Chapter 137 We are all helpless
At midnight, on a street leading to the Mei family.
A man and a cat were walking carelessly.
"Meow..." So sleepy...
Fugui followed Su Jiang, full of resentment.
"Meow?" Why should I follow too?
It's just a cat.
At this point, what it should do is sleep, not follow Su Jiang to walk on the street.
"Hold on, silly cat, look, I haven't slept either."
Su Jiang muttered as he walked: "You cats have never suffered and can't even survive such a short night."
"Do you know how hard it is for us humans to work 996 every day?"
"Some companies don't even treat us as human beings, they just work 007 and treat their employees like cattle and horses."
"Joining the company means working, resigning means leaving get off work, these are much happier than your current sleepiness, silly cat..."
Fugui's ears drooped slightly.
If it hadn't been for crawling, it would have stretched out its two paws to cover its ears.
It was annoying, and I had to listen to Su Jiang's muttering.
"Tsk, we're here."
Su Jiang paused and looked at the front.
According to the information that Lao Zheng gave him before he set off on his phone.
This is the Mei family.
Su Jiang came here mainly to check the place first and find clues to see why Mei Zimin wanted to kill him.
"Silly cat, you help me keep watch. If there is any situation, notify me immediately, understand?"
"Did you hear me?"
"Silly cat?"
Su Jiang didn't hear the reply. He turned his head and saw that Fugui had fallen asleep on a wooden chair by the roadside.
"Tsk!"
Su Jiang was a little helpless. Seeing the silly cat like this, he was really sleepy.
It was obviously impossible to ask it to help keep watch in this situation.
"Forget it, I still have to rely on myself..."
Su Jiang took out a black mask from his pocket and put it on his face.
He bought it at a 24-hour convenience store just now. Although it was a bit inferior, it was fine as long as it could cover the face.
The king of grilled cold noodles, go to the account!
Su Jiang activated the gun shadow flow wind, climbed over the high wall, and entered the courtyard of the Mei family.
He landed quietly and looked around vigilantly.
It was quiet and no one noticed him.
"Tsk, why do I feel like a thief?"
Su Jiang's mouth twitched, and then he looked at the villa in the center. Through several windows, he saw that the room inside was lit.
Obviously, there were still people in the Mei family who were not asleep.
But Su Jiang didn't want to rush directly to their house.
He came to scout the place, and he must first survey the surrounding buildings and terrain.
It must be said that Su Jiang already has some experience in blasting.
Innate blasting holy body.
And maybe with better luck, he can find the place where the Mei family puts explosives.
This will save a lot of trouble.
But what Su Jiang didn't know was that the Mei family didn't have explosives at all.
Because the supervision of the Inspection Bureau was too strict.
Once the Mei family was found to have privately stored explosives, no matter how many excuses they had, they would be held accountable and punished by the Inspection Bureau in the most serious way.
Therefore, both the Xie family and the Mei family are very sensitive to these things, even firearms are rare.
Otherwise, Xie Guli would not have practiced flying knives.
Just as Su Jiang was wandering around, in the house of the Mei family.
Mei Zimin was sitting in the study with a sad face, holding a mobile phone in his hand, with a bit of worry in his eyes.
"No news yet..."
He hadn't slept yet, because he was waiting.
Waiting for the news that the seven people had successfully assassinated.
"According to the time, they should have taken action long ago."
"But why has there been no news until now, no news at all."
"Did something happen?"
Mei Zimin tapped the table with his fingers, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the seven people might have failed.
Failure doesn't matter, but it depends on how they failed.
Was they killed in return?
Or were they caught?
It's okay to be killed in return, but if they were caught...
"Don't do it, they will be caught by the people in the Inspectorate."
What Mei Zimin was worried about was the intervention of the Inspectorate.
If the seven people are caught, they will definitely give themselves up. This is inevitable.
Although Mei Zimin cleaned up the traces between the two parties very well.
But what if?
The people in the Inspection Bureau are like dogs. Once they bite the clues, they will not let go.
At that time, I will be in trouble.
Just as Mei Zimin was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
"Dong Dong Dong——"
"Who?"
Mei Zimin looked up, stretched out his hand and gently opened the drawer and put the phone in.
"...... Dad, it's me."
Hearing that it was his daughter's voice, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come in."
Mei Lingling pushed open the door and walked in, her face a little haggard.
Seeing this, Mei Zimin whispered: "What's wrong, why are you still not asleep so late?"
"Dad... can you, can you give me my phone back?"
Since that day, Mei Lingling has been locked up and cannot leave the Mei family.
Even the phone was confiscated by Mei Zimin, so that she could not contact the outside world.
Mei Lingling said carefully: "I promise I won't tell Brother Xie about those things... OK?"
Mei Zimin looked at his daughter and said nothing.
After a long time, he sighed and said, "Whether you want to say it or not, you know it yourself."
"I can give you the phone, but I want you to know one thing."
Mei Zimin opened another drawer, took out Mei Lingling's mobile phone, and placed it on the table.
He stared closely into Mei Lingling's eyes and said, "Once the Xie family gets the news, there will only be one result."
"That means we will start a war with the Xie family in the shortest possible time."
"This is a family dispute, not playing house."
Mei Zimin stood up, walked to Mei Lingling, and said in a low voice: "This matter is irreversible."
"It's impossible for us and the Xie family to coexist."
"You have no choice."
"I... don't have a choice."
"We are all helpless."
Mei Lingling's body trembled and she bit her lips to control her emotions.
Mei Zimin's words completely shattered her last hope.
During her time in detention, she thought a lot.
She thinks there is room for maneuver.
She felt that she could go back to her hometown like before.
But now Mei Zimin told her personally that these were just fantasies.
The reality is cold and cruel.
In front of a huge family, her affection for children and her childish thoughts were revealed.
No one will care.
Mei Zimin stretched out his hand, hugged Mei Lingling gently, patted her back, and said softly:
"I know this may be cruel to you."
"But you have to learn to accept it, because you... are the daughter of my Mei people."
At this moment, Mei Lingling could no longer control her emotions, and tears flowed from her eyes.
The girl rested her head on her father's shoulder and gently closed her eyes.
"...I know, Dad."
"I...will forget the Xie family."
Mei Lingling's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
There was no sadness or joy in his tone.
