drowning tide

In the study in the north wing of Wen's mansion, Wen Zhengting, who had just finished a teleconference, was leaning on the chaise longue, listening to his confidant assistant report to him.

"The last time your whereabouts were leaked came to fruition. There were traitors in the security, and those involved were locked up in the old place. Do you want to deal with it yourself?"

The assistant is a fair and handsome young man who wears gold-rimmed glasses and can't tell his actual age.

It is said that his mother was Wen Zhengting's favorite mistress, who blocked a shot for Wen Zhengting and died. Perhaps it was because of empathy. Companion.

Many people, including Wen Fan, thought that Wen Zhengting was nurturing his youngest son's future confidants, but who would have thought that when Wen Fan became independent, Wen Zhengting would call the child back and take him with him, give him the power, and let him be his best friend? close confidant.

Many people who knew about this past had to feel that if that woman had worked hard to give birth to Wen Zhengting's son, Wen Zhicheng and Wen Fan would really have nothing to do today.

Wen Zhengting waved his hand sleepily, and said in a languid way, "I will deal with it this time as I did before, and leave it to you."

Since he got this disease, he seldom does this kind of thing with his own hands. It is called to accumulate virtue for himself without seeing blood.

"I see, the resume of the newly replaced person is here."

The young assistant conjured up a bulging portfolio, "There are six in total, all here."

Wen Zhengting unsealed the seal, took it out and flipped through the pages, "I can trust you to do things."

The assistant smiled humbly, as if he didn't take his praise to heart, suddenly his eyes turned to the grandfather clock next to him, "It's already this time, you should take your medicine."

Before Wen Zhengting could answer, he went to the cabinet and took out a small locked box, and skillfully entered the password, revealing the bottles and cartons inside.

Basically, they were imported medicines that even rich people might not be able to get. He prepared them in proportion and handed them over on palm-sized cellophane.There was a hint of disgust in Wen Zhengting's eyes, but he still swallowed it all up, then took a big sip of water from the glass.

Because of an interruption, Wen Zhengting didn't read the middle pages carefully, and he remembered that he was a mercenary in Southeast Asia. After reading it, he threw the file aside, "The real identity of Yin Yuan has not yet Find it out?"

The assistant didn't pick up those files, thought for a while, and said cautiously, "Not yet...I suspect someone is obstructing."

Coincidentally, several people who were involved in Nie Xicheng's assassination of Xu Laodao back then had a little accident, and they couldn't give a letter for a while, so they could only investigate from Yin Yuan first.

"If you can't find out, I won't investigate." Wen Zhengting said in a flat tone, "It doesn't matter what tricks he has, as long as he is in Rongcheng, he has to be manipulated by me."

This sentence has already sentenced Yin Yuan to death. The dead are the safest and least likely to cause turmoil.

Like Nie Yuansheng back then, Wen Zhengting now regards killing him and replacing him as the most correct decision in his life.

"But he is Madam after all..." It was the helper Madam found for the Eldest Young Master.

Wen Zhengting closed his eyes and snorted, "I'll give him some compensation from the boss, isn't that what she wants? A short-sighted, stupid woman can teach her son to be as virtuous as her." As he spoke, he picked up a Putting a cigar under his nose, he took a deep breath intoxicated.

"The doctor wants you to smoke less." Noticing that Wen Zhengting was looking for matches on the top shelf of the drawer, the assistant pressed the hand full of age spots helplessly, "Boss Wen, just listen to me about this once."

Wen Zhengting stared at him for a long time, finally put down his cigar, and sighed leisurely, "If only you were my son, it would save a lot of trouble."

That's what I said, but he is a very traditional and conservative person after all, and he values ​​blood relationship more than anything else, not to mention the child who has no blood relationship with him, even Wen Fan, who is related to him, is difficult for him to easily cross. Get over that hurdle.

He has been watching the open and secret struggle between the two sons. The mediocre elder son has not been directly crushed to death by the ruthless younger son without his countless beatings.

The assistant didn't speak for a long time, and many complex emotions flashed across his face, including regret and sadness, and Wen Zhengting saw all these, "My mother also hopes that I am, but unfortunately, I don't have this blessing. But I have always regarded you as my biological father."

"Blessing. If only half of you, Wen Fan, that bastard can make me happy. He just does things too extreme and doesn't consider the consequences, so I don't feel relieved to hand over the Wen family to him."

Wen Zhengting showed a rare smile, "The end of next month will be your mother's memorial day. We will visit her when we come back from the United States, so it's settled."

"Mr. Wen has a heart, and my mother will be happy."

"It's not certain whether I can come back."

There was a glimmer of gloom on Wen Zhengting's face, and the assistant didn't seem to understand his hint, "Yes, I will. Mom will bless you in heaven."

"The discharge procedure has been completed."

When the bodyguard came in, Yi Huai was buttoning the last button. His fingers were slender and knuckles well-proportioned, and even such a small thing could be done pleasing to the eye.When he was a child, more than one person suggested him to play the piano, but his father, Yi Sheng, refused all of them. The reason was that boys don’t need to learn such sissy things. I never knew how I died.

The previous clothes were stained with blood and vomit and lost when they were delivered. Luo Yi remembered to bring him food but forgot to bring him his clothes. He had to ask the bodyguards to make a detour before coming. Luo family, just take two from his closet.

The result of taking it casually is a black shirt with trousers of the same color. This kind of outfit makes the person in the mirror look pale and his eyes lifeless.He bent the corner of his mouth, and that person also showed a tired and weary smile, like a ghost that had a physical body by accident.

"sorry to bother you."

In the morning, he had another examination. The doctor suggested that the observation time be extended to 48 hours, so as not to leave sequelae and affect his future life. The person who saw him was at the right time and place, and if such an opportunity was missed once, it would never happen again in the future.

