When he knew that he had been seen, Li Zhenruo’s first reaction was to turn around and run, and thought: It’s a bad thing to have a big face!
He ran towards the window at the end of the corridor, and after jumping on the window, he realized that the man hadn’t caught up, so he turned to look, and saw the man standing at the door watching him stop moving.
The man was born out of the sensitivity of outlaws. When he saw movement outside, his first reaction was that there was someone. When he really chased him out, he found that it was a cat and there was no one else.
Li Zhenruo stared at him for a moment, then made a pretentious “meow”.
The man looked at him for a while, then turned and went back to the room.
Li Zhentai asked, “What?”
The man said, “It’s nothing, just a cat.”
“Cat?” For some reason, Li Zhentai seemed to be too sensitive to cats. So he stood up and walked outside.
When Li Zhenruo heard the movement, he wondered if she should avoid it, but then he thought it would be better for Li Zhentai to see him. His black fur shouldn’t make him suspect anything.
It was just that after Li Zhentai came out, he still turned his face away with a guilty conscience and did not let him see it.
Li Zhentai saw a black cat squatting on the window sill, and felt a little relieved. However, then he felt that he was too cranky, turned back to the room, and said, “Anyway, get them away first, you also know that now I have some problems with the family. I can not let them go in to stir up.”
“Family?” The man snorted coldly, “The two downstairs are your family, right?”
Li Zhentai said irritably, “Cut the crap!”
The man said, “Okay, get another car. I’ll take them away first, and I’ll contact you later for other matters.”
Li Zhentai replied, “Okay, I’ll call someone to drive over now.”
Afterwards, Li Zhentai made a phone call and asked someone to drive a car over.
After he finished the call, the man went downstairs first.
Li Zhenruo hid behind the door of an open room next to him. He hesitated about whether to follow the man downstairs, but he heard Li Zhentai’s light footsteps and walked to the stairs, and looked down.
Then Li Zhenruo heard that Li Zhentai started to call, and the voice was very low. If it wasn’t for his cat’s hearing, he would not be able to hear clearly.
Li Zhentai said to the person on the phone, “Give me the car you drove here and do something on the brakes,” His voice was very nervous, almost trembling, and then he said, “No, the brakes won’t work. It’s better to put a time bomb.”
Li Zhenruo couldn’t hear what the person over the phone said.
But Li Zhentai quickly said in a low and anxious voice, “Why not? As long as you have money, what can’t you do? I’ve given you time, you can come over tonight! You’ll call later and say the car is broken, and that you have to change the car again, and then just get stuck on the road!”
Li Zhenruo was stunned for a while, he didn’t expect Li Zhentai to be so ruthless, even the people who worked for him were not spared.
Li Zhentai’s breathing sounded fast and heavy, and he said, “No matter what method, I want all the people in that car to die, you do it!”
He hung up the phone, stood against the wall for a while to regain his breath, and then slowly walked downstairs.
The couple who were sitting on the sofa stood up as soon as they saw him, their eyes panicked.
Li Zhentai was expressionless and said, “I think you are mistaken, I am not the person you are talking about.”
The husband and wife suddenly became nervous, and the old lady said, “Really, we—”
“Stop talking!” Li Zhentai interrupted her, “I’ve already called a car, and I’ll send you off tonight and go back to your hometown. There’s no need to say anything!”
Li Zhentai stared at them fiercely. When the old lady was about to speak, she was pulled by her husband. The husband and wife looked at each other and fell silent.
Li Zhenruo hid at the corner of the stairs and looked at them.
He saw the disappointment and pain in the eyes of the couple. It was just that they chose to abandon this son back then, and now that he’s grown up, they want to come and ask for the son’s recognition after not seeing him for 30 years.
Li Zhentai refused to accept them and Li Zhenruo fully understood it, but if he wanted to kill them, he could only say that Li Zhentai was too cruel.
Two other men in the room sat on the sofa next to each other, smoked a cigarette and talked in a low voice.
First, he said some unrelated things, and then the tall and thin man who had been talking with Li Zhentai upstairs for a long time asked, “Why hasn’t he come yet?”
Li Zhentai frowned slightly, “I’ll call and ask.”
He just stood up and gestured to take out his mobile phone, when there was a knock on the door outside.
The man got up and said, “Oh? The car is coming?”
Li Zhentai changed his face, it stood to reason that the car could not come at this time.
Li Zhenruo couldn’t help sticking his head out, and wondered if the police were here already. Then he thought again, oh no, Li Zhenran didn’t know that Li Zhentai didn’t plan to do it now, and he didn’t split up with the old couple yet. Even if the police came at this time, it would have no effect.
Sure enough, Li Zhentai walked over to open the door and saw a policeman in a police uniform standing outside. He asked, “What are you doing?”
Li Zhentai was still calm, and he asked, “Officer? What can I do for you?”
The policeman said, “Someone called the police and said there was a kidnapping here.”
