Longmen Memoirs

Because Chen Mo heard the fox say similar words more than once, he couldn't tell how much of it came from his heart.

It was as if the fox had become an aborigine who had grown up in the lower city, and had successfully transformed himself into that kind of person.

All true disguises start with deceiving yourself.

The fox was testing the extent of the current situation in the lower city.

They began to come into contact with more, and the rumors circulating in Xiacheng District became more and more specific. Rather, they should be exaggerated. People's imagination is always too exaggerated. This information gradually turned into Longmen from the beginning of human experiments. In order to eliminate the infected people in the entire Xiacheng District, the Xiacheng District will be re-planned, and the people in the Xiacheng District will be collectively imprisoned and sent to factories and mining areas for transformation.

Or, the infected people try to break out another riot, and Xiacheng District is the first to bear the brunt. Some infected people have secretly kidnapped some ordinary people in Xiacheng District and infected them. I heard that several people disappeared yesterday...

Or, the infected people have developed a new drug that can turn all the people in the lower city into their kind in a short time...

Smart people can naturally distinguish between true and false. Unfortunately, thinking is a troublesome thing for most people.

These comments are so overwhelming that it is difficult to tell whether they are true or false. The tabloids are fanning the flames and the major newspapers are criticizing them.

An atmosphere of panic gradually filled the Xiacheng District. When people looked at the police officers on the street, they looked at them with a mixture of rejection, uneasiness and vague fear. At the same time, they were deliberately alienating the infected people who were also in the Xiacheng District.

But in the upper city area, this atmosphere has become very normal, and few people really care about these things. It seems that they have become two worlds across a street. In the upper city area, these things have become a topic for people to talk about after dinner.

The first "secret meeting" was held quietly in a casino in Xiacheng District. The door of the casino was closed, and a small group of people in Xiacheng District gathered together. This was the eve of the riot, and previous riots always required someone. Be the first to stand up.

So, Chen Mo and Foxhound got involved.

Thanks to Fox's hard work these days, and also thanks to Chen Mo's natural identity as an infected person.

Chen Mo could probably imagine that this was the ultimate purpose of what Foxhound had been doing during this period, but what they knew was very limited. The biggest gain from this so-called mobilization meeting was a small group of infected people and a large group of poor people. They stand together to complain and curse collectively to vent their dissatisfaction, mixed with suspicion and discrimination.

Fox is really a cunning person. The police officers from the Guards Bureau failed to notice the meeting, and perhaps they pretended to turn a blind eye on purpose. Chen Mo didn't know how much backhand Fox had hidden from him.

Although they live together with the fox hound, they have never lessened their testing and vigilance towards each other.

Fox was the first to stand up. She stood on the table excitedly, her face flushed, and she used her special skills. She was rhetorical, well-founded, and quoted from classics. If Chen Mo hadn't known him well, he would have even begun to suspect that she had already prepared a speech. This mobilization rally was initiated by her.

At this moment, the fox really came into the eyes of this group of people. Afterwards, someone invited the fox hound. Chen Mo didn't know what they were talking about, because at that time, Chen Mo was standing outside waiting for her.

He stood on the street in Xiacheng District and looked at the small noodle shop opposite that was doing poorly. The owner sat under the counter and watched the funny programs played on the small TV hanging in the room. Perhaps similar shops could only be found in places like this.

There have been similar places in my memory.

Chen Mo had seen everything Fox had done in the past period. She did not hide anything deliberately, and Chen Mo was not a fool either.

Those police officers who have been transferred, as well as the characters that Fox has tried every means to build over a period of time, if someone is willing to add fuel to the fire at this time, it can easily lead to a so-called mobilization meeting.

How many people in Xiacheng District joined this operation? They stood in different positions, played different identities, and worked tirelessly to push the wheel forward.

Chen Mo is happy to be a fool, because the fox looks happy now.

She was originally such a stupid little brat. She couldn't say two sentences in a day, and she looked stupid and funny.

