Chapter 157 High Reward
On the fourth day of the trip to Japan, Qin Hai was assassinated in the underground parking lot of the group. The bodyguards fought back and put Qin Hai into a bulletproof car. Six of the eight Qin family bodyguards died, and Qin Hai was hit by three bullets and fell into a coma. Two gangsters were shot dead and their bodies were taken away by their accomplices. In the initial report of the police, it was suspected that the gangsters were mercenaries from abroad.
The five gangsters arrived in Hancheng separately under the pretext of traveling, got guns and cars in Hancheng, and ambushed Qin Hai in the underground parking lot.
After a day of rescue, Qin Hai survived, but because the bullet broke his spine, his lower body was permanently paralyzed and his body functions were damaged. Some experts predict that in the future, Qin Hai will only be able to move his head and the left half of his body.
The third battle of Seven Kills was released, and the video focused on the collusion between Chu He and Qin Hai to smuggle people for biological experiments. There was no court-level evidence, only fragmentary information. The video stated that further actions could not be ruled out, and everything depended on whether Qin Hai pleaded guilty. Qin Hai was given three choices. The first choice: plead guilty. The second choice: end his own life. The third choice: be punished by association.
Ten hours after the video was released, the National Criminal Police officially released a message that according to reliable information, Qi Sha admitted that the assassinations of Chu He and Qin Hai were related to Qi Sha, and explained that the assassinations were in accordance with Qi Sha's rules and procedures. However, Qi Sha did not comment on the Xth Battle, nor did he admit that the Xth Battle of Qi Sha was related to Qi Sha.
Guo Xing believes that the Xth War has no direct relationship with the Seven Killings, but the assassinations of Chu He and Qin Hai are definitely directly related to the Seven Killings, although it may not be the main relationship. The person behind the Xth War intends to confuse the public by telling the truth and falsehood to obstruct the investigation.
On the sixth day of the trip to Japan, Yiyi informed Cui Jian that Liu Sheng had not only left Korea, but also got a new identity. He would become a quasi-Hellhound instructor with his new identity after plastic surgery. Yiyi officially took over as the East Asian Hellhound. At the same time, Qisha entered a semi-sleeping state. In theory, no targets or assassination missions would be issued for the time being. The main work was still done by the Hellhounds. This included replenishing supplies, organizing safe houses, and rebuilding the Qisha network. The minimum goal: to have enough resources to fight a new hunt.
In the past few days, the beautiful nurse specially hired by Duanmu has been conscientious and dedicated to taking care of him in all aspects. As a result, he recovered quickly despite his already good physical condition. When he returned to Hancheng, he was able to undergo physical recovery training and could return to work within a week.
Because Duanmu was the victim, Cui Jian parked his car in the airport parking lot before going to Japan. When he returned to Hancheng, he drove out of the airport and got into the car. Duanmu paid the parking fee with a gloomy face. Cui Jian wanted to send Duanmu to the hotel where he would stay for a long time, but Duanmu said he would go to Lihua Road first. Cui Jian suggested: "It's not good to stay in a hotel all the time. It's more comfortable to rent a house outside."
Duanmu asked curiously: "Why? Are you going to recommend the smallest bedroom in your house again?"
Cui Jian explained: "No matter how small a bedroom is, it is still a bedroom."
Duanmu said: "No thanks, I have already bought a villa near you."
Duanmu added: "Full payment, 150 billion."
Cui Jian rolled his eyes: You know how to disgust people.
Duanmu's house is about 1.5 kilometers away from Cui Jian's house. Lihua Road is an upward slope, and Duanmu's house is at the top of the slope, with a view that beats Cui Jian's house. The area is twice that of Cui Jian's house, and the privacy is similar to Cui Jian's house. The difference is that Duanmu's house has a servants' building, two floors, eight rooms, and can be expanded if needed.
Duanmu not only bought a house, but also hired two full-time nannies through an agency, paying them twice the market price, and successfully recruited two young girls who graduated from a home economics major.
When Cui Jian and Duanmu arrived, the agent was already waiting, and the nanny had prepared lunch while they signed. Duanmu talked to them for a while, promoted one of the girls to housekeeper, and doubled her salary during the internship period, and agreed to hire two more servants, leaving the specific matters to the housekeeper.
Duanmu explained several of his rules: do not discuss the boss and his friends publicly or privately, do not develop romantic relationships with colleagues, do not allow relatives of staff to enter the villa, do not stay in the main building unless necessary, etc.
Duanmu asked the housekeeper to buy two grocery carts for the family in the afternoon, and the housekeeper would be responsible for allocating and managing their use.
Looking at Duanmu's gentlemanly demeanor, Cui Jian could only sneer: Is being rich so great? Yes, it is great, brother, can you find someone to help me buy groceries?
Cui Jian doesn’t like buying groceries, he prefers to cook while watching the vegetables.
……
After eating and drinking, Cui Jian slipped away to avoid becoming a control group. Although he was a house slave before, he at least had a high-value asset like a villa. Now when he looked back and compared himself with others, he was so angry.
