Chapter 264: Three-way lurking

Gu Huai returned to the mansion alive, which Deng Bo didn't expect at all.

He felt that even if Gu Huai didn't die in the hotel, he would probably shed a layer of skin.

But when Gu Huai came back, he didn't even mess up his hair.

Deng Bo couldn't help but feel nervous. His people were sure that Gu Huai had entered the hotel, but they didn't know why he was able to come back with all his beards and tails.

"Coming back?" Dumbo felt weak, but he was calm.

Gu Huai casually put his clothes on the hanger at the door, and responded, "Well, I met Xiuqin." ”

Deng Bo chuckled in his heart and looked at Gu Huai nervously. The latter didn't react in particular and didn't seem to take the matter to heart.

"Xiuqin?" Deng Bo raised his voice, "How did you meet her?" ”

He pulled Gu Huai's arm and looked him up and down in a good manner: "How is it, it's not hurt." ”

Gu Huai pulled out his arm from his hand: "No, it's already settled." ”

Dumbo was in ecstasy. He looked at Gu Huai: "Solved?" ”

Gu Huai nodded: "It's solved." ”

"Do you have what it takes to get out of her? How powerful are you? ”

Dumb wasn't convinced, and reconfirmed the matter.

"What's so hard about a Muggle without magic?"

Gu Huai said so, went back to his room, and didn't say a word more.

Dumbo stood there, ecstatic in his heart.

There was no need for Gu Huai to lie to him about this matter. Because what about Xiuqin, soon the truth will tell them the answer.

Deng Bo received the news that Xiuqin had left the city.

He didn't receive any information about Xiuqin's injury, and it was precisely because of this that he was convinced of what Gu Huai said.

If Gu Huai really hit Xiuqin hard, in order to keep her position, she would definitely block the news and go back to Shangcheng for treatment. That is, exactly the same as now.

So Deng Bo felt that Gu Huai was really hit hard, or killed Xiuqin.

He looked at Gu Huai with a much more attentive look.

You must know that Xiuqin is currently the most powerful and powerful person in the parliament, and the person who controls the military.

Now that she is down, the Xiu family who received the news must be in a mess.

And if you get the weapon production plan in hand, you will soon become the strongest councilor in the upper city.

In this way, according to Gu Huai, it is not impossible for him to become the first councilor.

No, it's very likely.

Thinking of this, Deng Bo almost hummed a little song and raised his hand to sing.

Dumbo was so excited that he didn't notice the new faces in the lab.

In fact, he didn't have the slightest interest in research, so naturally he didn't care much about researchers.

His warrant was needed for everyone to come in and out, and he wasn't worried that someone would fish in troubled waters.

This also gave Gu Huai great convenience.

He generously replaced people, so that Wu Qing had a lot of professionals around him. And these people were all sent by Xiuqin. Some even Wu Qing knew.

In private, Wu Qing secretly found Gu Huai and asked him about the situation.

He didn't dare to ask directly, for fear of alarming Deng Bo and causing unnecessary trouble.

Gu Huai replied to him: "I want to find a way to get it from Xiuqin." ”

"Isn't Xiuqin dead?" Wu Qing asked in a low voice.

Deng Bo couldn't share this matter with everyone, and Wu Qing was not left behind. He knew it, but he didn't feel anything special.

Xiuqin is with him because she takes a fancy to his identity and status, and why is he?

When it comes to feelings, his feelings for the test tube may be more profound.

So Xiuqin's 'death' didn't bring him much of a blow.

"Not dead." Gu Huai said, "I lied to Deng Bo, she was only slightly injured. I talked to her, and she sent people over to help us with our research. ”

Wu Qing didn't understand very well.

"I told her to help her get a head start, but she needed to lend me someone."

Gu Huai looked at him and said sincerely: "It's all for you, you have to know that now you are sandwiched between Deng Bo and Xiuqin, and if you are not careful, it will be a 'death' word." ”

Wu Qing was clear.

Now Xiuqin feels that she has betrayed her, and Deng Bo's trust in him is also visible to the naked eye. There is only one way out for yourself, and you can't fail.

At this moment, Wu Qing knows better that he can only survive by choosing to believe in Gu Huai.

If he refuses Gu Huai's 'help', he will be the one who dies the fastest.

So although Wu Qing felt that there were at least three or four falsehoods in Gu Huai's words, he still chose to trust on the surface and accelerated the speed of research.

He already knew that he was in the lower city, and if he didn't have the weapons on his side, even if he didn't have Deng Bo and Xiuqin, he could be killed by the people in the lower city.

Everyone has their own thoughts, different things, different dreams.

With new people joining, the progress of Wu Qing's research has been much faster. Gu Huai disappeared all day long, and chatted with the tavern owner in the tavern every day.

He doesn't drink, just sits at the bar and sometimes eats fruit.

Gu Muxi sat with him, his eyes were fierce, and he was extremely wary of everyone who approached Gu Huai.

Because a few days ago, someone had already shot at him.

Gu Muxi taught that person a hard lesson and didn't let him leave alive.

"It's not very peaceful these days."

The tavern owner polished the glass bottle in his hand with a cloth and whispered to Gu Huai.

Gu Huai: "I know. ”

But what does it have to do with him?

The tavern owner put down the glass in his hand: "There is news from the upper city, and the lower city is going to be rectified." ”

In the plot, it was at this time that Xiuqin proposed the decision to conquer the lower city by force. So now that there is this rumor, Gu Huai is not surprised.

But he knew better that there was no need to care about this rumor.

Because Councilor Deng Bo, who has the power to decide, is now in the lower city, he can't participate in the tavernkeeper's activities, and Councilor Xiuqin needs to play dead, so naturally he won't participate in decision-making.

There are two of the six councillors, and one of them still has the right of veto, so naturally the matter of rectifying the city by force must be put aside.

"Let's find a way to get a copy of Wu Qing's research drawings first." Gu Huai looked at the crystal cup shining under the light and said this to the tavern owner.

"Shall I take it?" The tavernkeeper didn't understand at all, "No, you're not there?" You don't take it? ”

Gu Huai: "How much do I take to arouse suspicion?" Besides, you can do this kind of little thing. ”

The tavern owner is really sorry. He shouldn't have said so much to Gu Huai. Now that he has talked too much, Gu Huai is really becoming more and more unkind to call him.

"The weapon has been made, and I will help you out first."

This made the tavernkeeper's eyes light up. Regret? No regrets. He followed Gu Huai and never suffered a loss.

What's wrong with doing something? He likes to help Gu Huai the most.

Gu Huai is a good person, there are few troubles, and there is a lot of remuneration.

Isn't it just two drawings? He's tomorrow, no! Today! He'll get it tonight! Definitely not a little time to lose!
