Chapter 139: Sharpening the Knife Cat Lady
(3-in-1 6000 words chapter)
The load-bearing drone flies to a safe area and lands.
After Su Mo landed, he beckoned to the drone camera: "I'm fine." β
The voice of the future came from the drone stereo: "Boss, you are also hard enough, the explosive fuse is pulled out"
"Dynamite?" Su Mo smiled, removed the circle of explosives tied to his body, and threw it into the river next to him, "Fake, it's full of laundry detergent." Live a good life, blow yourself up with them, am I stupid? β
Future: "What if you don't bluff them?"
Su Mo: "I didn't bluff it, so I jumped out of the window early to open it." Those mercenaries and Heywood can only fend for themselves, and I have done my duty. β
"Okay, let's not talk about it, you can take it back, and I'll go home by myself in a while."
After the drone flew away, Sumo found his motorcycle and returned to the inner city.
The dappled lights danced ahead, and he couldn't help but think about the bright metropolis as he looked at it.
In this world, it is difficult for lone wolves to survive.
Unless it becomes the strongest, strong enough to crush anyone.
Su Mo wants to step on the top of the dawn, and becoming the strongest is of course his goal, but this goal is still too far away.
Some of the ups and downs encountered along the way can be solved by force, and some cannot.
Those problems that cannot be solved by force rely heavily on backstage and connections.
Just like Ou Chenyu, if he hadn't climbed up to Lucio, he would have to take off a layer of skin in Longmen Restaurant today.
But just because he hugged his father-in-law's thigh and had the support of the authorities, he was able to face Simon calmly.
Su Mo has only been a mercenary for less than two months, although he has met Odiana and Dress, two well-known intermediaries, and his future is better than that of 99% of rookie mercenaries, but the backstage is still not hard enough.
First of all, he and the two intermediaries are only in a cooperative relationship, and the network resources that he can directly enjoy are limited.
Secondly, the intermediary is only a middleman after all, which is still very different from the real authority congressman like Lucio.
Now as he grows bigger, the enemies he comes into contact with are getting stronger and stronger.
While ensuring that he becomes stronger, he also needs a strong backstage to settle those troubles that he is currently difficult to deal with.
Otherwise, things like Longmen Restaurant will continue to be staged
The next morning, Su Mo was eating breakfast and watching "New Moon Morning" on time.
The host teased: "Good morning! Crescent City! The sun has just risen, and we're in for some sensational news! β
"From last night to this morning, our news agency has received a large number of video sources, in which a number of mercenaries have issued statements that they will no longer accept any commissions related to the border from now on."
"What is the reason for multiple mercenaries to make such a statement at the same time? Martin, what do you think? β
Next to the host, the fat bearded guest said: "In my opinion, this is a blow from the border group to the mercenary forces in the inner city, and it is very likely that the mastermind behind the scenes is the king of the borderlands. β
"We all know that Crescent City, as the capital of mercenaries, has extremely frequent mercenary activities, especially in the border areas. As the de facto ruler of the frontier, the Crow's Nest will inevitably find it difficult to tolerate excessive involvement by mercenaries. β
Host: "So you think it was the Crownest that forced the mercenaries to make a video statement in some way, right?" β
Martin: "yes, that's my opinion. It is impossible for any mercenary to voluntarily make such a statement, which is self-destructive. β
Moderator: "And what do you think of that?" β
"I'd like to say to these mercenaries who made the statementβ" Martin stood up and raised his middle finger to the screen with both hands, "Eat O!" Unplanted cowards! The mercenary world doesn't need you soft eggs! β
Videos were inserted in the screen at the right time, all of which were not censored, and the appearance of those mercenaries making statements was unreservedly released to the audience.
These mercenaries are all fresh faces, and they are not the same ones that Su Mo met at the Longmen Restaurant yesterday.
Obviously, the Crow's Nest did not just dispatch Simon, but sent a large number of men to threaten the mercenaries who stretched their hands too long.
Regardless of the past experiences of these mercenaries, the issuance of such a statement basically means the death of society.
The mercenary world is brutal.
If credibility is the hard wealth of the middleman, then the hard wealth of the mercenary is strength.
