Chapter 59: Cheated

  Zhang Er Niu made such a fuss, confusing Gu Long Fei. He didn't know what Zhang Er Niu's purpose was in coming to find him. If he wanted to be the heir of Zhang Xiu Zhi and return the house, considering the relationship between Zhang Shu and his family, Gu Long Fei would unhesitatingly agree to give it back to him!

  But he just said half of the sentence and left! He didn't explain his requirements or purpose, and before leaving, he threw out a ruthless remark: You wait! Wait for what? If he wants the house, I'll give it to him, what else can he do?!

  Although Gu Longfei had figured out the truth, he still felt a bit depressed in his heart. What was going on? Out of nowhere, someone claiming to be Zhang Xiuzhi's cousin appeared, but how come he had never heard that her uncle had children before? It seemed like there were some ulterior motives at play here, otherwise Zhang Erniu's behavior would have been too irrational!

  After Gu Longfei flew in the door, just about to close it, someone suddenly knocked on the door. He thought it was Zhang Erniu returning and turned around, thinking that this was a good opportunity to have a face-to-face conversation. "Isn't he just wanting his house back? That's simple, I'll give it to him." Gu Longfei had plenty of money, who cared about Zhang Erniu's things?!

  When he opened the door and saw the person outside, he couldn't help but be surprised: all he saw was that the man had a scarred face with a faint smile on it, his expression slightly startled, wasn't this his cousin Xiao Cheng?!

  Jiulong Fei was surprised and delighted as he let his cousin in, asking: "Cousin, how did you have time to come see me?"

  After entering the house, Zuo said hastily: "I heard a piece of news that Wang Dahai seems to be unfavorable to you and is preparing to take some action!"

  "Big Wave Wang? I haven't offended him, why would he be dissatisfied with me? Besides, his relationship with Murong Ding is good, even if I had offended him somewhere, he wouldn't take action against me for the sake of Murong Ding." Gu Longfei heard this and was puzzled in his heart.

  "Alas, I don't know the details! I was passing by Wang Dahai's door and overheard him discussing with Yuan Dabiao, the captain of the action team. They said that this way, Gu Longfei will not be obedient anymore! I was shocked when I heard it, and after a while, I went to Wang Dahai's office on the pretext of something else. Yuan had already left, and I asked him in a roundabout way what they were planning to do with you, but he kept his mouth shut and didn't reveal anything. Since I couldn't get any information from him, I rushed here to inform you, either to avoid it or to prepare yourself for the situation!"

  Jiulong furrowed his brow and said: "This is strange, I just can't figure out what purpose Wang Dahai has in dealing with me."

  "Earlier you said that Wang Dahai and Murong Ding's relationship is not bad, will it be Murong Ding who is playing tricks in the middle again?" Because he knew that in the past, Murong Ding had secretly harmed Gu Longfei's wife and daughter in order to make Gu Longfei obey him, and later used all sorts of tricks to force Gu Longfei onto a desperate path, before he himself stepped out to rescue him, trying to make Gu Longfei feel grateful to him and be used by him.

  "Ever since he introduced me to Huamanlou, I've been helping him out," Gu Long said with a shake of his head. "He has no reason to harm me again!"

  Xiao Cheng thought for a moment and also believed that Murong Ding had no reason to frame Gu Longfei, so he didn't mention it again. He hesitated for a moment, looking somewhat embarrassed as he said: "Little Fei, I...I want to say something, but don't know how to start!"

  Jiulong Fei immediately understood, it must be that Jintiao was deceived and got the fake 'Missouri' plan. He smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, we're all relatives, you can speak boldly!"

  Qiao Cheng glanced at Gu Longfei, saw his relaxed expression, and felt a wave of panic in her heart. She quickly shifted her gaze to the side and said with embarrassment: "Cousin, those gold bars might take some time to return to you!"

  Suddenly, Gu Longfei's childlike heart rose, and he thought of teasing him, so he intentionally asked: "No rush, no rush, I don't need it now, putting it in the bank or with you is the same. Oh right, did that plan get bought? What's the content?"

  His dark skin suddenly turned red, and his face turned purple. The scar on his face turned blood red, as if it was about to bleed. He said with embarrassment: "At that time, I also blindly believed in the words of my superiors, and I was eager to get that plan. Without verification, I completed the transaction! Who knew that when I brought it back home, it was just a few old books? What 'Missouri Plan'?! That person...that person turned out to be a swindler! Ah, how could I be so careless and not see through his tricks!"

