Chapter 61 Fighting Poison with Poison



"Alas." Shi Jin

sighed for the umpteenth time, leaning on the sofa in the living room, feeling very worried.

Xiao Si was a little worried and asked, "Jin Jin, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm analyzing the pros and cons of office romance." Shi Jin replied, and couldn't help sighing again.

Xiao Si was very confused: "Office? Jin Jin, do you want your own office?"

"What office do I need as an unemployed vagrant?" Shi Jin turned over and lay on the sofa backrest, looking at the rain that began to fall outside the window, and said distressedly, "Lian Jun used to be my boss. I worked for him and he paid me. We each got what we needed and it was very comfortable. Now my relationship with him has changed. He still pays me, but he subconsciously no longer gives me work. Isn't it equivalent to being supported by him for nothing?"

Xiao Si felt that he was wrong and retorted: "You have a job, didn't baby say before that your job is to follow him closely and protect him? Now you eat with him every day, give him massages, take care of him and care about him. Obviously, you have done your job very well, The baby has gained a little weight."

Shi Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Following this line of thought, he felt that what Xiao Si said seemed to make some sense. Isn't his job to follow Lian Jun closely? From this point of view, he has actually been working hard.

But he still felt that something was wrong.

He frowned, turned back and leaned back on the sofa, thinking seriously for a few seconds, and suddenly sat up straight with a look of realization, and said, "No, that's not right. I take care of him and care about him because I like him and it's just a matter of convenience, not because I have to complete some work that must be done. How can taking care of him become a job

?" Xiao Si weakly retorted, "But when you and Baobei were not together, you were also taking care of him. That was your job at that time. Jin Jin, what are you struggling with?"

Shi Jin choked and found that he couldn't even refute Xiao Si's words. He held it in for a long time, then relaxed and leaned back on the sofa, he said with a long sigh: "I just think that before the relationship was confirmed, there was nothing wrong with me taking money to take care of him, but now that he and I have this kind of relationship, if I continue to take money to take care of him, then what would I do... I want to do more to help him, he is too tired, he has to worry about everything..."

For example, now, Lian Jun is worried about Gua Yi and others destroying the four small organizations. After the meeting, he immediately called Gua Jiu to integrate the information and help Gua Yi and others transfer manpower. He was so busy that he had to eat lunch casually.

Gua Yi and his companions were also busy preparing. The four organizations to be destroyed were located in four completely different locations, and one of them even crossed the border. They had to prepare the necessary items as soon as possible, rush to the location of the small organization, familiarize themselves with the enemy's information, mobilize personnel, and formulate combat plans... While everyone was so busy, he couldn't help at all, and was idle here thinking about the annoying problem of "office romance"...

"I'm such a waste." Shi Jin sighed, not realizing that he really said this.

"It turns out that you still have some self-knowledge." Fei Yujing, who appeared in the living room at some point, took over the conversation, and his tone was still very annoying.

Shi Jin looked up at him and saw that his suit was still wet with rain and his hair was half wet. He guessed that he must have just come back from outside. He saw the dark circles under his eyes and said without thinking: "Didn't you sleep well last night? Did you have a nightmare?"

Any ordinary person, after seeing the terrible scene in the villa, would probably have a different degree of decline in sleep quality in the short term. Fei Yujing had such deep dark circles under his eyes, he must have not slept well all night.

Fei Yujing was frozen by his question, sneered, and said: "You think I am you." After that, he turned around and walked away without looking back, which was a bit fast.

Shi Jin watched him walk away silently, somewhat speechless about his stubbornness, and turned his head to look out the window, and saw that Gua San's people were sorting out the fleet in the rain downstairs. Thinking of the tragic scene he saw in the villa yesterday, he really couldn't relax.

Although the counterattack is very exciting, casualties are still inevitable in the process of counterattack...

After the initial preparations, Gua Yi and others took their people away one after another, heading towards their respective mission destinations.

