Death Progress Bar

Chapter 88 Selection

After picking up physical training, Shi Jin could no longer stick with Lian Jun all day long, and had to spare a few hours every day to go to Gua Yi and Gua Er to receive "serious beatings".

Probably the exercise affected his mood. After resuming training for a few days, Shi Jin was not in a high mood and slowly returned to normal. Although he would still be troubled by the progress bar and the plot, he would no longer be affected by the plot. too heavy.

Seeing him like this, Lian Jun finally felt a little more at ease in his hanging heart.

In the blink of an eye, the day of the dinner party came, Shi Jin bid farewell to Mr. Lian at five o'clock in the afternoon, went out with the company of Gua Yi and Gua Er, and drove towards the destination of the dinner party.

"The eating place has been cleared, so don't worry about safety." Gua Yi put down his phone to report the situation, seeing that Shi Jin was distracted, so he called him again.

When Shi Jin came back to his senses, he answered to show that he understood.

"What's wrong with you?" Gua Er looked at him in the rearview mirror and asked with concern.He had personally observed the conversation between Shi Jin and Xu Chuan, and he knew how uncomfortable this meal would be for Shi Jin today, so he was a little worried.

"It's okay, I'm just worried that Young Master Jun won't eat well at night." Shi Jin replied honestly, very distressed, "Uncle Long adjusted the diet for Young Master Jun again, Young Master Jun is not happy eating, and he has committed the problem of picky eaters again."

Hexagram [-]: "..."

An hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of an elegantly decorated restaurant.

This restaurant was ordered by Lianjun's help Shijin, and it was to destroy his own property. It has been cleared in advance to ensure safety.After Shi Jin and others got out of the car and entered the restaurant, the person in charge who had already been waiting at the door stepped forward and said to Shi Jin, "Shi Shao, there are already guests here. It is Mr. Shi Weichong, the president of Swiss Bank. minute."

Shi Jin was taken aback by the name of the person in charge, nodded a little uncomfortable, thanked him and then signaled him to continue to welcome guests here, then walked inside with Gua Yi and Gua Er.

After walking around the corner and making sure that the person in charge couldn't see the three of them, Shi Jin hurriedly turned to look at Gua Er and asked, "Why does he call me that? Isn't my code name in the organization Gua Si?" Code name, the people below will usually call him Mr. Shi, not Shi Shao.

It always feels a little weird to yell.

Gua Er raised his eyebrows, looked at him amusedly, and said, "Of course it is because everyone knows and confirms the relationship between you and Young Master Jun, so out of respect for you, I changed my address appropriately. It's nothing, you just get used to it."

Shi Jin had a confused face: "Everyone knows? How did you know?" The relationship between him and Lian Jun has never been announced publicly or within the organization. Only a few hexagrams and Uncle Long who follow Lian Jun closely know about it. It's a small secret.

"Have you forgotten the date you had with Young Master Jun a while ago? Clearing the movie theater and booking an amusement park, both of which are our own properties. You and Young Master Jun are acting so obviously, and everyone is not a fool. Please pay attention to it a little bit." So you know everything?" Gua Er said, with an expression of "Are you stupid".

Shi Jin didn't expect the truth to be like this. Thinking of the high profile of himself and Lian Jun when they were dating, he coughed in embarrassment, silently looked away, and pretended that this conversation had never happened.

The dining room is at the end of the corridor. When Shi entered, Shi Weichong was sitting in the rest area outside and drinking tea. He was still wearing a very elegant suit, as if he had just rushed over from some important occasion.

"Why are you here so early?" Shi Jin greeted casually, and sat opposite Shi Weichong.

When Shi Weichong saw him coming in, he quickly put down his teacup, and replied: "The work ended earlier than expected, so I came here a little earlier. Xiaojin, why did you remember that we are going to have a dinner together? Did something good happen?"

He has a gentle attitude and takes the initiative to pass on the topic, and his intention to ease the relationship is very obvious.

