Chapter Nineteen: Good Brother, I Wrong You
The next afternoon, York City Railway Station.
Xu Cheng stood at the gate of crowds and had already declined several waves of taxi drivers who were trying to come up to solicit customers.
Fortunately, he was not weak, so he was not forcibly dragged into the car by these taxi drivers with a fat face.
In just half an hour, several fights broke out in order to grab the guests. Pickpockets and thieves walked back and forth among the onlookers and gained a lot.
The security guards at the train station were sitting lazily in the distance, turning a blind eye to all this.
This is the Lower Town, and chaos is the daily routine.
It was almost the agreed time, and a young man with a straight facial features and a faint beard came out of the gate.
Xu Cheng, who had seen the photo, suddenly recognized that this was Qi Minghui. He did not come forward rashly, but observed it from a distance first.
Unlike the shy but clean big boy in the photo, Qi Minghui's hair is messy at this moment, his clothes are old and wrinkled, and he has an unforgettable melancholy temperament. He doesn't look like a young college student, but more like a down-and-out backpacker.
He stood at the gate, looked around, then took out his cell phone from his body. Just as he was about to make a call, Xu Cheng had already come to him: "No need to call."
Qi Minghui looked up in surprise, unable to believe that the young handsome guy in front of him was a netizen, and hesitated: "Are you... strong if you ask?"
"It's me."
Xu Cheng stretched out his hand at him: "Welcome to the simple and simple York City."
Qi Minghui held his hand tightly and threw all his concerns and doubts behind him: "What can you do to find the murderer? Just say whatever you need for me!"
"This is not a place to talk, come with me."
Qi Minghui had no extra salute except a backpack, and Xu Cheng took him away from the train station.
There are more taxi drivers coming to pick up passengers.
Qi Minghui tends to find a cheaper taxi, but Xu Cheng said, "Don't pay attention to them, I drove here. In order to pick you up, I just bought a new car in the morning."
Qi Minghui was shocked: "How can you be so embarrassed? It's too wasteful."
Xu Cheng waved his hand indifferently: "Money is spent, there is no cost or expense. Besides, we need to find the murderer next. Transportation is essential. For revenge, it is worth it no matter what the price is paid."
Qi Minghui looked at Xu Cheng's back and suddenly felt a little moved.
That's right, it's worth it no matter what the price you pay for revenge.
The two of them came to the green belt outside the train station. Xu Cheng reached out to pat him for fear of the new car, turned around and pointed at Qi Minghui and said, "How is it?"
Qi Minghui looked at the two-person bicycle locked together with iron chains and telephone poles in front of him, and fell into silence.
Although this is also a car, it is a little different from the car he imagined.
Facing Xu Cheng's eyes as he shared good things, Qi Minghui smiled embarrassedly and politely: "It's...it's pretty good, very environmentally friendly."
Seeing Xu Cheng bent down and unbutton the iron chain, Qi Minghui finally couldn't help it: "Not it."
Such a car actually needs to be locked with iron chains?
Xu Cheng was about to answer when he suddenly heard someone yelling not far away: "Where is my car?"
The two of them turned their heads and looked at a young man with an angry face, holding a thick iron chain that had been cut, looking around: "Which bastard steals my bicycle?"
Xu Cheng and Qi Minghui looked at each other.
Xu Cheng was about to speak, but Qi Minghui took the lead and said, "I understand, I am superficial."
His understanding of the four words "simple" customs has slightly deviated.
Xu Cheng smiled and said, "Just order it, who made us all poor people? It's hard to make money and shit is hard to eat."
Qi Minghui also empathized with it: "Yes, after I left the campus, I realized how difficult it is to make money. For a while, I even kept buying lottery tickets. I hope that millions of dollars can fall from the sky. Unfortunately, I have not even won the ten-dollar consolation prize."
Xu Cheng put away the chain and replied: "I have won the prize of 5 million, and it's still cash."
Qi Minghui stared at him with wide eyes: "Really?"
