The sky had grown dark and grey. On this hilltop, hundreds of kilometers away from the center of the storm, Chengdu, many things were beginning to take shape.
Lei Wei was able to come to Chengdu, a city where "two rivers surround the old city site, and the Jade Brocade City opens up in the sky". He believed that he had fought his way out through real swords and guns, and had experienced many large and small disasters and setbacks, from Bin County to Lu City, in the past turbulent years. Whether it was the "Little King Kong" who threatened that he would not be able to leave Bin County, or the "Wang Laosan", or the "Three Tigers" who almost chopped off his head, those bloody pasts, and the people he stepped on one by one, made him a Lei Wei.
With each hurdle he overcomes, his reputation in the world becomes more and more prestigious. Then he discovers the energy he can mobilize and the "face" that others have to give him. All opponents he encounters will weigh their own considerations first. If they are not strong enough, they will often not bother themselves and retreat in silence.
Step by step, he has achieved his current status and fortune, the network of relationships he has built over the years, and the rather large Xinlong... But as he looked at the dark sky in the distance, Lei Wei could clearly feel that the wealth he had accumulated over the years was collapsing.
He still has no idea who the real opponent behind the scenes is.
The lighter in Lei Wei's hand lit up and he lit a cigarette. The sparks of the burning tobacco were particularly eye-catching in the night. He had to think about it more.
The foundations around him were collapsing, and if they were to collapse, they would collapse. This time, the city of Chengdu was in an uproar. As long as he did not fall, the scattered ones would gather and solidify faster, and the number would only increase rather than decrease. This was a rule that Lei Wei had personally experienced from the time he had walked from Bin County to where he was today. Once you get over a calamity, you will be more and more afraid of others and have a smooth journey ahead.
He has already planned many methods and follow-ups. First of all, he has to find out who is the mastermind behind this attack on him. It is not difficult in fact, as there is no mouth that cannot be opened with money and no connection that cannot be broken.
It wasn't just this time, there were several similar situations before, Lei Wei had already heard about those who wanted to attack him through various channels. If he could kill someone, he would fight back like a threat, and let the other party suffer the consequences.
As for those who have no other options at the moment, they can do whatever they want, compromise, give in, or endure. As long as they can get through it, he has plenty of ways to make up for it. Otherwise, how could the "Wang Laosan" who made him avoid him at first and whose power was unmatched at that time commit a crime later and was forced to be shot by him through his connections
If you endure for a while, you will have a broader horizon, but what you get in return is his revenge later.
Lei Wei took a deep puff of his cigarette. In this world, the only thing that was burning was the red of the cigarette butt.
The next moment, Lei Wei's body suddenly stiffened, his pupils suddenly shrank into points, and then moved to the lower right. In the night when dark clouds obscured the starlight and moonlight, behind where Lei Wei was standing, at the door wall of a dilapidated and abandoned wooden house, a ghostly thing seemed to be leaning against the wall.
Then, a hand appeared out of nowhere in the darkness and took the cigarette that Lei Wei was holding from the corner of his mouth.
Lei Wei turned his head and saw Gu Xiaojun, whose skin color almost blended into the night. He was indeed a piece of charcoal.
Gu Xiaojun's leather jacket was stained and torn in many places, and there was even a bloody mark on his face from a knife cut. However, these could not hide the smile on his face. "In fact, our people found out that you were here a long time ago, probably in the early morning of yesterday. Well, your villa in Jiguan Mountain is really a bit troublesome. It did stop me for a while. Your old lover is really good to you, even at any cost. Have you ever thought that you actually harmed her? I probably got here a few hours later than you, and when I arrived... I just happened to see the sunrise. This is a good place."
"And then I sat here with you all day, so late, just to wait for this thing."
Gu Xiaojun showed the arrest warrant in his hand. "After nearly twenty hours of non-stop interrogation, Wang Guanghua couldn't stand our surprise interrogation and confessed everything. So we have legitimate reasons to arrest you now. I've waited with you for a long time. I'm very sleepy now. Let's go back and report."
