Chapter 137 Who is the trainer?
Chapter 137 Who is the trainer?
Out of all those strong female leads, Lu Chengwen was most afraid of Luo Shiyin.
But the one who angered him the most was definitely Zhang Shen'er.
This little brat, for some reason, hadn't been online lately. According to the normal plot development, she should be investigating cases with Long Aotian, then developing feelings for him, and finally, they will end up in a steamy romance, shameless and disgraceful, with no shame at all!
But looking at her now, she's clearly still single.
Lu Chengwen thought to himself:
[This little brat, it's never good when I met you. I bet this time she's thinking it's my doing again and wants to pin the blame on me.]
[I finally took a break for myself, came to the mountains, and still encountered a bunch of trouble, who did I offend?]
[But she's eventually going to be in Long Aotian's harem, it's best not to provoke her.]
Thinking about this, Lu Chengwen squeezed out a smile: "Oh, Officer Zhang, long time no see. You've grown...no, you've become even prettier."
Zhang Shen'er looked at him coldly.
Could it have nothing to do with him?
"Yeah, I've grown and become prettier." Zhang Shen'er coughed.
Why am I acting like him?!
"Lu Chengwen, you've shown great courage this time, worthy of praise?"
Lu Chengwen dryly laughed: "To see injustice and draw your sword to help is always my motto! Fighting injustice, helping the weak, and contributing to my hometown, have always been my principles. As for honesty, sincerity, law-abiding, and saving lives...these are always my rules. Like helping old ladies cross the road, I do it three or four times a week, and even six or seven times during holidays..."
"Okay." Zhang Shen'er said with a straight face: "Huo Wendong only suffered external injuries, he'll be able to give a statement soon. I hope you can still sit then."
"I can, I can." Lu Chengwen said: "I have a clear conscience, what am I afraid of? Haha! But some people, think they're great just because they wear a police uniform, they always think rich people are bastards. Whether someone is a bastard has little to do with whether they have money or not. Officer Zhang, don't you think so?"
"Yeah." Zhang Shen'er sneezed: "A good person like Mr. Lu, who is both rich and brave, is rare. I hope this is your true character. You know, some people are just good at pretending. They pretend for so long, they even believe themselves."
"But pretending is still pretending, it will always show. I'm a person, once there's evidence..."
She leaned closer to Lu Chengwen: "No matter how big a shot you are, you'll have to go to jail."
Lu Chengwen laughed: "Officer Zhang, goodbye."
"Mr. Lu, see you later."
...
Meanwhile.
The leader of the branch coughed and started a video call.
"Miss Shiyin, how did you get my video account?"
Luo Shiyin's face looked a little pale, she was both angry and frustrated: "The young master gave it to me before he went into seclusion. He told me to contact you directly if necessary."
"Hmm, is there something you need?"
Luo Shiyin's brows were tightly furrowed: "You don't know?"
"Know what?"
Luo Shiyin's eyes were suspicious: "Your subordinates, Jin Tuo Wang and that strategist are already Lu Chengwen's lackeys."
"Impossible! Oh, ouch..."
The leader was so excited that his hemorrhoids hurt again. He endured the pain: "Jin Tuo Wang and the strategist are loyal to me, and their status in the branch is almost second to none, there's no reason for them to betray!"
"Really?" Luo Shiyin said: "I saw with my own eyes that they were with Lu Chengwen's men, and they were very harmonious."
"You saw it with your own eyes?"
Luo Shiyin glared: "I saw it with my own eyes!"
"How did you see it!?"
"The distance was less than two hundred meters, I could see clearly. There were four people in total. They were Lu Chengwen's secretary, Jiang Shihan, Lu Chengwen's most loyal lackey, Zhao Gang, and Jin Tuo Wang and the strategist! The four of them were supporting each other, getting along harmoniously! Leader, you still don't believe me?"