  Ku Longfei had long guessed the outcome, seeing him so anxious, one was that a hundred gold bars were cheated away, and two was that his self-esteem was hurt. If this matter got out, wouldn't it be a huge joke? At least the many spies in Hankou would think it a strange thing, and for a long time, they wouldn't dare to make fun of him again. His face turned serious, and he said: "Cousin, don't take the gold bars to heart, being cheated is just being cheated, there's nothing to it, I won't ask you to pay me back!"

  Zhuo Cheng hastily stood up and said: "That won't do, I'll definitely think of a way to return it to you! No matter what, I couldn't bear the thought of owing my cousin money!"

  Jiulong Fei gently pressed him down into the chair and said, "Cousin, since you regard me as your younger cousin, don't be so serious. I say no need to repay, then there's no need to repay! Besides, you know my methods, casually gathering a few pieces of information can sell for quite a bit of money!"

  Zhang Cheng nodded his head, feeling a bit moved by the words. "Alright then, let's not talk about this for now! I'm also preparing to leave, remember what I said earlier and be careful of Wang Da Hai!" In fact, he secretly thought that no matter what, he had to pay back the money in the future.

  At this time, Gu Longfei really wanted to ask who his superior was, but due to organizational discipline, he didn't dare to ask, so he asked: "What did your superiors say about this matter? Don't they... don't they take some responsibility?" That day, Xiao Cheng had just taken the gold bars from him, and then he was found by Murong Ding, who let him get acquainted with Huamanlou. Later, when he went to Feng Xiaotian's home to steal the "Missouri" plan, he knew that Xiao Cheng would definitely be deceived, but at the time, there was no time to inform him, and it was also impossible to find him for a while, so he could only watch as he was cheated!

  Zuo Zuo shook his head and said, "After I was deceived, I wanted to go find my superiors and ask them what channel they got the news from. But unexpectedly, after searching for several days through various channels, I couldn't find them. Isn't that strange?"

  Gu Long Fei nodded silently and said, "Perhaps something big happened within the organization, they just hid or retreated!" In his heart, he wondered if they would know that the source of the information was wrong, which led to Xiao Cheng being deceived, and intentionally avoiding him out of embarrassment.

  "Your words, if that's the case, would be a bit better, but I'm worried they might get caught by the Japanese! Think about it, even if they need to hide or retreat, they should at least notify us!"

  The old dragon flew and sank for a moment, saying: "It shouldn't be, these days I haven't heard any rumors about the Japanese catching people, besides you are working in Wang Da Hai's police station, this kind of news should be more informed, if you also didn't hear anything then it proves that the people from the organization are fine!"

  Xiao Cheng fell silent for a moment, thinking about Gu Longfei's words. He thought they made perfect sense and nodded his head, saying: "You're right, it seems like nothing happened to them, but how could they just disappear?" Xiao Cheng was deeply loyal to the organization and had never doubted his superiors or tried to analyze their thoughts.

  He didn't know how to say it, so he changed the subject and said: "Actually, you didn't have to fall for it! Not long after you took away the gold bars, I received news that the 'Missouri' plan was in someone else's hands, and the news was absolutely true! However, there is a problem here. Every time we meet, it's always you who comes to find me, but when I have something to inform you about, I don't know where to go to get in touch with you! When I found out that the 'Missouri' plan was somewhere else, I knew you were going to be deceived, but I couldn't find you!"

  He thought for a moment and felt that this was an oversight in their communication. The only place where he could find his own people was the police station, but it was impossible to let him go there. If so, wouldn't many people know about their relationship? That would add a lot of inconvenience and trouble! So he said: "Let's do this, next to the police station gate, on the left side, there is a grocery store, the owner is called Pidegui, he is our person, if there is an emergency, you can go find him!"

  Jade Dragon's face showed a hint of displeasure as he said, "Brother-in-law, don't you have another contact point? Can we change to a different one?"

  "Arrogant asked inexplicably: 'Why? Do you know Pidegui? What's the problem between you two?'"

  The dragonfly flew away, laughing and saying: "How would I know the owner of that grocery store? Not to mention having a problem, I just think the police station is too far from here. I want to go find that so-called Pidegui, almost have to cross half of Hankou City!"

  Xiao's expression turned serious, and he said: "Younger brother, don't be picky about things, half a city is still half a city. Besides, you're not even walking there, taking a car won't take much time either. Moreover, in our line of work, the more connection points you have, the greater the risk! There's only one connection point, and that's Pidegui!"

  Jiulong Fei saw that his brother-in-law was getting a bit angry, so he put on an air of superiority and smiled: "Do you think I'm that kind of person? I'm just worried that there might be an emergency situation, the journey is long and it will take up too much time, delaying important matters!"

  "Some things can't be forced, as the saying goes: 'Planning is in man's hands, but success is in heaven's hands.' Many things in life are unpredictable!" He finished speaking and bid farewell, leaving the door.
