Death Progress Bar

Shi Jin found that his and Lian Jun's progress bars began to increase, Lian Jun's increase was faster, and his was a little slower.He felt a little flustered, and hurriedly urged Lian Jun to arrange his own retreat as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, I'll leave after you go to school." Lian Jun comforted him, raised his hand and touched his face, "Gua Yi and Gua Er haven't confirmed their safety yet, and Aunt Lu hasn't escaped from the situation yet. , I can't go now."

"Then at least don't stay in City B anymore, go abroad, you can still keep an eye on the situation remotely, it's too dangerous here." Shi Jin was still worried.

Lian Jun shook his head and said: "I can't move, once I move, Zhang Zhuoyuan will move, wait a little longer."

Shi Jin frowned, and his emotions were a little broken: "This is not okay, and that is not okay...why do you have to kill them all like this..." He raised his hand to press his forehead, anxious and painful.

Lianjun hugged him distressedly, slowly followed his back, looked out the window at the clouded sky, and said: "Because the government doesn't need a 'helper' like me, and in the new history, I must not be left behind." For them, my name is a stain, a hidden danger, and an existence that must be erased. Don't worry, I will be fine."

Shi Jin hugged him tightly, unable to speak.

……

Lu Shan really went to negotiate with Mr. Lian with great fanfare.The result can be imagined, Lian Jun is not willing to talk to her.Lu Shan told Meng Qing and the others about this, with an attitude of "I've tried my best, but I can't do anything if the other party refuses to pick up the fight".Meng Qing and the others frowned, and finally Qi Yun stood up and gave a suggestion, asking Lu Shan to go to Zhang Zhuoyuan as an intermediary and contact Lianjun.Lu Shan gave him a sneering look, and agreed with a sneer.

That night, Lu Shan called Zhang Zhuoyuan, hoping that Zhang Zhuoyuan could help her contact Lian Jun and act as a broker in the middle of the negotiation. She also explained a little bit about the frequent exchange of fire between major organizations in China, saying that this kind of chaos is very serious. It will be over soon, so Zhang Zhuoyuan was appeased.

Zhang Zhuoyuan pretended to have an official conversation with her, then turned around and called Lian Jun, asking: "You don't really want to negotiate peace with Lu Shan, do you? You should understand that the current situation You are not allowed to make peace."

This is so close to letting Lian Jun go and die with Meng Qing and others.When Shi Jin heard it, he wanted to curse.

Lian Jun patted him reassuringly, and was not offended by Zhang Zhuoyuan's words, and asked calmly: "In most of the strongholds in the country now, the people staying there are all official people, I'm equivalent to giving you the whole family. Are you asking me this now to insult me?"

Zhang Zhuoyuan choked, and said cheekily: "But you still have a bunch of hidden clues that you haven't told me..."

"You don't need to know about those. That's the trump card I used to end up with Meridian Gate and other organizations. Director Zhang, you don't want the domestic violent organization fight to become a protracted war, then the domestic economy will definitely be greatly damaged. Or, You already have other plans?" Lian Jun asked slowly, his tone could be described as kind.

Zhang Zhuoyuan was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Of course I don't have any plans, I just hope that you can say hello to me in advance before doing anything, so that I can be mentally prepared."

"Then tell you."

Zhang Zhuoyuan was stunned: "What?"

"In the alliance of the four major organizations, it is not Lu Shan who is really sent to negotiate with me. Lu Shan is just the cannon fodder they put out to make me vent my anger. The one who really wants to negotiate with me is Meng Qing from Meridian Gate. He has sent someone to I delivered the message just after Lushan told you in a high-profile manner that she wanted to negotiate with me."

Zhang Zhuoyuan frowned, realized something was wrong, and asked, "What do Meng Qing and the others want to do?"

Lianjun's tone was still calm, and he replied: "I can probably guess a little about Meng Qing's plan. He may have two plans. One is to simply send Lu Shan out to vent my anger. Maybe other good terms will lull me and let me stop; the other is to tell everyone that Lu Shan has come to negotiate with me, and then find a chance to kill Lu Shan, put the blame on me, and use the malicious competition clause you posted Forcing you to suppress me and give them a chance to breathe. Judging from the current situation, I am more inclined to the latter speculation, so Director Zhang, stop focusing on me. If Lu Shan is really dead , the final death is coming, let's tidy up the manpower."

