The Walls Have Ears
"Hey, who is that subordinate of Master Hu that you mentioned? His entire family was buried by Master Hu.”The loud voice asked the man with the pointy mouth and ape-like cheeks.
"I heard that it seems to be a guy called Zheng Qian.”
"What? Zheng Qian?" When the loud voice heard the man's words, his eyes widened in surprise and he said,"How is that possible?"
"What's wrong? Why is it impossible?" The monkey-faced man was surprised by the loud voice's reaction and asked.
"Zheng Qian has been following me for more than ten years since I first debuted. I reckon that besides the general and two marshals, he is the one that I trust the most. How could I kill such a capable helper? So the news you heard must be false.”His loud voice said with a face that made people believe him.
Hmm? He did not expect that Zheng Qian's position under Lord Hu was actually so important. This was the best. The results would be even better. When Li Fei heard their conversation, the smile on his face deepened.
Li Fei didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. He pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation between the two of them. He thought to himself, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an imperceptible arc. Everything was going according to his plan.
At this moment, four burly men suddenly appeared from the other table. They were all fat and had ferocious faces. Their bodies were covered in colorful tattoos. They did not look like good people, making people avoid them like the plague.
The four of them walked over to the two guys who were discussing. The leader was a bald man. He kicked over the two bottles of beer on the table, scaring the two guys who were discussing with great interest. They trembled and quickly looked at the person who came.
" You motherf * cker…" The monkey-faced man saw that someone was causing trouble and stood up from his seat in anger. He was about to curse, but when he saw the bald man's face, he stopped himself from cursing.
"What did you say?" The bald man looked at the monkey-faced man and asked sternly,""Try cursing again!”
"Ah, I'm sorry, Brother Lei. Aiyo, look at my mouth.”As the monkey-faced man spoke, he stretched out his palm and slapped his own mouth twice. He had to admit that these two slaps were really ruthless. The entire restaurant could hear the sound of two slaps. Even Li Fei felt pain for him. How could he be so ruthless to him? Just how afraid was this guy of the person called Brother Lei in front of him?
After the monkey-faced man finished hitting himself, he smiled and bowed to Brother Lei in front of him."Brother Lei, I didn't know it was you. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to scold you like this. So, Brother Lei, please spare me on account of my filial piety.”After the monkey-faced man finished speaking, he looked at Brother Lei pitifully.
"Hmph, scolding me today is a small matter. The two of you actually spoke ill of me in public. Do you think you've lived too long?" From this guy's tone, were they also Xiao Hu's subordinates?
As Brother Lei spoke, his voice became more and more severe. It scared the two guys so much that their legs went weak and they knelt on the ground together.
"Brother Lei, listen to me. It's the two of us who don't know what's good for us and offended Master Hu and you. You're a magnanimous person.”
Brother Lei pulled a chair over and sat at the side. He looked at the two people kneeling on the ground and said,""Humph, with just the two of you, there's no need for Master Hu to worry. I can finish you off for him now.”
When the two guys heard Brother Lei's words, they were so scared that they even peed a few drops. It was obvious that they believed Brother Lei's words without a doubt. They lay on the ground and cried,"Brother Lei, please spare us. We won't dare to do it again.”
Brother Lei looked at the two people who were kowtowing at his feet with disdain and said,""If you don't want me to make things difficult for you, I can. As long as you tell me where you heard these words from, I'll let you go and definitely won't hurt you.”Brother Lei sat on the chair peacefully and lit a cigarette. He was obviously referring to Xiao Hu's family being buried alive.
When the two of them heard Brother Lei's words, they raised their heads and looked at him suspiciously. They looked at each other in disbelief. Clearly, they did not expect Brother Lei to be so magnanimous. For a moment, they thought they had heard wrongly.
"What's wrong? You two don't want to walk out of here alive?”Brother Lei looked at the two of them and asked lazily. In his eyes, killing these two guys was as easy as crushing two ants.
The two of them finally came back to their senses and quickly said,"I'll talk, I'll talk. This is a flyer that someone gave me when I was wandering around the People's Square.”
As the monkey-faced man spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket. It was the flyer that Li Fei had asked Qing Liu to print.
Brother Lei took the flyer and saw a few lines of bold words printed on it."Xiao Hu's subordinate Zheng Qian was buried alive because he offended Master Hu's entire family. The heavens have eyes, avenge me."
Li Fei stole a glance at the words on the flyer. He did not expect Qing Liu to know how to deceive people. She added a sentence at the end. Hehe, she has improved.
Li Fei thought about it and gave Qing Liu an approving look as a form of praise.
Brother Lei frowned as he looked at the words on the paper. The people around him held their breaths and did not dare to move. They were afraid that the God of Plagues in front of them would find trouble with them. A young waiter who saw the situation wanted to go forward and take a look, but he was stopped by his colleague. Clearly, this matter was not something that a waiter like him could manage. For a moment, the entire restaurant was strangely quiet. Li Fei and Qing Liu were sitting at a table in the corner, so Brother Lei and the others did not notice their existence.