Recording this kind of video is undoubtedly telling everyone in disguise - I was threatened by border groups, I can't deal with them, I am a waste.
The intermediary will not find a waste to issue a commission.
The mercenary world doesn't need waste either.
There are only two endings left for these mercenaries.
Or take the rest of the garbage from others for the rest of your life, and do the dirty work that those dogs don't do.
Either you just retire and change careers.
Dongdong was also having breakfast at this time, she looked at the TV and frowned and said, "These mercenaries are really useless, what is there to be afraid of in the crow's nest?" I've beaten a crownest man before. β
Su Mo was stunned: "Huh? Who did you beat? β
Dong Dong: "A peripheral horseboy, seeing my young age, wanted to touch me, and was broken seven or eight teeth by me with a stick." His eldest brother felt ashamed and didn't come to trouble me. β
Su Mo laughed, he thought for a while, and asked, "Knock knock, let me ask you something, what would you do if the people from the Crow's Nest threatened you to record this kind of video?" β
Dong Dong didn't think twice: "them!" Can this be endured? β
Su Mo: "What if the other party is stronger than you, and you can't beat them?" β
Dongdong's bionic prosthetic tail can sense the human body's reaction, and at this time, the hair on her tail stands up and explodes, and the milk fiercely says: "Then I will tie a bomb and die with them!" If you don't make me comfortable, then no one can think about it! β
Su Mo: "It's my cub. β
While chatting, Su Mo's cell phone rang, and it was O'Diana calling.
Su Mo walked outside the door and picked up the phone: "Lady Count." β
Odiana asked solemnly, "Housheng, has the Crow's Nest ever sent someone to look for you?" β
Sumer: "Yes, Simon came to me yesterday. β
O'Diana: "Simon of the Seven in the Raven's Nest?" This guy is not easy to deal with, you were videotaped by him? β
Su Mo: "No, I managed to slip away. β
It was obvious that O'Diana's tone became appreciative: "You can always surprise me by being able to get out of Simon's hands." β
Su Mo smiled: "It's not as easy as I imagined, the situation was quite dangerous at that time." β
O'Diana said briskly: "The process is not important, I only look at the result." You've done a great job. β
Speaking of this, she sighed softly: "This incident has caused me a headache, and I don't know who to send a bunch of border commissions to my hands." As soon as the crow's nest was like this, the mercenaries were a little scared. β
Su Mo: "I'm sorry, I also have to avoid the limelight during this time, so I won't accept the border commission for the first time." Why don't you look for the big mercenary groups? β
O'Diana: "Don't mention it, the big mercenary group is much more forward-looking than you newcomers, they have been smelling the wind since the second half of the year, and they don't take over the work on the border." β
Su Mo: "It's normal, the king election is becoming more and more intense, especially this year, the crow's nest was challenged by wolf attacks, and the status is not as stable as in previous years, they will do whatever it takes to win people's hearts, and everyone dare not stir it in." β
O'Diana: "Well, let's do it for now, and it's wise to avoid the crow's nest." Do you have any other commissions on your side? A few of them are done in the inner city, which is relatively simple and not very well-paid, but can be used as a transition. β
Su Mo didn't hesitate: "Pick up, simple is better." I have accepted a newcomer with great potential, just so that she can practice alone. β
O'Diana: "Yes, there's a debt collection commission here. There is a company called Hongdong Real Estate that owes our employer money for the project. β
"The contract is everything, but Hongdong Real Estate has played some tricks to hollow out the company whose name is left on the contract, and all the assets have been transferred to the new company, resulting in the inability to enforce the judgment."
"The employer wanted us to help recover the construction money, but he didn't want to get into a lawsuit, so he asked us not to use violent means and only to get the money back in a legal way."
Su Mo smiled after hearing this.
Can't use violence? This is the most troublesome thing for Dongdong.
But it's okay, I happened to take this opportunity to test Dongdong and sharpen her temperament.
Mercenaries are not thugs, as Su Mo said to Dongdong before - not everything has to be solved by violence.
Although Dongdong is a combatant, he is also pinned on by Su Mo and will be on his own in the future.
Just take this opportunity to see how Dongdong will deal with the first independent commission in his life.
