Chapter Thirty-Nine: Farewell Wild Donkey
"Get out, and don't let me see you within a 10-kilometer radius of Yinzong Palm again. Otherwise, I won't spare you, and it'll be easy to pin a spy charge on you!!" Chu Yan's words still carried weight for Wan Caoni, as she had personally witnessed his ruthless skills, and her own life had been saved by him. So, letting off a few unimportant thugs was no big deal, but the threat had to be carried out, or else who knows if they would come back to cause trouble after she left Nanshan City.
"Yes, yes, yes! Officer, we will never set foot in any area within a 10-kilometer radius of Silver Palm again. Let's get out of here, hurry!" The three sober hooligans lifted their leader and took off in a frantic sprint, muttering to themselves "For just two thousand bucks, we're being framed for espionage? Isn't this a bit too unjust?"
"Alright, I'll take care of the rest. I'll go talk to that Wild Donkey guy." Chu Yan smiled as he watched the group of thugs flee in disarray. He motioned for Mo Xiuyao and Wan Caoni to enter first, while he followed the small-time hooligans to track down Wild Donkey and teach him a lesson!
"I'm going too, Xiuyao, you go back first, we two will definitely settle this matter thoroughly today, hehe." Wan Caoni also came with excitement, this little girl had forgotten the pain after healing from her wound, and she still hadn't removed the stitches on her left shoulder's gunshot wound, but she was jumping around everywhere.
"Alright, you two be more careful." Mo Xiuyao knew the capabilities of these two friends, so this sentence was purely a symbolic concern. Being stared at by a fiery and seductive girl might bring a kind of painful yet thrilling stimulation, but being stared at by a hot-tempered and sexy international detective didn't seem like a particularly good thing. Moreover, with a fiercely skilled old man standing beside her, it wasn't even worth mentioning the thrill - it was simply seeking trouble and giving herself more pain.
Mo Xi Yao returned to Yin Zong Lu, Chu Yan and Wan Cai Ni walked in the direction of the four little rascals who had left, neither fast nor slow.
"Jenny, can I ask you a question?" Before long, the silhouettes of those thugs appeared in the sight of the two, and Chu Yan's guess was correct. These little rascals would definitely go to report to Wild Donkey at the first time, and the location where Wild Donkey was must not be far from Silver Palm, that is to say, it can be reached on foot without taking a ride.
The two of them discovered the target and followed him at a steady pace, chatting as they walked. Chu Yan was eager to understand why Wan Caoni disliked hospitals so much that she wouldn't even go there for treatment after being shot, and also why Mo Xiuyao's office had such complete surgical equipment, including backup blood plasma that had been prepared in advance.
"Sure, what do you want to know? My measurements? The color of my underwear?" Wan Cai Ni was in a good mood, turned her head and looked at Chu Yan with a serious expression, teasing him unscrupulously.
"95, 68, 98, black." Chu Yan glanced at Wan Cai Ni and rattled off a string of numbers, adding a color at the end. In Wan Cai Ni's stunned gaze, he continued to speak, "I don't need to know things that are obvious at first glance. What I want to know is, why do you dislike hospitals so much? And why do you have no sense of security?"
"You... you peeked at me?" Wang Caoni was stunned by Chu Yan's words, and the three measurements as well as the color of her underwear were exactly the same. This little girl suddenly had a short circuit in her brain, and it took her half a day to react, probably because he had taken advantage of the opportunity to appreciate his own proud and perfect body when he was loading bullets for himself.
"Am I allowed to sneak a peek? Don't change the subject, tell me, why are you so skilled with your hands, yet as an Interpol agent, your sense of security is so poor?" Chu Yan ignored Wan Caoni's astonishment. Even if he didn't operate on her to remove the bullet, their interactions over the past few days had already made some things crystal clear to him.
"Huh...do I? Didn't feel like it?" Wan Cai Ni's response was ambiguous, but Chu Yan clearly understood that this little girl didn't want to mention it, at least not for the time being.
"Look, over there! I heard a black Honda Odyssey. Those kids just got in, we have to hurry up or they'll be gone and it'll be a waste of time to look for them again." Wan Caoni said, speeding up first, while Chu Yan followed closely behind. The two people almost arrived at the same time in front of the commercial vehicle parked at the entrance of the alley.
As for the topic discussed earlier, Chu Yan didn't bring it up again. After all, Wan Cai Ni didn't want to talk about it, indicating that it was her private matter at heart. So, there's no need to dig deeper and make a fuss about it.
