Chapter 207 Koike Has No Luck
Some of the younger investigators, unaware of Xu Chi's identity, immediately tried to stop him.
But when I turned my head, I saw two familiar faces on the screen.
"This...this isn't..."
Xu Chi hired two renowned engineering designers, one of whom designed the largest cargo ship in the port city in the last century.
Decades later, the cargo ship is still in the Xu family's possession, currently docked in the harbor, loaded with thousands of tons of scrap iron and steel.
The young investigator got a little excited and tugged at his colleague's sleeve.
The colleague, who was a bit older, hesitated for a moment upon seeing this, but still leaned over and whispered a few words.
The report they received an hour earlier was under a real name.
The other party did not conceal their identity.
The young investigator's eyes widened slightly after hearing this, and he subconsciously looked at the young man opposite him who exuded an air of authority in every gesture.
Xu Chi had already handed over the phone. Tu Yao took a deep breath, obediently greeted him, and immediately took the phone and walked to the nearest cargo ship.
"My current idea is to split the team into two groups. The smaller group will go to the ordinary cargo ship and pry open a small opening to prevent the workers from suffocating."
He added, "Provide appropriate reassurance further."
Bai Chumeng recruited ordinary middle-aged workers from the lowest rungs of society, who might have some underlying health conditions. These were small to medium-sized cargo ships with limited cargo space, and the thin air posed a risk of triggering illnesses.
"The rest of the people will dismantle this batch of liquid cargo ships together."
Behind him, Xu Chi watched quietly.
Tu Xiaomao's "think ten steps ahead for every step he takes" was vividly embodied at this moment.
She hadn't anticipated that Bai Chumeng would suddenly detonate the cargo ship today; no one expected such a turn of events tonight.
But Tu Xiaomao is used to making thorough preparations.
The moment he decided to completely resolve the issue of Bai Chumeng, he voluntarily proposed to learn about ships.
She wasn't the smartest, but she was the most thoughtful and meticulous.
She has a better risk awareness than anyone else.
The two engineers quickly agreed with her idea, which combined risk and human connection, and the police officers and investigators around them dared not hesitate any longer.
Half an hour later, several sections of the hull of several liquid cargo ships collapsed with a loud "bang"!
An hour later, several cargo ships began to disintegrate from the inside.
The workers stumbled out of the warehouse one after another.
The thought of escaping death brought tears to their eyes, and they broke down in tears.
The ambulance was already in place, and the police officers immediately and orderly put the person into the vehicle.
...
Tu Yao looked up, and the blue light surrounding the cargo ship had returned to above her head.
The blue orb of light shrank to half its original size, and she called out in her mind.
Little Daddy?
110 remained silent, but the blue light flickered slightly.
Tu Yao pursed her lips... It's okay, at least her stepfather is still here.
At least the results are good.
Tu Yao turned around, grinning with relief: "Xiao Chi! It's all taken care of!"
Xu Chi smiled and reached out to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
"Wow, Tu Xiaomao is amazing."
Tu Yao glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and noticed a patch of dampness on his shoulder that was almost completely dry.
She looked up suspiciously.
Xu Chi remained expressionless: "I accidentally bumped into a tree and got splashed by the puddles."
He turned his head and glanced at it indifferently.
If he wasn't mistaken, it seemed that the black mist suddenly disappeared the instant he stepped forward.
A residual force from the impact returned to him.
After he dodged, the remaining force struck a tree.
This was not a problem he could figure out in a short time, so Xu Chi chose to put it out of his mind for the time being.
"I'm going to say a few words to the investigators."
Tu Yao nodded, waited in place for a while, and watched the workers get into the ambulances one by one.
After thinking for a moment, she suddenly looked up at a police car in front of her.
Bai Chumeng was about to be taken to the police station, and several police officers were preparing to get into the car when Tu Yao walked over and pointed inside, "Can I talk to her alone?"
"It will only take five minutes."
The police officer had a very good impression of Tu Yao, this law-abiding and enthusiastic citizen, and glanced at the time: "Okay, call us anytime if you have any problems."
Tu Yao thanked her and immediately got into the car.
