Chapter 322: Interests Move People's Hearts
In the ward, Zhou Zhensheng and Qi Xue had been silent for a long time.
Only the instrument that monitors Zhou Zhensheng's heart rate and blood pressure would occasionally send out monitoring reminder sounds.
"Who suggested this?"
Zhou Zhensheng asked aloud. Qi Xue had already thought about this, so this was also what he asked the old man to find out.
"Proposed by Committee Member Song Lan, G, and adopted after a vote by the committee."
"Song Lan?"
Zhou Zhensheng frowned. He had limited knowledge of this person and had never dealt with him.
He looked at Qi Xue, who immediately said, "We're already checking."
"Be careful." This should be the Discipline Inspection Commission's business. Zhou Zhensheng was worried that Qi Xue would make too much noise.
"Yes, I know."
…
The next day, He Shu stayed in the room all day again.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Can changed another car to pick them up, and it took nearly two hours to arrive.
When He Shu got off the car, he saw that this was also a detention center. Tang Can told He Shu that this place belonged to the Nanzhan Anti-Drug Brigade and Ma Dao was being held in solitary confinement here.
Tang Can submitted some documents and the group was taken into a small white building.
Walking through the long and depressing corridor, He Shu felt as if he was back in the detention center and prison.
When they arrived at an iron gate, someone opened the door and He Shu saw that Ma Dao had been locked and was sitting inside.
There was no one else in the room except Ma Dao, so he took Ma Anqi in.
It has been almost a year since they last saw each other. Ma Dao recognized He Shu at a glance and smiled.
He has changed a lot compared to before. After his distinctive hairstyle was shaved off, he seems to be less sharp.
He Shu looked around and found that there were cameras installed in the house as expected, and there was more than one.
I brought a stool to Ma Anqi, and she sat down next to the door.
He Shu walked over and sat down two seats in front of Ma Dao, looking at him, but his eyes were always on Ma Anqi.
"I like this woman. Is she a gift from you to me?" Ma Dao laughed, his eyes lingering on Ma Anqi.
Ma Anqi has seen many vicious people and heard all kinds of nasty words.
So she just looked at the saber quietly. The person being interrogated today was not her, and she just observed the saber as an object.
He Shu was disgusted by Ma Dao's rudeness. Because of his name calling, Uncle Zhou and Zhou He almost lost their lives.
"Saber, didn't you want to see me? Just tell me what you want to say."
Ma Dao then withdrew his gaze and looked at He Shu again. It was obvious that he didn't care that He Shu brought one more person to listen to their conversation.
"Have you grown?"
He Shu frowned: "Let's talk about business. If there is nothing serious, I will leave."
"Hey, I just wanted to chat with you. Okay, I changed my mind again."
Ma Dao smiled brightly, like a child who played pranks and made adults anxious again and again but thought he was very successful.
He Shu snorted with a cold face: "After you die, I won't help you deal with your ashes, so no matter what you change your mind, it has nothing to do with me."
Ma Dao was stunned, looking very surprised: "Hey? Why did you change your mind?"
"Because I don't want to be fooled by you again. Sabre, if you called me here just to talk about the placement of ashes, then don't say anything. After I leave this time, I won't come again."
Ma Dao stopped smiling and rubbed his fingers on the horizontal board in front of him: "Could it be that something happened to that Zhou guy last time?"
Seeing that He Shu didn't say anything, he took a deep breath, and after he exhaled, he slumped in the chair.
"I want a cigarette."
He Shu didn't move because he didn't even smoke, so where would he get cigarettes for Ma Dao?
As a result, Ma Anqi took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from her pocket and handed them to He Shu.
He Shu was a little surprised, but he took it, opened the package, took out a cigarette and gave it to Ma Dao, and then lit it for him.
After taking a few deep puffs, Ma Dao seemed to come back to life and said to himself, "That guy named Zhou is pretty good. I had the most comfortable time when I was imprisoned with him."
"At least I can smoke as much as I want, and I can order the food I like. Hehe, the food in your north is pretty good. I've been thinking about it a lot since I came back."
Ma Dao said a few words and suddenly asked He Shu: "Can you cook?"
"meeting."
He Shu sat down again, watched him finish a cigarette, and handed him another one.
"Is he dead?"
He Shu knew that Ma Dao was asking about Zhou Zhensheng: "No, he was seriously injured."
"Oh, this is what you call good things happening to good people, right?"
Ma Dao laughed a few times: "Actually, people like us are very superstitious. We are always afraid of retribution for doing something bad."
It can be seen that Ma Dao hasn't had anyone to chat with for a long time.
He talked a lot, and he started talking almost as soon as He Shu entered the door, saying some nonsense that He Shu thought was undoubtedly nonsense.
“Why do you do bad things if you’re afraid of retribution?”
Ma Dao was very happy to see that He Shu was willing to talk to him.
"Because profit motivates people. Have you ever heard of this saying? With 300 % profit, people will dare to commit any crime?"
He Shu nodded; "Marx's Capital."
"Haha, yes, I haven't read it. Chen He told me this sentence. It's a very long paragraph, and I only remember this sentence."
Speaking of Chen He, He Shu looked at Ma Dao in a trance for a moment: "You shouldn't have dragged Chen He into this, he should have been a good person."
Ma Dao shook his head: "Good guy, bad guy, it's all your own choice. You said I dragged him into this, but it's better to say that Chen He used me to help him achieve his goal."
He Shu didn't comment: "Then what do you want to use me for?"
Ma Dao stopped laughing and suddenly became serious: "It's not a good word to use you. I want to use you because I regard you as a friend. Of course, I also understand that you won't be willing if there is no benefit."
He put his hands on the board and stared at He Shu: "But I'm afraid you won't be able to survive my attack!"
He Shu sighed: "I am not interested in your so-called interests. You know what I want. Ma Dao, you know your future fate very well. If you really believe in karma, don't let others sacrifice themselves."
Ma Dao pointed at the cigarette and He Shu refilled it for him.
Smoke gradually filled the room. Sabre took each puff very deeply, and the smoke he exhaled even blurred his face.
He Shu did not urge him, and Ma Anqi was as quiet as a sculpture.
After a long time, Ma Dao spoke, his voice a little hoarse: "What are you talking about karma now? If I satisfy you, will I not have to die?"
"Saber, you have to understand one thing. You are not doing this to satisfy me, but for those who sacrificed their lives on the silent battlefield."
Ma Dao snorted and laughed, thinking that it was naive and ridiculous for He Shu to talk about justice with him.
"What are you laughing at?" He Shu said sternly, "The motherland will always choose those who are loyal to the motherland, and will always remember those who dedicate themselves to the motherland! People like you who endanger the country and the people will only end up dead!"
"Since you think that people use each other for profit, then I will talk to you about profit! Give me what I need, and I will give you a blessing!"
Ma Dao didn't care about He Shu's scolding. He was born in the abyss and grew up in the mud. Everywhere he saw was naked greed .
He has been corrupted from the inside out, so how could he have any sense of family and country?
Sabre raised his head, the light above his head and the smoke in front of him made him squint.
"Blessings? Give me a dying person?"
He Shu shook his head, calmed down, and spoke lightly in Lisu.
"This is the good deed you have accumulated. Although you don't have the chance anymore, it will definitely benefit the people you care about."