"What are you going to do?" She came to the front of the car, but it didn't start, and instead was parked with the engine off. Wancai Ni pulled out a gun and was about to shoot the car door lock, this move fell into Chu Yan's eyes and was simply excessive. Before she took action, he hurriedly stopped her. What's wrong with this little girl's brain circuit from time to time?
"Stay there, I'll handle it." Chu Yan said, walking over to tap gently on the window of the business car. He flashed a charming smile at the dark window, and although nothing could be seen from the outside looking in, the people inside were suddenly frightened out of their wits when they saw that smile!!!
"Rustle..." The car door opened, and a green-haired wild donkey stumbled out of the car with a confused expression on its face, as if it was both crying and laughing at the same time. "Immortal Grandfather, I...I've offended you again, haven't I? Why am I so unlucky?"
The little donkey was a bit clever, he had already gotten the news from the four new apprentices' mouths, but what they mentioned more was an Interpol with a large silver badge, and as for the man who knew the little donkey, it was just a casual mention. Who would have thought that when the little donkey saw this guy, his intestines almost turned green!!
"Heh heh, don't be nervous, I think we two have a pretty good fate, what do you say?" Chu Yan didn't have much killing intent towards Ye Lu, this little guy had bumped into him three times already, if you said he was lucky then it wouldn't be so bad that he drove such an old Japanese Pajero all day, this little guy, obviously wasn't doing very well.
"Is... whatever you say, goes? However, can't you just do me a favor and show me the way? I feel like every time there's work to be done, I always run into you. If this keeps up, my ten or so underlings will starve to death following me!" The wild donkey's words sounded extremely pitiful, but in reality, that was indeed the case. Ever since the first day he met Chu Yan, he had been scared out of his wits by Chu Yan's unpredictable behavior. Later on, even though Chu Yan spared his life, this kid still got a nervous twitch in his leg every time he thought about what happened that night, not to mention running into him again with a gun pointed at him.
It's just bad luck that just a few days ago, I took on a job where the other party said they wanted to take down their competitor and had me send some people to chase away all the customers from Silver Palm and block the entrance so no customers could come in to consume. This kind of thing is nothing new for Wild Donkey, so he agreed without hesitation. Who knew that he would run into this old man Chu Yan again?
The wild donkey's words with a crying tone made the nearby Wang Caoni unable to help but laugh, this rascal has been mixed to such an extent, it can be said that he is a rare species. What did Chu Yan do to make this rascal fear him so much?
"Haha, don't be nervous, I don't have any malicious intentions. I just want to ask you, do you want to become a real gangster?" In Chu Yan's mind, an idea was subconsciously born, and although this idea had some danger factor, it was also a kind of resource integration.
"Big brother, stop mocking me. I know I'm having a tough time and at this rate, it won't be long before my reputation as the Northern City Wild Donkey is completely gone!" The Wild Donkey's face turned from helplessness to deep resentment after venting his frustrations and plopping down on the ground.
"Alright, stop pretending to be tough. I've come to find you this time not to cause trouble for you, but to ask who's behind the scenes stirring up trouble and whose money are you taking?" Chu Yan had an idea in his mind, so he wouldn't take any substantial action against Ye Zi. It wasn't worth it to fight with someone like him.
"Whatever, I'm already in a miserable state anyway, and it's not like I can play any spy games. Although I don't know that guy, I sent someone to investigate, and the one who paid for this is Luo Kai, the boss of the Luo Corporation Group, which just declared bankruptcy. You should go bother him now! And I think it's time for me to change careers too!!" Wild Donkey said with a bitter expression. With his ambition to be a top-notch gangster since he was young, Wild Donkey seemed to have achieved nothing after five or six years of trying, except for having a dozen or so small-time henchmen who just ate and drank together. They spent their days wandering around like a guerrilla squad, but whatever!
"It's really him, okay, stop crying and making a long face, give me your contact information, I'll give you a job in a few days, now go, don't lose face here." Chu Yan said as he took the business card that Ye Lu hastily handed over, waving his hand slowly at Ye Lu. After that, Ye Lu got into the car and started the engine, spewing out black smoke as it sped away.
"Is that all, just letting him off like this?" Although Wan Caoni could also see that the little rascal's promising career as a hoodlum was thoroughly ruined unless something unexpected happened, she found Chu Yan's extremely gentle handling of the situation quite surprising. In her opinion, Chu Yan would at least beat him up badly and then make him spend the rest of his life in bed.
"He's just a rusty knife, haven't we already found someone to lend this knife to? Let's go back and find some time to thoroughly eliminate this hidden danger." Chu Yan said with a smile that was almost deadly.
"Alright, I'll listen to you!"
