“How is he?”
“He’s still unconscious. The doctor said that we have to look at tonight’s condition,” Wang Hao said. They detected potassium cyanide in his coffee. The mine owner was lucky that he only had a small sip, or else he would not be able to see the light anymore.
“Uhm, okay. Hao Zi, I need a favor from you.” Xu Lan put his hand across Wang Hao’s shoulder and said in his ear.
“S… Sir!” Wang Hao was so shocked that he was speechless. How long has it been since Xu Lan had mentioned his nickname? It was since Xu Lan borrowed money from him!
Wang Hao sensed that Xu Lan encountered some issues, thus he did not bring it up. Furthermore, Xu Lan was fired after a few demotions, it was not appropriate if he continued to address him ‘sir’ in front of Lao Chen! So he stopped calling him that.
“S… Sir, you can tell me about it. I will definitely go no matter what!” The skinny young lad stared at Xu Lan with a determined gaze and said without hesitation. Xu Lan laughed and waved his hand to signal Wang Hao to leave. They had to plan this chess game!
Not long after, the mine owner regained consciousness. Hu Cheng lightly tapped away cigarette ashes and looked at the person on the hospital bed, shocked. Meng Chengjun also rushed back and circled the mine owner while he gasped for breath.
“He’s awake? That’s lucky,” Meng Chengjun said with a smile, but his tone made others uncomfortable.
The mine owner was not entirely a good person, it could be even said that he had a rather poor track record. He did quite a number of bad things, where he allowed others to invest in his mining land to do real estate. He also tempered in the timber industry and marked up the price of the wood so that he could pocket a huge amount of profit. The caretaker did not foresee that the mine owner had not been to the mine and gotten pneumoconiosis. That was the reason why ‘Sparrow’ was not able to get his attention! Therefore, he changed his plan and started threatening the mine owner.
The mine owner was terrified of death as he had a family back home and he had not finished spending his earnings yet. He came over to file a police report sobbing, where he was entertained by Lan Er. Then, it was followed by all the things that happened next.
“Director-General Hu, Officer Xiao, you guys have to save me! I don’t even know if the thing that’s haunting me is a ghost or a man, but I’m sure that they’re crazy. They wouldn’t stop hassling me!” The mine owner held onto Xu Lan because he was the person nearest to him. It was frustrating to look at those reddened eyes.
“Since you’re awake, you should return home. It’s not safe for you to stay here,” Hu Cheng said while letting out a sigh.
“Just stay put, they’ll be able to rescue you if there’s an emergency situation!” The corner of Xu Lan’s mouth curled up and said cruelly.
Hu Cheng looked at Xu Lan and said nothing. Suddenly, he felt like Xu Lan was a jinx. Xu Lan was involved in both major cases that occurred throughout his lifetime! He was not sure that if the case met Xu Lan or Xu Lan made the case!
“Who’s guarding tonight?” Hu Cheng asked after giving a thought.
“What’s there to worry when there’s surveillance everywhere. A good man doesn’t even have a long life. If he gets better, we can even arrest him right away,” Xu Lan scoffed.
The mine owner’s face dropped when he heard Xu Lan. If it was not for others showing him some respect, he would have definitely jumped to his feet and scold him!
“This…:”
“Director-General Hu, you guys must be quite tired after guarding for the whole day. Why don’t you guys go back and rest? Don’t worry about Xiao Xu’s babbles, we’ll stay here tonight.” Wang Meng pushed Hu Cheng out and said with an honest smile.
Meng Chengjun glanced at Wang Meng and look around before nodding his head and walked out. Hu Cheng was exhausted after these two days. He felt at ease to go home after hearing what Wang Meng had said. If only he knew that this group of people would wake him up in the middle of the night later, he would definitely charge forward and give a few kicks and punches.
As a matter of fact, Wang Meng and the guys did not go and visit the mine owner. They were waiting for somebody! The mine owner looked at them pitifully while they leave one after another until the room was left with only him, yet he dare not even utter a word.
