The Hongye Gang is stationed in the open-air office on the top floor of Hongye Villa.
"These guys are very knowledgeable, it's hard to fool them..."
Sitting at his desk, bathed in the light of the crescent moon, wearing sunglasses, headphones in his ears, and an ancient gown, Lin Bo was looking at the documents in his hands and scratching his head with the help of a bright light.
"Dingle bell! Dingle bell! Dingle bell..."
A clear ringtone suddenly rang, and the landline phone placed next to the desk flashed with bright colorful lights.
"Hello?!"
Lin Bo, whose attention was attracted by the light, picked up the phone and yelled at the other end of the phone. After yelling, he realized that he seemed to have left his earphones on, so he quickly took off his earphones again and added, "Hello?"
"Uncle Lin, are you singing while dealing with gang affairs again?" A slightly helpless voice came from the other end of the phone.
Obviously this is not the first time the other party has encountered a situation like today.
"I can't help it. I'm getting older and it's easy to get sleepy if I don't listen to some stimulating music..." Lin Bo explained casually, and then asked thoughtfully:
"City Leader Zhao called at this time to settle the matter with our gang leader?"
"Uncle Lin, are you asking questions knowingly?" The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became more helpless:
"Don't you know how difficult your apprentice is? Not to mention that we have reached an agreement with him. It would be great if I don't let him get involved in District 24."
"What? From the tone of your voice, does it sound like you were tricked by our gang leader?" Lin Bo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
It's not because I heard that Zhao Wuyan was tricked by Fang Rui.
Instead, he was surprised that Fang Rui would call himself his disciple.
"Stealing the chicken will end up losing the rice. I originally wanted to trick this kid, but in the end, not only did this guy reveal his true strength, but I was also coerced by him to take on a task that was beyond my ability."
"Coercion? He still has the ability to coerce you into doing things?" Lin Bo couldn't help but raised his eyebrows again.
To be able to make a veteran like Zhao Wuyan so helpless, Fang Rui's performance seems to be even better than he imagined.
"Uncle Lin, are you sure you are not burying me and asking me to expose my own scars?"
"Of course not. Our gang leader and I have always been in charge of our own affairs. He usually doesn't report to me what he does. Of course, as far as his position is concerned, he really doesn't need to report to me, so I really don't know.
What did he do to you?"
"He asked me to talk to you about taking over Hongye with enough sincerity. He will completely delegate power to you, but this sincerity is really a bit too much." The other end of the phone paused, and then saw that Uncle Lin did not answer.
, seemed to be waiting for his next words, and simply continued:
"He asked me to find the 'Blood Red Bride' who killed Lin Bufan and hand it over to him."
"'Blood Red Bride'? Then this sincerity is indeed quite difficult..." Lin Bo raised his eyebrows again, and his eyes hidden under his sunglasses showed a clear color.
"Really? You said he's not a curser, so why does he want the 'Blood Red Bride'? He can't just want to become the host of the 'Blood Red Bride' in one step, right?"
"What he wants to do, if he doesn't tell you, then it's not convenient for me to reveal it." Lin Bo said with a smile on his lips:
"In short, what he said is absolutely true. Since he told you that sincerity is enough and the matter can be discussed, I will definitely comply with it."
"I also know that Gang Leader Fang can keep his word, but the problem is that the 'Blood Red Bride' is hard to find! I've been trying for almost two days, but I can't find any clues.
How about you, Uncle Lin, give me some help? After all, this 'Blood Red Bride' is also the cursed object identified by Gang Leader Fang, isn't it?! If we can find it as soon as possible, it will be a happy thing for us all."
"What can I do?" Lin Bo's smile became brighter and more meaningful, but his tone still pretended to be helpless and he said:
"I haven't even figured out how to do the next business between Hongye and District 22? How can I have time to help you find the 'Hongye Bride'?"
He knew that the purpose of Zhao Wuyan's cooperation with the Hongye Gang was to control the α restricted area, thereby controlling the remaining five urban areas, and using the resources of the five urban areas to concentrate on developing one city, so that the Zhao family could become an important family in the southeastern state.
He also knew that Fang Rui's purpose in asking him to use the α restricted area as a base to develop Hongye was to develop a business circle with the α restricted area as the center and six nearby urban areas as trading platforms, and then use this business circle as the core to expand to the surrounding areas.
Red leaves.
In other words, the two people have somewhat similar ideas, but their ultimate goals are different.
So he knew very well that Fang Rui would never let Hongye be merged into District 24.
In other words, it is absolutely impossible for Zhao Wuyan to find the sincerity of the 'Blood Red Bride'.
Then if Xu Bufan was really killed by the 'Blood Red Bride', it can only mean that the 'Blood Red Bride' is in Fang Rui's body.
This brat is shouting to catch the thief!