Lian Jun and Shi Jin saw them out together, watching the vehicles they were riding in disappear one by one at the end of the road, and only retracted their sight when they could no longer see their shadows.

"Shi Jin, I haven't forgotten that you are not only my lover, but also my subordinate. You are excellent. I have never thought of wasting your talent, keeping you by my side all the time, and preventing you from growing." Lian Jun suddenly spoke, raised his hand on the armrest of the wheelchair, and held Shi Jin's hand hanging by his side. He looked at the end of the road and whispered, "I'm just not ready to watch you leave me like this and send you to the dangerous front line with my own hands. You don't have enough experience to deal with larger conflicts and battles. I am not mentally prepared enough, and I can't let you go into danger for the time being. We are not ready yet... Shi Jin, give me some time, okay?" Shi

Jin was stunned, looked down at Lian Jun, and instinctively held his hand back and called him: "Lian Jun..."

"I like you calling me that." Lian Jun looked up at him, kissed the back of his hand, and said, "If you want a relationship to last, it is necessary to get used to each other. I am too busy and sometimes I will overlook some things. Remember to remind me. I don't want you to be unhappy."

When Shi Jin heard him say that, his heart softened immediately.

How could this person be so gentle and considerate? He just asked that question. Although he felt a little depressed, he also avoided it on purpose so that he would not find out. In the end, he still found out and explained it seriously as soon as he was done.

He couldn't help but bend down and hug Lian Jun, saying, "I am indeed a little unhappy, but not because of you, but because of myself. I feel that I have not helped you in any way... I'm sorry that I made you worry about me when you are so busy."

"It is my right to worry about you." Lian Jun touched his hair and soothed him, "You accompany me like this, which is the greatest help to me." He

really knows how to talk.

The depressed mood between Shi Jin's eyebrows also dissipated a little. He wanted to laugh a little, but also felt a little helpless - although he knew in his heart that Lian Jun was saying some nice words to coax him, he was still very useless to be coaxed by these nice words.

It is said that people in love will become stupid, and he is no exception.

Sometimes it is not that people really become stupid, but because too many people do not want to add burden to the people they like, so they are willing to be a fool who is easy to coax.

...

After dinner, Gua Er was the first of the four people to send back a message - he had already arrived near the headquarters of the gunfire offline organization and was organizing personnel and arranging firepower.

Two hours later, Gua San and Gua Wu also sent messages one after another. Lian Jun asked about their personnel arrangements one by one. After confirming that everything was fine, he stopped asking and asked them to concentrate on making combat plans.

Around midnight, Gua Yi, who had the farthest mission, finally sent back a message, saying that he had arrived at the destination and was working with the local branch personnel to adjust personnel and prepare action plans.

At this point, the four of them were all on track. After exchanging information, they tacitly chose the same method of operation - attack directly after the personnel arrived, catching the enemy off guard.

Lian Jun did not interfere with their tactical arrangements, saying that he was waiting for their good results.

This was destined to be a sleepless night.

After the time passed 1 a.m., Gua Er was the first to sound the battle horn. Mie's strength is beyond doubt. Gua Er kept in touch with Lian Jun the whole time. Judging from his regular reports, Mie almost crushed the small offline organization of Gun Huo. Not only did he capture the leader alive, but he also found a safe that the leader had secretly hidden. It seemed to contain some account books and other things, which was a major harvest.

Not long after this was over, Gua San and Gua Wu also took action synchronously. They crushed and swept the organization in the same way, but Gua San did not capture the leader. Seeing that the situation was not right, the other party actually committed suicide.

Guayi was the last to act. The small organization he was in charge of was the most vulnerable to gunfire. Whether it was armed defense or the base camp layout, it was the kind that was more difficult to capture. Guayi was a cautious person and chose to find a more reliable breakthrough point first, and then attack directly on a large scale after taking the breakthrough point.

But Guayi was delayed for a while, and by dawn, this last small organization was also successfully captured by Guayi. Guayi also successfully prevented the leader of the organization from committing suicide and captured the other party alive.

