Chapter 652: Fate is favoring us
Li Hanyu still had a warm smile on his face, but his voice gradually grew colder.
"First, send those three beautiful ladies home. Make sure they arrive safely and smoothly at their residences. Keep a close watch on them. If..."
She deliberately emphasized the word "if", and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
"Someone is trying to kidnap or harm them. I don't need you to rescue them. I just need you to take a clear and complete video of the scene. Can you do it?"
Liu Yi and Song Ping'an had already answered in tacit agreement, without any hesitation, they said in unison:
"Don't worry, ma'am."
"good."
Li Hanyu nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction with this straightforward answer.
Then he reached into the inside pocket of his clothes and pulled out a palm-sized notebook.
Obviously, this notebook was prepared long ago and she always carried it with her.
She handed the small notebook towards Liu Yi and instructed:
“Secondly, in this notebook, there is a list of the construction team.
It records the detailed information of each of them - name, address, family situation, daily activities...all the information you need is in it."
Li Hanyu's voice was calm, as if he was discussing what to eat for dinner.
"I need everyone on the list to die unexpectedly within three days. Can you do that?"
Liu Yi took the notebook with both hands, opened it in front of him and flipped through it hastily. There were information and photos of about ten people in the notebook. It looked like an ordinary construction team.
By the way, the words on the notebook are all printed, without a single handwritten stroke.
Liu Yi immediately guessed that this must be some kind of operation to silence people, but he did not ask a single question. He just carefully put the notebook that carried more than a dozen lives into his pocket.
When he looked up again, his voice was a little deeper than before:
"Don't worry, ma'am!"
Song Pingan, who was standing by, didn't even glance at the notebook. Seeing Liu Yi agreed, he followed suit without hesitation:
"Don't worry, ma'am!"
Li Hanyu continued with great satisfaction:
“Then comes the third thing, which is the most important thing.
I need you to go back to Prison No. 2 and spread the news that Warden Qian will be back soon. Let everyone in Prison No. 2 know that Warden Qian will be back soon after he recovers.
In addition, I want you to hurry up and make some necessary renovations to the warden's office to make it safer and more suitable for my son's work needs when he returns."
These three instructions are linked together, forming an invisible web.
In fact, all of this should have been ordered to be done by Feng Mu, but who told Feng Mu to be sent away by Hou Wendong? Fortunately, ordering these two people is equivalent to ordering Feng Mu, which is the same.
After the last thing was said, Liu Yi and Song Ping'an did not respond immediately. They both looked at Warden Qian in the fish tank almost at the same time, and an inexplicable look of joy appeared on their faces.
Li Hanyu took in everything and thought to himself:
"Here we go again, this kind of spontaneous expression of joy. These two are indeed loyal subjects of my son."
In the fish tank, Qian Huan was also shocked by the sudden emotional changes of these two people.
He had not seen the scene in the corridor before, so he was not mentally prepared at all, and was deeply struck by the heartfelt welcome and expectations of these two people.
An indescribable warmth and a huge sense of accomplishment instantly surged into Qian Huan's heart:
"I never thought... that this warden would be so popular in the Second Ward!"
Although Liu Yi and Song Ping'an have not yet fully understood all the details of the minister's huge chess game, the most crucial point has become clear - Warden Qian's "awakening" and "return" are simply a script carefully planned and promoted by the minister.
Accident? Absolutely not!
At this moment, they no longer had any resistance to Qian Huan's return.
Since everything is under the control of the minister, the so-called "power seizure" naturally becomes nonsense.
Warden Qian couldn't take it away, so the only way for Warden Qian to return was...
Liu Yi and Song Pingan were full of thoughts and said excitedly:
"Madam and Warden Qian, please rest assured!!!"
Liu Yi and Song Pingan quickly left the villa, taking three beautiful ladies with them.
After they left, Li Hanyu locked the door again.
Almost at the moment the lock tongue fell, the carefully maintained calmness on her face suddenly shattered, replaced by an extremely gloomy and resentful look.
She suddenly pulled open the shoulder sleeve on one side, and on the originally fair and round skin of her shoulder, there were several extremely clear fingerprints.
