I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 387: Agreement between Three People

At the same time, by the covered bridge.

The man squatting in the dark shook the rain off his face and said, "Boss, it's raining too hard. I can't hit you at all."

"You're fucking useless, so what excuses are you looking for?"

As he spoke, the man called the boss raised the sniper rifle in his hand and aimed at Shen Qingyu in the heavy rain.

"boom--"

With a gunshot, the bullet pierced through the rain curtain and hit a stone pillar thousands of miles away without any connection.

"..."

"Damn it! What a rubbish gun!" The man cursed and closed his hood, his eyes fierce. "What are you looking at? Why don't you chase him? If you let that fat sheep get away, all my work this year will be for nothing."

"Yes."

None of his men dared to act strangely. They put on their helmets in unison, loaded their guns, and rushed towards the covered bridge.

Shen Qingyu looked back and calmly quickened his speed.

"Come on!"

The base of the bridge corridor is a stone bridge, with a wooden pavilion on top and blue-gray eaves facing the sky on all sides.

Bullets flew indiscriminately in the rainstorm. In order to intimidate Shen Qingyu, the pirates ran and shot at the same time.

Shen Qingyu did not take the threat behind him seriously, because all this was part of their plan.

He came specifically to warn Zhou Yanheng in order to lure out these pirates. According to the plan, Shen Guiling should have already instigated Zhou Yanheng's lackeys to rebel, and now they are lying in ambush under the stone bridge on the other side. As long as he can successfully lure them over, these pirates will be trapped.

Their plans were closely linked and could not afford any mistakes, because the highlight of tonight was not the pirates, but the traitor within the Shen family.

They must clear the pirates and Zhou Yanheng out of the battlefield as quickly as possible, otherwise if a three-way melee breaks out, they will have no chance of winning with their current manpower.

"Boss, he's getting off the bridge."

"Don't let him get away."

The chase between the two sides was very fierce, bullets were flying everywhere, and stray bullets ricocheted past Shen Qingyu's face by chance. In an instant, his heart was in suspense.

But at this critical moment of life and death, he had no time to be afraid. Shen Qingyu only paused for a second, and then continued to run towards the bridge with the belief that he would succeed.

Finally, he passed through the rain and bullets and reached the agreed ambush point.

"Shen Guiling!"

Shen Qingyu shouted as a signal.

"Boom——"

The only response he got was the rumbling of thunder.

Shen Qingyu was stunned and looked around, but there was no one at the bottom of the stone bridge.

How could this be?

"Boom-boom-"

The gunshots behind him were getting closer and closer. Shen Qingyu's face was gloomy and the emotions in his eyes were difficult to discern.

In this second, he thought about all the possibilities, but in the end he told himself that he must not be caught. Personal life and death are trivial matters, and he must not implicate others.

Shen Qingyu looked back at the stone pillar for the last time, made a quick choice, turned around and ran towards the gym.

The Pear Garden on the other side.

Shen Lanxi sat in her room watching the rain.

"Wow--"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew open the wooden window facing the courtyard.

Gao Zhi walked quickly into the room, "Master, they are here."

Shen Lanxi remained calm and slowly stood up. "Have you arranged everything for Shanshan and Mianzhi?"

Gao Zhi nodded, "Don't worry, Master."

In the current life-and-death situation, in order to avoid distracting Shen Lanxi, Gao Zhi automatically ignored the unpleasantness in the secret room.

Shen Lanxi no longer had any worries, "Then proceed as planned."

"Master." Gao Zhi hesitated for a moment, then stepped in front of Shen Lanxi and said, "Do you trust Master A Ling and Master Qing Yu so much?"

Two years ago, Shen Lanxi personally arrived in Nanwan and set up a trap to let Shen Guiling realize that he was investigating the assassination of Xiang Ying. Later, someone raided the hotel where Shen Lanxi was staying and killed the only hostage at the time. Taking this opportunity, Shen Guiling guessed what Shen Lanxi was planning, and the two of them made an appointment to have a drink in the name of their bodyguards.

That night, they arrived at South Bay Pier as promised.

Shen Lanxi wanted to catch the traitor who had tried to assassinate him over the years, and Shen Guiling wanted to bring that extremely hypocritical man down from the altar. Because they had the same goal, the two quickly formed an alliance.

Over the past two years, Shen Lanxi had experienced hundreds of assassination attempts, both large and small. As she grew stronger, she grew increasingly resentful of the feeling of being counterattacked. Coincidentally, Shen Guiling had relayed news that someone, having learned that the Gu family had invited a group of young people to a vacation at the North District Villa, had become impatient and sent the same assassins from Xiangying to repeat their tactics.

Shen Lanxi originally wanted to tell the old man about this, but these accusations were just groundless and there was no evidence to support them, so she couldn't do anything to that person.

So, after much thought, he decided to set up a trap to lure the person into a trap. When the time came, he would catch the person red-handed and there would be no room for the person to argue.

