Chapter 995 Good News and Borrowing (two chapters in one)
On the edge of the city, a bus parked quietly on the side of the road.
Two figures got off the bus. They looked at the sunset that was about to be obscured by dark clouds, with worried expressions on their faces.
"Manager Qin, it's going to get dark soon, and looking at the weather, it's very likely to rain." The bus driver said.
"Alas..." Qin Zhi sighed slowly upon hearing this, "I hope they are safe and sound."
"Huh..."
The wind blew harder and harder, and the surrounding plants were swayed violently by the wind. The noisy sound floated in the air all the time.
"Manager Qin, it's them, they're back safely...!!!" The bus driver saw a group of people appearing in the distance, and when he saw their appearance clearly, he shouted in surprise.
"Great." The worried expression on Qin Zhi's face disappeared, and now he was eager to know the exploration results.
"It's Manager Qin and the others." At this time, Wu Kui and his party also saw Qin Zhi and the bus driver who had been waiting for a long time. The joy of surviving the disaster made everyone happy.
After a while, when everyone entered the safe zone and stepped on the flat road, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Several exotic beast hunters relaxed their tense nerves and sat on the ground all of a sudden, or even worse, lay directly on the ground.
“Phew…”
“It’s finally safe.”
“I’m exhausted.”
"I'm going to have a good rest for a while."
Although Qin Zhi was anxious to ask about the exploration results, he was not stupid. Looking at the tired people, he first stepped forward to express condolences, especially to The injured Chen Jiaquan was extremely concerned.
Prospector Master Wang and Qin Zhi finished condolences to the exotic beast hunters, and then stepped forward with smiles on their faces to report today's exploration results.
"There really are psychic mineral veins there, that's great..." Qin Zhi said with great excitement after hearing the exploration results.
"The company will not treat you badly. The celebration banquet has been prepared for everyone. Now we will return immediately."
The smiles on everyone's faces that were originally beaming immediately faded after hearing this.
"Why are you suddenly unhappy?" Qin Zhi's ability to detect words and emotions was far beyond ordinary people, and he immediately noticed something was wrong with the expression of the alien hunter.
Then he felt something and quickly counted the number of people present.
“Oops, one person is missing.”
The smile on Qin Zhi’s face disappeared, and then he asked in a serious tone, “Why is Mr. Lin not here? What happened?”
"We encountered a second-level high-level purple-ringed snake on the way back. In order to protect us..." A strange beast hunter told Qin Zhi what happened.
"Second-level high-level purple-ringed snake!!!" Qin Zhi was shocked and immediately concluded that Lin Li had died.
"..." Everyone at the scene was silent, and the original festive atmosphere disappeared.
"Brother Lin is very strong and will definitely come back safe and sound." Wu Kui was uneasy in his heart, but he was very determined that Lin Li could come back from the wilderness alive.
Qin Zhi looked at Wu Kui in surprise. He knew that at the beginning, this man had strong objections to Lin Li joining the team, but now he said such things.
"Huh..."
The wind at the scene became stronger and stronger, and the signs of rain became more obvious.
Qin Zhi wanted everyone to take a bus back to the city at this time, but he couldn't say anything.
The bus driver on the side glanced at the exotic beast hunter who wanted to continue waiting for Lin Li's return. He raised his hand and scratched the back of his head.
At this moment, from the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a figure walking quickly towards the safe zone in the distance.
"Everyone, is that person Brother Lin?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and then turned their heads in unison and looked in the direction pointed by the bus driver's finger.
In the endless wilderness, a young man wearing camouflage uniforms was walking alone.
"It's really Brother Lin!!!" Everyone present couldn't help but exclaimed, and the dull atmosphere disappeared instantly.
Lin Li arrived at the safe zone and was immediately surrounded by everyone. All the exotic beast hunters asked him if he was injured.
"I'm not injured, so you don't have to worry." Lin Li said with a smile.
"Brother Lin, how did you get rid of that purple-ringed snake?" someone asked curiously.
It cooled down quickly, so there was no way to get rid of the entanglement... Lin Li muttered in his heart, and then responded casually to everyone.
"After you left, the alien beast was injured by my fireball, and its strength dropped sharply. After a few more rounds of fighting, it must have known that it couldn't kill me, so it left."
"Brother Lin, you can fight against a second-level high-level alien beast alone and injure it, and in the end you are safe and sound. You are so powerful." Many alien beast hunters said with admiration.