There was no change in his own home. After parking the car, Cui Jian picked up his luggage and walked into the living room. When he opened the door, a warm current came over him. In Korea, heating is charged separately for each household. Cui Jian usually does not turn on the heating in the hall. It is not because he is stingy, but because he thinks it is unnecessary to waste the money. Xueying rarely stays outside the room for too long, so she does not turn on the outdoor heating.
After all, there is a head nurse living there to take care of Xueying, so let's just open the room.
Cui Jian put his luggage in his bedroom, went downstairs, opened the refrigerator and looked around for a while, then took out a strip of pork belly to defrost. He took out some peppers from the freezer, which were not very fresh but still edible. After processing them, he prepared to have twice-cooked pork for dinner. When he was about to go back to his bedroom to rest, he met the nurse. Cui Jian asked about Xueying's condition without thinking and went back to his bedroom.
I opened the company app and received the latest notification that the price of Dayin Security has increased fivefold. When I was in Japan, Li Ran had already called and asked about the time of return and Duanmu's physical condition, and decided to send them the project in three days. He was also afraid and did not dare to let Duan Cui choose the project freely.
Cui Jian has few friends, a narrow social circle, and few friends on social software, which means he has less time for social activities. He leaned against the bed and watched short videos. When he felt sleepy, he took a nap and woke up at 4:30 in the afternoon.
After taking a shower, Cui Jian went to the kitchen to cook rice, prepare pork belly, and make a cake. While waiting, Cui Jian made a pot of tea in the living room, browsed his phone, drank hot tea, and lived a comfortable and cozy life.
Cui Jian heard the sound of the iron gate opening, walked to the door, and through the glass window on the sliding door, saw two luxury cars driving into the villa. In the cars were Yun Xinyue and six bodyguards.
Two female bodyguards carried bags of different sizes and followed Yun Xinyue into the house. The other bodyguards drove away one of the cars, presumably to stay nearby waiting to be called.
When he saw the visitor, Cui Jian didn't react much and sat back to make tea. The sliding door opened, and Yun Xinyue saw Cui Jian and greeted him enthusiastically: "Hello, Cui Jian."
Cui Jian looked up at Yun Xinyue and nodded: "Hello." He continued to look at his phone to indicate that he was busy and asked not to disturb him.
Yun Xinyue had the things delivered to the third floor. She hung her coat aside and sat on the sofa opposite Cui Jian. She took off her big red hat, tidied her hair with her hands, and was about to speak when the timer rang from the kitchen. Cui Jian stood up and went to the kitchen.
Cui Jian took the cake out of the oven, cut a corner to try it, and it was a little sweet, but it was acceptable as an afternoon tea pastry, and it could also be had as breakfast with milk.
Yun Xinyue, who was standing at the kitchen door, asked, "Did you do this?" There was some surprise in her tone.
Cui Jian nodded, put the cake aside, washed his hands, took out the pork belly from the pot and sliced it. During this time, he took two pieces of boiled meat, dipped them in the chili sauce he made, and put them into his mouth. It was very good, quite good.
Yun Xinyue said: "Cui Jian, I ordered food from a five-star hotel. We can eat together tonight."
Cui Jian said: "No, thank you."
Yun Xinyue: "Where did you learn cooking?"
"Online." Cui Jian stopped and looked at Yun Xinyue, and asked, "Ms. Yun, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Yun Xinyue replied: "It's nothing, but you are Xueying's landlord after all, so I should flatter you. Tell me, what do you like?"
Cui Jian replied: "No, thank you Ms. Yun. Just like before, I will take care of Xueying if I can."
Yun Xinyue said regretfully, "It's a pity that you are not my son. If I had a son as sensible as you, I would be so happy."
Having said that, Cui Jian couldn't help but ask: "What happened to your son?"
Yun Xinyue fell into reminiscence and said after a while: "That was a ridiculous thing in high school."
After giving birth, Yun Xinyue and the child's father were panicked. They learned from the Internet that Hong Kong has a very secretive adoption policy, so Yun Xinyue asked her father's assistant for help. He arranged a yacht trip to Hong Kong and dropped the child off at the door of a social work service agency. But the truth could not be hidden, and Yun Xinyue's father eventually found out. He was extremely angry. He couldn't find the child anymore. In the end, Yun Xinyue was exiled to Busan, and the child's father took a sum of money and went to live in another city.
Yun Xinyue said, "In the first few years, the Yun family did not give up looking for the child, until I met my current husband in college. My father told me that this matter should be over. I thought it was over, but with the birth of three children, I thought of him more frequently. What I regret most is that I did not leave a token, cutting off all possibilities." Yun Xinyue finished speaking and changed the subject: "What about you?"
Cui Jian was puzzled: "Me?"
Yun Xinyue: "You are willing to do a paternity test with me, which means you don't know who your biological parents are."
