Return To 1977 Chapter 803: Encounter
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
On the same cold and windy New Year's Eve, a wonderful encounter also happened in the "Day and Night Canteen" at the front door.
Since it was New Year's Eve, most of the brothers under "Da De He" went back to their respective homes to find their mothers.
As for him, he was too lazy to play cards and drink with You San and his gang of wild boys who were addicted to "spending the night" outside without going home, so he planned to eat something to cleanse himself for the day.
This thought led me to the "Day and Night Dining Hall" at the front door.
Not for any other reason, except that this place is a passenger business of "Beijing Railway Station" and is open day and night, but also because the dumplings here taste good.
Special days must be celebrated, right?
So "Dadehe" didn't go to the stir-fried dishes on the second floor, so as not to run into the "Bacha" gang again and have to toast them.
He sat down alone in the public cafeteria downstairs.
I ordered two taels of "Red Star", two bottles of beer, a large assorted platter, half a catty of dumplings stuffed with three delicacies, and asked the chef for a single head of garlic, and started eating and drinking.
Comfort means being comfortable, but as the saying goes, you pee more when it's cold, let alone when you're drunk.
When he was halfway through eating, he had to put down his chopsticks and go out for convenience.
I didn’t expect that something would go wrong in just such a short time.
When he came back, as soon as he entered the restaurant, he saw a "shabby" figure holding an aluminum lunch box to clean up the leftovers on his table.
You know, this is what scares you most when eating alone.
When you go to the restroom, the waiter doesn’t know you are coming back, so he can’t wait to eat or drink, so he is taken away.
The reason why "Dadehe" went out with confidence just now was actually because he had seen this kind of day. Not only were there not many customers, but the waiters were too lazy to work.
When no one greets me, I stay behind to play cards and chat. Even if I shout for a long time, I may not get a response.
But he never expected that the waiter did not reach out blindly, but his food was stared at by a "beggar".
Can he still be angry about this?
He immediately glared and cursed in a loud voice.
"Where the **** is that wild dog? It's here as soon as you smell it! You dare to stretch your paws while grandpa is peeing! Look for it!"
The figure behind him was so frightened that he almost knocked over the bottle of wine on the table and sued for mercy without looking back.
"Brother, brother, I'm sorry, I don't know..."
Unexpectedly, when they turned around again, both of them were dumbfounded.
Because they knew each other, the "beggar" was the girl who picked up rags, Tian Xianghua, who had been rescued by Da Dehe.
Not to mention that the girl's face turned red with embarrassment and she lowered her head.
"Brother, brother, how about...I...I'll buy you another one..."
"Da De He" even wanted to get into the cracks in the ground, shaking his head like a rattle.
"Sister. Look at this, I didn't know it was you. You might as well slap me for saying that...but you...you just live like this!"
After saying "Da De He", his throat tightened, his eyes widened, and he became a little excited.
To be honest, his big, short-cut head with a sinister face is really scary.
Because after drinking, not only did his eyes turn red, but a scar on his eyebrow also twitched like a living centipede.
Don’t talk about big girls, the average "Buddha" will get cramps in their calves when they see her.
But for some reason, Tian Xianghua only felt the warmth of being cared for.
But somehow, even though I wanted to laugh, tears flowed out unsatisfactorily.
And this stream can’t stop buzzing...
At this time, if anyone happens to pass by the glass window outside, they can see this scene happening in the house.
In the bright warm light, a rough man arrogantly pressed a girl who was dirty and patched onto the seat.
Then he not only poured her a bowl of dumpling soup to warm her hands, but also attentively carried her dishes and chopsticks, and called the kitchen staff to add more dishes.
So vaguely, under the shadow of the towering building at the front door, in the cold wind, the lights in the restaurant seemed to be much gentler...
Meeting each other is fate, and this fate will never be an isolated accident.
At the same time, in Nan Xingsheng Hutong on West Chang'an Street, in a courtyard that was originally the former residence of Wu Zhengli, a senior official of the Japanese and puppet Zhili government,
A fate that includes two generations is still happening.
In this scene, there are many characters.
In addition to Liu Lishan, the current director of the Political Department of the Municipal Bureau, and his family of five, there are also Xing Zhengyi and his mother.
There are two main points that connect their two families together at this moment.
First, when Xing Zhengyi caught a "pervert" in the "department store", the girl who slapped him was actually Liu Lishan's precious daughter Liu Ying.
The second is Director Liu Lishan, who was also an old subordinate of Xing Zhengyi's father, Xing Xiangsheng, and his closest old comrade during his lifetime.
However, after Xing Xiangsheng's death, Xing Zhengyi's mother completely refused all help from her husband's colleagues and friends because of her strong nature.
At the same time, it coincided with a special period. Later, Liu Lishan also encountered a certain impact, and the two talents interrupted their contacts for many years.
But even so, Liu Lishan did not forget his old relationship and always looked after Xing Zhengyi silently behind his back.
In fact, the reason why Xing Zhengyi was selected into a "public school" when he went to the countryside.
Also, when he released Hong Yanwu at Dongzhuang Police Station, he was not beaten down by the "bad water boy" Captain Hetian. Instead, he successfully made meritorious service and received an award, all because of Director Liu's care.
Because of this, after Xing Zhengyi and Liu Ying had such a chance encounter, the elders of the two families were extremely happy when they knew the details.
They saw two young people who felt good about each other again, so they got together this New Year's Eve.
But for Xing Zhengyi, the most precious thing about this gathering was not the knowledge that he had such a backer, nor the fact that he and Liu Ying had successfully won the support of their families for their further development.
But through Liu Lishan, I learned in more detail what kind of person a working father is.
It is precisely because the mother, who is a housewife, does not understand and understand all this.
