Chapter 149 Black Widow
As a gentleman, Duanmu let go of the belt in his hand at the last moment, fell from five meters and rolled several times on the beach, and the pistol was thrown far away. The masked woman picked up the pistol in front of her and pointed it at Duanmu, who knelt on the ground in silence. The masked woman took a knife in her left hand to cut off the child star's cable tie handcuffs and took out a tube of tape from her back pocket.
The child star was unable to resist and was quickly tied up and thrown onto a beach buggy. The masked woman looked over the cliff and asked, "Hey, where are my companions?"
The sea breeze was strong, and Duanmu asked loudly: "Blackbird?"
The masked woman nodded.
Duanmu covered his injured abdomen with one hand and said with a smile: "They are taking a bath."
The masked woman stepped forward and kicked Duanmu over. Duanmu climbed up and looked up at the cliff. The masked woman subconsciously turned her head to look. Cui Jian was seen sliding down from the rope with a belt. The height was 50 meters and the angle was 55 degrees. Question: How long is the rope?
Regardless of the number, Cui Jian rolled forward after landing, hugged the masked woman's waist, and used inertia to press her under him. Then he flipped his body, and with the power of his waist and arms, he threw the masked woman several meters away and smashed her onto the beach car. Then Cui Jian quickly stood up and kicked the masked woman unconscious with his back. During this period, although the masked woman resisted, her explosive power was limited by the close proximity, and she could not hit the vital parts quickly, so she was beaten unilaterally by Cui Jian.
Cui Jian pulled the child star off the beach buggy, dragged his bound legs and quickly ran behind a large reef more than ten meters away.
Duanmu staggered over while cursing, but Cui Jian couldn't hear what he was cursing because the wind was too loud. He pulled out his pistol, threw away the magazine, replaced it with a new one, and pointed the gun with both hands at the cliff.
Soon two gangsters appeared on the cliff. Cui Jian fired continuously, and the two fell down. One of them shot down from a prone position. Poor Duanmu's calf was hit by a bullet and he fell forward behind the reef.
Cui Jian crouched and walked to the left, leaning against the reef, where he could see half of the rope below. After waiting for a while, a gangster slid down from above. Cui Jian knelt on one knee, held the gun with both hands and fired continuously, and the gangster's body fell to the sand. Cui Jian changed the magazine and continued to wait.
Duanmu tore off the tape on Tong Xing's mouth. Tong Xing looked at Duanmu's wound with concern. Duanmu stuffed the intestines back and comforted him: "It's okay, the intestines are just broken."
The child star vomited immediately and lay on the sand vomiting repeatedly.
Cui Jian continued to shoot and killed another one: "Boss, help me."
Yiyi: “They left two people behind, and the others ran back to the van and drove away.”
Soon, a gangster slid down from the rope, holding the belt with one hand and sliding down, while holding the AK rifle with the other hand, he kept firing at the left side of the reef, forcing Cui Jian to retreat. Cui Jian stood up decisively, fired two shots and retreated. The accuracy of using the AK rifle to change the target with one hand was very low. When the gangster turned the muzzle of the gun towards Cui Jian, Cui Jian had retreated and fired three more shots to the left side, one of which hit the gangster. The gangster did not die after falling, but rolled to the right twice, and held the gun to suppress the left side of the reef.
Under his cover, the second gangster landed smoothly. The two sides were 15 meters apart. Cui Jian and his three men had a reef shelter, and the two gangsters had automatic rifles. This led to a shooting situation that Cui Jian hated, and what was even more annoying was that his own firepower could not compare with the other side.
Cui Jian is highly dependent on the terrain and has no advantage in field combat. However, the two gangsters he faces have considerable combat experience, and with the advantage of weapons in their hands, Cui Jian and his two companions are in a dilemma.
Following several gunshots, the masked woman's voice was heard: "They are dead."
Cui Jianlu looked over and saw the masked woman holding a pistol, standing behind the two gangsters. The masked woman said, "In exchange, I hope you can do me a favor."
Duanmu seemed to know what the masked woman wanted. He leaned against the reef and shouted, "Your companion may have died. Even if he is not dead, he should be injured and can't run away."
The masked woman opened her tight training uniform, pulled out a business card from her chest and flew it towards Cui Jian: "If they are still alive and need to stand trial, contact me and you can make some money."
Cui Jian grabbed the business card with a phone number on it, put it away and said, "We are responsible for the girl's safety these days. Please don't attack her again."
"Of course." The masked woman glanced at the child star who had revealed his head and said, "My name is Black Widow. See you again if we are lucky enough."
"Goodbye."
Black Widow got on a four-wheeled dune buggy and drove away with the engine roaring.
……
What can I say? Duan and Cui fight bloody battles every day. The company has only been open for a few months, and it is like the front line, with exchanges of fire at every turn. Cui Jiangang went to the hospital a few days ago, and now it is Duanmu's turn. As a manager, Li Ran is under a lot of pressure. I wanted to find some retirement projects for them, but I didn't expect to blow up two nests at once. The kidnappers and killers are all here.
