Chapter 43: Straight to the Yellow Dragon

Li Yaoting looked at Chen Zikun with wide eyes, and looked incredulous: "Da Kunzi, you can do it, even the Petersburg club has been to play quietly, tell me, what is the taste of Yanma?" ”

Chen Zikun said: "When I came over, I saw a foreign girl get out of the car, combed two golden braids, wore a plain flower bragi, pure with a little wind and dust, and entered the Petersburg club opposite, but I didn't go up. ”

Li Yaoting swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "I know who you are talking about, that is the club's top brand Natasha, that is not a high-end product that ordinary people can afford, I heard that her customers are all masters with heads and faces in the concession, and they often use cars to charter nights, at this price for one night." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out two fingers: "Twenty yuan, it's so fucking expensive, it's hard to be gold-inlaid." ”

Chen Zikun smiled and said, "I haven't had anything to do recently, how about I come to you every day to play?" ”

Li Yaoting said happily: "That's a good dare, recently I helped Xiao Qisan to come over and roll the seedlings, probably want to stir up trouble, I can rest assured that you are here." ”

It wasn't until midnight that Chen Zikun returned to the Jingwu Club and was discovered by Liu Zhensheng again, but this time he didn't talk to Chen Zikun, but sighed and walked away.

At noon the next day, Chen Zikun went out again after eating, not caring about the affairs in the martial arts hall at all, everyone was busy rescuing the arrested students, and they didn't have time to care about him, and in the evening, Chen Zikun had not come back, but Nong Jinsun came angrily, and said indignantly: "This Chen Zhen, I really misjudged him." ”

Liu Zhensheng hurriedly asked, "Uncle Nong, what's the matter?" ”

Nong Jinsun said bitterly: "I saw Chen Zhen hanging around the brothel opened by the White Russians, and he also called the little hooligans in the marble room brothers, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, he took it all in, and Master Huo's legacy was not taken to heart at all." ”

Liu Zhensheng frowned, and said, "When he comes back, I will investigate this matter thoroughly, and if it is true, I will be expelled from the door." ”

Nong Jinsun calmed down his anger a little, and said: "The matter of the arrested students has eyebrows, I entrusted a big man with status in the Ministry of Industry Bureau to intercede on his behalf, and the patrol room said that as long as you pay the bail, you can release them tomorrow." ”

"Uncle Nong, you've worked hard." Liu Zhensheng's depressed mood finally felt a little better.

That night, Chen Zikun did not return all night, and did not show up until the next morning's morning exercise, and Liu Zhensheng was disappointed again.

Nong Jinsun scraped together a sum of money to pay the bail and rescued the arrested students, and when they walked into the gate of the Jingwu Society, they were greeted like a hero's triumph.

Ouyang Kai and others talked about what happened that day, those students who did not participate in the parade were filled with righteous indignation when they heard that the West Capture was shooting, and when they heard Ouyang Kai and others fighting bravely with the patrol, they were all enthusiastic, and suddenly someone asked: "Where was the fifth uncle at that time?" ”

The scene was cold for a while, and the students who participated in the parade all bowed their heads and were silent, and after a while, Ouyang Kai said: "As soon as the gun goes off, you can't see the people of the fifth uncle." ”

There was a buzz below, everyone was extremely dissatisfied with the cowardice of the fifth uncle, coupled with the fact that the fifth uncle had not seen anyone all day in recent days, and the practice had come to a standstill, and the prestige established by the Hongkou Dojo at the beginning had gradually dissipated into invisibility, replaced by disappointment and contempt.

"Ahem, go back to practice! It's too much trouble. Liu Zhensheng's majestic voice sounded, and everyone dispersed, but they gathered together again in private to discuss the various wrongs of the fifth uncle.

"God knows if he smashed the Hongkou Dojo, anyway, no one has gone in to see it." Some students said so.

"I heard that Takeshi Okada was electrocuted, not killed at all...... "Some people said mysteriously.

Several students were talking near the gate, and when they suddenly saw Chen Zikun coming back, they immediately stopped talking, and stood casually looking left and right, but did not greet him.

Chen Zikun stayed up all night near the Petersburg Club, and was sleepy, where could he take care of them, so he hurriedly walked to the dormitory, and met Situ Xiaoyan in the corridor, and the little junior sister said timidly: "Fifth senior brother, senior brother asked you to meet him." ”

"Oh, got it." Chen Zikun yawned, still walked to his room, Xiao Yan followed behind and said, "Senior brother said that you will go as soon as you come back." ”

Chen Zikun had no choice but to go to Liu Zhensheng's room, Xiao Yan followed a few steps behind, and finally mustered up the courage to ask: "Fifth Senior Brother, they said that you and those ...... Bad women mixed up, isn't it true? ”

"What do you think?" Chen Zikun asked rhetorically, and at the same time was shocked, it seems that his whereabouts have been exposed.

"I don't believe that the fifth senior brother would do that kind of thing." Xiao Yan said.

"That's not the end of it." Chen shrugged his shoulders and knocked on the door to enter Mr. Liu's office.

