Chapter 55 Wanted(1/2)
Criminal
The three men sitting at the table in the corner by the window were very alert.
The position where they were sitting was very special, and their sight range almost included the entire Nancheng Hotel.
So even though Gu Xi quickly looked away just now, that casual glance still aroused the alertness of one of the men.
Originally this was nothing, but who would have thought that right after, Qi Xiang would look up so carelessly and blatantly.
The three men looked at each other, stood up and were about to pay and leave.
But just then.
"Hey, are those people from the special service team..." Qi Xiang's eyes went straight past the three men and fell on the group of people who suddenly appeared at the gate. Before his mind could react, he took Wei Heng's hand and asked
came out.
Gu Xi felt bad in her heart.
Sure enough, when I looked up, I saw the expressions of the three men sitting in the corner changing slightly, and they started to run away without thinking.
Two of them jumped out of the window, but the remaining one rushed directly towards their private room.
When the familiar space fluctuations came, Gu Xi's pupils shrank suddenly. Without any time to say anything, he reached out and grabbed Qi Xiang's arm and rolled on the spot.
Qi Xiang was dragged to the ground by Gu Xi in a hurry. He accidentally knocked over the bowls and chopsticks in front of him, and the delicate tableware fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
On the side, Wei Heng had already exchanged hands with that man.
To be able to compete with Wei Heng, this person's skills are obviously very good.
Gu Xi narrowed his eyes slightly.
at this time.
"Bang! Bang——"
Gunshots rang out, and the entire hotel instantly became chaotic, with screams happening one after another.
The chaos came unexpectedly.
Gu Xi stared at the cloth bag on the man's waist, his heart beating like a drum and his blood boiling, but his face didn't change much.
But Qi Xiang, who was pulled aside by her, finally reacted: "Gu, Gu Xi..."
The private room was extremely messy, the dining table fell to the floor, and uneaten fruit and food were scattered on the floor. This was the first time Qi Xiang encountered such a situation, and he was a little confused for a moment.
As a result, at this moment, the man made a feint and dodged Wei Heng's attack, turned around and rushed towards Qi Xiang.
Qi Xiang was so frightened that her face turned pale, thinking that she was a koi luck wielder with almost zero strength!
It's over now.
Qi Xiang closed his eyes nervously.
Fortunately, Gu Xi was nearby and quickly gave her a hand, and she narrowly missed the man.
But the outside of my shoulder was bruised and painful from the man's impact.
The members of the special service team finally took control of the situation at this time.
The gunfire outside gradually subsided, and the three men were uniformed and taken away.
The situation was under control, and the manager of Nancheng Hotel finally arrived belatedly.
Gu Xi listened nearby and realized that today's incident turned out to be someone from the special service team tracking down the murderer.
The murderer was taken away and the matter seemed to be over, but Gu Xi and the others were asked to stay in the Nancheng Hotel and cooperate with the investigation.
Of course, they were not the only ones, everyone at the Nancheng Hotel was kept at noon today.
The garrison personnel at the base are still questioning one by one, probably wanting to investigate whether there are any accomplices of the murderers among these people?
Gu Xi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay. I'll take care of it later, and I should be able to leave soon." Wei Heng comforted her softly.
Probably because of the fight he had with that man just now, Wei Heng's usually pale face actually had a healthy blush.
Gu Xi nodded when she heard this. She was not afraid.
only……
Gu Xi looked up at Qi Xiang.
On the side, Wei Heng also followed her line of sight and looked over.
Qi Xiang's eyes widened, and he was still frightened at this moment: No, why are you looking at me?
At this moment, two garrison personnel walked up to the three of them.
Wei Heng took the initiative to negotiate.
He is the former deputy captain of the special service team, and the captain of the special service team who came to perform the mission this time was his former subordinate.
This identity can naturally withstand investigation.
Not to mention Huang Er, he is a local leader with a complex background and military connections...
Soon, several people were released.
During this period, Huang Er's personal terminal kept ringing.
He probably knew some inside information. After walking out of the Nancheng Hotel, he only exchanged a few brief greetings with Wei Heng, said to Gu Xi, "Not a good reception," and left in a hurry.
Gu Xi looked at the man's leaving figure, thoughtfully.
The reason why she agreed to cooperate with this man was because of his identity.
To be able to work as a middleman in a large base like Nancheng Base, and to be involved in the grain trade under the eyes of the authorities, people from all walks of life must know this person and have their own sources of information.
And what just happened obviously confirmed this.
Huang Er was able to get some inside information in such a short period of time... obviously his strength should not be underestimated.
At least in terms of sources, this man is unique.
What Gu Xi lacks most now is news, all kinds of news.
She needs to master a large amount of information and analyze effective intelligence from it, so as to speculate on what happened in the past thirty years, and what is happening now with her appearance!
Li Ming has always been in charge of intelligence work.
Although Gu Xi had never intervened, he had watched and witnessed it for so many years, so naturally he was not a novice.
Just like she was willing to pay part of her trust in exchange for Shen Yue's information; now, she is also willing to pay part of her food in exchange for Huang Er's source of information.
Although this deal was a bit risky for her, it was actually a good deal.
As for whether Huang Er would agree?
Gu Xi was not worried at all.
As long as she can continuously grow food with a low coefficient of variation, even if there is no Huang Er, there will still be Zhang San and Li Si...
Huang Er was previously chosen because he had a military background.
Now. Gu Xi's eyes fell on Huang Er's wrist, which obviously added another layer of insurance.
On the way back, Wei Heng frequently turned to look at Gu Xi, but hesitated to speak.
Gu Xi thought for a moment and realized what he was worried about, and asked bluntly: "Are you worried that the fight just now will arouse others' suspicion?"
"I'm a little worried." Wei Heng nodded, with a serious look on his face: "When I fought with that person just now, although I didn't use any superpowers,..." Anyone with a discerning eye can see the difference at a glance.
"But they don't have evidence, do they?" Gu Xi asked.
Based on Wei Heng's previous situation, once he invoked his superpower, he would be completely doomed, so without definite evidence, no one would force him to use his superpower to prove himself.
What's more, Wei Heng had served in the special service team for many years and made countless contributions during this period.
Gu Xi believes that the people above, even if they have doubts, will treat Wei Heng's problem with caution.
Wei Heng is not worried about himself, he is just worried...
"But," Wei Heng retracted his gaze and looked forward, worried: "Once the higher-ups start to suspect that my situation improves, I'm worried that they will investigate the people around me..."
There are no questions about the origins of Shen Yue and others and they can withstand any investigation.
But Gu Xi just...
"Have you all forgotten that you still have me?" At this moment, Qi Xiang suddenly said.
Seeing both of them looking over, she pointed at herself, blinked and said, "I'm a famous koi lucker. With me by your side, isn't it normal for Wei Heng's physical condition to improve?"
Anyway, things like koi luck are so illusory, who can explain it clearly?
Just fool around and that's it.
Gu Xi: "..."
Wei Heng: "..."
It seems... makes sense?
To be continued...
