Chapter 256 Breakup
Li Ran smiled, and Duanmu also smiled. Li Ran, the old fox, understood the rules between them. If it was just a job for Nemo, with Duanmu's strong personality, he would not have asked the bodyguard A department to come out. Either Duanmu thought the project was very dangerous, or Duanmu thought the project was very profitable. Duanmu had to show some sincerity.

Is he sincere? Of course he is. Xue Bing is also a ruthless person. After learning about the situation, she did not wait for Feidi to make a move. She decided to take the initiative. She did not have many people she could trust, but she had money and property, so she immediately targeted Duanmu, the special forces captain who could compete with Feidi.

In addition to asking the special forces to be responsible for her safety, Xue Bing also asked the special forces to help her regain control of all industries, which involved a lot of people and things. In the past few years, because of her love with Feidi, Xue Bing still controlled the industry in name and law, but in fact, all the people around her were replaced by Feidi's people. To put it bluntly, she didn't even have anyone to serve her.

She would not beg Fidi to forgive her past, because that would be like handing her fate over to Fidi to arbitrate. She also knew that there were many of Fidi's assets in her industry, but since it had come to this, she might as well just swallow up Fidi's assets.

Xue Bing naturally didn't think that she could just spend some money to ask Special Agent Duanmu to settle everything. She was willing to hand over all of Feidi's assets to Special Agent Captain Duanmu, and could even cede some of her own assets.

This is why Duanmu had previously asked Cui Jian not to come up with ideas to kill people randomly, because major emergencies would reverse and confuse the situation. Because of Xue Bing's derailment and his resolute style, all forces were caught in a fog. Coupled with Duanmu's greedy mouth and his true strength surfacing, everything became uncontrollable.

The world never follows anyone's script. No matter how perfect the plan is, accidents will always happen.

Diudiu asked: "By day or by hour? If by day, we can start work right away after we agree on the price."

Zhu Zhenzhen: "Sister Diu, you really work hard."

Diudiu chuckled.

Li Ran said, "Since you have no objection, I will appoint Duanmu as the team leader. Cui Jian, you do not have the right to carry a gun, so you will not be involved in the project for the time being. I will contact a lawyer to handle the formalities. As long as Xue Bing's signature is available, there is no need for the prosecutor to intervene. You can start work tomorrow at the earliest, or the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Cui Jian nodded: "Okay."

Duanmu said: "Manager Li, I may need to call in eight bodyguards from Division B."

Li Ran: "Okay, I'll give you the recommendation list later. Let's get back to work, Cui Jian, let's have a drink."

Several people left in a hurry. In the box, Cui Jian changed his seat and sat next to Li Ran, pouring coconut juice for Li Ran. Li Ran asked, "Did you notice the expression on Duanmu's face?"

"what expression?"

Li Ran said: "The excited expression when facing a life-and-death battle. It seems that he is not an employee, but the boss."

Cui Jian explained: "This group of people are extremely loyal to the special forces captain. It is said that they were all rescued by the captain when they were in trouble and are willing to be commanded by the captain."

Li Ran: "Including that Susan."

Cui Jian nodded.

"Haha, based on my understanding of Bai Qi, Susan should be Bai Qi's person." Li Ran said, "You have to be careful of Susan's dirty tricks."

Cui Jian said: "What is Bai Qi's personality?"

Li Ran said, "He has a personality of making good use of waste. His famous saying is: Even enemies can be used in different ways. He defeated Susan in the competition for the captain of the execution team, so he is even less likely to abandon Susan. Bai Qi is very cunning. If he makes any low-level mistakes, it is a flaw he left intentionally. You have to pay attention to this threat."

Cui Jian asked: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I can't go to work until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Li Ran said: "Don't worry, Bai Qi is used to planning before acting. He has a shortcoming, he always likes to use the most appropriate method to solve the problem. For example, in this matter, Bai Qi should find a way to negotiate first, hoping that Feidi will let go of the past grudges and that Xue Bing can maintain the status quo. He will work in this direction first. Having said that, Xue Bing is really a ruthless person. He dared to turn against Feidi just a few hours after being out of danger." Although Feidi doesn't know it yet.

Cui Jian said: "Perhaps no one knows Feidi better than her. Manager Li, I don't understand one thing, why do these people who do big things still fall into love affairs? Why do they do things that harm their own interests because of love affairs?" On the one hand, it is Xue Bing, who is tied to Feidi's interests, but also has an affair with Li Liang. On the other hand, it is Feidi, who is a big man after all, and has his own interests, why would he care about the gains and losses of a woman?
Li Ran replied: "Your idea is wrong. What do men pursue? Nothing more than power, fame, money, women and achievements. Women talk about love to a large extent. You can analyze the people around you and see if they can jump out of these five boxes?"

