Chen Zikun did not go home, but went to Xiong Mansion.
When he thanked Xiong Xiling in person and borrowed the car, he did not hide anything.
He said that a friend had committed a crime and was wanted, and he needed to use Mr.
Xiong's reputation as a cover.
When he escaped from Beijing, Xiong Xiling was also a temperamental person and agreed without even asking a question.
Seeing Chen Zikun coming to express his thanks, Xiong Xiling asked with a smile: "Is your dear friend safe and sound?"
Chen Zikun said: "Thanks to Mr.
Xiong, we have left Beijing safely."
Xiong Xiling nodded, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest."
Chen Zikun stood up and said goodbye.
The butler sent him out.
When he came back, he asked: "Master, why don't you ask him who helped him?
If it is a gangster, wouldn't we be implicated?"
Xiong Xiling stroked his beard and said with a contented smile: "How can you ordinary people understand the friendship between gentlemen?"
After coming out of the Xiong Mansion, Chen Zikun went straight to the Liushu Hutong courtyard outside Xuanwu Gate.
Everyone gathered here to discuss rescuing Zhao Dahai.
Dahai's father and mother were frowning, and his wife hid in the house and cried non-stop.
The youngest son didn't shed a single tear.
Don't fall off, like a little man.
After asking, I found out that today everyone went to the detention center to visit the prisoner.
The police said that Zhao Dahai was a wanted criminal and they were not allowed to visit him or give him a bed or blanket.
Too bad, there The ones on duty are a group of jailers left over from the former Qing Dynasty.
Their ability to bully prisoners is extraordinary.
Even the condemned prisoners cannot escape their exploitation.
If they don't give them some benefits, they will collude with the executioners to chop more times, so that the condemned prisoners will not be able to escape.
Even death must be tortured.
As for ordinary prisoners, there are even more ways to exploit them.
All your belongings will be confiscated and will be gone when you come out.
During your detention, food and bedding must be provided by your family, but of course they may not be in the hands of the prisoner. , good food and drink are all filial piety, and these gentlemen will consider changing the prisoner to a sunny or drier cell.
In short, they have many ways to make you willing to pay.
This time, they were not allowed to visit the prison, which showed that Ma Laowu had said hello in advance that Zhao Dahai would be tortured inside.
Therefore, the Zhao family and neighbors were very worried.
No matter how strong a man was in a prison like the detention center, he would be tortured into inhuman form. , the sea is in trouble this time, and even if it doesn’t die, it will shed its skin.
Chen Zikun brought good news.
Ma Laowu had been dismissed from his post and investigated.
There was a commotion in the compound.
Uncle Xue tapped the sole of his shoe with his pipe and said, "Let's go visit the prison."
The visiting team consisted of Dahai's daughter-in-law, Gou Sheng, Xue Pingshun and Chen Zikun.
Carrying bedrolls, they went to the alley entrance to buy two cans of fifty-pack mid-range cigarettes, and also bought some meats such as cooked beef and soy pork elbows.
Went to the detention center.
The news of Ma Laowu's dismissal and investigation spread quickly.
The detention center has already received the news.
These guys are very snobbish.
The fifth master's words immediately stopped counting.
Of course, he still refused to let go, saying that Zhao Dahai was the superior.

Key criminals who were told to be strictly controlled were not allowed to visit.
After Xue Pingshun said all his good things, the jailers collected the cigarettes and extorted a few dollars, a ferocious-looking guy took them to visit with a bunch of keys.
The detention center used cells from the former Qing Dynasty, a damp and low dungeon with no daylight.
The cells on both sides were dark, with thatch covering the ground vaguely visible.
The prisoners were huddled in the corner, unkempt and shapeless.
Some prisoners had been there since the Guangxu period.
Squatting here, neither transferred to a regular prison nor released, just waiting to die in the detention center.
Zhao Dahai was imprisoned in a large cell, and it seemed that he did not suffer much.
The prisoners were in awe of him.
When they saw Brother Dahai's relatives coming to visit the prison, they all shrank in the corner in awe.
Relatives met with tears in their eyes.
Gou Sheng also rubbed his eyes and cried out, "Daddy."
Zhao Dahai was a hero, chatting and laughing: "Why are you crying?
It's not like I've been sentenced to death.
I'll go out tomorrow and provide you with bedding.
It's a waste."
Xue Pingshun said: "Haidai, don't worry, we will go to the police station tomorrow to clear the situation so that you can come out early."
