Chapter 428 Extra 8: Hammer and Nail’s childhood journey.
“It’s so early to go out to the stall today.”
A middle-aged man walked up to a vegetable vendor in the market with a smile and handed over a cigarette: "I never see you leaving the stall so early on weekdays. Here are three eggplants, a handful of spring onions, and half a pound of chili peppers. "
“Where there is.”
The vegetable seller took the cigarette and put it next to his ear with a smile, and quickly packaged the vegetables the man asked for: "I usually come so early on weekdays, okay, here it is."
“It’s 17 yuan in total. Since we are regular customers, Xiaoqiao will give it to you for free.”
"OK."
The man took the dish handed over by the vegetable vendor without a smile. He turned his head and looked at the big fool on the street next door who had been looking longingly at this place and said casually: "That fool is still selling fish here."
“Well, I’m always there, and I come very early every day.
The vegetable vendor said casually: "You're working hard, but it's a pity that you don't have a good brain and you have a little girl with you. No matter how hard you try, it's useless. The world is miserable. I've never seen their parents. They probably died early, so I just keep them." The next fool and a little girl left in this world will be torture enough."
“But it is said that they will not be able to stay for a few more days. The market will soon issue new regulations and no seafood vendors will be allowed to enter. They will be driven out soon.”
“You won’t see me next time you come back.”
“Forget it if you can’t see it.”
The middle-aged man didn’t care either. The world is so big and there are so many important things happening every day. Who cares whether he can see a former idiot fishmonger behind him.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay, I’ll come next time.”
ˆ “.”
Tie Shui had been sitting on the bench behind his stall, his eyes slightly dull as he looked at the middle-aged man standing next to the stall communicating with the boss. He didn't know what he was thinking, but after the man left, he slowly turned around. He moved his eyes to the cigarette held by the vendor's ear.
At this vegetable market, many old customers will pass a cigarette to the vendors when communicating with them.
But no one has ever handed it to him.
At first he thought that those people didn't know that he smoked. He struggled with this for a long time and bought a pack of the cheapest cigarettes. When there were many people, he lit them and put them to his mouth, which made him choke and cough.
But even so, no one gave him smoke.
But I can hear some other sounds from time to time.
“Hey, look at that fool, he even learned to smoke.”
“The brain is stupid but the mouth is not stupid.”
“That’s not true.”
His brain is not working well, but it does not mean that he cannot distinguish between those who are kind to him and those who are malicious to him. He does not know why those people do what they do, so he can only continue to sit there day after day. On the bench behind the stall, I spent day after day in silence.
And he didn’t smoke the pack of cigarettes again.
Leave half the package on the pavement.
"elder brother."
At this moment, a voice complained from the side: "I told you not to buy that pack of cigarettes. If you insist on buying it, it's not like you don't know that we don't have much money now. It's so expensive to buy a pack of cigarettes." , and why would you buy it if you can’t eat it?”
ˆ “.”
Tie Zhui did not speak, but turned his head to look at the little girl who was only about one meter beside him. He suddenly laughed stupidly and stroked the two small braids on the back of her head. The braids were a bit unsightly. Those braids were his of.
He studied secretly for a long time.
Because his sister said that he also wanted to have braids like other little girls, but he didn’t know how to do it, so he went to learn it secretly. It’s just that he was stupid. No matter how hard he tried to learn, he could never braid as beautiful as other girls. .
But my sister doesn’t dislike it.
On the contrary, I am very happy.
Seeing his sister happy made him happy too.
"never mind."
Perhaps because he was tired, Tie Nai stopped complaining and no longer mentioned the unfinished pack of cigarettes. Instead, he took out a leaflet from his arms like a showoff, his eyes sparkled, and he spoke with a beaming expression. road.
“There is a new seafood market that is about to open, and we are now looking for shops.”
“The person in charge of this market knows that we have been here for a year and thinks that we are experienced fishmongers. He is willing to give us a discount of rent extension for six months. After moving in for six months, we will pay the rent for the first six months. "
"This wet market will evict all seafood vendors soon. When returning the rent, they are also willing to pay liquidated damages for one month's rent. With this money, we can definitely move to the newly opened seafood market. inside."