So far, all the tasks issued by Lianjun were declared completed in less than a day, with amazing efficiency.

Shi Jin watched the whole process, and besides being amazed, he also deeply understood the reason why Lian Jun did not assign him a mission this time. With his current strength and experience, he really could not do the work that Gua Er and his gangsters were doing now.

The gap between the strength and experience of the young policemen in peacetime and the gangsters who grew up in the war was like heaven and earth, and it was not something that could be caught up by a few small missions.

"Retreat immediately, don't let the gunfire cut off your retreat, I will send people to cover you, be careful." Lian Jun gave the last order, then leaned back in his chair and rubbed his eyebrows. Shi

Jin came back to his senses, hurried over and asked with concern: "Do you want to take a break? You've been busy all night."

Lian Jun put down his hand and looked at him. The fatigue between his brows dissipated a little. He touched his face and said: "I'm sorry to have you accompany me all night. I have to keep an eye on their retreat. You go and rest. I'll let Gua Jiu take your place."

"What do you mean by involving me? My job is to accompany you. I'm obviously just doing my own job." Shi Jin corrected seriously, then grabbed his hand and kissed it, then said with a smile, "It seems we have to endure for a while longer. Wait, I'll get you something to drink

to refresh you." Lian Jun couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth because of his smile. He shook his hand, nodded in response, and didn't ask him to rest first.

At this time, it was just dawn, and everyone else in the room was still asleep. Shi Jin ran to the kitchen quietly, grabbed a pot of hot milk, got some food, and then walked out with a tray.

When he walked to the living room, Shi Jin found a figure leaning on the single sofa by the window in the living room. He was a little confused, and took two steps closer to take a closer look. He saw that the person sitting on the sofa was Fei Yujing, who was still wearing pajamas, and Fei Yujing's face was very bad. He closed his eyes and frowned, and the dark circles under his eyes became darker. He looked like he was having a hard time digesting something. He immediately understood and asked, "Are you having a nightmare again?"

Fei Yujing was startled by his sudden voice, and immediately looked over, still stubbornly: "No, I just got up early and came out to get some fresh air."

The windows were closed, so why would he get some fresh air?

Shi Jin did not expose him. He put down the tray, took out a disposable cup from the coffee table cabinet, poured him a glass of milk, gave him a stack of snacks, and then said, "It's useless for you to endure it like this. Milk helps you sleep. If you can't sleep at night, you can try drinking a glass of milk before going to bed. Exercise and appropriate leisure and entertainment can also help relax your mind. Don't do high-intensity work before going to bed. If you really have nothing to do, you can talk to your friends. Anyway, it's better than enduring it alone. If you keep holding it in like this, be careful of psychological problems."

"Are you cursing me?" Fei Yujing asked back with a frown. Shi

Jin felt that his train of thought was really strange. He looked at him like a fool, picked up the tray and replied, "Yes, I am cursing you." After that, he turned around and left. He was not going to waste too much time on him.

Fei Yujing was holding his breath at his last look. He stared at his back, glanced at the steaming milk and sweet snacks on the tea table, frowned irritably, closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa.

...

At ten o'clock in the morning, Gua Yi and others were finally sure that they had all retreated to a safe place. Lian Jun was relieved, called Gua Jiu to let him continue to watch the subsequent retreat, and took Shi Jin back to the room. Shi

Jin watched Lian Jun finish washing, settled him on the bed, and prepared to leave.

Lian Jun grabbed his hand and asked, "Aren't you going to rest?"

"Rest, I have to take a shower." Shi Jin replied.

Lian Jun moved aside and said, "I don't mind, come up."

Shi Jin was silent, thinking that he wanted to go back to the room to take a shower and rest, but when he met Lian Jun's concerned gaze, he swallowed his words and followed Lian Jun's movements to lie on the bed, helped him pull the quilt, and said, "Go to sleep."

Lian Jun leaned directly on him and kissed his lips. Shi

Jin was stunned, and when he saw him kissing seriously with his eyes closed, he also closed his eyes, raised his arms and hugged him.

