The case was handled quickly, and the thief confessed, saying that the few mobile phones he stole tonight were enough to keep him in jail for half a year. It is worth mentioning that this thief is not a local, but a person from other places.
After all, thieves don't give up easily. They are all habitual thieves, and Wang Yan confirmed that this thief is quite skilled. Such a wandering player must have had trouble before. If the thief hadn't withstood the interrogation and confessed to the previous case, and the amount involved had increased, he would have basically had to wait two or three years.
After cooperating with the police to register, Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou walked out of the police station not far from the crime scene.
When he came out, Xu Hongdou let out a sigh of relief: "I'm still a little confused now. Everything happened too fast."
Wang Yan shook his head in a funny way: "Why, the thief has to tell you first when he steals something? You are ready, I will start stealing..."
Seeing him imitating the thief's wretched behavior, Xu Hongdou rolled his eyes: "You just didn't react. We were still talking, and you suddenly turned around and knocked the thief down, stepping on your feet. You can also poke people with bamboo sticks. The other tourists reacted quickly. They formed a circle around us in an instant. They picked up their mobile phones and took pictures. Now that I think about the mobile phones in that circle, I feel goosebumps all over. Pimples, so scary.”
It's quite a contrast for a player who has endured the spotlight of the media in the real world to say something like this. However, Wang Yan could distinguish clearly and could see clearly. There was some contrast, but it didn't matter.
But it should be said that there were indeed more people in front of them. Looking around, there were no faces at all. They were all mobile phones blocked in front of their faces. There were no real people behind, either holding selfie sticks or holding their mobile phones high, but the scene was still quite big. At that time, the thief silently took off his hat and put it on his face, trying to save some face...
The same was true. Xu Hongdou, who was in the center and had never had such an experience, was momentarily panicked and couldn't speak. Because she didn't know if any of her sentences were intercepted and posted online, which would be bad. So she stood silently behind Wang Yan, watching Wang Yan step on the thief coolly, eating various skewers on his lips, responding to the surrounding audience with a smile, and controlling the scene.
But when it comes to being surrounded by people for filming, you have to watch Xiao Bangzi’s death flash. That is the real big scene, and it can blind your eyes...
"I just haven't experienced it before. This time, you will be more relaxed next time."
"I don't want it to happen again." Xu Hongdou sighed, looked at Wang Yan who was adjusting the camera parameters next to him, and asked, "How did you realize that the thief was behind us? Also, what was your reaction at that time? It was too fast, and the thief was subdued in no time. Do you know martial arts?"
"Do you know what's most important about traveling in the world?"
"What?"
"Of course you have too many skills to overwhelm yourself." Wang Yan raised the camera and took a picture of Xu Hongdou's ignorant and curious look. He looked at the photos and talked, "I have learned some martial arts routines before, and also learned some Sanda, boxing and so on. In addition, I exercise regularly and am strong, so I can't get close to three or five people. Martial arts training is all about seeing and listening in all directions, so it is inevitable to be more alert. It is also because of this hand, give me some confidence, otherwise I will come all the way. , you will always suffer some losses.”
"Oh, that's it. When will you let me see it?"
"It's not a big deal. I'll give you a snack when I go back. I've eaten so much today, so I just need to move around to eat."
"Okay, what to do next? Should we wander around for a while longer, or go back to Yunmiao Village?"
Wang Yan raised his wrist and looked at the time and said, "Come on, it's almost nine o'clock. Only by going to bed early and getting up early can you be healthy and energetic."
"Then go back." Xu Hongdou swung his arms widely and took long strides forward. "If I keep walking like this, I feel like my legs will lose weight."
"Come out to play, just walk more and see more. You still come out to heal, it's better not to be too idle. Live a fulfilling life every day. As time goes by, you can't let go of the things you can't forget before, and look back on them. When you watch it, you won’t feel so sad anymore, but it will give you the courage and strength to continue facing life.”
Xu Hongdou didn't want to talk more about this topic, so she took a few steps first: "Let's go now. I just want to take a hot bath comfortably, and then just stay there and do nothing."
Wang Yan smiled, didn't say anything more, and just strolled around taking pictures...