After finalizing the details, Su Mo hung up the phone, checked the information in the mailbox, and then told Dongdong about it.
"You can't use violence?" Dongdong, who was lying on the sofa eating potato chips, raised his head and said dissatisfiedly, "Why is the employer like this, isn't this deliberately making things difficult." β
Su Mo shook his head and said, "How can it be called deliberate difficulty?" Different employers have different needs, and what we mercenaries have to do is to give employers the best results. β
Dongdong thought for a while and asked, "So this time you want me to go alone, won't you come with me?" β
Su Mo: "Yes, it's time for you to develop some independent abilities, I can't take you forever." β
Dong Dong whispered, "What if I mess up?" β
Su Mo deliberately provoked her: "Thinking about messing up before you even started, it's not like what you would say." Are you cowardly? β
Knock Dong was unexpectedly fooled, and slammed the sofa hard: "Hmph, who said I was cowardly?" You wait, isn't it just debt collection, can you still be difficult to fall me? β
Before knocking out the door, Su Mo repeatedly admonished: "Remember, you must not commit any violent acts, otherwise this commission will be considered a failure." β
Dong Dong didn't wave his hand back: "Got it, boss, you can rest." β
Although this commission was completed by Dongdong independently, Su Mo was not idle.
He planned to secretly follow Dongdong the whole time and observe her performance.
In case of any unforeseen circumstances, he would intervene in time.
The test is a test, and you can't go back to O'Diana with a failed result, otherwise you will lose a big one because of a small one.
If you don't need to shoot by yourself the whole time, then you can really let go and let Dongdong fly by himself.
In order to facilitate observation, Su Mo brought a drone made in the future and kept a distance from Dongdong that would not be detected.
The target of this commission, "Red Winter Real Estate", is a construction company established in the inner city, and there are a large number of commercial debt disputes.
Its legal person, "Lu Li", was a chicken thief, and secretly transferred all his assets to another company before he had a premonition that the debt was about to explode.
As a result, Hongdong Real Estate has no legally enforceable assets, and the debt is relied on.
That's what Knock Knock wants to solve.
The office building of Hongdong Real Estate is in the rusty wall area, Dong Dong took a car, and soon arrived, and walked directly into the door.
Sumer's drone hovered by the window, secretly observing her every move.
As soon as Dong Dong came in, a clerk spotted her: "Are you?" β
Dong Dong chewed bubble gum and said bluntly: "Ask your boss Lu Li to come out." β
Clerk: "What are you looking for a boss?" β
Knock Knock: "He owes money, tell him to come out and pay it back." β
The surrounding employees laughed, and the clerk also sneered: "Where did the little beggar come from, went to the wrong place, and came to the real estate company to ask for money?" Get out! β
"You're special!." Knock picked up his chair and was about to slam it over.
But she quickly remembered the limitations of this commission, so she could only put down her chair patiently: "What did you do, and you don't have any points in your heart?" It's a man who will return the money, don't be a fool! β
At this time, a man with a big black mole on his face walked over, he was the legal person of Hongdong Real Estate, Lu Li.
Lu Li looked Dong Dong up and down, and said jokingly: "If you don't study well at a young age, you will learn to beg for money?" You're not ashamed. β
Dong Dong glared and said, "It's better than you old man who doesn't pay his debts!" β
Lu Li looked like a ruffian: "Debt? I have handed over all the assets that can be mortgaged in Hongdong Real Estate, what else do you want me to do? Do you understand what a limited liability system is? β
Dong Dong scolded: "How much are those broken tables and chairs you handed over?" You just exploit loopholes, what is it called, malicious, maliciously, anyway, you deliberately owe money and don't pay it back, and you want to take the debt! β
Lu Li leaned forward and put his face in front of Dong Dong: "Come on, come on, then you hit me?" Anyway, if you want money, you don't accept and punch me in the face? See if I don't report the crime and arrest you! β
Dong Dong held back the fire in his belly, and said angrily: "I remember you!" Don't go to the border, or you'll blow your head off! β
Lu Li still has that dead-faced appearance: "It doesn't matter, who will go to that kind of garbage place on the border?" And I bought myself a full set of personal accident insurance, and if something happens, I have a sky-high insurance premium. If you have a kind, me. β
Dongdong gritted his teeth, pointed to Lu Li's nose and said, "You wait for me!" β
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Lu Li kept taunting her back: "Hurry up and climb back, mourning dog, just learn from others to collect debts with this little ability?" I don't look at how many pounds and taels I have. β
Dong Dong didn't speak, and left Red Winter Real Estate directly.