Not far away, Xu Chi paused slightly, raised his hand, and the other side immediately fell silent.
He smiled slightly: "Sorry, let's talk later."
After saying that, he walked straight towards the car opposite.
...
Bai Chumeng was handcuffed to the inside of the car, looking utterly disheveled.
As soon as Tu Yao got into the car, she glared at them with a cold look.
In fact, this was only their second meeting; they had failed to clash each other the first time.
The outcome of the second match is already decided.
Bai Chumeng witnessed Tu Yao's remote communication with the engineer.
He asked directly, "...How did you know the structure of those cargo ships? And who was that man just now?"
Tu Yao sat down opposite her and said calmly, "I only learned this in the last two days."
The next question was skipped.
"I don't believe it!"
Tu Yao raised an eyebrow: "Then how do you think I know it?"
Bai Chumeng sneered, "Of course it's because you're born with good luck!"
With a simple tap of either finger, the feng shui of the ship automatically adjusted to the load-bearing point of the cargo ship.
With good fortune, everything can be easily solved!
Before losing her memory, she was a short-sighted fool, but she managed to marry into the Cheng family with Chu Man and live a good life.
Even after losing his memory, he was still able to coax Tu Chaoxi and the others into submission and reconcile with them.
All of this is because of her; they are born with good fortune!
Thinking of this, Bai Chumeng couldn't help but mutter, "Heaven is really unfair. Even a billionaire like Xu Chi doesn't have good fortune, but you and a fool like Cheng Sangsang do."
Tu Yao frowned. "What did you say?"
Does Koike lack luck?
A hint of smugness flashed in Bai Chumeng's eyes.
"You'll never understand what I'm saying; it's a secret that only I know in this world!"
Tu Yao suddenly felt a little helpless.
"...Why do you always treat other people like idiots?"
They used to treat Cheng Sangsang like a fool, and now they treat her like a fool again.
"But it's okay, I also think you're silly."
After a pause of one second, Tu Yao said calmly, "To be so foolish as to attribute the success or failure of everything to luck."
Bai Chumeng's smug expression froze instantly: "You know about luck?!"
How did you know?!
Tu Yao didn't reply, and continued, "I don't have much good luck."
In that previous world, she had always been living a life of struggle all by herself.
After coming into this world, I was quite lucky, and I met only good people. Although the process was difficult, I was eventually able to turn danger into safety.
But she also understands that, in essence, she is still trying to live.
She felt happy every time she resolved her brothers' crises, but she was also constantly worried that her life might end at any moment.
She always had a clear understanding that her happiness was, in essence, always intertwined with fear.
"I don't believe it! You're only successful because of good luck!" Bai Chu immediately sneered.
Tu Yao said "Oh," and added, "If you don't believe me, then don't believe me."
"People are always more willing to believe the first person who puts their opinion into their head."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Chumeng suddenly glanced at her warily, "...Something's not right."
"You've come to test me?!"
"You know I have someone backing me? You want to know who that person is, right?"
That's why I got on the bus to see her!
Tu Yao didn't say anything.
Bai Chumeng seemed to have won the round, and said smugly, "I won't tell you! Tu Yao, you'll never know who he is!"
Tu Yao remained silent for a while, then casually raised her chin.
"Fine, I won't say. I'll find out the truth for myself."
"Since that person hasn't shown up yet, it means he's already left you and abandoned you. You can't even take care of yourself, and he can't stand alone. I will find him."
Bai Chumeng: "You!"
"Alright, it's getting late, I need to go back."
After saying that, Tu Yao jumped out of the car without waiting for any reaction from behind.
The car door closed, trapping Bai Chumeng's incredulous and furious expression in another dimension.
Tu Yao let out a long sigh of relief.
She was indeed there to test Bai Chumeng, but whether or not she succeeded in testing her wouldn't stop her from moving forward.
Throughout this journey, she often held onto hope, but also had the confidence to face disappointment.
A night breeze blew in her face, and Tu Yao felt a little cold. She shrugged lightly, turned around, and left.
Then, when he looked up, he met Xu Chi's silent gaze from a few meters directly in front of him.
Tu Yao was taken aback.
"...Xiaochi?"