When he heard of this, Li Zhentai frowned in surprise, turned his head and looked inside, “Anyone of you called the police?”
The two men in the room responded with a lazy attitude, “Who called the police?”
The policeman looked at the couple, and the two of them looked out of place with the others, so they asked, “Are you all right?”
The couple looked at each other and shook their heads.
The policeman frowned in displeasure and said that someone had called the police indiscriminately and wanted to register the information of the people in the house.
Li Zhentai said with a smile, “Officer, it’s really a misunderstanding, maybe it’s a nearby building, some of our brothers brought their elders to take a vacation, where did the kidnapping come from?”
Afterwards, he handed the police a cigarette and whispered for a while before coaxing the police officer away.
When the police left, Li Zhentai changed his face when he slammed the door shut. He tried his best not to lose his temper with the two old people, but asked the young man sitting on the sofa, “Why would anyone call the police?”
The man said, “How should I know?”
Li Zhentai said, “Someone is watching us!”
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, “Let’s go, we need to change places!”
At this time, the old couple began to realize that something was wrong.
The old lady clutched her husband’s hand tightly, looking uneasy, the old man asked Li Zhentai, “Where are we going?”
Li Zhentai said, “It’s not safe here, let’s go somewhere else.”
The old man protected his wife and said, “How about we just leave first.”
Li Zhentai asked him, “Where are you going?”
The old man said, “Since you’re not xiao Jie, then we won’t bother. We’ll go first.”
At this time, the old lady grabbed the old man’s hand and said, “How come he’s not? He is xiao Jie!”
With a gloomy face, Li Zhentai roared, “Shut up!” Then he called the two men, “Let’s go now!”
Li Zhenruo glanced outside anxiously. Just now, Li Zhenran and the others could no longer be seen. He didn’t know where Li Zhenran went, but he knew that Li Zhenran should not go far because he was still here.
Li Zhentai and the other five drove a small car, just enough for them to sit down.
It was impossible for Li Zhenruo to squeeze up without being known.
Li Zhentai and the others were still waiting. They wanted to wait for the policeman to move further away before taking action.
So Li Zhenruo slipped out of the window at this time and wanted to find Li Zhenran.
There was only one path out from this villa. Li Zhenruo ran along the path and saw a car parked on the side of the road where he had just entered the road, and Li Zhenran was still standing beside the door wearing a suit.
Li Zhenruo rushed towards him at once.
However, what he didn’t expect was that Li Zhenran didn’t catch him, but took a step back and let Li Zhenruo jump into the air, hit the car window directly, and then slipped to the ground.
With tears in his eyes, he looked up at Li Zhenran.
Li Zhenran looked at him with a slightly suspicious look.
Li Zhenruo bowed his head and saw the black hair on his chest before he suddenly remembered that he had changed his appearance just now, but he hadn’t changed back yet!
So he turned back into a human form, stood up and said to Li Zhenran, “You can’t even recognize me?!”
“Oh—” Li Zhenran said, “I thought where did the wild cat come from, it turned out to be you.”
Li Zhenruo grabbed Li Zhenran’s arm, “Li Zhentai wants someone to take his biological parents away, and then kill them.”
Li Zhenran said, “Well, just as I thought.”
“The police have come here just now, but Li Zhentai hasn’t turned against them yet. The police left after asking a few questions. Now they have been alerted, he wants to take the people and move.”
Li Zhenran nodded, “I’ve thought about it, you get in the car with me first.”
Li Zhenruo knew that Li Zhentai and the others might have noticed them here, so he followed Li Zhenran into the car.
Li Zhenran said to Li Zhenruo while driving, “It is impossible for them to enter the city from here. The only possibility is to go out of the city through the toll station in front of them, there are police officers there to check the passing vehicles.”
Li Zhenruo was stunned for a moment, “Did you tell the police?”
Li Zhenran shook his head, “I found a friend from the branch. He asked his subordinates to entangle them.”
Li Zhenruo said, “The questioning didn’t work either, and Li Zhentai has no plans to do it yet.”
Li Zhenran turned to look at him, “But one of the two men with Li Zhenran is a wanted criminal.”
“Wanted?”
Li Zhenran picked up the phone, rummaged through it, and threw it to Li Zhenruo.
Li Zhenruo saw that there was a candid photo above, that was a tall and thin man.
Li Zhenran said, “They were secretly photographed just now. I asked them to check the identities of these two men, but I accidentally found out that this man fled after robbery and murder and had been on the police’s wanted list, and then I told the police friend at the branch.”
Li Zhenruo quietly looked at the photo for a while, looked up at Li Zhenran and said, “This man is the one who killed me at that time.”
Li Zhenran suddenly stepped on the brakes.
Li Zhenruo handed the phone back to him, “I know he was acting at the behest of Li Zhentai, I should hate Li Zhentai more.”
Li Zhenran said, “Okay, they will all be punished.”
