Criminal Psychology

Chapter 285 Lu Xu

The sky is bright tonight, one of the rare sunny days in late summer.

Many people have already fallen asleep with their worries, and some people think that this is just an ordinary day as usual.

Lu Xu drank some wine as usual and was clearing the tables and chairs of the night snack shop.

Of course, his so-called usual life is only the life in the past month.

After all, he had done very bad things in the past. He was able to exchange for a prosecution and defense agreement because he was a tainted witness. He used community service instead of going to prison, worked during the day and helped out at the night snack shop at night, and lived a new life.

It was almost four o'clock in the morning, and the noisy stalls were about to disperse, so there was only the last table of customers in the store.

However, the guests at that table did not intend to leave early.

To be honest, although he spent most of his time dealing with the rich second generation or powerful people, he has also seen a lot of this kind of bottom.Order a plate of peanuts and a portion of cucumber and order a bottle of Red Star Erguotou, and you can stay in the store until five in the morning, without feeling guilty at all.

He wiped down most of the tables, turned over the chairs, swept and mopped the floor, and the two people at that table hadn't stopped chatting.

"Old Zhang, what you said is reasonable. Our family has distant relatives who work in the police station, so they said that there is a big move by the government behind this. Let me tell you..."

Lu Xu really didn't mean to listen to gossip, but the other party's voice was too loud, and every word was desperately drilled into his ears, and he couldn't stop it.

"Old Pei, I know you have a lot of friends, and if you don't tell the inside story, you don't treat your brother as your own!"

"Hey, this is all the inside story that is not allowed to be told. Those four people are actually ordinary people. Only those who offended them were brought in. Why don't you see, during the live broadcast, there was no sound at all?"

The middle-aged man held up the small wine cup, half-closed his eyes, and said mysteriously.

Lu Xu froze his body suddenly.

The person opposite slammed the table and asked drunkenly, "Brother, are you serious?"

"It's absolutely true, how can it be false!" He said, deliberately lowering his voice, pretending to warn, "Don't say it, it's all a matter of losing your head, maybe we..."

When I was talking about this, a dirty rag suddenly fell into the long-empty cucumber bowl, but the soup didn't splash, but the crushed garlic mixed with the dirty gray rag was quite disgusting.

The two men turned their heads at the same time, looking angrily at the fat man who had been cleaning the store.

"I'm sorry, two bosses, my hands were a bit slippery just now."

The fat man wore glasses and his eyes were protruding, like a greasy toad.Although his eyes looked kind and humble, he couldn't hide the dark look of running across the river and lake.

"What do you mean, you want to fight, don't you!" The man put down the small wine cup in his hand with a slam, and rushed forward to roll up his sleeves.

Just then, he heard a beautiful female voice from behind.

"Bosses, I'm really sorry, calm down..."

Lu Xu also turned around, the proprietress had just come down from the second floor in her pajamas, she was leaning on the pillar with her arms folded.

As a man, seeing this situation, it is obvious that he wants to be overwhelmed.

Sure enough, the people at the drinking table were about to go up and start their hands, but at this moment, Lu Xu's proprietress spoke up, and she said, "My shop is not very lucky."

The two drunk men stopped immediately.

The proprietress said again: "The last person who drank at my place until five o'clock was hit and killed by a car on the way home." The woman showed a gloomy and true smile, "It's really my bad luck. I made a fuss, saying that my store was unlucky, and that’s why he killed his husband. The Taoist priest opened his eyes and said that because there were Yin soldiers in my shop, the Lord Yin soldiers were not happy when the customers stayed after five o’clock. You see It's already four twenty now...I...I really think about you."

The two middle-aged men were already drunk, most of the lights in the shop were turned off because of closing time, and the outside was pitch black, with nothing but street lights, and now they were facing a vixen-like woman, the atmosphere was indeed gloomy.

Sure enough, the two men glanced at each other, instantly sobered up, dropped the wine cup and ran away without a trace.

Lu Xu looked at the proprietress very dog-leggedly, but only heard the woman say, "The bill will be deducted from your salary." After she finished speaking, the woman was about to go back to sleep with graceful steps.

Those footsteps seemed to knock on Lu Xu's heart. He looked at the woman's ecstasy back, his mouth was dry, but he hesitated to speak.

At this moment, the woman suddenly turned her head and asked him condescendingly, "Tell me, what's going on with you today?"

Sitting under the lamp, Lu Xu started a long and boring narration with the cheapest rice wine in the store.

He has never thought of himself as a good person. After all, according to his resume, he can basically be regarded as a complete social trash, similar to the four trash who are now locked in a small dark room waiting to die.But now he is in a complicated and sad mood, not because of the sadness of things hurting others, but because he feels that fate is really weird.

When he met Lin Chen for the first time, he was beaten badly because he touched Lin Chen. Later, Lin Chen regarded him as a useful dog and led him to investigate the case, although he offended many people in Fengchun. He is powerful, but it also gave him a chance to be a man again. Now, fate has once again connected him with Lin Chen in an impermanent way, and he probably has to thank Lin Chen again.After all, he will become a pile of social trash, all because of Qian Bao.

When Lu Xu said this, he looked at the woman across the small square table.It must be because the stories he told were too boring, and the proprietress just drank on her own and ignored him at all.

