Chapter 13: Inquiry
Luo Xi had a low-grade fever all night, and Ye Wen did everything he could to prevent the injury from progressing to the point of getting worse.
He grabbed the back of Luo Xi's neck with one hand and pulled his entire upper body out of the quilt, and stuffed a few pills into his mouth with the other.
Luo Xi turned his head and wanted to vomit, and was pinched on the cheek.
"Took the medicine." Ye Wen's face darkened.
The corners of Luo Xi's mouth twitched, and he looked at him pitifully, "Brother, this is the third anti-inflammatory medicine tonight...... Doesn't it really eat the dead? ”
Ye Wen handed the cup to his lips, "Isn't that an anti-inflammatory tablet useless?" Look at how good you are now. ”
Luo Xi, with black circles and pale eyes and bloodless lips, "......"
"Okay," Ye Wen picked up the bowl on the bedside table and handed it to his mouth, "Hungry, right?" Jiang Chengze's bastard shouldn't have eaten you well in the past few days. ”
Luo Xi took a look, it was porridge, it was terrifyingly light, and there was not a single leaf. He reluctantly took it and tasted it, sweet, the taste he didn't like, but each grain of rice was rarely soft and glutinous, very fragrant.
Ye Wen watched him eat from the side, "How old are you?" ”
"Sixteen," Luo Xi swallowed the porridge.
Ye Wen handed him a tissue, "You dare to do such a dangerous thing when you are only sixteen?" Aren't you afraid of death? ”
"Dangerous?" Luo Xi took it, "It's not dangerous for you to casually bring an undercover agent home?" What are you afraid of, what am I afraid of? ”
Ye Wen shook his head, "Mr. Yan said you are fine. ”
Luo Xi sneered, "Why do you trust that form so much?" He put down the bowl, "Really, it's very exaggerated, you Yan family, seeing him is like visiting your ancestors." What kind of monster is he, as far as he goes? ”
Ye Wen really nodded, "I haven't seen anyone smarter than him." ”
"Hey," Luo Xi said unashamedly, "That's because you have little knowledge, tell you, I know that a person is definitely no worse than words." ”
Ye Wen raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously, "Yourself? ”
"No, that person is ......" Luo Xi was about to say, when he suddenly realized something, he was busy silencing, glanced at Ye Wen, and waved his hand, "Forget it, you said that you will also brag to me, so I won't tell you." ”
Ye Wen didn't ask much, but mentioned another thing, "Which family are you?" ”
This kid's surname is Luo, but Ye Wen has dug up all the major families in the seven districts in the past few days, but he hasn't seen any family surnamed Luo.
Luo Xi turned around and pulled the quilt on, "Brother, I'm really sleepy, I'm injured, my whole body hurts." ”
Ye Wen's eyes sank, and he didn't say anything after all.
Jiang Chengze sat cross-legged on the dusty carpet, surrounded by a file half a head taller than him, all the business and events of the bar since its opening.
The bar is not a long-established brand, but it has been renovated three times in seven or eight years, and each superficial expansion is a cover for the expansion of the underground system.
To be honest, the entire basement of this bar is quite a good area and scale, it is very likely to be the headquarters of the seventh district of the Yan family, and even has a small arsenal, armed submarines, etc., and there are a lot of underground businesses.
But Jiang Chengze just couldn't believe that Yan Shi would watch him invade the headquarters without any action.
So he simply searched for all the bar's files and sifted them down several times before leaving these useful information.
The person who wrote the dossier was far smarter than Jiang Chengze imagined, and all the information seemed to be clear one by one, but it was difficult to find the point.
Jiang Chengze almost wondered if Yan Shi had formulated some kind of rules for reading dossiers, such as hiding his head or something, to confuse others.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, so he picked up a piece of paper and looked at it from a different angle, raised it above his head and looked at it through the back, thought about it, and ran to look at it with some lemonade.
However, nothing special has changed.
Jiang Chengze felt that his head was twice bigger.
In what way does the speech hide the secret?
Jiang Chengze desperately recalled what he cared about or hated.
Sluggish feelings, smoking, drinking, and other people's eyes.
Yan Family, Seven Districts, Money, Power.
Jiang Chengze exhaled heavily.
There's simply no way to tie these together.
Jiang Chengze rubbed his temples and sorted out the documents in his hand into a pure white file bag.
Yan Shi didn't know what was wrong, people used kraft paper bags to save things, he had to use white paper bags, and he had been stained with dirty and gray color by dust for so many years. If he could, Jiang Chengze really didn't want to touch these paper bags.
He got up and put a stack of papers in an empty cabinet that had been specially cleared, and locked it carefully. As soon as he turned around and opened the door to go out, he was hurriedly pulled by a bartender.
Jiang ...... Mr. Jiang, there is a single business. ”
Jiang Chengze came suddenly, and he took over too suddenly, and a group of younger brothers didn't have time to understand what his identity and status were, and they only knew that his surname was Jiang.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chengze asked,
The little bartender looked dazed, "Huh? ”
Jiang Chengze was at a loss than him, "Don't you take the business to investigate the guests first?" ”
The little bartender shook his head stunned, "I haven't checked." ”
Jiang Chengze, "......"
Sure enough, there is still a distance from the headquarters.
"Forget it," Jiang Chengze waved his hand.
Go straight to it, it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Jiang Chengze cautiously restrained his pheromones before entering the box.
The largest family in the seventh district can only be placed in the third district, and Jiang Chengze does not want to show his edge to arouse suspicion.
Ye Wen had never shown up when he was managing his business before, and he was remotely controlled through headphones.
So as not to cause unnecessary suspicion and entanglement of the other party because of bloodline issues.