Lei Wei searched around, Gu Xiaojun tilted his head, and saw figures in police uniforms appearing at several key locations in the abandoned mountain village.
Lei Wei was handcuffed. He looked away with a fierce expression, "Who planned this? Who is behind this? Cheng Feiyang from Fulong? What a trick..."
Gu Xiaojun shook his head.
Lei Wei was stunned. This biggest possibility had already missed the mark. Lei Wei felt like he had lost control of himself because he had encountered an unexpected disaster. "Feng Youting, you wanted to take over my Zhouwan Peninsula. I rejected your offer of 200 million. Now you are using this method?"
Gu Xiaojun shook his head.
Lei Wei was puzzled and a little crazy. "Zhao Lei, District Chief Zhao? He is holding a grudge. This is a huge commotion. I think he wants to perish with him?"
Gu Xiaojun still shook his head and said, "I think I still have something to say. Yes, this is the third secret."
After a pause, Gu Xiaojun said, "If I were not in my current position, to be honest, I would rather offend his father than offend him..."
Lei Wei's heart was in turmoil, and he was racking his brains to figure out which descendant of some powerful and vindictive big shot this was.
Finally, it was Gu Xiaojun's voice, "You dared to let someone slap him in the face. So you will suffer for what you have done. You deserve what you have done today. But don't worry, Liu Zhiguo didn't know who had done him wrong until he was shot. At least you know it clearly."
Lei Wei's demeanor and expression were frozen. His eyes, which were said to make people in the underworld tremble when he looked at someone, trembled. After a long while, the gang leader with handcuffs and nearly 1.8 meters tall finally uttered a sound, "... Huh!?"
Then there was another brief moment before Lei Wei laughed, "Do I believe it!?"
…
Lei Wei was held in a cell made of welded steel frames at the back of a modified Iveco driven by Gu Xiaojun and his team. In front of the Iveco was their Mitsubishi SUV leading the way. The two vehicles were one in front and one behind, without any police signs, but were moving at lightning speed in the night.
Lei Wei had his hands behind his back, with the handcuffs resting on a steel pipe under the hard seat. Lao Zhao and Jiang Chao were guarding him on his left and right. The small convoy had been driving for two hours.
The windows of the back seat were sealed tightly, and the wire mesh on top was probably bulletproof. Although it was painted black, Lei Wei could still see the faint light coming through the black windows and knew that they had entered the urban area.
The vehicle was driving in the city and then stopped on the road at the corner of Fulun Company. Lei Wei was a little confused. Gu Xiaojun, who was in the SUV in front, got out, opened the rear door of the Iveco, then lit a cigarette and asked Lei Wei if he wanted one.
Lei Wei nodded, and Gu Xiaojun came forward with a cigarette and let him take two puffs before backing out. Lao Zhao and Jiang Chao also got out of the car and stood not far from the back compartment. It seemed as if the team escorting Lei Wei just stopped by the roadside to rest and smoke a cigarette
Lei Wei narrowed his eyes, not knowing what was going on, when a figure came up to the cell and stood in front of Lei Wei, whose hands were handcuffed behind his back to the steel pipe of the stool.
The handcuffs on Lei Wei's hands rubbed against the metal and made a clanging sound. He tried to stand up, but was pulled back by the force. Old Zhao, who was standing by the carriage, looked in coldly.
Cheng Ran just sat opposite Lei Wei, looking at him calmly with a pair of eyes.
Lei Wei suddenly laughed, then turned his head and said to the outside of the carriage, "What are you playing at... Cheng Feiyang, are you outside?" Then he looked at Cheng Ran, "Let your dad come in, don't play tricks like that, I'm in trouble this time, no matter what price you want me to pay, I'll take it, we can talk about anything."
Cheng Ran shook his head. "No, I asked the car to stop here for a while. I just wanted to see you... There was no negotiation, no business."
"I just came to say goodbye to you."
