The news of He Gui's release was delivered to He Mu within an hour, and he frowned and asked people to withdraw from the vicinity of the police station and stare at He Gui instead. Lin Hongwen once said that it would be fine if He Gui and Yao Shunchang both died inside, but if they came out alive, things would be endless. He Mu thought ruthlessly, anyway, He Gui's current power is not as good as before, even if he is killed secretly, it is not a big deal. But he couldn't be the master of this matter, so he went directly to China Street to find Lin Hongwen.

Lin Hongwen was depressed a lot because of Ru Ting's matter, and He Mu also asked two people to find him in order to appease him, but there was no news. When Lin Hongwen saw him, he thought that Ru Ting had news, so he stood up and went over to greet him. He Mu walked inside, saw that Xu Qingzhi was also there, and thought that Xu Qingzhi also knew about it, so he no longer covered it up, and said bluntly, "He Gui has been released." ”

Lin Hongwen looked at He Mu as if he was facing a great enemy, "What's the movement?" ”

He Mu shook his head, "He Yao went to the police station to pick him up, and then went home." After being in it for more than a month, I guess he'll have to rest for a while before he has the energy to deal with us. ”

Lin Hongwen smiled, "In business, he can't compete with us anymore, and it won't happen overnight to make a comeback, and that's not what he wants." ”

"And what does he want?" He Mu asked.

"Life", Lin Hongwen said slowly, "My life." ”

"Don't talk nonsense", Xu Qing's way.

Lin Hongwen smiled bitterly and shook his head, "He didn't come out with Yao Shunchang, it is estimated that Yao Shunchang was folded inside." The house is hollowed out, and the left and right hands are folded in it, what do you think he can do if he finds me again? ”

"Don't worry too much," He Mu said, "we have someone staring at him, even if he wants to do something, we can still get the news." ”

"It's good that he came to me", Lin Hongwen said lightly, "I can ask him where he took Ru Ting." ”

Xu Qingzhi glanced at Lin Hongwen and said, "He clearly doesn't want you to have a good time, so how can he tell you?" ”

"Yes", Lin Hongwen lowered his head slightly, looking at his palm intently, the blind man said that he was brave and aggressive, and he was good at killing, and he felt that he had no choice. And Zhou Shiying said that no matter when it comes, there is a choice. Lin Hongwen didn't know if what they said was right, but he knew that if he could think more carefully and take Ru Ting more seriously, then it would not make her life and death uncertain now.

"Hongwen", He Mu called him, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him, you won't have an accident." ”

Lin Hongwen nodded, He Mu got up to leave, Xu Qingzhi looked at Lin Hongwen with a gloomy face, and felt a little uncomfortable. Compared with Ru Ting, he and Lin Hongwen have known each other for a longer time and have a closer relationship. Although Ru Ting's matter was Lin Hongwen's fault first, it didn't make sense for him to help Ru Ting deceive him.

"Qingzhi", Lin Hongwen called him softly, "I want to go out for a walk." ”

Xu Qingzhi wanted to say that since He Gui had already come out, you should not walk around alone. But when the words came to his lips, looking at Lin Hongwen's lonely appearance, he swallowed it back in the end.

Lin Hongwen went to the restaurant where he and Ru Ting went alone, he ordered the same dishes as then, and ate a little bit of everything, he remembered that Ru Ting had said a lot to him that day, but he couldn't remember most of them, or he didn't pay attention to listening at all. He sat quietly in the dining room, thinking about Ru Ting's various things until dark.

When I returned to the trading house, I met Shen Lie coming back from going out to do business. Lin Hongwen watched him walk over from a distance, his facial features appeared and disappeared in the flickering light, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back in the winter. Six years ago, when the Boxers defeated Hulan City, He Gui's family fled to Kangjitang, when He Gui pointed to a young man in his group and said, "He is even more pitiful, he came from Hailan, Lao Maozi killed all the people in Hailan, and the water surface of Heilongjiang was full of corpses, and the water was red." He relied on his good water nature to swim to the other side, and if he didn't pass it, he died. ”

At that time, the young man's face was covered with blood, and he could not see his original appearance clearly, but could only see the general outline, just like today. Lin Hongwen lowered his head and took a deep breath, and when he raised his head again, he had already retracted his eyes, and asked calmly, "Are you back?" ”

Shen Lie nodded, the two of them entered the business house before and after, Xu Qingzhi was writing something on the desk inside, Lin Hongwen saw that there was no one in the store, so he took another oil lamp and put it on the case, "It's too dark, it hurts your eyes." ”

Xu Qingyi looked up and saw that Shen Lie had also returned, and asked with some confusion, "Why did you come back together?" ”

"I met at the door," Lin Hongwen said, "Speaking of which, Shen Lie has been here for almost a year." ”

"Well, I remember that I came after Qingming last year," Xu Qingzhi said.