The fingerprints were dark purple and black, with swollen edges, as if they had been clamped with a red-hot iron. All the capillaries under the skin were ruptured, and the blood clots spread like a hideous spider web, almost breaking through the thin skin.
Li Hanyu walked silently to the table beside him and opened the white medical box.
She picked up a cotton swab, dipped it in cold disinfectant alcohol, and without any hesitation, pressed it directly to the center of the purple-black fingerprint.
"hiss……"
An extremely suppressed gasp escaped from between her tightly pursed lips. Her body tensed instantly, her knuckles turned white from the force, but she swallowed back the subsequent cry of pain.
She remained silent, wiping the hideous wound over and over again with a cotton swab, and then applying cold ointment.
This silent forbearance was like a hot iron, burning Qian Huan's heart in the fish tank.
He felt his entire face twisted with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"How could Wang Xinfa, this beast, be so cruel? I want to kill him, I want to kill him—"
The angry roar echoed in the closed bedroom for a long time. After a long time, he quieted down hoarsely and said harshly:
"Mom, what should we do next?"
Only after the ointment was applied did Li Hanyu slowly pull up his sleeves to cover the ugly mark again.
She turned around and faced Qian Huan, who was still gasping angrily in the fish tank.
She did not comfort her son, but her voice was as cold as if it came from the depths of an ice cellar:
"Mom misjudged Wang Xinfa. He's even more ruthless and mean than I thought.
I originally thought that since you're awake, even if he's angry, I can still use the net of interests to temporarily bind him and slowly deal with him, but now it seems that I was too simple-minded."
Li Hanyu shook his head and sneered:
"Wang Xinfa also pursues interests, but he is different from Lu Chenjia and Lu Zong. What he pursues is not the maximization of interests, but the absoluteness of interests.
Rather than gaining or losing benefits, he cares more about his power and dignity. He will not tolerate even the slightest violation.
Li Hanyu paused, staring at his son without blinking, and asked in a deep voice:
"So, Huan'er, the situation we're going to face next is probably ten or even a hundred times more dangerous than Mom previously anticipated. Are you afraid?"
Qian Huan's heart suddenly shuddered, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes:
"Mom, if you were a council member, would you kill us directly?"
But then he was consumed by his anger and said harshly:
"Mom, I'm not afraid of that either. Compared to death, I'm more afraid of staying in the fish tank forever, turning into a piece of rotten meat that can't move. That's what life is like! Not! Better! Than! Death!!"
Qian Huan was not lying at all. Ordinary people could not imagine how inhuman torture that long "coma" was.
That is not a peaceful sleep, but an endless, tireless, uncontrollable, and repetitive practice of one thing - practicing!
Day and night.
Every second.
I practiced in front of the mirror 24 hours a day without a break... It was more despairing than being cut into pieces.
Even if you know you are dreaming, it is still... more terrifying, isn't it?
Li Hanyu was very satisfied with her son's answer. She said with relief:
"Yes, Huan'er, remember, you can't be afraid. The closer you are to death, the more you can't be afraid. If you are afraid, you will really die. Only by not being afraid and biting back at others with the thought that you will die, can you have a chance of survival."
Qian Huan understood this very well and replied:
"Mom, I understand. You taught me that if I get mad, I'll flip the table."
Li Hanyu smiled when he heard this, then changed the subject and said:
"However, we are not doomed to die. Even if Wang Xinfa has murderous intentions, he certainly won't dare to touch us mother and son for the time being."
Qian Huan was stunned, his eyes filled with confusion and suspicion: "???"
If Councillor Wang really wanted to kill them, crushing this orphan and widow would be no more difficult than crushing an ant. He didn't know where his mother got the confidence from.
Could it be because he just called Wang Xinfa “Dad”?
For a political creature like Wang Xinfa, he could kill even his own son, let alone a "bastard" like him who appeared out of nowhere.
Li Hanyu knew what his son was wondering about, and a suggestive smile appeared on his face:
"My son, the time you woke up tonight was truly wonderful.
By the way, you may not know this, but the Special Envoy's villa is not far from ours, and it happened to be attacked tonight. His life or death is still unknown."
