Hong Kong Comprehensive: Who said that those who practice martial arts have no money?

Chapter 169 Jiachen, knowing the interests

Li quietly watched the young man's back disappear at the end of the alley.

"Aren't you going to follow?"

After finally making the discovery, Li Jianjun was a little puzzled when he saw that Li An didn't seem to be in a hurry to follow.

Li An didn't explain much, just shook his head:
  "Uncle Jun, you have been watching all night, go back and rest first, and leave the rest to me."

"Okay, then pay attention to yourself."

Li Jianjun didn't ask any more questions and nodded in agreement.

With Ang Lee's skill and carrying a gun, there would be no danger even if he encountered someone from the killer organization.

So Li Jianjun only hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.

After standing there and pondering for a while, Li An walked slowly towards the end of the alley.

At this time, the crowd of onlookers dispersed a lot. When Li An passed by, he patronized the Bo Zai Cake Shop, and residents who knew Yang Zhuluan were discussing collecting his body.

You must know that in addition to vendettas, some Taoist friends in the city will inevitably die of overdose.

Even if the walled city was in chaos, it would not allow corpses to stink in the alleys.

Usually someone they know or a neighbor nearby will help to simply collect the body and carry it to the back hill for burial.

Orchid Electrical Development Shop.

"Well, this business is getting harder and harder to do."

There were no customers in the store at this time, and Diao Lan sat on the chair bored, looking at the door of the store from time to time.

As soon as the young man entered the door, Diao Lan stood up and walked over.

"Jiachen, where have you been?"

Jiachen calmly shook his head and smiled:
  "There were no customers in the store this morning. I didn't see much help, so I went out to take a walk and get some fresh air."

"Last night, Ya Lao's uncle was killed by people from the organization. Although they said that Mr. Tiangan is dead, there is still Mr. Earthly Branches.

There must be people from the organization in the walled city. If they find out, they will inevitably come looking for him. "

Diao Lan approached Jiachen and said seriously.

Jiachen nodded.

"I know."

Diao Lan looked around the outside of the store and whispered:

"Don't go out for the next two days, just stay in the store. You should know that the organization has never been soft on traitors.

We escaped from the organization for many years and now we are finally able to live a peaceful life.

I don’t want to go back to what I was like before, like a rat living in the ditch, completing the organization’s tasks indifferently, with blood on my hands. "

Diao Lan couldn't hide the worry in her tone.

"Xin Wei, don't worry, I will never let this happen again!"

Jiachen looked solemn.

For him who loves Diao Lan wholeheartedly, he doesn't want anything to happen to Diao Lan again.

After discovering that Diao Lan had a heart disease and could no longer fight with others, he planned a plan for the two of them to escape from the organization.

But in the end, an accident happened, and he was discovered by the organization the night he escaped.

In order for Diao Lan to leave the organization smoothly, he had to agree to the organization's conditions and let the organization let Diao Lan live.

While he was still working hard for the organization, Jiachen kept this secret from Diao Lan.

In his opinion, nothing in this world is important. What is important is that Diao Lan can survive, then everything he has done is worth it.

Even if he loses his own life, Jiachen is willing to do so.

"Actually, it's not just me. I hope you will also forget everything you have ever done in the organization and start a new life like a normal person."

It seems ridiculous to live a normal life.

But for killers like Diao Lan, who have been trained by the killer organization since childhood and have served the organization all their lives, such ridiculous requirements are often their extravagant hope.

"Most definitely."

Jiachen's eyes were firm and he murmured.

"Sorry to interrupt your chat."

Li An said softly at the door.

"Li An."

Only then did Diao Lan notice Li An standing at the door.

Jiachen's expression changed slightly, and he regained his composure in an instant. He turned around and looked at the young man who entered the door.

Diao Lan calmed down her emotions and asked with a smile:

"Are you here to find Boxer? Boxer is not renting a house. His sister's dance hall is opening today, so he went over to help."

"No, I'll come over and wash my hair."

As he spoke, Li An turned his eyes and focused on Jia Chen.

"Mrs. Boss, this is..."

"Oh, my best friend since childhood, named Jay Chen, came to the Walled City to play for a few days."

Diao Lan explained casually.

As if to divert Li An's attention, Diao Lan hurriedly stepped forward and greeted warmly:
  "Come on, sit down."

Li An walked to the mirror, pulled out a chair and sat down.

Diao Lan quickly tied the scarf on Li An, poured shampoo on Li An's head, kneaded it into lather, and rubbed it gently.

