Lian Jun did not personally send Shi Jin to school. He was too busy. He needed to pay attention to the changes in the situation ahead and deal with the increased work due to the changes in the situation. He simply could not spare the time. Gua Yi and Gua Er were also very busy, so in the end, Gua San and Fei Yujing sent Shi Jin to school together.
The car stopped at the school gate. Shi Jin got out of the car and said to Fei Yujing in the car: "No need to continue to send me, go back."
Fei Yujing insisted on getting out of the car and said: "I haven't been to your school yet, take me in to have a look." Shi Jin
glanced at the time and saw that it was still early, so he nodded, walked around the driver's seat and greeted Gua San who was driving, and then took Fei Yujing to the school.
It was the time for new students to enter the school again. The entrance of the police academy was very busy with people coming and going. Shi Jin saw his classmates in uniform, welcoming the new students as seniors. He suddenly felt a little emotional.
It was incredible that another year had passed.
Fei Yujing followed his gaze and also looked at the students at the school gate. After a few seconds, he suddenly took out his mobile phone and took a few photos of the school gate and the students like a tourist. Shi
Jin came back to his senses and asked in confusion, "What are you doing?"
"I took the photo for Big Brother, who hasn't even visited your school yet." Fei Yujing answered honestly, looking sideways at him and asked, "How long have you not contacted Big Brother? Why not?"
When Shi Jin heard him mention Shi Weichong, he reflexively glanced at his own progress bar in his mind, then lowered his head and said nothing.
"When we were on the island in the first half of the year, you and Big Brother got along very well. We called each other every day, and later we kept in touch. But during the summer vacation, you suddenly stopped contacting Big Brother at all. Big Brother is very worried about you." Fei Yujing pointed his phone at him, took a photo of him, then opened his social software and asked, "You can chat via video here. Do you want to meet Big Brother?"
"Don't!" Shi Jin quickly held his hand, met his eyes, tightened his fingers, and then took his hand back, saying, "I did this for a reason... Don't bother big brother."
Fei Yujing turned off the software and asked, "Why, do you still hate big brother?" Shi Jin
glanced at the progress bar in his mind, nodded, shook his head, and replied, "Not so much... It's just that it's not convenient for me to see big brother recently, nothing else."
Fei Yujing looked at his expression, didn't continue to delve into it, and nodded to show that he understood.
The two brothers walked slowly into the school like taking a walk. When passing the playground, Fei Yujing stopped and asked, "Can I go over and take a look?" Shi
Jin looked at the playground and nodded.
The two stepped onto the track of the playground and walked forward along the new track line that had been repainted not long ago.
"Do you have to do morning training here every day?" Fei Yujing suddenly asked.
Shi Jin nodded: "Yes, it counts for attendance and credits."
"Are you tired?"
Shi Jin shook his head: "You won't feel tired once you get used to it. It's quite a workout."
"What do you want to do after graduation?"
"Be a small policeman."
Fei Yujing suddenly stopped, looked sideways at him, and said, "Xiao Jin, I believe you all understand that if Lian Jun and his close subordinates want to completely get rid of their current lives and live a clean new life, the only way is to fake their death. They can get rid of their current identities, change to a new identity and start over, but you can't. You use your real name when dealing with the authorities, and you show your real background to the authorities. You even entered a school controlled by the authorities... Xiao Jin, everyone is very worried about you."
How could Shi Jin not understand this? Everyone can change their background, but he can't. With his position in Mie and his relationship with Lian Jun, when Lian Jun changes his identity and leaves temporarily, Mie will completely cease to exist, and he will become the only related person that the authorities can lock on. Lian Jun wrote the ending for Mie Shu as Destruction. As Mie Shu's deputy leader, no one could predict what kind of ending he would face on the day when Mie Shu was destroyed and Lian Jun changed his identity.
"I will not let myself become a bargaining chip for the government to threaten Lian Jun." He suddenly raised his head and looked at Fei Yujing seriously, "When that happens, it will be my turn to protect Lian Jun."
Fei Yujing frowned and looked at him, asking, "Who will protect you then?" Shi
Jin paused and replied, "Lian Jun... myself... and you guys."
He believed that Lian Jun had arranged a way out for him, and that with his fourth brother around, he would not really be harmed by the government after everything was settled. Moreover, he was the young master of Ruixing after all, and the economic interests he carried were too great. If the government wanted to touch him, they would have to think twice.
Or rather... he actually secretly hoped that the authorities would always keep a record of him in their little notebook, monitor him and be jealous of him for the rest of his life, so that his progress bar would never be reset to zero.
"I'm sorry, I'm too selfish, always getting you into trouble and using you." He apologized in a low voice, his mood became low, for his own calculations and meanness. He knew that these brothers couldn't let him go, so they dared to be so reckless.