"Uncle Lin, I'm not afraid of a showdown with you." Zhao Wuyan continued to swim and said, unwilling to give up:
"Your apprentice has told me that the 'Blood Red Bride' is a cursed object that he must obtain. The reason why he has never become a cursed person is that he is waiting for the 'Blood Red Bride' to help him directly raise the lower limit of cursed objects to b
Level.
Therefore, regarding the matter of finding the ‘Blood Red Bride’, your apprentice is more anxious than me. If you help me find it, you are actually helping your apprentice to share his worries..."
"I work as his housekeeper every day. Am I not sharing his worries? If I give him a little more, do I still need my hair?"
"Then why don't you give me some red leaf support? Your people are much better at things like intelligence and investigation than mine. Whatever..."
"Xiao Zhao, how about we open the skylight and speak frankly..." Uncle Lin, who had obtained some core information about Fang Rui through Zhao Wuyan, was obviously in a good mood and gave the former advice without going around the bush:
"I know that our gang leader's performance today is very impressive, and our Hongye is now in the limelight. You want to come over to strengthen relations and tell the outside world that Hongye's hot cake is closer to your 24th. I am completely
Understandable.
But you are not the only one who is smart! You have the upper hand because you are close to the water, but the other city lords are not stupid either. They will probably call me soon... If I agree to lend you my manpower, then I will be the one calling me when the others call me.
To borrow or not to borrow?
Before you show your sincerity, we, Hongye, are not in a position to treat one another favorably or get too close to you."
"Uncle Lin, I..."
"Hey, don't be impatient... There are advantages to being first-come. For example, it is not convenient for us to take the initiative to establish contact with you, but you can take the initiative in advance, so that we are forced to accept your contact.
…”
"Lin Bo, what do you mean..."
"Hey! I didn't say anything! You can realize what is your own business. In short, time waits for no one. Those who set off early will definitely have the upper hand. What's more, you are already there.
It has taken over people and people.”
"I understand! I understand! I will arrange it immediately, thank you..."
"Um?!"
"Understood! Then I won't disturb you anymore! You are busy..."
"kindness"
…
"A non-cursed person who owns the 'Blood Red Bride'?"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Bo quickly took out a notebook from the drawer and murmured to himself while recording:
"This kid must have mastered other ways to recognize his master.
It seems that if you want to find out the details of this kid, you have to start from the Holy Land."
…
Inside the cargo box behind the Hongye Gang's big truck that was transformed into a temporary office:
"Master, does that police officer named Wang have something wrong with his aesthetics?"
As soon as the fire snake climbed in through the car window, he couldn't help but complain to Fang Rui.
"How to say?"
Fang Rui stopped working on his diary and raised his head to look at the fire snake.
"In order not to disturb you, the three of us went to sunbathe under the moon on the top of the sports car...
It was so boring just basking in the moonlight. I just wanted to chat with Mr. Wang. As a result, no matter how I tried to strike up a conversation, she was like a piece of wood and ignored me.
If she is indifferent by nature, then it doesn't matter to me. Girls like her are not my cup of tea anyway, but the annoying thing is that she is just indifferent to me!
She was so enthusiastic about Thunder Monkey that he was so stupid that he couldn't even speak, but she still talked to Thunder Monkey tirelessly!
Isn’t this simply a disease? Is there something wrong with the eyes?!”
The fire snake complained several times in a row with a very depressed expression.
He is obviously more handsome than Thunder Monkey, more polite than Thunder Monkey, has better humor than Thunder Monkey, has higher EQ and IQ than Thunder Monkey, and most importantly, he can also talk!
But this woman surnamed Wang was so stunned that she would rather talk to the dumb thunder monkey and listen to the latter's strange "woo-woo" sound than talk to him!
How can he accept this reality?!
"Maybe she realized that she is not your type."
Fang Rui, who probably guessed the reason, found an excuse to explain with a hint of guilt.
"But she is not Leihou's cup of tea! Leihou only likes young women! And..."
"Dududu..."
Before Fire Snake could finish his retort, his cell phone rang suddenly. He subconsciously wanted to turn it off in frustration, but after seeing the caller ID clearly, he still answered it obediently.
“Second uncle, what’s the matter?
not yet……
Huh? Is that so?!
ok, I get it!"
About twenty seconds later, Fire Snake hung up the phone, then raised his head and looked at Fang Rui and said:
"Master, your harem seems to be on fire!"
"What do you mean?" Fang Rui was stunned with a confused look on his face.
"Second uncle said that Zhao Yan, the daughter of City Lord Zhao, is chasing us with a new batch of cursed objects to be verified in the 24th District, and they should catch up soon. Let us be careful not to accidentally injure them. By the way,
Take the person and the cursed object back to Hongye Villa."
