Chapter 362 Chicken, 8 cents
"Okay, forgive me for not studying much and leaving school early."
Xu Xi smiled.
He Shangsheng put the cigarette back. It was a pity that he couldn't have a lighter when he was feeling so comfortable.
In the library, he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, when the murder happened in your library, were you here? Did you see what the murderer looked like?"
Xu Xi's smile froze, and he glanced at He Shangsheng calmly, then shook his head and said, "I didn't notice it. It was my colleague who discovered it first and called the police. You know I'm a very timid person."
"That's true. If you find out, don't be scared to death. Is your colleague here?"
"What are you doing? Stop meddling in other people's business. This case is not under the jurisdiction of your police station."
He Shangsheng had seen Ma Jun and others handle cases with the same swiftness and determination, and couldn't help but say, "I've been waiting for this opportunity for so long. I want to fight for it not to prove how great I am, but to tell everyone that I must take back what belongs to me with my own hands."
Xu Xi shrugged and said, "Okay, you have ambition, but unfortunately you can only wait for your chance."
"Not necessarily. I recently met someone who might be able to help me." He Shangsheng smiled mysteriously. He couldn't deal with Xu Xi. Was this kid hinting at me? It shouldn't be. He has strong limbs and a simple mind. How could he know that he was secretly helping him?
Xu Xi didn't want to dwell on this issue, so he just raised his hand to eat some of He Shangsheng's veteran's food.
"Wait, wai, wai, you have no moral principles. How could you take my veteran when I wasn't paying attention?"
"Don't scream at me. If you lose, you lose. You have to accept the loss, do you understand?"
…………
"Hey, have you seen this coin? Tell me, with this coin in my hand, you lose, or without you lose." Zhang Lang came back from fishing and, as expected, came back empty-handed. He was too embarrassed to go back to the villa, so he went straight upstairs to wait for Ruan Mei to cook for him. After eating and drinking, he began to fool this miser, the little Jew, Grandet, and told Ruan Mei that if she won, she would give her 100 Hong Kong dollars, and if she lost, she only needed to cook him a meal.
He wanted to let Ruan Mei know that gamblers should not be touched, especially those who play stocks.
Ruan Mei looked at the coin that Zhang Lang obviously placed in his right hand and said, "I lose if I don't."
"If you don't lose, then I have the coin in my hand, so I win." Zhang Lang held back his laughter and said to Ruan Mei's clever eyes.
"hold head high?"
Zhang Lang: “Isn’t that right?”
Ruan Mei scratched her head, took the coin from Zhang Lang's hand, and stared at Zhang Lang again.
Zhang Lang clenched his fist, turned it over, and grinned at Ruan Mei: "Then I'll ask you again, do you think you will lose with or without me?"
Ruan Mei looked at the coin in her hand and said, "I won't lose if I don't."
Zhang Lang said with a bright smile: "You lost without me, right?"
"Ah."
Zhang Lang opened his palm, which was empty: "No, you lose."
Ruan Mei quickly put the coin in Zhang Lang's hand and looked at him with a confused face. She felt that she was being controlled by Zhang Lang and something was wrong, but she couldn't put it into words.
Zhang Lang looked at the coin in his hand, then clenched his fist and flipped it over: "I lose with you, or I lose without you."
Ruan Mei said unconfidently: "No...I won't lose."
"You didn't lose." Zhang Lang turned his hand over and showed the coin in his hand, saying, "Yes, I won again, right?"
Ruan Mei used both hands to push the hair on both sides of her cheeks back randomly, and snatched the coin from Zhang Lang's hand: "You guessed it wrong." She put her hands behind her back, tossed them back and forth for a long time, then clenched her fists and turned her palms over, and said confidently to Zhang Lang: "Guess what I have in my hand."
"Well, no problem." Zhang Lang agreed with a smile.
He touched the slightly cool skin of Ruan Mei's right hand for a while and said, "If there is something in this hand, I win, if there is nothing in this hand, I lose."
"Yeah." Ruan Mei nodded and turned her palm over to open it, but there was nothing.
Zhang Lang: "Without you, I lose."
Ruan Mei: That’s not right. I can’t tell what’s wrong.
"I wonder if this thing is powerful?"
"Wait a moment, I'll try again." Ruan Mei put her hands behind her back again, and after tossing them back and forth for a long time, she put her hands between the two of them.
Zhang Lang touched Ruan Mei's right hand again and said, "It's still this hand. If I have it, I win. If I don't have it, I lose."
"Yes, I won again." Zhang Lang spread out Ruan Mei's hand, and the coin inside was placed quietly in the palm of her hand.
"I don't believe you can guess two correctly."
Zhang Lang smiled crookedly: "Just go ahead and have fun, I'm really good at it."
"Guess again." Ruan Mei still did the same thing, but it took a little longer.
"Let me guess with the other hand." Zhang Lang touched Ruan Mei's other hand mysteriously and said, "If you have it, I win. If you don't, you lose."
He patted Ruan Mei's hand, and the coin was clearly there in her palm.
Ruan Mei's CPU is about to burn out.
Don't give Ruan Mei time to react.
Zhang Lang said, "Ruan Mei, you are so frugal, so which one do you think is more expensive, chicken or beef?"
"Needless to say, it's awesome!" Ruan Mei blurted out without even thinking.
Zhang Lang shook his head and said, "No, it's a chicken."
"why?"
"Because it's just a drop in the bucket."
"What about the chicken?"
"Eight cents!"
"Why is it Ji Ba Mao? Oh, you are so mean."
"Hey, it's just a joke, don't be angry."
"I'm not angry, I'm being deducted money because of the pun."
……
Zhang Lang was speechless.
"Ruan Mei, how long have you been applying for public housing?"
"It's been a long time since I was approved. It's so annoying. Although the house I live in now is close to where I work part-time, the rent is too expensive. The prices in the supermarket here are also more expensive than other places."
Zhang Lang listened to Ruan Mei's complaints and said, "The public housing area is a mess, and there are all kinds of people there. If you move there, you will probably be swindled out of all your money, considering your stupid appearance."
"I'm not stupid. I can calculate quickly."
"Then why did you keep losing?"
"That's different. You're cheating. How can you say that? If you win, I won't lose. Then I will definitely lose all the time."
"Wow, you reacted so quickly, that's amazing. I set the rules of the game, so whatever I say is correct, right?"
"You're so mean. You hugged me and said such things to me after only knowing each other for two days. Just now you even tricked me into cooking a few more meals for you. I've spent a lot of money on groceries these two days." Ruan Mei felt bad about the money for groceries. She usually lived frugally and didn't spend a penny. But she felt so bad that she couldn't breathe when she had to buy chicken and fish for Zhang Lang after knowing him for only two days.
The stingy look made Zhang Lang laugh.
"I just used a little trick to tell you that gambling is not something you can touch. If you want to move to a public housing estate, if someone there tries to take you to buy stocks or something, you have to be careful, okay?"
"I won't buy stocks. I'll keep all my money."
