Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free
Chapter 357 Thinking Beautifully
Zheng Fan knew that the person whose consciousness was controlled would not resist at all, so he was not worried that she would run away. Gu Tongwan raised her head and looked at the small western-style building. It can be said that the buildings here are very luxurious, and there is a green lawn outside the villa area, and even some uncommon flowers are planted on it.
It seems that the Zheng family is indeed very powerful in the base. The manpower and funds needed to maintain this yard on a daily basis are not small. And just looking at the villa areas in the car, the smallest villa area is the cheapest one, with only 123 or 124 square meters on one floor. It is a two-story small Western-style building with no open-air yard outside. It is said that the monthly rent of such a villa is more than 3,000 points.
As for the villa complex in the middle, the villas begin to have small courtyards, and the area of each floor is at least 200 square meters. Many cars can be seen outside, and the architecture of the small buildings also has a better sense of design.
At this time, there was a man squatting in the yard smoking. When he heard someone entering the yard, he immediately stood up. His expression changed very quickly from impatience at the beginning to flattery.
"Cousin, you're back?" Yuanfeng walked over and greeted Zheng Fan with a smile.
The man was Zheng Fan’s cousin. Before the end of the world, his family happened to meet Zheng Fan’s family on the way to escape. So Zheng Fan, thinking of his own sister, brought all the relatives he knew to the base. But in fact, Zheng Fan looked down on these relatives from the bottom of his heart.
Unless they are relatives who are doing particularly well, in Zheng Fan's eyes, these relatives are all parasites who come to suck the blood of the Zheng family, especially the Yuanfeng family. His own aunt ignored the objections of her family and insisted on marrying a poor loser. Obviously, she came from a good family. Grandma Ye Ye had doted on her little daughter since she was a child. Unexpectedly, the girl she had raised for more than 20 years gave up the entire family for a man, and even severed ties with her family from then on.
Until five or six years ago, something happened in my aunt's family. The man she married died in a car accident. My aunt had to take care of her son who had just entered college, so she had to return to the Zheng family with a flattering face. Until their death, my grandparents were still thinking about my aunt. Therefore, Yuanfeng was indeed very favored in the Zheng family in the first two years after he returned. Even his wife thought that Yuanfeng was a smart but low-key and steady person. Occasionally, she would praise him in front of her. It was even heard that Yuanfeng had a good relationship with the illegitimate child outside. This made Zheng Fan more dissatisfied with this so-called cousin who was a traitor.
Recently, Yuanfeng often went to Zheng's house. It seemed that his father had told him something, and the two of them often talked in the study, but even his biological son didn't know the specific content.
"My dad went to Kyoto for a meeting for half a month, why are you here?"
Zheng Fan spoke in an impatient tone, and he didn't even want to look at his cousin.
Yuanfeng was used to it. After all, Zheng Fan had never treated him well before. Moreover, he still needed the support of the Zheng family. As long as he needed to rely on the Zheng family, Yuanfeng would have to look at other people's faces.
The disgust in his eyes immediately faded, and Yuanfeng smiled and replied, "Oh, I got some goat milk from a friend. I heard that it tastes good, so I sent it to grandma to try. She has been in poor health recently, and I heard that drinking some hot goat milk at night can help you sleep."
"Tsk, you are quite filial." Zheng Fan couldn't help but sneer, his words full of sarcasm.
Currently, Mrs. Zheng lives in the villa. Although Zheng Fan's father always acts bossy in public, he is actually a filial son. Since her grandfather passed away, the old lady's health has been getting worse and worse. Currently, the whole family is trying to find ways to regulate the old lady's health.
Zheng Fan didn't have much affection for the old lady, mainly because he grew up abroad when he was a child. After returning to China, he often heard Yuan Feng's name from the old lady. He even heard the old lady muttering to the servants in private that he was a worthless person. Therefore, Zheng Fan hoped that the old lady would pass away sooner.
Yuanfeng smiled but said nothing. His eyes fell on Gu Tongwan behind Zheng Fan. He was somewhat amazed when he first saw her, but he did not keep his eyes on her for too long like he did with other men.
In fact, Yuanfeng has always had a bad impression of this cousin. Apart from relying on his status and background to live a life of debauchery, Zheng Fan is simply the person who best fits the saying "mud cannot be helped".
