Chapter 394: Crooked Moves
In the gym, Rune was sweating on the treadmill, but Hu Bo pushed the door in and hurriedly walked towards him, looking a little helpless, and his brows were wrinkled unconsciously.
"Why is this the way it looks, what's going on?" the rune didn't stop, but asked casually.
"I contacted the poisonous scorpion before, but I haven't been able to get through to his phone, I went to the black market early this morning and didn't see his figure, the place where he lives is very thick with dust, I guess I haven't been back for a long time. Seeing that the rune didn't react, Hu Bo directly reached out and turned off the treadmill, and said, "I think there's something wrong with this matter!"
"What's the problem?" Rune didn't blame Hu Bo for turning off the treadmill without authorization, but walked down directly and picked up the towel hanging on the side, wiped his sweat and said, "Tell me about it." ”
"I think we need to be wary of the inexplicable behavior of poisonous scorpions. Hu Bo paused and said: "We have spent money, I think it is necessary for him to report the progress, at least let us know his movements!"
"You've already said several 'you think'!" Rune smiled: "Since it's just Jue, and there is no evidence, you don't have to come out of your way to tell me, what are you worried about? Are you worried that he will suddenly change his mind and not kill Bai Hao, or are you worried that he will leave just to cheat some money?" or that he has already been killed by Bai Hao?"
Rune's refreshment at the moment made Hu Bo even more entangled, although their relationship with the scorpion was only to hire and be hired, but a hired person was inexplicably gone, no matter what, shouldn't they pay attention?
The sudden loss of contact with the poisonous scorpion was very strange, and what made Hu Bo even more incomprehensible was why the rune in front of him, who was bent on killing Bai Hao, could still be so calm after hearing what he said.
"Let's just wait and see what happens, and if there is an agreed deadline, he won't be too much money. "The poisonous scorpion who felt before the rune would definitely do this for the sake of money, so at this time he still firmly believed in his instincts!
Moreover, his hatred for Bai Hao originally started with Anne, and these days Anne has been at the company and at home, and she has not deliberately acted against him, even the old man of his family did not anger him when he knew that Jack was dead, and he didn't even say a word of reproach, which made him feel very good, so he didn't care too much about whether Bai Hao would live one more day.
"I thought the scorpion was gone, and we should do the rest. Hu Bo frowned slightly, and reminded appropriately: "If there is any problem on his side, we at least have other ways to deal with it, so as not to let Bai Hao escape." ”
Hu Bo has always known that Rune is an extremely smart person and is extremely thoughtful, but he always seems to have insufficient IQ for Anne's affairs, but if Annie treats him a little bit, he will be happy to fart and can't find Bei, therefore, in the matter of hiring someone to kill Bai Hao, Hu Bo is trying to remind Rune as much as possible, just in case!
"Don't worry, you can try to contact the scorpion to see what is going on. Seeing that Hu Bo's face was still full of confusion, Rune Wen said with a smile: "We are not short of money, don't worry too much." ”
It's not about money at all......
Hu Bo knew that the runes were in a good mood these days, and he knew that as long as the runes were in a good mood, he wouldn't be able to listen to any advice, so he didn't continue to persuade him, but walked out of the door in response, he didn't take out something practical, he didn't move the runes.
But as soon as he walked out of the gym, his mobile phone suddenly rang, and the caller number was none other than a poisonous scorpion.
"Hey. Hu Bo did not hesitate and hurriedly picked it up.
"Bai Hao has left Hong Kong City, and I can't do it now. The scorpion's voice, as usual, said, "The time limit you have given me needs to be extended. ”
The poisonous scorpion made this call to extend the agreed period, in order to delay the transaction between himself and Bai Hao, he wanted to wait until the news that the cannibal flower was killed, and then kill the rune, saving himself from having no bargaining chips to exchange with Bai Hao!
From seeing Bai Hao, he knew that he was not a good stubble, but he didn't dare to completely believe the inside information about the target of the Flame List, even if Bai Hao was a person of the Flame, he shouldn't say the task so lightly...... The poisonous scorpion has been thinking about this matter, he has no bottom in his heart, he is worried that he will be swept away by Bai Haosha, and Bai will kill people for him.
Therefore, at this time, he had to extend the time with the two runes first, so that he could sit back and wait for news, after all, in his opinion, killing runes was the same as playing, and he could do it at any time, ......and he was not in a hurry!
The gym where the rune was at the moment was within the range of his sniper rifle! And the two inside obviously didn't know they were being watched!
"He's not in Port City?" Hu Bo frowned slightly, confirming again.
