Rebirth: Don’t be a coward and be a mother’s baby

Xie Jianjia never knew that there was such an underground casino in Linhai City.

In recent years, the world has not been as chaotic as it used to be. The streets are managed by dedicated personnel, and there are rarely any fights or fights. Even the most common street gangsters in the past did not dare to wander outside in groups in strange clothes, let alone It's a casino, and to open a formal chess and card room requires a lot of steps and connections.

How dare you set up an underground casino here?

Xie Jianjia lowered her head and followed the middle-aged woman on crutches. She could feel that many people were looking at her probingly along the way. In order not to attract attention, she could only droop her head lower and lower.

After walking through the noisiest area in the middle, we entered a long corridor.

It was noticeably quieter here, with only small whimpers and sobs.

Xie Jianjia raised her eyes slightly, and the person who made the sound was a thin woman, kneeling on the ground, with long hair covering her face, making it difficult to see her face clearly.

After taking a glance, he immediately looked away.

After walking a few more steps, there was a man lying on the corner, face down and motionless, not sure whether he was dead or alive.

Xie Jianjia pretended to be startled, took a few steps and shook her body.

"Don't be afraid, he is just asleep, not dead." The middle-aged woman noticed the girl's "fear" and explained.

Then he turned another corner and arrived at the door of a box.

The middle-aged woman tiptoed and put her crutch aside, leaning against the wall. She carefully reached out and knocked on the door.

"Brother Qiang, Liu Sheng asked someone to pay back the money."

Seeing the nervous look on the woman's face, Xie Jianjia guessed that this "Brother Qiang" was probably the boss of an underground casino.

"Enter."

Came the man's fierce tone.

The middle-aged woman pulled Xie Jianjia and pushed the door open together.

In the dim atmosphere, several men of different shapes were lying on the sofa, basically each holding a woman. Two mahjong tables were placed on one side and one on the right. Listening to the shouting, they must be playing cards.

"Brother Qiang, this is the girl who paid off the money for Liu Sheng. She is mute and can't speak. I don't know how much Liu Sheng still owes you. I can only bring him to you. This girl has 50,000 cash on her."

The middle-aged woman's tone was full of flattery.

A pair of linen slippers appeared in Xie Jianjia's field of vision, which shows that this "strong brother" does not pay much attention to personal image.

"Fifty thousand?" Brother Qiang instantly raised his voice, his rough voice particularly noisy.

"He, Ma Le Gobi, owes me 1.5 million. He ran away before he could even finish what he asked me to do. He only paid 50,000?! He's just sending me a beggar, bah!"

Xie Jianjia shook her shoulders in cooperation.

Inexplicably, I feel that the man's voice is a bit familiar...

The middle-aged woman also shivered twice in fear.

"Then, do you want to charge the fifty thousand yuan?"

"Take it?" The man raised his voice, "Of course he has to take it, he owes me 50,000 yuan!"

As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged woman immediately pushed Xie Jianjia in front of her.

"The money, the money is with this girl!"

Xie Jianjia panicked and handed a wad of money from his pocket to Brother Qiang in front of him.

Taking this opportunity, he quickly raised his head and glanced at the man.

After seeing the man's face, Xie Jianjia's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she really wanted to lower her head to the ground.

The money in his hand was roughly snatched away by the man. The man casually threw a wad of money on the table without even counting it.

"Add more weight."

"Hey, Brother Qiang, come on now!"

I don't take fifty thousand yuan seriously at all.

Brother Qiang looked condescendingly at the girl standing in front of him, and became interested when he remembered that she was a mute. He had never seen a real mute around him, which was really strange.

"Raise your head and let me take a look."

Xie Jianjia grasped the gap between her trouser legs with her anxious hands, as if she had made some determination, and slowly raised her head, secretly praying that she could get away with it, and that the other party would never recognize her.

Brother Qiang looked at the mute female student in front of him who was dressed immaturely. She had sallow and dark skin, her cheekbones were raised high, her face was covered with pockmarks of various sizes, and her chin was as big as a little fingernail. The scars are too ugly, and it’s a bit off-putting after looking at them for a long time. "Let's go, let's pay back the money, get out of here!"

Brother Qiang was not interested in movies about little girls who had not yet grown up, but after seeing Xie Jianjia's face, he became even more irritated.

"Smelly bitch, take this ugly monster away quickly!"

"Yes, yes, I will take her away right away."

After receiving the instructions, the middle-aged woman turned around and left Xie Jianjia. At this moment, she could walk very fast without the support of crutches.

After leaving the box, the middle-aged woman patted her heart and let out a long breath.

"Girl Pianzi, let's leave quickly."

Xie Jianjia nodded and quickened his pace to follow the woman. The woman was focused on leaving here and no longer paid attention to her every move as when she came. .

So Xie Jianjia raised her head and remembered all the items in the corridor.

Including crying women and men who don't know whether to live or die.

The woman was not like kneeling on the ground just now. Now she was staggering, holding on to the wall, and limping out. Xie Jianjia caught her eye as she passed by.

My heart, which had already let go, jumped hard.

Oh my god, what a hell day, why did I see two acquaintances!

The woman didn't notice Xie Jianjia and just walked out while holding on to the wall.

"Girl, don't have any contact with Liu Sheng when you go back. Don't help anyone who asks you to help pay back the money." After saying that, he looked at Xie Jianjia's face and sighed softly, "It's a shame that you are ugly..."

Xie Jianjia continued to pretend to be a deaf mute and could not hear anything. She took out a pen and paper from her pocket.

[Aunt, is your leg injured? 】

The middle-aged woman approached Xie Jianjia. Now that she had walked out of the underground area, she could raise her voice slightly.

"This is the consequence of offending Brother Qiang. Brother Qiang is the man you gave money to just now! He is very strong and has a strong temper. He will hit people if they don't go his way at all. He never cares whether the other person is a man or a woman, old or young. When I'm in a bad mood, I kick someone, and he kicked me in the leg. It's been three months and I still haven't returned to normal."

Xie Jianjia opened her mouth slightly in surprise.

When the middle-aged woman saw this, she knew that her words had frightened the little girl, but it was okay. She just wanted to scare her and not join in the fun.

"Come on, your brother is still waiting for you. Go back and don't come."

After speaking, he waved his hands as if to chase people away.

Xie Jianjia trotted out, as if there was an evil ghost chasing behind her.

"call--"

After exiting the door of Heshun Card Room, he walked to the side where Chu Fan parked his car, quickly opened the passenger door and got in.

"Scared me."

Chu Fan handed over mineral water and tissues.

"What did you see on the second underground floor? You were so scared."

Xie Jianjia took the water and poured it down her throat. After a while, she relaxed completely and spoke.

"There is a backyard on the first floor of the chess and card room. There is a room in the backyard with a darkroom that leads to the first and second floors below ground. The first floor below seems to be filled with groceries, and the second floor below is a casino."

Chu Fan showed a puzzled expression, "Casino?"

"Correct."

Xie Jianjia cleared her throat. Pretending to be mute was also a technical job and quite tiring.

"Guess who I saw inside?"

"Who?"

"Zhou Qiang! And my cheap stepmother—Wu Xue!" He took another sip of water, and his throat felt much better.

Xie Jianjia took a deep breath.

"Thank you, I had the foresight to put on ugly makeup on the way here, otherwise I would be instantly recognized by the two of them. I didn't expect that Zhou Qiang, who was in despair, actually slipped away to Linhai City and started a casino business..."
