My heart tightened. I had planned everything carefully, thought about how to take each step, how to hook the torpedo, how to get the fire head into the pit, but I never considered Ergou's feelings. In my eyes, Ergou was just a chess piece. Chess pieces should not have thoughts, but Ergou did. When a chess piece starts to think, the whole plan shows signs of collapse.
As long as Ergou is unwilling, all our efforts for the past month and a half will be wasted.
Er Gou continued, "Of course, since I followed Brother Hao and Brother Ye, I have made more money than I ever made before, and I have gained a position that I never dared to dream of before. If it weren't for you two, I would probably still be a scoundrel selling ecstasy under Wu Shengli, waiting to be beaten to death at any time. Sometimes I think, you two have given me glory, money, and status, so what if you let me die? I've said before, in order to repay your kindness, I would not hesitate to sacrifice my life!"
Ergou's voice suddenly became louder, and he said seriously: "So, don't worry, Brother Hao, I will continue to do this matter, and will move forward step by step according to your plan. I have no other requests, I just hope that after I die, Brother Hao can help me take care of my seriously ill mother at home!" After that, he bowed to me, then turned and left.
In the office, there were only Ye Zhan and I, and some blood on the ground.
"What do you think?" I asked Ye Zhan.
"Well, it's really troublesome that a pawn has his own thoughts. However, since he is so loyal and has done a lot for us, it's okay to keep him alive."
"Okay." Ye Zhan's idea coincided with mine. I immediately called Pang Guohong and proposed to develop Ergou into an informant. "We have to do this." I said, "The truth will come out sooner or later. Ergou vaguely guessed something about the torpedo incident last time. If I don't give him some promises, I'm afraid he won't be willing to move forward."
"Okay." Pang Guohong said, "Then tell him. From now on, he will be considered to have made meritorious contributions while serving his sentence. The greater the merit, the lighter the sentence will be in the future, and he may even be acquitted. If he doesn't want to do it again, I will arrest him now."
After getting Pang Guohong's promise, I met Ergou again the next day. This time, Ye Zhan and I were there and told him our plan in detail.
"The ultimate goal is to kill the dwarf mule." When he said this, Ergou couldn't help shaking again, and he looked completely different from the heroic appearance of yesterday. Ergou wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Brother Hao, Brother Ye, don't worry, I will definitely work hard."
Ergou began to contact Huotou diligently. However, Huotou's other identity is Director Ma, and he has no interest in anything other than transactions. It makes sense. In addition to his job, Director Ma has to spend money like water in the Jinwu. Drug trafficking is just a way for him to make money. How can he have the leisure to communicate with his subordinates? Therefore, Huotou is always cold to Ergou. No matter how outstanding Ergou's performance is, Huotou has no reaction at all. Ergou wants goods, Huotou supplies them, that's all.
This won't work. I was still counting on Ergou to replace Huotou as the second-line player. If Huotou keeps people at a distance, he has almost no chance. It seems that we have to find another way. Huotou's other identity is Director Ma, who often goes to the Golden House to gamble. Maybe we can start from this aspect. The most important thing now is to let Ergou and Huotou get acquainted as soon as possible, so as to find out the information of the Southern God of Wealth from the side. I have made a series of plans to continue to let Ergou integrate.
"Remember, a plan is just a plan. Plans can never keep up with changes. You have to make adjustments at any time based on the other party's reaction!"
While I was busy dealing with the fire, I didn't give up on keeping in touch with the short mule, and I still kept meeting him every two or three days. The short mule trusted me more and more, and would come to the south of the city to play with me when he had nothing to do.