Considering that the other party is a professional killer, any mistake will have disastrous consequences. In order to be cautious, the day before leaving, Shen Lanxi specially asked Shen Guiling and Shen Qingyu to visit Lanyuan and laid out her plan.

When Shen Qingyu heard that they were going to catch a traitor, he temporarily put aside his personal grudges and chose to cooperate unconditionally.

Needless to say, Shen Guiling was very happy to cause trouble for Shen Qian.

They guessed that the killer would choose to act at night in order to remain secretive. In order not to alert the enemy, Shen Lanxi specially arranged for the secret support to set out in two groups.

Unexpectedly, plans cannot keep up with changes. There is a group of pirates lurking in the villa, and Zhou Yanheng may disrupt the situation at any time because of his grudge, but the most difficult thing is this rare rainstorm.

The rain ruined all of Shen Lanxi's plans before the trip. The signal was lost, and the secret support line might not arrive as planned.

In desperation, the three had to make new plans.

First, Shen Lanxi calmed the people and transferred everyone safely, then let Shen Qingyu act as bait to attract firepower, and work with Shen Guiling to clean up the pirates. Finally, wait for them to finish, take the pirates' weapons and come to support Shen Lanxi.

If the signal is interrupted, the secret agent will definitely notice something is wrong. Even if heavy rain blocks the way, they will definitely try their best to enter the mountains. So as long as they keep calm, things will turn around tonight.

This was the promise that Shen Lanxi, Shen Guiling, and Shen Qingyu had made to each other. Gao Zhi raised an objection at this time, and even though Shen Lanxi knew that he was being loyal, it was difficult for her to agree.

He frowned slightly, "Gao Zhi, this matter has already been discussed."

Gao Zhi glanced at Shen Lanxi and whispered, "That was something you discussed. I didn't agree to it."

"..." Shen Lanxi raised her eyes to look at him, "Do I need your consent?"

Gao Zhi stiffened his neck and said, "Why not? If anything happens to you, I'll be out of a job."

Where can he find such a good job then?

Shen Lanxi, "..."

"Young Master, you usually seem quite smart, so why are you so confused about this? Shen Guiling and Shen Qingyu are both from the Second House. What kind of people are in the Second House? Have you forgotten? If they hadn't bribed the doctor, you wouldn't have stayed in Qingxu Temple for eight years."

Shen Lanxi looked indifferent.

Gao Zhi took a deep breath and said, "Master, we must be on guard. The assassins are here, but the promised rescue team hasn't come yet. We can't just stick to this route."

Shen Lanxi remained silent and looked at Gao Zhi quietly.

Gao Zhi has been with him since he left home at the age of eight.

He was quiet, and Gao Zhi was afraid he might become depressed and speechless, so he caught a monkey every day and argued with it in front of him. Later, after a year of arguing, Gao Zhi found that he was still quiet. In order to prevent him from feeling like an outlier, Gao Zhi immediately adjusted his strategy and began to act deep, going from being a chatterbox to being very frugal with his words.

Tonight was the night he talked the most since returning to the Shen family.

After a moment of silence, Shen Lanxi finally spoke, "What do you want to say?"

Gao Zhi plopped down his hand and pulled out a small black box from his lining pocket.

"I want to say, Master, we should leave ourselves a way out! If they don't arrive in half an hour, you can't continue to take risks. This is the North District. As long as you press the black box, even if there is no signal, the satellite of the North District military camp will receive the distress message. They are your old subordinates and will spare no effort to come to your rescue. Compared to the two young men from the second house, they are more worthy of your trust."

This military order black box was the life-saving talisman that Shen Xi left to Shen Lanxi before his death. When Fu Suier was shot and dying, Shen Lanxi used the black box to contact Shen Zhuang.

He did not bring the black box when Shen Lanxi went out. Gao Zhi's appearance here at this time was obviously against his wishes.

But he didn't choose this moment to blame Gao Zhi. Instead, he asked him, "Do you know what the consequences will be if you alert the military?"

He was the orphan of a martyr. If his father's former subordinates knew that he was being persecuted by members of the Shen family, they would definitely unite and report him to the military, and the entire Shen family would be in trouble. Shen Lanxi took this into consideration, so even if she found out something over the years, she never made it public.

In his opinion, family disgrace should not be made public. No matter how vicious Shen Qian is, he is still a member of the Shen family. Tonight, he and his brothers have joined forces to catch the traitor. To put it bluntly, it is a family matter, but if outsiders intervene, the meaning will be different.

"I know." Gao Zhi lowered his head, not daring to look at him. "But Master, you are the master's only blood. Your survival is more important than anything else."

"..."

Shen Lanxi turned her head to look at the thunder and rain outside the window, her expression calm, "Give me the thing."

Gao Zhi was unwilling to give in, covering the black box with his hands, "No."

Shen Lanxi, "Wait an hour."