Cui Jian did not comment. Even someone like Cui Jian who has an unconventional belief hopes to reduce the crime rate of transnational human trafficking through his actions. This is achievement. It's just that because of his belief, he integrates his personal achievement into the collective achievement.

Li Ran said, "Take our CEO Ye's background as an example. Suppose she has a close lover, and now she is forced to marry someone else for business interests. Will she give up her relationship with this man? CEO Ye's ambition is achievement and power. After she has power and achievement, love becomes what she desires most."

Li Ran: "Similarly, if she marries for love, she may neglect love and work harder in her career."

Li Ran changed the subject and asked, "Do you think Department A needs to expand? I plan to set up two teams, five people in each, with Diudiu and Duanmu as team leaders."

Cui Jian nodded: "I agree." One hundred people will do.

Li Ran was about to say something when he received a call and walked aside to answer it. After a while, Li Ran came back and poured coconut juice for Cui Jian: "Bai Qi asked me to meet him. Haha, he is like this. He tries not to fall out with people of certain value. Because of this, it is easy to lose the initiative. I am afraid he doesn't know that Xue Bing has made a decision."

The two chatted for another twenty minutes. Bai Qi went to the box and Cui Jian chatted with him for a few minutes about gossip before getting up to leave.

Bai Qi asked, "Old Li, what's going on? I have already arranged a bodyguard for Xue Bing, why do I need to hire a bodyguard from you?"

Li Ran said: "You should ask Xue Bing."

Bai Qi: "If you could have asked me, you would have asked me earlier. She is not feeling well right now." What surprised Bai Qi was that Susan got Xue Bing's permission to enter the ward and talk to Xue Bing, and she has not left the ward yet. Then she found out about Xue Bing's project of hiring bodyguards from Department A. He couldn't connect the dots for a while. There was too little information, so he decided to talk to Li Ran first.

In Bai Qi's opinion, there is nothing that cannot be discussed. If there is, it is that the gap in strength between the two sides is too big and there is no need to waste time.

Xue Bing thus seized the initiative. After Unit A arrived at Xue Bing's ward, Xue Bing immediately asked the bodyguards around him to leave the car keys and withdraw to Xue's house. The head bodyguard immediately contacted Bai Qi, who contacted Xue Bing. Xue Bing told him that she thought there was a traitor in the bodyguard team, so she made such arrangements. She hoped that Bai Qi would screen the bodyguard team as soon as possible, and she wanted to know the results tomorrow. At the same time, she appointed Susan as the housekeeper of the Xue family to cooperate with Bai Qi to investigate the traitor, hoping that Bai Qi would follow Susan's arrangements.

This combination of punches made Bai Qi a little confused. As the general manager, he had to agree to the boss Xue Bing's request, at least he agreed to it on the phone. Susan was next to Xue Bing, and the two sides agreed to meet at Xue's house, asking Bai Qi to ask all employees including Ye Rannuo to return to Xue's house overnight to be on standby.

……

After leaving the dinner, Cui Jian returned to his villa. Without a gun on him, he was quite alert along the way. Fortunately, he did not see any suspicious vehicles or people.

I went back to the villa to take a shower and prepare to play a single-player game for a while when Yu Ming called me: "Jianjian, shall we have supper together tonight or lunch tomorrow?"

This is Liu Sheng's matter, Cui Jian replied: "I'm at home, come over?"

Yu Ming didn’t really like going to other people’s houses to discuss things, so he asked, “Night fishing?”

Cui Jian: "Okay, I'll prepare some snacks." Yu Ming: "I want meat."

Cui Jian: “I know.”

Yu Mingdao: "I'll prepare the drinks, or Pepsi?"

Cui Jian: “Ice.”

Yu Ming: “OK.”

Cui Jian changed into casual clothes and drove to his old fishing spot. He preferred to fish for sea fish rather than freshwater fish. He took out two sets of hand poles, put one aside, and prepared the other, hung diced frozen shrimp on it, and everything was done.

Fifteen minutes later, Yu Ming drove up and untied his fishing rod while chatting. He also opened a few boxes and asked, "What kind of meat?"

"Braised pig's feet, large intestines, bean curd sticks, duck gizzards, etc." Cui Jian opened a can of iced cola and added, "It has been braised for a while and placed in the freezer. When I took it out, I heated it in a pot and added chili powder and stirred it."

"Good stuff." After Yu Ming got down from the pole, he couldn't wait to pick up a few slices of beef and put them into his mouth. The beef had some tendons and was very good.

After chatting for a while, Yu Ming finally got to the point and said, "Liu Sheng went to Kyoto. We filmed him leaving the airport and getting into a taxi. We haven't heard from him since. According to our investigation, he had contact with a woman named Kojima Xing from the Golden Dragon Society. Kojima Xing is 45 years old this year. She is not an orthodox member of the Golden Dragon Society. She opened a financial company and relied on the Golden Dragon Society to collect debts. Later, she became a middle-level cadre of the Golden Dragon Society. Not long ago, after Jiro took back the Golden Dragon Society, she retained her status as a middle-level cadre and also opened Kojima Financial Company."