“I’ve looked into it.”
“There are three residential areas around that market, and there are a lot of people there. There must be many people coming to buy fish to eat. We will definitely make a lot of money by then!”
As he spoke, Tie Nag entered the fantasy mode, murmuring with a dazed look in his eyes: "When I make a lot of money, I will definitely buy me several nice little dresses, and then I will buy many, many beautiful hairpins, and make many friends." Friends, it would be better if you can go to school."
“You will definitely have more good friends when you go to school.”
“Brother, what would you like to do if you were rich?”
Tie Zhui continued to smile stupidly. Everything he wanted to do when he got rich had already been told by his sister. He didn't know what to say. He couldn't say it again. He just stroked his sister's braid over and over again.
How come this braid looks better and better every time I look at it?
Unconsciously, he started to like the braid he had made, and it seemed to look pretty good.
"Forget it."
Seeing that his brother had no reaction, the iron nails turned white speechlessly like a hammer. He put one hand on his hip like a grown-up and said, "Brother, brother, if you continue to be so stupid, I will be very tired!"
“Do you know that it is very tiring for a child to worry about adults’ things?”
"I'm furious!"
Things are going very well.
Within these three days.
They evacuated the market. Before leaving, Iron Hammer distributed the unfinished half pack of cigarettes to various vendors one by one.
Someone answered the call and politely said a few words, wishing them a bright future and making a fortune in the future.
Some people did not answer, and their eyes were extremely disgusting.
But Iron Hammer did not treat them differently, but gave everyone a smiling expression.
But before settling in that seafood market, I encountered a problem.
“Don’t you have identification?”
At the desk, the person in charge of the seafood market frowned and looked at the hammers and nails that were bought before he bought them: "I asked you to get an identity certificate to register. Why are you talking so much?"
“Of course!”
Tie Nai stood up and said with a serious face: "It's at home. I'll go back and get it tonight and bring it over tomorrow."
"you?"
The person in charge of the seafood market frowned and looked at Tie Nai: "It doesn't matter whether you have it or not. Who wants it from you? It's from an adult in your family. Is it your father or your brother? Why don't you say anything?"
“Hey, as an adult you don’t speak, what do you mean by letting your children speak?”
Tie Nai hurriedly poked Iron Hammer's waist in a hurry.
"oh."
Although the person in charge of the seafood market felt a little strange, he didn't bother too much. Instead, he waved his hand and said casually: "Bring it to you tomorrow. After registration, you can enter the market normally."
“Each pavilion is decorated by us in a unified manner. You cannot add extra decorations. If you have special needs, please come to me in advance with the renderings for approval.”
“What is the name of your shop?”
“We also decorate uniformly during roll call.”
“Tie Hammer Seafood Shop.” Tie Ding replied with a serious look and a hint of yearning.
On the second day, Tie Nai signed a settlement contract with a false certificate and Tie Hammer, and after working at the stall for a day, he left the seafood market exhausted until the early morning and walked towards home.
Although the two of them were extremely tired.
But his expression was extremely excited.
Tie Hammer sat on Tie Nai's shoulders, waving his little hands in excitement: "Brother, let me tell you, the traffic of this seafood market is definitely good. We are really lucky. This stall can definitely make money." Big money.”
“I can’t wait to buy me some nice clothes.”
“No, you can’t spend your money carelessly!”
"In this case, I will buy one for me and one for you, okay brother."
"good."
Iron Hammer was still as usual, smiling sillyly. He didn't know what he was laughing at. He just felt that the world was very happy. With such a sister by his side, life was really good. If his sister could have a good-looking new It would be better to wear clothes.
It is quiet in the dead of night.
The road home was quiet, with only the two of them talking about their vision for the future.
However.
at this time.
A somewhat slovenly homeless man, who seemed to be mentally disturbed, jumped out from the shadows and startled the two of them. At the same time, he shouted in a sharp voice: "Hahaha, you are applying for fake certificates, you are applying for fake certificates." !”