"Yes, I left yesterday. When the scorpion heard Hu Bo's question, he immediately showed a disdainful smile, and said with a slight sneer: "I don't even know this, no wonder you have to hire someone to kill him." ”
"I'm going to look into this first, and I'll get back to you later. Hu Bo did not directly agree to the scorpion's request to extend the time, after all, he still doesn't know Bai Hao's whereabouts, let alone what Rune thinks about it, and all decisions can only be made after Bai Hao's location is determined.
"Okay, hurry up. The scorpion didn't care if they believed what they said or not, but hung up the phone directly after saying it.
"What's wrong?" Rune raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Hu Bo, who had already gone out but retreated.
"The poisonous scorpion called to say that Bai Hao had left the port city, and he asked for an extension of the time to hunt Bai Hao. Hu Bo raised his eyebrows when he saw the rune and continued: "I'll contact him later, let's ......."
"Find out where Bai Hao went first?" Rune Wen squinted his eyes slightly when he heard this: "He actually ran away, it's really embarrassing for him to be so quiet, hurry up and check, if he really leaves Hong Kong City, be sure to find out where he went, whether he is leaving permanently, if he will come back, then extend the mission time of the scorpion, I am not afraid of waiting!"
"Yes. Seeing that the rune was in a better state, Hu Bo hurriedly left the gym and did what he told him.
Rune leaned on the treadmill and fell into contemplation, if Bai Hao left and never came back, then he naturally had no point in finding someone to hunt down Bai Hao, but if he would come back, it would always be a big hidden danger, the relationship between Anne and himself was already very stiff, and with a Bai Hao, there was no chance to ease it......
Rune's fist slammed on the treadmill, and he said unhappily: "You'd better not come back, or I want you to look good!
……………………………………………………
When Su Man pulled Bai Hao all the way down the river into the jungle that was almost uninhabited, Bai Hao seemed to have guessed the reason for her sudden excitement before.
The ground is very soft, and since this is not a trail, the grass grows so lush that there is hardly a trace of dirt or footprints, and occasionally you see a stone covered with moss, and there are mushrooms growing under the tree, and the air is very humid and comfortable.
"Look at the tree. Suman pointed to an old tree on a large slope that was almost tilted at 90 degrees, and said, "The moss that grows on that tree can make illusions, and we should use it!"
"Oh?" Bai Hao looked in the direction of Su Man's finger and couldn't help but squint.
He had seen the records of this kind of tree and moss in the old man's carefully recorded accompanying notes before, and it was even more interesting to see the real thing at this moment, and he couldn't help but praise Su Man from the bottom of his heart: "My little daughter-in-law is amazing, I know this." ”
"I've seen my master use it before. Su Man let go of Bai Hao as he spoke, and wanted to go to the tree to get moss, but Bai Hao grabbed him: "It's not elegant to climb high and go low like this, or I'll do it." ”
As he spoke, Bai Hao easily stepped on a few stones and jumped onto the trunk of the old tree, and squatted down on the mossy old trunk on the shady side.
"Be careful. Su Man reminded Bai Hao before stretching out his hand: "My master said that even if you cut your hand, you will be able to make illusions." ”
"Well, I know. ”
Even if Su Man didn't remind him, Bai Hao knew that this thing was not suitable to start directly, and the old man's notes had precautions for use, but it didn't matter to him, his body was resistant to drugs, and naturally he was resistant to these slightly toxic things.
Seeing Bai Hao directly remove the moss with his hand and return to her, Su Man couldn't help but look Bai Hao up and down: "Are you okay?"
"It's fine. Bai Hao shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "The illusion is because of the toxic function contained in this moss, my body is anti-poisonous, it doesn't matter at all, but it's ......"
Bai Hao deliberately dragged out the tail note, and stretched out the hand holding the moss to Su Man, and when the latter subconsciously dodged, he pulled the person back into his arms with his other hand: "I'm reluctant to try it on you, it's a pity for this little thing!"
"If you want to know anything, just ask, you don't need moss. Su Man snorted heavily, expressing helplessness at Bai Hao's indecency that would suddenly erupt from time to time.
"I didn't want to ask anything...... Bai Hao raised his eyebrows, deliberately leaned into Su Man's ear ambiguously, and said in a dumb voice: "Actually...... I wanted to do something!"
"You can do something tonight, but it's not you and me who can do it, let me go to the meeting at night. Su Man smiled confidently, looked at the moss in Bai Hao's hand, and then said, "Didn't you say that he has a woman he likes, it's just an opportunity!"
"Well, that makes sense!" Bai Hao squinted and smiled, appreciating Su Man's crooked move that suddenly came to mind.
Bai Hao knew that his little daughter-in-law's thoughts always coincided with his own, from the moment he saw this kind of moss, he knew that Su Man had thought of using a crooked trick, since he already knew that Tianqin liked his instigator, and the person behind the scenes happened to be a woman, they could just use the effect of moss to make illusions to ask the whereabouts of the jade!
This is a no-brainer, no need to use it in vain!