After Brother Lei read the words on the flyer, his brows were tightly knitted together. He lowered his head and thought about something.
Seeing that Brother Lei was silent, the two kneeling men asked carefully,""Brother Lei, can we go now?”
"Get lost!"
Brother Lei's simple and crude words were indeed very pleasant to the ears of the two of them. This meant that the two of them had obtained a golden ticket to avoid death. The two of them did not dare to stay any longer. They stood up and ran out.
"Hey, you two haven't paid yet?”The young waiter was obviously a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers. No one else dared to make a sound, but he had to stand out at this time. The restaurant was originally very quiet, so his shout was very abrupt. However, he did not care about others and firmly blocked the two people from leaving. They had no choice but to pay the bill.
After the two of them left the restaurant, Brother Lei and his three underlings returned to their original seats and continued eating. The restaurant slowly became lively again.
"Big Brother, you said that Master Hu, he…"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
After Brother Lei returned to his seat, his brows were tightly furrowed. He sat in his seat and smoked without saying a word. At this moment, he felt an unprecedented sense of danger. One of his subordinates saw that his boss was frowning and was about to say something when he was interrupted by Brother Lei. He did not say anything else.
The four of them finished their meal in a depressing atmosphere and were about to leave when Qing Liu stood up and walked towards them. She accidentally bumped into one of them.
"Are you f * cking blind?" That person had just been scolded by his boss and was in a bad mood. Seeing Qing Liu bump into him, he stretched out his fist and was about to attack, but his boss stopped him.
"Hurry back now. It's better to avoid trouble.”As Brother Lei spoke, he led the three of them out of the restaurant and drove away.
"Hehe, done." After they left, Qing Liu returned to her seat and said with a smile.
"What did you do?" Li Fei asked with a faint smile.
"Hehe, this." Qing Liu smiled and opened her palm. A black dot the size of a fingernail appeared in her palm.
Li Fei only needed a glance to know that it was a miniature listening device, specially distributed by their mysterious organization. Generally, eavesdropping devices had an effective distance. As long as the listener and the monitored exceeded the effective distance, the eavesdropping device would not be able to receive the signal. However, Qing Liu's was different. This kind of specially equipped eavesdropping device would not cut off the transmission between the two even if they were thousands of miles away.
"The organization has been disbanded. Why do you still have this on you?”Li Fei asked with a smile.
"Haha, it's not like you don't know my characteristics. Since I'm leaving, how can I not take something with me? It was not in vain to live there for a few years.”Qing Liu giggled as she spoke, but there was a hint of loneliness in her smile.
Although there was hellish training there, there was no warmth there, and there was only cold weapons there, in their hearts, that place was their second home. Now that their second home was gone, how could he not feel a trace of loneliness in his heart?
Seeing Qing Liu's expression, Li Fei didn't say anything. He picked up the wine and filled their glasses. Neither of them said anything. They clinked the wine glasses in their hands and drank it in one gulp. The relationship between men was like this. There was no need for too much talk. Everything was unspoken.
"Where are we going next?" Qing Liu asked.
After eating and drinking to their hearts 'content, the two of them did not have any plans for the next step. They stood on the street, not knowing where to go.
At this moment, Qing Liu's phone rang. It was the classic ringtone of the iPhone.
Qing Liu took out her phone and looked at it. She chuckled and said,""He's here."
"What's here? Li Fei doesn't understand."
Qing Liu didn't explain. She pressed her finger on the screen a few times and heard a sound coming from the phone. It was booming and there was a horn from time to time. It seemed that she was in the car.
"Big brother, thank you for earlier." A man's voice came from the phone.
"Why are you thanking me?" Then, another person's voice spoke unhurriedly.
"If you hadn't stopped me from saying those words just now, I might not have lived past tomorrow.”
"Yes." The second voice replied calmly," There were so many people in the restaurant just now. It's inevitable that the walls have ears. All of you are my confidants. I don't want any of you to follow in Zheng's footsteps because of the disaster you mentioned.”
"Thank you, Big Brother." The other person was obviously very touched when he heard their big brother's words and said emotionally.
"Big brother, do you think this is true or false? Boss Zheng had followed Master Hu for so many years. It was impossible for him to kill him just like that.”
"I don't know if it's true or not, but I haven't seen Zheng Qian around recently. Moreover, his previous place has been handed over to the downhill tiger Liao Qing.”
After listening for a while, Li Fei could also tell that the people in the recording were obviously Brother Lei and the others who were in the restaurant just now. This conversation should have been recorded by a bug. It seemed that they had not realized that they had been eavesdropped on and were still discussing Zheng Qian's matter unscrupulously.
"Hehe, Brother Lei definitely wouldn't have thought that the walls in the restaurant have ears.”Qing Liu said with a smile.