…
"Alright, alright, stop playing around. I admit that you guys acted really well... I admit it, I'll apologize to you, let your dad come, and we'll talk. How much do you want? My Xinlong Group has a hydroelectric power station and a lead-zinc mine. The price is not high, but the estimated value is not low. I plan to build up the hydroelectric power station in the future and make a few hundred million. In a few years, I'll find a shell to house the lead-zinc mine, and it will be worth tens of billions conservatively. I'll give up my shares, and it depends on whether you have the guts. How about it? Are these enough? It's a lot of money for you! No matter how many things your dad sells or how many messy deals he has, he can't make this much."
Lei Wei said, "Does it hurt? It would be a lie to say it doesn't hurt. This is his real wealth, but now, how can he not spend money to avoid disaster?" However, he seemed very relaxed. Being able to talk about these things basically meant that there was no problem. He believed that the other party would not tolerate rejection.
But Cheng Feiyang, whom he was waiting for, never showed up. Cheng Ran shook his head and said, "You may have some misunderstanding about my father's Fu Long. He doesn't need the money. In the future, your evil ways will be nothing to him. And I, I don't need money either. You are even less important to me."
"Billions of billions... What are you thinking... What... do you know..." Lei Wei couldn't help but spit.
But then Lei Wei gradually stopped talking.
Because of the look in the eyes of the person in front of him, which he originally thought was that of the Green Hook Doll.
In front of a person like him who can sometimes see through others at a glance, the one who shudders at this moment is this boy, those eyes, and the deepest part of his eyes... That is not a boy.
"You don't understand. Those things you said are not much better than me looking at you now... a living fossil. We never had the chance to meet before. You are so famous. Today, we can finally meet for the last time."
"You want me dead? You want to kill me..." Lei Wei said sinisterly. The tone of his voice at this moment didn't sound like he was talking to a teenager.
"You put the noose around your own head. It has nothing to do with me."
Lei Wei laughed, "Do you think Wang Guanghua can accuse me of murder? In fact, it was the other party who threatened to shoot me... Wang Guanghua killed that person without telling me... This is absolutely true. The most I can be charged with is the crime of sheltering and not reporting the crime. I didn't give the order, so you can't accuse me."
Lei Wei smiled. This was his biggest support. He was not lying. When Wang Guanghua killed someone, even he was shocked. But he couldn't ignore the brother's loyalty, so he arranged it for Wang Guanghua at that time.
There was no evidence for the things he had done before, but Wang Guanghua was his weak spot. But now that things had come to this, it was time to abandon Wang Guanghua, to save the king. For this matter, he would be sentenced to a few years at most, and it was far from a capital crime.
Therefore, if Cheng Ran and the guy named Cheng Bin thought that they could kill him in this way, they were totally wrong. Later on, it would be the time for Lei Wei to use his tricks.
However, Cheng Ran in front of him laughed, "Even if Wang Guanghua's murder was not your instruction, you seem to have forgotten that there is a crime called organizing and leading a mafia-like organization. With your connivance and organization, murder, intentional injury, gun possession, illegal detention, financial crime and other cases were carried out around you. For a chief culprit like you who is guilty of heinous crimes, the punishment is usually heavier, not to mention multiple crimes. Secondly, the central government will soon issue a new document instructing the rectification and crackdown on gangs. You can try to defend yourself and hire a lawyer to appeal, and see if you can still survive."
"You want to put the blame on me even though I didn't do it. You want to kill me! I don't accept it... Cheng Feiyang, come and talk to me. I won't tell your son! Come out!" Lei Wei struggled to his feet, but his feet were handcuffed as well. When he stood up, he was pulled back by the handcuffs behind him.
Cheng Ran stood up and prepared to get off the car, but suddenly remembered something, turned around, raised his hand and slapped Lei Wei in the face.
"By the way, I'll give this back to you."
Lei Wei was still in a daze after being slapped. Lao Zhao and Jiang Chao came up and closed the door of the carriage. Then he heard Cheng Ran, who should have gotten off the car, talking to Gu Xiaojun outside, "He just hit my hand with his face. You heard it. My hand hurts..."
Lei Wei slammed his head heavily against the car wall, dumbfounded.
That's a... what kind of monster!
Going to bed, if I don’t see ten tickets tomorrow, I, Cheng Dachui… Humph.
