Chapter 42: The Danger Is Not Far Away
When Zhu Hongyuan received the missing person notice from Yu Fei, he also found an abnormality in it. Coupled with what Yu Fei said, when they only printed one version and there were no mistakes, Zhu Hongyuan sniffed out a hint of danger. With his years of work and actual combat experience, he easily deduced a conclusion, that is, someone is also looking for Longyang.
Although the difference between "government" and "Zheng Fu" is one word, it is a thousand miles apart. One is a government office, the other is a private house, how can it be the same. In ancient times, the mansions of rich people or officials would be called "mansions", such as Li Mansion, Wang Mansion, Su Mansion, etc., with the surname in front and the meaning of mansion in the back.
Zheng Mansion, as the name suggests, is the mansion of the Zheng family. Nowadays, there are very few houses with such a house number, and it is very easy to find. Zhu Hongyuan immediately arranged for Zhang Dongfang to be in charge of this matter, and he must act immediately to find it secretly.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhang Dongfang brought the results of the investigation. The so-called Zheng Mansion is nothing more than a deserted manor with no actual owner. It is now occupied by some beggars and vagrants and serves as their temporary habitat. As for what kind of secrets will be hidden inside, there is no suitable person to investigate in depth.
"It's easy to do, I have a candidate." After Zhu Hongyuan finished speaking, he dialed the phone number in the city. It turned out that he thought of a person, the detective surnamed Li who was dressed as a beggar, his apprentice. This person happens to be still in the county, so it is only fitting to send him over.
"Oh, I remembered. The first time we met was because of Long Yang's first unauthorized action, and he found the office to report to me. Zhang Dongfang suddenly remembered the scout who was dressed as an old beggar.
"I saw him that night, and he was so powerful that I couldn't identify him from the outside." Yu Fei continued.
"Of course, which apprentice is worse than the apprentice who came out of my hands!" Zhu Hongyuan was full of confidence and said with a smile.
"Then we're not bad either!" Every day's anger comes and goes fast, and when she understands what happened, she has already talked and laughed. She and Yu Fei are also Zhu Hongyuan's apprentices, of course, they have to raise their status.
"Yes, you're not bad either!" Zhu Hongyuan smiled and nodded.
Because I don't know what the intention of the person looking for Longyang is, is it good or malicious? Long Yang had no choice but to stay in the institute for the time being, and it would be safer with everyone. This is Zhu Hongyuan's opinion, he has his reasons, and he has a hunch that things will not be so simple.
Zhu Hongyuan had already learned the general situation of his operation from Longyang, and Longyang broke the ceremony and saved the villagers, making great contributions. At the same time, Long Yang must have offended those who were hidden, and he was likely to suffer a crazy revenge.
Longyang can't live outside alone, and if he encounters danger, he can't stand alone. As the saying goes, guns are easy to dodge and hidden arrows are difficult to defend, and in case of an ambush, the consequences are unpredictable.
"Team Zhu thinks about it. Longyang, your dormitory is in the middle, so it is convenient for us to take care of you. Zhang Dongfang immediately arranged a place for Longyang to stay.
"Not really! If those people really come to me for trouble, it's useless for you to live in the same room with me. "What Long Yang said is the truth, and the ability of the black-robed man should not be underestimated. But everyone takes care of his wishes, and he can't go against it. "Okay, I'll stay in the institute for a few days and have a good chat with everyone."
"That's right! Wait for Xiao Li to arrive tomorrow, and we will talk about the future after we investigate. Hearing Long Yang's words, Zhu Hongyuan and the others' faces softened slightly. You kid, you're a little reckless and reckless, and I've been too lazy to criticize you a few times. Zhu Hongyuan deliberately straightened his face and taught his little brother a lesson.
"Okay, I'll leave it all up to you." Long Yang surrendered to the people around him who cared about him, and looked at everyone with a smile.
"You said it was all up to us, then we'll go to your dormitory and have a look." Zhu Hongyuan took the lead towards Longyang's dormitory.
"Holy!" When everyone entered the room and saw everything in the room, they were thundered. It turned out that Longyang was treated as a VIP, but it was still inside and out. Even the table outside was full of dishes and it was a welcome ceremony.
"Long Yang, don't treat you too well!" Every day, I look at the table full of dishes, like a greedy cat, and circle around the table.
"These are the results of Lao Zhu's orders and my errands." Zhang Dongfang said, took out two bottles of good wine from behind him and shook them.
"It is said that women are careful, and you two old men are more careful than women." Every day he hurriedly reached out and pinched the food and sent it to his mouth.
"Long Yang saved eighty-one lives, we don't give him a celebration who will celebrate. Besides, I haven't had a sip for so many days, so let's have a good cup tonight. After Zhu Hongyuan finished speaking, he sat down. He opened a bottle of wine, poured himself a glass, and drank it all. "Come along." Only then did he beckon everyone to eat together.
Dinner was not long, only a bottle of wine was drunk. During this time, everyone was tired, and the tense heart finally relaxed. After cleaning up together, leave Longyang's room and rest separately. But after Zhu Hongyuan left, he returned to Longyang's dormitory again, opened the remaining bottle of wine, and poured a bowl for himself and Longyang. A bottle of wine, a bowl for one person, and half for one person.
"It's just us two brothers, come, let's fix it again." Zhu Hongyuan beckoned Long Yang, picked up a peanut with his hand and threw it into his mouth. There are only two people left, him and Long Yang, and he doesn't have to care about his identity and face.
"Didn't you drink well just now?" Long Yang smiled and sat opposite Zhu Hongyuan.
