Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Trap
In fact, it really has nothing to do with being afraid or not, it's just that Li Zhen wants to verify a certain thought in his heart.
That idea has been hidden in my heart for a long time - it has sprouted since the Shennongjia incident. After his trip to Japan, the premonition became stronger and stronger, to the point that he could no longer think that it was his delusion, and he could no longer sit idly by.
As for that address, it's a half-truth. On his way there, he passed through a residential area that looked deserted and sparsely populated. Some of the houses are not finished yet, some have just been renovated. They are all two-story buildings, but they are not like Li Zhen's current residence, which has high courtyard walls.
Some of the houses had signs for rent hanging outside, and he had seen the price — it was actually cheaper than the area he was living in now.
So after he left Rizal Road, he turned in, and according to the phone number left on the sign, he made a call in turn, and rented the house he had mentioned before.
Accompanied by an intermediary, I entered the door, which was so empty that it seemed that even the walls had not been painted. The wires were exposed, and the water pipes were not fully laid. The homegrown agent was a little surprised by the choice of this one, as this unfinished residential area has been here for four years.
Although he had repeatedly stressed that there were no living facilities in this house, this fair young man made up his mind to rent this suite.
The intermediary looked at Li Zhen carefully and couldn't help but speak: "You are Chinese, right?" ”
"Hmm." Li Zhen walked slowly with his hands behind his back, carefully observing the environment in the house, and then nodded: "Very good." Very good. ”
However, the other party didn't understand it at all. What exactly is "very good" and "very good".
The next moment he saw Li Zhen walk to the window, lean against the window, and glance out obliquely.
So there was a stirring in him—he felt as if he understood something.
I thought that the temperament of this person was different, and at first I thought it was the kind of arrogance unique to Chinese. However, it was only now that he realized that it was not arrogance, but a—a cold and cruel taste.
He had been in contact with all the people of the three sects and the ninth rank, so it was easy to distinguish that Li Zhen's action just now was a vigilant posture - if he stuffed a gun into his hand now, his next action would be to quickly retract his head and shoot a point outside the window.
This guy ...... It's all cash. The point is that he also took an additional three hundred gold dollars. Ask yourself to "get an identity" for him. He's done it many times. Therefore, it is natural to come to a conclusion in my heart -
Is it a drug dealer or a ...... Who came to the Philippines to avoid trouble?
Li Zhen has already fine-tuned his appearance, and this intermediary naturally can't recognize him as the wanted criminal on TV, but his guess is already eight or nine ten. Thinking of this, he stopped talking. only quietly accompanied Li Zhen to see the second floor. After collecting the money, he quickly left.
And Li Zhen called Beichuan Qingming on another phone: "I won't go back to eat at noon." Something has to be done. It should be late at night...... Well. It's not a dangerous thing, do some preparation. It's good. ”
After putting down the phone, he sat on the stairs in the house for a while.
He also had a cigarette in his hand that the intermediary had handed him. Originally, he didn't want to take it, but it was just out of curiosity about "what does a cigarette taste like in the Philippines?" He stayed.
Smoking before would stimulate his abilities. But after Chi You's rampage, he felt as if he should be able to resist the effects of cigarettes.
So he thought about it, snapped his fingers, and lit the cigarette.
On the opposite side of the staircase was the window, and the sky was overcast, and the leaden gray clouds were pressing down. The coconut trees outside the window are rustling in the wind, and the coconut fruit seems to fall at any moment. Li Zhen tried to take a soft sip while watching, swirled in his mouth, and spit it out again.
There was no reaction on my body......
So he took a second bite into his lungs. There seemed to be a slight lightness on the body.
A cigarette reminded him of a lot of people. Yu Yongqiang, Aunt Liu, and Ying Ran ...... Zhang Kesong.
It's less than a year. Whether it is someone else's world or your own world, the world has been turned upside down.
The irritability in my heart for no reason rose after talking to Kitagawa Harumaki.
He felt ......
That's not a sorry thing, is it? After all, it has to be. It's always a lot more convenient to buy groceries and cook them at home than to go out – and it's not noticeable.
However...... Family.
The thought of the word made his heart beat again.
How do I call that place "home".
She must have known that I was in exile with Kitagawa Harumi. What would she think?
Mom and Dad must be worried about death. Hopefully, the dean won't let them be wronged.
There is also Brother Ying. What about him now?
