Chapter 147 0081.The Value of Life
"Squat down! Squat down with your head in your hands and throw away the weapon."
Wang Hao angrily aimed his gun at the two panicked men. If it weren't for the bloody facts before his eyes, he couldn't believe it. In broad daylight, these two people viciously killed a person for a pound of rice.
Zhuang Guoguang, who was stabbed twice, was on the verge of death. He looked at Wang Hao with a pleading look on his face, pointed at a door in the alley, and opened and closed his mouth without making any sound.
A stream of blood flowed from his mouth, and the man fell down.
"Zhuang Guoguang! Zhuang Guoguang!"
"Sir, we don't dare! We won't dare anymore!"
The two assailants were pointed at guns and huddled on the ground with their heads in their hands, begging for mercy.
Wang Hao gritted his teeth and his finger on the trigger trembled. Chu Chengdong on the side had a gloomy face, looking at the two of them with murderous intent.
"ah!"
Wang Hao roared angrily, picked up the butt of his gun, and struck the two men hard. There was a moment when he really had murderous intentions.
But in the end, his professional ethics as a police officer allowed him to hold on to the last bottom line.
Screams came from the mouths of the two men. Suddenly, a man took advantage of Wang Hao's loss of composure and secretly touched the sharp knife dropped on the ground in the palm of his hand.
Bang~
There was a gunshot, and the sharp knife fell to the ground along the palm of his hand. The man's eyes widened and he slowly fell down, and a black round hole appeared on his forehead.
Wang Hao mechanically froze in place. He looked at Chu Chengdong, who was holding a pistol, and at the man who had been killed.
"Sir! It's none of my business! Please let me go, it's him! He's the one who wants to kill someone. Please"
"Go away! Go away!!"
Wang Hao yelled the last word with all his strength, and then he seemed to have drained all his strength and slowly slid down against the wall of the alley.
"Why? Why is this?"
Wang Hao murmured to himself that when he was in prison, he looked forward to getting out of there and integrating into a normal society.
When he heard about the situation in Linzhou City from Hou Ting for the first time, he believed that the missing persons and deaths mentioned by him were due to the inaction of the relevant departments.
As long as it is managed well, a good public security environment can definitely be created.
But now he is confused. The cruelty of the two murderers and Zhuang Guoguang's last plea was just because of a pound of rice.
does it worth?
Chu Chengdong slowly walked into the alley, picked up the spilled rice from the ground and said in a deep voice:
"Why? Of course you don't know why. During this period of time, I traveled all over the major areas of Linzhou City, and I saw burning, killing and looting every day.
When we were in prison, although the food was not very good, we were not hungry either. Later, as the president, we never had to worry about food. We had what others could eat, and we had what others could not.
The reason why you can't understand is because you have never felt hungry. Those extremely hungry people can do it, let alone murder, even cannibalism!
Captain Wang, put away your pre-apocalyptic standards of measurement. Just like what the president said that day, this is the end of the world! "
After saying this, Chu Chengdong turned around and walked out of the alley regardless of whether the other party could accept it.
After a long time, Wang Hao slowly stood up, turned around, came to a door, and knocked gently.
Not long after, a pale-faced and thin woman came out of the house and quietly observed the crack in the door.
Seeing a stranger standing outside the door, she immediately became alert.
"Mom, is dad back?"
"Shh~"
The woman nervously made a silent gesture toward her daughter who was following her, but unexpectedly, people outside had already heard her.
"I know you are inside, please don't be afraid. I am Zhuang Guoguang's friend."
The woman held her daughter tightly in her arms. She didn't know whether what the other party said was true or false. She just prayed that her husband would come back soon.
"I have some unfortunate news to tell you. Mr. Zhuang has passed away."
Squeak~
The woman hiding in the yard heard the news and could no longer restrain herself. She opened the door suddenly and looked directly at Wang Hao.
"sorry"
"Where is he?" The woman asked with red eyes, holding herself up.
Wang Hao silently opened the door and looked at the two corpses lying in the alley.
"Dad! Ooooh daddy!"
The woman staggered and almost moved in front of the body.
Seeing that familiar face, she couldn't help but fainted.
Wang Hao supported the woman with a quick step. Looking at the crying little girl, he made a difficult decision.
"Have you thought about it? Do you really want to raise this mother and daughter?" Zhang Zhigang looked at Wang Hao seriously.
"Yes, I will explain it to the president. The food will be deducted from my daily supply."
Looking at Wang Hao with a firm look on his face, Zhang Zhigang patted him on the shoulder, shook his head and left:
"well!"
As soon as Zhang Zhigang left, Zhao Xiaona came over holding Zhuang Guoguang's hand.
"Xiao Na me"
"I know, you don't have to worry about me. I like this little girl very much, and she will be mine from now on. As for that woman, you are not allowed to have any excessive behavior with her."
Looking at Zhao Xiaona's threatening eyes, Wang Hao smiled. He gently grabbed her shoulders and said softly:
"Xiao Na, it's great to have you."
The recruitment of workers in the slums was still going on, but Chen Chong came to the brick factory.
Before approaching the door, I saw several well-dressed men and women pointing inside.
"Brother Su, this place is too dirty. You promised to build a villa for others."
The girl with yellow hair made a coquettish sound.
"Haha!" The short-haired man slapped the woman on the butt in an unobtrusive manner, causing the woman to gasp coquettishly. "Don't worry, my dear, the place here is so big. Not to mention one villa, even three can be built. "
At this time, Gu Qingfang came out with a few workers, holding a paper contract in her hand.
"Mr. Su, since there is no problem, let's sign the contract."
The short-haired man did not accept the contract from Gu Qingfang, but looked at her figure with greedy eyes:
"Miss Gu, don't be anxious. Isn't there a handover ceremony when we sign the contract? Or it would be nice to have a dance at my place!"
Gu Qingfang suppressed the disgust in her heart and said calmly: "Mr. Su, I am anxiously waiting for this money now to pay for my workers. I don't need any ceremonies or dances."
"Eh? How can that be possible? How about this? As long as Miss Gu agrees to attend my dance, I will give you 10% more of the price. How about that?"
Gu Qingfang hesitated. With 10%, she could give the workers more breakup pay.
"I"
"If she doesn't go, the brick factory won't be sold."