Zhao Dahai said: "Thank you for your trouble."
After the visit, everyone felt more at ease and slept soundly.
Early the next morning, Xue Pingshun and Chen Zikun went to the police station again to try to rescue Zhao Dahai.
Ordinarily, Zhao Dahai had no clear charges and should not be imprisoned at all.
Moreover, the instigator Ma Laowu has been dismissed from his post.
This matter should be easy to handle, but it is not the case.
Although Ma Laowu has been dismissed, his connections are still there.
In addition, the police officers are all ordinary people, and they can shirk and delay the duties assigned by them.
What's more, it is a case that cannot be solved with eight sticks.
No one pays attention to them at all. , Xue Pingshun put his old face aside, and finally found an inspector who could speak to him.
After asking, he found out that no one cared about this matter at all, and no formalities were followed when arresting people.
To release them, they had to go to Ma Lao Wu.
Looking for Ma Laowu to release him is not seeking the skin of a tiger.
Xue Pingshun and Chen Zikun were anxiously running around, and they rushed to the doctor because of their illness.
Chen Zikun took out Xiong Xiling's business card and wanted to try his luck, but he didn't know that the police officer didn't accept this at all and kept talking in an official tone.
Said: "Even if Mr.
Xiong comes here in person, we police officers will not dare to engage in malpractice for personal gain."
Since ancient times, yamen has been a dirty place where no one can come in if they have no money and no reason.
No matter how clean your official position is, the officials are as slippery as oil.
This group of patrolmen has inherited the wisdom of the yamen petty officials who have exploited the people for thousands of years.
If they don't show something, If you come with hard goods, you will never get anything done.
"I'll save Brother Dahai no matter what I say."
Chen Zikun said harsh words.
However, Zhao Dahai's family was in poverty, and the neighbors in the courtyard were also very poor.
There was no money to take care of it.
This heavy burden still fell on Chen Zikun. shoulders.
I went back to Ziguang Automobile Factory to collect money.
I took out all the cash in the cabinet and it was still not enough.

I had no choice but to use my magic weapon and pawn it.
A pawn shop is a place for emergencies.
Everything from imported bells to mink coats to tattered cotton-padded jackets to tattered leather shoes can be exchanged for money.
The current period ranges from three months to one and a half years.
If you don't redeem it at the end of the period, you will die.
Of course, the things owned by the pawnshop are actually equivalent to a kind of mortgage loan, but they are lower-level than those taken care of by banks and banks.
Chen Zikun had two foreign cars taken to the pawn shop, and they only got one hundred yuan in exchange for them.
The foreign cars he bought for one hundred and twenty dollars could only be pawned for fifty yuan each.
This is the dark side of the pawn shop.
Of course, it can be redeemed when redeemed.
Not only this price, but at least five yuan should be paid to them.
"Two more cars" Chen Zikun has no hesitation, even if he sells iron, he will fish out Brother Dahai.
While Chen Zikun was busy raising money and recruiting people, a special examination was being held on the Peking University campus.
The examination attracted countless students and professors, and even the president Cai Yuanpei was alarmed.
This exam originated from a bet between Professor Gu Hongming and his students at the end of last semester.
He promised to use the winter vacation to improve a rickshaw puller's Latin level from blank to no less than that of a college student.
Later, the bet was expanded to In liberal arts, Hu Shi, Liu Shipei, Huang Kan and others all joined in, and there was also another experimental subject who was also a rickshaw puller.
Another rickshaw puller is Xu Er.
Driven by Dayang and Cuilian, Xu Er can be said to have had his head hung up and his buttocks stabbed, and his energy for the wedding was exhausted in advance.
He read and studied day and night, and Master Xu not only gave him a holiday , and also taught him homework with his classmates Fu Sinian and Luo Jialun.
After a winter vacation, Xu Er felt that his stomach was already filled with ink.
The exam was held in a classroom in the Red Building.
Two tables were placed in the center of the classroom.
There were two test papers on the table, one for Chinese and one for foreign language.
However, there were slight differences.
Xu Er took the test in vernacular and Chinese, while Chen Zikun took the test in classical Chinese. and Latin, the test papers are jointly developed by professors from Peking University, taking into account the fun of gambling and the level of the candidates, and the test questions are not too difficult.
The exam time is coming, but only one candidate is present.
Xu Er is sitting behind the desk wearing a long gown and spectacle frames, looking very serious and proud.