Driving a brand new Raptor, playing soft and soothing music, opening the car windows and feeling the evening wind on the Erhai Lake, we returned to Yunmiao Village all the way.
His car contained a lot of food, beer, drinks, mineral water, etc. He would definitely not leave again, so he took everything back to the windy courtyard.
The two of them took their things to the side room, and saw Ma Qiushan, who was still wearing loose training clothes, sitting cross-legged on the sofa in the casual living room area in the corner of the side room, playing with the tea set and drinking tea, while holding a 108-bead bodhi tree. string. On the other side, there were Nana with her hair disheveled, and Damai wearing a hair cover and loose pajamas, each holding a soft sofa pillow and talking. Ma Qiushan smiled in front of his listeners. After all, it was hard for him to interrupt when two little girls were talking, so he just listened.
Seeing Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou come in, Ma Qiushan said hello with a smile: "You two are back. Did you have fun today?"
"Not bad." Wang Yan nodded with a smile and looked at Damai who was about to speak, "Why don't you code?"
Damai smiled innocently and said: "I thought about it carefully today and you are right, so I have to adjust my work and rest schedule. I will sleep until noon today and finish today's tasks in a daze. I will go to bed after a while. This way I'll get up early tomorrow morning."
"It's good. Keep it up. Don't go back in less than two days. Come, I have a lot of food here. You can take it yourself if you want. Don't be polite."
After putting the things away, Wang Yan said, "I'm going to clean up and take a shower. Let's talk again later."
Xu Hongdou nodded, put down his things and clapped his hands: "Me too, see you later. Well... I want to share something interesting with you, let's go now."
The remaining three people looked at me and I looked at you. Damai yawned: "The two of them are indeed very close. It's hard to tell that they only knew each other for two days."
Nana told her all this. When they were together, Nana would talk to her about a lot of nonsense. She and Wang Yan had a pleasant chat in the morning. After Nana got off work, when they had dinner together, she only raised her head and Nana told everything she knew about Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou. Having money, photography, traveling all over China, etc…
Ma Qiushan's face was filled with wisdom, as if everything was easy. He put down the tea and said, "They are destined to be together, and they both came here alone. It is reasonable to travel together, and they also take care of each other."
Nana didn't answer. She just looked at Da Mai's tired state and said, "Da Mai, I think it's almost time. You should go to bed quickly."
"It doesn't matter, I plan to go to bed at 10:30. By 7:00 tomorrow morning, I will definitely still not have enough sleep, but if I leave some room for another day, I should be completely adjusted the day after tomorrow."
Nana was still a little distressed, but she didn't say anything more. She knew Damai had a good idea.
Ma Qiushan on the side was a little curious: "Damai, did your writing go well?"
Damai didn't even think about it, just shook his head: "It's not going well, it's not going well at all."
"I don't understand, but I personally think that it's better to work behind closed doors. Isn't this thing about inspiration? It's not much different from Teacher Hu's song writing. You need to communicate more with friends and let different ideas collide, interweave, and integrate. , so that you have something to write, right? Writing, what you write about is life, and it penetrates the three perspectives."
"Yes, that's right. Wang Yan said the same thing this morning. He said that since I haven't entered the society, I lack social experience, so it will be more difficult to write. He suggested that I read more and think more. "
Now the three of them started chatting, each one saying the same thing to me, and it was quite warm.
At this moment, the beep of the electric car locking sounded. Not long after, Hu Youyu was carrying a broken acoustic guitar on his back and wearing a fashionable and trendy outfit. He was holding some food in his hand just like last night, and was walking swayingly. When I came in, I was screaming for a few steps and humming a song.
"Hey, isn't this sister Damai? What? Have you changed your gender? Why do you have time to come out and chat?" Hu Youyu leaned over exaggeratedly, looking carefree. He didn't wait for Damai to say anything. He said to himself, "Let me think about it. Ah, it’s been almost a month since Sister Damai came to this windy courtyard, how many times have I seen her here?”
He flexed his fingers in a pretentious manner and muttered about the scenes of their past meetings, "Now, including today, we have met five times in total. Sister Damai, are you afraid of me? Don't worry, I'm a gentleman."