After observing what happened just now, Su Mo was still quite relieved.
At least Dong Dong suppressed his temper and did not violate the rules of entrustment.
It shows that this little guy is really at ease about this matter.
I just don't know what to do next?
In fact, in Su Mo's view, this commission is not difficult, and there are many ways to solve it.
Violence cannot be used?
Okay.
I went to your house to cook for your parents and care for the lonely and widowed elderly, but I accidentally put too much seasoning and had diarrhea after eating, this is not a violent means, right?
I went to pick up your child from school and took her to the amusement park to play, but the phone happened to run out of battery and lost contact for a few hours, isn't this a violent means?
Or the simplest, I get a debt repayment contract, steal your new company's official seal in the middle of the night, stamp it, and transfer the debt, this is not a violent means, right?
To deal with Lao Lai, Su Mo has at least nine ways, nine ways.
I don't know what Knock Knock will do.
After Knock Knock left, he came back half an hour later.
When he saw what Dongdong was holding, Su Mo was startled.
She actually went to get a pig-killing knife???
Is this going in and cutting people?!
I saw Dongdong coming to the Hongdong Real Estate office building with a pig-killing knife, and did not enter the door, but sat on the side of the road outside the door.
She took a whetstone from her bosom and placed it on the ground, and began to sharpen it.
"Rustleβ"
The pig-killing knife slashed across the whetstone, and the sound of roughness was constantly heard.
Time passed slowly.
Dong Dong is a knife that has been sharpened there for half an hour
At this time, Lu Li walked out with a few security guards and looked at Dong Dong vigilantly: "What do you want to do with a knife?" β
Dong Dong didn't speak, and continued to sharpen his knife.
Lu Li's voice was a few degrees higher: "I asked what you want to do?!" β
Dong Dong scolded back: "It's about your hammer!" I didn't join your company! This highway is built by your family? What do I love to do, can I control you?! β
Seeing that he continued to sharpen his knife after scolding, Lu Li had no choice but to drop the cruel words: "I'll see how long you can survive!" β
After Lu Li left, Dongdong sharpened the knife for an afternoon, and the originally heavy pig-killing knife was sharpened to the point that it was almost ready to cut paper.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, a taxi stopped at the entrance of Hongdong Real Estate.
A businessman in a suit stepped out of the car, he was just about to enter the office building of Hongdong Real Estate, and the whole person was frightened.
I saw a little Lori with a gloomy face sitting at the door, carrying a snowy pig-killing knife in her hand, and staring at him with a cold gaze while sharpening the knife to make a rustling sound.
The businessman swallowed his throat and was trying to get past her
"Sand! Sand! Sand!." The sound of sharpening the knife became louder, and the pig-killing knife rubbed against the whetstone vigorously, and it burst out with fire.
Little Lori stared at the business person gloomily, as if she was going to eat people, and he was too frightened to go forward.
"What a situation. Is this a madman in a mental hospital escaping? β
The business people were afraid of being cut, so they quickly avoided this crazy little Lori and left in a hurry.
Some time later, several more business people arrived.
They had made an appointment to talk to Lu Li about things, but they were all frightened by the knock of grinding knives outside the door.
Dong Dong sharpened his knife viciously, and glared at whoever dared to step forward, staring at these people in a cold sweat, and no one dared to take a step inside.
Lu Li rushed out after receiving the news and scolded Dongdong: "Are you sick?" Get out of here, don't interfere with my business! β
He walked over to reassure the frightened business people and led them to the office building: "Little madman from nowhere, don't care, please come in." β
"Bell!" Knock Dong coldly slashed to the ground.
The sharp pig-killing knife slashed into the ground, and an innocent beetle passing by was split in half alive.
Dongdong's eyes widened, and he wiped his knife with his sleeve like a perverted murderer, staring at these business people fiercely.
