deep sin

Chapter 146 Dangerous elements
I don’t know if it’s because An Changpu refused too quickly, or the results that I thought would be easy to get have turned out to be in vain. He does some hair maintenance and care, and by the way emphasizes that men need to be groomed these days, especially good-looking men should know how to treat their own advantages, so he told An Changpu that one head and two are big, and he asked Qin Ruonan to help him several times After making a rescue, Qin Ruonan just watched with a smile.

Finally, the hair-washing girl gave up lobbying and lost enthusiasm for An Changpu, the "sparing iron rooster". After saying that the boss would be here soon, she turned around and went out.

"I'm really glad this girl didn't go for publicity. Otherwise, if she is so persistent, she might really drag a group of people into the water!" An Changpu rubbed his temples and looked at Qin Ruonan wonderingly, "Strange Now, shouldn't you women be regarded as the high-consumer group of barbershops? Why does she keep lobbying me, why doesn't she work hard on you?"

"Because I'm not good at talking, and my complexion tends to turn ugly. You, you look like a nice man. Friends of women, it's really unreasonable not to start with you." Qin Ruonan couldn't help laughing because of An Changpu's embarrassment. , couldn't help running on him with some bad intentions.

"It seems that I have to learn from Brother Feng or Dr. Lu to cultivate my aura!" An Changpu sighed helplessly.

After a while, the owner of the barber shop came. He was a young man in his thirties, dressed in a fashion style. He probably had heard something from the shampoo girl before coming to the small warehouse, so he immediately He warmly greeted An Changpu and Qin Ruonan: "You two have been waiting for a long time! Sorry! There are some chores in another store and I can't leave."

While talking, he took down a large package of sterilized and packaged towels from the side shelf, and sat down under his buttocks as a chair cushion.

"Sit down, too!" After he sat down, he found that An Changpu and Qin Ruonan were still standing, and quickly pointed to the bundles of towels on the shelf behind them.

"It's fine if we stand, it's okay, you're welcome."

"That's all right, if you have any questions, just ask!" The boss is also a straightforward person, not too long-winded, and took the initiative to ask An Changpu and Qin Ruonan.

"Tell us about Cui Lidong!"

"He is not the one who has been with me for the longest time, but sometimes our industry is quite fluid, and his time with me is not too short when it gets sour," said the owner of the barber shop, habitually He took out a cigarette from his pocket, and then realized that he was in the warehouse where the sterilized towels were stored. It seemed that smoking was inappropriate, so he put it back again, "To be honest, I am not very satisfied with Cui Lidong, if he hadn't cut his hair His workmanship is very good, but he has attracted many repeat customers, I may have asked him to find another owner."

When An Changpu heard this, he became interested: "Because he didn't behave well with you, or did he have some bad habits?"

The boss waved his hand: "I can't talk about bad deeds and bad habits. He is usually quite quiet. He works when he has customers. When there is no one, he sits alone and listens to others talking and chatting. He is also very diligent. If it is his turn to be on duty, he will also help clean up the hair and garbage on the ground. I said that I am not satisfied with him. I want him to find another job several times. The main reason is that some of his friends always come to him , I don’t know much about Cui Lidong’s calls, I only know that he is not a local, but his friends who always come to him don’t look like good people.”

The boss's words attracted the attention of Qin Ruonan and An Changpu. Generally speaking, the more you work in the service industry, the more you can get in touch with people from all walks of life in society, especially people like restaurants and barbershops. Everywhere I need it, I have been doing it for a long time, and I have met many people of all kinds, and sometimes I can indeed practice keen insight.

Especially for businessmen, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is an instinct in the bones, which can make the barber shop owner feel that it is not a good thing, and therefore fired a very popular barber, which is enough to explain the so-called friends. But it is not good.

"About how many people are there? What kind of people are they? Do you often come to see Cui Lidong?" An Changpu asked.

"I really can't tell how many people there are. The number of people who come every time is not the same. When there are few, there are one or two people, and when there are many, there are four or five. How many people come to Cui Lidong more frequently? I watched. It looks familiar, and I don’t recognize people who come here occasionally. I haven’t been here for a while. In the past few months, I would come here once or twice a week. As soon as I entered the store, there was a lot of noise. Cui Lidong even has customers They didn't care, they talked around and gesticulated, which made the customers very unhappy, so when they came later, I gave Cui Lidong a vacation, let him and his friends go outside to 'reminisce about the old days', don't disturb the store here business here."