Sitting outside the operating room, Li Ran was feeling overwhelmed. Looking at Cui Jian, who seemed fine beside him, he seemed to see the light of death.
Cui Jian: Stupid X, this is called the guardian angel’s light.
Ye Lan also rushed to the hospital and asked about Duanmu's condition. Li Ran told her to be at ease, and that the preliminary examination before the operation showed that it was a penetrating wound, and that no vital parts were injured, and that the intestines could be sewed and patched.
Ye Lan was puzzled. Wouldn't penetration be more serious? Li Ran explained that if a bullet enters the body and hits a hard object, such as bone, it may change the trajectory of the bullet, causing a larger internal wound and a higher risk.
Ye Lan didn't want to know so much, and said: "Manager Li, it's not good to have accidents so frequently, can you change it?"
Li Ran asked: "How to change?"
Ye Lan said, "We will increase the two-fold project fee to five times. Before we move the company, we will focus on stability and will not recruit new bodyguards for the time being. Besides, we are qualified, right?"
Li Ran pondered for a moment: "When I was chatting with my friends a few days ago, a friend suggested that the bodyguard alliance hold a competition. It seems that the six overseas alliance companies are interested in sharing the cake of Hancheng." Originally, the business of Hancheng was not much different from that of other cities, but it couldn't resist the evil of some people. The Four Birds rioted in Han, the Seven Killers slaughtered the island, and now the northern circle gangsters have appeared. The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish.
Ye Lan became interested: "How do we compare?"
Li Ran said, "With current technology, there won't be any problems with laser training equipment. As for how to compete? As usual, outsource it to a game company and let them design the levels. However, the competition was just a casual mention by a few people, and as to whether it can be held, we still need to communicate with your boss."
"Okay, I'll communicate." Ye Lan glanced at Cui Jian, who was leaning against the wall and browsing on his phone, and walked over to greet him: "Are you okay?"
Cui Jian didn't even raise his head, concentrating on watching the video of the Indian bus speeding: "It's okay." This is what an experienced driver does.
Ye Lan: "Manager Li is watching over here, do you want to go get some midnight snack together?"
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Ye. I'm not hungry." Cui Jian put away his phone and looked at Ye Lan, comforting her, "He won't die."
Ye Lan nodded: "Well, be more careful at work in the future."
Cui Jian was stunned and asked, "Why should I be careful?" This is not a math problem. Once you do it, you will do it. What's the point of being careful?
Ye Lan was stumped by the question. Seeing Cui Jian's sincere questioning look, she answered helplessly, "Just be careful."
"Oh." Cui Jian nodded, confused, and suddenly alarm bells rang in his heart. The last time Ye Lan said something inexplicable, she kissed him. Thinking of this, Cui Jian immediately took a step back, his face full of vigilance.
Ye Lan didn't understand, but she didn't intend to understand, and said, "I need to attend an engagement party for the Lin and Li families on Sunday. Are you free to accompany me?"
Cui Jian shook his head: "I'm busy." Ye Lan: "Why?" Didn't we agree on this?
"Why?" The answer is simple: You didn't pay me, so why should I accompany you? But Cui Jian had to be proud, so he could directly offer a price to Duan Mu, but not to Ye Lan. Cui Jian said tactfully: "Look, something happened recently, and I lost two suits."
Ye Lan slapped her forehead and immediately said, "I'll arrange for a tailor to make you a suit and shoes."
Cui Jian asked: "Is he the kind of tailor who uses a ruler to measure and then cuts the cloth?" He looked disdainful.
Ye Lan said: "That's how haute couture is made."
Cui Jian shook his head: "What a waste of time, I'd better buy it myself on the way home." Give me money, sister.
Ye Lan said patiently: "Attending certain banquets requires high-standard clothes."
Cui Jian: "Everyone knows that I am a bodyguard, why do I need to wear clothes that do not match the values of my job?"
Ye Lan felt that Cui Jian's words made sense. Cui Jian's normal attire would definitely not match her outfit, but no one would think that Cui Jian was a gigolo. If she and Cui Jian, who was dressed up, attended the event together, people in the circle would quickly know that her male companion was a bodyguard and could not hide it.
Ahaha, it seems that this is the biggest problem of mismatch. The root of the problem is that Cui Jian is not interested in being a gigolo. If Cui Jian is not a gigolo, then I have no value to Cui Jian. Why would Cui Jian be interested in me who has no time and is busy with work? If Cui Jian is a gigolo, how can I let Cui Jian continue to work as a dangerous bodyguard?
Ye Lan asked tentatively: "Cui Jian, if you are willing to resign, I..."
Cui Jian interrupted, incredulous: "You want to fire me?"
"No, I'm talking about our relationship." Ye Lan felt that the more she explained, the worse it got, so she asked directly, "Are you willing to work in business management?"