Xu Cheng nodded: "Of course, I woke me up later because I couldn't find the box to hold cash."
Qi Minghui: "..."
If you tease me like this, will your conscience hurt?
Seeing Qi Minghui's speechless appearance, Xu Cheng laughed and raised his legs to get on the bicycle: "Stop daydreaming, get on the bike."
Qi Minghui sat in the back seat and rode staggeringly with Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng took Qi Minghui to Xiacheng District, found a cheap hotel, and opened a room for him.
The benefits of living in the city are not only cheap but also no registration is required. Even if you are a vicious criminal, you can live as long as you give money.
The only disadvantage is that it is insecurity. Being stolen is common, and robbery happens frequently.
After entering the room, Xu Cheng said to Qi Minghui: "Have you eaten? Why don't you eat something first."
Qi Minghui shook his head: "No, let's talk about the main business first."
“Gu…”
As soon as he finished speaking, a clear sound came from his stomach.
Qi Minghui looked down and said seriously: "I'm having a stomachache, not hungry."
Xu Cheng: "..."
A portion of pig's feet rice was delivered quickly, and Qi Minghui sat on the ground and ate it voraciously.
Because of the rush, he has not been in the water since last night.
If it weren't for his 5,000 yuan trip last night, Xu Cheng would have doubted whether this guy was here to cheat food and drink.
After Qi Minghui had eaten almost the same food, Xu Cheng said, "You don't look like a college student now."
Qi Minghui swallowed his last sip of rice, took a sip of water, shook his head and said, "I haven't been to school for a long time, so I'm not a student."
In order to avenge his sister, he has abandoned his studies and worked to make money while searching for the murderer.
The hardships that have suffered from last year to this day are more than the hardships that have suffered in more than 20 years of life.
But no matter how hard or tired he is, he never chooses to give up.
Xu Cheng empathized with it. After his parents disappeared two years ago, he was in college and had to graduate early to find a job to support his sister.
In fact, if we don’t count the age before time travel, Xu Cheng is only twenty years old now, one year younger than Qi Minghui.
After Qi Minghui finished his meal, he took a shower at Xu Cheng's request and washed away all the sweat and smell of his body.
After changing out, the two of them sat down face to face.
Without Qi Minghui's urging, Xu Cheng took the lead and said, "Although I was attacked by the murderer a few days ago, you have read the information and you should know that even if the murderer did not kill me, he would likely choose to leave York City."
According to the information, the murderer became very cautious after being chased by the Bureau of Investigation. Although he would kill the insider, he would run away without hesitation once there was a risk of exposure.
Qi Minghui nodded, which was also the reason why he rushed over overnight without hesitation, because he was worried that the murderer would never be found in the sea after leaving York City.
Xu Cheng continued: "So our primary purpose is not to find out the identity of the murderer, but to prevent him from leaving York City."
Qi Minghui felt that Xu Cheng made sense, but he couldn't figure out how to prevent the other party from leaving York City without knowing the identity of the murderer.
"Do you have a way?"
“I have an immature idea that the success rate may not be high.”
"Then don't worry about the success rate. It's better to have ideas than not."
Qi Minghui looked at Xu Cheng with an impatient look: "Tell me, what should I do?"
He had had enough of the aimless days, and Xu Cheng's appearance was like a beam of light in a long dark night. Even if it was fleeting, he would still hold on.
Facing his expectant look, Xu Cheng did not keep insincere: "Just make the murderer unable to leave, he has to kill us."
Qi Minghui asked in confusion: "What do you mean is to let us become the bait for the murderer?"
Xu Cheng explained: "Yes, do you know how to lead a snake out of the hole? If you want to kill a snake, you have to lead the snake out of the hole first, and leading a snake requires bait."
Qi Minghui understood Xu Cheng's meaning and frowned and said, "But what are we using to tempt him?"
The targets the murderer targeted were all women, but they were both men.
Qi Minghui glanced at Xu Cheng's face and suddenly an idea came up.
Is Xu Cheng planning to wear women's clothing to seduce the murderer?
