Chapter 227 Frame-up
"OK."
Shi Ming suddenly smiled. Facing the dim light in the room, he looked into his eyes gravely and said word by word, "Since you think it's unfair, then fine, let's not talk about divorce."
Gu Jiujing did not respond.
He knew very well that the person in front of him was not as easy to appease as before and would not compromise.
Sure enough, Shi Ming's next words were: "Tell me honestly, is this K who is killing and burning everywhere your man?"
"No." Gu Jiujing answered quickly.
"This is your last chance, Gu Jiujing. Think it over before answering me."
Shi Ming reminded him, or rather warned him.
Gu Jiujing's answer was still, "He is not mine."
Shi Ming stared into the man's eyes and frowned little by little.
I wanted to find some flaws in his dark pupils, to see his guilt and lies.
Gu Jiujing did not avoid or dodge, but met his gaze frankly, his eyes calm and extremely sincere.
"He is not yours?" Shi Ming asked again.
"no."
"Then why are you here?"
"I came to see you."
"Of course I know you came to see me." Shi Ming said indifferently, "I'm asking how you knew I was here, and why you showed up with Cheng Zhengze? Do you know each other?"
Gu Jiujing didn't even think about it. He looked into his eyes and answered his questions one by one: "I guessed it, because I told you that this doctor and Ning Yan are old friends. Cheng Zhengze and I do know each other. We appeared together because he was looking for Ning Yan."
"Where is Cheng Zhengze now?"
"Looking for someone outside."
"Still looking for Ning Yan? Isn't he anxious because his brother Cheng Jin is missing?"
"Looking for Ning Yan and his brother."
One question and one answer, very fast.
Gu Jiujing was probably using this method to prove to Shi Ming that he did not deceive him and that every word he said was true.
Shi Ming stared at the eyes so close to him, paused for a moment, and suddenly asked: "So you knew I was under the bed?"
"right."
"And you didn't tell Cheng Zhengze? And you led him away?"
Shi Ming raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Gu Jiujing, you are indeed a character."
It seems to be praise, but it is actually sarcastic.
Gu Jiujing was not angry, did not refute, and did not explain. He still looked into his eyes quietly and gently.
Shi Ming really admired him. Explanations were useless and counterproductive, so he immediately learned his lesson and shut up.
This person is really good at adjusting strategies.
"Gu Jiujing, I'm giving you a chance now. Do you have anything else you want to confess?" Shi Ming suddenly said.
"Will confessing lead to leniency?"
"No, but if you resist, I will punish you severely." Shi Ming frowned and said, "It seems that you are hiding something from me."
Gu Jiujing frowned and was about to lower his eyes when Shi Ming pinched his chin with his hand, forcing him to raise his head and continue to look directly into his eyes.
As if knowing he couldn't escape, Gu Jiujing hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly: "K is indeed not my man, but in fact, some things were not done by him."
Shi Ming was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Gu Jiujing said: "For example, I killed the South African leader and then put the blame on him."
“…”
"There were also some people from the old government of the Northern Continent who were targeted by me."
Shi Ming finally couldn't stand it anymore and kicked him viciously on the calf.
Then he grabbed his collar and pulled him in front of him, gnashing his teeth and saying with a cold face, "Gu Jiujing, you're quite capable of doing things at your age. Are you tired of your retirement life in the capital? Are you even working as a killer?!"
"I didn't go. I hired a killer."
After Gu Jiujing finished speaking, he saw the anger growing on his face. He seemed to have realized something and suddenly raised his hand to touch his face.
As a result, Shi Ming slapped it away.
If Shi Ming hadn't thought that slapping someone was too humiliating, and if he hadn't been afraid that Gu Jiujing would be too embarrassed to face people tomorrow, he would have slapped Gu Jiujing in the face a long time ago.
He stared at the man who showed no reaction after his hand was slapped away, gnashing his teeth as he spoke word by word, "So, what's your reason for doing all this? Is it because you simply have nothing better to do? Do you think it's fun?"
"How do you think Ning Yan will treat K, who is causing trouble everywhere?"
Shi Ming didn't say anything, just stared at him.