Cui Jian replied: "I don't want to. By the way, what is our relationship?"
Ye Lan: "It's a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship."
Cui Jian immediately blurted out: "What the hell do you want?"
Ye Lan immediately stomped her feet and pointed a finger: "What did you say? What's that expression on your face? What gives you the right to look disgusted?" She was so angry that she kicked Cui Jian's calf, but the other party didn't move at all. It was like kicking a iron plate. She bent over in pain and almost cried.
Cui Jian hurriedly explained: "Boss, we may have a misunderstanding. I never agreed to your courtship."
Ye Lan was furious and stood up straight despite the pain: "I didn't ask you for love, we just negotiated to be a couple."
Cui Jian decisively replied, "No negotiation." He finally understood why he didn't receive a check even though he saved Ye Lan from Han Ren. It's not known whether a beautiful woman can bring disaster, but she can definitely bring financial trouble.
Ye Lan nearly bit her teeth off: "I think so too." She turned around and walked away. She wanted to make a loud stomping sound with her shoes to show her strength, but suddenly she remembered that she was still in the hospital, so she immediately controlled her footing and almost sprained her ankle.
Cui Jian took out his phone and searched for the term "agreement boyfriend" and soon found the answer. The so-called agreement boyfriend usually refers to an agreement signed between a girl from a wealthy family and a man who is unwilling to marry for the sake of a family alliance or to get rid of a suitor. It usually includes terms such as monthly expenses and boyfriend obligations.
The criteria for a contract boyfriend: self-aware, good-looking, from a poor family, with outstanding education, and meager income, etc.
Li Ran was watching the farce with a smile. When he saw Cui Jian searching for the boyfriend in the agreement, he asked with a smile, "How much do you give you every month?"
Cui Jian said: "No agreement was signed and no money was paid." It was a big loss.
Li Ran said: "There are many Li family members, and we can definitely find a dozen elites. Each of these elites can be responsible for a business direction. The Ye family and the Li family coexist, and the population is small. To maintain this family business, the Ye family needs to work ten times harder. Take Ye Wen as an example. Although he is married and has children outside, he spends very little time on love and educating his children."
Cui Jian: “Maybe it’s just genetic influence.”
Li Ran knew that Cui Jian wanted to change the subject, and said, "Being in love with Ye Lan is not a good thing for you. Unless you are really short of money, she can't give you what a girlfriend can give you."
Cui Jian spread his hands indifferently.
During the chat, the operating lights went out and Duanmu was pushed out. He was currently in the postoperative state. The so-called postoperative state means that he was awakened after the operation and his consciousness was not very clear.
Li Ran and Cui Jian looked at Duanmu and turned away, asking the doctor about the situation. The doctor's answer was the same as the previous diagnosis, and he would have to throw away about 15 centimeters of intestines, and could only eat liquid food without any irritation for the next week.
Cui Jian asked excitedly, "When will we open the laparotomy and remove the stitches?"
The doctor replied: "No need to remove the stitches, they will be absorbed by the body."
Cui Jian said with some regret: "Is that so."
Li Ran looked at Cui Jian, and Cui Jian explained: "He ate barbecue in front of me last time." Just because he didn't mention it last time doesn't mean he has forgotten it.
Li Ran asked: "Do you want to accompany me?"
Cui Jian replied: "Of course not."
Li Ran: "You and I will be responsible for the last few days of work for the child star."
Cui Jian said: "I can do it alone."
Li Ran was not polite: "Call me if you need anything."
The next day, Cui Jian picked up the child star from another hospital. Ye Rannuo had not returned home in recent days, and Cui Jian had gotten used to living alone. Following Li Ran's suggestion, Cui Jian first took the child star to his home. The reason was that after the criminals had failed, they would have to make full preparations if they wanted to attack the child star again. Moving the child star would allow them to adjust their personnel arrangements and start the investigation again.
After two ordeals in three days, Tong Xing's personality has changed dramatically. She no longer deliberately behaves arrogantly. But she also doesn't try to please Cui Jian. She tries to get along with Cui Jian as a friend with a mature mindset. She wants to make friends with such a small amount of project money? Cui Jian told her to eat shit. Between Cui Jian and Duanmu, Tong Xing is closer to Duanmu. Duanmu was shot yesterday because he was protecting her, and he kept comforting her when she was scared.
Compared to the casual Cui Jian, Duanmu is more approachable. Cui Jian gives her the feeling of an indifferent but trustworthy friend, while Duanmu gives her the feeling of a brother.
On the third day, Cui Jian took the child star to the villa. The villa's supporting furniture had been basically completed, and customized cabinets were currently being assembled. They would be able to move in in two days.
During this period, the child star visited Duanmu and had lunch with Cui Jian in the ward. The lunch was boiled beef and rice.
On the fourth day, the child star lived in his own villa.
On the fifth day, Cui Jian sent the child star to the escape room crew to complete the project.