Especially after his uncle took the position of deputy base commander, Zheng Fan began to mix in the so-called circle of children of the powerful and wealthy, and even raised a group of scums under his hands. They did a lot of evil things in their daily lives, and their temperament and character were not good. They were always full of jealousy and vigilance towards his entry into their circle.
However, Yuanfeng endured all of this. After all, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Showing weakness appropriately was only because he had more important things to do.
"By the way, has the old lady gone to bed?" Zheng Fan glanced at the empty living room and asked with a somewhat impatient tone.
"No, she's still in the room. She just had lunch. She said she's been sleeping too much lately and the weather is too hot. Oh, by the way, cousin, I think the air conditioner in grandma's room doesn't seem to be cooling well. Should we repair it or buy another one? After all, the old lady is not in good health. It would be better to lower the temperature in the room so that she can feel a little more comfortable."
Zheng Fan just curled his lips and sneered, "You are talking without any hesitation. Don't you know that the price of air conditioners in the base has skyrocketed? Even for people with our background, it will take at least ten days or half a month to get one. Besides, the one in the old lady's room is still usable. Although the cooling is a little worse, it is much more comfortable than the living room. Besides, she didn't say anything herself."
Yuan Feng opened his mouth, but finally nodded coldly, and then said, "Then you go ahead and do your work, cousin. I have something to do here, so I'll leave first."
Yuan Feng walked around to the outside of the yard. At this time, he could still hear Zheng Fan cursing in a contemptuous tone behind him: "Do you really think you are a member of the Zheng family? You are just a dog running errands. Do you think you are so powerful?"
Yuanfeng's face suddenly darkened, but he did not get angry immediately. Instead, he went around to a van outside. This car was in sharp contrast to the luxury car that Zheng Fan had driven before. It even looked a bit shabby. There were dents and scratches on the outside of the car. It was obviously a second-hand product bought from somewhere.
His car didn't have air conditioning and the temperature inside was very high. Yuanfeng started sweating as soon as he got in, and his shirt was soon soaked with sweat.
I only saw Yuanfeng take out a bottle of water from the passenger seat and take a few sips, then he squinted his eyes, picked up the phone and called someone.
"Hello, it's me. Zheng Fan has brought someone back to the villa again. This time it's a beautiful girl. It looks like her consciousness is also under control. Yes, just now."
There was a burst of electric noise from the other side, and soon the other side replied: "Got it, you continue to keep an eye on Zheng Fan. Now is not the time to close the net. Make sure that there is solid evidence of his guilt. Only in this way can we completely bring him down. Don't let him have any chance to turn things around."
"I know. I am more anxious about this matter than you. The only person in the Zheng family that I am worried about is my grandmother. I don't care about the lives of the rest of the people." Yuanfeng's eyes suddenly became sharp, completely different from the slightly humble look he had just shown in front of Zheng Fan.
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Please be patient for a while. The Zheng family's good days are coming to an end. But I didn't expect you to be so determined to cooperate with me. I thought you would consider it for a while."
Yuan Feng sneered instead: "When it comes to being ruthless, I am not as good as you. Zheng Tian is your biological father. Hasn't he been training you privately in recent years? If he knew that his own son was planning to plot against him, I wonder how he would feel then."
The man on the other side seemed to be indifferent and said with a smile: "Apart from the blood relationship, I really can't think of any connection with him. If he hadn't abandoned me and my mother, we wouldn't have suffered so much for so many years. And don't think I don't know that Zheng Fan's body has been hollowed out over the years, so he has no way to inherit the Zheng family's incense. Zheng Tian knew that he couldn't afford to have one son, so he planned to bring me back to train. And sooner or later, the things he did privately will be spotted by others. I'm not stupid enough to get involved in the Zheng family's mess."
Yuanfeng curled his lips, and the coldness in his heart gradually grew. In fact, he and the so-called illegitimate son of the Zheng family knew very well that the father and son of the Zheng family were actually birds of a feather. On the surface, Zheng Tian was his uncle and had done favors to him and his mother, but in fact, the man who forced his mother to marry another man and even threatened his mother several times after she gave birth to him were all privately designed by Zheng Tian. He just wanted Yuanfeng's mother to marry a powerful local family.