The more Zhang Zhuoyuan listened to his analysis, the more frightened he became. He didn't care to talk to him anymore, and hung up the phone after saying something to contact him again.

Lian Jun also hung up the phone, Shi Jin immediately approached him, frowning.

"In this way, Aunt Lu will be free." Lian Jun looked at him with a slight hook on his mouth.

Shi Jin stretched out his arms to hug him, and rubbed the back of his head with a straight face.

……

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Shan returned to Province G from her hiding place. After she was going to settle down, she went to Zhang Zhuoyuan and asked him to arrange a meeting with Lian Jun.That night, the assassins sent by Meng Qing locked Lu Shan's location.

When everything was ready, Meng Qing called Lian Jun.

Lian Jun directly refused.

"He refused." Meng Qing put down the phone, looked at Qi Yun on the other side of the video call, and said, "Mr. Lian is really determined to fight us. He refused to accept all the olive branches that Lu Shan and I handed over. Shan can only do it."

Qi Yun recovered from his contemplation, and said after hearing the words: "Then let's do it, arrange the assassins, don't set the blame for failure, but set yourself on fire."

"Don't worry, all the people I sent are good players." Meng Qing was very confident, and asked again, "What are your plans when this wave passes?"

Qi Yun thought for a while, shook his head, and said: "I said before, no matter what the appearance is, the officials must be secretly helping Mie. This time, even if we kill Lu Shan and let Mie take the blame, the officials will not It will definitely be destroyed, and most of them will only do some superficial efforts to deal with us. There is not much breathing time we can buy, so we must make plans early."

Meng Qing frowned and asked, "Is the situation really so bad?"

"No, it will only be worse than what we have seen now." Qi Yun's face was a little depressed, "Lao Meng, prepare for the golden cicada to escape, now it is not a question of whether we can destroy it, but the official will not let it go. It’s about our chances to clean up this time. The official attitude is too obvious, and we probably won’t be able to get through this wave of catastrophe.”

Meng Qing's expression changed, and he said, "But didn't you still—"

"A few days ago, it was because of Yuan Peng's presence." Qi Yun looked at him and had to speak more bluntly, "Yuan Peng has no brains, don't give him the illusion that we may still struggle, he guesses I will be the first one to tear up with Mie regardless. We need time now... In short, you try to arrange it as much as possible. The official has not allowed any large organization to continue to exist. We can only hide it first, and wait for this storm to pass. Use another shell to find another future."

Meng Qing was silent, finally gritted her teeth and said, "I understand."

……

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Shan left Province G for City B, planning to have an interview with Zhang Zhuoyuan.That night, she landed in City B and checked into a hotel under the name of Tarantula.

In the middle of the night, someone who seemed to be dead appeared in Tarantula's hotel and asked to contact Lu Shan to discuss negotiations.The next day, when Zhang Zhuoyuan took people to the hotel where Lu Shan lived, and was about to have a good talk with Lu Shan, he found that the fire was burning there, the smoke was billowing, and Lu Shan's room had already been engulfed in a sea of ​​flames.

Zhang Zhuoyuan was shocked and hurriedly called Lianjun.

"It should be Meng Qing who made the move, so you should do it too." Lian Jun said on the phone, as if he had expected today's result, "Director Zhang, you can do whatever you want."

Looking at the hotel surrounded by fire trucks in front of him, Zhang Zhuoyuan suddenly felt an unreal feeling that his dream was about to come true. He tightened his hands on the phone and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lian."

……

Lu Shan died, the wolf spiders had no leader, and the internal chaos became a mess.Yuan Peng took the opportunity, with the help of Meng Qing and Qi Yun, to forcefully settle in Province G and Treasure Island, and as an ally, swallowed up the Tarantula's business.