“I know you are applying for fake certificates!”
“I saw you called the advertisement for fake certificates on the pillar. I’m going to tell everyone. I’m going to tell the police uncle tomorrow!”
The voice fell.
The expression of Tie Nai sitting on Tie Hammer's shoulder changed drastically, and an uncontrollable fear appeared in the depths of his pupils. Why would this homeless man know about the matter of obtaining a false certificate?
That seafood market is only used for registration and will not check the authenticity.
But once it is found out that they are applying for fake certificates, not only will their qualifications be revoked, but they will even be sent to the police station.
The two brothers and sisters have been suffering for so long, and their lives are finally getting better. If this matter is leaked, they will never be able to turn around!
This homeless man has been harassing them for a year.
They kept harassing them when they were in the vegetable market. For some unknown reason, they had never offended the homeless man. This homeless man just kept harassing them.
Just don’t let them go.
It was just a tough **** plaster, but now it is no longer a tough **** plaster, but a deadly **** plaster.
“Don’t say it!”
Iron nail, who had no idea how to solve this matter, his eyes were instantly filled with tears, and his voice trembled with tears: "I beg you, please don't tell other people, okay, I beg you." is you."
“Please, we are willing to do whatever you ask us to do.”
At this time, apart from begging for mercy and crying, she had no idea how to solve the problem.
Due to the pressure of life, I was forced to take on the role of a little adult, but I still didn’t know how to deal with the situation at hand.
It is inappropriate for a little girl who should be in primary school to learn how to apply for a fake certificate.
Girls of this age should be innocent.
Rather than start trying to break the rules to gain some benefits that you don't deserve.
This is not something that should be done at this age.
However-
Seeing the nails, he began to cry. The homeless man became even more excited, and kept shouting in a higher pitched voice: "Hey, someone has been caught applying for a fake certificate. Come on, someone here is applying for a fake certificate. Police uncle, hurry up." come!"
“Don’t yell!”
Tie Nai, who was sitting on Tie Hui's shoulder, finally couldn't control it anymore and cried loudly. He didn't know what to do at all, so he lay on his brother's head and cried loudly.
she knows.
From now on, all her hopes for the future are in vain.
Her new clothes are gone, and so are her brother’s new clothes.
Even eating may be a problem in the future.
But at this moment.
I saw Hammer, who had been grinning stupidly, suddenly stretched out his right hand to pinch the neck of the homeless man, and raised his hand in the air, looking at the homeless man who was struggling in mid-air with a livid face and beating his arms crazily. , the smile on Tie Zhui's face became even stronger.
But there was extreme anger in his pupils.
He had never seen his sister so sad.
A person who makes his sister so sad should be punished.
A few minutes later.
The homeless man gave up his struggle and collapsed limply on the ground.
The iron nail sitting on the hammer's shoulder was stiff and frightened, unable to say a word. He killed someone.
This means that if they are caught, they will have to spend the rest of their lives in prison.
no!
After quickly putting his emotions behind him, Tie Nail quickly glanced around to make sure that there was no surveillance in this dark alley and that no one noticed the movement just now.
Only then did he secretly make up his mind.
40 minutes later.
The two men, Iron Hammer and Iron Nail, tied a stone to the body and threw it in the river.
The goddess of luck is favoring them.
Along the way, there were no surveillance cameras or pedestrians for several hundred meters from the alley to the riverside. Iron Hammer stuffed the homeless man's body into his clothes and took him all the way to the riverside.
After returning home.
Tie Ding sat on the bench and boiled a pot of water, then looked at the wound on his brother's arm with a serious face.
“Brother, we must review the confession now and be prepared in case the police find us.”
“Although a homeless person will most likely not be registered as a homeless person.”
"But there is a more important thing before that. Before he died, the homeless man scratched your arm. This can easily attract people's attention. These scratches are too obvious and must be eliminated quickly."
“I will use boiling water to roughly burn both of your arms. It won’t be too serious, but it will hurt a little.”
“Brother, please bear with me.”
"I haven't thought of any other good ways. Brother, do you have any other ways? If not, I'm going to take action."
