Chapter 55: When it is broken, it is broken(1/2)
In the ancient office, Qi Wen hung up the phone.
He was not as decrepit as the tone on the phone, but just a little older. His mottled white hair was meticulously combed, his suit was straight, his eyebrows were strong, and he was not angry or authoritative.
At this moment, he didn't show any displeasure, he just rubbed his eyebrows with a slightly complicated expression.
Behind the desk, the young man eating an orange raised his head casually and asked casually: "Dad, what did she say?"
Qi Wen's expression was calm, "She is still young and not sensible. She will know how good her family is in the future."
"Does that mean you don't know how to appreciate it?"
The young man sneered, "The father is a loser, and the daughter is a cripple. Do you really think she can become a prosecutor on her own? Tell me, dad, you don't have to waste money on a loser who will marry sooner or later.
What kind of feelings... Tsk, if it weren’t for the old lady’s intention, I wouldn’t even want this kind of defective product given to me for free.”
Bang!
Qi Wen's tea cup broke in front of him, and the hot water splashed, almost making him jump in fright.
"Shut up, you loser! What are you thinking in your mind? Can you figure out what the old man means?"
Qi Wen opened his eyes wide and glared at him: "Are you able to interfere with the Savior's Society thing? You actually got together with that group of lunatics, and left a clue and that disaster! You are afraid that I will be pissed off by you?
Isn't it early enough, Qi Yuan?"
"..."
Qi Yuan was stunned for a long time, then said stiffly, "Don't I also want to help the family?"
"Shut up! He Luo? He Luo come in."
Qi Wen suddenly paused the crutch in his hand, and a strong man walked in from the door.
"Send this prodigal son home." Qi Wen said coldly: "Before the news passes, I will break whichever leg he dares to go out!"
"Dad, are you going too far?"
Qi Yuan was angry: "Why should I make some money as if I have poked a huge hole in the sky? Aren't you the first one to get involved with them? What are you afraid of, Dad? Sooner or later, that bitch will bring you tea and water."
,Does she still dare to offend us?"
Qi Wen was so angry that he no longer wanted to talk to him and closed his eyes.
Soon, Qi Yuan was dragged away by his bodyguards, leaving only He Luo alone in the office, his expression still calm and he did not speak.
After a long time, Qi Wen rubbed his eyebrows and finally breathed a sigh of relief, returning to his original calm and deep look.
"Is it about the Savior Society?" he asked.
"Wang Hai has been hiding in the suburbs for the past two days, and his movements are sneaky. He seems to be contacting someone."
He Luo said, "The young master was deceived by him and seemed to have placed a reward. Although I have cleaned up all the traces, the trouble the Savior will cause may involve us."
"Where is he now?"
"I don't know. This afternoon, he came to me and said he wanted to see you -"
He Luo paused and repeated Wang Hai's words: "He said that he had the will of a baptized person.
As instructed, I told him that the boss was recuperating and would not see anyone. He left."
Qi Wen lowered his gloomy eyes.
"Very good." He said, "Very good."
In the silence, Qi Wen tapped his cane with his fingers and seemed to be talking to himself: "Why has Xinhai, a remote and remote place like this, always been so busy for decades?
After waiting for so many years, the Huai family fell, and then the Yin family came. Finally, the Yin family left, and the Savior Society began to hide in secret and entangle them..."
He narrowed his eyes and murmured softly, "One after another, they want others to be their pawns."
He Luo said nothing.
Qi Wen doesn't need anyone to answer it.
As if he was contemplating some difficult decision, his expression kept changing, sometimes gloomy, sometimes ferocious.
Until He Luo took a step forward, interrupted his thinking, and ignored his angry eyes and whispered: "Boss, I'll break it off."
"..."
Qi Wen looked coldly at the deputy who had been following him for many years. For a long, long time, he seemed to have finally made up his mind and closed his eyes.
"Where's that cowherd who's asking around?"
"It was disposed of yesterday and the body sank into the sea." He Luo replied: "The people below asked clearly. It was his own private action and had nothing to do with the Astronomical Society."