Li An looked at Jia Chen through the mirror and said intentionally or unintentionally:

"Diao Lan, what does this friend of yours do?"

Diao Lan was stunned for a moment and said vaguely:

"Oh, he doesn't have a job yet, so he came to the walled city to relax."

"is it?"

Li An's eyes lit up and he said enthusiastically:

"That's just right. It just so happens that my store will open in the next two days and I'm still recruiting people. It's okay to let them work in my store."

"this."

The expression on Diao Lan's face stiffened, and the hand rubbing her hair couldn't help but stop.

She looked back at Jiachen and smiled a little reluctantly.

"Thank you for your kindness. He is just coming to the Walled City to relax. He won't stay long. He will leave the Walled City in two days."

"Work is the same everywhere.

Diao Lan, don't worry, you and Boxer are friends, so I won't treat your friend badly, and the salary will definitely not be lower than the salary outside. "

Ang Lee gave it a thumbs up.

Diao Lan hesitated and said, "You have to ask Jay Chen what he means."

"Of course."

Li An nodded in agreement.

The conversation immediately changed:
  “But it’s hard to find a job now. Many bosses only care about exploitation when it comes to treating their employees, and they drag their feet when it comes time to pay salaries.

I'm different. I'm very kind to my employees and I don't deduct wages.

You can go to my store to have a look first. I believe that as long as you have seen it, your friend will definitely not refuse. "

As he spoke, Li An looked at Jiachen through the mirror.

"You are right, Mr. Chen!"

Li An placed the emphasis on the three words Mr. Chen, which is meaningful.

Jiachen's eyes condensed and instantly became sharp.

Diao Lan's expression also changed. Just when she was about to speak, Jia Chen said first:
  "Mr. Li is right, it's the same no matter where you work. How about I go to your store after it opens in two days and give you an answer?"

"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. I think today will be pretty good."

Li An interrupted Jia Chen, with an expression on his face that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

"I'm a person who always does things vigorously and resolutely. After washing your hair later, you can follow me to the store and have a look at it. Let's talk about whether you agree or not."

".Can."

Jiachen pondered for a while and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Diao Lan seemed to want to say something more, Jiachen shook his head at her.

Li An smiled at Diao Lan:
  "Houselady, you've washed for long enough. Just rinse the foam off your head and blow on it."

"Oh well."

"Mr. Chen, let's go."

Li An walked out of the hair salon refreshed.

Jiachen nodded to Diao Lan, gave her a reassuring look, and followed him.

When he reached the alley, Li An did not go to Longjin Road, but turned right into another alley. The two of them walked around the alley. Jiachen paused and looked at Li An in front of him. He couldn't help but ask:

"Mr. Li, is your store so remote?"

There was not a single pedestrian on the alley at this time, and it seemed very quiet.

Li An finally stopped and turned to look at Jiachen.

"Tell me, where are the Earthly Branches?"

"What earthly branch?"

Jiachen looked at Li An in confusion, and the confusion on his face didn't look like he was pretending.

Li An narrowed his eyes and said slowly:

"Heavenly stems, earthly branches, and Jiachen, do you want me to explain them more clearly?"

Jiachen was stunned and shocked inside.

But he quickly came to his senses and shook his head quietly.

"I don't even know what you are talking about about the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches."

But before he finished speaking, a strong wind came over him, and the majestic pressure made him subconsciously widen his eyes.

Before he could react, there was a pain in his chest, and his body flew out involuntarily, and then fell to the ground with a plop.

"Cough cough."

Jiachen fell to the ground, his chest so tight that he coughed twice uncontrollably.

Looking at Li An walking slowly over, Jiachen's Adam's apple rolled up and down.

Li An was at least three or four steps away from him just now. Even he, a killer second only to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, didn't see Li An's movements clearly.

Jiachen was still lucky and pretended to be innocent.

He asked with an annoyed look on his face, covering his chest.

"what are you doing?"

Li An came over, looked at Jiachen condescendingly, and said coldly:
  "By the way, there is another Xin Wei, that is, Diao Lan. Am I clear enough now?"

Panic flashed across Jiachen's face.

He struggled to stand up:

"Xin Wei and I have been away from the killer organization for many years. I don't know the situation of the organization at all."

Li An raised his eyebrows:
  "I don't have much patience. If you continue to act stupid with me, I won't mind killing you.

Besides, there is a reason why I came to you this time instead of going to Diao Lan.

But you also need to be clear. It doesn’t mean that without you, I won’t be able to find the earthly branches.

