Chapter 96 Homecoming
I made a mute call in the public telephone booth, but no one answered the other end of the phone. Could it be that this kid didn't answer the call from strangers? I thought about it, then looked for the clerk of Qibaiju and dialed it again on the phone in their store. This time someone answered it. The other party nodded, and raised his tone slightly, indicating that no matter who you are, you should say something quickly and let it go if you have anything to do.
I suppressed the anger in my heart and said, "The news you gave me is fake!"
The mute heard that it was me and said coldly: "What's the use of pursuing this now?"
I felt so uncomfortable and said, "I thought you were being monitored by Master Bai San, so the topic of the conversation was leaked. Do you know that I was actually worried about you? I understand, completely understand, Wu Shui, you are cruel enough."
On the other end of the phone, the mute said without saying anything. After a moment of silence, he said: "You are meaningless to say these things now. I don't have time to explain these things to you, but I advise your girlfriend to be more careful."
I was shocked and said, "What do you mean..." Before I could finish speaking, the phone hung up.
I held the microphone, and several thoughts turned around in my mind. After recalling the conversation, I found that the mute did not deny that it was given false news, but in the same way, he did not admit it, just unwilling to mention this matter. And now, what does he mean to ask Wenmin and me to be careful? Could it be...
I thought of Mr. Bai San.
Although I only met him once and Mr. Bai San looked kind, I knew that was just an appearance. Although I didn’t have too many datings with Mr. Bai San, just this time I put the police on the same position, it was not a good role to be with.
Could it be that Mr. Bai San will attack Wen Min?
Wen Min is a policeman and has a strong backstage relationship. Anyone who is in the underworld doesn’t like the police, but no one will seek revenge on the police. After all, this is someone’s professional need. If one policeman is killed, there will be another one. Unless there is a special situation, there is very little revenge on the police.
What did the mute say to remind me?
But then, I discovered something wrong. The news was passed on by me. Logically, even if Mr. Bai San should deal with people, he should look for me first. How could he cross me and go against Wenmin directly?
You don't think I'm handsome, right?
After thinking about it, I couldn't figure it out. In desperation, I had to go back to Zhuan's house.
As soon as he got home, Tofu came up and said, "Old Chen, hurry up and buy a cell phone. Beauty Gu can't find you, so the phone call me here."
I said, "What did she say?"
Tofu's eyes rolled, his shoulder rubbed me, and he laughed, saying, "You ask yourself, but I think it's a good thing. It seems that I want to invite you to dinner together." I thought to myself, Wenmin is having a headache because of this smuggling case, so how could he be in the mood to eat at this time? It's probably because Tofu's own unreliable guess, so he went back on Tofu's phone.
Wenmin seemed a little nervous on the other end of the phone. I noticed that she was breathing a little fast. After a moment, she cleared her throat and said, "Are you free in the evening? My father wants to see you."
I just felt my throat tightening, and I thought to myself that this ugly son-in-law was not ready to see my father-in-law, why did this happen suddenly?
Wen Min's voice was helpless and said, "My father learned about this action. He later transferred his relationship and knew it was the news you sent. In addition, you said that you were my boyfriend at that time, so..." I understood that it was probably the news revealed by the little policeman before. So he comforted him, "See you as soon as possible, I'm ready."
Wen Min said: "There is another point. He must have guessed what you are doing. Because you had a criminal record before, ordinary police could not see it. My father could get it out. So, you have to be honest. If you hide it, he will definitely be angry." Wen Min and I discussed the details of our future father-in-law. Seeing that it was getting late, I went to buy some gifts and took a taxi to the address given by Wen Min in the afternoon.
The location of her house is a bit off and has never been moved. It is a separate small foreign building with a bit old shape. Wenmin said that his father is very low-key in this regard and is mostly abroad. He will come back if he has something to do.
When I arrived at the place, it was Wenmin who opened the door for me. She asked me to turn around and take me in. I saw an old man wearing glasses and slightly fat in his body sitting on the sofa in the living room on the first floor. His hair was half white and rough. According to traditional physiognomy, people with rough and hard hair were also very strong and stubborn, and they were generally difficult to deal with.
