Chapter 26: The Storm Ahead
The original coercion had changed its nature when Bai Ning "could learn the real killing technique". Before there was still a complicated mind in my heart, temporarily buried in the deepest part, in the case of seeing the conference table being split in half, more people here are willing to walk into this eunuch gate, after all, they are not so rare when they have money, but such martial arts are rare to see again, who doesn't want to learn?
Yin Jiuling looked at the unruly figures and bowed down, and his heart was somewhat mixed, these people also had ideas at the beginning, fought a few times, and played a few tricks, but the other party was not a fool, after no result, plus the age also came up, his original intention to dominate the underground world of Chongbin was also lightened, and he became a respected senior.
Who knows, in the short time tonight, things will be unexpected for him...... These people just compromised.
β...... Tonight is the end of the matter for the time being, but some of these people may be suspicious when they go back, and maybe they will make trouble from it, and there will be no such people left... Dafu, if you pay close attention to this aspect, those people are also able to bend and stretch, and it is possible that they can kneel down today just to get out. β
Late at night, the sound of the raindrops crackling in the sky and earth turned back in the corridor, Bai Ning walked forward with his hand in his hand, and said some words to Hai Dafu who followed beside him, in fact, even if he didn't say it, as the great eunuch who had presided over the center of the East Factory for many years, how could he not have a heart.
"The old slave knows. Hai Dafu bowed, "So that the overseer can rest assured, if there are people in the middle who have other thoughts, the old slave will let others deal with it, so that we will be less exposed." β
"You're getting into the groove quickly. Bai Ning looked at him with a smile, pushed the door and walked out, it was raining heavily outside, a clammy cold came over, and a Ben Chi had been parked at the gate, he turned to Hai Dafu and said: "Ben Du will go back first, if Mrs. sleeps until midnight and no one is seen, she should call." In the meantime, it is up to Dafu to worry about it. β
"Yes. β
Hai Dafu went over to open the car door, "Gonggong Cao has another layer of identity, he has to go back to work during the day, Gao Muen can't do anything, it's already commendable to be like this today......"
After Bai Ning got into the car, he said the last sentence: "Only in this way may the old slave regain the feeling of presiding over the East Factory." β
"Go for it. Bai Ning sighed, "Don't work as hard as you did when you get here, live this life well." β
Hai Dafu lowered his head, a look that was difficult for outsiders to see floated on his face, and his tone was a little choked: "The overseer should live well, he worked much harder than the old slave in his previous life." β
The two talked for a while, and when they talked about the beginning, they couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic. After the separation, Hai Dafu watched the car disappear into the rain, he turned around and returned to the building, Yin Jiuling was still waiting for him inside, for this old man, with Hai Dafu's experience of living for a long time, how could he not know that the other party had a thousand waves in his heart.
He left the other party behind, naturally there are other uses, the control of the eunuch gate over the gangs below, how to screen and promote some people to enter the eunuch gate, and how to prevent the news from leaking out, bits and pieces of things, and many more, enough for Hai Dafu to be busy during this time.
As he said, only in this way can he feel that in addition to his martial arts, he is not a wasted person.
β...... The rise of my eunuch is unstoppable, who stands in the way......!
After the meeting, after the bigwigs left, Cao Shaoqing drove the car on the street, the wipers kept shaking in his sight, but in his ears and mind, he still recalled the words that the nine thousand years old said before, and the long-buried emotions in his heart faintly rushed out of the veins.
Although the times are different, he still has expectations for the future of the eunuch gate, even though he knows that the road ahead may be much more difficult than when Chitose founded the East Factory, at least he has taken a step. At the beginning, Dongchang didn't evolve from a vicious dog to a yamen at the pinnacle of power, and even overwhelmed the imperial power, Cao Shaoqing naturally had confidence.
The orange street lamp, the car passed through, and on a certain section of the road, in the misty rain curtain connecting the heavens and the earth, a drenched figure walked in the rain, and it was not difficult to find that it was a woman who had met twice with his eyesight.
Cao Ruolin walked in a trance in the heavy rain, the purple short skirt was tightly attached to the body and convex with a seductive curve, her eyes looked at the ripples in the water on the ground, and then stepped on it, and the high heels slowly moved forward.
β... You are a star, it's true that you are a big star, but have you ever thought about the difficulties of my boyfriend, I can't walk on the street with you, and I can't say to my friends and relatives around me: I have a girlfriend, I'm about to get married, her name is Cao Ruolinββ",
"I'm a normal man, and I need someone to accompany me......"
β... With you, I'm also under pressure. I'm just an ordinary person, I don't have money or a car, you give me money to spend, buy me a car, buy a house, but... Can... As a man, I feel small, small in front of you, you know?"
"I don't want to get married in the future... I'm sitting at home, and watching you on TV, I don't want to see you in TV dramas, movies, seeing you and the main actor hugging and hugging, kissing and kissing, even if I know it's filming, but I can't stand it, I can't stand it, don't you understand?"
β... It's better not to get married..."
......
Cao Ruolin raised her face and looked at the street lamp, sniffed, wiped her fingers under her eyes, maybe the reflection of the light, her eyes were shining, she noticed that after a car passed by, she slowed down in front and stopped on the side of the road.