Even a person like him has something to do, he touched his lips bitterly, and his heart skipped a beat.

No matter how much he wanted to keep him, the breath of that person had dissipated, leaving only a faint touch.

After the formalities were completed, Yi Huai checked and left the hospital with the bodyguards without leaving anything behind.

"Go home?" the bodyguard asked businessfully.

"Go to Yangyuan." Yi Huai shook his head, obviously having his own considerations, "I have something to confirm."

Maybe it was because of the elevator, but he was still a little dizzy after getting in the car.To be on the safe side, he took a painkiller prescribed by the doctor in advance with mineral water.He didn't stay idle while waiting for the effect of the medicine to come up, what Fei Chuan said to him before he fell asleep yesterday was in his mind.

Who was that old woman who wanted his life?Although Fei Chuan is usually outspoken and dares to say anything, there are actually not many people who make him hate it for this reason. Coupled with the restriction of women, there may be only one or two who meet the requirements.

How can it be?He almost laughed out loud, the answer was so ridiculous.Why did Luo Yi's mother kill him?Was it any good for her that he was dead?Is there something he doesn't know about it?

Everything is like a mess, and every time he thinks he has caught a little clue, it is just a illusory phantom, and the puzzle remains after the phantom dissipates.

"You can't drive in Yang Yuan, are you okay?"

Sleeping for such a long time is still somewhat useful, at least he feels much better than yesterday, and he won't have a headache and vomit after walking two more steps.

"No problem, I won't hold you back." Yi Huai said softly, "I know my own body well, and I won't make you lose your job."

"As long as you know."

This person was one of the bodyguards Luo Yi sent to him. He said it was to ensure his safety, but in fact it was to monitor him and not allow him to escape.

He had been quietly investigating these people since a long time ago, and his hard work paid off, and he really caught a lot of loopholes.He likes to gamble on such small issues as a rash showdown, so he has to wait for a suitable time, and this waited until a year ago, when this person's mother was diagnosed with cancer.A cancer patient is a bottomless pit. This person didn't have much savings, and when he urgently needed a large sum of money to save his life, Yi Huai, who had just returned from abroad, found him and made a deal with him without saying a word.

He helped this person contact foreign experts and sent his mother abroad for treatment, but he wanted to keep the secret for him, so the person had no choice but to agree.

From then on, as long as what he did was not too outrageous, this person would treat it as if he hadn't seen it.

"arrive."

The area around Yangyuan is full of dark alleys that cannot see the sun, one layer after another, twists and turns, like a complicated spider web, unless it is an acquaintance who has lived in it for a long time, no one knows that the next alley will lead to where.

Here is the cheapest rental house in Rongcheng, no legal documents are required, and a few hundred yuan can make do for a month, so even if there are fire hazards everywhere, countless people are willing to live here.

"It seems impossible not to get your shoes dirty."

The bodyguard parked the car on the side of the road, opened the umbrella and opened the door for Yi Huai.

"I don't mind."

Yi Huai knew what he meant.Because it was raining all the time, the sewage was flowing out from the garbage pile not far away. Those pampered young masters and young ladies would probably go crazy if they saw it, except for Yi Huai.Even if Luo Yi treats him well in terms of material conditions, he never regards himself as a young master who doesn't touch his fingers.In his heart, he has always been the young man who has been held for his life and has nothing. Letting down his vigilance means death.

Facing the shocked eyes of the bodyguard, Yi Huai smiled slightly, "I've lived in a worse place than this before, well, let's go, if you don't go back, it will be too late."

Went to the non-staple food store to buy a pack of cigarettes, and asked the little girl at the cash register how to get there. Yi Huai led the bodyguards to shuttle through the dirty alleys.

No. 329 Yangyuan, in the tube building that was blackened by oily smoke, Yi Huai went up to the third floor, and it was no surprise that the door of the sixth house from the left was wide open.

It has been almost 24 hours since he and Nie Xicheng were ambushed on the highway, and there are probably several groups of people searching for evidence and destroying corpses from all walks of life.

"There's no one in there."

The bodyguard probed in first, and then turned around to report to Yi Huai.

"Then go in."

A small living room with one bedroom and one living room. The living room is connected to the bathroom where it is difficult to turn around. When you enter the door, you can see the bedroom with a double-layer iron frame bed.Because they knew that the owner would not come back, the people who came before didn't even think about restoring the contents of the house, it was a mess everywhere, and Yi Huai stepped on four or five pieces of clothes with a foul-smelling takeaway lunch box after walking two steps .

He sighed, and prepared in his heart to return in vain, "Look outside, I'll look in the bedroom."

The bedroom seemed to have been hit by a tornado, everything in the cabinet was swept to the floor, the lower drawer looked like an open mouth, and even the trash can was turned over.Yi Huai bent down and used his mobile phone as a flashlight to shine on the underside of the bed and some crevices that were easily overlooked, to see if there were any fish that slipped through the net for him.

When he bent down to check the bottom of the bed for the second time, he noticed an unusual shadow near the foot of the bed against the wall, and hurriedly stretched the phone further in, and saw the edge of the kraft paper.

Realizing that this might be the evidence he was looking for, he hurriedly called the bodyguards in, instead of him who couldn't make such a large movement, he crawled under the bed and took out the thing.

It was a half-torn envelope, and judging from the way it was wrinkled, it should have contained a thick stack of things, such as cash.There is a line of small characters at the glued seam below. This discovery made Yi Huai hold his breath, and carefully unfolded it to look at it.

The words "Ocean Moving" clearly appeared in front of his eyes, and he realized that this was not an ordinary envelope bought outside, but a special printed matter circulated within the company.
