King of Trash - C22
Old White took me to the back wall of a cable factory, and we went in through a very secretive little iron gate. Then I was taken to a warehouse, and when I went through the iron gate I realized what was going on, but I didn’t have the nerve to go in.
Through the warehouse window, Old White pointed to the neatly stacked bundles of white wrapping paper wrapped around the coil and said excitedly, “This is full of copper wire. How much do you think it’s worth?”
“It’s a waste. My dad works for this factory. The things inside have been stored for many years. If no one wants them, we would take them even if we don’t want them.” great flight said in a low voice. great flight did not say much, he did not say much when he was drinking.
“How do we get so many out?” I asked.
“Don’t worry about that. We’ll take care of it. You take care of it.” Old Bai laughed.
“Sure, I’ll get someone to collect it.” I nodded. Youngsters make their decisions very quickly and don’t really think about the consequences. It was the same for me back then.
Three days later, in the evening, I rode my tricycle to the side of the electric cable factory’s wall to wait. Not long later, Old Bai and great flight brought out a bundle of copper wires from the metal door, and the lock on the door was already smashed.
Together we carried the copper wire to the tricycle, and then they went to get the next bundle, and so they got seven in all, and my tricycle was full, and I said go, there were dozens of bundles in the warehouse, and it was not realistic to steal them all at once, only batch by batch.
Ol ‘White said he was going to get another bundle, so they went in again. I stayed by the small iron gate and waited. It was just after dark, and I was waiting for them when a beam of light suddenly shot over!
“Who is it!” Someone shouted.
I was scared out of my wits and was discovered!
I rode my bike and ran. The people behind me started to chase me. A sharp whistle sounded, and I lost my head. I kept on riding. There were so many copper coils on the car that I couldn’t even ride properly.
“Get down here!” I was yanked out of the car by a man in a security uniform.
The moment I was captured, I felt cold all over!
From the time I was chased to the moment I was captured, Old White and great flight had never appeared. I was grabbed by two security guards to the warehouse and the door to the warehouse was forced open, but there was no one inside.
After a round of interrogation, I still did not reveal Old Bai and great flight. I kept on saying that I was the one who did it, and the guards did not believe me at all, but even if I bit myself to death, I did not know why, but I did not want to reveal them. I felt that since we were friends, I had to show loyalty to my friends.
The security department immediately called the police, and I was sent to the police station. The police station informed my father, and when he saw me, he slapped me hard in the face.
“I’ve raised you for so many years just to make you a thief!” My father was red with anger.
I kept my head down and didn’t say anything. Tears welled up in my eyes. My dad hadn’t hit me since I was a kid. It wasn’t enough to slap me, my dad even kicked me a few times. If I wasn’t stopped by the police, he would still hit me.
Because of the huge amount of money and its serious nature, I was locked up in the police station for three days. If I wasn’t old enough, the police said, I would have been sentenced to death by now, but for those three days, I was completely confused. My father had been drinking in the room ever since I came back from the police station.
My dad didn’t hit me or scold me. He just went straight to bed after drinking and didn’t say a word to me.
I thought that this matter was over, but I didn’t. A few days later, I received a notification that made me regret my decision.
I don’t know what happened, but it turned out to be so cruel that I couldn’t get into high school! My father went to the Education Bureau and got a reply that I had committed a crime and needed to be punished severely for students like me. The head of the Education Bureau said that his superior department had just issued a related document and I coincidentally bumped into it. They said that if I wanted to continue attending school, I would have to go to a higher school!
He wiped away his tears. Just as I said this, my dad suddenly became furious and beat me up on the street. He hit me so hard that blood flowed down from the corner of my mouth, and my dad trembled as he pointed at me and yelled, “I don’t have a son like you!”
I sat by the side of the street for half a night, then I went to the river bank, looking at the torrential river water I did not stop tears, I miss my mother! I can’t even remember what she looked like. Every time I think of her, I feel a sweet taste in my mouth, and I don’t know where it comes from, but it’s sweet to think of my mother anyway, but that time the sweetness in my mouth is gone!
I sat on the riverbank until dawn. When I got home, my father wasn’t there, there was breakfast on the table, and I came out again with tears in my eyes from eating steamed buns. When my father came back in the evening, he still didn’t talk to me, but he didn’t hit me again and scolded me.
In the end my father forgave me, and I accepted it.
In the end, I still have to go to higher vocational school. Perhaps, this is my life! Coincidently, Zhao Feng and I went to the same school, and the moment Zhao Feng came back, she knew that I was in. She was originally very angry, but knowing that we were going to the same school, and also became extremely happy, I was speechless.
That day, Zhao Feng was wearing a very conservative dress, and her hair was cut short. It turned out that Zhao Feng liked to wear revealing clothes a little, and was relatively casual with the boys, so I found out that she was slowly changing.
Zhao Feng treats me pretty well, we can always chat happily together. I guess she might like me a little, but I’m not sure, but I feel that Zhao Feng is very contradictory. On one hand, I think she’s pretty good, and on the other hand, I really care about her past affairs. I’m actually still thinking about Shen Yiran. Even though it hurts my heart, I still can’t forget.
On that day, I stood at the entrance of the school for a long time, looking at the signboard, which said “Xintai Vocational and Technical School”. I would be studying here for three years, and my heart was filled with mixed feelings. The first turning point of my life has come!
Everything was new, everything about the school made me feel new, new school, new classmates, I want to start again here!
“Wang Haoyu, are we going to stay here for three years?” Zhao Feng very naturally grabbed onto my arm, and she had a satisfied smile on her face.
After registering, I sent Zhao Feng to the female dorm building. I didn’t allow males to enter the dorms, and when I saw Zhao Feng to the entrance, I went over to the male dorm building. I also divided the dorms, and the depression in my heart was diluted a little by the novelty.
It was a boy with glasses who was already there when I entered the dorm. He politely asked me what I called him when I entered the dorm, and as I said, he also introduced himself, his name was Zhang Shaobo, and he was the first student I knew. My relationship with my classmate had always been rather light, because they always mocked me, and the politeness of the glasses warmed my heart.
The other two people in the dorm also came later. These two roommates were called Gao Linsen and Zheng Long, the other was called Zheng Long, the two of them were originally classmates, after introducing them to each other, we already got to know each other. Before coming to school, I already thought about it.
I took the initiative to invite my three roommates to go to the little restaurant outside the school for dinner. I called Zhao Feng up as well, I really wanted to make a few friends, but when we were eating, everyone would casually chat. When Glasses-man secretly asked me if Zhao Feng was my girlfriend, I said that she was just a classmate, and my eyes lit up. Zhao Feng is actually quite handsome. Although she is not as pretty as Shen Yiran, her figure is still better, and I have eaten this meal very happily. I have never interacted with so many of my classmates in such a harmonious manner before, and I feel that coming to this school is pretty good as well.
After dinner, Zhao Feng invited me to take a walk in the campus, and Zhao Feng and I casually walked around. This school is quite big, and the environment isn’t bad, so as we walked, Zhao Feng extended her hand and grabbed onto my arm. The night wind ruffled Zhao Feng’s hair, and her skirt fluttered in the wind.
We walked for a long time without speaking. Zhao Feng cutely leaned on me and we quietly enjoyed this tranquility … …
