Chapter 1027 1026. Black Police (55)
In the middle of the night, Li Du was awakened by the raindrops pattering on the window, as if it was about to shatter glass.
This heavy rain is menacing. It is the first rain since spring in South Africa. If divided according to the climate of the dry season and the rainy season, its coming means that the land has come to the rainy season.
Li Du got up and looked outside, thunder and lightning combined with heavy rain, it was really bad weather, fortunately they didn't live in tents, otherwise the heavy rain would have washed away the tents.
With the sound of rain, he fell asleep again.
I don't know how long it took, Ah Miao and Ah Ao yelled, the voice was not too loud, it sounded aggrieved: "Hey, hey, hey."
Li Du rubbed his eyes and got up, turned on the flashlight to see what was going on.
If the two little guys call out like this, it means they have encountered something that makes them feel unhappy.
The light shone on the ground, and he saw some stagnant water appearing. The four little guys huddled together, looking dissatisfied at their wet paws.
Brother Xiaopingtou was sleeping soundly. The cold rain made him feel a little uncomfortable, so he shook his head and fell asleep with his head held high. Anyway, he was still sleeping.
There is no doubt that this is rainwater pouring into the house.
Li Du got out of bed to take a look. Brother Lang woke up and said, "Make a water diversion canal and drain the water. Boss, you go on sleeping, I'll take care of it."
It was the right choice for him to hire Brother Lang. Brother Lang is very responsible, as long as he can handle anything, he will never trouble others.
Li Du knew Brother Lang's temper, so he didn't say much and went back to bed.
This became a small episode at night, and it was still raining when I woke up the next day, the rain was slightly reduced, but it was still a heavy rain.
The other houses were all wet, and people poured water out of small buckets and basins, and they were very busy.
Li Du's house has drainage channels. Except for occasional manual drainage, a cycle is formed at other times, and the rainwater that comes in will be drained from the corner of the house.
This is the first time he has experienced the African rainy season. The rain seems to be free of money, splashing down.
Looking at the heavy rain falling from the sky and the earthy mountains not far away, Li Du was very worried about the occurrence of mudslides. If this thing appeared, it would really be the end of the game.
Fortunately, the heavy rain lasted for 40 to 50 hours, but the earth mountain remained motionless.
The rain stopped at noon on the third day. The heavy rain in Africa came and went quickly. One moment it was pouring, and the next moment the sun came out.
When the weather cleared, the blacks continued to work on the river.
At this time, the river surged, and the river almost doubled in width, but the black people didn't care. They rolled up their trouser legs, wore shorts, and some even went into the water with their buttocks naked.
More rapid turbulence can wash the sediment faster, which can save time to find diamonds.
Everyone here is very low-key when they find diamonds, unlike in the diamond parks in the United States, you have to shout twice when you find diamonds.
Li Du was disheartened, he was not interested in this kind of abandoned mine.
Avoiding the heavy rain, he prepared to leave.
With a few people, Li Du was going to go to Buick to say goodbye. After all, they had provided them with a house to shelter from the rain, so he had to say thank you anyway.
As a result, he walked out of the hut and saw Buick and others confronting a group of uniformed policemen by the river.
The people in the river came up continuously, and the people in the house rushed over continuously, standing behind Buick and the others.
The policeman on the opposite side waved his hands impatiently, and shouted: "Get out of here, get out of here, the rainy season is coming soon, you don't want to live anymore? The mudslides will flow down, and you will all die."
Li Du nodded. What the police said made sense. It is very dangerous here now.
The blacks didn't care and looked at the police silently. They didn't say a word, but they didn't back down either.
The policeman became more and more impatient, and said, "Get out of here quickly, come and line up for inspection, and get out after the inspection!"
A young man behind the Buick wanted to speak. He waved his hand to stop him, and then said to the policeman, "Officer, if you want us to leave, we are willing to do so. Let's go, but there is no need to check, right?"
The tall policeman gave him a contemptuous look, and said, "No need to check? Then what if you stole something from here? Except for clothes and bedding, leave everything else to me, and get out!"
Li Du originally thought that what the police said was quite right. During the rainy season, this kind of place is very dangerous.
But listening to the conversation behind them, these policemen seem to want to take away the diamonds that the black people have worked so hard to find?
A few blacks crossed the river and wanted to go ashore from the other side, but just as they were about to run, a team of policemen appeared from the woods, caught up with these blacks, knocked them to the ground, and stretched out their hands to search them.
Seeing these policemen, Buick showed anger on his face, and the others were also furious. Someone directly scolded: "He is a traitor!"
The tall black man shouted across the river: "Hey, is there any harvest?"
A black policeman laughed loudly: "It's still a job, these bastards have diamonds on them."
The black miners were not reconciled to their diamonds being robbed and struggled hard.
This aroused the dissatisfaction of several policemen, who pulled out their batons and whipped them up, beating the miners and screaming again and again.
Buick couldn't bear it anymore, he shouted to the policemen: "Scotty, are you going to do it too? Why don't you come and do it to your people?"
Others followed suit: "Scotty, you are too much."
"I should have let you be dragged away by a boa constrictor when I was a child, I shouldn't have saved you!"
"You shame the Horde! You shame the god Jibra!"
A young man with a mohawk hairstyle shouted among the police: "Be honest, Buick, you are suspected of a crime now, please cooperate with our investigation!"
The tall policeman pointed at the Buick and said, "Shut up, don't talk nonsense. Go over there, line up for inspection, hurry up, we don't have time to hang around here with you."
Buick withdrew his gaze in disappointment, then held back his anger and said, "Officer, we are not thieves, we are all nearby residents..."
"It doesn't matter if you are thieves. Come here and line up for inspection. I think you are thieves who stole diamonds." The policeman interrupted him.
A black youth shouted: "The diamonds here are ownerless, the mine has gone bankrupt, and the government declares it is ownerless."
The tall policeman went up and punched him, and sternly said, "Shut up, this is not unowned, it belongs to the state, and what you stole is state property."
The black youth wanted to resist, and several policemen drew their guns at the same time.
Seeing this, Buick hurriedly shouted: "Charlie, stop talking, squat down! You squat down!"
The policemen wanted to beat the young man, but the policemen on the other side of the river came around, the Mohegan youth Scotty said to the tall policeman: "Boss, stop beating, stop beating!"
The tall policeman gave him a sideways look and said, "What's the matter, kid?"
Scottie said: "Charlie is my brother, don't do this to him."
The tall policeman nodded and said, "Okay, for your sake, let this kid go."
