Chapter 236: A kind person is bullied, a kind horse is ridden
Chapter 236: A kind person is bullied, a kind horse is ridden
After listening to Sima Huai's description, Zeng Bo was completely at a loss.
If what the other party said was true, then he just felt that he was being excluded, or that he had offended that adult in some way before.
But after thinking about it carefully, he still couldn't figure it out.
On the contrary, as the director of the Public Security Office of the Dongleika Teachers Association, it is impossible for that gentleman to not inform me if he really wants to do something like an assassination.
Of course, the most crucial point is that with that adult’s strength, although he cannot definitely defeat President Luo, he will not be beaten to the point of running away in panic.
Looking at Russell, whose clothes were only slightly dirty, Zeng Bo touched his chin.
He always felt that something was wrong.
But soon Russell's voice interrupted his thoughts.
"Maybe." Russell's face was calm at this time, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking. "Let's go home for tonight, everyone go back and have a rest."
Anyway, he was not injured and had already identified the suspect, so there was no point in them continuing to surround him.
Upon hearing this, Sima Huai and the other two didn't waste any time talking and soon left with different expressions.
But before Zeng Bo left, Russell called him and said, "Director Zeng, please ask your people to come and help repair the area during the day tomorrow."
“These are considered as rewards.”
As he spoke, he took a thick stack of materials from the ghost soldier beside him.
Most of them are bronze and black iron grade materials, but there are also some silver grade ones mixed in. The quality is not very high and they were all collected by Russell before.
Even a slacking counselor like Hu Tao can come up with a large pile of silver-level materials. Given Russell's position, there will be even more useless materials.
In fact, some of them were donated by the subordinates.
As mentioned before, those Russells who were able to find the original owners retreated, and those who remained were those who could not be found.
This also left him speechless.
Even if he really wanted to use his connections, Russell didn't even know who sent it, so how could he help?
Having said that, in fact, according to his current strength and status, it doesn't matter if he doesn't provide these materials and lets Senior Civil Engineering work for nothing.
But since he has no use for these low-level materials now, he might as well take them out and win people's hearts.
Compared to Yin Kaka, it’s better to be a full-time player.
But if it were in ancient times, what he did would be very taboo, which would be equivalent to a border army general secretly building up power, and it would be easy to be reported to others.
But now that the Ming Dynasty has monsters like card makers, it doesn’t matter.
After all, even if you have 100,000 low-level card makers, it may not be enough for a diamond master to defeat alone.
In the extraordinary world, it all depends on who has the stronger fist.
Taking the materials, Zeng Bo lowered his head and replied: "I understand, I will take care of it tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, the middle-aged man with the expressionless face disappeared on the spot.
Seeing several people leave, Russell sighed and returned home.
Fortunately, only the bedroom was damaged and the rest of the place was not damaged, otherwise he would have to sleep on the street today.
“I feel like I can make a [wallpaper room] if necessary.”
As a prop that is used more frequently by a certain blue god of all machines in the movie, compared to other outrageous things involving time and cause and effect, space props like [Wallpaper House] are quite convenient.
If you think about it carefully, it is more suitable for card makers to explore secret realms.
Shaking his head, Russell gathered his thoughts which were beginning to wander, and asked several ghost soldiers to start cleaning up the guest room.
I'll have to make do with the guest room tonight.
In the basement of Sima Huai's house, Sun Jingrun, who had previously attacked Russell, was eating out-of-season oranges as if nothing had happened.
Thanks to the existence of cards, there is no need to worry about whether the various fruits in Ming Dynasty are in season.
After all, in the world before Russell traveled through time, he could already eat out-of-season fruits anytime and anywhere.
"How did you fail?" Sima Huaizheng said with a gloomy face and a slightly collapsed tone, "Didn't you say that you alone are enough?"
Sun Jingrun shrugged his shoulders after hearing this: "It's indeed enough. If I hadn't told you not to go with me, wouldn't you have been exposed just now?"
Sima Huai paused. He knew the man in front of him was telling the truth. "What should we do now? After this incident, he must have been prepared. It will be even more difficult to assassinate him in the future."
The chain reaction caused by the failed assassination this time is very serious, not only making Russell more vigilant.
Sima Huai was afraid that if Russell directly called for help, it would be troublesome.
What might be waiting for him by then is probably suspension from his post, and his previous fantasy of gradually becoming a high-ranking official in the court would be shattered like a dream bubble.
Sun Jingrun scratched his itchy cheek and asked tentatively: "How about I try again tomorrow?"
Hearing this, Sima Huai hesitated to speak, and finally sighed heavily: "You'd better not go and die."
"Let me spread the news about the Qiling Society attacking him tomorrow, and then we'll talk about it later."
At this point, he couldn't help feeling a little discouraged. It seemed like the situation was a dead end no matter how he looked at it.
Seeing his look, Sun Jingrun rolled his eyes and then slumped down in his chair: "Then I'll find a place to hide first, otherwise it will be troublesome if someone finds out that I'm in your house."
