Inside the funeral home.
Lao Hei parked the car near a trash can on the side of the main building. He observed that the whole compound could be seen from here, and the camera could not capture it clearly.
The purpose of avoiding the camera is not to prevent the car from being recorded, because this thing will definitely be discarded after use, so what he is afraid of is that he will be clearly photographed if he moves around near the car.
The three of them sat in the car and waited quietly.
Inside the funeral farewell hall of the main building, monks were chanting sutras to pray for the soul of Xue Baolai, who had just had his stitches sewn up last night.
Seeing that Xue Ping'an was seeing off his son, Shapi did not enter the main hall immediately. He just bowed symbolically outside and waited quietly.
After more than ten minutes, the ritual was over. When Xue Ping'an's men began to burn the sacrificial offerings, Xue Ping'an wiped his eyes and walked out.
"Come with me." Xue Ping'an greeted Shapi, turned around and pointed to the family lounge next to him.
Shar Pei nodded and followed him in, closed the door, and said softly, "Let's do it tonight."
"Okay." Xue Ping'an nodded: "How do my people get in?"
"When you have them arrive, give me a call and I'll pick you up." Shapi replied softly, "There's a family meeting tonight, and the old man has called a lot of people. There are security guards inside and outside, so I have to take you into the courtyard myself."
Xue Pingan took out his cigarette case and asked, "Are there any official people?"
"No, it's an internal family meeting." Shapi replied in a low voice: "When it's done, Brother Xiong will leave. I'll tell you which room the old man is in. You can run away after you're done."
"Will the blame be put on us?" Xue Ping'an asked.
"No, the old man is dead. Brother Xiong will find his connections in the police department and say that it was Yu Mingyuan and Su Tianyu from Longcheng who were intercepted on the shore, so they wanted to seek revenge and accidentally killed the old man." Shapi said in detail: "Everything has been arranged, and the Tai family's connections will also be involved. The blame will definitely not be put on you."
"Okay, I'll send someone over after the funeral." Xue Ping'an nodded.
"Dinner will be served at around five, so you can just go there at around six. It will be easier for me to handle things if there are more people."
"That's it, Mr. Xue?!"
"Hmm!" Xue Ping'an was in a low mood and didn't want to say much.
After the two of them discussed the specific plan, Shapi immediately led his people away. When he left, he did not notice that among the crowd in the corridor, there was a thin middle-aged man who had been staring at him and the room where he had just talked with Xue Pingan.
About twenty minutes later.
Xue Baolai's body was sent directly from the passage of the farewell hall to the cremation building at the back.
When the big furnace was opened and Xue Baolai's body was brought in, Xue Ping'an could no longer control his emotions: "Son!!! Dad, I didn't take good care of you...!"
Heart-wrenching cries rang out, and the thugs nearby started howling too when they saw their boss was like this.
"Brother Baolai, go with peace of mind. We will take good care of Uncle Xue!"
"Baolai, you are doing well down there, hope you can be reborn soon!"
“…!”
Amidst the cries and screams, Xue Baolai was sent into the furnace and cremated directly.
…
Outside the crematorium.
The thin middle-aged man opened the door of the van, bent down and sat in it, looked up at Lao Hei and said, "The people from the Gui family should be here. They chatted with Xue Ping'an in the lounge for a while."
"How many people?" asked Lao Hei.
"There's only one person who came into the room to talk to Xue Ping'an."
"…!" Lao Hei pondered for a while: "Is it the person in the photo?"
"No." The thin middle-aged man shook his head and replied, "But from my observation, it should be someone from the Gui family. I know all the henchmen around Xue Ping'an, but that person never showed up, and he left after the conversation."
Hearing the voice, Lao Hei picked up the phone and dialed Su Tianyu's number.
"Hello?"
“… It seems that someone from the Gui family came here and met with Xue Ping’an. We don’t know what they talked about, but they left after the conversation.” Lao Hei reported truthfully.
"My employer called me just now and said that the Gui family will hold a meeting tonight and might force the emperor to abdicate." Su Tianyu just got off the phone with Brother Pao and said, "Damn, will the Xue family make any moves tonight?"
"What do you mean?" asked Lao Hei.