On the other hand, after Lu Shan's death, Meng Qing and Qi Yun sued Mie to Zhang Zhuoyuan for the reason of malicious competition and killing Lu Shan, asking the authorities to give Mie a card and punish him.Zhang Zhuoyuan was terrified and angry on the surface, pretending to thoroughly investigate this matter and deal with Mie severely, but secretly he had already mobilized the official army disguised as members of Mie's various branches, and was ready to clean up the afternoon under the banner of Mie. Men, Chiba, and Snake Fang's preparations.

In the dark, where no one knows, Meng Qing and Qi Yun are secretly dividing and counting their own strength behind Yuan Peng's back, and urgently forging a way out.

The situation is on the verge of breaking out, and then, the New Year is over.

……

After Lian Jun took this month's medicine, he said to Uncle Long who was tidying up the medicine box, "Let's go."

Uncle Long stopped packing his things and looked at him with a frown.

"Go with Dr. Li to Rongcheng, where someone will pick you up and send you abroad." Lian Jun suppressed the nausea and vomiting after taking the medicine, got up and came to the desk, took out a file bag, and handed it to Uncle Long , "Well, your new identity, there are three choices in total, you choose one yourself. Uncle Long, I have worked hard for you for so many years."

Uncle Long stood up straight, looked at the file bag, but didn't take it.

"Let's go." Lian Jun handed the file bag in front of him again, and called out in a louder voice, "Uncle Long."

Uncle Long said with a straight face, "The monthly medicine..."

"Don't worry, it's just a needle in the arm, I will do it myself, and there are not many needles left."

Uncle Long took another look at Shi Jin who was sitting silently on the side with his head bowed. He clenched his palms, took the document bag, bent over to lift the medicine box, strode to the door and opened it, and then stopped after stepping out. Without looking back, he said: "Don't let me send a white-haired person to a black-haired person." After speaking, he closed the study door.

Li Jiuzheng was waiting at the door of the small building with a suitcase. Seeing Uncle Long coming out, he bent down to lift the suitcase, then took two steps back and looked up at the window of the study.

Shi Jin just happened to walk to the window, he forced out a smile when he saw this, and waved to Li Jiuzheng.

Li Jiuzheng also waved at him.

Uncle Long stopped after walking out of the small building, and turned his head to look this way, then quickly looked away, without saying or doing anything, first Li Jiuzheng walked towards the outside in one stride.Li Jiuzheng was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed, looking back towards the window as he walked, looking very reluctant.

The figures of the two disappeared at the end of the road, Shi Jin put down his raised hand, his eyes were dazed, without any expression.

They are all gone, only him and Lianjun are left.

Lian Jun hugged him from behind, kissed his ear, and said, "I'll arrange someone else to pick you up when you return to school in a few days."

Shi Jin held his hand and asked, "When are you leaving?"

"Soon." Lian Jun replied, resting his chin on his shoulder, "When everyone is safe."

……

Before the arrival of the peak period of returning to school in major colleges and universities, intensive firepower conflicts broke out among major organizations.Mie's branches all over the country became agitated without warning, like bloodthirsty beasts that had been hungry for a long time, and rushed towards the strongholds of other large organizations.Snake Fang counterattacked immediately, Wumen and Qianye followed suit.

The situation in the provinces was in constant turmoil, news of violent organizations fighting each other was frequent, people in the whole country were in panic, ordinary people's resentment towards violent organizations slowly piled up, and gradually ignited to the peak, and the calls for official intervention became louder and louder.

Then one day, all the dark lines buried in the provinces where the headquarters of the major organizations are located by Mr. Lian were suddenly mobilized, and most of the middle and high-level personnel in Wumen, Qianye, and Snake Ya were assassinated overnight in a life-for-life way.

The counterattacks of Sheya, Wumen, and Qianye immediately weakened, and their failures began to show.

Zhang Zhuoyuan was shocked, and only then did he know what Lian Jun was hiding - Lian Jun actually held such a team dedicated to assassination, and Lian Jun had already planted nails in the various organizations. Find out their personnel distribution!

When did it start?These dark lines, as well as Mr. Lian's investigation of the middle and high-level personnel of various organizations, when did these start?How long has the assassination plan been going on?