Qian Huan was stunned for a moment, and after a brief stagnation, his mind was spinning at an unprecedented speed.
Then, as if he had thought of something, the color on his face turned pale.
Li Hanyu looked at his son's pale face and said with a smile:
"It seems you think the same as Mom does. You're afraid that someone will try to link your awakening tonight to the Special Envoy's affairs, right?
If you think this way, and if your mother thinks this way, it means that there must be people out there who think this way too."
Qian Huan wanted to remind her mother that this matter was very serious. Although she believed her mother would definitely not do such a thing, others might not know the truth.
This kind of seemingly unrelated coincidence can often kill people. He has seen this kind of thing many times in the lower city.
After all, who says that things are completely unrelated?
The more Qian Huan thought about it, the more terrified he felt. But he didn't understand why his mother was still smiling? ! !
Li Hanyu didn't keep the secret any longer, but explained through the fish tank:
"Huan'er, what you're worried about is exactly what I was worried about before, but now, I've suddenly figured it out—this fatal coincidence is a huge danger to us, but it can also be a life-saving talisman for us, mother and son."
Qian Huan could understand every word his mother said, but when they were put together, he couldn't understand them.
Danger is danger!
How can danger become a life-saving talisman?
Qian Huan racked his brains, trying to keep up with his mother's thinking, but it was obvious that he was far inferior to his mother in wisdom in this regard.
Li Hanyu is an absolutely competent mother. Even in the most dangerous moments, she never loses patience and never forgets to educate and guide her son:
"Huan'er, don't be anxious. Calm down and think carefully.
You just asked why Wang Xinfa didn't dare to touch us? The answer lies in this 'coincidence'!
She stared at her son with a sharp gaze and said slowly:
"Think about it, if my mother and I... well, just in the last few days, suddenly and inexplicably died, what would those smart people out there think?
One coincidence can be explained as a coincidence, but can two coincidences also be explained as coincidences?"
Qian Huan's pupils suddenly contracted, as if a bolt of lightning had split the chaotic fog in his mind.
Li Hanyu saw his son's eyes suddenly light up, and knew that he had grasped the thread, so he added:
"If your 'miraculous' awakening can be forcibly tied to the assassination of the special envoy by those with ulterior motives, then similarly, if we, mother and son, were to suddenly and 'accidentally' die, this 'accident' would also be firmly tied to the previous 'coincidence' by those with ulterior motives."
Li Hanyu explained and asked:
"Huan'er, do you think what Mom said makes sense? Or, will there be someone with ulterior motives who will make a big deal out of these coincidences?"
Qian Huan really understood everything now. His eyes lit up and he even uttered a name:
"Mom, are you talking about Councillor Zhang Deming?"
Li Hanyu's beautiful eyes turned, and a sinister smile appeared on her face:
"Yes, it is Councillor Zhang Deming.
He and Wang Xinfa are sworn enemies and the biggest rivals for the next chief position.
If the murder of our mother and son happened at the height of your "awakening" and the attack on the special envoy, then Zhang Deming, the bloodthirsty political shark, would definitely not fail to notice these coincidences.
He will try his best to connect all the coincidences and weave them into a web to entangle Wang Xinfa to death.
What's more, you called Councillor Wang "Dad" in public today, so it's even more unlikely that Councillor Zhang Deming will let go of the relationship between us and the councillor."
Qian Huan's mind also completely changed, as if he had been enlightened.
Yes, hadn’t he just experienced the bloodiness and filthiness of political struggle?
He still vividly remembers how much effort and sacrificed his life were required to extricate himself from the dirty water of the Second Prison riot, and feels the pain deeply.
He knows too well the power of this "dirty water"!
You don't need evidence to throw mud at someone, you just need an excuse to find a loophole.
As for whether one will eventually sink or rise, the truth is no longer important, and even the poor quality of the excuse is insignificant. What matters is how powerful the opponent who throws out this excuse is and how much trouble he can stir up.
And how much power does Councillor Zhang Deming have?
Councillor Wang Xinfa must know this better than anyone else in this world - if Councillor Zhang Deming seizes this "coincidence", what terrifying energy will be unleashed.
so……
