It had been a bit creepy for Chu’s mother to say that, even though it was my mother who was talking about it.
The sound from behind me startled me and I turned around to see that it was Chu Xiaoxiao who had returned with the doctor.
“Why do you look so pale?” Chu Xiaoxiao asked.
I shook my head, I couldn’t tell Chu Xiaoxiao about what I had just said, she would definitely be more worried about her mother.
The doctor gestured for us to go out first, he was going to examine Chu’s mother.
This sanatorium was in high cla*s condition with resident doctors, but it was not cheap either, only the rich could afford to stay.
It looked like Chu Huaien hadn’t lost money financially to his wife.
We waited outside the door, both of us nervous, but Chu and I were not worried about the same thing.
Chu Xiaoxiao was worried about her mother’s health, while I was thinking about what Chu’s mother had said.
If what Chu’s mum said wasn’t nonsense ……
Then how is it possible, there can’t be ghosts in the world at all.
“Miss Chu ……”
Chu Xiaoxiao and I looked up at the same time, the doctor had finished his examination pushed out the door and was taking off his gloves.
“How is my mother?”
“You don’t need to worry too much, this disease is all about memory confusion. The human brain is extremely complex, and a highly intelligent human like your mother is more prone to mental problems. Don’t worry, there are no other physical problems with her, just don’t get any new stimuli.”
Chu Xiaoxiao let out a long sigh and said, “Doctor, I’ll see you off.”
I also let out a long sigh of relief, but was a little disappointed again.
Luckily it was just the ravings of a madman and not real, otherwise it would have been horrible.
Chu said the doctor told us not to bother her mother anymore, that she needed to rest.
In fact I really felt a bit disappointed, if Chu Xiaoxiao’s mum hadn’t gone crazy, maybe she could have told me a lot of things.
The two of us had long since lost interest in doing that. We wandered around the garden of the sanatorium and came across an old acquaintance, and only when I saw him did it dawn on me why Jiang Kai had fallen on his heels when he tried to splash Chu’s mother with hot water earlier.
“Baldy!” Chu Xiaoxiao shouted Baldy’s name from afar.
Baldy was pushing Xing’er’s wheelchair. Xing’er also saw me and waved desperately towards me.
Chu Xiaoxiao was nosy and asked me who was in the wheelchair Baldy was pushing.
“His little sister.”
Chu Xiaoxiao gave a giggle, “I don’t believe it. Look at the way Baldy is looking at her, tsk tsk, I don’t believe it if the two of them aren’t having an affair. By the way, why is this girl wearing the same hat as Baldy? It’s a couple’s hat.”
“You’re so nosy.” I pinched her face and told her about Apricot and Baldy.
“My God, Xing’er’s family is so mean-spirited, how can they leave her alone with just one daughter?”
“I don’t know, everyone in the jianghu world is too secretive to go into details. That’s why Baldy sold his life to Zhao Zichen, because Zhao Zichen saved Xing’er’s life. And the one who has been protecting you, Ah Yu, is Xing’er’s brother, and the two siblings fled their division behind their backs.”
“It’s really strange, why is the Jianghu so weird, can’t a family just get along like normal people? Why do they have to fight and kill each other, making the family unsettled.”
Xing’er and Baldy had reached us and I nodded my thanks to Baldy, who was still the same as before, trying not to speak when he could, as if his mouth was long and ornamental.
Xing’er was happy, “Brother Zhang Chao, what are you doing here? This such a pretty sister must be brother Zhang Chao’s girlfriend.”
“You have such a sweet mouth, just call me Chu Xiaoxiao.”
Chu Xiaoxiao was already cheerful and loved to make friends, so she and Xing’er chatted well. Baldy was still tight-faced just now, but when he saw that Xing’er was happy, he also relaxed.
Baldy told me that Xing’er was about to have an operation and that Zhao Zichen had hired the best heart transplant specialist in China and that the operation would take place at the Union Hospital in Beijing.
But the operation was still risky, and now Xing’er had to prepare for the operation to get her body in the best condition possible.
“Brother Zhang Chao, didn’t you give me and my brother three million dollars? It’s just as well that we recently had to take it out to pay for the operation, if it wasn’t for you I would be dead.”
I laughed, “No need to thank me, this is your brother’s and your hard earned money.”
Apricot is indeed very good at her craft, and if she can be my helper when she gets better, a lot of things will become a lot easier.
It didn’t seem right for me to interrupt Baldy and Xing’er’s time together here, so after a few words of casual conversation, Chu Xiaoxiao and I found an excuse to say goodbye.
The two of us had just driven away from the entrance of the sanatorium when Meng Meng’s phone call came.
“Boss, it’s back for real, why bother going out with a gun.”
“What? To who?”
“Richard Jiang, who else could it be? This teacher is really crazy, he didn’t run away from his own crime, instead he’s taking care of someone else’s injustice, does he think he’s Batman? Should we close the net?”
“Tell Cai Xiaobing to get ready.”
“Yes!”
“Hear me out, tell Xiao Cai not to bring anything, go to Jiang Kai’s house by himself and stop He Bi.”
“What?”
“Just do as you’re told.”
Monk was confused, but I didn’t have time to explain it to him anymore.
Seeing how nervous I was on the phone, Chu Xiaoxiao asked, “What’s wrong?”
“There’s a teacher named He, who is quite nice. Richard Jiang is the parent of a student in his cla*s, and I told you about this. This teacher is actually a gun dealer, and we’ve had our eyes on him for a long time. The last time we went to his house to feel him out, he was already alerted.”
Chu Xiaoxiao said, “So he ran away?”
I said, “He just didn’t. Hey, this teacher is really nice, he stayed not because he was mad, but actually because he couldn’t let go of Jiang Yang. We’ve only beaten up Richard Jiang for how long, how come this grandson has messed with He Bi again so quickly?”
It had only been four hours since we had beaten up Jiang Kai, and Jiang Kai had just been working at the sanatorium, so how come he had gone home and gotten into trouble again?
Chu Xiaoxiao could not help but say, “Then ……”
I continued, “Just now, my people told me that He Bei brought a gun to find Jiang Kai, this time it looks like it’s not a test, it’s probably for real, he wants to kill Jiang Kai. Jiang Yang’s mother refused to get a divorce, and Jiang Kai was scared by my beating last time, so he went home and dropped Jiang Yang out of school, and said he was going to take his family out of Tong City.”
“That’s really not a thing. But is it hard for He Bi to go and kill someone? Why didn’t he run?”
I cried and laughed, my girlfriend was really an idiot, just now she was worried for me that he would run away, and now she had another idea altogether, just worried that He Bi wouldn’t get away.
“You can’t run away, once he does, our men will close the net immediately. But it’s not him I want, it’s the man behind him, he’s just a little peddler. But his identity is crucial, he connects the underlings to this mysterious crime syndicate. We won’t get much use out of catching him, the man has the goods in hand, but not much information at his disposal. It’s just the mysterious organisation behind him that we’re really interested in.”
Chu Xiaoxiao said anxiously, “But if he doesn’t run he’ll have to go to jail, you guys will definitely be caught and put in jail, why is he so stupid?!”
