In the room, the person who reported the news sat on Old Master Li’s bed and sighed. “Old Master Li, I told you that it was a coincidence. I can understand if you don’t believe me because I don’t believe it either.
“No one knew that Chuhai went to Jin City. The military didn’t know either. However, a few people secretly went to the freighter that Chuhai was preparing to take. Something happened to them, which made the military suspicious.
“As you know, the country already knows about Chuhai’s overseas affairs. How could they let him leave the country alive?
“Even if there was a trace of suspicion, they wouldn’t miss it. Chuhai happened to be unlucky.”
Old Master Li couldn’t help but close his eyes when he heard that. His chest heaved up and down for a while before he slowly calmed down. “Who did they send?”
“Alas, this was what I wanted to report to you. These people… have very mysterious backgrounds. I don’t know which military unit they belong to at all. I don’t have any news on my side. Old Du has also asked around, but you know that everyone is on tenterhooks now. Some things are not easy to ask. Until now, I haven’t found out which military unit was sent to surround Chuhai.”
Old Master Li was obviously not satisfied with this result. He narrowed his turbid eyes and said slowly, “You don’t even know which military unit the soldiers belong to? Then did you come just to tell me that Chuhai was shot to death?”
His old voice was not as intimidating as before. But even though he spoke slowly, it was enough to make the face of the person sitting on the bed tighten. He replied, “I came because I was afraid that you would take action after finding out.
“You know the situation outside. The entire situation is quite tense. If you act rashly, your connections will probably be affected.
“Even we can’t find out which military unit the soldiers belong to. Based on your experience, what kind of military unit do you think it is? If it’s the special forces, it must be an elite unit.
“You can investigate slowly if you want to find out, but not now. It’s best to wait for the news to pa.s.s before you make a move.”
The person who reported the news a.n.a.lyzed the situation bit by bit. He broke down the risks and benefits and slowly explained it to Old Master Li so that Old Master Li would bear with it for the time being.
If Old Master Li couldn’t control himself, he would definitely be affected.
After climbing to his position today, he was no longer the ignorant fool he was in the past. He had to plan for his future. He could not be dragged down by a deceased person who had committed a serious crime.
His a.n.a.lysis caused Old Master Li to remain silent for a long time. He closed his eyes and laid down quietly. No one could tell what he was thinking or planning.
The person was not in a hurry. Seeing this, he even got up and poured a gla.s.s of hot water. He let it cool in his hands first. When Old Master Li was done thinking, he could pa.s.s the warm water over.
After about four to five minutes, Old Master Li opened his eyes. The person handed him the gla.s.s of water and said respectfully, “You haven’t drunk any water since you woke up. Drink some water to moisten your throat first.”
After taking a few sips of the water, his throat, which was so dry that it seemed to be blocked by thick phlegm, had a hint of sweetness. As Old Master Li pa.s.sed the gla.s.s of water back, he stared at the man who got to where he was today with his help and said calmly, “You’re right. I have to bear with it for now.
“Help me ask around. I want to know who fired the gun at Chuhai. I want to thank him! I want to thank him for doing such a huge thing!”