...

The two of them slept until before dinner, and when they woke up, Gua Er and others had all returned and were catching up. Lian Jun called Gua Jiu and asked about the injuries of Gua Er and others. After getting the answer that no one was injured, he felt relieved and continued to work.

Around 10 o'clock in the evening, Gua Er and others woke up one after another and found Lian Jun to report the situation.

The three leaders and their important subordinates who were captured alive have all been dispersed and imprisoned in various branches of Mie. The more important information has been brought back, and Gua Jiu is summarizing and organizing it.

Lian Jun confirmed some details, and then named a few organizations, asking Gua Yi and others to take their respective tasks. Shi Jin

was surprised to see this, and did not expect that there would be a second wave of cleaning up the offline organizations of the gunfire. Gua Yi and others seemed to have been mentally prepared. They each took their tasks and ran away tacitly.

This time, Shi Jin would not foolishly ask for a mission. After watching them leave, he asked, "Do you want to continue fighting?"

"Fight, and we will stop when the gunfire comes to negotiate with us." Lian Jun replied.

Hearing this, Shi Jin remembered the time when Zuo Yang wanted to use Long Shi to lure Lian Jun into a trap, but was forced by Lian Jun to jump first. Suddenly, he felt that the current situation was a little similar to the situation at that time.

He felt that he understood a little bit of Lian Jun's principle of doing things - it didn't matter if the enemy had bargaining chips, as long as he could find a way to turn the initiative back to his side, the battle would be half won.

In the following week, Gua Er and his team repeated the cycle of going out - cleaning up small organizations - retreating back - taking tasks - going out. With L country as the center of the circle, they swept outward at a uniform speed to sweep out the more important downline organizations in the gunfire business network.

In the next few days, when the gunfire gradually responded and began to resist the counterattack, Gua Er and his team simply skipped the procedures of retreating back. After sweeping out a small organization, they immediately took on new tasks remotely and headed straight for the next mission target.

Because of the faster pace of the attack, Lian Jun's staying up late became more and more serious. The little bit of weight he had gained before was gone, and his complexion was much worse. Shi Jin felt distressed and stayed up with him. From time to time, he watched Lian Jun eat something and take a nap, trying to make him less tired.

During this period, because of staying up late, Shi Jin began to see Fei Yujing, who was troubled by nightmares, in the living room at various magical times. Seeing that his complexion was getting worse day by day, he was afraid that he would collapse and delay everyone's business. So he mercifully gave him a glass of milk and some "how to quickly adjust the state" chicken soup every time he met him.

Fei Yujing was annoyed by him. His attitude changed from being sarcastic and tough at first to being irritated and indifferent later. Once, he was really annoyed by Shi Jin's nagging and went back to his room. Shi Jin watched

him go back to his room, smacked his lips, and asked Xiao Si with satisfaction: "Did I just piss him off?"

Xiao Si felt a little sympathetic towards Fei Yujing and replied: "He is almost pissed off to death by you, Jin Jin, why do you keep bullying him?"

Yes, it was bullying. Although others could not see it, Xiao Si knew that Shi Jin's deliberate nagging was really bullying.

Anyway, when facing others, Shi Jin had never been so tactless and annoying.

"What bullying or not? I just care about him. You see, he always gives me the cold shoulder, but I repay him with kindness. I care about him so carefully. Am I not a good person?" Shi Jin asked back with a righteous face.

Xiao Si was speechless and kept his conscience with silence.

Time passed quickly in sleepless nights. All official resources and extermination resources were mobilized. The economic suppression of Jiuying by Lao Gui became more and more severe. The situation in the southeast region gradually became turbulent. Countless local organizations found something wrong and turned their attention to the gunfire that had been targeted, ready to make a move.

After another round of sweeping, on a rare sunny day in L country, Gua Er and his team all returned and stopped the sweeping against the Gunfire group. Shi

Jin was puzzled and asked, "Did Gunfire come to us for negotiation?"

