Chapter 117 Giant Wood Club

Chapter 117 Giant Wood Club
Xue Bing thought of the gossip Qi Bai had told her. Although Li Qin was the pearl of the Li family, Cui Jian had a very good attitude. He didn't care about family status, whether it was a pearl or a fat pig. He was a very special person, so it was reasonable for his sister to like him.

Bai Qi was quite impressed by Cui Jian's performance on the road, so Xue Bing had the idea of ​​recruiting Cui Jian. Duanmu also showed the idea of ​​recruiting Cui Jian, so Xue Bing pressed him to see where Cui Jian's bottom line was. But he didn't expect Cui Jian to have such a strong personality and was not interested in playing along with him. This is the temperament of a superior.

In other words, Cui Jian does not think Xue Bing is higher than him. His understanding is out of line with the public's understanding of social class logic, but he still thinks so.

Therefore, Xue Bing knew that she had only two choices: either walk away or apologize sincerely to Cui Jian. She was easy-going and never regarded herself as superior. From a psychological point of view, it was not difficult for her to choose the latter.

Duanmu spoke at the right time, looking at Xue Bing and said, "Come to me, for the beautiful young lady, I will do it for 10 yuan."

Xue Bing smiled and said, "You are such a shameless person. Do you want to openly enter the Xue family and dig up their secrets?"

Xue Bing said: "At the most dangerous moment, you were in Miss Li's car."

Duanmu replied: "Isn't there no room?"

Xue Bing: "Maybach can accommodate five members." Maybach has two models: four-seater and five-seater.

Duanmu was stumped by what he said. He got on the second car without asking, so he spread his hands to indicate that he had nothing to say.

Bai Qi avoided a dull moment by asking Cui Jian, "Boss doesn't like this car very much. Do you have any recommendations?" This Maybach was not new. It was bought five years ago. Because Xue Bing traveled all over the world, the mileage was only over a thousand kilometers.

Cui Jian thought for a long time: "Among luxury cars, I would recommend Aston Martin, which is equipped with a 6.0V12 twin-turbocharged engine. And Lamborghini, which is equipped with a 6.5LV2 naturally aspirated engine. Actually, I don't know much about it. I usually don't drive a car that costs more than $5."

Duanmu: "You poor bastard, I never drive a car that's less than $20."

Cui Jian: "So you don't have a car."

Duanmu said angrily: "I'll pick one up later."

Cui Jian: "You poor bastard, you don't even have a car."

The hotel car arrived at the police station and interrupted the two people's bickering. On the way back to the hotel, Duanmu felt that he did not perform well and was dominated by Cui Jian, which made him very unhappy. When they were about to arrive at the hotel, Li Liang called Xue Bing to apologize for their anticlimactic date.

Bai Qi received information that the drivers of the large truck and the small truck involved in the accident were familiar with each other and were both employees of a truck repair shop. The police have officially opened a case for investigation. Preliminary investigation showed that the other party's mobile phone contained information about Li Liang's assistant booking a hotel villa in Xiaotao Village. It was speculated that the criminal's target was not Xue Bing, but Li Liang.

The police have identified the man wearing a plaid shirt outside the private restaurant and confirmed that he is also an employee of the truck repair shop. They are currently searching for him.

According to the internal information of the security company, this attack was related to Qiu Ya. Since Qiu Ya recruited killers through the Internet, their killers had no obvious characteristics and were mostly ordinary people who dared to risk their lives. Qiu Ya did not kill three people, and this was the first time. The Dayin Security Command Center analyzed the intelligence and also believed that it was very likely that the killer's target was Li Liang.

The local killer recruited by Qiu Ya is a bit elusive because of his hidden identity. Maybe the waiter who served you steak after working in the store for five years is the killer. Maybe the honest security guard at the gate of the community is the killer. Therefore, Li Ran asked Duanmu to explain the situation to the employer and asked Xue Bing not to meet Li Liang again during the employment period, otherwise he would settle according to the terms of the contract.

One of the terms in the contract states that if the employer encounters a dangerous attack, the security company has the right to terminate the contract and, in addition to settling the employment fees on a daily basis, must also pay 30% of the total employment amount.

This was a requirement, not a request. Duanmu explained the company's requirements to Bai Qi, and Bai Qi nodded in agreement.

There are no large suites in Baichuan County, so Bai Qi booked two rooms in total, one for Xue Bing and one for everyone else. Someone needs to be arranged to be on duty in Xue Bing's room at night.

Cui Jian ate instant noodles in the next room and went to Xue Bing's room to be on duty. Xue Bing had already taken a shower, changed into home clothes and was enjoying steak in the living room of the guest room. Bai Qi stood beside Xue Bing, bending over and discussing with Xue Bing on the tablet. Cui Jian walked to the side to look at the scenery. After a while, Bai Qi left and handed the security work to Cui Jian. Xue Bing ate a steak, said good night to Cui Jian, and went to his bedroom to rest.

