Chapter 569
He Yuzhu listened quietly to Huo Yingdong's analysis. Although he felt a little regretful, he also knew that what he said made sense.
He nodded slightly and said no more.
Since even Huo Yingdong had clearly stated that he had no intention of getting involved in the gambling industry, He Yuzhu naturally stopped trying to persuade him.
The two said goodbye to each other and said good night. Huo Yingdong then walked back to his room to rest with steady steps.
When Huo Yingdong disappeared at the end of the corridor, Du Guanghe, who had been standing silently, slowly came forward with a serious look on his face. He said, "Brother Zhuzi, I've been asking around late at night, but it seems like Fu Laorong and Gao Kening have disappeared. We can't find them at all."
Hearing this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but frown and asked, "Missing? How could he disappear suddenly? This is very strange."
Du Guanghe nodded solemnly and said, "That's right, Brother Zhuzi. According to what I have learned so far, these two people seem to have planned this and have been hiding for a long time. I asked many people who have contact with them on weekdays, and they all said that they have not seen them recently and did not give us any chance to contact them. Those who I asked either hesitated and avoided my gaze, obviously knowing something but not daring to say it; or they insisted that they really had no clue and knew nothing about their whereabouts."
In fact, as early as yesterday, He Yuzhu had already guessed in his mind that people like Gao Kening and Fu Laorong, who have been in the underworld for many years, would not let others find their traces so easily?
You know, if anyone were faced with such a difficult task as sending someone to assassinate an opponent, they would probably try to find a safe place to hide temporarily.
Who would be so stupid as to send a killer to assassinate the opponent, and then show up in public in a swaggering manner, giving the opponent a perfect opportunity to strike again?
Therefore, the reason why He Yuzhu ordered Du Guanghe to go and investigate was just to confirm his guess.
Now that he was sure that the other party was indeed difficult to find, He Yuzhu seemed quite calm and composed. He thought for a moment and then said decisively, "If that's the case, then forget it. Anyway, whether they show up or not will not have much substantive impact on the subsequent development of the situation. We have more important things to do, so there's no need to waste too much energy on them."
He Yuzhu's rage towards Gao Ke Nian, the man behind the scenes, was so intense that he could burn the entire forest. If he could catch him, he would want to cut him into pieces immediately to vent his hatred!
However, at this moment, there was no trace of this person to be found, so I had no choice but to put this matter aside for the time being.
Afterwards, He Yuzhu told Du Guanghe to leave first.
After Du Guanghe left, He Yuzhu turned and walked into the bedroom.
As soon as he stepped into the room, the scene before him made him laugh out loud.
The beautiful Lin Wanting was tied tightly to the bed with ropes, and a dirty sock was stuffed in her mouth.
Her hair was a little messy, her face showed a bit of panic and anger, and her body was slightly red from the constant struggle.
When Lin Wanting saw He Yuzhu walking into the room, her eyes, which were already wide open, widened even further. Her eyes were full of anger and unwillingness, and her mouth kept making a whimpering sound. At the same time, her body began to twist and struggle violently, trying to break free from the ropes.
Her hands were tied behind her back and she was pulling the ropes hard, leaving faint red marks on her wrists. Fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to her cheeks, making her look even more disheveled.
Seeing this, He Yuzhu closed the door slowly, then walked forward with a smile and said softly, "Baby, did you miss me?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in the tone, as if everything before his eyes was just an interesting game.
Before he finished speaking, he reached out and gently pulled out the sock from Lin Wanting's mouth.
Lin Wanting, who regained her freedom, immediately yelled in exasperation: "I missed you, you big-headed ghost! Let me go quickly, I want to go to the toilet, I can't hold it any longer!"
The voice was a little sharp due to anger and anxiety.
Hearing this, He Yuzhu not only did not panic at all, but instead teased with a playful smile: "Oh my, yesterday you were still stubborn and refused to admit that you were a little slut, but today I broke your virginity, and only one day later, you can't wait to miss my big-headed ghost?"