Sima Huai was almost annoyed at this time, so he didn't have time to care where he went: "Okay, I'll let you know if there's anything."
Seeing this, Sun Jingrun didn't intend to say anything more and immediately disappeared into the basement.
Only Sima Huai was left standing there.
Time came to the second day.
Russell sat in his own vice president's office for the first time in a long time.
"Dong dong dong."
There was a knock on the door. "Come in."
Pushing open the door, the person who came in was Zeng Bo, director of the Public Security Office.
"President, this is what you instructed me to do yesterday." As soon as he entered the door, the middle-aged man spoke straight to the point and handed the information in his hand to Russell.
At first Russell thought it was about street repairs.
But after taking the document, he found out that it was about Guiyi Religion.
Soon, he finished reading the information with a frown on his face. "So there have been disappearances all the time, and the number has increased?"
Hearing this, Zeng Bo nodded and said, "Yes, they are still targeting those gangsters, and they didn't find anything unusual according to the method you mentioned before."
Earlier, after Russell said that the Guiyi Sect might not be peaceful, Zeng Bo had already arranged for his subordinates to start collecting the most recently registered missing persons cases.
It was discovered that compared to the last time the Guiyi Sect committed a crime, the number of missing persons had actually increased.
And the actions are more secretive.
Russell rubbed his brows with a headache. If Zeng Bo could think of it, he could think of it too: "Didn't I kill that demon who could perform the so-called secret technique?"
"Why did it start again?"
"Or maybe there are new monsters coming from the north."
At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a bad feeling in his heart.
Russell just felt that he seemed to have triggered a copy of the old one after beating the smaller one.
"No, do demons also play this trick?"
After complaining in his heart, he calmed down a little.
Then Russell stood up and said, "Let's go, let's do a field investigation today."
Before leaving, he casually asked Zeng Bo: "By the way, have you told President Sima?"
Zeng Bo was stunned and shook his head honestly: "No."
"Do you need me to say something?"
Russell glanced at the middle-aged man subtly, then patted him on the shoulder: "No, this is good enough."
He glanced at the tightly closed door of the president's office and sneered in his heart: "From top to bottom, from black to white, they are all my people."
"Why are you fighting with me?"
Thinking of this, Russell took Zeng Bo and left the headquarters to investigate the whereabouts of Guiyi Sect.
But unfortunately, they didn't notice any signs until the end of get off work.
The few people who were under surveillance did not come into contact with any strange people.
After returning home and having dinner, Russell did not stay for a while. Instead, he went to the underground study room which was previously used as a meeting place for the Begging Spirit Society instead of the abandoned place.
After last night's assassination, he was no longer prepared to wait any longer.
Getting rid of Sima Huai, this disgusting fly, has now become his first priority.
In addition, Zoro has already been produced, so it should not be difficult to cooperate with Zeng Bo to get rid of Sima Huai.
It's a pity that he still needs to play the role of vice president and can't personally lead Zoro, Spider-Man and others to kill that jumping clown.
【Six: Come see me.】
After notifying Moyu to come and see him, Russell began to look through the books in the room again.
Soon, Russell's designated tool man came to the underground study: "Sixth Master, you are looking for me."
Looking at the young man flipping through a book in front of him, Moyu was a little confused for a moment: "Is there a mission from above?"
As far as he knew, the association had not issued any tasks since the Sixth Master came to Donglai.
But Russell's next words froze him: "I plan to kill Sima Huai, but it will be inconvenient for me to be present when the action is carried out, so you can continue to pretend to be me."
Moyu's head was full of confusion at this time, and he asked in a daze: "Assassination? Sima Huai?"
Russell nodded, and then looked at the middle-aged man in front of him strangely: "Don't you know that he had someone assassinate me yesterday?"
The squid was shocked and said with some guilt: "So he was the one who ordered it."
In fact, he really didn't know about Russell's assassination, but he couldn't say that he went fishing last night, but ended up fishing for a whole day and night and came up empty-handed.
He was so angry that he almost fried the fish illegally.
Then I received the message from Russell.
So he could only pretend to be shocked that Sima Huai actually sent someone to assassinate Russell.
wrong.
Sima Huai? !
The middle-aged man only reacted belatedly at this moment.
Seeing this, Russell pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly, but did not expose him: "It's him, so I'm going to kill him to save me from being upset all the time."
Hearing this, Moyu's face became serious: "Sixth Master, you are right. We should have done this a long time ago."
Russell stretched out his hand to stop the tool man in front of him from speaking, and continued: "I will let Zeng Bo cooperate with you to ensure that we can successfully kill the opponent."
"By the way, I have made a few new cards. Don't let any flaws show up in front of Zeng Bo later."
As he said that, he called out Spider-Girl, Freellian, and Zoro.
"?"
A question mark appeared in Moyu's head at this time. If he remembered correctly, not long ago, Sixth Master only had one card, Lord Spider?