The most important thing is that when Yuanfeng was investigating his father's accidental car accident, he found that it was related to the Zheng family. It was even very likely that Zheng Tian sent someone to fake the car accident scene. This was simply a murder case rather than a simple car accident.
Yuan Feng squinted his eyes and watched Zheng Fan and his group enter the villa in the yard, then he put the car in gear and drove away.
Gu Tongwan was observing the surrounding environment and discovered that there seemed to be a small house behind the yard. It was about two stories high and its area was less than half of the villa. The two buildings were only a dozen meters apart, so the actual area of the entire yard was at least the size of two basketball courts. Among the villas he had seen along the way, the Zheng family's was the largest.
After Zheng Fan and his group entered the villa, the other people looked very familiar, especially Zheng Fan, who fell directly on the sofa with his arms and legs spread out. A psychic next to him immediately lit a cigarette and handed it to his mouth.
"One of you goes up and takes a look at the old lady's condition." Zheng Fan raised his eyelids and glanced upstairs.
A psychic next to him went upstairs immediately. At this time, the remaining few people also sat around the coffee table. Zheng Fan took a puff of cigarette and looked at Gu Tongwan who was sitting farthest away.
In fact, people whose consciousness is controlled by psychics are not the walking dead in the traditional sense. They are more like following certain instructions. However, they can still think about other things outside of the instructions and can move around freely. So after Gu Tongwan went in, he also sat on another single sofa chair.
Zheng Fan was not as impatient as before, probably because he thought that Gu Tongwan had been brought back and could not escape, and there would be plenty of time to train him slowly in the future, because he was not in a hurry to deal with Gu Tongwan.
A few people continued chatting here.
"Young Master Zheng, the black market underground money house recently sent people over to urge us, saying that they would give us another half a month. If we can't collect two hundred thousand in half a month, we won't be able to hold on. The thugs over there are all psychics, and they also have people in the Security Bureau. If things get out of hand, I'm afraid it will affect Director Zheng's election next year." The person who spoke was the B-level psychic who had previously controlled Gu Tongwan with his psychic powers. His last name was Kong Fang.
Another B-level psychic also took over the conversation: "The people from the Huang family have been trying to find connections recently, and they seem to have set their sights on the position of base leader. It is said that they have connections in Kyoto, and are now trying to find a way to get hold of the Zheng family's handle."
Zheng Fan frowned when he heard this, and gradually regretted that he had made a mistake in investing a large sum of money on Shen Lian. Who would have thought that the psychic who killed the Saker Falcon was not Shen Lian, but a woman who came out of nowhere and killed the Saker Falcon, causing Zheng Fan to lose all the 50,000 or 60,000 yuan he had invested, and even had to pay a large sum of extra money, which added up to more than 200,000 yuan.
In fact, it's not that the Zheng family can't come up with the two hundred thousand, but with the general election next year approaching, most of the Zheng family's funds have been used to win over various high-level officials and various forces. The initial investment is as high as one million, so now the Zheng family has bet everything on this. Therefore, if they knew that Zheng Fan still owed hundreds of thousands privately, even if Zheng Tian was willing to take out the money to repay his son's debts, he would definitely not continue to train Zheng Fan in the future. After all, there is an illegitimate child outside, and the balance in Zheng Tian's heart would probably gradually tilt.
After biting the tip of his tongue hard, Zheng Fan's eyes fell on Gu Tongwan, and then he looked at Kong Fang: "Can you continue to use your mental power to get information about the maintenance team behind her from her?"
Kong Fang frowned and shook his head. "Not yet. I have already used up a lot of mental energy in dealing with the mutant giant wolf in the store. In addition, controlling her consciousness and making her tell useful information requires even greater concentration. I need to get a good rest tonight so I can continue tomorrow afternoon."
Although Zheng Fan was not worried about Kong Fang's delay at this time, he thought that the matter was too important to go wrong. In addition, he had been frightened this morning. After returning home and relaxing, he felt sleepy. So he nodded listlessly, "Okay, let's set it for tomorrow afternoon. But before that, I want to take this girl to the house in the back and find a superpower to keep an eye on her. Also, no one is allowed to touch her before I give the order, otherwise I will make him pay for it!"