"Hello, Uncle Gu."
He glanced at me and asked me to sit without being restrained. It was pretty good on the surface, but I didn't see any hostility. Although I don't like to be noisy, I am never vague in the way I should be careful. I had already revealed Gu's father's preferences to Wenmin in advance, and started talking along the topic, and they were having a good conversation. Wenmin seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, smiled slightly, and said to cut some fruit for us and left. I knew the topic was about to come. Sure enough, as soon as Wenmin left, Gu's father changed the subject and said, "I have heard about you, thank you for your care for Minmin."
Minmin? It should be a nickname.
I said, "Uncle, you are polite. Actually, Wenmin helped me a lot. I am very grateful to her for respecting her."
He didn't say anything, and after a moment, he said: "The old saying goes, "Good family is equal. Although the times are different now, the things left by our ancestors are not unreasonable. I also know your conditions, and I should know what you have, and I won't say anything extra."
I was a little embarrassed for a moment, but I didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward. Father Gu said, "I have been abroad for a long time and I don't like to talk around the bush. Your conditions are not bad, but you are not suitable."
I didn't expect to be so tit-for-tat, but since it has happened, I can't back down, so I said, "I'm not a lazy or irresponsible person, I will take care of her."
"What care do you take? Theft of cultural relics? Do you know that this is illegal? Even if you are smart and the law cannot sanction you, can you continue to take risks like this? The portal I refer to is not money. I am just a daughter, a young man, she is very capable and does not need anyone to support her. I just hope that my daughter can have a stable and harmonious family. And you are a person who may die outside at any time and face crime at any time."
These words made me speechless.
In fact, I have not thought about these problems. Even the curse on my body has not been eliminated. I once tried to push her away, but human feelings cannot be controlled by reason. I found this difficult.
The only thing I can do now is to find a way to solve the curse. As long as the curse problem ends, I will no longer have to fight.
These plans have been in my heart and are quietly going on. I originally planned to brief my father after everything is stable, but the current situation is really unfavorable to me. His words made me think deeply: What if the curse is on me like this, if I can't find a way to crack it?
Wen Min's face flashed through my mind, followed by tofu, and then some friends, and finally stopped in a photo. Chen Ci's cold eyes in the photo pierced into my mind through memory.
At this moment, Wenmin brought the fruit to the table. She observed Gu's father's expression. Seeing that Gu's father had a smile on his face, she thought we were having a good chat, so she smiled. I felt a little guilty and was about to speak. Suddenly, Wenmin's eyes moved and his eyes suddenly stared out the window. It was already seven o'clock in the evening. An aunt at home was cooking, probably because she had a temporary idea, so the meal was a bit late.
Wenmin looked out the window, and there was a hazy dark night illuminated by lights.
She whispered: "I have a feeling that someone is staring at us."
Gu's father frowned, looked at the location of the window, and seemed to have thought of something, and got up and prepared to sit on the other side.
I couldn't help but remember what the mute said during the day. I knew Wenmin was a very alert person. Could it be that there was really someone outside the window?
I got up and walked to the window and looked out. In the darkness, in the dim light, I suddenly found a vague figure on the top of a foreign building opposite me. He seemed to be lying down. I was shocked and suddenly pulled Wenmin next to him to the wall behind me and said, "It may be a sniper."
"Sniper?" Gu's father frowned and then snorted.
Wen Min said: "No, if it were just a sniper, he would have been able to do it long ago. Could it be..." We looked at each other and thought of a possibility. Could it be a blasting bomb? Almost at the same time, we both suddenly moved away from the window. I pulled Mr. Gu and said: "Hurry up, run in!"
As soon as I finished speaking, I felt that the room was bright, which was a brightness different from the lights. I heard a loud bang in my ears, and a heat wave mixed with gravel and other things came from behind. Subconsciously, I pounced Wen Min in front of me and crushed to the ground, and knew nothing.
The moment I fainted, I had only one thought: I, the surname Bai, you are so cruel and ruthless, I, Chen Xuan, will kill you one day!
