Trafford’s Trading Club

years ago.

In the housekeeping department of the hotel, a group of young girls were congratulating the girl who had just been promoted to head waiter.

The office was very happy, with all kinds of congratulations.

But she quietly walked to the deputy manager's office. When she knocked on the door and came in, she looked at the assistant manager who usually took good care of her, and wanted to say something.

The deputy manager is in charge of personnel promotion... Of course, it is a relatively low-level position. As for management and above, the deputy manager has nothing to do.

But the deputy manager seemed to know the reason why the girl knocked on the door and came in, so the deputy manager said apologetically: "Zhao Ru, don't be discouraged, there will be a chance next time."

"No...didn't you agree?" The girl lowered her head, and her lowered hands had unconsciously grasped the corners of her clothes.

"Oh, actually I want to mention you too." The deputy manager shook his head.

The girl in front of me is a very hard-working type, and she is very responsible and does her job well.

"That……"

"The company has regulations, but your academic qualifications are not enough." The deputy manager shook his head and said: "You meet all other conditions, but this one..."

"She's not as good at work as me, and she doesn't have as much experience as me. Is it just because of a diploma?"

The deputy manager shook his head and sighed: "Some of the company's rules are indeed rather rigid... However, you have been working for many years, why don't you choose to add value to yourself? If you just study in an adult college, as long as you have the will, you still have Opportunity... Do you think so? The hotel plans to expand the team of the housekeeping department in the second half of the year. Then I will propose another deputy position..."

But before the manager finished speaking, the girl in front of him shook her head and said expressionlessly: No need.

In the girl's mind, even if the team is really expanded in the second half of the year, even if a new deputy position is added, it will not fall on her.

She has worked in this hotel for more than a year. She has been working in the hard-working position of the housekeeping department for the longest time in the entire department. She has experienced the resignation of the foreman twice... but she has not been able to stop it. superior.

Value added?

She wanted to do it too, but the conditions didn't allow it... for such a meager salary.

She had never studied technology and had already started working after graduating from high school. From two to three thousand yuan a month at the beginning, she only found a job worth three to four thousand yuan a month.

For college students, the difficulty of finding a job seems to be an enduring problem... For someone like her who has just graduated from high school, it is only more difficult.

Her colleagues were still in the office celebrating with everyone because they had just been promoted... but she hid alone in the back stairs, squatting by herself. This was not the first time anyway.

And this company is not the first.

She looked at the text messages on her phone silently.

My family has to send money back again.

…

…

Zhao Ru had a dream.

She hadn't had a dream for a long time, and she dreamed about things she didn't want to think of. This sudden dream made her wake up earlier than usual.

Why do you still have this kind of dream?

It shouldn't be.

This made her unable to calm down even when she woke up, but she soon calmed down.

Because she habitually reached out to hold the crystal pendant on her body, she could always calm down since having it.

…

Also because she woke up early, Zhao Ru also saw Uncle Mai tidying up his grandson.

Uncle Mai is sending Mai Xiaojun to school.

"Sister Xiaoru!"

When Mai Xiaojun saw it at this time, he smiled and shouted.

Uncle Mai also smiled kindly and said, "Girl, you woke up so early today!"

Zhao Ru nodded and then retreated into his 'house'.

Uncle Mai hesitated for a moment before he poked his head in and said softly: "Xiao Ru, it's not peaceful outside. If nothing is wrong, don't run out."

He seemed to be reminding him of something.

Zhao Ru looked at Uncle Mai without saying anything. After a while, she nodded gently.

Uncle Mai waved his hand and asked his grandson to go out of the alley and wait for him, and then sat down. The old man took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

He suddenly said: "Some of the people here don't even have names, and they can't chat with others. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

The old man thought for a while and then said calmly: "Because there is no place for us outside, including here. In fact, there is no place for us. But why are we here? Because we all want a place to stay."

Zhao Ru couldn't say anything.

The old man patted the back of her hand gently, then stood up with his legs up, bending down and said: "It doesn't matter how long you want to stay here. When you want to leave, then leave."

The old man is going to send his grandson to school. For the old man, this may be the most important thing every day.