This time, Liu Zhensheng did not educate him bitterly, but asked straight to the point: "Chen Zhen, someone sees that you often haunt the land of fireworks and mingle with people who are not careful, I hope you can explain." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Senior brother, I have nothing to say. ”

The only bit of light in Liu Zhensheng's heart was also extinguished, he opened the drawer and took out a thin stack of banknotes and said: "Chen Zhen, you are no longer suitable to continue to stay in the Jingwu Society, you can take some money here first, it is not in vain for our senior brothers, no matter where you go, you must remember that you were once Huo Yuanjia's apprentice, and you were once a member of the Jingwu Society, don't do anything that disgraces the master's spirit in the sky." ”

Chen Zikun hesitated, but still took the banknote, bowed to Liu Zhensheng and said: "Senior brother, thank you for taking care of me these days, I still have something to do, so I won't go to the hospital to resign to the East Pavilion, goodbye." ”

Liu Zhensheng didn't expect Chen Zikun to leave so resolutely, and he didn't have the slightest nostalgic intention, he waved his hand, signaling that Chen Zikun could leave, and when he heard the sound of the door closing, he sighed, looked at the portrait of the master and said: "Master, although Chen Zhen's martial arts are high, his conduct is not good, in order to prevent him from bringing bad atmosphere to the Jingwu Society, the disciple has no choice but to do so." ”

Huo Yuanjia in the portrait is still calm, and seems to see through all the world.

Chen Zikun returned to his room, put a few pieces of clothing and guns and bayonets into a small bag and was about to go out, but saw Situ Xiaoyan leaning against the door, his eyes were a little red: "Fifth Senior Brother, do you really want to leave?" ”

"It's not that I won't come back, what's so sad, by the way, I have something to ask you for." Chan said.

"What's the matter?"

"If there is a letter of mine, save it for me, and I will come back to get it."

"Remembered."

Chen Zikun smiled at Situ Xiaoyan, picked up his baggage and went out, the students saw him rolled up, they all stood in the courtyard and whispered, suddenly Ouyang Kai stopped his way and said, "Fifth uncle, I challenge you." ”

"I don't accept your challenge." Chan said.

"Why?" Ouyang Kai was puzzled.

"Because I'm no longer a member of the Jingwu Society, you don't have to prove anything by defeating me." Chen Zikun bypassed Ouyang Kai, suddenly stopped and turned to him: "These days, you have secretly gotten up every night to practice boxing, if it is just to defeat me, then your ambition is too small." ”

After speaking, he left directly, leaving Ouyang Kai confused, what can be considered ambitious?

……

Chen Zikun left his luggage in the pachinko room, yesterday there were indeed some small deflated people who came to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, in a vain attempt to collect protection money, he showed a few hands to scare the other party away, the owner of the pachinko room Petrov was very happy after hearing about it, and promised him a salary of ten yuan a week, no need to do any specific work, as long as he guarded in the pachinko room, so he did not worry about having no place to stay.

The St. Petersburg Club and the pachinko room are separated by a road, Chen Zikun sits at the window every day to observe the movements, Li Yaoting has taken the initiative many times to say that if Da Kunzi is interesting to Natasha, he can predict the salary to lend him for a while, Chen Zikun just laughed it off.

In the evening, the sky was gray, it was drizzling outside, there were few guests in the pachinko room, Chen Zikun accompanied Li Yaoting to finish a game, and was standing at the door bored to smoke, when he suddenly saw a black car with a license plate from the Ministry of Industry coming and parking downstairs at the Petersburg Club.

Chen Zikun's heart beat strongly, and after many days of waiting for the rabbit to finally see results, he hurriedly turned to Li Yaoting and said, "Take my baggage." ”

Li Yaoting said: "Wait a minute, I'll help you lock it in the cabinet, it's not a good thing if someone sees that thing." ”

He was referring to Chen Zikun's two shell guns, which must not be carried in broad daylight during the season of wearing single clothes, and the bullet room is where people come and go, so it is more reassuring to lock them up.

He opened the lock slowly, but Chen Zikun saw Natasha get into the car from the upstairs, and he immediately pushed the bicycle placed at the door and rushed into the rain and fog.

When Li Yaoting came out of the storage room with his baggage, there was still the shadow of Chen Zikun.

On a rainy day, the speed of the car is not fast, Chen Zikun has been following behind on a bicycle, along the road to a luxury apartment building near the Bund, the car stopped at the entrance of the building, the Malay waiter came to greet him with an umbrella, Natasha got out of the car, twisted her waist and entered the building, Chen Zikun, who followed behind, noticed that there were two Indian patrols in the building, and the people who came and went were Europeans, and it was not easy to get in.

Thinking about it, since he came, how can he be worthy of himself if he doesn't fight, he lowered the brim of his hat, put up the collar of his suit, covered his face and ran to the building, banging on the door, the Malay waiter hurriedly came to open the door, and without waiting for the other party to speak, a string of fluent English scolded him, blaming him for opening the door late, and the two Indian patrolmen heard the scolding, how dare they come forward to interrogate, and let him break in.

After entering the building, Chen Zikun suddenly realized that when did he become so proficient in English, it seems that some parts of his memory have been restored, at least the knowledge and skills he has learned have not been lost.

The apartment is luxuriously decorated, the corridor is carpeted, and there are bronze plaques with numbers hanging on the doors of each room, it turns out that this is the apartment of the officials of the Ministry of Industry of the Concession, no wonder there is a patrol to guard the door, looking up, Natasha's smooth and round calves are climbing up the stairs, he quickly followed, watched her enter a room on the third floor from a distance, waited patiently in the stairwell for ten minutes, and estimated that when the warm-up exercise inside was over, he walked over and knocked on the door.

A series of footsteps sounded, the door opened, both people were stunned, Chen Zikun found that the door was not opened by Natasha's old patron Locke, but another European face, wearing only a bathrobe and slippers, showing the black hair on his arms and chest, and the European was also surprised to find that it was a Chinese standing outside the door.

β€œwhatthe**areyoudoing!” Europeans open their mouths and scold.

Chen Zikun smashed his fist on the opponent's door, hitting him all over the face, and at the same time raised his leg and kicked him into the house, only then did he close the door and turn around and scold: "**yourmother!" ”
