Since you are going, you must be prepared.

Weapons, body armor, and trackers are the minimum. Xie Qiuqi was worried that Zheng Shihua would set up an ambush and asked Andrew and Del to keep track.The car was parked less than one street away from the school entrance, and Zheng Ke walked down from the street to the school.

The wind is still cool in the morning, and the two osmanthus trees next to the memorial hall are in bloom, and the air smells pleasantly sweet.The closed memorial hall is dusty and dusty. Judging from the time on the seal, it has not been used for at least half a year.Right above the gate, there should have been a plaque with an inscription on it, and Zheng Ke's father's name was on it, but now there is only an empty space, and it is unknown who took the plaque away.

Zheng Ke lifted the seal and entered the door, and went to the small report hall on the second floor.A middle-aged man sat on the edge seat of the first row. In the daylight coming in from the window, his expression was numb, as if the daylight had sealed him.

Zheng Ke sat down next to him, Zheng Shihua turned around, the light was avoided by him, and the person came alive.

A person who can only live in the shadows showed a malicious smile: "Here we come."

Zheng Ke was impatient: "Say something quickly."

Zheng Shihua acted like a child and said, "You are not afraid of me, are you?"

"An old man has to be narcissistic. I don't want to talk about it, so I'm leaving." Zheng Ke stood up and wanted to leave.

Zheng Shihua called out to him: "Let me leave Macau! I will never come back, and I will never bother you again."

Zheng Ke satirized him: "That's it? You can think of better conditions."

He was ready for Zheng Shihua to tell a story, but he was not interested, not in any story.If Zheng Shihua can come up with a good price, he will negotiate, and he doesn't mind if he can't.It wasn't him who was going to make peace anyway.

Zheng Shihua was silent for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, he clapped his hands, and two subordinates came out from the curtain of the reporting desk with a hooded man.

Zheng Ke remained motionless, secretly surprised, a hostage?Who else can Zheng Shihua arrest?

The subordinate was signaled to pull back the hood, revealing a comatose man.

Zheng Ke was shocked.

——Duan Li?

He unconsciously took two steps forward, wanting to confirm the real person.

Zheng Shihua said behind him: "We have compared the fingerprints, and they are [-]% similar. He is Duan Li, and he himself admitted it. If you let me go, I will let him go. How about it?"

Zheng Ke still couldn't believe it: "Duan Li is dead."

"He's not dead." Zheng Shihua was a little proud: "Xie Qiuqi told you that Duan Li was dead, right? Even I thought he was dead. If my people hadn't found him and brought him back, I wouldn't have believed it. It should be It was Zhuang Yingkai who saved him, this kid is too fucking dead."

"...Qiu Qi said that he was with Duan Li when he died, and he felt his pulse."

"He can be rescued after 10 minutes of cardiac arrest, and it's not brain dead. How is it impossible?"

This is beyond Zheng Ke's expectation.

All of a sudden his head was in a mess.The person is Duan Li, he will not admit his mistake.Duan Li has been with his father for many years, helped his father and elder brother with many things, and even went to jail for Zheng Wei, so he was treated as his own by the Zheng family.His father recognized Duan Li as his adopted son, and Zheng Ke wanted to call Duan Li Brother Duan too.He wouldn't mistake his stepbrother.At least in terms of appearance, this person is really Duan Li.

Zheng Shihua really saved his hand, Zheng Ke would never have imagined that Duan Li was still alive.This time the plans were all disrupted.How did Duan Li survive?What has he experienced in the past two years?Why is there never any news?Xie Qiuqi couldn't find anyone?If Zhuang Yingkai saved and protected people, then why was he caught by Zheng Shihua?How many things are there that Zheng Ke and Xie Qiuqi don't know?

Zheng Shihua took out a kraft paper bag from the windbreaker pocket: "This is the inspection and information comparison we did for him, and the fingerprint verification report is also in it. You can see for yourself. In order to hide him, Zhuang Yingkai asked him for more than half a year. He lived in the basement, concealed his identity and even changed his name. If my people hadn't found out that Zhuang Yingkai was always bringing doctors home, they wouldn't have been able to catch him."