Shi Jin saw his expression and thought of Xu Jie's actions. His mood was a bit complicated, but he didn't want to do anything to vent his anger, so he replied: "It's a good thing. I'll notify you. I'm going to go through the school admission formalities at the beginning of next month, I was too rude to leave on my third brother's birthday last time, so I want to invite everyone out to get together before the holiday is over."

"So that's the case. It seems that our family will soon have a policeman, which is good." Shi Weichong's brows and eyes were relieved, and he was really happy for Shi Jin.Compared with being a gangster, obviously going to a formal police academy, it is more reassuring to be a policeman who eats public food in the future.

When Shi Jin saw him like this, he felt a little uncomfortable.His current behavior can be said to be using Shi Weichong to stimulate Xu Jie. Shi Weichong treats him so sincerely, and he feels more uneasy.

Xiaosheng called him worriedly: "Come in..."

"I'm fine." Shi Jin came back to his senses, replied to Xiao Shi in his heart, then leaned over to pour a cup of tea for Shi Weichong, and chatted about other topics.

Shi Weichong originally thought that it would be difficult for him to have the opportunity to sit and chat with Shi Jin so peacefully after the last bad breakup, but seeing Shi Jin take the initiative to deliver a message, the joy and relaxation on his face Unable to hold back, they continued to chat along the topic of the times in a very cooperative manner.

After chatting for a while, Xiang Aoting arrived.He obviously came here in a hurry, and he was still wearing a training suit. After he came, he was afraid that his body would be too dirty, which would affect the appetite of Shi Jin and the others, so he deliberately took a change of clothes to the bathroom to scrub, and came out after changing into clean clothes.

When he came out, it was almost time for dinner, Shi Jin led the two of them to the inner room, ordered food, and called Li Jiuzheng who hadn't arrived yet, asking where he was.Li Jiuzheng had just parked the car at the entrance of the hotel, when he heard the words, he replied immediately, and then hung up the phone.

Five minutes later, Li Jiuzheng also entered the box, and when Shi Jin saw that everyone had arrived, he was about to ring the bell for the kitchen to start serving food, when the door of the box opened again.

"What hotel did you book? It's so far from the airport, and the traffic jam is annoying." Rong Zhouzhong strode in with a hat and mask on his face, sat down next to Shi Jin, and pushed him, "Here I want a glass of water, I'm thirsty."

Shi Jin was startled and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I happen to be free, can't I come?" Rong Zhouzhong had a ferocious expression, his face was haggard, the dark circles under his eyes looked like he had painted smoky makeup, he didn't know how long he hadn't slept, and his clothes were also crumpled , the style looks very trendy, but it has a strong scent of men's perfume.

Shi Jin wrinkled his nose in distaste.

Seeing this, Rong Zhouzhong's eyebrows twitched, he stretched out his hands to pinch his shoulders angrily, and shook him vigorously: "Don't show such an expression! This smell is left over from shooting commercials. I usually don't spray myself like a mobile poison dispenser. Does it smell bad? Does it smell bad!"

Rong Zhouzhong, who was deprived of sleep, obviously had a worse temper and became more childish.

Shi Jin was dazzled by the shaking, he quickly stretched out his hand to hold his arm, and replied: "It's not bad, it's not bad, the smell is better, it's appetizing."

Rong Zhouzhong became even angrier when he heard this, and stretched out his hand to pull his face, with a vicious tone: "Appetizer? You actually said that this brand of perfume is appetizing? What kind of appetizer do you want? This is the perfume of the passion series. What kind of appetizer do you want?"

Shi Jin couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed the pre-dinner dessert on the table and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

The world was quiet, Rong Zhouzhong was biting a soft dessert, staring straight at Shi Jin, his beautiful peach eyes forced out a sinister arc, and stretched out his claws towards Shi Jin.

"Fourth brother!" Shi Jin called for help while ducking down.

Xiang Aoting hastily stretched out his hand to hold Rong Zhouzhong's shoulder and pulled him back, and said helplessly, "Third brother, you scared Xiao Jin."

Rong Zhouzhong's expression twisted and turned, and finally calmed down reluctantly. He shook Xiang Ao Ting's hand, ate the dessert in two or three bites, straightened his collar and said, "This little bastard's skin is thicker than a pangolin. Scared... eat, I'm hungry!"

