Siheyuan: Learning to be the sixth
Chapter 736: Suffering.
Zhao Jinsheng led his trusted men nervously, hoping for a chance, and began to search for Li Si in the places he often visited. Along the way, they were like frightened birds, causing a commotion wherever they went. Especially those small bosses who made a living by doing shady business and didn't know the truth were frightened by these uninvited guests and fled everywhere, causing chaos.
However, Zhao Jinsheng had no time to explain to the small bosses who depended on him. He anxiously led his men to search for a long time, but still could not find any trace of Li Si. At this time, he suddenly remembered that Li Si had mentioned a warehouse when they were drinking before, but because they were both a little drunk at the time, he only vaguely remembered that there was such a thing, and had no idea about the specific location of the warehouse.
Zhao Jinsheng knew very well that the area near the train station was not a place where he could run wild at will. There were all kinds of people there, and various forces were intertwined. With his current strength and influence, he was far from being able to run rampant here. In desperation, he could only lead his men back to his office in dismay and called Zhao Chuanqi again.
There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, and then Zhao Chuanqi's deep and magnetic voice was heard. The voice seemed to come from a distant place, carrying an invisible pressure.
When Zhao Jinsheng finished reporting the situation anxiously to Zhao Chuanqi, Zhao Chuanqi on the other end of the phone just replied indifferently and coldly: "Wait for my letter." After saying this, he didn't even give Zhao Jinsheng any chance to respond, and hung up the phone without hesitation.
At this moment, whether it was Zhao Jinsheng who was anxiously waiting for news, or He Yuzhu and others who were equally anxious, they were all deeply trapped in the endless torment brought by the passing of time. Every second that passed quietly seemed like a ruthless sharp blade, tearing their nerves that had already been tense to the extreme. This feeling made them unable to sit or stand, and their hearts felt as if they were being gnawed by thousands of ants, making them restless.
He Yuzhu, who had just woken up from a good sleep, opened his eyes in a daze and glanced at the watch on his wrist, and found that it was just past twelve o'clock. Because he was in the wild, there was no other sound around except the whistling north wind. The biting cold north wind blew on his body, making people curl up tighter involuntarily, as if only in this way could they resist the severe cold outside. Perhaps because of this, although he did not sleep for a long time, He Yuzhu felt that he was particularly awake at this moment.
So he simply ate some dry food and water that he carried with him, then took the initiative to get up and replace a young soldier on duty so that he could return to the warm tent and have a good rest.
Here, Zhao Jinsheng paced around the room like an ant on a hot pot. Time passed by minute by minute, and every minute seemed as long as a year to him. More than an hour passed, and just when he was about to lose his patience, the long-awaited phone finally rang.
Zhao Jinsheng rushed forward in two steps, grabbed the phone on the table, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Hello!"
Zhao Chuanqi's steady voice came from the other end of the phone: "I found out that Li Si and the others were detained in Warehouse No. 7 near the train station. But it's not convenient for me to show up directly now. I have contacted Gu Dashan from the station branch, and he will take you there. Jinsheng, the situation this time is rather special. At a critical moment, losing some face is nothing. A real man can bend and stretch. After the matter is resolved, we will find a way to earn back the lost face. You should understand what I mean, right?"
Zhao Jinsheng nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I know what to do. I will definitely handle this matter properly." At this time, Zhao Jinsheng still naively thought that as long as he bowed his head slightly to the other party and admitted his mistakes, the matter would be solved smoothly. However, how could he have imagined that what a thrilling journey would be waiting for him next?
Some people are always arrogant and look down on others, as if they were born to be superior. They have long been accustomed to this arrogant attitude, so much so that when they occasionally bow their heads, they think it is a great gift and face for you. However, as the old saying goes: "Evil people need evil people to deal with them."
After learning the exact address, Zhao Jinsheng knew that this matter could not be delayed. He quickly gathered his most trusted confidants and rushed to the vicinity of the railway station at lightning speed, just to meet up with Gu Dashan as soon as possible.
When the two met successfully, they were worried that the longer they delayed, the more unexpected things would happen, so they tacitly understood each other and set out on the journey again without stopping, heading straight for Warehouse No. 7.
Along the way, Gu Dashan was secretly thinking about how to take this opportunity to go further. After all, if he could help Zhao Chuanqi to successfully become a regular employee, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to his future development. So, he suddenly had an idea and came up with a brilliant idea. He leaned over to Zhao Jinsheng and whispered, "Jinsheng, when we meet Li Si and the others later, we might as well say that there is an important case that needs their assistance in the investigation and we must take them back to the police station. In this way, not only can you save face, but I can also mediate and give the other party a way out. Wouldn't everyone be happy this way?"
Zhao Jinsheng was no longer as panicked as he was at first, and his heart gradually calmed down. Gu Dashan's initiative to show his goodwill to him was like a spring breeze, which instantly filled his vain heart to the brim, as if it was about to overflow.
Jin Sheng showed a smug look on his face, and said to Gu Dashan: "Brother Gu, you are really smart and this idea is great! Let's do as you say. But, after my uncle successfully becomes a regular employee, humph... no matter how deep the background of the boss who rents warehouse No. 7 is, I will never let him go and I must teach him a good lesson! When the time comes, I will make sure he knows how powerful I am!" As he said that, Jin Sheng waved his fist, as if he had already seen the scene of himself being proud and victorious.