Fei Yujing raised his hand and gently rubbed his head, with a look of compromise in his eyes, and said: "No need to apologize, I said, there is no such thing as getting into trouble between brothers... Everyone will protect you, and Lian Jun."
...
The two brothers walked around the campus, and then Fei Yujing came to Shi Jin's dormitory and patted his living environment.
"These photos must not be seen by Lian Jun!" After taking the photos, Shi Jin grabbed Fei Yujing's hand and sternly instructed him.
Fei Yujing pulled his hand away but didn't pull it out, and asked, "Why?" Shi Jin
pulled him out of the dormitory, pointed to the public bathroom at the end of the corridor, and then pointed to the dormitory without a private bathroom, and gave him a look that said you understand.
Fei Yujing looked back and forth, and instantly understood what he meant, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "He would even be jealous like this?"
"You have never been in love, you don't understand." Shi Jin stabbed him with a deep look.
Fei Yujing looked at him deeply and said, "It's okay if you don't let Lian Jun see it, but you have to agree to one condition."
"What condition?"
Fei Yujing pushed him back to the dormitory and asked him to stand in front of his bed. Then he took two steps back, raised his phone to aim at him, turned on the video function, and said, "If it's not convenient for you to have a video call, then use this as the background to shoot a greeting video for everyone to report on your enrollment and comfort everyone."
Shi Jin: "..." "
Brother, they miss you very much." Fei Yujing tilted his head to look at him from behind the phone, and his finger pressed the video button calmly, "Don't you miss them?" Shi
Jin felt awkward and said, "Don't shoot it, it's embarrassing."
"Why are you embarrassed in front of the brothers, or do you actually dislike everyone?" Fei Yujing deliberately provoked him. Shi
Jin frowned, looked at him, and muttered: "You know it's not... Forget it, let's take the photo, it's just a greeting, right?"
Fei Yujing nodded, and didn't make it difficult for him.
Shi Jin suppressed his awkwardness and embarrassment, looked at the camera of the mobile phone, stood up straight, straightened his clothes, and waited for him to start, then said a few dry words of greeting to the camera of the mobile phone, saying that he was fine and asked everyone not to worry, and then rushed in front of Fei Yujing to block his phone, saying: "Have you finished taking the photo? Turn it off quickly after you finish taking the photo."
"It's turned off." Fei Yujing turned off the video, put the phone back in his pocket, glanced at the empty dormitory, and asked, "Where are your roommates? Do you need me to wait for them to come back and treat them to a meal?" Shi Jin
quickly refused and said, "No, there's no need."
Fei Yujing's eyes moved, and he glanced at the dormitory where there were not many personal traces of Shi Jin. He understood something a little, and did not force it. He left the dormitory as Shi Jin urged.
After visiting the school, Shi Jin sent Fei Yujing out again. Fei Yujing thought it was unnecessary and it would waste too much time for them to send him back and forth. However, Shi Jin insisted and said, "I have to see you get on the car with my own eyes before I can feel at ease. You have been attacked once, so you should be more careful in normal times."
Fei Yujing then agreed to his request.
The two returned to the school gate. Before getting in the car, Fei Yujing looked back at Shi Jin and said, "Xiao Jin, my elder brother has lived in that nursing home for a year." Shi Jin
lowered his head and said, "I know... When we were on the island, I told him that he could move out at any time, but he didn't want to."
"He won't come out until he's sure that you really don't hate him anymore." Fei Yujing raised his hand and touched his head. "That's his punishment for himself, Xiao Jin. I don't know what you're worried about and what's bothering you. I know it's difficult, but go and give it a try. I don't want you and your elder brother to have such a hard time." Shi Jin
didn't say anything.
Fei Yujing gently rubbed his hair again and got in the car.
Shi Jin watched the car leave, glanced at the progress bar in his mind, and thought of Shi Weichong who was left alone in the overseas sanatorium, and rubbed his forehead tiredly.
"Jin Jin." Xiao Si suddenly spoke and called him in a low voice.
"It has nothing to do with you." Shi Jin responded quickly, trying to cheer up, saying something he didn't quite believe, "I'm just not mentally prepared yet. It has nothing to do with you, don't think too much."
...
Since entering college, this is the first time that Shi Jin has appeared in school on time at the beginning of the semester. When Liu Yong and Luo Donghao saw him, they almost thought they were hallucinating. After coming to their senses, they rushed towards him and happily made a mess with him.
Shi Jin would call Lian Jun every day, asking him how his day went and what the situation on the road was like. Lian Jun would answer all his questions one by one and never hide anything from him.
More than half a month later, while having lunch one day, Shi Jin received a call from Lian Jun.
"Gua Jiu is dead."
With a click, the chopsticks in Shi Jin's hand fell into the plate, and then he quickly realized that the "dead" in Lian Jun's mouth was not the kind of death he thought. He quickly picked up the chopsticks, suppressed his momentary out-of-control emotions, and asked: "Then he... is safe?"
