“Jiangdu City to be free from conflicts…”
Su Jiang repeated Director Zheng’s words softly, feeling somewhat surprised.
He didn’t expect that the man in front of him, with a stubbled face, would be so determined.
What had he experienced to walk down this unwavering path?
Then, Su Jiang curiously asked:
“Since you want Jiangdu City to be free from the underworld, why cooperate with the An family?”
“As I said earlier, the An family is not considered part of the underworld in my eyes.”
Director Zheng’s lips curved slightly, “In my heart, there’s a difference.”
“So, the Feng family and the Lin family, you must eradicate them?”
“Yes, that’s the basis of our cooperation!”
He settled back into his chair, lit a cigarette, and leisurely took a puff.
“This time I help you deal with the Feng family, and in return, you help me deal with the Lin family.”
“For the An family, this is undoubtedly advantageous, isn’t it?”
Su Jiang didn’t answer; he couldn’t care less about this matter. Dealing with the Feng family was partly because of An Rou and partly due to the overall mission.
Regarding Director Zheng’s request for cooperation in dealing with the Lin family, Su Jiang just thought:
“What’s it got to do with me?”
“You and An Mingjie can decide who to fight. I’m only going after the Feng family!”
“Once we defeat the Feng family and complete the overall mission, you can deal with whoever you want. I couldn’t care less.”
“Just leave An Rou out of it.”
The immediate priority is to sort out the Inspectorate’s situation. Otherwise, all talk of cooperation is nonsense.
Given the current situation at the Inspectorate, how can you have An Mingjie cooperate with that bunch of useless people?
When the real battle starts and the bullets start flying, if he says he’s feeling depressed and wants to leave, what will you do?
So, resolving the current mess within the Inspectorate is the top priority.
“Old… Uh, I mean, Director Zheng.”
Su Jiang quickly realized his slip of the tongue and corrected himself, while also glancing at Director Zheng’s expression.
Fortunately, he didn’t seem to notice, or perhaps he didn’t mind being called “Old Zheng.”
“In that case, should I proceed with dealing with those people at the Inspectorate according to our original plan?”
“Yes, you don’t need to worry about Yang Ming; he’s not necessary.”
“Got it. So, basically, everyone except Yang Ming is just freeloading.”
Su Jiang nodded and then asked Director Zheng with a mischievous tone, “Director Zheng, what would you do if in the end, the Inspectorate was reduced to just you and Yang Ming?”
Director Zheng remained silent, not answering Su Jiang.
Knock, knock, knock!
“Su Jiang, everything’s ready.”
The voice of Li Cai came from outside the door, indicating that the explosives and detonators had been installed.
Upon hearing this, Su Jiang stood up, walked over, and extended a hand to Director Zheng with a cheerful smile.
Director Zheng glanced up, then took out a stack of papers from the drawer, filled with numerous names.
“All the information of the Inspectorate’s personnel is here.”
Su Jiang took the list, glanced at it, and nodded. It wasn’t a long list, so Li Cai should be able to handle it overnight.
“Alright, I’ll leave now. See you tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow? Why are you coming tomorrow?”
“I’m coming to work. I’m the psychologist here, remember?”
Su Jiang walked to the door, looking at Director Zheng curiously, “I just completed the employment procedures today, so now I’m also a member of your Inspectorate, right?”
“We’re all one big family now.”
“Moreover, if I come tomorrow, it might help reduce suspicion, isn’t it?”
Director Zheng’s mouth twitched at the words. He felt that Su Jiang’s employment was not a simple matter for the Inspectorate.
“Hurry up and leave!”
With a hint of impatience, Director Zheng waved Su Jiang away, already planning his next move.
He must find an opportunity to get rid of Su Jiang.
This guy is too mysterious.
…
Su Jiang and Li Cai returned to the car. Su Jiang fastened his seatbelt, turned to look at Li Cai, and said seriously:
“Old Li, this mission is extremely challenging, it involves the life and death of the An family.”