"What's going on with him now?" Zheng Ke probed his mouth and nose, he was breathing, he should just be in a coma.

Zheng Shihua explained: "When I was awake, I always wanted to rebel, so I just knocked him out. Don't worry, I just caught him last week, and I had time to verify his identity. I haven't tortured him yet. He is intact. You can take it You won't find any problems when you go back."

"If I don't promise you, are you going to kill him?"

"Zhuang Yingkai spent all his money to save him in order to find personal evidence to testify against what I did. If I don't kill this kid, I will die."

"You deserved to die."

Zheng Shihua is shameless: "Duan Li is going to jail for your elder brother anyway, and he is desperately protecting your family. You know why Xie Qiuqi picked you up at the airport that morning, right? It was Duan Li's 'last wish', otherwise Xie Qiuqi would have completely You can run away by yourself. Duan Li has saved you, and it is reasonable that you save him once this time, and you will repay the kindness."

"You don't need to remind me who is my benefactor." Zheng Ke said coldly, "Wake him up, I have a few words to ask."

Zheng Shihua calculated that he was going to "inspect the goods" further, and asked his subordinates to bring cold water to wake Duan Li up.

Duan Li coughed and opened his eyes, seeing Zheng Ke's pupils constricted, as if he hadn't expected to see a living person.

Zheng Shihua backed out, giving space to the two of them.Zheng Ke's hands trembled a little, he helped Duan Li up, and wiped off the water on his face with his sleeve.

Duan Li lowered his head and called respectfully, "Second Young Master."

This voice was from Zheng Ke's memory, his teeth were chattering: "Brother Duan, are you...really alive?"

Duan Li nodded and smiled: "I made you worry, I didn't expect to save my life."

"I always thought you were gone. Zheng Shihua said that Uncle Zhuang saved you, but Uncle Zhuang never told me about it. Is it true? How did you... escape? Qiu Qi clearly said that he Looking at you in front of him..." Zheng Ke was a little incoherent.

Duan Li froze, and suddenly raised his face: "Is Qiu Qi alive? How is he? Is he okay?"

"He's fine. He's the one who's been protecting me."

"He's alive...we're all alive..."

Zheng Ke was also happy: "Yes, we all survived."

A pair of righteous brothers embrace.Duan Li's hands were tied and he couldn't respond, Zheng Ke took the initiative to hug him.

"It's really lucky, I was really gone within a minute," Duan Li licked his lips, "Just as Qiu Qi left, Zhuang Yingkai's people arrived at the safe house, so Hades didn't take me away. At that time, the heartbeat had stopped, and I forced the electrode plate to be pulled back."

"Why haven't you contacted us?" Zheng Ke asked.

"I don't know where you are, and I'm afraid of getting into trouble. I've been lying on the hospital bed for more than half a year, and then I've been locked in the basement, rarely going out, in order to avoid being chased and killed. I didn't expect to miss it in the end. I'm sorry, give You are in trouble."

"Don't say that, you have tried your best to save your parents and brother."

"It was my dereliction of duty that I failed to keep my adoptive father, adoptive mother and Zheng Wei."

Zheng Ke shook his head: "With your strength alone, it is too difficult to keep the three of them."

Duan Li pretended to be relaxed and said: "Knowing that you are still alive, the adoptive father will be very happy. His last wish is to keep you. The Zheng family has not lost hope, and he can sleep peacefully under the Nine Springs. Don't worry about me, Zheng Ke, don't accept any of Zheng Shihua's conditions, it's no big deal to leave me alone." It seemed that he already knew what conditions Zheng Shihua would ask.

"You survived so hard, I can't do this." Zheng Ke was unwilling to give up on him.