Zhao Ru stayed alone in this 'house'. After half an hour, she put on the hood of her clothes, lowered her head and left from the other side of the alley.

She didn't know that behind her, there was a wisp of black smoke that ordinary people couldn't see, following her.

…

…

Police officer Ma Da felt like he was going to explode...

Of course, it's not because the minesweeper was destroyed again, but because the fugitive has been running away for a whole week and still finds nothing!

"Could this person still be invisible?"

At this time, the door to Sir Ma's office opened, and Lin Feng walked in directly holding a document.

Ma Houde asked immediately: "Is there any news?"

Lin Feng shook his head and continued: "Ma private, we haven't found him yet. But we did find Zhao Ru's family."

"Talk about it."

Lin Feng opened the file and said: "Zhao Ru's parents are still alive and she has a younger brother. But they all live in other provinces. Her parents are both farmers. As for her younger brother who did not graduate from a junior college, it seems that he was persuaded by the school because of fighting and causing trouble. She quit. According to her parents, Zhao Ru went out to work after graduating from high school. At the beginning, she would regularly send money to her family to help support her. But then she came home during the Chinese New Year and had a conflict with her family, and she never had any more Got in touch."

"The relationship with her family is not good..." Mahoude nodded, but frowned and said, "Do you know why she has conflicts with her family?"

Lin Feng shrugged and said: "Her father asked about the call, but the other party hung up on me directly. But I didn't go into details about Zhao Ru. I just said that she was temporarily missing."

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "But her father's reaction was a bit dull, that's all."

"oh?"

"Oh."

Ma Houde rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Have you asked Zhao Ru about the school she went to before? What is she like?"

Lin Feng said: "I also called and asked. According to her former class teacher, Zhao Ru's academic performance was very good and she was a good person. She seemed to have been admitted to a good university back then, but I don't know why she didn't go there later. Instead of studying, she chose to work part-time. When the teacher said this, she was still very sorry. She said that her family had failed her, and those who should not have been allowed to go to school were not allowed to go to school, and those who should not have been allowed to go to school were admitted instead. "

Just when Lin Feng said this, another police officer hurriedly walked in and said: "Mr. Ma, a student in the cram school just called. She was very anxious. She said she had received threats. Believe it!"

"Where is the person? Where is he?" Ma Houde asked directly without caring about the documents in Lin Feng's hand.

"The student said that we can only talk in private. She doesn't want too many people, especially her parents, to know about this matter. She hopes that we can help her."

"Okay, I'll be there right away." Mahoude nodded.

As soon as he walked out of the door of the office, he bumped into Wang Yuechuan... Ma Zir looked at this guy and felt that he was like a police dog. He seemed to have smelled something, so he walked out of the conference room opposite.

Sure enough, before Ma Private had time to speak, Wang Yuechuan said directly: "I heard what you said, Officer Ma, let me accompany you there."

Ma Houde thought for a while and then agreed, and the two of them, together with Lin Feng, left the situation.

…

…

Inside the prison, a man with a tiger tattoo on his arm was interviewing Fatty Zhang.

"Boss! Don't you have enough money to find me in such a hurry?" The strong man asked very directly at this time.

"Idiot!" Fatty Zhang rolled his eyes, "I worked so hard to ask someone to send you a text message asking you to come to see me. Is it just because of a small thing like money? Although the things here are dark, they are not enough! "

The strong man could only scratch his head and said, "What is that?"

Fatty Zhang came closer and whispered, "Listen carefully. If you miss a word, I won't let you go!"

The strong man patted his chest and said, "Boss, your business is my business! If you hadn't taken me with you back then, I would still be stealing manhole covers on the street!"

Fatty Zhang nodded and said seriously: "Listen, Qiangzi, you first go to see a man named Zhou Xiaopeng. He lives here... After you see him, ask him to take you to find a woman, and then, you Bring this woman here!"

The strong man... Qiangzi scratched his head, "Hey, boss, among the chicken heads we know, is there anyone named Zhou Xiaopeng? Isn't that right? Haven't the couple's rooms not been opened yet this month? Boss, you can't bear it so quickly. Are you staying?"

"Qiangzi, do you know what I want to do now?"

"What are you doing?"

"I'll beat you to death!!" (To be continued.) 8