So, do it, fox cub.

Don't hesitate, don't regret, even if you turn your sword on me in the end, because this is what I want, because you don't know that I went to that hospital again later, and the doctor told me that a child named Su Li with the same name as you, she It was just an appendix attack and a minor surgery was done.

Maybe you left these on purpose, maybe you already knew and I guessed your identity, maybe you just wanted me to relax my vigilance, or maybe you really wanted to help me.

It's okay, fox cub.

I can understand your difficulties, and I can also understand how difficult it must be for you to become a police officer after all these years of hard work.

I understand that some regrets cannot be spared.

You shouldn't stay too long with meaningless people and things.

He thought like this, as if he was telling the fox, and also as if he was telling himself.

ps: I want to blow Wei Yanwu’s head off.

Chapter 25 Don’t think I’m the only one getting beaten

Adams-Shihuaiya.

An old man over fifty years old.

His name is unknown to everyone in the entire Longmen upper class society and upper-class people, because his family controls the most capital in Longmen, covering shipping, real estate, trade, retail and many other industries.

The Shihuaiya family owns several prosperous neighborhoods in Longmen. Most of the products in Longmen, whether they are luxury goods or daily necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation are closely related to this family.

To put it simply, as long as you stay in Longmen for a day, you will definitely get in touch with this family. Pacific Place is only a part of his family's property, and in Victoria, the Sivaiya family owns more properties than Longmen.

But now, the Shihuaiya family is in the luxurious manor on the top of the mountain. The old man is looking at the calm and smiling Longmen Consul opposite with a complicated expression. His intuition tells him that this old guy will definitely be up to no good. , but since he came in person, this matter must have a lot to do with the Shihuaiya family.

"I received a notification from your shadow guard that you want to see me. Old guy, you are not the kind of person who will find trouble for nothing, so if you have anything to do, just tell me straight to the point."

After thinking for a few seconds, Adams spoke slowly. The old man's words were calm, but he still couldn't hide the morbidity in his voice. He was sitting in a wheelchair, with an expensive velvet blanket draped between his legs. His upper body was wearing an expensive and decent formal suit. He lost the demeanor and arrogance of an old aristocrat, and while looking at Wei Yanwu, he also felt a sense of familiarity with meeting an old friend.

They were the only two people left in the study.

"I don't know which thing you are referring to. A lot of things have happened in recent years, but there are not many that are worth mentioning..." Adams put his fingers on the armrest and tapped lightly, lost in thought: "I have to Think about it.”

Wei Yanwu looked at Adams who was lost in thought and smiled. He knew that the old guy was trying to spread suspicion and was waiting for him to speak. This shrewd businessman always likes to wait for the price and is unwilling to take risks, but where in the world is there such a thing? Plant good things.

"Do you still remember the case where your granddaughter was kidnapped more than ten years ago? Old guy."

"Of course I haven't forgotten it." Adams replied in a deep voice: "At that time, you had just mastered Longmen. Many people were not optimistic about you, and people's hearts were floating. The shadow he left has not yet dissipated. They wanted to use this method to make you and me feel better. After a gap in life, we weakened your influence and control over Longmen. After that, we worked together to deal with many people."

"That's when you finally made up your mind to stand by my side." Wei Yanwu replied. "If it hadn't been for this, you don't know how long you would have had to wait and see before it came to an end."

"But you don't look happy. You are very angry because of a police officer who didn't listen to your orders." Adams had a questioning look in his eyes.

"I thought he would be the best leader of the inspection team. He came from the Yan Kingdom and helped me form and secretly train the prototype of the inspection team." Wei Yanwu sighed softly: "But he died, and his death was very painful. It's a pity that he didn't have to die."

"So you are here to reminisce with me now. I remember that I have repaid you this kindness." Adams said, and slowly shook his head: "But I guess more, you have hidden a lot of things from us old guys. , now you finally decide to speak out?"

Adams crossed his hands in front of him, as if waiting for Wei Yanwu's answer.

