Chapter 61 Fragments
Chapter 61 Fragments
Lao Mi was also very nervous when he saw the black muzzle of the gun pointing at him. He slowly raised his hands to indicate that he was not a threat, and kept saying, "Wait, the thing is not with me. It's useless even if you kill me..."
Ren Xiaotian didn't seem to hear what he said, and said, "If you don't take it out when I count to three, I will beat you to death, one..."
"Hey, don't do it. I told you, the thing is not with me..." Lao Mi seemed very aggrieved.
"two……"
"Hey, it's really not here..."
"three!"
"Stop, stop, stop! I'll give it to you! I'll give it to you!"
When Ren Xiaotian counted to three and was about to pull the trigger, Lao Mi saw that he was serious and shouted loudly.
Ren Xiaotian paused, stared at him and said, "Thing!"
Lao Mi said: "It's not with me, wait wait, it's over there... I'll ask them to bring it over..."
Under Ren Xiaotian's gaze, he carefully took back one hand, slowly pulled out a piece of red cloth from his pocket, raised it above his head, and waved it behind him more than ten times.
Chen Chuanyu saw that about two or three hundred meters away, two people crawled out from the ground and walked towards them holding something like a box.
Ren Xiaotian did not put down his gun. He waited until the two men were about ten meters away from them before he said, "Put it on the ground and move away."
Lao Mi also hurriedly said, "Listen to him, put it on the ground, put it on the ground."
The two men looked at each other, put the things on the ground, and then moved back carefully.
Chen Chuan took a look at the box. It looked like a mechanical roulette wheel, and was gray-silver in color. He had no idea what it was.
Ren Xiaotian pointed the gun over there and said, "Go open it."
Lao Mi muttered, "That's the thing, there's no doubt about it..." But he didn't dare to disobey and walked over anyway.
Ren Xiaotian signaled Chen Chuan to stay where he was and let Lao Mi walk in front. When they got inside, Lao Mi bent down to pick up the thing, then held it with both hands, turned the lid on it a circle, and lifted it up.
Chen Chuan took a look and saw that the box contained something like broken tiles, but there were thin strands of red silk threads on it, which emitted a faint fluorescence, so he couldn't tell what it was.
Just at this moment, he suddenly realized that the second me was a little blurred, and his eyebrows raised, which undoubtedly meant that something had caused slight damage to him.
At this time Ren Xiaotian signaled Lao Mi to close this thing, and at the same time, the blurring phenomenon of the second me also disappeared.
Chen Chuan was now certain that the damage must have come from this thing, but what exactly was it? Radiation? Chemical pollution? Or something else?
Ren Xiaotian stepped forward and snatched the thing. Lao Mi said anxiously: "Here I give it to you. Trading voucher! Trading voucher!"
Ren Xiaotian took out a stack of Jiaoshan's common trading coupons from his pocket and said, "I'll give it to you, back off."
He used his gun to signal Lao Mi to step back, then returned to the car, asked Chen Chuan to get in first, threw the trading ticket far away, then opened the car door and quickly returned to the car.
Chen Chuan saw that almost at the moment the trading tickets were thrown out, three people including Lao Mi immediately ran over there, picked them up one by one and started counting them.
Ren Xiaotian put the box into a luggage bag he had prepared in advance, zipped it up, started the car, turned it around, and drove back along the road he came from.
Chen Chuan then asked, "Brother Ren, have we completed this assigned task?"
Ren Xiaotian said: "Send it back and it's done."
Chen Chuanben thought that there would be some twists and turns, but if Ren Xiaotian had not acted decisively and exposed Lao Mi's lies, things would have been much more complicated.
He said: "How did Senior Brother Ren know for sure that the thing was on him?"
Ren Xiaotian said, "I'm not sure." After a pause, he said seriously, "You must not enter the village. If you enter the village, you will die."