"Yes, I wasn't at ease at first", Lin Hongwen said with a smile, "I didn't expect it to be a good helper, I really don't know how his previous boss was willing to let him go." ”

"I don't want to have any way", Xu Qingzhi put aside the written accounts, removed a lamp and said, "Lushun is like that, it's good that he can escape." ”

"Yes", Lin Hongwen echoed, "who has to choose, who wants to leave their hometown." ”

The two of them whispered, Lin Hongwen glanced at Shen Lie, he also happened to raise his head to look at this side, the originally three-dimensional facial features were even sharper under the shadow at this time, Lin Hongwen looked at him and smiled and said, "I discussed with your boss Xu, and it is time to give you a salary increase." ”

Shen Lie also smiled, "Then thank you boss." ”

Lin Hongwen stayed until closing, and on the way back, his back was still cold. The person who came was not good, Lin Hongwen thought that it was not a good thing for the old people to reunite after a long absence in the past few years. Du Xinzhu, He Gui, and Ma Chuansheng, one is counted as one, and one is worse than the other. I should have thought that it was not a good thing for Shen Lie to look familiar.

What the hell is he here for? Looking at Xu Qingzhi's appearance, Shen Lie should have never told him that he had fled to Kangjitang in the past. If, as he said, he really came from Lushun to beg for a living, then he would definitely tell Xu Qingzhi about it. Whether it is sympathy or close, even if Xu Qingzhi was not there back then, with this intersection, with Xu Qingzhi's temperament, he will definitely take more care of him.

But he didn't say a word about what happened back then, which is a bit abnormal. Lin Hongwen carefully recalled the incident six years ago, Shen Lie came with He Gui's family, according to He Gui, they met on the way to escape, and in the end he also followed He Gui's family. As for whether he separated from He Gui's family after that, or whether he has been working for their family, it is unknown. But if he has been doing things for He Gui all these years, and approaching Xu Qingzhi just to find out the truth of the firm, then the operation of the firm has been exposed under his nose in the past year, and who knows how many times he has secretly reported to He Gui?

The moment Lin Hongwen recognized him at the door, he remembered what he had done in the past year, and realized how much risk he had taken, and a chill came out of his heart, instantly freezing his whole body. If Shen Lie knew the slightest bit about bringing down He Gui, then it would not be He Gui but him who couldn't get out of the police station today.

Lin Hongwen was lying on the bed, sleepless, and all he was thinking about was how to get Shen Lie away. He could just say a reason and resign Shen Lie, but Xu Qingzhi would definitely not agree. If you first explain the reason to Xu Qingzhi, just based on a vague impression and some speculations back then, will Xu Qingzhi believe it? Zhou Shiying and Ru Ting, he didn't mention it, but he still had a problem in his heart. If he disregards his feelings at this time and forcibly resigns Shen Lie, I am afraid that the suspicion will be even greater from now on.

Lin Hongwen tossed and turned, and fell asleep when it was almost dawn, and his dreams were full of dead people. For a while, Du Xinzhu crawled out of the river covered in frost, and for a while, Yao Shunchang sat opposite him with a bloody hole in his chest, and for a while, Ru Ting was covered in blood and asked him why he wanted to use himself. Lin Hongwen opened his eyes suddenly, it was almost noon. The clothes on his body were soaked with cold sweat. Lin Hongwen sat up, only to feel a biting chill. Endured the cold and changed his clothes, Lin Hongwen leaned on the bed and thought about the things in his dreams, he hadn't had a nightmare for a long time, and the last time he did this was when Du Xinzhu died. In the past few years, he has handled a lot of things, but he has never had such a nightmare, he thought that he was used to it, so he was not afraid. But it turned out that it was not, after all, human life is different from other things, and there is no fear during the day, but it is too torturous to dream at night.

Lin Hongwen leaned for a while, and finally stabilized his mind, then got up and picked up and ate something. I didn't sleep for most of the night, and I kept dreaming when I fell asleep, and when the cold wind blew when I went out, Lin Hongwen felt a terrible headache. He called a car and went to the Ciyun Temple on the other side of the Tianjia pot, he had only been to this place once, and he had accompanied Zhou Shiying when it was first built a few years ago. Lin Hongwen respectfully put on the incense, and then donated a lot of sesame oil money. He looked at the pilgrims around him, wondering if they really believed in this, or if they were just trying to have peace of mind, as he was. He thought that if those gods were willing to protect him, then they would definitely not be serious gods, as long as they paid money for incense, they could be blessed by the gods and Buddhas, wouldn't the gods and Buddhas become corrupt officials? But at this time, he really hoped that they were corrupt officials, because then he could feel more at ease.

When he went back, Lin Hongwen directly asked the coachman to go to the miscellaneous market, he thought that even if Ru Ting was gone, but Sister-in-law Tian was still there, he couldn't compensate Ru Ting, at least take care of Sister-in-law Tian for her. But when he arrived at the miscellaneous market, Lin Hongwen learned that Sister-in-law Tian had not been out of the stall for more than half a month. Lin Hongwen asked Ding Si'er about the reason, and Ding Si'er said that Sister-in-law Tian didn't explain to anyone, and suddenly quit. 166 Reading Network