Shi Jin took the opportunity to sit up straight, looked around Shi Weichong and Li Jiuzheng who were barely in the safe zone, got up decisively, sat down next to Li Jiuzheng, and rang the bell to let the waiter serve the food.

The brothers glanced at his changed seat, Shi Weichong lowered his head and turned the cup around, Rong Zhouzhong snorted coldly, and acted as a peacemaker to Ao Ting, while Li Jiuzheng helped Shi Jin move the tableware over.

……

The dishes were served one after another, and everyone started chatting while eating, and the atmosphere was actually quite good.

Shi Jin led everyone to chat about a mess of topics, silently observed Shi Weichong's side, and found that when the dinner was about halfway through, Shi Weichong began to look down at his phone frequently.

"Is there a job looking for you?" He looked at Shi Weichong and asked knowingly.

When Shi Weichong saw him asking, he hurriedly put the phone down, shook his head and replied, "No, a friend came looking for me, and I'm fine now, what did I say just now?"

"Should I take the civil servant exam in city B after graduating from the police academy, and stay in city B as a policeman?" Shi Jin replied, calculating that the time should be almost up, so he changed the topic according to the plan, and said, "Let's not talk about it for now. Regarding the matter of staying in City B, the police academy will take four years, so it’s not too late to think about it after two years. In fact, I asked you out today because I have another matter I want to talk to you about.”

Rong Zhouzhong, who was bored and yawned after listening to the students, and Li Jiuzheng, who was concentrating on eating, all paused when they heard the words. They raised their eyes to look at Shi Jin with clarity in their eyes - they knew that Shi Jin would not be because of something " The notice is here." Such a trivial matter called everyone out for dinner, and the point finally came.

Shi Weichong and Xiang Aoting were stunned for a moment, then Qiqi recalled the last time the dinner party broke up unhappy, and frowned, thinking that Shi Jin wanted to bring up the old matter again, looked at Shi Jin, hesitant to speak .

"I'm not going to talk about the last dinner." Shi Jin first interrupted Shi Weichong and Xiang Aoting's wild thoughts that were almost on their faces, sideways took out the tablet from the backpack, and made a video call to Fei Yujing , while saying, "I'm going to talk about something else, something that concerns us all."

When everyone saw his actions, they were puzzled - what is the matter related to everyone?Could it be Ruixing?

It took Fei Yujing a while to answer the video call. He had obviously just finished a day's work, and his face looked a little tired.After connecting to the video, he saw a few people forming a table opposite the video, and said with a frown, "You eat it as soon as you eat it, and you want to show it to me?"

"You can watch us eat if you want, but before you watch, I have a few words to say, you can listen to it." Shi Jin replied while setting up the tablet, and glanced at the crowd, waiting for everyone's eyes to focus on him After putting on the body, he said word by word, "At the end of June, I went to Province M and met Xu Chuan."

Hearing Xu Chuan's name, Shi Weichong and Fei Yujing's expressions immediately turned serious, Xiang Aoting also frowned, and asked, "Xiao Jin, what are you going to see him for?"

"Let's not talk about the reason why I went to see him now, I'll play a recording for you first." Shi Jin replied, took out his phone again, and played the audio that was intercepted in advance.

[But Shi Xingrui was actually more sensible than I thought. He didn't rush to find that woman, but started to investigate her situation. He didn't 'encounter' with her until he was fully prepared, and made a deal with her .He wanted the woman to have a child, and it had to be a son. 】

Xu Chuan's voice spread out in the box, the word "deal" was extremely harsh, everyone's expressions changed, and Xiang Aoting couldn't help standing up.

The woman Xu Chuan mentioned in this recording obviously refers to the mothers of several of them present, but whose mother is this "she", and who...is the product of the transaction?

Shi Jin paused the recording, turned his head to look at Li Jiuzheng, who was beside him with a blank expression, and said, "I went to check. There is no transaction between your mother and father. She was simply deceived by her father."

"I, I'll just say..." Li Jiuzheng's froze body slowly relaxed, pulled the corners of his mouth, and suddenly lowered his head and pressed his face, not wanting his expression to be seen by others.

