It was already nine o'clock in the evening when he got home after all this work. His cell phone suddenly rang. Gao Peng took out his cell phone. It was the number of the construction company.
"Hello, Mr. Gao?"
The tone there has changed a bit compared to the past few days.
Gao Peng responded, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Gao, do you have time at this moment? There are some difficulties in cleaning up the villa. I need you to come and take a look in person." said the other person on the phone.
"What's the trouble?" It's already a little late now, Gao Peng doesn't want to go out, "Just tell me."
The person on the phone paused for a moment and continued: "Some mutant plants were found in the villa. We are encountering difficulties in development. If we do not clean up these mutant plants, we will not be able to continue the renovation. However, if we want to clean up the plants, we will also need to demolish some buildings. , so I hope you can come so that we can continue with the next step of work. If you don't come, we won't dare to dismantle it casually."
Gao Peng didn't reply and frowned. It was already dark outside, but he had to go to class tomorrow, and it would be almost six or seven o'clock after class. "Okay, I'll come over later."
Before leaving the house, Gao Peng suddenly stopped because he always felt strange.
Why did the construction company call him so late? Gao Peng was thinking as he went out. When he walked downstairs, Gao Peng suddenly stopped.
Which construction company would keep working past nine o'clock at night
In the evening, I continued to work overtime at nine o'clock. I was too diligent.
I'm so proud of myself...
The most important thing is that the location of his villa is in the suburbs, which is sparsely populated. It was almost ten o'clock when Gao Peng took the car there, so Gao Peng couldn't help but be careless.
After thinking about it, Gao Peng picked up the phone again and made a call.
The phone rang for a dozen times before it was answered, "Mr. Gao." A respectful voice came from the other side.
A smile appeared on Gao Peng's face, "Manager Li, it's too late today. How about tomorrow? You can also let the workers have a rest tonight. If there is any lost time, I will pay for it."
There was a brief silence on the other side, and then he spoke again, "Well, it's really too late now, so I won't disturb Mr. Gao."
After that, hang up the phone.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Gao Peng silently put away his phone.
At the same time, several figures stood there in the suburban villa. One of them had his hands tied, his face was anxious, and his forehead was covered with sweat. He said helplessly: "Brother, I really tried my best. If he doesn't come, I won't do it." There is no other way, I can't force him to come here."
Next to him, stood a young man in a white suit. The young man's hair was combed into a three-quarter length. The most distinctive feature was his eyebrows. One of the eyebrows seemed to have had a small piece chewed off, and part of it was missing.
"I didn't expect that kid to be a bit of a ghost. It seems that he may have noticed something is wrong." A smile appeared on the face of the young man in the white suit. "It seems that he will not come over tonight."
At this time, the mobile phone held in the hand of a bald man next to him suddenly vibrated and the phone rang.
The bald man looked at the phone screen. On the screen was a photo of a woman in her thirties, with two words written on it - daughter-in-law.
"Dr. Jiang, this guy's family called him." The bald man said to the young man in the white suit.
When the man heard his wife calling him, his expression became complicated and he said anxiously: "Brother, I usually go home at this time. She will definitely become suspicious if I don't answer the phone."
Dr. Jiang glanced at the man and said, "Okay, but you should know what to say and what not to say. If I find out that you dare to secretly say anything about going to see your deceased uncle, I will let your whole family Let’s all go see your uncle.” Dr. Jiang said calmly, his tone was calm, but what he said made the man’s chest shiver.
His uncle happened to have just passed away the year before last, and these people actually investigated him.
Not knowing how much information these people had investigated, he didn't dare to be careful and made up a random lie to fool his wife.
"It seems that our time is limited. If the task can be solved simply, I really don't want to use such rude methods. After all, we are civilized people." After speaking, Dr. Jiang covered his mouth and coughed lightly.
"To be honest, I'm afraid no one in the group thought that Ji Hanwu actually had a grandson alive. If someone hadn't secretly told me the news, we might all have thought that he had no relatives."
"If the news spreads that Ji Hanwu's grandson is still alive, there will definitely be many people who want to secretly eliminate this threat." Dr. Jiang said with deep meaning. "After all, Ji Hanwu has no family. He will always grow old, but his grandson... is still young."
Wealth and silk moved people's hearts. Nantian Group has now grown into a behemoth. There are many high-level forces, and everyone has their own thoughts.
"Uh, brother, you mean to kill... Gao Peng? But why don't we do it directly?" Another short-haired man wearing black casual clothes frowned. If it was just to kill Gao Peng, why bother with it? Just go to the door and do it. .
"Ji Hanwu took so much trouble to protect and hide his grandson. He must be very concerned about his safety. There must be someone protecting him secretly. If he takes action directly... accidents are easy to happen. If Ji Hanwu is alerted, it will be troublesome." When he said the last sentence , Dr. Jiang showed a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Of course, the most important thing is, who said I wanted to kill his grandson?" Dr. Jiang was speechless.
"I just want to meet that boy I have never met before. What good will it do to us to kill him? Do you think we are qualified to compete for the power of Nantian Group?" Dr. Jiang laughed dumbly. "I'm just a researcher!"
"Kill his only grandson, and what awaits us will be Ji Hanwu's wrath. We will be the first to die, and the final beneficiaries will only be those who are truly qualified to compete for that position." Dr. Jiang put his hands behind his back .
"Brother, I still don't understand." The short-haired man shook his head.
Dr. Jiang sighed, he was too tired talking to these idiots.
"You don't need to know the specific reason. You just need to know that Gao Peng's identity is our bargaining chip, used to trade with Ji Hanwu. What's more, I am really interested in that kid. I heard that he is also a genius beast breeder. It’s a pity, it seems we won’t be able to meet him.”
There is another deeper reason that Dr. Jiang did not mention. The research institute he works for is not top-notch among the major research institutions of the Nantian Group. What’s more, in addition to research institutions, there are also security agencies, etc., so even if he is the only heir to the Nantian Group, Even if he died, it would not be his turn to be in that position, so he came here with the intention of seeking information in advance.
After all, in a sense, Gao Peng is considered the crown prince and is likely to inherit the "throne" in the future.
If he was really talented, he would bet on it in advance.
Dr. Jiang smiled half-heartedly and looked up at the sky: "The time should be almost here, Ji Hanwu's people should be here."
The trapped man's face turned pale. He had heard so much news that he shouldn't have heard, and the word "kill and silence" kept echoing in his mind.
Dr. Jiang glanced at him and snapped his fingers.
A black and white butterfly flew out from his white suit. The butterfly had previously stayed on the chest of his suit, looking like a lifelike embroidery.
The butterfly flew twice around the man's head, scattering some white scale powder, and the man fainted on the spot after absorbing it.
Rumbling, a terrifying shadow flashed across the sky, pulling out a long sonic boom cloud.
Dr. Jiang's expression changed, and the confident smile on his face suddenly stiffened, with a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth, "He actually came in person."