Qi Wen's expression calmed down a little, "Yin Qing, do you know what happened back then?"
"That matter was handled very cleanly, leaving no beginning or end."
He Luo replied, "Afterwards, I found someone to use the Lost Soul Guide. Everyone involved will gradually boil their essence. Even if they don't die early, they will become fools and won't remember anything. Even if she knew, she wouldn't
Is there any evidence.”
In the silence, not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
After a long time, Qi Wen raised his eyes.
"Then let's end it."
His expression was cold, "It was a mistake to cooperate with them back then, otherwise we would not have caused trouble to this day. Tomorrow, no, tonight you will go there and clean up all the traces of the Redeemer Society without leaving any traces.
.
Although the Qi family is small, it is not easy to deal with all kinds of crazy people..."
"good."
He Luo nodded, "Where is Yinqing?"
"...We don't need to take action."
Qi Wen narrowed his eyes, "The top priority now is to get us out of it and withdraw... Xinhai is about to change. I want to see how long she can stay on this fire pit."

In the evening, Huaishi received the express delivery.
To be precise, a car without a sign parked at the entrance of Shisui Hall. After calling Huai Shi to go out, he dropped a box and left.
"This is the style of yesterday's express delivery. Quality, quantity and speed are guaranteed, but the service attitude should not be too demanding."
The crow stood on the table, paws sliding on a row of mobile phones. On various APPs that Huai Shi could not recognize, the lists were constantly updated, the products were all kinds of, and the settlement currency was even more confusing.
There was a constant ding sound, like taking a takeout order.
Now that she has the basic tools, she seems to have been making various potions recently.
Nominally, she worked hard to support her family, but Huai Shi didn't know exactly how much she earned. She could only be heard saying that she was struggling to make ends meet every day.
Only ghosts believe...
When Huai Shi walked into the basement carrying the suitcase, he only saw a few crucibles on the table making a beeping noise, and gases of various colors were constantly floating up. If it weren't for the large one-hundred-watt light bulb on top, he would have been stunned.
I suspected that I had walked into some crazy alchemist's laboratory.
"To be honest, it's because I don't have the conditions to do it. I can only rely on flasks and beakers."
Crow expressed his disdain for this: "The current budget can't even afford a better centrifuge and solution crystallizer, let alone the layout of a clean room and a lot of cracking furnaces..."
After reading her list of demands, Huai Shi just thought that this guy wanted to open a chemical factory under his house. His head hurt: When did your alchemy skills become so advanced with the times?
"Don't be stupid. Can beakers and crucibles that can only be used to fool junior high school chemistry classes compare to professional equipment worth tens of millions?"
Crow looked back at him: "The essence of alchemy is to burn money. How can you become stronger without recharging money?"
Huai Shi was sad and angry: "I have rushed so much but I still haven't seen how strong I have become!"
"That means you haven't charged enough. Please recharge some more. How dare you say you've made money without even recharging a Ferrari?" Crow rolled his eyes and motioned to Huai Shi to put the things on the table.
At noon, it sold the horns of the singing snake that were the stolen goods that Huai Shi had brought back in spite of his desperation.
It is said that the quality is quite good, so I simply chose to barter and got a lot of materials from the other party.
After checking it, Crow nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, in this case, you can gather together the materials for the potion and some of the main materials needed for the stigmata."
"that's it?"
Huai Shi lowered his head and looked at the various ghost things sealed in bottles in the box.
Several bottles of dust of different colors, a crystal cluster, a few pieces of black iron ore, and various liquids that seemed to be extracted from plants...
I don't understand what's going on at all.
"This is rainbow ember. In the past, Nordic people would call the naturally occurring space transfer phenomenon the rainbow bridge. This is the natural material that remains after the phenomenon is over, and is a high-quality material used as a blending agent.
This is the proof of the Silent One. It looks like an ore, but is actually a polymer of source material.
Only after a person abides by his oath and trusts and guards a certain secret for his whole life, can a rare object appear with a chance of appearing after death. It can be said to be the crystallization of will and loyalty. Being as big as a thumb, it seems that the secret is really big.