When everyone heard that Shi Jin confirmed the "deal" speculation from this side, their expressions became even uglier.

Fei Yujing's voice came from the opposite side of the video, asking the main point: "Who is the woman Xu Chuan mentioned?"

Shi Jin looked at the screen and replied, "It's your mother, but your mother is not the only one who has made deals with your father."

What he said was almost telling everyone bluntly that, except for Li Jiuzheng, everyone was "bought" by Shi Xingrui.This fact is tantamount to directly negating the biggest basis that everyone used to hate Shi Jin. If Shi Xingrui did not owe their mother emotionally, and never treated them as sons, then what stand do they have to say? Because of this so-called "abandonment", to resent innocent people.

To put it more cruelly, how to treat purchased "commodities" seems to be the buyer's freedom, and "commodities" are not qualified to express their opinions.

There was a deathly silence in the air, and in the end it was Rong Zhouzhong who was the first to digest the information, and said: "Shi Jin, so what if it's a deal, that old thing is dead, everyone can finally sit together peacefully and settle accounts You can apologize if you want, so why bother digging up those past things, it's just annoyance."

Shi Jin didn't speak, and played the next recording directly.

[I want to know who was behind the scenes who ordered you to buy the fierce werewolf. Don't tell me it's Xu Tianhua, I don't believe it. 】

【Not Xu Tianhua. 】

The recording was very short and finished in a few seconds, but everyone fell silent again.

"That's why I went to talk to Xu Chuan. I suspect that the person who wanted to harm me was not Xu Tianhua." Shi Jin put down his phone, glanced at everyone, and said, "This is the answer Xu Chuan gave me. He wanted to harm me." The person is indeed not Xu Tianhua. So it's not that I want to dig up these things in the past, but I have to dig up these things in the past clearly and clearly to find out who wants to harm me in order to save my life."

Xiang Aoting's attention was immediately drawn back, and he frowned and said, "It wasn't Xu Tianhua who wanted to harm you, who could it be? The other shareholders of Ruixing? Or father's former enemy?"

Rong Zhouzhong's expression moved, and he suddenly snorted coldly, and said, "Fourth, are you stupid for doing the task? The little bastard asked us out for dinner today, and told us specially. Who is he suspecting in his heart? Isn't it Are you clear? Shi Jin, let me say it again, my mother and I are indeed not good people. I also believe that my mother can do things like having children in exchange for resources, but we are not bored enough to do anything. After you have it, you will destroy your life and kill you. You can settle accounts with me, but you can’t suspect that I will kill you. If you dare to wrong me, I will post all your ugly photos on Weibo. Unilaterally announcing that you have made your debut will annoy you and that Lianjun to death!"

As expected of Rong Zhouzhong, this threat is so ruthless.

Shi Jin's serious face was almost tense, he glanced at him and didn't speak.

"It's not me." Li Jiuzheng also answered, looked sideways at Shi Jin, probably because his emotions hadn't adjusted well, so his eyes were strangely gentle, and said, "My mother is dead, she won't harm you , I will not do stupid things anymore, but you are very like my mother, I like you..."

The hair on Shi Jin's back stood up, silently grabbed the chair and moved to the side, smiled dryly, and replied: "F-farewell, we are brothers..."

"The eyes of..." Li Jiuzheng finished speaking after panting, and then smiled like a holy father.

Shi Jin: "..."

Although you have a nice smile, the way you speak is scary, okay?

"...Actually, your eyes are prettier." Shi Jin quickly turned his head to avoid Li Jiuzheng's gaze, thinking that choosing to sit next to him seemed to be a huge mistake, and then glanced at the other people on the table, not wanting to play tricks on the atmosphere , said directly, "In fact, Xu Chuan has already told me who the person who really wants to harm me is, but considering that Xu Chuan lied once before, so in order to avoid being provoked by him, I specially called you out."

Xiang Aoting frowned and glanced at Shi Weichong who lowered his head with an unclear expression, and asked, "Xiao Jin, what do you want to do?"