……

There was no conversation that night. The next day was the day to move the grave. The destination of the grave was the backyard of Xue Bing's villa in Hancheng. It should have been completed in one day, but Xue Bing still believed the Feng Shui master and wanted to perform a ritual for a day and a night. This was obviously because Bai Qi did not pay enough or did not use his fists.

The next day, the three of them brought tents and some food and stayed on the top of the mountain for a whole day until the third morning when the ritual was over. The convoy returned to Hancheng Villa, where there was another day of rituals, but Cui Jian and Duanmu's work was over. Bai Qi hired 20 security guards from Dayin Security to work at the villa, because there were too many places to break ground, and there were many people coming in and out of the villa recently.

It was already 10:30 in the morning when Cui Jian got home from get off work. He opened the refrigerator and looked at it for a while, staring at the ingredients in the refrigerator. He found that all the ingredients in the refrigerator were bought this morning. It seemed that the short-haired woman who bought the ingredients knew when he got off work. But he had no contact with Ye Rannuo and the short-haired woman. The reason why he thought more about it was that when Cui Jian drove back, he thought about how to deal with the ingredients from yesterday and the day before yesterday.

However, Cui Jian only thought about it and soon came up with a lunch based on the ingredients: boiled pork slices with rice. Then cook a portion of braised pork, and have braised pork rice for dinner.

The short-haired girl was also there during lunch, so Cui Jian ate less. The three of them had lunch, and because no one spoke, the atmosphere was low. The two girls exchanged glances, as if Cui Jian was being isolated by the two girls. But Cui Jian didn't care. After lunch, he placed an order on his phone to buy winter clothes, as it would be late autumn in half a month.

While preparing dinner, there was an extra note in the kitchen: three people.

After the silent dinner, Cui Jian sent the dishes to the kitchen, took his coat and went out. After hearing the door close, Ye Rannuo spoke: "You bastard, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you don't even take the initiative to talk to me."

The short-haired girl said, "I think forget it, let's move."

Ye Rannuo looked at the braised pork rice in front of him: "It's delicious."

The short-haired girl: "Your boss sister is quite busy recently. She will hire a professional chef after this period of busyness. You won't have to wash dishes if you live in the villa, and you can also cure your love-brain problem."

Cui Jian drove to a parking lot near the square, took a cheap set of clothes from the back seat, put on a mask, and got out of the car, leaving his phone in the car. He walked through the commercial street, put on a baseball cap, wore his clothes inside out, walked through the park, walked into the maze of alleys, and after a while in the maze, he arrived at Liu Sheng's repair shop.

The repair shop was closed, and Cui Jian pushed the small door and walked in. Liu Sheng was sitting at the repair counter tinkering with his cell phone. He glanced at Cui Jian and then lowered his head.

Cui Jian arrived at the hidden safe house with familiarity, turned on the computer after verifying his retina, and sat down on the chair. After a while, clouds appeared on the screen, and the butler's electronic voice came: "Hi, Xiaoyue."

Cui Jian: "Hi, housekeeper."

Butler: "This hunt is codenamed Operation Giant Whale. We have reached an agreement with Chopin and obtained the address and defense map of the Dead Bomb Laboratory. We will attack three buildings in three cities." The blueprints of the three buildings appeared on the computer screen, and the butler continued to explain the details of Operation Giant Whale. Cui Jian said nothing and listened quietly and carefully.

The butler spent 20 minutes explaining Operation Giant Whale, then asked, "Do you need to leave a last word?"

Cui Jian looked at the screen for a long time and said, "I have a question."

Butler: "Please speak."

Cui Jian: "A lot of people will die, is it worth it?" Butler: "Are you worried about yourself?"

Cui Jian: "I'm not worried about my own life or death. But obviously we may have to lose a lot of people in Operation Whale. Have you thought about the continuity of Seven Kills?"

Butler: "I have thought about it. But I think the conditions are ripe, the plan is ripe, and we must act."

Cui Jian: “Okay.” Stand up.

Butler: "Sit down first."

Cui Jian sat down, and the housekeeper said: "Why don't you ask why the three-headed dog was not used as the center of operations during the hunt in Japan?" The three-headed dog Liu Sheng is the only hellhound in East Asia.

Cui Jian immediately had a bad feeling, and the butler said, "The three-headed dog will not participate in this operation."

At this point, it would be impolite not to ask, so Cui Jian asked, "Why?"

The housekeeper replied: "Someone is investigating Lao Jin. Lao Jin and the three-headed dog have frequent private contacts. Especially after Lao Jin retired, they not only often talked on the phone, but also often met and had meals together. Lao Jin's wife knows the three-headed dog. I want to apologize to you here. I shouldn't have approved the retired Lao Jin to continue his actions."

Cui Jian did not apologize, but asked: "The three-headed dog is going to be exposed?"