"There's...no reason! They just extorted 5 billion from Lu Chengwen yesterday, and they've already reported the next phase of the action plan to me. According to them, they're going to extort a lot of money this time to help the young master do things!"
"Did they give you the 5 billion?"
"What would I do with it? I told them to wait for the young master to come out of seclusion, and give it directly to him!"
At this moment, someone else applied to join the video call.
The leader saw that it was Jin Tuo Wang and the strategist, and immediately accepted the call.
The strategist said solemnly: "Leader, Jin Tuo Wang has betrayed! Please be careful, Leader!"
Jin Tuo Wang said angrily: "You're full of crap! I think you're the one who's about to rebel!"
The leader's mind was about to explode: "You...I'm going to f***ing...one at a time! One at a time! Strategist, you speak first!"
The strategist said angrily: "Jin Tuo Wang is already Lu Chengwen's man. The reason why this operation has repeatedly failed is because he colluded with Lu Chengwen inside and out, causing my plans to be thwarted step by step!"
Jin Tuo Wang roared: "Strategist, I'm going to f*** your mother! You're slandering me! Damn it, you're the one doing all the good things, and you're trying to pin the blame on me! If I see you again, I won't be merciful, I'll slap you to death!"
Luo Shiyin was even more confused.
Didn't they betray together? Why are they calling back and accusing each other?
The leader's mind was completely in chaos: "I'll say it again, one at a time! Strategist, you say Jin Tuo Wang betrayed, where's your evidence?"
The strategist said: "Leader, when we set out, how many Little Reversal Pills did you give us?"
"One."
"Just one?"
"You're my strategist, why would I lie to you about this? Besides, even if I wanted to give you two, I wouldn't have them! Our branch only has one, and it was given by the main branch, it was kept for emergencies. What's wrong?"
The strategist bowed his fists and saluted: "That Little Reversal Pill, Jin Tuo Wang ate it himself! This kind of thing can't be hidden. At that time, he was riddled with bullet wounds. As soon as I checked his pulse, I knew he had eaten the Little Reversal Pill. Otherwise, he would have been dead!"
The leader was stunned: "So...why was he riddled with bullet wounds? If it was a matter of life and death, anyone would have eaten it, right?"
"Leader, that Little Reversal Pill was given to him by Lu Chengwen! Lu Chengwen also saved his life, otherwise he would have been shot to death by Huo Wendong long ago."
"Why are you bringing up Huo Wendong again? What are you two talking about!?"
Jin Tuo Wang angrily said: "Why don't you tell the leader who gave Lu Chengwen the Little Reversal Pill? Who gave Lu Chengwen the 5 billion cash!?"
The leader widened his eyes: "You gave Lu Chengwen the Little Reversal Pill and 5 billion cash!?"
The strategist stammered: "The situation was very dangerous at the time, I misjudged, I thought we were ambushed, so..."
"Ambushed your ass!" Jin Tuo Wang roared: "Everything was what you said. You just keep talking, saying this is dangerous, that is dangerous, saying that we've been marked, that the whole hotel is full of masters. You also said that if we didn't give Lu Chengwen this money, he wouldn't let us go. Is that what you said?"
"Lu Chengwen wouldn't let you go!?" The leader was about to go crazy: "Why!?"
Jin Tuo Wang said: "The strategist lied to me, saying that Lu Chengwen isn't working alone, he's part of a larger, more secretive, more powerful, and more sinister organization than ours. Lu Chengwen is just the organization's public face. Now that the organization has surrounded the hotel, if we don't give Lu Chengwen the money, we'll all die! Did you say that? Lu Chengwen took the money, chatted for a bit, and then you forced me to give him the Little Reversal Pill too, right!?"
The strategist angrily said: "I was just misjudging! It was because Hua Xueqing said that Hun Tian Gang taught the young master three ultimate moves, namely Ha Dugen, Hao Yougen, and Lai Gen Bu Lai Gen! I heard someone shouting these moves at the door, so I mistakenly thought it was the enemy showing off their strength!"