"I want to give you a chance to know all the truth." Shi Jin glanced at the crowd and tapped his phone, "The recording I just showed you is just some excerpts, I still have the full version in my hand, if you want to listen, I can send them all to you. In addition, in addition to the recordings, I still have a lot of investigation materials about the Shi family and his father. You feel happy. Also, I told you this, and I took the risk. After reading the information, I hope you will tell me the position you choose. If you don’t take the initiative to come and explain, then I will acquiesce in the relationship between us. This is the end of the brotherhood, see you later on the game field."

He didn't leave any room for what he said, and everyone's expressions were solemn.Those present are all smart people, Shi Jin said that for this sake, if they don't understand, they are really fools.Shi Jin is forcing everyone to take sides, and it is also giving the person who is really related to the mastermind behind the scenes a chance to choose a side.

"Of course, you can also choose not to record the recordings and materials. The so-called ignorance is not guilty. When I catch the mastermind behind the scenes, I will never play tricks. But at the same time, I will no longer recognize the people around the murderer as brothers. Everyone in the future Well water does not interfere with river water, just be a stranger." Shi Jin gave his attitude, then raised three fingers, and said, "Three days, I will give you three days to think about it, whether you want to know the truth or not is up to you to choose." After the materials are sent out, there are still three days. After three days, I want to know the positions you choose after reading the materials so that I can decide my next move."

Three choices: take information, choose to stand at Shijin; take materials, choose to oppose Shijin; don't take materials, don't have to choose a position, but in the future you can only be strangers with Shijin.

Shi Jin spread out all the things, and put the initiative in deciding how the relationship between everyone will be in their hands. He was magnanimous to the extreme and cruel to the extreme.

For those who believe in themselves and their mothers, this choice is not difficult. After all, they don't need to fight against Shi Jin, just watch the show, but for those who are related to the mastermind behind the scenes, this choice is very difficult.

——Take the information and enter a dilemma, or not take the information and be a fool, waiting for a result that may hurt both sides.

Fei Yujing was the first to break the silence and said, "Shi Jin, send me a copy of all the materials in your hand."

"Send me a copy too." Rong Zhouzhong followed suit, frowning, a little irritable, "You guys are really troublesome."

"Me too." Li Jiuzheng stated his position aloud.

Xiang Aoting hesitated for a moment, glanced at Shi Weichong, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't answer the call immediately, and decided to contact Shijin in private later.

Shi Weichong didn't make a statement either, he lowered his head, put his hands in his pockets, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Shi Jin responded to the words of the other people, and then said: "I will send you the information one by one after returning to the clubhouse, let's eat first, the food is cold."

Who has the appetite to eat now.

Everyone's voices were surprisingly unanimous, and they actually had a little guess in their hearts who Shi Jin really wanted to force him to take a stand today. During the last dinner, his attitude was already obvious enough.

……

A meal started lively and ended quietly.

Rong Zhou had a job, so he was the first to leave after dinner.Li Jiuzheng was second, and before he left, he packed a box of snacks that Shi Jin had stuffed for Rong Zhouzhong.Xiang Aoting and Shi Weichong stayed until the end, and the three of them left the hotel together.

"Ao Ting, let's go first, be careful when you go out on missions, don't get hurt." Shi Weichong reluctantly lifted his spirits and told Xiang Ao Ting.

Xiang Aoting looked back and forth between him and Shi Jin, hesitated for a moment, and said, "We are always brothers." After speaking, he wisely left space for the two of them, turned around, got in the car and left.

Only Shi Weichong and Shi Jin were left at the door. Shi Weichong held the mobile phone in his pocket, looked sideways at Shi Jin, and said the first sentence since Shi Jin played Xu Chuan's recording, with a hesitant tone : "Xu Chuan said that the person who wanted to harm you was not Xu Tianhua, so could it be..."

"Brother." Shi Jin interrupted him, looked at him very seriously, and said, "I believe that during the time when you 'used' me in the past, you also had a time when you really regarded me as your younger brother...you seriously Think about it, I'll wait for your call." After speaking, he took the initiative to hug him, backed away, got into his car, and endured without looking back.
