When Zhuo Mingcheng returned to the chairman's office on the 18th floor, he found Xiao Zhuang lying on the boss chair that symbolized the chairman's authority, smiling at him.
"I don't know what's so good about this chair. So many people died for it.”
This sentence broke the awkwardness between the two of them. The game of life and death had ended last night, and Cat and Mouse had returned to their original identities.
"Power, money, women." Zhuo Mingcheng said concisely.
He noticed that the safe in the office had already been opened. There were no traces of violence.
He was stunned." You know the password??”
"Is your brain damaged? How would I know the password?" Xiao Zhuang laughed out loud." Wang Hai opened it himself, but now it's ours."”
"Not us, you." Zhuo Mingcheng corrected Xiao Zhuang and said in a deep voice.
Xiao Zhuang trembled as he took out a cigarette. After lighting it for a long time, he could not light it. In the end, Zhuo Mingcheng stepped forward and lit the cigarette for him.
The guns were in their hands. At such a close distance, no one could dodge, but neither of them fired.
"Thank you. Why did you kill me?”
"Aren't you the same?" Zhuo Mingcheng asked.
Xiao Zhuang shook his head.
"You really don't look like a killer." Zhuo Mingcheng sighed for the second time. Even though he knew Xiao Zhuang's character from the plot, he was still attracted by his unique charisma after seeing him in person.
This killer…wasn't too cold.
Xiao Zhuang smiled." I take back what I said. You're becoming more and more like a police officer now.”
He reached out and gestured to the passcode box on the table."The jewelry inside is worth at least a million dollars. How about it? Can it buy my life?”
At this moment, Zhuo Mingcheng's eyes were emotionless. It was as if a million dollars was like waste paper in his eyes.
"I've already called the headquarters. The police will be here soon.”
"I know. Besides, there's such a big commotion here. Someone will definitely call the police. You don't have to report it. The police are probably on their way.”
Zhuo Mingcheng acted as if he hadn't heard anything and continued,""Even if I let you go, you won't be able to leave.”
"I know." Xiao Zhuang said with a smile.
Seeing that he was still so infuriating, Zhuo Mingcheng retracted his evaluation of his charisma.
"And if you don't receive treatment, you'll really die.”
"I know that too."
"Then why are you still talking about this?"
Xiao Zhuang laughed." I'm just joking. I'm afraid the atmosphere is too heavy."”
Zhuo Mingcheng was silent.
"Sigh, money is a good thing. With him, we don't have to fight to the death.”Xiao Zhuang's smile gradually faded as he said faintly,"While we can still chat, chat?”
Zhuo Mingcheng was silent for a while before nodding his head subtly.
"The first time I met Jenny was six months ago. At that time, I received a mission to go to a bar to kill someone. It happened to be Jenny's bar.”
"The person who died in Darling Bar was Wang Dongyuan's confidant.”Zhuo Mingcheng added.
Zhuang nodded." Yes, during that operation, I accidentally injured Jenny's eyes." For a long time after the incident, my mind was filled with Jenny's cries of despair. Every night, I would be woken up by nightmares.
I thought that I only killed bad people, but I didn't expect to realize in the end that killing people is killing people. There's no such thing as killing good people or killing bad people.”
"Don't say anymore." Zhuo Mingcheng stopped him when he saw that his voice was getting weaker.
Xiao Zhuang shook his head and continued," Later, I couldn't help but go to see Jenny again. I found that her eyes were about to go blind, but she was still so strong. For the first time, I was touched by her strength.
Hence, she secretly protected him on her way home from work. Once, she was bullied by two delinquents. I couldn't help but rush up and beat them up.”
"The old-fashioned hero saving the damsel in distress." Zhuo Mingcheng saw that he couldn't stop Xiao Zhuang from courting death, so he could only quietly listen and comment.
Xiao Zhuang slowly told her about their relationship and even teased about the relationship between Zhuo Mingcheng and Annie.
After a long time, he sighed.""Sometimes I really envy you. At least your profession sounds so noble, but I can't tell Jenny that after her eyes recover, she will find out that the person she likes is the person who hurt her personally. What would she think?"
"So after Feng Gang died, he gave you a reason?”
"Yes." Xiao Zhuang said in a deep voice," When I came back, I was already determined to die. If I can go back alive, I will tell Jenny everything. If I die here, I have nothing to say.”
"Escape." Zhuo Mingcheng sneered.
"Yeah, it's escaping." Xiao Zhuang admitted it openly. Then, he stared into Zhuo Mingcheng's eyes and said slowly,"It's just that I didn't expect to meet you later and so many things to happen.”
Then, he seemed to recall the scoundrel Zhuo Mingcheng had once been and couldn't help but laugh.
"Look, I saved you twice, but you didn't repay me at all.”
"I admit it just now, but when was the other time?" Zhuo Mingcheng asked doubtfully.”
"The time I hit your shoulder." Xiao Zhuang looked a little sloppy, and Zhuo Mingcheng was so angry that he almost vomited blood. What did he mean by you putting your hand on my shoulder and not hitting my head?!
Damn it, don't look at how carefree he looked on the surface. In fact, he was a person who liked to haggle over every ounce! Zhuo Mingcheng was brooding over this. He had only angered him a little back then, and he had to pay him back.
"That's why I don't need to ask you for anything else.”Xiao Zhuang didn't wait for him to agree and quickly said,"You and I risked our lives to get this money. You can still move it now. Take this money and leave. It's good if you don't come back or hide it well before coming back. Try your best to help me take care of Jenny…"
"Do you think I'm Guan Yu, who can fly down the stairs?”Zhuo Mingcheng rolled his eyes and complained," You think I don't want it? There are surveillance cameras in the elevator, so I can only go down the stairs. This is the 18th floor. I don't know if I'll lose too much blood and die halfway.”
"I thought you would reject me with your theory of justice.”Xiao Zhuang teased.