Damai stared at Hu Youyu's one-man show with wide eyes and didn't answer anything.
Nana defended her good friend and said angrily: "Shit, Damai, it's just because work is inconvenient, and I'm avoiding you. After a day, I just talked a lot about it, but in the end I'm still single."
"Hey, it's not that I can't find it, it's that I don't want to find it. Is it so easy for a handsome, charming, and melodious prodigal to hand himself over? Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. .”
Seeing that Nana and Damai were about to roll their eyes, Hu Youyu picked up the food in his hand and shook it, "I brought you a midnight snack, what do you want to drink?"
Ma Qiushan waved his hand: "Didn't I tell you before that you won't eat after lunch, so why bother asking."
"Hey, what if you want to eat, right? Lao Ma, don't think I don't know. You sneaked out in the middle of the night to get extra food, and you said you wouldn't eat after lunch."
"Ahem..." Ma Qiushan, whose boss was exposed and his image as a master was ruined, coughed for a while and stared at Hu Youyu angrily, "You're not allowed to eat when you're hungry?"
"Look, you're still anxious. I talk about health and fitness all day long, but we've known each other for half a year, and I haven't seen you lose weight at all. Can eating in the middle of the night be healthy and nourish your character? Other me I don’t know, I just know that if you eat now, it will be healthier than eating in the middle of the night.”
"Hahaha……"
Seeing Ma Qiushan's embarrassed look, Nana was amused and laughed, and Damai also covered her mouth and laughed. This is a quiet village, not a bustling city, and they are all night owls. How could they not hear the clinking sound of a large spoon in the middle of the night, so they actually already knew about it.
Ma Qiushan had deceived himself before, but now looking at their expressions, he didn't know that they already knew it.
But he was thick-skinned, and the embarrassment was only temporary, and he didn't care that much. He smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll do as you please, give you face, and have a drink with you."
"Then thank you Master Ma for the favor." Hu Youyu laughed.
He knew who Ma Qiushan was, so he directly exposed his shortcomings and entertained the public. In fact, he knew very well that the others had already known it, and he was happy to tell it, and it would be great to be able to eat and play together.
"Nana, Damai, and Mr. Ma have all agreed. How much can we eat? Let's talk and have fun."
"Yeah, let's eat together. I've eaten all. What else do you think? It's Lao Hu who's treating us anyway. If you don't eat, you'll get nothing." Ma Qiushan helped, trying to pull everyone to the dinner table.
Nana and Damai looked at each other and stood up together. Nana said: "Then I will relax today and not lose weight."
Damai nodded: "Go to sleep after eating."
"That's right, everyone in the small courtyard is here, we have to..." Halfway through, Hu Youyu sighed, "Where are Wang Yan and Hongdou? They haven't come back? No way, I came back on an electric bike. At that time, I saw Wang Yan speeding past me in a big Raptor. Why are they gone even though I'm back? Are they tired from playing in the house? I'll call..."
Ma Qiushan waved his hand and said, "No need, they are both taking a shower and will be here soon."
Hu Youyu nodded: "Okay, let's eat first. I counted today as a good day, so I bought a lot more things. Oh, yes, there are also Wang Yan's specialties, which taste good. , let’s eat something too..."
When Wang Yan came in with the computer in his arms, what he saw was the four of them talking, laughing, eating and drinking.
He put the computer aside with a smile, walked over, pulled out a chair and sat down: "Hey, what's good today? Those who didn't go downstairs went downstairs, and those who didn't eat after lunch also started to eat."
"Isn't this just to welcome you? Our comrades from Youfeng Xiaoyuan have finally gathered together. Isn't it worth having two drinks?" Hu Youyu neatly opened a can of beer and put it in front of Wang Yan, "Here, Do it. I drank with you yesterday and it was a great pleasure."
Wang Yan took a small sip, shook his head and said, "I can't do it today. Hongdou and I ate a lot outside, and our stomachs are still bloated now. You can just eat and drink, don't worry about me, I can just sit here and talk to you. Let’s drink some other time.”
