Chapter 298: Chapter 298 - Prison

Zhou Ze sent this crowdfunding message to Lin Wanqiu on wechat,

after ten minutes, Lin Wanqiu replied with a message:

“Got it.”

Then..,

it was gone..

These three simple words made boss Zhou feel that this morning’s cat feces coffee didn’t even have the slightest taste of feces,

everything seemed a little dull.

“Boss, What’s Wrong?”Yingying, who had just woken up, asked the old man.

“Those who are loved have nothing to fear. Those who can’t get will always be in turmoil. Now that I’ve flipped it, I’m not used to it.”

“Why do you speak so strangely?”Yingying couldn’t understand.

“You’re still young. You’ll understand when you grow up,”the old man said while stroking his goatee.

“You’re older than me?”

“You’re still cold. You’ll understand when you get warmer.”

Zhou Ze, who was staring blankly at his phone, noticed that the coffee cup in front of him was gently vibrating. He raised his head and saw that Yingying was chasing after the old Taoist and beating him up.

The monkey pounded on the side and squeaked, but the monkey had inherited the old Taoist’s heart. He only squeaked, but did not dare to go down and stop the zombie.

“You’re making so much noise early in the morning. What are you making so much noise for? It’s so annoying!”

The Little Loli walked downstairs,

she did not comb her hair,

she was wearing pajamas.

The bookstore was bustling with activity early in the morning. Boss Zhou stretched his body and saw a police car parked outside the bookstore from the corner of his eye.

He got up and walked out.

The Little Loli noticed that Zhou Ze had gone out and was about to follow him out to take a look.

“Hey, you haven’t washed your face, you haven’t brushed your teeth, you haven’t even changed your clothes and you’re already going out like this!”Bai Yingying came over and asked.

“It’s none of your business.”The Little Loli had been displeased with this silly zombie for a long time.

“This is a bookstore, the boss’s execution ground. You’re the Boss’s subordinate, so you represent the boss’s image when you go out. If you go out casually like this and someone sees you, the boss will lose face!”

“…”the Little Loli.

“You took the wrong medicine today, Stinky Zombie!”

The Little Loli made a face at Bai Yingying and stuck out her tongue.

When she turned around again, she found that Zhou Ze had already left in the police car.

“Where is he going so early in the morning?”

“To investigate a case,”Bai Yingying said.

“He’s so mysterious.”

The Little Loli pouted and called out:

“The boss’s image is hungry. He wants to eat!”

“Okay, wait.”

Seeing that she had successfully left the Little Loli behind, Bai Yingying went along with her wishes and prepared breakfast for her.

The Little Loli looked outside again and then looked at Bai Yingying’s back,

she cupped her chest with both hands,

she muttered,

“Stupid zombie, sooner or later, someone will sell you and you’re still counting the money for them! If you don’t want me to go, then I won’t go.”

The Little Loli sat on the sofa in a huff. She rested her chin on one hand and watched the little monkey play with the Yin-yang book, tossing and turning.

“Stinky Zhou Ze, is my status worse than a Monkey?”

..

“Youtiao.”

Zhang Yanfeng handed a Youtiao to Zhou Ze.

“I’ve eaten it.”Zhou ze waved his hand.

Zhang Yanfeng nodded and ate while driving.

“Is this a police car?”

“What’s Wrong?”

“Your public car is for personal use.”

“I’m going to the prison to hand in some materials today. It’s on the way.”Zhang Yanfeng glanced at Zhou Ze. “If you haven’t come out by the time I hand in the materials, I won’t wait for you. You can take a taxi back.”

It was nine o’clock in the morning when the car arrived at the prison. Zhang Yanfeng had arranged for a visit, and the two of them separated after entering the prison.

Zhou Ze sat behind the glass panel alone and waited. He was a little bored, but he couldn’t smoke here.

After waiting for about fifteen minutes..,

a tall man with a thin face walked in accompanied by a guard. When he saw Zhou Ze sitting outside, he was a little surprised. He turned around and asked the guard beside him something. After confirming that he didn’t make a mistake, he sat down.

He picked up the phone and asked directly:

“Who are you?”

“I’m a friend of Officer Zhang. I need to come and understand some things from you.”

“You’re a reporter?”

“I’m not.”

“What’s in it for me to tell you things?”

“Maybe I can find a way to help you get away with it.”

“Heh.”

The other party smiled,

“I’ve already been in prison for five years. I’m still one year away from getting out. Why Am I torturing myself?”

“If you can prove that you were wronged, you can receive compensation.”

“I’m sorry. First of all, I firmly believe that I’m innocent, that I’m innocent. But my wife and my two children have already died. This is the truth.

“I have to thank my five years in prison. Perhaps if I was outside, I would have been unable to withstand the mental pressure and committed suicide long ago. Here, I have found peace again.”

Zhou Ze really had nothing to say about the other party’s attitude. He nodded and stood up, indicating that he could end this visit.

“It’s over?”

The other party was a little surprised, but he still put down the phone, stood up, and prepared to follow the guard back.

Zhou ze watched his back and disappeared behind the door. His originally smiling and genial face slowly turned cold.

Zhou Ze had seen the other party’s attitude in some ascetics before. They treated all the suffering that the world had given them as the experience that Buddha had given them, so that they could enjoy it as much as they liked.