"No, it was Zuo Yang who came to Lao Gui." Gua Er answered, scratching his mustache, yawning and saying, "No, it's been too exciting recently, I need to slow down. I'm going to sleep, Xiao Jinjin, do you want to accompany me?" Shi Jin took

a step back to show his innocence and silently pointed behind him.

Gua Er froze, realized something, turned his head and looked behind him, and saw that Lian Jun had come behind him without knowing when, and was looking at him deeply at this moment. He felt a chill on his back, and hurriedly laughed and said, "Just kidding, I'm just kidding." Then he slipped away.

Gua Jiu was typing away on his computer, complaining without even raising his head: "You don't learn your lesson. Every time you go out on a long mission, you get punished several times for not keeping your mouth shut. You deserve it." Shi Jin

wanted to laugh, and he did.

Lian Jun had a blank expression on his face. He stepped forward and pulled him off, pinching his mouth to stop him from laughing.

...

Of course, at night, Lian Jun once again unnoticedly left Shi Jin in his room to rest. Shi Jin remembered the room he had never slept in, pretending not to notice Lian Jun's little thoughts, and got on the bed at his invitation.

In fact, Shi Jin has now realized that it is very difficult to get off some beds once you climb up.

The days of day and night reversal have been going on for too long. Shi Jin woke up by himself in the early morning. He couldn't fall asleep, and was afraid of waking up Lian Jun, so he simply got up and walked towards the living room as usual.

As expected, Fei Yujing leaned on the sofa by the window in the living room again, his face hidden in the shadows, his expression unclear.

"You stay up like this every day, you won't die suddenly, will you?" Shi Jin stopped in front of him and said with a frown.

It has been more than a week, if Fei Yujing continues like this, he really won't be able to bear it.

Fei Yujing didn't move, as if he really had died suddenly. Shi Jin

stared at him for a few seconds, turned around and left.

Fei Yujing moved his fingers after hearing the footsteps, but still didn't close his eyes.

Ten minutes later, Shi Jin came back with hot milk and snacks. He turned to turn on the lights in the living room, put the tray on the coffee table, dragged a table in front of Fei Yujing, dragged a chair over, and finally turned back to bring the tray over and put it on the small table, then sat down opposite Fei Yujing.

Fei Yujing opened his eyes and looked at him, and asked, "Shi Jin, what do you want to do?" His tone was surprisingly peaceful since this period of time. Shi Jin

glanced at him, took out the tablet and said, "Nothing, I've been living a rough life recently, and I can't sleep at night, so I came out to sit."

"You can sit somewhere else." Fei Yujing drove him away. Shi Jin

poked at the tablet and said without giving in, "The view here is the best, I want to sit here, you can change it yourself." After that, he clicked on a video.

“Ah——!!!”

A shrill scream came from the tablet’s speaker, amplified infinitely by the darkness. Fei Yujing was so frightened that his body trembled, his face turned black, and he gritted his teeth and said, “Shi Jin, what are you doing!”

"Watching a movie." Shi Jin answered with a mysterious look on his face. "You don't know, when I first came to the organization, I was afraid of everything. The sound of gunfire would scare me so much that I couldn't sleep for a week. Later, the old doctor in the organization told me a method, and I was able to sleep again and was no longer afraid of gunfire."

Fei Yujing wanted to ignore him, or scold him and drive him away, but nearly ten days of insomnia and nightmares had almost driven him crazy. Thinking that there was still work to do later, he struggled for a while in his heart, and finally put down his face and asked stiffly: "What method?"

"Fight poison with poison." Shi Jin dragged the chair towards him, enlarged the horror and bloody movie screen on the tablet, and said, "Everything becomes numb after watching too much. Today is a rare dark and windy night. Don't you think it's a good time to watch a more exciting movie?"

Fei Yujing looked at the bloody ghost face enlarged on the tablet, closed his eyes hard, and for the first time moved the milk that Shi Jin brought to him, picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.