The high heels walked slowly past, and there was vigilance in her eyes, when the car window squeezed the water stains and put it down, and the sound of a guzheng came out inside, and she saw a man wearing gold wire glasses.
"Get in the car. Cao Shaoqing is just two simple words.
The woman standing outside the car trembled, she knew who the other party was, even if she was in a very bad mood at this time, or she hugged the other party's idea of killing herself without saying a word to relieve her pain, opened the car door and sat in.
The car was a little dilapidated, and it was not spacious inside, and in the co-pilot's seat, Cao Ruolin could only tiptoe to hold the white dragon sword leaning there in her arms, and her pale lips opened slightly: "Thank you." β
The voice was very soft, and I don't know if the person next to me heard it, there was no response, only the sound of the guzheng was still playing, and the sound of heavy rain hitting the body.
After a while, Cao Shaoqing suddenly spoke: "That man lost you, do you regret not killing him that night?"
When the voice of sudden speech came, the woman sat there holding the white dragon sword and looked at the heavy rain outside the window in a daze, and then after hearing the voice, she shook her head: "Actually, he is very good to me on weekdays, and he is tolerant of me, even if he knows that I am a little fond of vanity, he just smiles and is fine...... Would you kill someone who is good to you...... And I'm not a killer either, I've even killed chickens...... How to kill. β
So, he put his arms around the other woman. Cao Shaoqing's words stabbed to the point.
β... Do you have to say this at this time?"
Cao Ruolin bit her lip, sniffed her nose, her face was aggrieved, she just tried not to let herself cry, and her voice trembled slightly: "Is it wrong for me to be a star? I walked up step by step on my own, why did he say that me, his father was seriously ill, and I took the money, at that time I felt that since it was his girlfriend, he should share it, he has worked hard in this city for so many years, and the rental house he has been sitting in is still shared with others, I bought him a set, why is he unhappy?" I saw that he was crowded on the bus every day to and from work, so I bought him a car, so as not to suffer in summer and winter, why did he still hug the woman outside and say that he was not doing well?"
"You don't understand a man's self-esteem. The figure holding the steering wheel said coldly.
"You know, aren't you a eunuch?"
Squeak β
The tires suddenly locked and braked in the stagnant water, Cao Ruolin was bumped headlong on the center console in front, and leaned back on the seat back, her eyes stabilized, and she saw the figure next to her staring at her coldly.
She said something for a while, and only then did she remember the other party's original identity, and her chest rose and fell in fright, thinking that she would be killed in the next second.
However, the person on the opposite side turned his head again, and the body started driving again.
"I'll kill you before I do that...... This time, for the sake of being a friend of the Overseer, don't have a next time. β
After all, Cao Ruolin was born as a professional actor, and she also has a set of character psychology for figuring out the script, and when she saw that the other party didn't kill her, she became a little bolder.
"Today... I see you chop off a man's hand... The ground is covered with blood, why are you cutting off his hands, aren't you the principal of the elementary school?"
"It's none of your business. β
β... That Bai Muqiu, he... Is it really the 9,000-year-old Dongchang? It was the Wu Dynasty... Did you all live to make it this far?"
"Shut up. β
"This sword... It's so wide... You should know how to swordsmanship? My next play is a costume, are you interested in making a cameo?"
β......β
......
On the short way of questioning and silent answering, the car turned to the hotel where he went to catch the leopard before, and after stopping, Cao Shaoqing stared at the falling rain curtain, "Get out of the car." β
The woman pursed her lips, glanced at the hotel over there, and her expression, which was still quite interested, dimmed, put the white dragon sword aside, and walked down slowly, watching the car that still had her residual heat go backwards, turn, and then disappear into the rain.
She lowered her head, slowly walked to her BMW, opened it, sat in it with her face buried in the crook of her arm, and cried out one after another.
On the same rainy night, in a different city, an old man stared at an ancient painting on the wall.
β...... Who the hell are you? β
Knock Knock β
There were two knocks behind him, and then he opened it, and the light from the corridor outside entered the office that was not very bright, and a well-shaped woman leaned against the door frame, "Yang Bureau, the members of the elite group are almost here, and Black Fire and Juyan have also received news, they will rush back as soon as possible after dealing with the matter in hand, it should be within half a month." β
"Hmm. The old man in front of the wall answered.
The woman at the door walked in with her round buttocks twisted, sat on the sofa for hospitality, folded her hands and looked like a lady: "I heard from the people in the group, the enemy we are going to fight this time may be extraordinary, Qi Shouheng died, and the bullet in the head has been taken away...... We have very little information at hand. β
"Take it away, it means that it was a traitor, it is a disaster for such a person to stay in the organization, this operation, let's solve it together, your ability is one of the best in the group, I believe you." β
"Cai Zhao or Dongfang Xu?"
The old man lit a cigarette, "Dongfang Xu can't be, this person is a hard bone that I picked up with one hand, he is stubborn, he came back for two days, and he came over again and again to let me dial someone for him, the traitor will not be him, on the contrary, I prefer to believe that it is Cai Zhao, she is parachuted down from above, although it has been a year or two, but outsiders are outsiders after all." β
"Okay, when the time comes to Chongbin, we will dispose of her together, and we will be martyred. β
The old man shook off the ashes of his cigarette and nodded with a smile.