But this was a prison,

not a church,

a middle-aged man who had lost his wife and children,

to be able to give up everything in prison..,

regardless of whether others believed it or not..,

zhou Ze did not believe it.

Walking out of the visiting room, Zhou Ze dialed Zhang Yanfeng’s number.

“It’s over so soon?”

“Yes.”

“I still need a while here. Wait for me at the entrance of the prison.”

“Okay.”

Outside the prison, it was a little desolate. Zhou ze squatted beside a stone by the side of the road and silently lit a cigarette.

If it was just suspicion before, now Zhou Ze had a premonition that the female writer’s husband must know something.

As for the deeper part..,

zhou Ze didn’t think about it,

because it was a bit scary to think about it.

Whether the pen was in the other person’s hand or not, it was meaningless to probe and ask directly in meaningless colloquial language. Instead, it would alert the enemy.

You could say that boss Zhou was a little timid,

but as a salted fish, you had to put yourself in the safest position so that you could bask in the Sun leisurely.

Taking a few steps back, he looked at the Iron Gate of the prison and then at the tall building of the prison,

zhou Ze was wondering if he should find an opportunity to sneak in and take a look?

If the pen was really in the other person’s hand,

then he definitely couldn’t give him a chance to react.

The little girl said, “I’m going to crouch down and draw circles to curse you.”There was a high chance that she was acting cute,

but if she really created a story for the person holding the pen and gave you a side character, then she was really working hard.

At this time, the phone rang. Zhou Ze picked up the call. It was the old priest.

“Hello, boss. The neighboring bookstore has been taken over by someone. The renovation team has already entered. I asked, and it was director Lin who sent someone.”

“OH.”

Zhou ze remembered that Lin Wanqiu said she wanted to open a pharmacy next to Zhou Ze’s bookstore, because she always felt that the tutor in her memory was a bit too unprofessional to sell books on a full-time basis.

“The renovation team is here to ask you, which style do you want?”

The old man shouted over the phone.

“Follow the layout of the bookstore.”

“Follow the layout of the bookstore?”The old man was stunned. was there a pharmacy like this?

“That’s it.”

“Oh, okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Ze thought that he still had to call Lin Wanqiu to ask about it. After all, he was the one who sent the injured person there yesterday, and the injured person’s brother’s behavior of swindling donations and trying to make a windfall had brought a great deal of damage to Lin Wanqiu’s hospital’s image.

“Hello, what’s the matter?”

Director Lin answered the phone.

“How do you plan to handle the crowdfunding matter?”

“I’ve already asked the lawyer to sue that crowdfunding website. At the same time, the hospital’s official Weibo has also posted the video from the receiving of the injured person to the end of the surgery yesterday.”

“Can it be salvaged?”Zhou ze asked with some guilt.

They were not divorced yet. Even if they were divorced, they would still feel a little guilty for cheating their ex-wife, who was a man, right?

“I already knew about the crowdfunding news that the injured brother posted last night,”director Lin said.

“Huh?”

“Then, I helped him. I helped him buy a troll army to buy a Big V, and the retweet helped him gain a lot of exposure. Of course, his crowdfunding also raised 500,000 yuan. He was also very happy.”

“You did this on Purpose?”Zhou ze suddenly understood.

“That’s right. When this matter became famous, when many people began to criticize my hospital for only accepting money and not caring about people’s lives, I seized the opportunity to buy more marketing accounts to help me forward the truth of the matter, publish the video, and denounce it.”.

“Now, the online public opinion is praising my hospital. Actually, it didn’t have much money before and after. It was simply thrown out as advertising money. The effect was surprisingly good. Whether it was the public opinion or the higher-ups, they all praised the hospital.”

“Then I was worried for nothing.”

“Do you think I’ve Changed?”

“A little.”

“I’m the director now. The entire hospital depends on me for a living. I’m no longer the little girl who followed you around during your internship.”

“Okay.”

The call ended,

boss Zhou looked at his phone, threw down the cigarette in his hand, and stepped on it with the sole of his shoe.

“Hey, get in the car. What are you daydreaming about?”

Zhang Yanfeng had already driven out of the car and honked at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze got in the car.

“Did you get anything out of him?”

Zhou ze shook his head.

No matter what the truth was, Zhang Yanfeng was not suitable to be involved in this matter anymore.

“Alright, I’ll go back to the police station. I’ll send you back to the bookstore on the way.”

“Thanks.”

“It’s on the way, it’s on the way. I Won’t use the public car for personal use.”

Zhang Yanfeng patted the steering wheel, and a book that had been on it fell down.

Because he was driving, Zhou Ze bent down to help him pick it up.

“Road to Salvation?”Zhou ze glanced at the title of the book. “Look at this?”

“My brother-in-law wrote it. It’s the one you visited in prison,”Zhang Yanfeng said with pride.

“He wrote it?”

“Yes, he actively reformed in prison. He even wrote a few books about prison life. Some of them have already been published, and some haven’t been published yet. Because of this, he even got a reduced sentence.”

Zhou Ze held the book in his hand with some seriousness,

on the cover,

it was a panoramic photo of Tongcheng prison.

He leaned out of the car window and looked at the Tongcheng prison behind him,

for some reason..,

he suddenly felt that..,

this towering and tall prison..,

was a little similar to the haunted house villa that Bai Yingying had bought earlier..,

a little..,

similar..
