Ever since Zhao Min went to Lao Cai, a vague uneasiness has been emerging in my heart.

It seemed like she was hiding something from me.

This feeling was like a spreading fog in the middle of the night, making me feel lost and confused.

Early the next morning, He Keliang drove me to a prefabricated factory in the suburbs of Laojie.

The vehicle stopped slowly on the side of a deserted road. He Keliang seemed to be in a good mood and handed me a cigarette.

"Brother Liang, what are we doing here?" I asked.

He Keliang lit the cigarette and casually pointed to the factory not far away with his chin: "The person we are looking for will appear here in a while."

I was slightly shocked: "You mean the person who colluded with the Wei family?"

He smiled softly: "What if?"

There was a hint of confidence and playfulness in his tone.

I took the cigarette and took a deep breath, feeling my heart waver.

Others don't know, but I know very well who the person who gave the Wa money to the Wei family is.

I really can't figure out who will show up here in a while.

The air in the car seemed to have solidified. He Keliang and I were silent, each thinking.

About half an hour later, a dilapidated pickup truck slowly parked in front of the prefabricated factory.

What got out of the car was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.

His movements seemed a little cautious, and after getting out of the car, he cast a scrutinizing gaze in our direction from time to time.

I looked sideways at He Keliang, trying to confirm this person's identity.

He said softly: "He is the spy arranged by my brother in the Wei family."

I understood its intention as soon as I heard it: "Does Mr. He want to use this person to attract the inner ghost?"

He showed a proud smile: "That's right! I'm also curious about who is so bold."

I smiled too, even though I was still a little nervous: "I'm even more curious."

After a few minutes, I quietly got out of the car and walked to the bushes on the excuse of going to the toilet.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I quickly took out my mobile phone and sent a message to Zhao Min, informing her of our whereabouts and situation.

After handling this, I returned to the car and found He Keliang already standing outside the car. All the men around him also got out of the car with serious expressions.

He Keliang waved to me and motioned for me to follow: "Old Yang, let's go!"

When we were about to cross the street, I couldn't help but ask him: "Is the person here?"

He Keliang's expression became a little stiff and he nodded: "We're here."

"Who?" I asked curiously.

Just when he was hesitating whether to tell me, suddenly, a gunshot broke the silence in the prefabricated factory. Although the sound was small but extremely clear, it seemed to herald the beginning of danger.

"Fuck!" He Keliang cursed and quickly rushed to the prefabricated factory, and his men quickly followed.

I followed closely, alarm bells ringing in my mind.

We rushed into the prefabricated plant and the scene before us was shocking.

In the open space next to a pile of messy concrete bricks, the middle-aged man who came in first was lying on the ground, stained with blood, and obviously no longer showing signs of life.

But what shocked me even more was that the person standing in front of the corpse was Zhao Min!

She held a gun in her hand, her face calm and firm.

He Keliang and his men immediately surrounded him. Their expressions were stern, and their guns were pointed at Zhao Min: "Put down the gun!"

The emotions in my heart were extremely complicated.

The person who colluded with the Wei family was actually me, and Zhao Min was just acting as the transmitter between us.

I've obviously sent her a message to remind her, but why is she still here?

The moment Zhao Min's eyes met mine, they seemed to reveal a sense of relief and determination.

Her eyes seemed to say: "Don't worry, everything has been taken care of."

At this moment, my mind is filled with confusing thoughts.

Did Zhao Min make this decision on her own, or did she already know something that I didn't know?

Was she taking this action to protect me, or did she have other motives?

He Keliang looked eager and alert. He ordered again: "Zhao Yuan, I don't want to hurt you, put down the gun!"

I looked at Zhao Min, filled with contradictions and confusion.

At this moment, I realized that things may have been beyond my control.

The scene fell into a tense stalemate. Zhao Min did not let go of the gun, while He Keliang and his men stood ready.

Zhao Min's smile seemed to release all the burden in her heart. She looked at He Keliang with a kind of indifference in her tone: "He Keliang? Why are you here?"

He Keliang's expression was tense, as if he had seen something incredible at this moment: "Don't worry about why I am here! You have no way to escape now!"

There was clear anxiety in his voice.

Zhao Min seemed to have accepted the reality before her. She shrugged lightly, and then threw the gun in her hand to the ground without hesitation.

At this moment, I rushed forward quickly, pretending to subdue her, and asked in a low voice: "What are you doing?"

She didn't answer me directly, but suddenly gave me a loud slap in the face!

In this sudden thrust, I felt her push something into my hand.

I knew immediately that it was a cell phone.

I held her hand tightly and took advantage of the confusion to stuff the phone into my pocket.

This series of actions happened very quickly. By the time He Keliang and others reacted and rushed forward, Zhao Min was already beating around like crazy.

But she is a woman after all, and her strength is far inferior to these well-trained men.

Soon, she was subdued and pushed to the ground.

He Keliang gave an order: "Take her away!"

After Zhao Min was taken away, He Keliang checked the condition of the man on the ground and confirmed that he was dead.

I couldn't help but ask: "How could it be her?"

He Keliang's face was also ugly, and he said angrily: "How do I know? I still want to ask, why is it her!"

He turned his head and glared at me: "I told you back then that this woman was a lunatic and asked you not to get her out. If you insist on not listening, see how much trouble you will cause now?"

I stood there with mixed feelings in my heart.

The mobile phone in my hand seemed to be the last clue Zhao Min left for me.

Her behavior, her decision, and her relieved smile at the end all made me feel deeply confused and confused.

Does Zhao Min want to take on everything for me?

I know she is a smart person, and every decision she makes will not be without purpose.

But at this critical moment, why should she make such a sacrifice?

I couldn't help but think deeply, if she really wanted to take care of everything for me, such a sacrifice would be too big.

I had a strong feeling deep inside that none of this was necessary.

As long as Wei Rong investigates who leaked the secret and gets rid of that person, all the complicated situations will become simple.

He Hong has no conclusive evidence pointing to me, so theoretically, it is impossible for him to connect this series of events with me.

The confusion in my heart deepened.

Zhao Min's actions, her decision, and her relief at the last moment all made me think deeply.

For what reasons did she decide to make such a sacrifice?