"I didn't drink well, and you didn't drink it well." Zhu Hongyuan picked up the bowl and motioned for Long Yang to touch it. After bumping, the two took a bite each.
"Lao Zhu, if you have something to say, I don't know you yet." Long Yang finished drinking and asked directly.
"You're the first to speak! I should have asked you! Zhu Hongyuan took out a cigarette and handed it to Long Yang.
Long Yang waved his hand and refused. "I don't have anything to say."
"But I really have something to ask." Zhu Hongyuan lit a cigarette for himself and spit out a string of smoke rings. "You say there's no danger, but I don't believe it. Tell me what you think of the notice? ”
"Oh, that's what happened. In my opinion, other people may have done it to find me, or maybe they had made a mistake by negligence, so don't take it personally. Long Yang answered Zhu Hongyuan's question indifferently.
"Do you doubt my judgment, or do you not treat me as your brother?" Zhu Hong smoked from afar, while observing Long Yang's expression when he answered. This is not a simple matter, Long Yang must have his reasons if he doesn't say it, but Zhu Hongyuan must know the reason.
"Lao Zhu, that's not what I meant." Long Yang was almost unable to answer Zhu Hongyuan's question.
"What does that mean?" Zhu Hongyuan kept asking, intending to break the casserole and ask to the end.
"I'm just guessing." Looking at Zhu Hongyuan's appearance, he can't pass the test without telling the truth. Long Yang decided to reveal some of the things about the black-robed man to Zhu Hongyuan, but he still had to hide some of them.
"Speak." Zhu Hongyuan picked up the bowl again and took half of it himself.
Long Yang didn't give in, and he drank a big sip himself. "Do you remember the night you first came to Fangcun Town, and the two of us talked alone outside the police station?"
Zhu Hongyuan remembered that after sending Yu Fei and Tian Tian back to the police station, Zhu Hongyuan refused the arrangement in the station and insisted on living with Longyang. The two talked on the road and at Longyang's residence, involving many secrets in the village. Long Yang suggested that there were dangerous people involved, but did not tell him who it was. "You said there were dangerous people involved."
"That's right! If my guess is correct, this time it's their trick. But there's no real evidence at the moment, and I'm not very sure. ”
"That's why you won't say it?"
"It's not."
"Why is that?"
"Danger!" After Long Yang finished speaking, he took another sip of wine.
"So the danger hasn't been eliminated and is still around us?" Zhu Hongyuan had already judged that someone was unfavorable to Long Yang, but when he said it from Long Yang's mouth, he realized the seriousness of the problem. Long Yang didn't say that it was dangerous to investigate the case alone and fight alone, but said that it was dangerous at this time, and it could be seen from Long Yang's expression that he was serious.
"Can you tell me about it?" Zhu Hongyuan asked.
"Yes." Long Yang was silent for a moment and straightened out his thoughts. "Let me start with my way to school! On my way to school, I was chased and killed by four people, and I finally got rid of them. ”
"Someone was chasing you then?" As soon as Zhu Hongyuan heard what Long Yang said, he immediately asked in shock.
"Lao Zhu, listen to me. Those four people will not hunt me down anymore, they are no longer in this world. We said that this time, there were also their people involved in the mutation in the village, he could control the walking corpses, and he was preparing a big conspiracy. Although this conspiracy did not succeed, they will not give up. Because I sabotaged their plan, they would definitely retaliate, so I guess it is possible that the matter of the other post was secretly arranged by them. ”
"Who are they?" Zhu Hongyuan asked nervously.
"The man in the black robe."
"The black-robed man? Who is the black-robed man? When Zhu Hongyuan heard the black-robed man for the first time, he couldn't help but be full of questions.
"They don't refer to a single person, but a mysterious organization. The members of the organization are dressed in black robes, and I can't see their true faces, so I can only refer to them as black-robed people for now. Since Zhu Hongyuan wanted to know the reason, Long Yang told him that he could make Zhu Hongyuan vigilant at work.
"And how much do you know?"
"They're all very skilled, and they have some special methods. They can attack, kill, set up, control corpses, etc., and they are very numerous, and they have their own division of labor. "From Shezhen to Fangcun Town, there are clearly two different teams of black-robed people, and they are responsible for different tasks.
"Huh?" Zhu Hongyuan heard Long Yang's explanations, and finally understood the danger that Long Yang said. No wonder Long Yang said that if those people came to find trouble, everyone would not be able to live in one room.
"Lao Zhu, do you understand what I mean?" After Long Yang finished speaking, he picked up the bowl and touched the wine bowl in front of Zhu Hongyuan.
"Well, you just don't want to bring danger to everyone, and you want to act alone and engage in personal heroism!" Zhu Hongyuan was telling the truth, but his words were full of concern for Long Yang and helplessness about this matter.
"I'm just going to tell you about it, and you're going to keep it a secret from them." Long Yang's meaning is obvious, that is, don't let Yu Fei and Tian Tian know. If they knew that there was such a big danger, they didn't know what was going to happen.
"I know. Long Yang, I have already notified Xiao Li to come over. If you're going to do anything, we'll have to wait until we've scouted the perimeter, okay? Zhu Hongyuan was already asking for Long Yang's opinion at this time. He knew that if it was like what Long Yang said, then it would not be enough for them to send as many people as they wanted, but they could do peripheral reconnaissance and try to grasp as much information as possible.
"I promise you."
The two of them picked up the bowl in unison and drained the wine in the bowl.
At night, the lights in Zhu Hongyuan's house were on all night, and he didn't sleep all night. The lights in Longyang's house were out, and he didn't sleep, he was discussing things with the dog. The danger has not gone far, and Longyang has to deal with it in advance.