In fact, when Shennongjia used his own blood to revive them, he had already realized that such a risk was quite large. At that time, he knew that some of Chiyou's consciousness had merged with himself. The first time I went to see him at Ying Gong's house, there was an orange glint in his eyes - that meant that he was trying to suppress the other party's will.
However, after all, it has been diluted by one's own blood, and Ying Ran's willpower is not unfirm, so it may not be a big deal.
What's more, there were only two choices at the time - death, or life.
Alive, anything is possible. No one knows it more than he does.
Li Zhen took another deep breath, and half of the cigarette was missing all of a sudden.
Thinking of death, I thought of Yu Qingqing.
I don't know what that little girl looks like. In Li Zhen's impression, it should be a little guy with short hair, big eyes, and a tiger head. How can an ordinary child have as much courage as her? Make friends with the people in the grave? Hehe.
He couldn't help but smile.
After sitting in this rough room for five minutes, Li Zhen stood up again and let out a deep breath.
Come, come, and then I will see you for what you really are, and see who you really are.
With that in mind, he strode out the door. But instead of going home, I walked around the pharmacy, the hardware store, and the supermarket. When he came back, he had already carried a dozen bags, large and small, and after a while, another pickup truck drove in and unloaded a lot of things for him.
He had learned a lot of tricks in the secret service. However, at that time, there was a steady stream of support behind him, and all the weapons and equipment were the best and most advanced, so there were few opportunities to get hands-on. Today, he finally found a place to use -
He was going to prepare a big gift for the people who would come near the house.
He spent the whole afternoon preparing in the house, and only after it was dark did he go out and start the decoration. The sky was always overcast, but the first raindrops fell when he finished arranging. So instead of going back, he braved the rain to run out of a barely seen residential area and stood on the side of the street waiting for a taxi.
A muffled thunder flashed in the sky, and two seconds later the thunder rolled in.
This scene is nothing compared to the scene of the storm and the dragon raging on that isolated island. However, Li Zhen's heart suddenly flashed with the thunder, so that he didn't even see an empty car driving towards him.
Because he thought of another thing -
Dai Bingcheng has a backer for the public. And Ying Gong must have other huge forces behind him - otherwise the northern base would not have been able to suppress the southern base for so long.
So......
Just because he did something in Japan, the northern base ended up so passive??
That's impossible!
What about Ying Gong? What about the others?
He is...... Ready to let it go? But for what? They seem to have been planning for a long time—they can't just stop for no reason. If the speculation is true, what was it that made that rather amiable-looking old man make such a decision?
- Decidely.
Li Zhen took a deep breath of heavy moisture.
Could he be ...... Something happened, right?
If something happens to him, that anger can certainly lead to the current situation – the pain of a father who has lost his son is unimaginable.
Damn it. Li Zhen clenched his fists and let the rain drench him. Because he didn't think it was right either.
It could be worse.
Ying Ran's life was saved by him. Even if the body is not well maintained, something unexpected happens again - a sensible person like Ying Gong should not be angry with himself, let alone angry with others Dai Bingcheng and the Secret Service Office.
Could it be that —
He also went berserk like himself?!
It should definitely be a C-class, even if it becomes a B-class in the large-scale evolution - a B-class rampage should not be uncontrollable. Fear is just fear, this situation leads to the emergence of another possibility.
An unsuspecting person around him burst out and killed people......
Who can prevent it?
Should he be a ......
Should be down. The current situation is too easy to explain.
This conclusion was like a heavy boulder pressing on Li Zhenxin's head, and even made him hate himself - why do you want to think so much?!
He jerked around and retreated into the residential area. Then they slammed into the sky, and under the cover of the heavy night and the curtain of rain, they rushed up the roofs of the alleys, almost in a straight line back to the house they had before.
When he pushed the door open, Kitagawa was startled. But Li Zhen didn't have time to change out of his soaked coat so he threw himself in front of the computer, supported the desktop with his hands and began to carefully check the relevant information in China, especially Pingyang.
Kitagawa brought him a towel and asked while handing it to him, "What's wrong?" Something went wrong? ”
Li Zhen locked his eyebrows and shook his head: "I'm at Chaying's house." If I guessed correctly......"
He was stunned. Because the information was indeed found by him - Ying Zhaoran was re-elected as the governor of Pingyang City.
So he slowed down and read the reports word by word, not missing a single image.
He found ...... There is no news of Ying Gong. Even at a banquet after the election. (To be continued.) )