Cui Jian said: "You are wrong. I know who my biological parents are. My mother is from Ul Island, and my grandmother just passed away last year." Cui Jian briefly explained his resume. His parents died early, and he was hanging around in the United States, and became mentally ill. On the doctor's advice, he returned to Korea and went to Ul Island where his grandmother lived for recuperation. One day, he capsized in the sea, and after being rescued, he lost his memory..."
Yun Xinyue was surprised: "Then why are you willing to do a paternity test with me?"
Cui Jian replied: "Because I know I can't convince you with words, in order to avoid more interactions and troubles in the future, I agreed to do a paternity test. For example, before the paternity test, if I tell you about my story, will you believe me? Even if you believe me, you will think that I was adopted by them. Even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, you will ask me to do a paternity test."
Yun Xinyue: "Do I look overbearing?"
Cui Jian replied: "It has nothing to do with your appearance. You have superior resources and it is impossible for you to have an equal negotiation with someone who only has inferior resources. On the contrary, I am a wealthy family and you are just an ordinary person. You may not even have the courage to discuss it."
Does he mean that he looks very domineering? Yun Xinyue nodded: "That makes sense, it's a pity."
Cui Jian: “Me too.”
Yun Xinyue smiled and said, "I don't see that you have any regrets even the size of a fingernail."
Cui Jian also smiled: "Ms. Yun, I'm just being polite, don't force me."
Yun Xinyue: "I like your personality."
Cui Jian: "Me too." Why can't we keep talking today? We are not familiar with each other, so there is no need to be polite, right?
Yun Xinyue asked in surprise: "Do you like my personality?"
Cui Jian: "No, I like my personality too."
"Haha." Yun Xinyue laughed happily and said, "You are very interesting."
Cui Jian: "Thank you, would you like to try the cake? Although it hasn't been trimmed, it tastes okay." You can't be stopped by words, so how about eating it?
Yun Xinyue was not polite. She took a piece from the cake knife and put it directly into her mouth. After tasting it for a while, she said, "It's a little too sweet. I can only give it 90 points. It's very good."
"Thank you."
Yun Xinyue looked at the ingredients prepared on the chopping board and asked, "What are you preparing?"
Cui Jian: “Twice-cooked pork.”
Yun Xinyue: "Only one dish for dinner?"
Cui Jian replied: "I just came back and didn't go to buy ingredients. One dish is enough."
Yun Xinyue chatted with Cui Jian in the kitchen, and the topic soon turned to Xueying. Yun Xinyue said the truth: Xueying was not rebellious at all, but she was inferior.
Xueying's sister has begun to take over Yun Xinyue's company. She is calm, decisive, opinionated and far-sighted, much better than her mother who acts on her own accord.
Although Xueying's brother is still a college student, he has excellent grades and is a genius. He is now an indispensable figure in the tutor team. Because of his outstanding appearance, gentle personality and wealthy background, he is the dream lover of countless senior and junior students. His future achievements are limitless.
Xueying worked very hard, but all her efforts were lost under the halo of her sister and brother. Her sister was a businessman, her brother was a scientist, and her father was a lawyer. So in her opinion, if she wanted to have her own place in this family, the only choice was to open up another career, and the doctor profession was almost her only choice.
The more well-intentioned people tried to persuade her, the more she resisted. She would not allow herself to be mediocre. In order to show her ambition and not be bound by her family, she came to Hancheng alone to join a repeat school. Her family also understood her, so they never bothered her.
Yun Xinyue, with her own mother filter, said: "Xueying is very kind, strong and brave, but she has too little social experience, and these personality traits will bring her troubles."
Cui Jian nodded: "Excuse me, I have to take a call."
Li Ran: "There is a super high-paying project with a daily salary of 5 million."
Cui Jian: "After deducting the company's commission?"
Li Ran replied: "Of course."
Cui Jian: "Why is it so high?"
Li Ran said, "Her name is Kate, and she is Target No. 42 of the Seven Killers. She will stay in Hancheng for seven days. The project bonus is million won. Condition: No more than two bodyguards around her."
That’s too much information.
Cui Jian killed No. 42 himself. This Kate must be a fake and has a direct relationship with the Raincoat Guest. The Raincoat Guest and Qi Sha have reached a verbal agreement. Now they are letting the fake Kate come to Hancheng and hiring no more than two bodyguards. What does that mean? What is the purpose?
Cui Jian suddenly figured it out. This was the way the Raincoat Man showed No. 42 to the public. He meant that No. 42 could roam freely in the streets of Hancheng, where the Seven Killers were the most arrogant, under his protection.
Damn! The straw raincoat man's abacus beads all fell on his face.
Qi Sha would definitely not attack the fake Kate, so he had to get a piece of the pie: "I took it."
Li Ran said: "This project is 3S level dangerous."
Cui Jian: "As long as the money is enough, I can fight Satan alone. I will take it alone." If I don't take advantage of this opportunity, I will be sorry for the two chopsticks that killed No. 42.
Li Ran said hurriedly: "It is absolutely impossible to do it alone. If you really need to take it, bring Duanmu along."
"it is good."