Instead, Duan Li persuaded him: "Zheng Shihua is your most important target right now. You can't let foster fathers sacrifice in vain. If you let him go for me, even if I survive, what face do I have to walk on the street? Zheng Ke, You have to think about the big picture."

Zheng Ke dismissed it: "Fuck the big picture."

Duan Li felt that he was very different: "You didn't look like someone who would say such things before."

"If it was Qiu Qi, he would say the same. Every time we talk about you, he is very sad. Don't you want to see him? He will be happy too. Our family can finally be reunited." Zheng Ke explain.

"If he knows, he's definitely not willing to give up on me. Don't embarrass him again."

"He is very powerful, he can do anything. And now he is his own boss, with strength and financial resources."

"That's good, I knew he was a man of great promise."

Zheng Ke made up his mind: "Don't worry, I won't leave you alone."

After thinking about it, he turned around and went out to talk to Zheng Shihua about the deal.

Seeing his expression, Zheng Shihua was confident: "The inspection is over? How about it, it's real, can I still lie to you?"

"It's okay to let you go, but I have conditions." Zheng Ke said coldly: "I'll give you three days, you can go anywhere, but after three days, I don't guarantee that I will do anything Duan Li left it to me."

This is his bottom line.It is impossible for him to let Zheng Shihua go completely.

"Deal." Zheng Shihua was also very straightforward.

"You'd better run away so that I don't find you. After three days, if you are caught by me, Zheng Shihua, how many bullet holes my parents and brothers have, I will return them to you."

"Don't speak harsh words too early, Ake."

Zheng Shihua recruited his subordinates to take Duan Lixian out.He and Zheng Ke walked out from the memorial hall together.

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to mention something, although it has nothing to do with me." Zheng Shihua smiled inexplicably, "But it seems impossible to justify it without reminding you. You should know about the relationship between Duan Li and Xie Qiuqi, right? "

Zheng Ke frowned: "What do you mean?"

Zheng Shihua was a little surprised: "You don't know. Oh, if I knew it earlier, I wouldn't say it."

"Speak clearly." Zheng Ke's face darkened.

Zheng Shihua lowered his voice: "I also found out by accident. The people below searched and found a photo of Xie Qiuqi in Duan Li's wallet. Also, it is said that when Zhuang Yingkai rescued him, he went to the insurance company because Duan Li bought it. For personal insurance, the insurance company can pay in case of an accident. As a result, you guess, who is the beneficiary of his insurance?" Before Zheng Ke's expression changed, he smiled and said, "It's Xie Qiuqi."

Zheng Ke seemed to be splashed with cold water.

"So you don't know." Zheng Shihua looked at him sympathetically: "Then you two knew each other in prison, right? Duan Li fell in love with Xie Qiuqi at that time, didn't Xie Qiuqi tell you? He was Duan Li's master It was trained, otherwise you think he suddenly developed this ability today? Don't blame me for not reminding you, Duan Li is back now, you, Xie Qiuqi's current boyfriend, should be more careful, don't Then the boyfriend ran away with someone else."

"You liar!" Zheng Ke grabbed his collar: "Zheng Shihua, there must be a limit to slander."

Zheng Shihua is very innocent: "Who did I slander? You can ask the surname Xie yourself. Are you just an adult Zheng Ke? There are many such things in prisons. Who knows how many times Xie Qiuqi has done it for him... Ah! "

Without saying anything, he was directly knocked to the ground by Zheng Ke's fist!This strike was so heavy that Zheng Shihua broke a tooth on the spot.Seeing this, the two subordinates were about to come up to pull people, but Zheng Ke's fists were shaking with anger.His ears were ringing, and he felt nothing for a moment.

There is only one voice in my head.

——Xie Qiuqi had an affair with Duan Li?

The author says:

Zheng Shihua doesn't know how to tell stories, because no matter how he tells a story, it is impossible to clear it up.Zheng Ke would not listen either.To let Zheng Ke let him go temporarily, he must have enough chips in his hand.The storytelling is too weak.