"Do you want to hear this story?" Wei Yanwu asked.

"Since you are here, it means that I can't avoid this matter. Since I can't avoid it, you must be ready to give me a reasonable excuse. You know that I am a businessman, and businessmen like to wait for a price. And I'd love to hear what you have to say."

Wei Yanwu fell silent, and it took several seconds before he spoke again.

So he told Adams a story, a story that happened since he, Edward, Lin Corey and Adams in front of him joined forces to conspire to drive Cosich out of the Dragon Gate.

A young man who came all the way from Dayan, his wife, and his five-year-old child came to Longmen to seek protection and help from Wei Yanwu. In the end, they both left, leaving only the underage child.

"You were willing to stand by our side back then, not only because you noticed Edward's identity, but also because Cosiche's policies caused a setback to your career in Longmen. Now, it's time for you to make a choice." Wei Yanwu looked at Adams opposite: "He has returned to Longmen now. Even I don't know what he will do next. It may be better or worse, but you have to know that although his father's death has something to do with me, but you It can't be ruled out, he is a debtor, don't you think you should do something? Otherwise, he will inevitably not find you, after all, the cause of this matter is your precious granddaughter."

"It was the child in the orphanage back then. Betty often mentioned him when she was little. I know that child will probably never forget that incident in her life, and now she actually has the idea of ​​working in the Guards Bureau."

"You can feel free to let her come to the Guards Bureau."

"If she wants to do it, I won't stop her. It would be good for the child to listen more. I'll have to trouble you then."

"It's not troublesome. Hui Jie will be back by then. I believe they will have a lot to say."

"Hui Jie, that child went to Victoria. Speaking of Hui Jie, I thought of Xiaota again..."

Adams pondered for a moment.

"According to your statement, the first person he wants to find is you, old friend, and you are sitting across from me now. So you and him have reached a certain condition. What are you secretly planning? ?”

"Old guy, if you want to get rid of me, just forget it." Wei Yanwu smiled and shook his head.

"You won't say, ah, you still haven't changed. Your arrogance will get you into trouble sooner or later." Adams reminded him. He considered it again, although he did not completely believe Wei Yanwu's words and believed in the young people he spoke of. He really has that kind of ability, but Wei Yanwu will not take aim without aim. If that young man really has that kind of ability, as a businessman, Adams has the caution and planning that all businessmen usually have.

"I remember that at that time, we had just captured this dragon gate from Ursus. The Yan Kingdom sent you here alone, with only those shadow guards who were willing to follow you. They never thought that you could capture it with the strength in your hands. Here, you met Edward who fled to Longmen again, and you united with Lin from the lower city area and convinced me again."

Adams' words were filled with memories, but when he looked at Wei Yanwu, his eyes showed a trace of regret: "At that time, I thought maybe you could really make a career. You are the most outstanding person I have ever met. You are in Longmen The combination of vertical and horizontal, that kind of arrogance, even made me moved, so I made up my mind to stand on the same path with you, but you changed later, old friend..."

"You have become less energetic, you have become timid, and your eyes have only been set on Longmen. Without that young man who I remember so vividly, you could have gone further with your ability."

In the quiet study room, Adams' words slowly fell. He looked carefully at Wei Yanwu in front of him, as if he wanted to find in him the man who came to him alone back then. He faced himself alone and faced the extremely difficult situation. Longmen's eyes are calm and eager, showing confidence and boldness without losing elegance and calmness.

But now he is sitting in front of her, looking majestic and solemn, but he is like an old man who is aging and worried, without the arrogance and courage to do anything.

He is still Wei Yanwu, but he is no longer Wei Yanwu.

"Where are you going? Can you still stand up now? Old guy, please save these words for later." Wei Yanwu replied calmly: "There is no need to mention things that have already been concluded. "

"I've already told you what you want to know. Now, it's time for you to give me an answer."

He looked at Adams, who was silent for a few seconds.

"Say your terms, Mr. Wei."