Chen Chuan thought about it and expressed his understanding. This place is far away from Yangzhi, and one cannot use the habitual thinking in the city. It is a completely different order here. One has to know that people can do anything to survive.
The client who carries out the specific task shall bear all risks by himself. If he follows into the village, he will be responsible for anything that happens afterwards.
Look at it from another angle. Those people clearly had the things on them, but they still wanted to trick them into the village. Their intentions were very sinister. If they were not determined and followed them, they would most likely be killed by this group of people.
This was a lesson for him. He asked, "Brother, can I ask what's in the box?"
Ren Xiaotian shook his head and said, "I don't know. The client wanted it. I had it before." After a while, he added, "I found it in the garbage dump at Jiaoshan."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Has Senior Brother Ren been here many times?"
Ren Xiaotian said: "Seventeen times in the north, this is the first time in the south."
Chen Chuanxin said that he remembered it very clearly, but he was also wondering, what on earth was it?
Although he was very curious, he didn't want to find out the truth. He just reminded him vaguely, "Brother Ren, that thing doesn't give me a good feeling."
Ren Xiaotian looked at him, nodded, and said seriously: "I won't answer it anymore."
On the way back to the city, Chen Chuan noticed that he did not take the original route, but drove south and made a circle, apparently preparing to return to the city from the south.
Although Ren Xiaotian did not explain anything specifically, he realized from this action that this should be a precaution against colleagues, or perhaps... also a precaution against the company.
It can also be seen from here that clients like Ren Xiaotian and Wei Changan seem to be very different, and the people they deal with are also different.
He asked, "Brother Ren, are you able to carry a gun because you have a weapons permit?"
"Yes."
Ren Xiaotian turned his head and looked at him, saying to him seriously: "The weapon license is very important."
Chen Chuan nodded, and Cheng Zitong kept emphasizing this matter over and over again.
Once when we were having dinner together, I told him that if you want to be more extreme, you go to Wuyi just to get a certificate. Even if you don’t learn the skills well, you can still study again after graduation. However, these certificates can only be taken in Wuyi, and if you can’t get them, you can’t get them.
In addition, some certificates require a basic certificate as a prerequisite, and a firearms license is one of the prerequisites.
While driving, Ren Xiaotian paid close attention to the outside world. On the way, he saw a modified convoy from a distance. It was very likely an illegal organization hiding here, but fortunately, they did not pay any attention to them.
There were no accidents on the rest of the way and we returned to the city smoothly. We came to a parking lot in front of a shopping mall near the city center, turned in and parked.
Ren Xiaotian made a phone call first, and after a while, he saw a car driving over and stopping not far away. Two strong men in security uniforms got out without any markings on their bodies.
Ren Xiaotian also walked down with the bag. He asked these people to check the things first. After confirmation, one of the men signed the form handed over by Ren Xiaotian, then took the things away and drove away quickly.
After Ren Xiaotian came back, he gave him a copy of the carbon paper and said, "It's done. I'll take you back to school."
Chen Chuan put the list away and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Ren."
Think about it, this time he almost just followed along and completed a delegated task.
Although it looks simple, there are actually many things to consider. If a novice does this kind of delegation, he may fall into a trap accidentally.
After leaving here, the off-road vehicle drove towards Wuyi. As the distance was not far, it arrived at the school in just a few minutes, and then slowly slowed down in front of the dormitory building.
At this time, Chen Chuan saw a familiar figure carrying something into the building. He ran very fast, took three or two steps up the stairs, and disappeared in a flash.
Ren Xiaotian stopped the car and said, "We're here."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Thank you, Senior Brother Ren."
Ren Xiaotian grabbed the steering wheel with both hands, looked ahead, and said, "No thanks, you're welcome."
Chen Chuan said, "See you later, Senior Brother Ren." He opened the door, got out of the car, and walked into the building.
Ren Xiaotian looked back at him, and waited until he entered the building before starting the car and leaving.