Su Tianyu pondered for a while and said, "You leave two of them at the crematorium, and the rest go to Gui's house and watch to see if there is anything going on."
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Lao Hei nodded.
"Call anytime if you have any news."
"Um!"
After that, the two ended the call.
…
A little after four in the afternoon.
On Xiaoshuangniu Island, Jing Yan said to You Yifan with his hands behind his back, "There will be movement from the Gui family tonight."
"So urgent?" You Yifan replied in surprise: "I thought we had to finish the exhibition."
"The group of people from the Gui family who are cooperating with us think that the old man has noticed it and want to take action in advance." Jing Yan whispered: "After they finish, we will get the quota and return to Longcheng immediately."
"Okay." You Yifan replied.
"I tell you, Xue Ping'an wants to avenge his son, and it's no good for you and me if Su Tianyu and Yu Mingyuan are alive." Jing Yan turned his head and looked around, lowering his voice and said, "We have to make things easier for the Xue family and get rid of them."
"I have no objection." You Yifan said gloomily, "But you should tell Xue Ping'an to do things more steadily this time."
at the same time.
In the Gui Family Villa, Gui Mengxiong stood in the back hall and whispered to Shapi, "There are many people here today. We have to be on guard against the old man's preparations. Don't let him make a move first and get us. Go outside and keep an eye on them. Don't hang around in the house."
"I understand!" Shar-Pei nodded.
…
Around four forty.
Lao Hei and Guangtou drove a van to the main gate of Gui’s villa.
On the passenger seat, Lao Hei licked his lips and asked on the phone, "Is Xue Ping'an still here?"
"Yes, they're picking up bones. Damn it, even the bone residues are shoveled out." The brother who stayed behind to monitor Xue Ping'an replied softly.
"Okay, just keep an eye on it." Lao Hei replied and hung up the phone.
The bald man was driving the car and turned around to ask, "What should we do?"
"This car has been leaking at the crematorium for a day. Don't leave it hanging around. Drive the car into an alley and we'll go down and squat." Lao Hei turned his head and glanced around: "Ask Xiaozhou to drive over as well. I feel that tonight's time will be at this villa."
"Okay!" The bald man responded, drove past the main entrance of the Gui family, slowed down and turned to enter the alley next to it.
“Bang!”
Just then, the window at the rear of the van was suddenly knocked.
Lao Hei suddenly turned around and saw a man with dyed blue hair, with his back to the supermarket, a cigarette in his mouth, walking towards him hurriedly.
"Damn, what's going on?!" Lao Hei had never seen the man with blue hair when he was moving the car before, so he didn't recognize him.
The bald man was also very nervous. He held the steering wheel with his left hand and his right hand unconsciously rested on his waist.
"Stop the car!" the blue-haired guy shouted outside.
Lao Hei glanced around and saw a crowd of people at the entrance of Gui's house, and the blue-haired man was alone, so he immediately patted the bald man's thigh and said, "Stop and see what he is doing."
The van stopped, Lao Hei lowered the window, revealing his big bald head, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong, brother...?"
“Bang!”
Before Lao Hei could finish his words, the blue-haired guy slapped him on the shiny head: "Are you stupid? Who told you to come so early?!"
Lao Hei's head was bald and shiny red from the beating. He looked at him with confused eyes, stunned for a moment.
The blue-haired person was none other than the Shar-Pei who had come out to watch the surroundings. He glanced around in a panic, raised his arm and slapped again.
“Bang!”
There was a crisp sound, and Lao Hei's head shook noticeably after being hit.
"Damn it, didn't I tell you to come after five? We haven't even started eating yet, what are you doing here? What if someone finds us out?" Shapi stood outside the car and yelled cautiously, "You shaved your head, are you afraid that others won't know you're here to stake out a place?!"
Lao Hei squinted at the other person and said, "Who the hell are you?!"
"I'm your dad! Damn, so unprofessional!" Shar-Pei cursed viciously: "I saw you at the crematorium, who do you say I am?!"
“Bang!”
The Shar Pei went up and slapped him: "What are you looking at? Back up!"
The bald middle-aged man in the front seat looked at Lao Hei in confusion: "Do you want to... reverse... reverse?!"