It was already late at night when Wei Yanwu left the Adams family manor.

The guard opened the car door and stood aside to hold an umbrella for him, while light rain fell in the sky.

After Wei Yanwu got out of the car, he saw the woman standing in front of the door.

Her figure is cold and aloof, her temperament is gentle and demure, with the tenderness of a lady from the south of the Yangtze River, without losing the dignity of everyone's aristocrats. She stands under the soft light at the end of the drizzle, looking here quietly with watery eyes.

The light rain formed a continuous line and dispersed in the light.

Wei Yanwu's majestic and solemn face couldn't help but soften. The girl in front of him was no longer the girl with a little temper and stubbornness. She was a noble woman who came to Longmen to meet him with a mission from the East Kingdom. His sister had never liked him. She, because she felt that this woman must have good intentions.

But many years have passed, and although she is still beautiful, the traces of time have been left behind. However, the sister who was so close to him at the beginning hated him until her death.

Thinking back carefully, he should have failed in his life. He killed his beloved brother with his own hands, watched his sworn brother die with his own eyes, and his relatives turned against him. Even the descendants left by his relatives doubted and hated him.

Whether it was Hui Jie, Xiaota, or him.

Wei Yanwu sighed softly.

"I guess your sigh must be because you are thinking about your experiences over the years." Wen Yue asked Wei Yanwu who came over with a gentle smile.

"I can't hide anything from you." Wei Yanwu lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Yue in front of him.

"It's a pity and regret. I heard from your shadow guards that you went to see Adams. You are not so hesitant now."

"Maybe it's the same as what you said. From the moment I decided to let his child leave Longmen, I should have made a decision." Wei Yanwu replied: "I don't know what will happen this time, Wen Yue, the worst outcome is without me. It’s so easy to think of.”

"But don't you always look like you have everything in your hands?" Wen Yue teased.

"You also know that this time is different."

"I know, I have always known, Yanwu." Wen Yue gently held Wei Yanwu's hand: "But I also think of the past, when Edward was still there. At that time, you never hesitated or flinched, and so did I. It's a bit sad that the man I originally liked has become so depressed over the years."

"...I let you down." Wei Yanwu slowly squeezed Wen Yue's hand.

"I am not the only one who is disappointed." Wenyue replied softly: "You have disappointed many people, Yanwu, but it is not too late now."

"I can't do these things."

"It's just because you think like this and take everything on yourself that you end up like this." Wen Yue sighed: "It doesn't have to be all about you."

Wei Yanwu fell silent and did not answer for a long time.

At that time, I drove him out of Longmen in order to hide the news about the child. Maybe I should not have put him and Xiaota together in the first place. I gave him a choice, but he chose the latter. I can see that he Not someone who gives up easily.

I should have gotten rid of the child at the beginning, I knew what would happen if he stayed, but they kept me from doing so. Maybe from then on, I also thought that he would become a different person, even if he was bleeding with that person's blood.

Maybe Shijie is right.

He felt that the child could be guided, that he should have been able to decide what kind of person he could become and choose the path he wanted to take.

But I don't regret it. I don't regret doing it.

Even if I let him stay in Longmen, he alone can't protect Xiaota and his future. I can't bet on my sister's daughter and Longmen to take risks for him.

Now, I'm ready. It's up to you to decide whether to be an enemy of Longmen or choose another path.

Chen Mo.

----

Chen Mo stood on the street more than ten meters away and looked at the small TV screen opposite. Someone walked by behind him. Chen Mo turned his head and took a look.

She was a very young girl, wearing a hood, her clothes were a bit loose, she had long purple hair, she was so skilled that she didn't look like a child, and she looked innocent after being caught.

This is what she looked like 10 minutes ago.

Now this man is sitting opposite Chen Mo. Several empty bowls have been placed next to him. He is still stuffing noodles into his mouth. His cheeks are bulging like a squirrel, as if it is the most delicious thing in the world.

How long have you been hungry for?

"Good workmanship."