"Cut it out! I saw it, it was a gaming machine! A gaming machine! Damn it! You two teamed up to use a gaming machine to deceive me!"
Luo Shiyin said with a straight face: "Speak clearly, you said Hua Xueqing deceived you?"
Jin Tuo Wang said: "Hua Xueqing is an idiot! She's crazy! She's crazy!"
The leader's face was already gloomy: "Strategist, did you really...give Lu Chengwen the money and the Little Reversal Pill?"
"Yes!" The strategist admitted: "I admit, I took a gamble. But in the mountains, Jin Tuo Wang was riddled with bullet wounds, he was close to death, and Lu Chengwen saved him! Why would Lu Chengwen save him? He's clearly Lu Chengwen's enemy! And that Little Reversal Pill, such a precious elixir, Lu Chengwen didn't even blink, he gave it to him without hesitation. Lu Chengwen ran away before I arrived. Why? He has no personal connection with Lu Chengwen? Do you believe that?"
The leader looked at Jin Tuo Wang: "Jin Tuo! What's going on?"
"How would I know!?" Jin Tuo Wang said: "He...I really have nothing to do with him! He kidnapped my brother, I was going to kill him, everyone knows that! You know it best, Leader! I've always advocated for directly killing him, but the strategist always stopped me. Yes! He stopped me, he didn't let me kill Lu Chengwen! He said taking his life was useless, we had to get his money first! And the result? Hmph! He gave the money to Lu Chengwen!"
The leader's brain was almost fried.
He felt a splitting headache.
The strategist said: "Yes! I returned the money to Lu Chengwen, but that was a misjudgment! Misjudgment! And you? Later, I could have killed Lu Chengwen's two men, why did you stop me? You even attacked me!?"
Jin Tuo Wang roared: "Lu Chengwen saved my life! At that time, I was lying on the ground, dying, being pointed at by a dozen gangsters with guns. At that time, I was utterly disheartened, thinking that I was going to die in the hands of a bunch of trash! But Lu Chengwen saved me, he later saved you too! Should we attack the men of our benefactor? Is this the way of our martial arts world? If I let you kill Lu Chengwen's men, what difference is there between me and a beast!?"
The leader said: "What are you saying? Lu Chengwen is your benefactor? What else? Strategist, did Lu Chengwen also save you?"
"Ah?" The strategist hemmed and hawed: "Just...Jin Tuo Wang, you son of a b****, didn't we agree to keep this a secret forever?"
Jin Tuo Wang angrily said: "Keep your damn secret! You falsely accused me of being a traitor, and I still keep it a secret for you?"
The strategist said: "You goddamn fool, we both agreed to keep this a secret forever. If it gets out, it will spread throughout the martial arts world, and we'll become the most disgraceful duo in the North!"
"Didn't you force me?"
"When did I force you?"
"You said I was a traitor!"
"Aren't you? Dare you say you aren't!?"
"Then are you? I think you are!"
The leader said: "You two shut up! Tell me about that incident! Tell me!"
Jin Tuo Wang: "What incident?"
The leader: "The incident where you two did something shameful, the incident where you were saved by Lu Chengwen! Tell me!"
The leader felt that there must be something fishy about this, it could be used as a basis to directly judge who was the traitor between them.
"Uh..." Jin Tuo Wang stammered: "Actually...it's nothing."
The leader narrowed his eyes: "Strategist, you speak!"
"Just...sigh...just..." The strategist also hemmed and hawed: "Actually, there's nothing much."
Luo Shiyin sneered: "Leader, they're both acting, no matter which one you believe, the other one will be safe, they can continue to be undercover. I saw it with my own eyes, they are both traitors!"
Jin Tuo Wang and the strategist both angrily said: "Bitch! You're really sinister!"
The leader slammed his fist on the table and roared: "Tell me about that incident! Otherwise, I will immediately dispatch all the Black Guards and issue a permanent kill order! I'll cut you two into a thousand pieces!"