"It was done very cleanly, 'died' at the hands of Wolf Spider's people." Lian Jun explained, and then comforted him, "Don't worry, I will pick you up in person this weekend."
"No! Don't come. Your health is important." Shi Jin noticed the worried looks from Liu Yong and Luo Donghao on the opposite side. He changed his words immediately after starting to say "Safety is important". Fearing that Lian Jun might worry, he added, "I want to eat crabs on the weekend. It's autumn now, and the crabs should be fat."
Lian Jun's voice softened and he said, "Okay, I'll ask someone to buy some."
Shi Jin hung up the phone, and Liu Yong Liu Yong and Luo Donghao came over immediately. Liu Yong asked worriedly, "What's wrong? You look so bad, and you're still talking about safety and health. Did something happen to Mr. Lian?" Shi Jin
smiled at them soothingly and said, "It's nothing. It rained a few days ago, and he got caught in the rain when he went out. He caught a cold, and the driver scratched his car. He wanted to pick me up on the weekend, but I refused."
"Is that so? The temperature has dropped recently, and it's really not suitable to run outside if you have a cold." Liu Yong and Luo Donghao were relieved and comforted him.
Shi Jin thanked them for their concern, lowered his head and continued to eat, but his tongue could not taste the food.
Although Lian Jun specifically told him that Gua Jiu's "death" was handled by Wolf Spider and there was no problem, he still felt a little uneasy without seeing Gua Jiu's safety with his own eyes.
...
After finishing the day's classes in a daze, Shi Jin lay paralyzed in bed at night, unable to fall asleep. Finally, he simply took out his mobile phone and prepared to play a game of mahjong before turning off the lights to calm his nerves.
As a result, after he turned on the phone, his fingers opened the browser for some reason, found the fishing exchange forum that Gua Jiu had searched for him before, and logged in.
The screen jumped, and then unexpectedly, what appeared in front of him was not the plain fishing forum, but a blank page with a line of large black characters.
Jiu: I am safe.
Shi Jin was stunned, then sat up abruptly. After repeatedly confirming these words, he excitedly swiped around on the page, trying to find a place to reply.
As he swiped, the black font suddenly disappeared. He was startled and stopped his fingers.
Another line of black handwriting appeared: I hope you are all safe.
The handwriting disappeared, and then the page disappeared. Shi Jin tried to log into the fishing forum again, but he could only get one "page does not exist" prompt after another. He slowly put down his phone and finally realized that what Gua Jiu told him was not a fishing forum at all, but a farewell letter prepared in advance.
The lights-out bell rang on time, and not long after, the lights in the dormitory dimmed.
Shi Jin lay back on the bed, holding his phone tightly under the quilt. After hesitating for a while, he found Shi Weichong's number and sent him a good night text message - the time he can spend with everyone is limited and precious, and it can't be wasted anymore.
...
Facing Lian Jun's strong counterattack, Meng Qing took the initiative to contact Qi Yun after realizing that he couldn't deal with it alone. Then, under Qi Yun's persuasion, he found Yuan Peng and said some good things to help him stabilize the foundation of the organization and bring him back to the alliance.
In the end, only Lu Shan was left without news.
"I'll go talk to her." Qi Yun took the initiative to speak and comfort Meng Qing, "I'll help you. You'd better focus on dealing with Lian Jun's counterattack. Lian Jun is a cunning opponent and must be dealt with with caution."
Meng Qing rarely softened his attitude and said, "Thank you very much."
After a few days of stalemate, Lu Shan softened her attitude according to Lian Jun's instructions. Qi Yun took the lead and asked Meng Qing and Lu Shan to have a good talk. Meng Qing suppressed his temper and apologized. Lu Shan accepted it and apologized for her previous impulse. The first
split of the alliance was over. After that, Qi Yun took the lead again and everyone held a meeting again.
"I was always thinking about saving my own energy before, and I watched you guys rushing forward. Afterwards, I acted as if it had nothing to do with me. It was really too much." Lu Shan was the first to express her opinion, and her attitude was very sincere. "In the current situation, no one can stay out of it. I believe everyone can see that Lian Jun is trying to catch everyone in one fell swoop. The official now seems to be jealous of the last incident at the arsenal, but privately Or is it helping it? Lian Jun dared to make such a big fuss this time, there must be official instructions behind it. We have to work together to tear Mie down severely, and we can't let it do whatever it wants and act recklessly. "
Meng Qing gave her face and followed her words and asked, "What do you think? Wolf Spider has been dealing with Mie for many years. You have more experience than anyone else in dealing with Mie."
Does this mean that the decision-making power is given to her?