When the boss was talking about these things, he seemed to be recalling the appearance of those people. In the middle of the conversation, he suddenly realized that there were not no familiar faces among those people, so he added: "I remembered, those people often come to see Although I don’t know Cui Lidong’s, but once they brought a person with them. I know that person. He is a well-known gangster in our city. The owner of a restaurant offended that gangster, so he took ten or eight people to that restaurant every day, and ordered two taels of rice, one person per table, one grain at a time, like counting grains of rice, and he just didn’t leave , everyone looked like they had a sloppy face, but no one dared to eat there. In the end, the boss couldn't take it anymore, and offered to give the gangster a sum of money, begging him to let him go, and stop interfering with his business. So When I saw him coming along with me, I was scared to death."

"Then why did they come to find Cui Lidong? How does Cui Lidong treat them?" Qin Ruonan asked.

"I don't know what they came to find Cui Lidong for. Some of the people who came to see him seemed to know him very well, and some seemed to just follow him to see him, but they didn't know him very well. Cui Lidong didn't treat them well. It’s not hot or cold, and sometimes it disturbs him to give a customer a haircut, and he’s very impatient.” The boss gasped a little worriedly, “That’s why I’ve been unsteady, because I’m afraid that one day Cui Lidong will cut his hair. Those few people who are not easy to mess with are in a hurry. Let me also enter the store. I want to let him go. One is afraid that the repeat customers will not come, and the other is that I am also afraid that Cui Lidong is with them. , if I drive him away, he will hate me and target me, I can't stand it. Don't laugh at me when I tell you what's in my heart. It’s very embarrassing, Cui Lidong seems to be quite dangerous, at least I think so.”

"Apart from those few friends who seem to be from bad backgrounds, does Cui Lidong have any other behaviors that make you think he is a dangerous person?" An Changpu hoped that the owner of the barber shop could provide more.

The owner of the barber shop shook his head: "My two shops are still relatively far away. The other side opened later than this side, and they haven't been on the right track yet. In addition, the wife at home just gave birth, so I'm here. I don’t spend much time here, basically come here every day to have a look, stay for a while and leave, unless there is something special, call me and I will come here. Just now they called to say that the police came to question Cui Lidong I just came here, when Cui Lidong’s friends came over, the people in the store were afraid of something happening, so they would secretly call me and let me take a look at the situation.”

"Does Cui Lidong have a relatively close relationship in the store?"

"As far as I know, probably not. As I said just now, he is usually quiet except for work, and he doesn't seem to be particularly gregarious." The boss hesitated for a moment and said uncertainly, "But what I said may not be accurate. I didn’t ask about their personal friendship. I only know that Cui Lidong didn’t live in the house I rented with other barbers. He rented a house outside by himself. If you want to ask about Cui Lidong I can call those barbers who have been working in the shop for about the same time as him and the helpers, they spend more time with me than me, and maybe they can help you more than me."

"It would be the best if possible. When we came here just now, the business in your shop was pretty good. Let's try to make a long story short so that it won't take too long and affect your business." An Changpu told the owner of the barber shop polite way.

The boss waved his hand indifferently: "Money will never be enough, it doesn't matter if it's too much or too little, it doesn't matter for a while! I knew before that Cui Lidong was suspected of killing someone, and people in our store heard that there was an accident around us. The murderer was shocked, so what should you ask when you come here today! If he was wronged, at least we also know that there is no murderer hiding around us. If he really killed someone , Sentence him quickly, imprison him for life or simply shoot him, we actually need to feel more at ease, otherwise we will always feel silly."

The owner of the barber shop did what he said, he went out personally and asked those barbers and hairdressers who spent a long time with Cui Lidong on weekdays to ask An Changpu and Qin Ruonan to wait a while.

"It sounds like this boss is more willing to believe that Cui Lidong is really the murderer in his heart. You heard how uncertain his tone was when he said that Cui Lidong might be wronged!" An Changpu shook his head. , a little helpless, originally Cui Lidong's experience and family background were not in a good position for him, but unexpectedly even his employer thought he was a dangerous person.

"Truth is sometimes in the hands of the majority, but sometimes it is in the hands of the few. Let's listen to what other people have to say before speaking." Qin Ruonan said.
