" Ring ring ring…ring ring ring ring…"
The phone booth rang with an ear-piercing ringtone. Zhuo Mingcheng, who had been waiting for two hours, smiled.
"Fortunately, I didn't wait in vain."
After picking up the phone, there was only silence on the other end. At the beginning, the two of them had a tacit understanding and did not speak.
Xiao Zhuang was patient, but Zhuo Mingcheng was even more patient than him. There was only the faint sound of electricity on the phone, giving people the illusion that no one was answering the call.
After waiting for a full two minutes, Zhuo Mingcheng finally spoke first. It wasn't because he couldn't wait any longer, but because he had discovered something very awkward.
He didn't have enough coins in his pocket. This damn machine, even if he was answering a phone call, he had to put coins in…
"I say, you didn't call just to play a game of 'whoever speaks first loses' with me, did you?”Zhuo Mingcheng laughed.
The heavy atmosphere instantly eased up a little.
"Isn't it? I thought Sir was tired of catching bad guys and wanted to play a game with me to relax. It seems like Mr. Xi has already lost.”
Zhuo Mingcheng blew lightly." You've finally reacted. But…we haven't even started yet. How do you know that I've already lost?"”
" How do you know my name?" Xiao Zhuang asked after a few seconds of silence." Who are you?"”
Zhuo Mingcheng quietly released his clenched fists, his palms covered in sweat. I'm not afraid that you won't ask questions, but I'm afraid that you won't be persuaded and won't say anything.
"If I say that I know everything, would you believe me?”
Xiao Zhuang didn't say anything.
Zhuo Mingcheng didn't try to play any tricks and said,""You've been betrayed, Xiao Zhuang. Your best brother turned around and sold you out. Think about it, only one person knows where you docked, but now so many people know. Don't you have any thoughts?”
"I'll settle my own matters. I won't trouble you, sir.”Xiao Zhuang said coldly," I don't care how you got the news or who you are. Jenny is innocent. If anything happens to her, I swear I will kill you myself!”
The more he said this, the more Zhuo Mingcheng felt at ease. This was because he could only say this much. He wanted to do something but was powerless. He didn't even know the other party's name. How could he take revenge?
"Don't be nervous. I won't do anything to her. I'm calling you because I want to discuss a deal with you.”
"I'm not interested." Xiao Zhuang said decisively, but he did not hang up the phone. Instead, he waited for Zhuo Mingcheng to continue. The subtext was violent. Lu Wuyu: I'm not interested in letting you use me at the moment, but it doesn't hurt to hear what your purpose is before deciding if I'm really interested.
"If you're willing, we can meet up tonight. You can bring as many people as you want.”Xiao Zhuang's eyes flickered. He had his own plans.
All the evidence pointed to his best brother, Feng Gang, but he really didn't want to believe that Feng Gang would betray him. According to his personality, he had to ask Feng Gang face to face before he would give up. If he added this mysterious police force, the three parties might be able to fish in troubled waters.
Unfortunately…
"Meet? Forget it. Tonight was not destined to be peaceful.”Zhuo Mingcheng did not fall for it at all. If he had someone under him, he would not mind taking the risk to get chestnuts from the fire. But now that he was alone, how could he be stupid enough to take the risk?
"How do you know?"
"I told you, I know everything.”Zhuo Mingcheng thought for a moment and said,""Let me give you a piece of advice. Be prepared early and don't die tonight.”
"I'm starting to get interested in the deal you're talking about.”
"Smart. In today's society, it's not enough for you to use me and I to use you. Only a win-win situation can last.”
"I'm starting to suspect that you're not a police officer at all."”
"Oh? Then what am I?" Zhuo Mingcheng said with interest.
"Like a philosopher."
" Ha…" Zhuo Mingcheng chuckled. As expected of Xiao Zhuang. He managed to calm down so quickly and wanted to turn the tables on him so that he wouldn't seem so passive.
"What do you want me to do?" Xiao Zhuang asked the question he was most concerned about.
Zhuo Mingcheng didn't answer. Instead, he said,""The person who wants to kill you is Wang Hai, the vice president of Dongyuan Corporation. He is Wang Dongyuan's nephew. He is also the mastermind behind Wang Dongyuan. I believe I don't have to tell you what his motive is.”
These words caught Xiao Zhuang off guard. He didn't expect to say it so directly. He didn't even make any requests! It was as if two people were negotiating, and one of them directly handed all the chips to the other person without even making any restrictions. Xiao Zhuang did not know what to say. Was this person really stupid, or did he not hand over his trump card?
"Are you surprised?" "No, don't be surprised. A win-win situation is the key," said Zhuo Mingcheng. You don't need to do anything for me now, and you don't have to worry about me making things difficult for you in the future. I'll provide information, and you'll be responsible for doing what you should do.”
"What do you mean?" Xiao Zhuang's usually clear mind was now in a mess. He couldn't figure out what this mysterious person was plotting. It was as if no matter what he did, it was actually what he wanted him to do. This feeling of being like a marionette wasn't good.
"You will understand in the future. Remember this word, win-win.”
"Hello? Hello?"
"Beep…beep…beep…"
After Xiao Zhuang put down the phone, he pondered for a long time, trying to find some clues from the conversation with the mysterious person. There was no doubt that the " win-win " that the mysterious man had repeatedly emphasized should include his act of seeking revenge on Wang Hai, and it might also include his next move.
But no matter what, he didn't even leave a way to contact her. It seemed like he was determined to send a message through Jenny. As for whether the information he gave was accurate, everything would be revealed at night.
He grabbed the phone and dialed a familiar number. The call was quickly connected.
"Hello?" Feng Gang's voice came from the phone.
"I'm Xiao Zhuang."
"Zhuang?" Feng Gang was surprised. Why haven't you left this place yet?"
"I want the money immediately." Xiao Zhuang stared at the phone and added,"I'll take it tonight."
"Alright, I'll send it to you tonight.”
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Zhuang's handsome appearance gradually distorted, and he buried his head in his hands in pain.
Being hunted down, his brother's betrayal, Jenny's illness, the mysterious person who suddenly appeared, and the little girl who cried in a pool of blood on the beach because of him…
All of these incidents weaved together into a huge net that could not be dodged and was suffocating.