"It's just a fluke." Lin Li said modestly.
After a while, the weather became worse and worse. Everyone got on the bus and started to return to the city.
…………
“Ha~”
In the black car parked on the roadside, a yawn sounded.
Gao Qiang stayed on guard for a whole day and did not see the bus return. He couldn't help but wonder if the target died in the wilderness.
“They are back?”
A bus appeared in the rearview mirror of the car, and Gao Qiang suddenly became energetic when he yawned.
He stared at the bus that appeared and saw it entering the park. He then opened the door and got off the bus. He came to the tree on the side of the road and stood on tiptoe to look at the parking lot not far away.
Under Gao Qiang's gaze, after the bus entered the parking lot and stopped, the door opened, and figures got out of the bus talking and laughing.
"The target is still alive."
When Lin Li appeared, Gao Qiang's face became very serious, and he couldn't help but murmured, "He is still alive. Now I can't even think about resting."
In the parking lot, Wu Kui saw Lin Li preparing to leave and asked, "Brother Lin, are you really not going to follow?" Let’s go to the celebration banquet together?”
Lin Li shook his head, “I still have things to deal with, so I won’t attend the celebration banquet. You guys have fun...”
“Okay! "Wu Kui nodded, "Then go and do your work, and we'll contact you later."
After this experience, the two of them just added each other as friends on the bus and can meet each other at any time afterwards.
Lin Li walked towards the parking place. He had not seen him for several hours. Many leaves had fallen on the silver-white van.
"Autumn! The season of fallen leaves."
Lin Li reached out and swept away the fallen leaves from the car, then opened the door and got in the car. After fastening his seat belt, he started the car and left. PARKING LOT.
As for the celebration banquet, Lin Li, who liked quietness, didn't want to join in the fun. He happened to check his phone on the way back and saw the message for help sent by Su Yue, so he had an excuse to shirk it.
The cars of other exotic beast hunters are usually off-road vehicles. When the off-road vehicles leave the parking lot one by one and drive quickly on the road, the silver-white bread follows them, which looks very abrupt.
Under the tree on the roadside, Gao Qiang stared at Lin Li's leaving back with an ugly expression, and then he reached out and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
…………
In the yard of a villa, there is a stooped old man with his hands behind his back, looking at the big tree not far away that has been blown by the wind and has fallen leaves. .
"Drip bell bell..."
Suddenly, a cell phone rang. Qin Liuhe, who was thinking about something, stopped his divergent thoughts and reached out to take out his cell phone from his pocket.
When he saw that the caller was Gao Qiang, he frowned.
"Mr. Qin." Gao Qiang greeted him respectfully. "How is the situation?" Qin Liuhe asked.
"The target is still alive." Gao Qiang said in a low tone.
"..." When Qin Liuhe heard this, he stood up straighter and his eyes narrowed.
"Mr. Qin, do you need me to do anything next?"
"You come back first."
"Huh?" Gao Qiang originally thought Qin Liuhe knew the target If he is still alive, he will continue to arrange for him to monitor the other party. Now that he heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"You go home and rest first." Qin Liuhe said.
"Yes." Gao Qiang responded before hanging up the phone.
"Strange, now that the target is still alive, shouldn't I be allowed to continue to monitor him? What is Mr. Qin thinking?"
The confused Gao Qiang muttered, he After thinking for a moment, he couldn't figure out what Qin Liuhe's next plan was.
Then he put this matter aside and drove the car to find his lover whom he had not seen for many days.
"Huh..." Qin Liuhe took a deep breath and then exhaled.
"Cao Yi is dead, and the target came back from the wilderness safe and sound. Is there any connection between the two?"
Qin Liuhe secretly guessed that Cao Yi was killed by Lin Li. This idea just popped up, He was immediately denied.
"With Cao Yi's strength, even if he cannot kill the target, it is not difficult to escape. It should be other reasons that caused him to die in the wilderness."
Qin Liuhe's expression kept changing, his mind The ideas in it come one after another.
After a long time, the sky turned completely dark. Qin Liuhe left the yard and walked towards the study.
…………
“Click.”
In the quiet study, Qin Liuhe opened the alloy safe again.
This time he took out a notepad from the alloy safe. After opening it, he could see that there were many phone numbers written on the notepad.