Jiang Chengze pushed the door open.
The room was eerily quiet, the song machine and spotlights were turned off, and the table was filled with high-end foreign wines, which were poured into the bottom of delicate glasses. There's even a simple liquid composition analyzer on the table.
Jiang Chengze's gaze finally fell on the man on the sofa.
He only brought one person with him, dressed in a black suit, but he didn't wear a tie, didn't tie the last button, and didn't have cuffs, and he wore it very casually, and he couldn't tell whether it was formal or informal, vigilant or not.
Jiang Chengze ordered in the little bartender's ear, "Have a cup of pink beauty." ”
The little bartender exited the room with a "you're not mistaken" expression.
Jiang Chengze closed the door, looked around, didn't sit next to the man, bent down and pulled the table apart, and sat directly on the table with his legs crossed in front of the man.
"Do you want cigarettes?" Jiang Chengze took care of himself and ordered one for himself.
The man said, "No. ”
Quite faceless.
Jiang Chengze glanced at him, and said in his heart, what are you dragging, everyone comes out to do business, you are the uncle?
Don't, don't.
"What kind of business do you want to do?" He asked.
The man straightened up from the couch, his whole face emerging from the darkness.
His appearance is too sunny, and it almost brings out a youthful student spirit. The overly gloomy eyes were on his face, and the plainness added a little contradictory to the forest.
"Where's my brother?"
Yo, come and ask for someone.
"Your brother...... Jiang Chengze changed his other leg and crossed it, "Your brother, you came to me?" ”
The corners of the man's lips tightened a little, "Tell me how much it costs." ”
Money?
Jiang Chengze pressed the cigarette out at the mouth of the wine bottle, "Money, ......"
He raised his eyes and smiled playfully, "Am I such a superficial person?" ”
Man, "......"
Jiang Chengze said, "I won't tell you, I'm not good at money, it's so exciting, I want to feel the fun of tearing tickets, how about it?" Why don't you exchange a life for a life? ”
The man raised his eyebrows and leaned back in his chair, "Want my life?" ”
"Who scares about you?" Jiang Chengze sneered, "You are really too forgetful, aren't my people also in your hands?" ”
The man suddenly said, "You said the little doctor?" ”
Jiang Chengze said, "Yes." ”
Man, "Don't give." ”
Jiang Chengze, "?? ”
"You don't want your brother anymore?"
The man did not hesitate, "Unconscious stinky boy, send it to you, he is honest, you can tear it a few more times, after tearing the whip corpse, you have to have a good time." ”
Jiang Chengze, "......"
I'm sorry brother, I didn't understand your operation.
The man was about to get up and leave after speaking, but Jiang Chengze hurriedly stopped him, "Brother, slow down." ”
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Chengze snapped his fingers and called the little bartender outside the door, raised his hand to pick up the wine on the tray in his hand, and handed it to the man, "No thanks, this wine is lined with you." ”
The man looked down.
Haze pink liquid, a cherry on the edge of a cup with a rose pattern.
Man, "......"
Jiang Chengze turned his head and pulled the little bartender to run, and the sound of a man smashing the cup came from behind him.
The little bartender was amazed.
This Mr. Jiang is simply talented in angering others.
"Now go check on him," Jiang Chengze ordered, "the sooner the better." ”
The little bartender nodded.
But when Jiang Chengze asked about it the next day, the bar's information department couldn't give any useful information.
"Can't find out which one?" Jiang Chengze asked.
The person in charge touched the sweat on his bald head, "We tried our best to ......"
Jiang Chengze doesn't believe in evil, "Can't you find out where he has appeared?" ”
"We really did our best," the old man almost cried, "and it was as if he had appeared and disappeared suddenly, without a clue." ”
Jiang Chengze frowned, "Is there any trace of the surveillance being invaded?" Have you checked it? ”
The old man shook his head, "It's really not ...... wow"
Jiang Chengze took a deep breath and held back his temper.
As long as a person appears, there will be traces.
He didn't believe the man would disappear into thin air.
Jiang Chengze didn't dare to delay, he immediately left the bar and secretly arrived at the black market in the seventh district.
Even if there is no information and no surveillance footage can be found, there should be relevant rumors, whether true or not, it is better than knowing nothing.
Jiang Chengze smoked against the wall at the entrance of the alley, and the man secretly stuffed the money, and successfully entered the dark narrow road.
This piece is not chaotic to describe, like a maze of paths, dark and long, the businesses are not tightly separated from each other, and it is often necessary to turn several corners to see the next one.
Jiang Chengze went to every house to see, selling everything, from all kinds of indescribable magazines, movies, small toys, to guns, weapons, and black technology.
He found a small shop, walked around the shelves, smiled and lit a cigarette for the store manager, "How is the business lately?" He said pleasantly.
"Not good, not good." The swarthy man waved his hand and puffed out a mouthful of big yellow teeth, "I can't even afford good cigarettes." ”
Jiang Chengze smiled and stuffed the remaining pack of cigarettes that had barely touched, "What's this?" Brother, I see that you are in my eyes, and I have invited you for this cigarette money. ”
"Hey," the shopkeeper blinked greedily when he heard this, "if you really want to be my brother, you have to take care of my business." ”
"Come, how can you not come," Jiang Chengze took something from the shelves at random nearby, "Brothers have to take care of each other, and I will only do business with you in the future." ”
Seeing that the shopkeeper was smiling, Jiang Chengze's voice changed, "It's just-"
The shopkeeper panicked, "Can't you go back?" ”
"No," Jiang Chengze smiled, "I only have one thing I want to ask you, brother." ”
"Have you heard of the Luo family?"