"Oh, yes, I forgot what you said yesterday." Hu Youyu patted his forehead, "Then let's drink less. The main thing is to chat."
Wang Yan listened to their chat with a smile. In fact, there was no theme. He talked about everything aimlessly. It was difficult to write and sing. His legs were numb from meditating. He was busy working and chatting very happily.
More than twenty minutes passed like this, and Xu Hongdou came over after washing up. Naturally, she couldn't eat or drink, so she sat next to Damai and joined in the lively exchange with a smile.
In order to celebrate this scene, Wang Yan, a professional photographer, was asked to get a camera and put it on a stand to take a bunch of group photos...
Nana sighed and said, "Hongdou, didn't you say you wanted to share something interesting before? Tell me about it?"
Xu Hongdou nodded, glanced at Wang Yan, smiled and told the story of Wang Yan catching the thief, and sighed: "Oh, you don't know, there are so many people taking pictures with their mobile phones, it's very scary. .”
Nana is an Internet person, and she nodded seriously: "That's true, now is the mobile network era, and self-media is so developed. Whenever something happens, people just hold up their mobile phones and take pictures. People online are also very violent. Whenever something happens, I will just scold you regardless of the facts."
Ma Qiushan couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that you guys just went out for a day and caught a thief. Okay, Wang Yan, you have a chance."
"You know martial arts, why don't you show us your skills?" Hu Youyu clapped his hands in encouragement.
Xu Hongdou clenched his gums and laughed: "Yes, yes, you said you would come back to eat. Come on, let's start your performance."
"Okay, just do it briefly."
Wang Yan didn't do any ink. He put on his slippers and stood on an open space inside the door of the wing. He quickly performed a set of Xingyiquan moves, including front somersaults, back somersaults, handstands, and one-hand handstands for a while. , received a burst of applause and cheers.
Nana maintained order and did not allow any noise after eight o'clock to affect the rest of the neighborhood.
After calming down, Damai, who was still clapping his hands slightly, said weakly: "Well...it's been more than an hour. So many people are taking pictures, and then post them, it will definitely be a hot search topic, right?" ? Even if it doesn’t reach the national level, there must be some hot searches in Dali, right?”
In an instant, the atmosphere calmed down, and everyone took a look at Damai. Then everyone tacitly took out their mobile phones, opened the most popular short video platform Dou Yishouyin, and chose the same city.
Sure enough, the first one was the video from that time, which was a ten-minute live recording. From Wang Yan suddenly knocking down the thief, to stabbing the thief with a bamboo stick, to saying the words not to spread rumors, to the police arriving, understanding the situation, and then leaving together, it was very detailed.
Obviously, someone was live broadcasting behind Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou, and happened to record the entire incident.
Nana said: "Wang Yan's words are of a high standard and very pertinent. Based on my past experience, this video will definitely go viral. The Dali police station will issue a statement tomorrow, and the tourism bureau will also reprint the announcement and intercept it." At the same time, there will definitely be official accounts from other places popping up out of nowhere to post what you said..."
"Not only that, maybe there will be interviews from local media." Hu Youyu clicked his tongue and slapped Wang Yan on the shoulder, "Wang Yan, you are going to be popular. When you get rich, you can't forget us. These Jiangdong elders..."
Wang Yan shook his head: "Pull him down quickly, I don't want to get angry at all, it's useless."
Ma Qiushan became energetic. He was worried for Wang Yan: "How many people are going crazy with the idea of fire? What can't they do for the sake of fire? This is an opportunity, you have to seize it. Look at you , those who are eloquent, have rich life experiences, are good at photography, and are good at martial arts, they will definitely be able to use this opportunity to develop a group of sincere fans."
"What can I do if I become popular? Make money with goods? Be influential? Wherever I go there are people taking pictures with their mobile phones? Why bother. I don't want to live in the spotlight and let people point fingers and find faults. I don't want to I don’t want any influence, let alone make money with goods. After all, I’m not short of money and live comfortably, so there’s no need to ask for trouble, right?”
Seeing Wang Yan spreading his hands and shrugging his shoulders indifferently, everyone fell silent for a moment, more or less pretending...
