Chapter 877: The words are clear
Ming Chuan didn't think that this Gong Wancheng would kindly tell him the secret here, but he still wanted to hear what the other party planned to say.
"Do you and your friends think that I built this place on purpose?" asked Gong Wancheng.
"Isn't it?" asked Ming Chuan rhetorically.
"Hehe, this place is indeed built on purpose, but it's just ......" Gong Wancheng said, dragging out the end of the note, glanced at Ming Chuan, and said with a smile, "It's not my idea to arrange this place like this." ”
Speaking of this, Gong Wancheng paused slightly, and then added: "Of course, it's not a gorgeous idea. ”
"Are you trying to tell me that there are other people behind you?" Ming Chuan's face did not show the slightest surprise.
"Looks like you've guessed it. Seeing Ming Chuan's face, Gong Wancheng said with a smile.
"Originally, it was just speculation, but after coming into close contact with you, I was able to confirm it. Ming Chuan said calmly, "You are not an exorcist, so it is impossible for you to be so familiar with these things." ”
Ming Chuan has long speculated that there may be someone else behind this Gong Wancheng, or the manipulator behind him, or the "military advisor" who helped him give advice.
Whether it is the mastermind behind the scenes or the "military advisor" who gives advice, this person must have something to do with ghosts and other things, or a human being who is changing ghosts, or a ghost exorcist like him, or a rune master and magic circle master like Dahua who doesn't know how to exorcise ghosts but is particularly knowledgeable in some aspects - these two titles are made up by Mingchuan himself, but there are indeed such people, and there are many specially trained rune masters in the Gaoshan family. Circle masters, after all, the number of exorcists is limited, and they are restricted by congenital conditions, and cultivating one is an unavoidable thing.
No matter which one it is, this person will definitely be contaminated with some ghost energy, it's just a matter of degree, but Ming Chuan will definitely be able to sense it.
Ming Chuan looked at Gong Wancheng, he had been observing this man for a few days, and he had not seen a similar figure beside him.
"You're so much smarter than you seem. Gong Wancheng laughed, his face was wrinkled one by one, and said, "I like to deal with smart people, and it is more time-saving and labor-saving to speak." ”
Gong Wancheng's smile was like that of an old fox, with endless cunning, and at the same time with the greed and ruthlessness of a jackal.
He sat on the chair, looking at Ming Chuan with his legs crossed, and his smiling eyes made people feel very uncomfortable.
"When I heard that someone was checking the restaurant, I thought I had heard it wrong. Gong Wancheng said, "Thinking about which person who is not long-eyed would suspect Yanli's head, this must be a misunderstanding." But I'm still a little worried, so I ran back to take a look. ”
"I don't hesitate to put down the big business that is being negotiated and rush back, it seems that Boss Gong really doesn't care about Boss Sun. Ming Chuan said lightly, paused slightly, looked at the other party's eyes, and said with a smile, "Or, it's not Boss Sun that you care about." ”
"Young man, are you trying to test me?" said Gong Wancheng with a smile. When he laughs, the corners of his mouth rise, and at the same time he purses his lower lip, making his face look like an enlarged mouse, not at all like the bookish air of Sven when he first met.
Gong Wancheng laughed a few times, suddenly put away his smile, the look on his face became ruthless, pressed the cigarette butt in his hand vertically into the ashtray on the table, turned it hard, pressed the cigarette butt out, and then raised his head, looked at Ming Chuan, and said coldly: "I advise you, young man, I don't care what kind of exorcist you are or something else, if you continue to investigate, it will not be good for you." You take my words to heart, go back and talk to your police officer friend as well, and if you don't want to get into trouble, you'd better stop early. ”
"Trouble?" Ming Chuan was not frightened by the other party's threat, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "What kind of trouble are you referring to?"
"You should know it in your heart. Gong Wancheng leaned back as he spoke, leaned his whole back on the chair, and stared at Mingchuan with a smile of "You should know it, don't pretend to be garlic there".
At this time, Mingchuan decided to pretend to be stupid to the end, looked at him with an ignorant look, and said, "What are you talking about? What do I understand?"
"Pretending to be stupid?" Gong Wancheng narrowed his eyes, his eyes showing a fierce light, "Okay, I'll make it clear to you today, and it will save you from always pretending to be stupid." ”
Gong Wancheng paused as he spoke, raised his head and looked at Ming Chuan, with obvious scrutiny and threat in his eyes.
Ming Chuan was unmoved.
Gong Wancheng glanced at the corners of his mouth slightly, hugged his hands in front of his chest, and said in a posture of elders to juniors: "The young man is really a newborn calf, who is not afraid of tigers, and he will not shed tears when he sees the coffin." Okay, for the sake of you and I knowing each other, I'll give you a thorough explanation, don't look back and say that I didn't take care of you, brother. ”
Listening to the other party's half-threatening and half-caring words, Ming Chuan only felt a little funny, this guy has been in the society for a long time, do you think that he is the same as those gangsters, he can be shocked by a few bluffs like this?
I don't know if I saw Ming Chuan's thoughts, or if Ming Chuan's slightly contemptuous expression stung the other party, Gong Wancheng's face didn't look good, he snorted coldly, and said: "The person who taught me to decorate this restaurant back then is not small, and it is not something that a nobody like you can afford to provoke." ”
"Oh, what's the matter?" asked Ming Chuan, curious.
"Don't ask about this, don't worry, I didn't lie to you, and I didn't exaggerate, you really can't afford to mess with that person. If you anger him, not only you, but your detective friend will have to walk around without eating. Gong Wancheng raised his legs very high, and while speaking, he also stumbled, looking like he had completely lost his previous energy, and the appearance of the old gangster was fully displayed.
"I know you didn't lie to me. For Gong Wancheng's words, Ming Chuan still believes eighty percent, and he now understands that the reason why Gong Wancheng hurried back after learning that someone was investigating the restaurant was not because he was worried about Sun Yanli, he was worried about the restaurant itself.
Gong Wancheng was worried that the magic circle against the five elements laid by the master behind him was destroyed, which affected his master's "business".
Of course, these are Mingchuan's own speculations, but judging from the current attitude and rhetoric of the other party, it should be about the same.
From this point of view, this Gong Wancheng's attitude towards Sun Yanli is relatively cold, and they are like ordinary friends with each other, but they are a little more ambiguous and ambiguous than friends, and they seem to be able to explain it clearly. The two of them are not lovers, but a kind of so-called "complicity".