“I don’t trust anyone else except you, so you must assist me in this operation.”
“All of this is for the sake of the An family!”
Li Cai’s mouth twitched, completely ignoring Su Jiang’s persuasive words, and gritted his teeth, “So… what do you want me to do?”
Su Jiang immediately handed the list given by Director Zheng to Li Cai, and at the same time, passed over a bunch of papers he had just written in the car.
“What’s this?”
“The list of all Inspectorate personnel.”
“And this?”
“What I just wrote, threatening letters.”
Li Cai’s eye twitched as he looked at the stack of papers Su Jiang handed over, with crooked handwriting on them that read a sentence:
“I’ll kill you in three days!”
Flipping through a few more, all the content was somewhat similar.
“I’ll kill you in two days!”
“Kill you tonight!”
“Blowing you up tomorrow morning!”
“…”
“Kill you!”
Li Cai was speechless. You call this a threatening letter?
“Tonight, you’re going to run a trip to send out these threatening letters, ensuring they wake up to them tomorrow morning.”
“Do you think I’m a magic key? How can I deliver them to their homes?”
“You can fold paper planes and throw them through the windows.”
“Screw that!”
Li Cai was getting a bit frantic. He hadn’t slept for days, and now he had to work overtime today.
Moreover, the workload was extensive, and he couldn’t handle it alone; he needed help.
Suddenly, he looked at Su Jiang with an unfriendly look, “What are you doing tonight?”
“I’m going back to sleep.”
Su Jiang replied matter-of-factly, “I have to work tomorrow. I’m the Inspectorate’s psychologist now; I’ll get a pay cut if I’m late.”
Upon hearing this, Li Cai felt unwilling.
“No, you must help me send out these threatening letters tonight!”
“…Stop messing around. I’m a student; it’s not appropriate for me to send this stuff.”
“Do I give a damn that you’re a student?”
“Fine, then. I have an early class the day after tomorrow. It’s the last session of this semester, and the teacher will go over key points.”
“Damn it!”
Li Cai held his head in agony. He realized he couldn’t reason with Su Jiang; this guy was out of his mind.
They were discussing blowing up the Inspectorate, and he tells me he has to go back to school to review key points in two days?
Can you have a more coherent thought process?
Unable to bear it any longer, Li Cai opened the car door and kicked Su Jiang out.
“Why did you do that?”
Click! Li Cai quickly locked the door, fiercely saying, “I’m going to send those threatening letters. You can walk back on your own!”
With that, Li Cai stepped on the gas, leaving Su Jiang standing there dumbfounded.
“Damn it!”
Feeling helpless, Su Jiang decided to hail a cab back home.
But it was late at night, making it challenging to find a ride. So, Su Jiang stood on the roadside, took out his phone, and sent a message to An Rou.
Su Jiang: “Li Cai left me alone on the roadside (pitiful).”
An Rou: “How could he do that!”
Su Jiang: “Well, it’s okay. I can’t blame him; he’s busy, and I understand.”
Su Jiang: “I’ll just hail a cab back home. It’s late, and I’m not sure if I can find one.”
Su Jiang: “Don’t worry about me. It’s a bit cold outside now. I’ll message you when I get home.”
An Rou: “Where are you? I’ll ask Azuo and Ama to drive to your location.”
Su Jiang: “Oh, no need, it’s too much trouble.”
Su Jiang: “【Location】”
Su Jiang: “Then I’ll wait here (being obedient).”
An Rou: “Okay, I’ll ask them to come get you quickly.”
With a smile on his lips, Su Jiang finished sending the message, pocketed his phone, leaned against the roadside, and lit a cigarette he had just obtained from Director Zheng.
With disdain, he watched Li Cai’s departure. Such a narrow-minded guy.
Don’t forget, I’m your young lady’s friend.
Do I still need to take a ride in your car?
