"The chief's wife said that after killing Zhao Guohui, cut off his middle finger on his left hand and return to report. I don't believe that a poor boy from the countryside can survive for more than three days under the pursuit of our Sanhe Gang!"
Yaoshou~! He must have offended the wives of the leaders along the way! Even after his death, they didn't let go of his fingers?
Zhao Guohui racked his brains but couldn't figure out who he had offended.
"Bang, bang, bang!" Zhao Guohui could hear a series of knocks on the doors. Several wooden doors in the alley were knocked, including the door of the room where Zhao Guohui was currently standing.
What should I do? There are six or seven people outside. If I rush out, I'll definitely be seeking death. But if I don't open the door, this door looks so old, will it be kicked down by those big men outside?
At this moment, a soft hand reached out and took Zhao Guohui's hand and pulled it. A girl's voice whispered in Zhao Guohui's ear: "Come with me."
Zhao Guohui hesitated for half a second, and then his feet involuntarily followed the girl into the house.
In the darkness, Zhao Guohui could only see the girl's vague figure and could not see her face clearly.
The girl led Zhao Guohui to a bookshelf and reached out a hand to grope around a few times. Zhao Guohui heard a subtle "tapping" sound. After the sound, before Zhao Guohui could react, the girl pushed him into a small space.
Then, the "za za za" sound was heard a few more times, and then everything returned to silence.
Zhao Guohui pricked up his ears and heard the girl's light footsteps gradually fading away.
"Little girl, have you seen a young man?" a rough voice asked after the door opened.
"No." The girl's voice was still soft and gentle, and it sounded very comfortable to Zhao Guohui's ears.
Obviously, the people outside also thought the girl's voice was pleasant, and perhaps her appearance also amazed them. A malicious voice sounded: "Brother Bao, this little beauty is good-looking, otherwise we brothers will have fun tonight..."
"When did your Sanhe Gang start raping women and children? Does your Gang Leader Ma know about this?" The girl's sarcastic voice interrupted the man's malicious proposal.
"Do you know our gang leader Ma?" Black Panther was surprised and asked. The Sanhe Gang is a large underground gang in N City, with thousands of people in the gang. The gang leader Ma mentioned by the girl is the biggest boss of the Sanhe Gang. As far as Black Panther knows, three years ago, Ma Youcai was just a street thug, and relied on the support of people in Hong Kong to climb to the position of gang leader. Black Panther is just a small leader in the Sanhe Gang, with only five or six brothers under him. In the hearts of Black Panther and his gang, Ma Youcai is no less than the sun in the sky, out of reach.
"The breeze blows on the bright moon." The girl suddenly made a strange gesture and said something strange.
"The bright moon shines on the river." Black Panther's expression was stern. He quickly replied, bowed to the girl and said, "I'm sorry, the Black Panther team bumped into you today. I hope you will forgive me."
"Okay, let's go!" The girl was silent for a few seconds before speaking.
"Thank you, miss. Thank you, miss!" After thanking her, Black Panther quickly called several of his men to leave the alley.
"Brother Leopard, is that little girl very powerful?" After walking out of the alley, a younger brother asked in confusion.
"Slant Eyes, you must remember, if you meet that little girl again, stay away from her. She... is not someone we can afford to offend." Black Panther touched his wet back, his hand full of sweat.
That was a close call! Dasha just talked nonsense, but luckily no one took it to heart. Otherwise, there would be no place for them and their brothers to stand in N City. If they offended that leader's wife, they would just hide from her. If they offended Ma Ge's guests, even if they hid to the ends of the earth, Ma Ge would find them and tear them to pieces. The gang rules are not for show, and Black Panther, who has embarked on this path, knows this very well. You know, the secret code that the girl just used means that she is the highest-level guest of their Sanhe Gang. As far as Black Panther knows, there are only three such guests in their Sanhe Gang.
Only after Black Panther and the others left did the girl release Zhao Guohui from the dark room.
Yes, it was a dark room. Even though it was less than two square meters, it could at least hold a few people.
With a click, the girl turned on the light.
Under the light, a beautiful girl stood there. On her palm-sized face were a pair of eyes that seemed to speak, which made Zhao Guohui stunned.
"Have you offended any powerful acquaintance?" The girl's soft voice broke Zhao Guohui's daze.
"Huh?" Zhao Guohui was confused.
"Look at your left middle finger. Is there any obvious feature?" the girl reminded. She had heard clearly what Black Panther and his men had said. After killing Zhao Guohui, Black Panther and his men were going to chop off his left middle finger and report back to a "chief's wife."
Zhao Guohui raised his palm and looked in front of his eyes. There was indeed a hideous scar on the middle finger of his left hand. It was left when he accidentally cut his hand while chopping wood in Daqing Mountain when he was a teenager.
Could it be that the "chief's wife" who wanted to kill him was an old acquaintance of his? Zhao Guohui just thought of this possibility, then immediately shook his head. Where in their mountain village did they find any chiefs or chief's wives?
The girl fell into deep thought. The man in front of her didn't look like a bad person. Should she help him?
Kyoto City, General Zhou's family residence.
General Zhou's residence was a small three-story Western-style house within the military compound. There were five other similarly designed houses surrounding the Zhou residence, but only three were occupied by people: the Wen, Cao, and He families.
In front of the small Western-style buildings was a broad cement road. On both sides of the road, tall poplar trees were planted every five meters. It was summer, and the poplars were lush and leafy, blocking a lot of the scorching sun from the cement road.
Zhou Xi pushed the wheelchair, walking slowly under the shade of the trees. Sitting in the wheelchair, coughing occasionally, was Zhou Jinyu, one of China's founding generals.
During the war, General Zhou was struck in the chest by shrapnel on the battlefield. A small fragment lodged itself close to his lung and heart. Medical care was poor at the time, and doctors, fearing a mishap could kill General Zhou, did not dare remove the fragment, leaving it in his body.
Fortunately, General Zhou is in good health. Over the years, except for not being able to do strenuous exercise, General Zhou's health is basically the same as that of an ordinary person.
As General Zhou grew older, his health deteriorated. Since last year, the shrapnel in his body had begun to move, albeit slowly, towards his heart.