This not only successfully enriched Xing Zhengyi's somewhat vague father image, but also made him feel sincerely proud of having such a capable and heroic father.
The most distinctive characteristic of Liu Lishan's old comrades and superiors is that they are capable experts.
Xing Xiangsheng’s veteran was a veteran of the Northeast Anti-Resistance Alliance. He drank the strongest alcohol and smoked the strongest cigarettes. He once climbed ice and lay in the snow with a second-level disability to track and lay an ambush. His unique skills were enough for ordinary reconnaissance. I have been practicing as a company commander for half my life.
For example, Liu Lishan still remembers that when he first joined the army, he performed an inspection mission in the defense zone under Xing Xiangsheng.
As a result, Xing Xiangsheng said that it would snow whenever it snows, and his ability was almost as good as Zhuge Liang's ability to call upon the wind and rain.
And that night, it was 30 to 40 degrees below zero. Everyone was burning a fire and grinning from the cold. Only Xing Xiangsheng wrapped himself in a big cotton-padded jacket and slept in the field, feeling very peaceful.
I didn’t expect that Xing Xiangsheng’s eyes would become brighter and brighter when he slept until midnight, when all the sentries were feeling sleepy.
Suddenly, there was a "bang" gunshot.
When everyone jumped up in fright, they discovered that Xing Xiangsheng was blowing smoke from the muzzle of his gun.
At this time, someone exclaimed. If you look closely, you will see a leopard standing staggeringly far away in the woods.
The leopard walked stiffly, trembling as if swinging, staggered a few steps, and then fell to the ground.
When someone ran over with a gun, one of the leopard's eye sockets had turned into a black hole and was bleeding, and he died from a shot.
So after this night, Liu Lishan, like everyone else, admired this company commander very much.
And precisely because of his unique skills, even after moving to the city and changing his career, Xing Xiangsheng was still a well-deserved expert in investigating and solving crimes.
Not only did he lead dozens of people to sweep away gangs in the northwest and northeast of the suburbs of Beijing, making great contributions to the security and stability of the capital, but he also had a superhuman record of solving three cases in a row in one day.
But on the other hand, heroes who emerge from the battlefield are often examples of those who are fearless, and it is common for them to get into trouble and fight back.
In military parlance, a person like him is a temperamental person with a sharp temperament, and he also has a strong military ruffian style.
For example, once, a case broke out at the home of a certain senior cadre, and the city bureau immediately sent people to investigate.
Perhaps the investigation took a long time and the steps were trivial, which made the senior cadre very angry, so he called back to the bureau to complain.
Xing Xiangsheng answered the phone. Unexpectedly, the other party kept complaining that the city bureau would not do anything.
Xing Xiangsheng explained a few words, hoping to make the other party understand.
But the other party got even more angry and actually said, "Who are you? Are you still protecting me? Call your director over to answer the phone!"
As a result, Xing Xiangsheng also became angry and fell out on the spot.
"So-and-so, are you a party cadre? You are all working for the revolution. What nonsense are you talking about? So-and-so, I will **** you!"
This sentence made all the policemen nearby turn green with fright. Are you serious about telling the police like this?
But Xing Xiangsheng didn't care at all. He was a master with many bullet holes and scars, but he didn't take it seriously if he offended a leading cadre.
His immediate boss actually didn't care and still reused him.
As the saying goes, there will be a nest of bears. On the other hand, the detection rate of criminal cases in the capital was over 90% at that time, so what kind of cadres are what kind of soldiers?
But the most interesting thing is that the person being scolded doesn’t seem to care.
I guess it’s been a long time since I entered the city and I haven’t used such foul language with anyone, so I don’t know if it’s quite enjoyable.
So, even though Xing Xiangsheng is a scumbag and has no education, how can such a person not be valued and trusted by his superiors, and not supported and loved by his subordinates?
I am just jealous of talents. When the artillery tower was raised, Xing Xiangsheng was shot through the head by a Japanese machine gun, although he was lucky enough to survive.
But many years later, he eventually died of a cerebral hemorrhage caused by this old injury.
What's more, if this old injury hadn't caused headaches, he wouldn't have drank a pound of "Sweet Potato Burn" every day.
As a result, all the salary was spent on wine, and the family didn’t save any money...
At this point Liu Lishan couldn't help but let out a long sigh with nostalgia and emotion.
After a moment, he said, "Justice, I have been paying attention to your situation in the past few years. I am very pleased that you are doing a good job, principled, capable, serious and responsible, and hardworking. You are what we need most. Young cadre. You are truly your father’s son.”
Just when Xing Zhengyi was feeling encouraged, Liu Lishan revealed another piece of good news.
"I can also tell you that your director is now within the scope of the 'three types of people', and he will not create resistance for you in the future. Do you have the confidence to manage Dongzhuang Pipeline well? ? I will give you two years, and if you have proven results after becoming the director, I will transfer you to the branch office. Then you can consider joining the Political Department or the Political Security Department. ”
Unexpectedly, just when Liu Lishan showed off the paved golden avenue with great expectation, and the Liu family looked at Xing Zhengyi with expectation, he himself hesitated.
Frowning for a long time, he said, "Director Liu, I...I have an unkind request. I...actually don't want to be promoted. I have always wanted to work as a criminal police officer in the Second Division of the Municipal Bureau, even if I am just an ordinary soldier. Can you help me?"
Everyone present could not help but be surprised.
Especially Liu Lishan.
"Are you serious? It's the hardest, most tiring, most stressful, and most responsible place, and you'll often encounter dangers."
Unexpectedly, Xing Zhengyi’s eyes were full of perseverance.
"I'm serious! The crime rate in society is too high now! I want to do something practical! Didn't you just say that I am my father's son!"
