Chapter 504: Assassination
The opportunity came from Wu Xiaozhi's mouth.
Tan Wu has been paying attention to Wu Can's whereabouts recently, so when he gets along with Wu Xiaozhi every day, he will always listen to Wu Can's news from her intentionally or unintentionally.
And when Wu Xiaozhi was feeding him that night, she casually mentioned, "My brother is going to the city tonight to exorcise evil spirits, and when he left, Xiaochen cried again! Heh, Xiaochen is always so clingy to my brother, every time my brother goes out, she always cries!"
Xiaochen is Wu Xiaozhi's niece and Wu Can's six-year-old daughter.
Wu Xiaozhi just casually mentioned this matter, but the speaker had no intention, the listener had a heart, Tan Wu's heart moved, and he pretended to ask casually: "Hehe, is it? When did it happen? Just go to the city, my cousin should be back soon, right?"
Wu Xiaozhi replied with a light smile: "Yes! I just left for a while, I should be able to come back before twelve o'clock in the evening, Xiaochen doesn't know, she just sticks to my brother, and likes to cry every time he goes out!
Tan Wu chuckled and agreed, not asking too many questions, for fear of arousing Wu Xiaozhi's suspicion afterwards.
But he already felt it was a rare opportunity.
As for where Wu Can will go to the city tonight and what time he will come back, he feels that he doesn't need to ask, because Wu Xiaozhi has just said that Wu Can should come back before twelve o'clock tonight, and there are several sections of the road back from the city that must be passed! He only needs to stay by one of the roads, and if nothing happens, he should be able to wait until Wu Can comes back.
Since Wu Can has just set off......
Thinking of this, Tan Wu had another thought in his heart.
A few minutes later, when Wu Xiaozhi fed him the last mouthful of soup and wiped his mouth with a tissue, Tan Wu suddenly held her hand holding the tissue and said to Wu Xiaozhi softly: "Cousin, I like you!"
Wu Xiaozhi: "......"
Caught off guard, Wu Xiaozhi's cheeks quickly turned red, and he was retracted by the right hand he held as if he was being electrocuted, and he subconsciously stood up, wanting to turn around and leave, and he looked a little reluctant, very entangled.
Tan Wu sat there "stunned" and said "disappointed": "Cousin, what's the matter? Don't you like me?"
"No, cousin, I, you......"
Wu Xiaozhi subconsciously denied it, but when it came to his mouth, he couldn't say it, and he was even more at a loss for a while, and his face was extremely red.
Tan Wu's face was happy, and he said happily: "Okay! Okay! I understand! I understand! Cousin! You don't have to answer me immediately, you can go back and think about it, and tell me tomorrow or the day after tomorrow or later! I'm in a hurry!
Wu Xiaozhi looked slightly happy when he heard this, breathed a sigh of relief, and left a sentence with a red face: "Then I'll go first! Good night cousin!"
"Good night, cousin!" Tan Wu replied softly.
Wu Xiaozhi glanced at him one last time with shame and joy, picked up the tray on the table and walked quickly.
When her footsteps walked away, the smile on Tan Wu's face disappeared little by little, he was not in a hurry to go out, he was not in a hurry to serve tea, pour water, and drink tea.
As time passed, he took the golden sword leaning against the base of the wall and wiped it slowly with a towel, if his eyes were still there, there should be a murderous motive in his eyes at this time.
waited until more than nine o'clock in the evening, when he was sure that the whole Wu family should have rested, and there was no other sound in the Wu family's compound except for the faint sound of insects, so he suddenly put his sword into the sheath, got up and went out.
Under the faint moonlight, Tan Wu took a few steps against the root of the courtyard wall, and suddenly jumped on the wall, jumped out of the courtyard without looking back, and the whole figure quickly disappeared into the night.
By the time he left the town, his outfit had changed.
Before coming out of the town, he took advantage of the darkness of night to touch into a house, touched a black trench coat and big scalp shoes to put on his body, and found a brown fisherman's hat and sunglasses from another house to put on.
Not only that, but all the clothes inside his trench coat have been changed.
He did this, not only to prevent being recognized by Wu Can, but also to prevent Wu Blind from being tracked down by Tianyantong afterwards.
He didn't know how powerful Tianyantong was, and the way he could think of a defense was to disguise himself.
……
Night, ten o'clock.
On a highway, a black Mercedes-Benz car was driving smoothly, and Wu Can, who was wearing a black cloth coat and cloth shoes, folded his hands on his thighs, and sat in the back seat of the car with his eyes closed.
The driver was the old driver of the Wu family, Zhang Yishui, who was over fifty years old.
Zhang Yishui is an old man who has been driving for Wu Can since he was a child, not only that, but his wife used to be Wu Can's wet nurse, because of these two reasons, Zhang Yishui won the trust of the Wu family's father and son.
Now his only daughter is also working for the Wu family, it can be said that Zhang Yishui's family of three lives on the Wu family, and they are not like relatives but relatives.
Therefore, Zhang Yishui and Wu Can get along a bit casually, for example, at this time, he chatted with Wu Can while driving.
"Chairman Wang's daughter should be fine tonight, right? That girl is only a teenager, and she is pitiful!"
"Well, it's okay! A small problem, some time ago, the girl was scared outside and lost her soul, I have already recruited her back, and when she rests for a few days, her soul is stable, and she will naturally return to normal!"
Wu Can closed his eyes and replied.
"That's good! That's good!" Zhang Yishui smiled on his face, and then concentrated on driving.
Seeing that he would be home in half an hour, his mood also became slightly relaxed.
The speed of the car was steady, and Wu Can leaned on the back seat with a calm expression.
Everything was nothing abnormal, but suddenly, his eyes opened, although his eyes were gray and lackluster, his face suddenly turned solemn, and he suddenly said: "Stop!
The sound was very loud, Zhang Yishui was stunned, and before he could react, he had heard a strange sound on the hillside on the right side of the road, Zhang Yishui subconsciously stepped on the accelerator, and turned his face urgently to look, but saw a huge mountain rock rolling, rolling down from the hillside violently, Zhang Yishui did not have any cultivation, seeing this scene, he was so shocked that his heartbeat was about to stop for a while, his face turned white, and he didn't dare to scream out when he screamed to the side of his throat.
By the time he could react and try to speed up the car, the boulder had already crashed into the waist of their car with a thud.
Zhang Yishui was probably very unlucky today, the boulder smashed the two side window glasses, and several of them were accepted by him who couldn't dodge, and one of them shot into his temple, Zhang Yishui's eyes suddenly became sluggish, and the whole person froze in the driver's seat.
At the same time, the door on the other side of the back seat was suddenly kicked out, and Wu Can's black figure jumped, like a leopard, jumped out of the car and tumbled to the ground outside the car.
