"Ali, is there anyone else in your family?"
"No, grandma got sick and passed away last year, so I agreed to be an undercover agent."
"My condolences. Find a wife and have a baby soon. Life goes by very quickly."
Li Qing educated Ali with a vicissitude of tone.
"And you?"
"Me? I was too steady and tired in my previous life. I just want to live a more relaxed life in this life."
Li Qing's half-truth reply.
"A lifetime ago, you didn't come from the mainland? Do you still believe this?"
"The end of science is theology, haven't you heard, kid?"
By this time the bar was starting to fill up and the music was starting to get louder.
"Ali, come with me for a walk. I haven't had a good look at Hong Kong Island since I arrived."
Li Qing took Ali out of the bar.
Temple Street, Tsim Sha Tsui, and Causeway Bay can all be visited in a few hours.
"Ali, don't take your status so seriously. The most important thing is to be happy."
"..." Ali [happy? 】
"If you can't be happy, just have a clear conscience. Okay, boss, my education is limited and I don't know how to comfort people. Go back and take a shower and get some sleep."
"Meet me at the bar where my cousin is watching the show at ten o'clock tomorrow, and we can do things together."
After saying that, Li Qing hailed a taxi and returned to Liangkun's house.
······
When Li Qing returned home, his aunt had already prepared dinner, but before the two bad guys came back, his aunt had already finished eating.
When her aunt saw Li Qing entering the house, she warmed it up again and gave it to Li Qing as a midnight snack.
Another night of meditation, and my physical fitness has become stronger again.
When I got up in the morning, my aunt had already prepared breakfast.
Li Qing had breakfast with his aunt.
"Ah Qing, did you find a job yesterday?" Auntie asked Li Qing with concern.
"I haven't found it yet, aunt. Yesterday I was just getting familiar with the environment on Hong Kong Island with my cousin. After all, I just came here."
Li Qing said while eating.
"From now on, I'd better stay away from that bad guy A Kun. He'll start fooling around in just one day, which makes me nervous every day."
At this time, my aunt did not approve of Liangkun joining the club.
"A few years ago, Akun's father passed away, so I had to make money to support the family. In the morning, Akun had to go to work before he got up. When he came back from work, he fell asleep. Not caring enough made him behave like this. Don't do that. Learn from him." My aunt was full of guilt when she said this.
"I understand, aunt, I will help you keep an eye on your cousin. By the way, aunt, what kind of job are you doing now? Is it very hard?"
It's been two days since Li Qing arrived, and he still doesn't know what his aunt does for a living.
"It's quite easy to keep accounts at the market. It's not hard. Now I don't need to support Akun. I earn enough to cover my expenses. I can also play mahjong occasionally." My aunt said calmly.
This is the life of ordinary people in Hong Kong Island. The class has begun to show signs of solidification. Most people do not have super abilities and can only live on the line of food and clothing.
"Aqing, you eat slowly. Auntie has gone to work. Just put the dishes and chopsticks in the sink after you have finished eating. I will come back to clean up in the evening."
After chatting casually for a while, my aunt got up and went out with her satchel.
Li Qing did not listen to his aunt this time. He cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks for the two of them to eat before going out to find Ali.
······
Li Qing took a walk to the bar.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the bar, Ali was already waiting there.
"Have you had breakfast?" Li Qing asked.
"have eaten."
"That's good. Are you familiar with this address?" Li Qing handed Ali the note that Liangkun gave him yesterday.
"Well, over there in Kwun Tong, shall we set off now?"
Ali looked at the note and handed it back to Li Qing.
"Go early and come back early. Leave now."
After confirming, the two took a taxi and set off to their destination.
"Ali, how are you going to use yesterday's money?"
Li Qing didn't know what Ali would do with the money, or whether he would turn around and hand it over.
Although Li Qing can read minds, that thing is used to extract confessions, and it will leave a serious psychological shadow on the person involved.
There is no need to do that to your first younger brother.
"I used it to pay off the debt. My grandma was sick before and owed a lot of money. After paying it off, there are still several thousand yuan left." Ali whispered.
Then he said it sincerely. "Thank you, boss. Now I am debt-free."
"Pujie, didn't you work as an undercover agent before? Your boss didn't give you a salary? Akun didn't give you pocket money? Why are you still like this with double salary?"
Li Qing felt very surprised. His younger brother seemed to have had a rough time before.
Hearing Li Qing's question, Ali smiled bitterly.
"Boss, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I worked as an undercover agent before, and I knew I would have to go back to work as a police officer sooner or later. How dare I collect money randomly? Every time I collect money, I have to file a report. I am not asked to make a fortune by being an undercover agent. of."
"Since I started working undercover, apart from collecting a few hundred yuan from Akun a few times at the beginning, I will not take it again if I can. As for what the police station gave me, it was even less. After all, my file is not there, so there is no way for others to give it away. Let’s pay someone else’s salary. It’s just a few hundred yuan for each meeting with the boss.”
Fortunately, Ali was alone. He usually followed Akun to make a living, but whenever he had a family, he would always go hungry.
"You are really principled. You are an outstanding police officer, but your life is worse than that of Young and Dangerous."
Li Qing really looked up to Ali, and at the same time he looked up to himself. He was dragging such a principled police officer down. Was he better than him?
"Follow the boss well. You have to look forward as a person, and you will get better and better."
Li Qing drank a sip of chicken soup for the soul.
······
"Boss, we're here, Chenghui is thirty dollars." The taxi driver turned to the two people and said.
Li Qing took the initiative to give money and took Ali out of the car. His younger brother's financial situation was not as good as his own.
What comes into view is an industrial building. Hong Kong Island is a place where land is at a premium. Many factories are located in the building. If you rent one or two floors, you can produce.
"Let's go up and have a look." Li Qing said to Ali.
The two went up the stairs to the floor where the address was written.
"Come on, why are there so many people?" As soon as he arrived at the target floor, he saw a dense crowd of workers blocking the door of the company.
Li Qing couldn't help but said something.
"Boss, please do me a favor and give me your salary. My family also needs money to start a business." Some begged.
"If you don't get paid today, don't even think about going out." There is a threat.
"What kind of boss can you be if you don't have money?" someone else said mockingly.
Various voices came one after another.
Li Qing and Ali squeezed through the crowd and finally came to the front.
I saw a middle-aged man with red eyes standing opposite everyone, still trying his best to comfort the crowd.
"It's useless for you to force me like this. Why don't you start working hard, wait for the goods to be produced and sold, and I will send everyone's money to you as soon as possible."
"How long will it take to wait? Who knows if it can be produced? Even if it is produced, who knows if it can be sold? Do you want us all to drink the northwest wind and wait for you?"