That expression and tone made him look like a scoundrel.
Lin Wanting was so angry that her lungs almost exploded when she heard this!
She cursed in her heart how shameless and despicable this guy was. The big-headed ghost she mentioned was not what he understood!
But at this moment her feet were still tied tightly, and the sense of urgency of impending incontinence became stronger and stronger, as if it would burst out at any time. She felt that her bladder was about to explode.
At this moment, there was no time to continue chatting with He Yuzhu. She could only hear her anxiously shouting, "Quickly release my feet. I really can't hold it any longer. I have to go to the toilet!"
There was a hint of pleading in his voice.
When He Yuzhu heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He was really worried that Lin Wanting would not be able to hold it in and urinate incontinently on the bed.
Not only would I have to buy a new set of bedding, but even the servants at home would probably spread some unpleasant gossip.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu did not dare to delay for a moment. He quickly reached out and pulled hard to quickly untie the knot that was tied to Lin Wanting's feet.
Lin Wanting was very nimble and she kicked off the rope around her feet in just a few moves.
Then, she ran into the bathroom like a gust of wind, almost bumping into the door frame in her panic.
Not long after, a series of splashing sounds came from the bathroom. It seemed that Lin Wanting was having a great time.
However, this sound only lasted for a short while, and then the sound of running water was heard again - it turned out that Lin Wanting took advantage of this opportunity to take a bath directly in it.
Seeing this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but frown, wondering why this woman was so casual?
So he stood up and walked towards the bathroom.
When he got closer, he found that the bathroom door had been locked at some point.
Helplessly, He Yuzhu raised his hand and knocked on the door gently, and said, "Hey, Lin Wanting, open the door."
The voice was not loud, but it contained a tone that could not be refused.
Who would have thought that Lin Wanting in the room would not pay any attention to him at all, and even flatly refused: "No, I won't open it! Do you think I'm stupid? If I open the door, I will be bullied to death by you."
His tone was full of caution.
She leaned against the bathroom wall, her eyes fixed on the closed door, her hands subconsciously clutching the thin clothes on her body, as if this could give her a little more sense of security.
Hey, this little thing is not a problem for the smart and clever He Yuzhu.
He just smiled slightly, flipped his right hand suddenly, and a cardboard card appeared in his hand in an instant like a magic trick.
This card is a small tool he uses to open locks on a daily basis, and it always comes in handy at critical moments.
Then, he carefully stuffed the cardboard card into the crack of the door. After fiddling with it for a few times, he heard a slight "click" and the bathroom door lock was easily opened.
The sudden change obviously frightened Lin Wanting. She screamed and subconsciously covered the key parts of her body with her hands.
At the same time, he was yelling, "Oh my god, what on earth do you do? Why do you act like a thief?"
His face was full of horror.
"Hmph, how can being a thief compare to being a killer? Especially a female killer like me who has a clear target!" Lin Wanting shouted indignantly, her eyes slightly red and tears welling up.
She recalled the first time she carried out a killer mission, and her heart was filled with regret and unwillingness.
At that time, in order to ensure that everything went smoothly, she even gave up her dignity and sacrificed her looks to get closer to her target.
Under the dim light, she forced a smile and moved around her target, each move of hers was filled with danger and uncertainty.
She accompanied her target to various occasions, enduring his frivolous words and wanton touching, just to wait for the opportunity to deliver the fatal blow.
But who could have thought that he would be captured in the end.
What made her feel even more desperate was that her innocent body was taken away by the hateful man in front of her without knowing why, instead of being left to the senior brother she had always thought about.
She thought back to every moment she had spent with her brother, and those beautiful memories had now become sharp blades piercing her heart, making her feel even more deeply how miserable her experience was.
At this time, Lin Wanting felt extremely aggrieved. She curled up in the corner, her body trembling slightly, and crystal tears kept sliding down her cheeks.
She felt as if her life had fallen into endless darkness and her future was uncertain.