The person who was being held was frightened, pushed Lu Li's hand away, and said, "Boss Lu, there seems to be some dispute between you and this girl." I'm still not going in, so let's talk by phone then. β
"Hey, wait, don't go, I haven't taken you on a tour yet" Lu Li tried to stay, but the other party left in a hurry.
The customer was scared away, and Lu Li was angry and cursed Dongdong: "Cut off my financial route? Believe it or not, I'll let people kill you! β
Dong Dong sneered, still did not speak, and continued to grind the knife back and forth on the whetstone.
"Rustleβ"
Dong Dong was sharpened until the night, and the knife was worn out, and all seven business people who wanted to come to discuss business were scared away by her.
After Red Winter Real Estate got off work, Dongdong also went home to sleep.
The next day, she got up early in the morning, went to the supermarket to buy a pig-killing knife, and sat at the door of Hongdong Real Estate to continue sharpening the knife.
Throughout the morning, the visiting guests were scared away by the knock, and Lu Li's plan was completely disrupted.
Lu Li was so angry that he was about to scold his mother, so he directly called the Public Security Bureau to report the case.
The sheriff is coming, but there is no way to take the dongdong.
Because in the strict sense, Dongdong did not violate the public security management regulations.
Her pig-killing knife is a civilian knife bought in a supermarket, not a controlled knife, and is allowed to be possessed by the public.
The place where she sharpened her knife was a highway, which was a public area, and did not infringe on the rights and interests of Hongdong Real Estate.
As for those business people who are scared away
Dongdong neither attacked them nor verbally threatened them, just glared at them.
You can't say that staring is a crime, right?
And most importantly
He was only 14 years old.
It's an almost invincible age.
Don't talk about staring at people, you can't be locked up for a few years if you really stab someone to death.
Even if she is summoned back to the Security Bureau for routine interrogation, after an hour of questioning, she continues to sit at the door to sharpen her knife after she comes out, what does it matter?
After the report was reported, the sheriff didn't come directly, so he threw down a sentence on the phone - it can't be managed, you can mediate by yourself.
This made Lu Li worried.
This little Lori is a pure scoundrel, she doesn't listen to scolding, she can't drive away, and she doesn't care about it and affects her business.
What if violence drove her away, in case she lay down on the ground and said that she would not get up without 200,000?
If you say that the sharpening of the knife two days ago only caused some obstacles to Lu Li.
After all, business does not have to be interviewed in person, you can call, send email, or make an appointment to talk outside, which is nothing more than inefficient.
Then what happened later was completely unexpected by Lu Li.
The reason was that a passer-by passed by the door of Hongdong Real Estate and thought it was funny to see the grinding knife, so he took a photo and posted it on the Internet.
This photo was captured at a good time, the sun was shining in the early morning, Dong Dong stood up with a black cat tail, and the sun set on her face to form a soft halo, which was as beautiful as an oil painting.
However, such a cute cat lady is sharpening with a pig-killing knife in her hand, and this composition is full of absurd black humor.
Soon, this picture was wildly reprinted by major marketing accounts, and the topic of [Knife Sharpening Cat Lady] directly rushed to the hot search.
Everyone is speculating about what kind of creature this cat lady is?
Why do such an abstract act as sharpening knives?
There are also countless big Internet celebrities who follow the trend of COS, buy black cat tails and pig-killing knives, and take photos and short videos like Dong Dong, and the topic has reached the first place on the hot search list in just a few hours.
Later, this online carnival evolved offline.
The local two-dimensional house in Crescent City took the lead in dispatching, gathering at the gate of Hongdong Real Estate with cameras one by one, frantically surrounding Dongdong real people.
The major newspapers also set off collectively, including many media leaders such as "New Moon Morning", and reporters came to the scene to follow up and report, and made the knife sharpening cat girl a special seminar.
Of course, the Internet celebrity anchors who like to rub the heat did not let go of this opportunity.
Douyue's self-media operation, Yuebo's big V bloggers, and the up masters of the monthly station flocked to the city, bringing their mobile phones around Dongdong to broadcast live.
Whoever can make Dongdong enter the camera, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room will increase several times.
And just like that, because of a casual photo, a runaway carnival began.
