Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Chapter 56: The Net is Closing In


Now that the plan has developed to this point, there's just the most critical step left.

Since Lei Hu dares to handle these dirty things, it means he's ready to pay a painful price for his crimes at any time.

"Xiaofan, we've reached this step, why don't we release the people first?" Ouyang Xiong knew the plan only up to this point. He doesn't know what to do next.

"Brother Xiong, these few video recordings aren't enough to bring down Lei Hu. If he denies or finds a scapegoat, he'll cause trouble again in a few days. So what we need to do is take down Lei Hu and his entire gang." Xiaofan said spiritedly.

"What? Take them all down?" Ouyang Xiong stared at Xiaofan with wide eyes, not believing that a high schooler could say such a thing.

He has been fighting against Lei Hu for several years already, but there was never a way to bring Lei Hu down. But now, this boy not only said it but seems very confident about it.

"What do we need to do next?" Ouyang Xiong asked again.

"Wait."

"Wait?"

"Yes, sealing off seven of our venues at once probably cost Lei Hu a fortune, right? Do you think those goods come for free? Bringing out that much at once, they definitely lack stock. To recover their money, they'll make another deal soon, and it'll be a big one. Then, we'll grab them with the evidence. Even if Lei Hu wants to deny it, he can't."

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood. One by one, they couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Xiaofan. Especially Ouyang Xiong, who was once again amazed by Xiaofan's smartness. This reminded him of Xiaofan's words when the venue got into trouble the day before: This might be a huge turning point.

It shows that Xiaofan had already thought about the development reaching this point at that time. It indicates just how strong this guy's thinking ability is.

"Xiaofan, according to your plan, it should be the police taking action, but we don't know when Lei Hu will make the trade, right?" Ouyang Xiong asked, puzzled.

"Hmm? There will be a way to find out," Xiaofan said with a slight smirk at the corner of his mouth, full of confidence.

"By the way, you had me buy an extra listening device and camera earlier, what are those for?" Long only now reacted.

"Hehe, let me keep a little secret for now," Xiaofan said with a mischievous smile.

Everyone didn't feel any anger at Xiaofan's smile, instead they felt rather reassured by it.

'Ring ring ring.' At this moment, Xiaofan's phone rang.

Picking up the phone for a look at the caller ID, Xiaofan gestured to everyone to quiet down before answering the call.

"Hello."

"Day after tomorrow at 2:30 am, warehouse number four by Ruming Bridge. Money transaction for eight million."

"Wow, Lei Hu actually has that much money. Hmm, thank you for your hard work, get some rest early." The latter part was said rather gently by Xiaofan.

"Hey, you better remember your promise. I helped you with this, and this Sunday you're going to accompany me shopping, and it's for the whole day." The voice on the other end cautioned.

"Alright, I will fulfill my promise to you. Be careful on your way back." Xiaofan's tone was still very caring.

"Hmm. When you come back later, get me some tofu pudding and a KFC meal."

"Why don't you just pack it yourself now?" Xiaofan asked, puzzled.

"I don't feel like eating now, okay?" With that, the call was hung up.

This time Xiaofan had to ask Shen Zuimo to help. With her skills and ability, sneaking into Lei Hu's office was simply a piece of cake. And the listening device and camera Long asked about were given to Shen Zuimo.

Everything was under Xiaofan's control, and that kid Lei Hu was really desperate. He dared to trade the day after tomorrow when the situation hasn't even cooled down, his guts are really big.

"Xiaofan? Isn't your sister-in-law downstairs? Why not just call out if there's anything, do you have to make a call?" Seeing Xiaofan's gentle expression, Ouyang Xiong thought the call was from Chen Mengying.

"Haha, it's not her. It's someone else. Well, Brother Xiong, the time and place have been determined. Next, you need to contact those big bosses behind Lei Hu. When Lei Hu falls, you can take over all his turf immediately." Xiaofan said happily.

"Huh? Just one call and you know the time and place? Amazing." Ouyang Xiong exclaimed.

"Oh right, tomorrow I'll have Brother Fei call Lin Miaoke. Brother Xiong, when you take Lei Hu's territory, you'll be busy, so have a good sleep tonight. Oh, and the college entrance exam is coming up, after this is over, I want to ask for leave with Meng Ying, and return to work after the exam. You see..." He sees the college entrance exam is near, and he can be indifferent, but watching Chen Mengying having no energy every day in the classroom, how can she have the energy to review her coursework?

"Kid, you're being too formal. What leave, just say it and it will be settled." Ouyang Xiong waved his hand, saying.

"Haha, thank you Brother Xiong, I haven't slept well for several days. I want to head back first tonight."

"Hmm, go ahead."

Having gained Brother Xiong's permission, Xiaofan shook his head with a bitter smile, dragging his weary body out the door.

"Xiaofan."

Just as Xiaofan was about to leave, Ouyang Xiong called him.

"Why not skip the college entrance exam and stay with the brothers to fight it out? It's just money, even if you graduate from college, you might not find a great job. At least a yearly salary of half a million is better than working outside." Wanting to keep Xiaofan again, Ouyang Xiong added: "If we really bring down Lei Hu, it wouldn't just be half a million, even a million would be within reach."

After hearing this, Xiaofan turned his head back, smiling at Ouyang Xiong: "I never said I don't consider everyone as brothers. But I always feel that life's experiences should include the college entrance exam. I don't want to leave myself too many regrets. I'm leaving."

Dropping this sentence, Xiaofan walked slowly out the door.

"Hahaha, this kid. I'm really starting to like him more and more." Ouyang Xiong laughed out loud in the room. Xiaofan's words about treating everyone as brothers also made Ouyang Xiong feel particularly gratified.

What are brothers? Xiaofan hasn't had much understanding of this kind of relationship. He is the only child in his family. Although he has two uncles, who each have children, apart from a few childhood meetings, they rarely went back to their grandfather's place as they grew older. With fewer meetings, naturally, there aren't many sentiments.

But after spending time with Ouyang Xiong and Fei, Xiaofan found out what this so-called brotherly feeling is. Pledging loyalty, being ready to sacrifice, stepping into dangerous situations without hesitation—these descriptions aren't just something seen only in movies. Actually, gangsters and delinquents aren't as terrifying as people think; ruthless is just the surface; sometimes they're quite simple, and their smiles can be as pure as that of a child's.
