The car is parked on the side of the road.

After I got out of the car.

They watched as Shen Zuo left with Wu Wanyue.

Then, I went to the place Qian Sheng had told me to go.

Heading to a remote village in the eastern part of the city.

Near the urban village, there is an old bridge that has stood for a long time.

Because it is the dry season, the water flow under the bridge is very small.

The archway under the bridge is a suitable place for some homeless people to sleep.

When I arrived near this bridge.

It was around 5 p.m.

It wasn't completely dark yet.

But there was hardly anyone around.

But I could see two or three homeless people crawling into the bridge arch.

These homeless people probably saw that I was dressed like a normal person.

But I'm very interested in their bridge arches.

Therefore, they all looked at me with wary eyes.

I took the initiative to approach someone and asked, "Hello."

The homeless man in front of me was disheveled and filthy.

He saw that I took the initiative to greet him.

The response was rude: "What?"

I said, "I want to ask you if a man named Lü Tie lives under this bridge?"

The other person showed a strange expression.

"What do you want with Lao Lü?"

Hear the other person's reply.

I knew there was a chance.

That gambling addict must live under this bridge.

I reached into my pocket and felt around.

Then he pulled out a 20-yuan note.

It was handed directly to the other party.

"I need to see him about something private, could you please arrange a meeting?"

I smiled and said to him.

The result was unexpected.

The other party bluntly replied, "20 yuan? You think you can give me a beggar's money?"

I was stunned for three seconds.

Looking at the other person's tattered clothes and disheveled appearance.

Moreover, they lived in a bridge archway.

I never expected him to be so arrogant.

They wouldn't even look down on something that costs 20 yuan.

Left with no other choice, I had to rummage through my pockets again.

These days, very few people carry loose change.

The little money I had on me was what I asked Shen Zuo and Wu Wanyue for before I got off the bus.

It's meant to be used in a critical moment.

"Here, I only have 50 yuan left. You get this much, or you don't."

The other person glared at me intently.

Then he grabbed the 50-yuan note from my hand with his dark, black hands.

After taking him away, he sneered, "Old Lu went gambling. You wait here; he should be back later."

Went gambling again?

Where would Lü Tie get the money to gamble?

Could it be that he inherited 50 million?

I asked, "Does Lü Tie gamble every day?"

Maybe it was the magic of the 70 yuan I gave him.

So he was willing to talk to me a little more.

"Old Lu is a big gambler. He has to play a few rounds every day. He feels uncomfortable if he doesn't gamble for a day."

I was stunned for a moment, then pressed on, "Where did he get so much money to support his gambling every day?"

Upon hearing this, the other party simply sneered.

"We're all very curious. Old Lu lives under a bridge every day, just like me. He's penniless, so we don't know where he gets the money to gamble every day!"

"But I heard that Lao Lü used to be rich, so maybe he borrowed money from his old friends to gamble."

The other party's explanation was not very convincing to me.

So I continued, "Where does he usually gamble?"

The other person said, "Look, the nearest village has a casino, and many wealthy people from the city go to great lengths to come here to gamble."

“Those of us who live under the bridge usually make a living by squatting at the entrance of the casino and picking up the money given to us by the rich.”

"Some people who have a lot of money, are good at their luck, or want to turn their lives around through gambling will eventually put their money on the gambling table."

I secretly noted down the location of the casino that the other party mentioned.

at this time.

The other person suddenly stared at me and then smiled.

"You didn't come here to collect a debt, did you?"

I smiled when I heard that.

They did not admit it.

There was no denial.

But from the other person's perspective, he believed that what he had just said was correct.

"A lot of people have been looking for Lao Lü lately."

"You're not the first, but you won't be the last either."

“We all advised Lao Lü to stop gambling, but he kept saying every day that he would definitely turn things around.”

"As a result, he gambled every day and lost every day."

“I’ve also observed him, and I don’t know where his gambling funds come from.”

"But that's the strange thing, it's like someone is lending him money to gamble every day."

Someone is borrowing money.

Let him gamble every day?

This was an unintentional remark from the other party.

This immediately aroused my suspicion.

Is it really possible that someone lends money to Lü Tie every day?

If it really exists.

So who would be the person borrowing the money?

What is the other party's purpose in doing this?

........

I waited on the bridge until almost 8 p.m.

Before I got sleepy from waiting.

I finally saw a middle-aged man who looked like Lü Tie walking towards me.

The man swayed unsteadily, carrying a bottle of liquor in his hand, reeking of alcohol and having drunk a lot.

When he walked onto the bridge.

I took the initiative to walk up and greet him: "Lü Tie?"

The other person heard me call him.

He immediately stopped in his tracks: "You know me?"

Lu Tie sobered up a bit.

But he was still not fully conscious.

I asked, "Do you know Gu Yao?"

When the name "Gu Yao" was mentioned.

Lu Tie was seven-tenths sober.

Followed by.

Lu Tie's face was turning pale at a visible speed.

"Who are you?

"What do you mean by contacting me at this time of year?"

"I...I...I really have no money left!"

"I've already handed over that money, why are you still bothering me?"

Lu Tie looked at me with a face full of panic, as if he were looking at a very terrifying person.

Lu Tie's reaction immediately made me suspicious.

Why did Lü Tie react so strongly when he heard "Gu Yao"?

Could it be that Gu Yao really threatened Lü Tie?

Or rather, they took all 50 million yuan of the inheritance from Lü Tie.

I saw how terrified Lü Tie was.

He intended to simply go along with the situation and play the villain to the very end.

First, we need to trick Lü Tie into revealing the truth.

I said, "There's a problem with the money!"

"I suspect you're hiding the truth. Now tell me everything again!"

Lu Tie was so frightened that he dropped the wine bottle in his hand to the ground.

He turned around and tried to run away.

I saw that Lü Tie was about to escape.

The other party seems so guilty; there must be something wrong.

I immediately chased after Lü Tie.

Lü Tie was already over fifty years old, and he also drank heavily every day.

This person's physical abilities are simply incomparable to mine.

In addition, I exercise regularly.

So I easily caught up with the panting Lü Tie.

I cornered Lü Tie in no time.

He can't escape now.

Finally, he collapsed to the ground in utter despair.

"Oh my god! This is outrageous! It's absolutely outrageous!"

"The fifty million never even reached my hands, so why are you all so fixated on me?!"

"If I really had fifty million, why would I still be living under a bridge?"

"I moved into a big villa in the city a long time ago!"
