Chapter 221: Saving the Ruthless Crime Lord 09

At seven in the evening, the plane landed on time.

Meng Fuchi took Jin Chen to the booked hotel to settle in, then repeatedly warned him not to run around, and only after that did he, A Qiang, and the others finalize the action plan one last time.

This is the Poison Stock's old nest, and also a storage point for all the property of Red Light Street.

Meng Fuchi projected the previously collected map onto the wall and pointed out the several routes leading to this location.

I will meet at Twilight Night Bar to negotiate with the leader of another gang trying to seize the Poison Stock's territory; as the Poison Stock's leader, Long Zhen Tian will focus his efforts here.

Zuo Kun stood on his left and A Qiang on his right, watching closely.

Meng Fuchi continued: "The defenses at the southern intersection of Twilight Night Bar are the tightest; Long Zhen Tian has added extra personnel on the other two routes, thus overlooking this spot."

Zuo Kun: "So, we're going to charge in from here?"

No, you enter this intersection and take this shortcut.

Meng Fuchi's slender fingertip stopped at the spot marked by the red line.

Understood?

"Understood, boss!" A Qiang and another person said in unison.

Meanwhile, outside the hotel room.

Jin Chen and Liang Shu both came to find Meng Fuchi, and they ran into each other.

What are you doing here?

Liang Shu frowned: "The boss and the others are discussing important matters; it's not just petty squabbles, you can't go in, and the boss won't let you in."

Then why are you here too, Brother Liang?

Jin Chen asked curiously.

I'm the boss's trusted aide, and I'm certainly not like you!

Liang Shu shoved him away and knocked on the door with his fingertip.

"Who." Meng Fuchi's voice came out immediately.

"It's me, Liang Shu, the boss; everything for tonight's negotiation is ready; let me show it to you."

"Wait outside." His voice was calm and unruffled.

Jin Chen couldn't help laughing; he had never seen anyone rushing to suffer a setback before.

Then excuse me, Brother Liang.

I won't open the door even if you knock; do you think knocking will help?

Liang Shu's face turned red with anger, and he sneered through gritted teeth.

Knock knock knock—

Without waiting for a response from inside, Jin Chen spoke to himself.

"Brother Chi, I have something to give you."

"Come in."

Meng Fuchi's voice sounded again.

Liang Shu gasped, eyes wide, watching Jin Chen enter.

What the hell!! Why can't I even get in?!

Are they humiliating me again?!

Hasn't Meng Fuchi been saying all along that he treats me as a confidant? Why the double standards—one thing to my face, another behind my back?

He clutched the documents in his arms tightly, and only after a long while did he turn and leave.

The killing intent in his heart grew stronger, completely forgetting that five years ago, his life had been saved by Meng Fuchi.

Jin Chen opened the door, poked his head in, saw there were other people in the room, quickly wiped off his smile, and walked in obediently.

"Brother Chi, this is for you to wear."

He took out a red cord, the jade pendant on it warm and lustrous, looking quite valuable.

"What is this?" Meng Fuchi lowered his head, letting him tie it on, and asked hesitantly.

"It's a life-preserving jade pendant I've worn since childhood; I even had it blessed at the most efficacious temple. Wearing it will shield you from many dangers."

Jin Chen tied it seriously and carefully, then gave a rough excuse: "Brother Chi, you must come back safely."

"... Hmm."

Meng Fuchi unconsciously touched his chest; the jade pendant was hidden beneath his shirt, not conspicuous.

For no reason, he suddenly felt a warm surge rise to his chest, perhaps from emotion, or perhaps from some other feeling.

In short, he did not reject wearing the jade pendant on the red cord.

【Villain Heartthrob Value detected +5, total now 20!】

"Be careful at the hotel too, even though we've posted guards, but we can't guarantee no one will make a move." He then rubbed Jin Chen's hair, giving the warning.

"Okay!"

Jin Chen nodded, feeling embarrassed under the gazes of Zuo Kun and the others, then rushed forward to hug Meng Fuchi before quickly turning and jogging out of the room.

"Wow, this person treats you really well, boss." Zuo Kun teased with a smile.

A Qiang stroked his chin, thinking that this fool who could be swindled out of 500,000 wasn't worthy of the boss, but if the boss liked him, there was nothing else to do.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Meng Fuchi made no effort to hide the smile at the corner of his mouth, stopping the two from continuing their nonsense.

——

Nine o'clock in the evening.

A fit figure leapt onto the platform between two buildings, slightly bent over, and observed everything from the rooftop.

【0731, is everything arranged?】

【Don't worry, Host, everything has been arranged according to your request.】

0731 spoke firmly, 【If this succeeds tonight, can I come out to get something to eat? I want meat!】

【……Whatever works.】

Jin Chen observed the few people at the street intersection, suddenly wondering whether he should also let the spiritual Bai Ze provide some living expenses for him, otherwise he couldn't afford to keep 0731.

Whose system thinks about eating meat every day, wouldn't it leak oil?

A few minutes later, he saw Du Ruosong's arranged blockers arrive at the intersection, withdrew his wild imagination, and observed seriously.

As expected, after Du Ruosong learned of the plan, he would arrange his own people to intercept another gang that also wanted to seize control of the toxin strain, the Red Gang's people.

As long as he makes the Red Gang and ELF fight beforehand, Long Zhen Tian will immediately become vigilant, and then all of Meng Fuchi's plans will come to nothing.

Similarly, this matter will likewise become evidence and a stain of Meng Fuchi's mistaken decision, just like the previous casino incident.

Unfortunately, tonight will not go as he wished.

0731 sent a message to the person opposite using the virtual account it created.

Immediately, before Du Ruosong's people could even go in to provoke the Red Gang's people, they were intercepted in reverse by several black-clad individuals who suddenly rushed forward.

They didn't know where these people came from, and to escape they could only fight.

Fortunately, this intersection is secluded, and the people Jin Chen arranged mainly acted cautiously, fighting while leading them to retreat toward the alley entrance, without attracting much attention.

Whenever Du Ruosong's people showed any sign of wanting to draw their guns, those few people would use extremely tricky methods to knock the guns from their hands, then hold the guns upside down to threaten them.

Half an hour passed quickly.

Du Ruosong's people not only failed to complete the mission, but were all tied up with ropes; when ELF's vehicle stopped at the street intersection, the black-clad individuals threw them out from the alley, dropping them at Du Ruosong's feet.

"Save me……Du brother! Save me!"

Those few people cried out while shouting.

Meng Fuchi got out of the car, looked dubiously at Du Ruosong, and said, "Who are they?"