Yu Ming: "It's interesting that this financial company has been in a state of loss for many years."

Cui Jian asked in surprise: "Oh?"

Yu Ming explained: "I don't know if Xiaodao An has a problem with her brain, or if she is just too chaste. Every year, she makes several loans to very strange targets, such as companies on the verge of bankruptcy and shell companies that have just been established."

Cui Jian asked: "Where does she get the money to fill the hole?"

Yu Ming replied, "Xiaodao Xing grew up in India and returned to Japan to start a business at the age of 30. You are curious, and so are the people of the Golden Dragon Society. It is said that Xiaodao Xing is not sensitive to money. A senior executive of the Golden Dragon Society mentioned it when he was drunk. Xiaodao Xing was once violated by a senior official in India. The condition for the reconciliation between the two parties is that the senior official must provide Xiaodao Xing with a sum of money every year until Xiaodao Xing or the senior official dies. In order to avoid being assassinated, Xiaodao Xing is also a mysterious figure who can't be seen from head to tail."

Cui Jian: “How much?”

Yu Ming shook his head: "I don't know, I didn't investigate that deeply." Otherwise, he would have to investigate Xiaodao Xing's situation in India and how many overseas accounts she has.

Cui Jian asked: "And then nothing happened?"

Yu Ming sighed: "No more."

Cui Jian asked: "Is this news worth three thousand?"

Yu Ming smiled bitterly: "I'll do it."

Cui Jian: "Don't give me that. How much is it?"

Yu Ming said: "Fifty thousand dollars. A loss-making price."

Cui Jian did not respond immediately. Instead, he picked up the fishing rod, pulled up a fish three fingers wide, put the bait back into the water, and said, "Are you lying? Why are you lying? The only possibility is that it is related to the investigator organization."

Yu Ming is good at lying, but he feels guilty. After all, he has a special relationship with Cui Jian, so he did not hide it. "Yes, we have a very important discovery. I want to discuss with you. Do you think the investigation of Liu Sheng can be temporarily terminated? Once the organization thinks it can be explained, I will explain it to you immediately. Believe me, it will only benefit you, not harm you."

Yu Ming said "you guys" instead of "you", which made Cui Jian very concerned. Cui Jian pondered for a moment and asked, "Okay, return the down payment to me, and the compensation of 50,000 will be deposited into my account."

Yu Ming: "I got you 100,000 yuan."

There were stars in Cui Jian's eyes: "Mingming, you are so nice to me."

Yu Ming waved his hand proudly: "It's a small matter. Anyway, you will have to pay back the money with interest when the time comes."

Cui Jian's eyes tightened: "Did you find out something related to us?"

Yu Ming did not deny it: "Kyoto is not big, but there are a lot of things. Now that we have fish, we should start a fire, right?"

"Without the ingredients, the dry grilled fish won't taste good." Cui Jian wisely ended the topic and said, "Can you spare some time to go out to sea next week?"

Yu Ming said: "I'm not free recently. The organization asked me to be on standby."

Cui Jian: "Because of Kyoto?"

Yu Ming: "No, just an hour ago, a client contacted us and might want to do something big in Europe. I will need to support my colleagues in Europe at that time."

Cui Jian did not ask any further questions. The two of them drank Coke, ate braised meat, fished, chatted, and enjoyed the cool evening breeze, enjoying life.

……

The next morning, the charges against Cui Jian were dropped, and Cui Jian returned to the company to pick up his gun and join Xue Bing's project. Because Xue Bing was a woman and was still recovering from her injuries, Cui Jian and Duanmu separated, and Cui Jian's partner was Zhu Zhenzhen. Cui Jian was a little skeptical about this assignment, and Duanmu explained that he had to keep Zhao Ai under his own eyes.

In the Prince Project, Duanmu was also the team leader, but he did not take Zhao Ai seriously. Comparing the two, Cui Jian seemed to have discovered something remarkable: Duanmu did not care whether the prince lived or died. He also said that if the prince died, he would pay for everyone's remuneration. I didn't feel anything before, but now after comparing and thinking about it, either Duanmu also wanted to kill the prince, or Duanmu really wanted to save Xue Bing, or Duanmu not only wanted to kill the prince, but also wanted to save Xue Bing.

It doesn’t matter. Although Cui Jian rarely partners with Zhenzhen, he likes partnering with Zhenzhen.

"Stand here first." Cui Jian said, and walked to the side where the nurse sat on a chair and played with her phone, leaving Zhu Zhenzhen standing alone at the door of the ward.