Qin Liuhe came to the desk and sat down, flipped through the notepad, then picked up the phone and called the number on the notepad.
"Beep beep..."
It took a long time after the call was dialed before the person on the other side answered.
"Old Qin, why are you calling me?"
A deep voice came from the mobile phone. Qin Liuhe greeted the other party for a few words, and then explained his purpose in a concise and concise manner.
“I want to ask you a favor.”
"Hey, you guys never ask for help. What trouble have you encountered?"
"Just say whether you want to help or not!"
"It's rare for you to ask me for help. Between the two of us, friendship, I will definitely help you... say Well, what do you want me to help you with?"
"Lend me the spiritual weapon you have..."
"Okay, I will arrange it later. The spiritual weapon is delivered to you.”
After ending the call, Qin Liuhe turned his head and looked out the window, his eyes falling on the street lamp in the distance.
Cao Yi's death left Qin Liuhe with a knot in his throat. This matter must be investigated clearly in the future.
Killing Lin Li is the first thing to do now. He just borrowed the spiritual weapon from his old friend just to get rid of Lin Li as soon as possible.
"Even if you don't go to the wilderness next, I can kill you quietly."
"Cao Yi, I will investigate your matter clearly and will not let you Die in vain.”
In the quiet study, Qin Liuhe murmured to himself, his cold tone sending chills down the spine.
…………
In Xingfu Garden Community, the elevator door opened. Lin Li walked out of the elevator and came to the door.
Because he had many experiences, he easily found the door key from under the flowerpot at the door and opened the door quickly.
“Huh…”
The wind outside the window became louder and louder, and the trees in the community swayed and shed many leaves.
Lin Li came to Su Yue's house and walked straight to the balcony. On the balcony, he saw clothes of different colors hanging to dry at a glance.
Raised his hand to put away Su Yue's clothes that were hanging to dry on the balcony, and put them on the sofa in the living room.
After finishing, Lin Li took a photo of the clothes on the sofa and sent it to Su Yue.
“Ding dong.”
Within a few seconds, Su Yue, who was in school for a meeting about holding the autumn sports meeting, saw the message from Lin Li, her pretty face showed a smile, and she quickly replied.
"Thank you!"
The weather outside is getting worse and worse, and it will rain soon. If Lin Li hadn't collected Su Yue's clothes, all the clothes on the balcony would have been gone. Disaster.
"I picked up a lot of snails today. I'll put some of them in the kitchen for you later. You can watch and deal with them when you come back."
Lin Lizhi was about to leave when he suddenly thought of today I picked up a large bucket of snails in the wilderness and told Su Yue.
"Aren't you going to the wilderness to hunt exotic animals? How come you still have time to pick up snails?" Su Yue couldn't help but be stunned after reading the message from Lin Li, and then asked in great surprise.
"What are you saying? Who stipulated that you can't pick up snails when hunting exotic animals in the wilderness?" Lin Li asked with a smile.
"Uh..." Su Yue was suddenly speechless, because as Lin Li said, there is no rule against doing other things when hunting exotic animals in the wilderness.
But then I thought about it, although I could do anything in such a dangerous place, it seems that so far, no exotic animal hunter has been picking up snails as leisurely as Lin Li.
“There are plenty of snails in the vegetable market. If you want to eat snails, just go to the vegetable market and buy them.
The wilderness is so dangerous. If you leisurely pick up snails, you may be in danger. Don't do this kind of thing again. "
"I know, but I am not leisurely when picking up snails. I have always been alert, so you don't have to worry. ”
Since Su Yue was still in a meeting, it was not easy to chat for a long time, so Lin Li briefly chatted with her for a few words and ended the chat.
In the kitchen, Lin Li took out a A plastic basin, and then a thought came to his mind, and a large bucket of fresh snails appeared out of thin air.
He put a basin of snails in for Su Yue, and then Lin Li left.
"Bang."
The sound of closing the door sounded, and the elevator door opened again.
Lin Li took the elevator downstairs, and not long after, the silver-white van drove away from Ping'an Garden Community.
“Buzz.”
When Lin Li left, a very subtle tremor sounded in the quiet study.
On the expensive mahogany bookshelf, the ordinary bronze mirror is trembling.
Then a pale golden light appeared on the surface of the bronze mirror, and then a voice sounded in the study room.
“I thought there was a thief in the house, but it turned out to be the owner’s friend.”
