Chapter 173: Breaking the Deadlock
A commotion rang out outside the house. The ballroom was even more restless, and the locust came out of the house with a team of "policemen", and he saw a familiar figure sitting on the ground outside the small courtyard, playing with a temper.
"Hostess!" He shouted, walked quickly to meet the figure of the proprietress, and beckoned several "policemen" at the door to withdraw, and stepped forward to help the proprietress up.
"What wind is blowing you?" The locust said with a smile. I have to say that this smile is really not suitable for him, the murderous aura on Tu's face condenses the smile, and it is indescribably terrifying.
But the proprietress was not afraid at all, she just glanced at the locust in anger, and her mouth seemed to be stuffed with honey.
"Dead ghosts." As soon as her body was soft, she was placed on her side in the arms of the locust, and it became a puddle of mud, but this mud was not ordinary sludge, but a variety of soft mud.
The locusts did not push or worse, and the right to take this thin and slender waist in his arms immediately.
"Didn't you just meet and forget me?" The age of the proprietress is by no means young, this locust knows more than herself, but this woman's skin and face seem to have changed, where does she look like a middle-aged at this time? If it's not a soft bone, it's like a young girl.
But the locusts don't eat it. He smiled and straightened the proprietress in his arms.
"I was negligent, and I forgot that you were still here." The locust knew that the woman would not have a few words of truth in her mouth, so he simply started a dumb riddle with her.
The proprietress squinted, her gaze swirling over one of the locust's faces, but her afterglow hurried across the courtyard. She couldn't help but be taken aback, since she was taken away by those traitors who were five big and three coarse, it was like a different faΓ§ade.
Where is that messy look in the courtyard? The decoration has also completely changed the style, quite a bit of a low-key water bar, or the style of a homestay, but it is no longer the appearance of the ball. In the small courtyard, the "police" that was originally stuffed have long disappeared at this time, and even the two people who were guarding the door just now were dispersed by the locusts at this time.
Others...... The proprietress greeted the locusts one by one. She continued to observe, there was no one on all sides, let alone Li Yi, even a grasshopper was silent and silent.
ββ¦β¦ I'm also anxious for you, isn't it, everyone is brothers and sisters, can there be someone who is not in a hurry. When the locusts said these words, they got goosebumps themselves. He grabbed the proprietress's tender arm, and his furry palm rubbed back and forth on the back of the proprietress hand.
His gaze lingered on the hostess's wrist.
The proprietress was full of laughter, and suddenly asked, "Brother Locust, the little sister calls you big brother, what do you have to hide from the little sister." β
The locust was furious inside, and the proprietress almost threw up his words.
"Just ask." He patted his chest.
"I was taken captive." The proprietress stared at the locust with a pair of watery eyes, and she could see that the locust's heart was hairy.
She said this without a beginning or an end, but the locust did not know where to answer.
"Oh, oh." The locust raised an eyebrow and scratched its face. "yes, aren't we in a hurry than you? You see, everyone was having fun just now, and when they saw that something happened to you, didn't they all go out to look for you? β
"Looking for me?" The proprietress blinked and put on a serious look. "Brother Locust, you don't seem to be in a hurry, aren't you in a hurry to find me?"
"How so?" Locust laughed and said, "I don't happen to be on shift, everyone said, if you come back by yourself, you have to have someone to take care of you, right?" β
"That's a coincidence." The hostess nodded.
"Not really, fate." The locusts nodded their heads. The proprietress went around and greeted the locusts back and forth for a long time, but she neither saw the whereabouts of Li Yi and others, nor did she see the so-called police team that went to find herself.
"You don't tell them?" The proprietress said suddenly. "Now that I'm back, what are you looking for?"
"Find someone who offends you, girl. bullied you, how can you say let it go. The locust swore an oath. Both of them actually know it, but only this layer of window paper, no one pierced it, the proprietress can't guess the medicine in the locust gourd, and the locust can't guess the boss's mind.
"Isn't it okay to find someone and let your brothers exercise?" The proprietress looked sly, and suddenly flashed left and right. "Why, Brother Li Yi also went."
The locust prevaricated two sentences, but did not mention Li Yi's matter.
"Oops." The proprietress saw that the locust's face was difficult, so she deliberately didn't mention it, knowing that she was in the right direction. "Why, this Li Yi brother also attaches too much importance to me, an old woman, at night, he is a young man with a lot of water, how restless, don't you say? Big Brother Locust. β
The proprietress said this mellowly, and her tone was even more coquettish.
The locust's eyes were cold, and his mouth was smiling, but the emotions in his heart had long been dry and cracked like the soil that had been dry for a long time, and he was so disgusted by this woman that there was no drop of water.
"Good girl, I know you don't like Brother Li Yi. I also know that the new young people on the mainland are always in your eyes, and this is nothing new. But you can't be too prejudiced......"