"You don't need to ask me, Xiaoshi. Yes, I definitely know about Ning Yan, K, and everything that happened on Rose Island fifteen years ago. I may know much more than you do."
"So what are you trying to do by killing people everywhere?"
"They gang up on the dissidents and frame others." Gu Jiujing said as a matter of course.
He seemed to have thrown everything into the wind.
He felt that since Shi Ming had already seen the other side of him that he had been hiding, and since covering up and pretending to be stupid and deceiving would only backfire, he should just tell it all—
"We don't know who this troublemaker K is right now. The best outcome is that he's just an unrelated passerby, and the worst outcome is that he's the 'Ning Yan' who was once alive."
"If it's the latter, Ning Yan will definitely be soft-hearted."
Shi Ming seemed to understand a little bit, and his eyes widened suddenly: "So you don't really care who this K is, because you didn't intend for him to see Ning Yan alive from the beginning! You appeared here not only to find me, you are also looking for K!"
"Xiao Xiao, I came here just to find you."
"You're lying!"
"No, I haven't interfered with the affairs of Continent M for many years. The only person I care about most now is you."
"What about what you just said about ganging up on dissidents, framing someone, and wanting to find K and kill him justifiably? Are you lying? Are you kidding me?!"
"You misunderstood, Xiaoshi." Gu Jiujing said slowly, "I didn't say this was my idea."
"If not you, then who is it?"
"What do you think?" Gu Jiujing looked at him gently and calmly and asked back.
“…”
In an instant, a name popped up in Shi Ming's mind.
He opened his eyes wide in disbelief. The moment the name was clearly imprinted in his mind and he realized who that person was, goose bumps immediately appeared all over his body.
The hairs on my back stood up and I broke out in a cold sweat.
Gu Jiujing raised his hand and gently stroked his face. He looked at him distressedly and whispered, "Do you think Yu Chengbai is a good person?"
“…”
"Not just him, but also your sister Shi Ying. Anyone who can reach such a high position, who would have clean hands?"
“…”
"Ning Yan too." Gu Jiujing added.
"so--"
After a long silence, Shi Ming suddenly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot and cold as he looked at the man in front of him who was so vile and shameless that he dragged everyone else into the water just because he was dirty.
He spoke slowly and clearly, "My sister asked Ning Yan to join the Northern Continent Police Station. It was Yu Chengbai who instructed her to do so."
"right."
"Initially, Ning Yan was arranged to join the NCA as a weapons expert, so that he could be promoted after the successful encirclement and suppression of K?"
Gu Jiujing did not answer this question, but just looked at him.
Shi Ming was furious and gnashed his teeth: "So the first-class merit you planned for him might actually be his former companion, right?"
The words fell without waiting for a reply.
Bang!
A crisp and loud slap landed heavily on Gu Jiujing's face.
The force was so great that a red mark instantly appeared on the side of his face.
Gu Jiujing's face turned to one side, but he seemed to have guessed that there would be such a slap, and his expression did not show any surprise.
After being slapped, he waited for a while, probably waiting for the second slap.
Seeing that Shi Ming didn't make any more moves, she slowly turned back, looked at him and said, "I've confessed everything you want to know."
Shi Ming was still furious, his eyes were bloodshot, and his chest was still heaving violently with anger.
He stared at Gu Jiujing without saying a word, his face full of hatred, and it looked like he wanted to slap him again.
After a long time, he asked in a trembling voice: "Aren't you afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, Gu Jiujing?"
After asking, Gu Jiujing laughed out loud before he could say anything. "You're the infamous living devil in the Beijing circle. You're afraid of no ghosts. Even if they die, they still have to worry about you scattering their souls!"
"Hours." Gu Jiujing hesitated, "A gentleman judges deeds, not hearts."
"Are you a fucking gentleman?! Really?!!" Shi Ming was so angry at him that he almost wanted to curse.
He closed his eyes tightly, raised his hand and pointed to the door, shouting, "Get out! Get out!"
"If you don't get out of here, I'll fucking divorce you right now!"
"Believe it or not, I'm going to die right here!!!"
Gu Jiujing finally went out.