Meng Qing and Qi Yun were also shocked. Their carefully crafted back road is about to be completed. In a week at most, they will be able to push Snake Fang out as cannon fodder, and then secretly take Wumen and Qianye The elite escaped, but because of this wave of assassinations, their plan directly collapsed.

"Impossible!" Meng Qing lost control and yelled loudly, "I just contacted them yesterday and confirmed their safety. How could it be - no, impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

After being dazed, Qi Yun suddenly relaxed and leaned against the back of the chair, and said in a hoarse voice, "Run away."

Meng Qing's expression twisted: "What did you say?"

"Give up everything, run away, there is no way out."

Meng Qing didn't understand, nor was she reconciled: "What nonsense are you talking about! How can there be no future? Even if we can't take away the elite, as long as we still have those small organizations secretly cultivated and have the assets transferred in advance, we can start from scratch. Come again!"

"I can't come anymore." Qi Yun raised his hand and pressed his forehead, his tone was dull and lifeless, "Meng Qing, stop being so stupid, don't you understand, Zhang Zhuoyuan and Lian Jun don't just want to touch big organizations like us, There is also the whole underworld... You have doubted it too, the members of the domestic extermination branch are too well-trained in action, more like an official team, and those public opinions... Listen to the voices of the people outside, there is no future, This gray world we are staying in has been completely broken in the hands of Mr. Lian, and the cleansing is coming."

Meng Qing didn't want to hear what Qi Yun said, and Yuan Peng just called, so he simply hung up Qi Yun's call, stretched out his hands to support the table, and said with a distorted expression: "There is no way out, it's ridiculous...as long as I Meng Qing is still here! There are retreats everywhere!"

……

Wumen and Snake Ya started to counterattack frantically, like the last struggle before death, while Qianye slowly calmed down, looking desperately waiting for the end.

Everything was going according to plan, but Zhang Zhuoyuan suddenly didn't dare to contact Lian Jun, but it was useless for him to hide, Lian Jun took the initiative to contact him with an unfamiliar number one morning.

"Hexagram [-], Hexagram [-], Hexagram [-], and Hexagram [-], a total of four people died in the assassination operations against the middle and high-level leaders of Wumen, Qianye, Snakeya, and Tarantula." Lian Jun cut to the point, calmly The voice made Zhang Zhuoyuan shudder, "I have given everything I have, and there is only one request in the end, don't move forward." After speaking, he hung up the phone.

Zhang Zhuoyuan slowly put down the phone, and after a long time, he suddenly took a deep breath and stood up straight, called for his assistant, and ordered: "Preparing to issue documents, Mie, Wumen, Qianye, Snakeya, and Tarantula are for their own self-interest, regardless of international and domestic interests. The situation, disregarding the safety of the people, caused large-scale firepower conflicts, caused immeasurable economic losses, and seriously violated the treaty on the restraint of legal violent organizations. From today onwards, all cards will be removed and the process of clearing up will be issued. An internal arrest warrant will be issued to arrest the leaders of the above organizations with all their strength , in case of resistance... shoot and kill on the spot."

The assistant was shocked by the amount of information in his words, and didn't reply for a long time.

"Hurry up!" Zhang Zhuoyuan suddenly broke out, turning his head and yelling at him.

The assistant trembled in fright, and finally came back to his senses, hurriedly responded, turned around and walked out of the office with his left foot and right foot.

After he left, Zhang Zhuoyuan slumped down and sat on the office chair. After a while, he took out his mobile phone and called Liu Zhenjun, saying, "We are going to finish the work. Send someone to XX Resort...to arrest Mr. Lian."

……

The day before Shi Jin returned to school, Lian Jun followed Shi Jin's example and built a fire at the entrance of the small building, then lifted the small safe in the study room, took out the materials inside and started burning it.Shi Jin moved out a small horse and sat by the fire, watching Lian Jun burn the things in the safe, while sending text messages to Fei Yujing and Xiang Aoting.

One after another, the contents of the safe burned quickly.

Lian Jun threw the safe aside, took out several tablets and mobile phones, formatted the contents one by one, then took a hammer, smashed them, pulled out the battery, and threw the other parts into the fire.

