Lu Wei's family conditions are very ordinary. In addition to a landline phone at home, her parents do not have mobile phones. Listening to the regular dial tone coming from the mobile phone, Lu Wei couldn't help but feel a little angry with herself: after talking to her mother on the phone for two days, she didn't even think of asking her mother for the phone number of the ward where her father lived.
Her younger brother usually lives on campus and is away from home. It seems that she can only wait for her mother to come back before asking.
German buses are usually very punctual. Lu Wei didn't wait long when she saw a bus bound for the city center swaying towards her from a distance.
She had already thought about it. First, she would go to a bank in the city to transfer 1,000 euros to her family, and then ask her mother how much it would cost to treat her father and send her brother to school.
She now has a job as a model, as well as the paper introduced by Yu Jianghai and the job of a gunman. The situation seems to be much better than a week ago. But no matter what, she had to pass the exam first, then complete the paper as soon as possible and get as much money as possible, so that her mother could rest assured.
Dark clouds gradually rolled up from one side of the sky, and the sunlight was gradually blocked. Looking at the dark clouds, Lu Wei's heart became agitated.
Dong Qiangqiang cut some longer ropes into two pieces and made some more ropes.
He picked out two thicker branches from the nearby bushes, tied the extra rope into a circle, and tied it firmly to one end of the stick to make something like a horse pole. Passed it to Lei Lanting: "Try it."
Lei Lanting watched him tinker with it and come up with a gadget, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "I'll tell you first whether this gadget can catch pigs, but I'm convinced by your handiwork."
"Don't be poor, try it quickly and see if there is any problem." Dong Qiangqiang said as he quickly made the second horse roping pole.
Lei Lanting put the horse pole on a small tree and pulled it gently. He felt it was very relaxed. He exerted a little more force on his hand. The small tree was immediately pulled to one side by him elastically, but the rope did not Cracking or breaking.
"It looks fine, but I don't know if it can hold up (the pig)?"
"I understand," Dong Qiangqiang said as he was doing it. "You still have to take the initiative to catch pigs. This time we will use a different method."
"Well, tell me, I'm listening."
"Let's put the pig food bowl under the tree. When the pig starts to eat the bait, you will be responsible for putting the horse pole around its head on the tree and pulling its head up. I will be responsible for pulling the rope under the tree. Put the noose under each of its trotters, and then put it down after you have it covered."
"I'm afraid it won't let me hang its head obediently, right?" Lei Lanting was very skeptical of this suggestion.
"We can put the pig's food bowl higher. When you pull its head up, it can still eat, so it won't struggle particularly hard."
"Would it be too dangerous if you put the noose under its hooves or put it on its hooves? This is a big animal after all. Even if it doesn't bite you, you won't be able to bear it, kicking or hitting you, right?"
"Through these two pig captures, I discovered one thing: the pig is very focused when eating. It probably won't care too much about me." Dong Qiangqiang breathed a sigh of relief, "We have to give it a try even if there is risk. Wan Will it work?"
Yu Jianghai turned around slowly and looked at the short man calmly.
The short man jumped lightly from the locomotive to the ground, and another person immediately appeared behind Yu Jianghai.
"I said yesterday, you are going to bring..." Before the short man could finish speaking, Yu Jianghai immediately interrupted: "I have no money."
"Hmph, I don't have a long memory." The short man winked, and Yu Jianghai immediately heard the sound of a stick coming from behind.
He quickly bent down to hide at the wheel, and at the same time put a yellow helmet that was thrown on the ground on his head.
After a flurry of punches and kicks, the short man threw out one word: "Tomorrow." Then he walked away.
As the footsteps gradually faded away, Yu Jianghai took off his helmet, spit out bloody phlegm, and stood up slowly while holding on to the locomotive. He took out an A4-sized book from the clothes on his chest and threw the book to the ground next to him. Then he limped toward the train yard administrator's office.
"You have to hurry up." Fujino stood up, looked down at the staggering Zhang Yingfei and said, "so as not to have a long night and many dreams."
Although he didn't drink a few bottles of wine, Zhang Yingfei suddenly felt like the world was spinning. He shook his head vigorously and patted his face with his hands, but he still couldn't stop feeling drunk. Before he could make a promise to Fujino, he lay on the table and fell asleep.
Fujino leaned down, put his hand on Zhang Yingfei's shoulder, patted him gently and said in his ear: "If you don't do it, I will do it myself."
After walking out of the bank, Lu Wei walked to a bench, sat down, and started calling home again.
The call was connected quickly this time, and Lu Wei couldn't wait to say: "Mom, it's me. How is dad today?"
"Xiaowei, your dad is much better than yesterday. You don't have to call every day. I'm at home." On the phone, Mother Lu's voice sounded hoarse. She probably didn't have a good rest for several days and was overtired. Lu Wei's heart ached.
"Mom, I wired you 1,000 euros," Lu Wei said eagerly, "It's your China Merchants Bank account. You go to the bank tomorrow to see if you've received it."
"Oh, why are you sending me money?" Mother Lu complained, "The family is rich. Your father and I both have pensions."
Lu Wei sighed in his heart and said, "You can buy some supplements for dad first. I will send them to my family after a while."
"But, is it enough for you? Life in Germany is so expensive, and you are alone outside..." Mother Lu burst into tears as she spoke.
"That's enough," Lu Wei lied, "I earn a lot of money working here, so it's no problem to provide some supplement to my family."
"Really? Then don't be too hard on yourself when you are alone outside..." Mother Lu started to ramble again unconsciously.
In the past, Lu Wei would always feel bored hearing this, but today for some reason, she suddenly wished that her mother could talk to her for a little longer.
Raindrops fell from the sky in thick sheets, and people on the street looked around in panic for shelter from the rain. Lu Wei sat calmly on the bench, letting the rain fall on him.
She felt that the emotions she had suppressed for a long time were suddenly released, and she cried loudly.
There was a rustle in the bushes, and Dong Qiangqiang, who was squatting in the bushes, glanced at Lei Lanting on the tree.
Lei Lanting nodded at him and told him with his eyes: Here we go again.
This time it was a spotted pig that weighed about a hundred pounds. The pig's body was covered with leaves and mud, and it looked like it had just run out of a mud pond.
It slowly and staggeringly walked to the pig food bowl, suddenly raised its head and glanced at Lei Lanting who was leaning on the tree and looking down. This sight almost scared Lei Lanting from the tree, and he hurriedly hugged him tightly with his hands. tree trunk.
But Huazhu only took one look at it and started eating without paying any attention to Lei Lanting.
Dong Qiangqiang made a gesture to Lei Lanting and crept out of the bushes.
He saw Pig Trotters standing on several nooses, so he quietly tightened the nooses first, and then tightened the knots tied to different trees. After finishing, he nodded to Lei Lanting.
Lei Lanting understood, and quietly lowered the two horse-harnessing poles from the tree, little by little, to the pig's nose.