Lu Shan raised her eyebrows, glanced at Qi Yun, who had no reaction after hearing this, and Yuan Peng, whose expression obviously changed. She changed her mind, smiled at Meng Qing, and continued his words, saying: "It's not much experience. Compared with you, I just know how to avoid the sharp edge of Mie better. Lian Jun is too capable. No matter how much business we knock out of him now, as long as he is still here and the people he has are still here, he has the ability to make those things back in the future and take revenge on us severely." Qi Yun's
heart moved when he heard this, and said: "You mean..."
"What I mean is that Lian Jun is just a lame man with a bad health. The reason why he can ride on our heads and act arrogantly like this is because of his capable subordinates. To put it bluntly, whether it is Gua Yi or Gua Er, such talents are more than enough to be leaders among us, but they are willing to work hard for Lian Jun. Lian Jun is indeed smart, but without those subordinates who can do whatever he tells them to do and complete any orders well, he is actually nothing." Lu
Shan glanced at everyone and said, "Do you understand why Wolf Spider can always escape from Mie's hands and sometimes even bite Mie? Because I never keep a close eye on Lian Jun. I am on guard against his subordinates."
Yuan Peng also understood what she meant and asked, "Do you want to touch those Gua?"
"We have to move those Guas. Lian Jun is too smart. We can't play conspiracy and psychological warfare with him. But if we just want to kill people, even if we just use human wave tactics, there will always be a day when we can kill them. Those Guas are not Lian Jun, who can hide behind the scenes all day long and not even find any traces." Lu Shan smiled confidently, looked at Yuan Peng, and asked, "Lian Jun has been moving your business with Wumen recently, right? Then do you know which subordinates Lian Jun sent to handle the business?"
Qi Yun took the lead before Yuan Peng and replied, "Gua Ba and Gua Shi, these two people are relatively low-key in Mie, and they don't usually come out for activities, but most of Mie's foreign economic affairs are handled by them."
"That's them." Lu Shan snapped her fingers, then looked at Meng Qing and said, "Didn't you say I wouldn't help? Then I will lead this assassination. I can guess a little bit about Lian Jun's style of doing things. Pay more attention to the important areas of your respective business chains. Lian Jun will definitely send people there."
...
A week later, according to Lu Shan's guess, Yuan Peng indeed found traces of Lian Jun's subordinates in Area X, a relatively important business chain area of Sheya. Lu Shan immediately cooperated with Yuan Peng to dig a trap for Lian Jun's subordinates there, and then shot and killed one person on the spot.
"They ran too fast. It seems that the one left behind is just a technician." Yuan Peng kicked the corpse at his feet, glanced at the bulky and ugly computer on the table, and frowned, "Are we fooled? There doesn't seem to be anything important here."
Lu Shan ignored him, walked to the table and stretched out her hand to press on the computer, then picked up the mobile phone on the side and looked at it, and suddenly raised the corner of her mouth: "Nothing important? No, we got the best spoils. Send a few people who know computers over. The one we killed must have a high status in the Extinction."
...
In the holiday villa, Shi Jin set up two grills in the open space outside the small building to grill crabs.
"Can this thing be grilled?" Gua Er was full of distrust.
Shi Jin rolled his eyes at him and waved his hand to chase him away: "Go away, I'll grill them later and you can't eat them."
"No, no, no, there's a big basket of crabs, can you finish them all by yourself? Don't be so stingy." Gua Er surrendered quickly and went over to help him.
In the study upstairs, Lian Jun stood by the window, looking at Shi Jin and Gua Er in the yard, and asked: "Has the wolf spider's list been delivered?"
Gua Yi stood behind him and replied: "Yes, there are a total of six people on the list."
There were actually six.
Lian Jun looked far away, at Gua Wu, who was riding the villa's sightseeing bus in the distance, transporting vegetables and barbecue seasonings to the small building, and said, "There are a few more... Let Gua Wu go and tell him to prepare."
Gua Yi was stunned. It was rare that he did not obey his order immediately. He was silent for a while and asked, "Master Jun, must you be so anxious?"
"How can I not be anxious?" Lian Jun returned his gaze to Shi Jin again, raised his hand and touched his face through the glass, "It's already October, and this year will soon be over."
There is not much time left for everyone.
...
When the aroma of crabs wafted up, Lian Jun was the only one left in the study. He walked back to the desk, took out a stack of information from the small safe in the bottom drawer, and then took out the one belonging to Gua Jiu.
The information was very simple, with only some basic information about the residents and a recent photo attached. He read it carefully, then took out a lighter and lit it.
The flame rose little by little, burning the text on it and blurring the face of the person in the photo. Finally, the paper turned into a pile of ash. He put down the lighter and put the remaining information back into the safe. Halfway through the action, he paused and took out the information of Gua Wu again.
One by one.
He held the information tightly, as if he was holding someone's life.
Not a single one could be missing.
