt, do you think I am very stupid, the kind who can just lie to me and get hooked?

"I don't want to." He wrinkled his nose and sniffed, with an expression on the verge of tears, "They don't need me, and I don't need them either. I live a good life on the island."

Anyone who heard these words would know that they were angry words, Boss Jin pretended to be friendly and patted him on the shoulder, and went inside.

In addition to storing goods and cleaning tools, there is also a toilet in the interior.

Li Yu handed over the eavesdropping task to the system, and quietly came to the corner. There was no drill bit on the electric drill, so it should be placed elsewhere.

I searched around on the shelf to no avail, then knelt down on the ground and looked under the shelf. There was a dark gray box near the corner.

"What is she doing?"

"Call." 1551 said, "I just happened to talk about you."

Li Yu dragged the box out calmly, "What are you talking about?"

1551 said, "Talk about whether you really want to stay."

Li Yu broke the lock on the box and opened the lid. Inside were several different types of drill bits. The most noticeable one was a hollow drill bit.

Hollow bit drills are not common, and are generally used in fortifications such as railways or tunnels. If necessary, they can also be used to take rock samples.

Li Yu looked at the closed door and asked the system, "Is there a magnifying glass?"

1551 said, "Only screenshots can be zoomed in."

Li Yu said yes.

After receiving the instruction, the system took a clear screenshot and enlarged it to thirty times.

On several drill bits, the seemingly smooth surface has more or less small scratches.

The scratches are basically concentrated on the drill bit, and it should be put away after only one use.

Li Yu returned the things to their original positions, and continued to mop the floor as if nothing had happened. Remembering that the system said that Boss Jin had talked about him on the phone, he suddenly felt a little heavy.

He's not stupid, he knows that the boss was spying on him just now.

If he had shown a strong desire to leave at that time, he wondered if he would end up the same as the man who was thrown into the sea.

There was the sound of high-heeled shoes thumping, and Boss Jin came out with a sullen face, as if he had quarreled with someone.

Li Yu didn't dare to say anything, went in to wash with a mop, and asked the system, "What's wrong with her?"

1551 said, "I don't know."

Li Yu muttered, "Didn't I ask you to monitor carefully?"

1551 stopped talking.

Li Yu squatted down and twisted the mop with his hands, feeling something was wrong.

The system is composed of small programs one by one. There is no emotional module, so it should not be dereliction of duty.

With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Li Yu smiled triumphantly, and understood that Boss Jin should talk about that secret with someone.

He stood up, went out with a mop, and met a pair of black eyes head-on.

The level is buying cigarettes, if it is expensive for death, it is expensive for death, it is expensive for Liqun, and it is soft for Fuchun Mountain Residence. Even the original owner's father would not be willing to smoke this cigarette.

Boss Jin handed a whole cigarette to the man, put his hands on the table, and said softly, "There is only one left, and I don't know if Zhang Chenggong can help me get into the cigarette this time."

The voice was delicate and pretentious, Li Yu quickly dragged away the goosebumps on the ground.

Seeing that the young man clearly saw him, he subconsciously gave him a hello without saying hello.

Li Yu put the mop on the ground, turned around and said, "I have a name, not Hey."

The degree turned away, pursed his lips tightly, unable to yell.

I don't know how this boy's parents chose the name, the girls chirp, it's like calling a nickname, there is a kind of overly intimacy.

Seeing the man's lips move, Li Yu expressed his understanding.

The name of the original owner, whether it is heard or shouted, is quite awkward.

Forget it, if he dares to shout, he may not dare to agree.

Li Yu sighed in his heart, buried his head and continued to work, he didn't notice when he bent down, his feet slipped, his body tilted uncontrollably, and the mop was also thrown out, just hitting him.

Boss Jin came out from behind the counter in fright and shouted, "Lin Zhouzhou, do you have eyes?"

No one knows how much money the degree has in his hands, but he spends a lot, always asks for the best when buying things, and never haggles.This kind of customers may not be able to find them even if they burn high incense.

Not to mention her grocery store, which store in the town didn't coax this man.

Fortunately, the God of Wealth was beaten by the new clerk under his own nose, which is not bad!

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Boss Jin's lungs were about to explode. He yelled at the young man who had just held on to the shelf and stood firm, "You, you hurry up and apologize to Mr. Cheng, or I..."

"Shut up." Degree interrupted her coldly, "You are not allowed to yell at him."

Li Yu and Boss Jin were dumbfounded.