The table next to him is still empty.
Chen Zikun has not come yet.
The onlookers are a little impatient.
Gu Hongming also keeps looking at his pocket watch and complains in his heart.
This Xiao Chen really has no sense of time.
He clearly knows that there is an exam today, so why doesn't he come?
.
Liu Shipei was also very anxious.
He knew Chen Zikun's level.
Not to mention this simple test paper, even the Peking University entrance exam, Chen Zikun could easily pass it, so he was sure to win this gamble, but if no one came, It doesn’t matter how well you study.
Lin Wenjing in the crowd was even more anxious, secretly wondering why uncle didn't come, could something have happened?
Seeing that the time was coming, Liu Shipei raised his hand and said: "I propose that the exam time be postponed for half an hour and wait for another candidate."
Some college students started to make noises, but Cai Yuanpei, the examiner, said: "Okay, we will postpone it for half an hour."
Time passed by, and people glanced at the clock on the wall from time to time.
Half an hour came quickly, and Chen Zikun hadn't arrived yet.
Liu Shipei raised his hand again: "I hope it will be postponed for another twenty minutes."
This time Cai Yuanpei did not agree: "If the examinee was late for the rural examination in ancient times, if he dared to ask Uncle Shen, Gongyuan would postpone the examination time for him alone."

Liu Shipei was speechless.
Cai Yuanpei added: "Of course, this exam is not a formal exam.
It can be done online.
If the candidate comes late, I will allow him to enter."
So, the exam began.
Sometimes Xu Er wrote furiously, sometimes holding the pen in his mouth as if thinking hard, he stole the show in full view of the public.
At this time, Chen Zikun was still busy in the Jingshi Detention Center.
The two hundred yuan spent was indeed effective.
Zhao Dahai was finally released.
However, the silver-shell Hamilton pocket watch given by Zhan Tianyou among his belongings disappeared. , asked the jailer, only to get an impatient scolding: I have never seen a pocket watch before, and I came here to blackmail people without even looking at where this place is.
Chen Zikun wanted to beat him up on the spot, but Zhao Dahai grabbed him and said, "Da Kunzi, calm down."
He dragged him away.
"Exercise" the jailer glared at them fiercely, his pocket watch chain flashing silver.
On the way back, Chen Zikun suddenly thought that today was the day of the Peking University exam.
This exam not only related to the income of several hundred yuan, but also related to the face of two teachers, Gu Hongming and Liu Shipei.
He had to go no matter what.
Seeing that there was still time, he said to Xue Pingshun and Zhao Dahai: "You go back first, I have something to do."
As soon as he finished speaking, the people disappeared as if they were flying.
In the Red Building of Peking University, the exam has been going on for a long time, and it will end in ten minutes.
Another candidate will probably not show up, and even if he comes, he will not be able to complete the test paper.
Therefore, this exam, this gamble, will end in the end.
The New Culture Movement was victorious.
Gu Hongming, Liu Shipei and others looked a little ugly.
They thought they had a chance to win, but they fell short.
Although it was just a fun gamble, it also implied a struggle between the old school and the new culture school, so the stakes were very high, otherwise they would not have known it.
Spend so much time teaching a coachman.
Just when everyone was sure that Xu Er would win, suddenly the classroom door opened, and Chen Zikun appeared at the door panting: "I'm sorry, everyone, I'm late."
His whole body looked like he had been fished out of a water tank.
His face was covered with sweat, and mist was steaming from his head.
He had also taken off his coat and was only wearing a close-fitting jacket.
He looked like an athlete who had just finished a marathon.
Cai Yuanpei reminded: "The exam time is almost over.
Are you sure you want to continue the exam?"
Chen Zikun walked straight to the table and sat down.
He winked at the astonished Xu Er, and then said loudly: "Of course I have to take the test.
Please give me another pen."
No one knew what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, but a female classmate stood out from the crowd, took out a fountain pen and said, "Use mine."
Taking the red celluloid fountain pen that still had body temperature handed over by the lover in his dream, Chen Zikun nodded gratefully to Lin Wenjing, placed the Latin test paper next to his left hand, held a pencil in his right hand, and did the Chinese test questions, and held it in his left hand.
When doing Latin test questions with a fountain pen, you can draw the bow from left to right, and the pen will move like a dragon or a snake.
For a moment, there was silence in the classroom, and everyone from the principal Cai Yuanpei to the servant who brought tea was stunned