As long as he continues to stay in the walled city, it will only take two more days to find something to do. "

As he spoke, Li An punched him hard!
  Jiachen subconsciously dodged and retreated, but still couldn't dodge and was punched hard in the chest by Li An!

He couldn't help but groan in pain and hunched into a ball on the ground.

Jiachen looked up at Li An and spoke with difficulty:
  "What do you want to know?"

"What were you doing in the alley earlier?"

"Di Zhi asked me to check on Yang Zhuluan's condition."

Li An squatted down and asked, "Where are the Earthly Branches?"

Jiachen shook his head: "I don't know?"

"Huh?" Li An frowned.

"I really didn't lie to you. It's usually the Earthly Branches who take the initiative to contact me and issue tasks."

Jiachen said truthfully.

Li An was not too surprised.

It is normal for members of the killer organization not to know the whereabouts of their superiors.

He thought for a moment and said:

"It doesn't matter if you don't know. Just help me lure him out."

Hearing this, Jiachen fell silent.

Li An narrowed his eyes:
  "What, you don't want to? Or are you saying that Earthly Branch is threatening you with Diao Lan?"

Jiachen's pupils contracted.

"Looks like I guessed right."

Li An saw his expression and laughed out loud.

Then he said slowly:

"Once Yang Zhuluan dies, only Dizhi will be left in your killer organization. As long as the Dizhi killer organization is eliminated in name only, you and Diao Lan will be free.

Don’t you want to leave the killer organization? Diao Lan is no longer threatened by the killer organization?

Do yourself a favor and take advantage of this opportunity. "

Perhaps the words to let Diao Lan no longer be threatened by the organization hit his weakness.

After being silent for a while, Jiachen finally spoke:
  "What do you want me to do?"

into the night.

Li An, who changed into a formal suit, finally arrived belatedly.

When the dance hall opens, of course people come to support it in the evening.

Entering the ballroom, Li An couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

At a glance, there are bright lights and colorful lights. There is a red carpet on the ground. Under the swirling colorful light, four sexy dancers on the stage twist their waists.

On the first day of opening, there were not many customers, but judging from their suits and leather shoes, most of the customers should be small factory owners in the walled city.

There were waiters in small suits serving drinks to the guests.

The scene looks pretty good.

Li An looked around. Boxer was sitting alone at a table in the corner, looking out of place compared to the guests off the stage.

He walked up to Boxer, sat down next to him, picked up the unknown foreign wine on the table and filled it for himself.

Li Ancai smiled and joked:

"Diao Lan said you came to the ballroom early in the morning to help. I thought you were working as a waiter here? Delivering drinks to the guests?"

Boxer glanced sideways at him and slowly shook his head.

"Stop joking, there are so many waiters here, why do they need my help?"

Li An chuckled and got down to business:
  "How's the discussion about the welfare association going?"

"Duan Zhejiang is dead, and the welfare association will be established after Duan Yingfeng handles Duan Zhejiang's funeral affairs."

Boxer's expression was complicated.

Although Duan Zhejiang was coerced by Yang Zhuluan fifteen years ago, he was also the murderer who forced his parents to death.

The hatred of parents is greater than heaven.

Although Duan Yingfeng was caught in the middle, which made him a little entangled, as a child, he must take revenge.

Duan Zhejiang died of a tiger climbing the mountain and was killed by Yang Zhuluan. He felt deeply disappointed but also vaguely relieved.

After gathering his thoughts for a moment, Boxer continued:
  "However, I have discussed it with Taipo, Bi De, and Diao Lan, and everyone is willing to support us. This way, we will have someone to help us in the early stage, and they are also willing to help us contact the neighbors near Longjin Road."

When it comes to the welfare association, Boxer is very interested.

Except for Li An occasionally making suggestions, the rest of the chat was all done by Boxer. He just listened quietly and took a sip of his drink from time to time.

In just two glasses of wine, the clicking sound of high heels came from far to near.

Huaman walked forward with a cheerful face and showed a sweet smile to Li An.

"I thought you wouldn't come?"

Li An stood up and said seriously:

"Your ballroom is opening today, so I naturally have to dress up and dress more formally."

Huaman didn't say anything, but the corners of her mouth were raised, obviously it was useful.

She pursed her lips without leaving a trace, tilted her head and looked at Li An.

Wearing a straight suit, with deep eyes, a straight nose, a full and round mouth, and slightly raised eyebrows, he looks really eye-catching.

More and more pleasing to the eye.

"By the way, this is for you."

Li An took out a red packet from his pocket and handed it over, saying:

"Business is booming!"

"Thank you."

The woman took it and said softly.
