District 9

In the alley.

Qin Yu pursed his arms, frowned at the old cat and asked, "Is Qi Lin at your place?"

"Yes." Old Cat nodded: "He was shot. I just found a doctor to look at him."

"What happened to him?" Qin Yu asked.

After thinking about it for a long time, Old Mao explained the situation he knew to Qin Yu in detail.

After hearing this, Qin Yu lowered his head and turned around in a circle before asking: "The matter is so big, do you think you can hide him?"

The old cat was startled when he heard the sound.

"I don't think you can hide it. No matter what the reason is, Yuan Ke will continue to mess with him." Qin Yu lowered his head and added.

Lao Mao lowered his head and took out his electronic cigarette, took a long sip and said, "I'm looking for you so urgently because I want to ask you to do something for Qi Lin."

Qin Yu was slightly startled: "Just tell me."

"I want to find a way to keep Qi Lin and send him, his mother, and his little sister away from Songjiang. Please help me contact some friends outside the planned area and arrange a place for them to stay." Old Mao said very straightforwardly. Said: "Whether he can go out depends on his fate, but I still have to do what needs to be done."

Qin Yu stared at the old cat and responded with the same straightforward words: "I don't think my relationship with Qi Lin has reached this point."

The old cat was stunned when he heard the sound.

"...This is not a simple case of killing someone with a gun. You must also know how many conflicts of interest and hidden reasons are behind it. I helped him and got into trouble. So if something happens to me, who can help me? Qin Yu asked very calmly.

The old cat took a puff of cigarette again.

"Old Mao, I was able to come to Songjiang to buy a residence and a job. It took me several years of hard work in the area to be planned. You have Director Li above you, but I don't." Qin Yu looked at Old Mao candidly. : "Sorry, I can't help with this matter."

Old Mao raised his head and looked at Qin Yu, suddenly smiled and said: "I know you are very ambitious and have many ideas, so I can understand your choice."

Qin Yu said nothing.

"Xiao Yu, do you know why Qi Lin came to this point?" the old cat asked softly.

Qin Yu was stunned.

"Actually, you are quite similar to him. You usually know what you want. You are calm and purposeful in everything you do. You think you can always distinguish the pros and cons of things at critical moments. It's just that you two are too strong. The other one is too soft, it just looks like there is some contrast." Old Mao smoked the e-cigarette and said with a smile: "But I want to tell you, if this person lives too calmly and has no temperament, he may not necessarily succeed in whatever he does. Qi Lin is a living example. What's more, if he doesn't even have a close friend in life, I don't believe how far he can go... I came to you today because I treat you as a buddy and think we are friends. So I didn’t see anyone outside...but I’m sorry, I was rash.”

Qin Yu frowned and said nothing.

"I will figure things out myself. You can go back." The old cat turned and left.

Qin Yu put his hands in his sleeves, looked at the old cat's back, and suddenly shouted: "You know in your heart that Director Li has been hiding from selling drugs, and it will be easy for you to get involved if you get involved."

The old cat didn't even turn his head when he heard the sound, and strode to the street and answered: "A tiger is so bad, he still knows how to protect his friends at a critical moment, how can my old cat be worse than him? I am unbreakable. I haven’t considered it, but I will definitely protect Qi Lin.”

After saying that, the old cat got in the car and left.

…

Before Qi Lin's accident, the old cat scolded him from time to time as if he were a son. From an outsider's point of view, Qi Lin seemed not to have an equal relationship with him at all, but just a lick beside the old cat. Just a dog. But when something happened to Qi Lin, all the acquaintances who could hide away also shunned. The one who finally gritted his teeth and wanted to help Qi Lin was the old cat who usually looked down on him.

Some disdain is true.

But friendship is also real.

Lao Mao is such a person. No matter how good you are, I may not be able to get along with you, but as long as I treat you as a friend, if you are in trouble, I will definitely reach out.

On the way back to the dormitory, Qin Yu lowered his head, feeling a little complicated. He was recalling the old cat's words, and his heart was somewhat touched.

When he was in the planning area, Qin Yu basically didn't trust anyone because he had seen too many bad sides of human nature. There are many beasts who would sell their wives and children just for a bite to eat and a job, so he saw more of them, and gradually his heart grew cold. This is due to people's sense of self-protection. Qin Yu may not even realize that although he is mentally strong now, he has somewhat lost the warmth of human nature.

But now Lao Mao's words still echoed in Qin Yu's mind. For the first time, he doubted himself. Was his excessive calmness and purposeful behavior correct? Can the style of doing things in the area to be planned also be adopted in the Ninth District?

The road of life is so long and lonely, and can I really walk the entire journey alone?

Lao Mao's status and connections within the superintendent were obviously stronger than his own, and yet he dared to protect Qilin. So Qin Yu, the evil ghost waiting to come to the planning area, was overly worried about his small status. Didn't it seem that he Is the layout too small?

The relationship between Qi Lin and Qin Yu definitely did not reach the level of a life-and-death friendship, but how did other people's life-and-death friendship come about?

Qin Yu stopped as he thought about it, and the shadow of the old cat suddenly flashed in his mind.

He can scold Qi Lin every day. On the surface, he is cynical and unreliable, but at critical moments, he really dares to go out of his way to save his friends. So, is a person like him worthy of being friends with him?

Qin Yu hesitated and hesitated, but finally took out his mobile phone.

"Damn it, no matter how smart a person is, he can always be infected by a fool..." Qin Yu sighed and immediately dialed a number.

Tens of seconds later, the call came through: "Hello?"

"Let's talk about selling drugs." Qin Yu turned around and left the back door of the unit, and quickened his pace to the other side of the road.

…

On the second floor of a separate building on Century Avenue.

Yuan Ke locked the door, stood at the window with his mobile phone and said, "Qi Lin doesn't have many friends, he's just an old cat."

"The relationship between Lao Mao and Director Li..." the man on the phone said with a slight frown on his face: "It's not easy for me to check."

"You are responsible for digging out where Qi Lin is, and I will handle the above matters." Yuan Ke shouted with red eyes: "He must be gone, and we must get the channels."

"Okay, I understand."

…

Inside a warehouse on Fuyuan Road.

Just as the doctor was about to leave after cleaning Qi Lin's wounds, Lao Mao tied him up with a gun: "You can't leave for now. When my friend gets out, I will let you go. I won't give you any money."

"Why do you have no credibility?" The doctor yelled: "Rude, you are too rude!"

"Stop it, I'm in a hurry. I'm going to fuck you." The old cat dragged the doctor away without any reason and locked him in the house. Then he turned to his friend who was helping him and said, "Can you think of a way to send Qi Lin out?"

"... He killed Yuan Hua's brother-in-law... Everything is going crazy outside. It's too difficult to send him away." The friend said with a very ugly face: "You know how capable I am."

Old Mao scratched his head: "You said you can find someone from the garrison, can you do it?"

"It's hard to say." The friend shook his head.

On the shabby wooden bed, Qi Lin coughed violently and shouted: "Leave me alone... Just send my mother and little sister away."

"Shut up!" the old cat cursed in frustration.

…

On the second floor of a detached building on Century Avenue.

The third child limped downstairs and shouted to the more than 20 people standing in the room: "Brother has spoken, let me put aside all the work in hand, and get rid of all our people. We must do it within 12 hours." Dig out for me where Qi Lin is!"
