Chapter 409 Hail. The Man Behind the Scenes
After the two finished their meal, Chu An went upstairs to find Lao Chu.
Jinli also went to find Li Qing. After thinking about it, he decided to tell Li Qing about the cafeteria. After all, someone died. Unexpectedly, Li Qing said that he knew it a long time ago, but Xiao An sent a message to stop him from going down.
Jinli suddenly realized that it was Sister An who was really good. If Li Qing went down to support his men, it would be a matter between the two gangs, and it must not be handled as it was just now. And no matter what the result was, Shen Changyuan could not live here any longer.
"Where is Xiao An?" Li Qing suddenly asked.
"I went to the top floor to find Uncle Chu."
"What do you think of that guy?"
Jinli knew that he was asking about Feng Zhuoyi. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, "I can't tell, but since Sister An said it's okay, it should be okay."
…
Top floor.
Old Chu and Feng Zhuoyi had already washed up. There were all kinds of facilities here, so Chu An didn't have to worry about anything. When she entered the room, the two of them were sitting at the round table, chatting, and when they saw her, they hurriedly separated.
Being so careful, it's definitely not a good thing.
"Ahem..." Feng Zhuo cleared his throat. He was still a little embarrassed facing Chu An and quickly avoided her sight.
"My daughter." Old Chu stood up and smiled. "Have you eaten yet? Your uncle Zhuo cooked dumplings. Do you want to eat some?"
"You two cook your own food on the rooftop every day?" Chu An walked a few steps inside and indeed smelled the fragrance of dumplings.
"It's because your Uncle Zhuo is in a bad mood that I stayed here to comfort him."
Chu An sat at the round table, face to face with Feng Zhuo. Now that they had eaten and drunk, it was time to talk about business.
Feng Zhuo guessed what she was going to say, straightened his clothes, and looked at her seriously, "I have contacted Sheng Tang this morning, saying that the eldest lady was killed by the Poseidon Gang. I will go back after the New Year. Don't worry, I will help you take care of the forces over there, but don't rush, those mercenary leaders are not easy to deal with."
This person is quite sensible. She doesn't need to say anything. She really likes dealing with smart people.
"I understand, but are you going to go back alone?"
"I want to take Lao Chu with me, but he won't go back with me." Feng Zhuoyi sighed helplessly, "After going to the King of Hell, I understand a lot and I won't do stupid things again.
But if you have nowhere to go, come to Sheng Tang to find me. I will... wait for you at Sheng Tang base."
"I won't enter the base." Chu An said very confidently. Feng Zhuoyi just smiled and his mentality was indeed much calmer.
"But...I might go do something. I'll contact you when I get there."
"Okay." His tone rose noticeably. It would be a relief to even go and see him.
"You don't have to worry about your safety on the road. I will send someone to go back with you."
Feng Zhuo was stunned for a moment. He and Lao Chu had just discussed how to go back. It was too dangerous to go alone.
"Yes...your friend is going to send his men to escort me back?"
"They won't, but I can let Wang Youfa and Wang Heran go back with you, which will be more convincing."
Feng Zhuo raised his eyebrows. The little girl was too scheming. She saved him for the sake of the Situ power in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and saved the father and son of the Wang family in order to escort him back and conceal her tracks at the same time.
That’s fine, as long as she doesn’t have any bad intentions.
"Well, that's settled. But I plan to leave after the New Year."
"No problem." Chu An looked up at Lao Chu, "How is it, are you satisfied with my arrangement?"
Old Chu nodded with a smile and gave her a thumbs up.
Chu An was not in a hurry to leave, as she still had a few questions that needed Feng Zhuoyi to answer.
Who is the power behind Situ Hanxin?
Feng Zhuoyi didn't hide anything and told everything he knew.
He had never seen the mastermind behind the scenes, but he knew that he was not young, had been a policeman before, and now held an important position in the Beijing base. He controlled not only the Situ family, but also the pharmaceutical tycoon Hu family.
"I heard that after the end of the world, the Hu family invented a series of high-tech products such as heat-proof clothing, thirst-quenching water, and constant temperature clothing, which have a very good reputation in Beijing."
"Is he from City C?"
"Yes, I heard from Situ Hanxin that he stayed in City C for ten years."
Chu An felt that this person was most likely the Masked Fox, but Feng Zhuoyi didn't know his name. However, it was good to have the Hu family as a clue, at least he knew where to start the investigation.
Before leaving, she said she wanted to talk to Lao Chu alone for a while and asked Feng Zhuoyi to step aside.
Feng Zhuoyi left tactfully without showing any negative emotions. It seemed that he had really walked out of the shadows.
Chu An sent Feng Zhuoyi away to give Guo Changren and Lao Chu some time alone. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. When Lao Chu learned that Guo Changren was dead, he was shocked.
"All of them...in your space?"
“They are all deceased people.”
Chu An spoke very calmly, and Guo Changren had no resentment about his death. Only Old Chu smoked silently.
"You guys chat, don't bother with me."
The two old brothers walked to the balcony, talking to each other, all about the past. No one mentioned the uncertain future. Perhaps they also knew that when they were with Chu An, they didn't have to think so much.
Before they knew it, they had smoked a pack of cigarettes.
Guo Changren deliberately stayed for two minutes because he had something to ask Xiao An. Before leaving, he specifically told Lao Chu to learn to accept the laws of the end times, not to have any illusions about human nature, and not to question Xiao An's decision.
"She has grown up, has a positive outlook, and can make decisions."
Lao Chu patted his shoulder and said, "That's my daughter, so I have to side with her."
Guo Changren nodded. The only thing he could ask and wanted to ask was whether his lover would never wake up?
Chu An didn't say anything, but it was already his answer.
He was not in the mood, so he smoked another cigarette and returned to the space surrounded by smoke.
What is coming will come, and running away is not the solution to the problem.
"Girl, is your secret space harmful to your body?" Old Chu suddenly asked.
"Probably not. Don't worry, I know what's going on."
The two of them took this opportunity to have a good chat about their experiences over the past year and a half, and before they knew it, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
Feng Zhuo knocked on the door and said, "Someone downstairs is calling you to come down for dinner."
Chu An and Lao Chu stopped talking. In fact, most of the time it was Lao Chu who asked the questions and Chu An answered them, using the most concise and clear answers. Otherwise, the two of them could talk for three days and three nights.
"Let's go." Lao Chu urged, "Don't you have another operation tonight?"
Li Qing had just sent her a message telling her that Bo Zai had helped her contact Manager Wang and arranged to meet at Pier 2 at 6pm.
The news about the shipping tycoon was strictly blocked, and Manager Wang still didn't know that the manager was dead.
When Chu An arrived at the cafeteria, Gu Ye and Li Qing were both there, but no one from the Three Heroes Gang was there. After everyone finished their meal, they all prepared to go.
Chu An went to look for Shen Changyuan. After not seeing him for an afternoon, a white hair appeared on his head. Big Nose and Sprinter were also there, and they were both a little embarrassed to see her.
"I don't care what happens to others, you three should be good to me." Chu An warned: "Be sure to guard the resort, do you hear me?"
"Don't worry, Sister An." Shen Changyuan nodded heavily. He had no objection to not participating in the action. If he were in Xiao An's position, he would have expelled the Sanjie Gang long ago.
Ten minutes later, Jinli led his men to set up an ambush. Chuan and Li Qing set out at 5:30, first to meet up with Bo Zai, and then go into Pier 2.
Manager Wang still looked arrogant and domineering. This time he didn't even let them into the meeting room and directly received them at the entrance of the hall.
"I have given you the boat. What else do you want to see me for?"