Shi Jin felt a toothache when he saw it, and muttered, "What a waste."

"Well, it's not good to waste it." Lian Jun smiled at him, and then took out his mobile phone.

Shi Jin paused when he was sending text messages, and looked up at him.

"You can't leave any traces." Lian Jun said so, turned on the phone screen, looked at the photo of himself and Shi Jin on the desktop, paused for a while, and chose to restore the phone to factory settings, then smashed it and pulled it out. The battery was thrown into the fire.

Hey.

A text message came in, Shi Jin looked down at his phone.

Lian Jun stood up and came to him.

Shi Jin froze, raised his eyes to look at him, held up his mobile phone, and asked, "Do you want to smash this one too?"

"It must be cleaned up completely, and this is for your own good." Lian Jun touched his head, bent down to touch his forehead, and said in a gentle voice, "If you don't want to, I can help you."

"No need." Shi Jin lowered his eyes and stroked the back of the phone, "Wait a minute, I'll tell my brothers so I won't worry if they can't get in touch."

Lian Jun said hello and backed away.

Shi Jin sent a group message to his brothers notifying him of changing contact information, then returned to the desktop of the mobile phone, opened the photo album, clicked on the photos of himself and Lian Jun in it, looked at them one by one, and then dug out the photos of Gua Yi and others to look carefully After a while, finally, he was reluctant to give up, chose to delete all photos, restored the phone to factory settings, and handed it to Lian Jun.

Lian Jun took it, squatted back to the fire, and picked up the hammer.

Bang bang bang.

The mobile phone was shattered and thrown into the flames as well.

Shi Jin looked at the flames, tightened Kong Luoluo's palm, and asked, "Today or tomorrow?"

Lian Jun looked at him across the fire, and replied: "Tomorrow morning, I want to watch the sunrise alone."

Shi Jin's heart skipped a beat, and he understood what he meant.

This day's dinner, Lian Jun insisted on making it himself.In fact, he doesn't know how to cook at all, and the dishes he makes according to the tutorials on the Internet are either salty or burnt.He was embarrassed and wanted to throw away the dishes, but Shi Jin insisted on serving them on the table.

The two sat down, Shi Jin picked up a piece of burnt scrambled egg and fed it into his mouth, tasted it carefully, and said, "Hmm... There is a lot of room for improvement."

Lianjun smiled, poured him a glass of water, and said, "I thought you would praise me against your conscience."

"I'm not such a dishonest person." Shi Jin took a sip of water, poked the rice in the bowl with lowered eyes, and said, "Next time... I have to see your progress." So there must be a next time .

Lian Jun tightened his fingers, got up and leaned over to kiss his brow, suppressing his reluctance in his heart.

After dinner, the two went to the mountain spring pool to take a bath together, and then got entangled with each other tacitly.

……

When the sky turned pale, Shi Jin noticed that Lian Jun got up.He didn't move, his eyes were still closed, and he pretended to be asleep.

Half an hour later, Lian Jun finished washing, came to the bed, bent down and kissed his forehead, and whispered, "I'm going to climb the mountain."

Shi Jin still closed his eyes and didn't move.

"I've packed your luggage for you back to school. The person who will pick you up will arrive around nine o'clock. He will bring you breakfast. You can sleep a little longer."

Shi Jin still didn't move.

"After reaching the top of the mountain, I will call Zhang Zhuoyuan and tell him the news of their deaths. About half an hour later, he or Liu Zhenjun will bring people here to arrest me. Don't be afraid, don't run away , the people who come to pick you up will protect your safety and make you the hero who contributed the most in this campaign."

Shi Jin couldn't help tightening his hands under the quilt.

"I love you."

Footsteps sounded, and then the door opened and closed.

Shi Jin opened his eyes in a flash, the room was empty, he sat up and looked towards the door.

"Come in, go and say goodbye to the baby." Xiao Shi couldn't help but said.

"It's not like he won't come back, there's nothing to say goodbye to." Shi Jin lay back on the bed with a blank expression, wrapping himself tightly with the quilt, "Don't disturb me, I want to go back to sleep."