"Can't get used to him?" The proprietress smiled coquettishly: "How come." β
She put her palms to her mouth, and when she laughed, there was indeed an indescribable softness.
The locust looked at it for a long time before saying, "No matter what, since Brother Li Yi is already a brother of one of our families, don't talk about it." β
The proprietress smiled, but her heart was as clear as snow. It's not that she really doesn't want to see Li Yi, it's just that this Li Yi came a little inexplicably. The proprietress has been working for fifteen years, to say the least, but she has never been such a pivotal figure without going through her.
If it's just like this, then it won't be too much to think about, but Li Yi is very unusual, as soon as he enters the trap, he immediately settles a few big things for them. Like the shark gang that has always been feared, the civil strife that has been planned for a long time is about to be eaten by sharks, but Li Yi easily solved it.
At the beginning, the proprietress also felt that the locusts had indeed brought back a talent. But how many days have it been? The proprietress didn't have nothing to say in her heart, Li Yi had done so many achievements in a short period of time, solved the Shark Gang, eradicated the threat of the city bureau, and even the checks and balances of the sixteen gangs were also proposed by him.
The proprietress knew that in terms of ability, she would not be able to suppress this young man for a long time.
"You're underestimating me." The proprietress blinked, and he looked at the locust. Li Yi is the person brought by the locust, others didn't notice it, but the proprietress herself didn't think she would look away, this locust is not a simple subservient character.
"I don't have a prejudice against him for a long time, but I'm even a little more interested." The proprietress smiled and said, "Since he came, we have a lot of benefits, and the revival of decades should be put on the agenda, right?" β
The locusts certainly agree. Li Yi is the person he likes, although he came to the trap by mistake, but it is enough to prove that his vision of people will not be wrong.
When the proprietress saw this, the locust listened
Come to use, then follow the vine and touch the melon, and continue to descend.
"Who doesn't love a capable person? Like Li Yi, my vision is not so bad, I wish he had come three or five years earlier, maybe now that the situation has been stabilized, do you still need to be as embarrassed as now? β
The proprietress smiled lightly and followed the words, her eyes were full of softness, flowing around the locusts like water waves. Of course, the locust doesn't eat the boss's wife, but it is rare for him to recognize Li Yi, and it will not be wrong to praise a few more words at this time.
"He specifically instructed you when he made his plans this morning." The locust said, "If you don't listen, I think you just have an opinion about him, if you are honest and obedient, how can you be killed and taken out in the middle of the night." If this spreads, it will be lost to those who are in a bad place. β
The proprietress agreed with her mouth, one by one, and the words reached the heart of the locust.
"Speaking of which, Brother Li Yi is so witty, I didn't expect there to be times when I missed." The proprietress blinked, looking a little lonely.
"Missed?" The locust frowned, he couldn't pretend he didn't hear it. "What do you say?"
"In the middle of the night, Brother Li Yi is not full of food, with a large team of people, walking the streets and alleys, not for the sake of those two flies." The proprietress stood up and stretched her body, taking advantage of the night, and in the blink of an eye, she looked more coquettish.
"Those two aren't fuel-efficient lamps. You can also see that one is his sworn enemy, a mainland policeman, and the other is a brainless man, half a criminal policeman. β
"How do you count half?" The proprietress was surprised.
"Half, although I don't see much of his temperament, it is exactly the same as when his master was young, more than impulsive, but this temper is smelly and weird, and there are far more bad things than successful things. How many do you say? β
"What, you still know someone else's master?" The proprietress grew her eyes, and she really didn't expect that the locust, which kills people like hemp and blood, would have anything to do with the strips.
"Why don't you know?" The locust sneered, its tongue against its throat and made a strange noise. "How can I forget if I died with my own hands."
The proprietress felt a chill behind her.
She was about to speak, when the locust with a disgusting smile on her face suddenly turned serious.
"You are in such a hurry to find Brother Li Yi, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing." The proprietress rolled her eyes and said, "I suddenly remembered that since Brother Li Yi came to us, until now, he has made so many contributions, and I, the person in charge, haven't even given him a good reception, and I have two more glasses of wine. β
The proprietress lowered her head and admitted her mistake, but the locust's face was even more gloomy.
"If you want to give Mr. Li Yi the wind, then you won't collude with the two rats to salute the bar." The locust's words lifted from his abdomen, his voice was high-pitched and powerful, his palm was like the wind, and he grabbed the wrist of the proprietress violently.
The rough palm and the tender wrist intersect, the locust appears taller, and the delicate body of the proprietress is much weaker.
"What are you doing! Let go! The proprietress let out a low roar calmly, and the locust's face became even more solemn.
"How did you get back?" Locust asked.
"Walk back!" Not to be outdone, the proprietress replied.
"Walking back?" The locust sneered. "You're our talker, you were caught by the strip, and you came back step by step?"
The hostess smiled too.
"What do you say?" She grimaced and glared at the locust.