He embarrassingly picked up the wine cup in front of him and drank it in one gulp. The hot taste of wine slid down his throat, and he mustered up the courage to continue the story below.

"Don't look at me now that I look like a toad, but I was actually very poor when I was young."

"My father died early, and my mother messed around with men in the village in order to support me. When I was a child, I didn't know the truth that life was not easy, so I thought she was dirty and stupid."

"I am uneducated. People from a family like me have no possibility of relying on schoolbags to make a living. So after graduating from junior high school, I went to a technical secondary school in a big city. It was my mother who forced me to go. She thought that after all, there were relatives. The city helped me to find a good job after graduation. My relative is Qian Bao’s father, my distant cousin. My mother slept with Qian Bao’s father for a week, so my distant cousin agreed to take care of me. "

The more Lu Xu talked, the more he felt drunk, and he couldn't even distinguish reality from the past.

He said: "I didn't know until Fengchun that Qian Bao's father called him a car repairer, but he was actually a car thief. Qian Bao was younger than me, and he was my cousin, but he studied early, so he was already a car thief. I'm in freshman year of high school. Qian Bao is different from his father, he doesn't want to do things like stealing cars with high risk and low reward. All the time it's been 'financial'."

He laughed, which seemed to be ridiculed, but also seemed to admire, "A student in the first year of high school knew how to cooperate with the owner of a video game store and invest in slot machines. I have to take care of my younger brother, so I have been helping him to watch the scene, and he gave me some money. I was poor since I was a child, and that money is astronomical for me. I dare not go west. I thought I would just live like this for the rest of my life, and the best situation would be to own a small game hall of my own and get a daughter-in-law, until one day..."

When Lu Xu said this, the woman opposite him still didn't move at all, her black hair shone lustrously under the light, Lu Xu didn't know why he became so chatty and ink-stained, it was so boring, so he suddenly I don't want to go on.

Just when he was about to get up, the woman smashed the table with a wine cup, and called him in a drawn-out tone: "Go on, I don't like listening to stories, I've heard half of them."

Lu Xu stood by the table.

He could never forget that day, although it was no big deal compared to what he did later, but after all, all the first times are still fresh in people's memory.

It was the weekend, and as usual, he had to get up earlier than usual to show his cousin.But when it was time for breakfast, Qian Bao pushed the door in and bought him a delicious beef roll.Although he refused, he really hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and he didn't even have the brains to wonder if there was any conspiracy behind a simple burrito.Just when he was wolfing down the burrito and pretending to be reserved, he heard Qian Bao told him that he didn't need to go to the small game hall to watch the scene.

He swallowed the beef half a beat slower.

Qian Bao said: "A new machine arrived today. It's a smuggled product. Brother, go and pick it up for me. I'll give you 50 yuan."

To this day, he can clearly recall every change in Qian Bao's expression and tone when he spoke, but these are all meaningless things.

Then he went to the pier, of course, and it was indeed a new slot machine, but there was something else hidden in the slot machine.

What happened afterwards was a vague nightmare of life, which continues to this day.

The police came, broke open the slot machine, and found bags of small colored pills inside. He was very familiar with these things, and Qian Bao often asked him to deliver them before.But it wasn't until his interrogation that he realized it wasn't really kiss mints, but ecstasy.

Of course, he also tried to give money to Bao, but only then did he know that Qian Bao had been in contact with the other party in his name all along, and even connected to the account for receiving the stolen money, all of which were secretly done in his name, and even more so. What's more, the delivery person is also him, and there are all personal and material evidence, so the police will not believe it if they bite at will.

He hadn't seen Qian Bao since the day of his accident, but his mother came to the police station to see him, and wanted to save him by sleeping with the police, it's okay to be ashamed.

This was what he thought at the time, shame, frustration, pain, resentment, these extremely strong emotions completely changed a 17-year-old boy.

He was expelled from school and went to jail.

The seniors in the prison analyzed it for him. Qian Bao probably got wind of it, so he was sent to pick up the goods. To put it bluntly, he was the fish that Qian Bao sent to the police fishing rod.

But this kind of thing is completely unimportant, and he knows that he will never go back.

The next thing is to be released from prison, then to prison, then to prison, and then to prison, his mother also contracted a venereal disease and died in the middle. He has been with the seniors he knew in prison for many years, trying to climb up from the gutter step by step, After all, the dark world is also a strictly hierarchical place.

In the end, he became a chicken head and had many girls under his command. He often beat those girls and boys, doing the same thing as what Qian Bao had done to him before.

However, he never saw Qian Bao again, and he was completely unaware of Qian Bao's arrest and imprisonment.

If he hadn't seen the live video on TV yesterday, he would have been unable to connect his cousin, who was always laughing and playing tricks, with the black, fat and gloomy middle-aged man on TV.

But now, Feng Shui is turning, and he even has a precious vote in his hand that can kill Qian Bao.

When Lu Xu said this, for some reason, he looked down at his hands. He felt that this matter should not be difficult at all. How many people can't wait for such a happy opportunity in their lifetime.And the reason why he hasn't voted so far is because he has to bathe and change clothes, and piously send Qian Bao to the guillotine, after all, it's always been shown on TV.

When he said this, a low and dull voice came from behind.

"Oh..." His female boss stood up from the chair and walked towards the stairs unsteadily, saying as she walked, "Turn left 300 meters from the door and there is a polling place in the square. Go there."