On the other side, He Yuzhu took off his clothes quickly as if nothing had happened, then picked up the shower head beside him and started washing his body.
While washing, he turned his face towards Lin Wanting.
Seeing Lin Wanting squatting there crying pitifully, He Yuzhu frowned and said, "Don't cry! Isn't it good to follow me? You should feel happy! Don't dawdle, come and help me wash well."
It was as if everything he did was a matter of course.
Hearing this, Lin Wanting raised her head, glared at He Yuzhu fiercely, and cursed with a sob: "You...you are such a shameless person!"
Her voice was trembling slightly due to crying, and was filled with disgust and hatred towards He Yuzhu.
Time passes quietly, and every minute and every second goes by extremely slowly.
For Lin Wanting, this whole hour lasted for more than an hour, and every second was like being in purgatory.
In the bathroom, the shower water was flowing, and He Yuzhu was humming a tuneless little song. The sound echoed in the small space, making Lin Wanting upset.
Finally, they finished washing up.
He Yuzhu stretched out lazily, his joints making crisp crackling sounds, his face full of satisfaction. He hugged Lin Wanting and locked his arms around her tightly like an iron hoop.
Lin Wanting's body stiffened slightly, and she struggled subconsciously, but found that her strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of He Yuzhu. She could only let him hug her, and the two of them walked towards the bed hugging each other.
As soon as He Yuzhu touched the pillow, he soon began to snore evenly. The snoring was sometimes high and sometimes low, like a strange melody played in the silent night.
But Lin Wanting kept her eyes open, staring at the darkness, tears welling up in her eyes and her thoughts in a mess.
She thought of Xu Changfeng, wondering if he was also suffering at this moment. She also remembered that she was now in prison, and was filled with despair.
Inside the villa, as time passed, the lights went out one by one.
First, the dazzling crystal chandelier in the living room gradually dimmed like the afterglow of the setting sun, like a meteor dragging a long tail slowly falling into the sky;
Next came the wall lamps in the corridor. The warm yellow light seemed to be swallowed up by an invisible dark beast, and the halos became smaller and smaller until the entire villa was completely shrouded in thick darkness.
Only a faint light came from the security room at the gate. In this dark night, it was like a lone boat drifting in a storm, stubbornly emitting a little light, appearing so small and helpless in the darkness.
Two hours passed, the night grew darker, and everything was silent.
The wind blew gently, and the leaves made a rustling sound. In this silent environment, the sound was infinitely amplified, and each sound was like a heavy hammer hitting people's hearts.
In this quiet atmosphere, an inconspicuous van was parked quietly on the street not far from the villa.
The car body is covered with dust, and the mottled paint almost blends into the surrounding environment in the night. If you don't look carefully, it is difficult to notice its existence.
In the van, Wei Wuji had been waiting for a long time and was getting restless.
He kept changing his sitting position, and the metal seat creaked slightly with his movements.
Sometimes he crossed his arms, his chest heaving violently, and sometimes he rubbed his hands, his knuckles turning white from being pinched. From time to time, he looked out the window, his eyes full of anxiety, and finally he couldn't help but ask:
"Brother, can we take action now? If we wait any longer it will be dawn!"
His voice was filled with a bit of urgency and impatience, echoing in the small car and making people's eardrums hurt.
Liang Feixing, who was sitting nearby, glanced down at the watch on his wrist in the faint starlight.
The pointer on the dial moved slowly in the dim light, making a slight ticking sound.
He thought for a moment, frowned, and said slowly:
"Well, we can act now, but we must be careful and pay attention to safety. This mission is not easy, and we must not take it lightly. The trap set by the enemy is so deep that if we make a mistake, we may be wiped out."
However, Wei Wuji waved his hand nonchalantly, with a confident smile on his face, and replied in a relaxed tone:
"Oh, Brother, don't worry! We are both real masters of Hua Jin. It's easy to deal with those minions and rescue those two idiots Xu Changfeng and Wanting! In my eyes, they are just a piece of cake. My Kung Fu is not for nothing."