Butler: "Yes, you might be exposed as well. Think about it now. Do you have any contact with the three-headed dog? Do you use an encrypted phone for daily communication? Have you appeared in some public places together?"

Cui Jian thought for a long time and said, "There are two. The first is that I transferred 40,000 won to his card number. The second is that he entrusted me to investigate the truth about the attack on celebrity Zhang Ya. However, I was entrusted by Ningning and the company to intervene in this matter." Cui Jian repeated the situation.

After listening, the butler said, "There is no problem with this matter. Is there your information in the transfer record of 40,000 won?"

Cui Jian: “Yes.”

Butler: "The other party hasn't touched the three-headed dog yet. I will deal with this information. Is there any other situation? If there is, you must tell the truth. If it cannot be remedied, leave with him."

Cui Jian asked: "Is he willing to leave?"

Housekeeper: "No, of course it may be that I am too cautious. After all, Lao Jin lives in Hancheng and has many friends in Hancheng. Even if he is suspected, there is hope that he will pass."

Cui Jian: "This is not your style."

Butler: "I believe him."

Cui Jian knew that the trust the butler meant was not trust that Liu Sheng could get away with it, but trust that Liu Sheng knew what he should do after being exposed.

Cui Jian nodded: "I don't have any other questions, do you have any other questions?"

Butler: “No.”

Cui Jian turned off the computer, picked up a waterproof canvas bag from the table, put it on the table, and began to take weapons from the display rack. Disassembled assault rifles, shotguns, pistols, bullets, grenades, stun grenades, weapon accessories, silicon leather masks, etc., filled two canvas bags.

After packing, Cui Jian did not take it away, but left the safe house empty-handed. These two canvas bags were the weapons he chose for the hunt. Liu Sheng would move the two canvas bags to a safe place and then inform Cui Jian of the safe place.

Perhaps this is the only thing he can do during the hunt.

He went downstairs to see Liu Sheng and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't. Cui Jian left through the small door and quickly blended into the night.

……

The next morning at breakfast, Cui Jian received a message from the security company on his mobile phone: Li Liang was attacked again.

The killer was a policeman who was diagnosed with cancer three years ago. Because the cancer was discovered in time and the surgery went smoothly, he lived and worked like an ordinary person. It was not until a month ago when he was examined again that the cancer had spread. For the sake of his family, he used his ID to meet Li Liang, questioned him about the traffic case, and then pulled out his gun and shot him.

The bodyguards around Li Liang subdued the killer at the first opportunity. Li Liang was hit by five bullets. The operation has not been completed since nine o'clock last night. It is obvious that his injuries are very serious.

Just as I read this, another message popped up, Li Liang had been sent to the ICU, temporarily saving his life. Cui Jian sighed, the police are police after all, and the five shots didn't hit any vital points, probably because he was confused at the time.

Li Ran called: "Cui Jian, I'm acting as a middleman now. Hancheng Security Ellie needs help. Are you free today?"

Cui Jian asked: "What is the content of the project?"

Li Ran replied: "Driver, pick up someone from the fishing boat dock and take him to the Giant Tree Club."

There is Meihua Island in the southern suburbs of Hancheng. Meihua Island was created by land reclamation. A one-kilometer highway bridge leads directly to the 5-hectare Meihua Island. The outer waves and beach are white, the second layer of green plants is green, and the center of the island is the overall gray giant tree club. Countless ships docking at the port and going out to sea will pass by Meihua Island. The giant tree club on Meihua Island has become one of the iconic buildings in Hancheng.

Jumu Club is a famous high-end club in Hancheng with five floors and one underground floor. Its business includes performances, singing, sauna, video games, feng shui, fortune-telling, beauty care, fitness, restaurant, guest rooms and so on.

The underground floor is a gambling site. Although it is no different from gambling sites abroad, the police did not find their gambling funds. The person in charge of the club explained that the game coins in the underground amusement park are exchanged by consumption points. Although the game content is no different from gambling, it cannot be exchanged for real money. There are rumors that they use the method of overseas bank recharge and exchange points.

The club is circular, with four main entrances in the east, south, west and north, corresponding to four consumer hobbies, such as performances, singing, sauna, etc. The east gate corresponds to the projects with a little bit of edge.

The Jumu Club adopts a member reception system. You must be introduced by a member to apply. The club will conduct a background check. After the application is approved, you can pay an annual membership fee to enter most consumer venues.

However, the Jumu Club was renamed Jinyu Club half a year ago, and the shareholders have changed. The current owner is a man named Zheng Rui. Zheng Rui was originally a playboy who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun. Because of his father's dying entrustment, he became Ye Wen's godson and also the son-in-law of the Li family. He is a very influential person in the circle.

However, the name of Jinyu Club is too vulgar, so everyone still calls it Jumu Club. After all, it has the name of Jumu Group.

This was a gray commission. After seeing Cui Jian's miraculous rescue on the highway, Ellie contacted Li Ran. She needed a reliable person to send someone to the Jumu Club.
