Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Chapter 1938 Special Chapter. Wise Man 3

For Ran Zhi, there may not be much difference between what hope is and what despair is.

The children have grown up day by day. After overcoming the joys and sorrows again and again, Ran Zhi finally set foot on the middle-level land, a small independent villa with a front and back yard.

squeak

The moment the rusty door opened, Ran Zhi stood in the morning sunshine, with the laughter of his wife and a pair of children in his ears, and the cleaning work under his hands was going smoothly.

Ran Zhi looked at the bright leather boots and weighed his feet. The leather boots made a clicking sound. The injury on his leg was healed and there was no longer a dull pain. The unhappiness in the past seemed to be gone because of his successful career. The smoke cleared.

Every day, his wife talks about the children, while Ran Zhi just listens quietly and plays with the children. This may be the happiness that parents have enjoyed countless times in the past, and for Ran Zhi, it is the same now.

Ran Zhi was going to have dinner tonight and was invited to a banquet by some middle-level wealthy people. This was an opportunity to talk to many people about business matters.

Now Ran Zhi believes that everything will get better and better, because the city has really changed a lot now, not only at the bottom, but also at the middle level. The legal system is being improved. Before, he was working on his own affairs. There are also more lawyers like Pullman.

Ran Zhi felt that her heart was always warm. As long as she could live with the people she loved, this would be happiness.

The man who decorated the house had already come in and listened to his wife respectfully in front of his wife. Ran Zhi just watched from the sidelines. His wife had the final say in everything at home, and Ran Zhi rarely interfered.

It's not bad for Ran Zhi that such days continue. At this moment, Ran Zhi feels this way. As long as this cleaning company expands steadily, the family will not have to worry about money in the future.

But suddenly, Ran Zhi was stunned. He looked at the withered plants in the deserted courtyard in front of him, and all the unbearable things in the past popped up in his mind, like a revolving lantern, spinning rapidly in his head, Ran Zhi's eyes The chest was covered with bloodshot eyes.

This old house will be renovated tomorrow. In the afternoon, Ran Zhi took his family back to the apartment. His wife took the children and planned to go to the supermarket to buy things. Ran Zhi changed into a suit. I took the invitation to the banquet and planned to go to the banquet.

"I'll leave some food for you tonight. If you're hungry when you come back, you can make some for yourself. I'm a little tired today and want to go to bed early."

After Ran Zhi kissed his wife goodbye, he drove his private vehicle towards the banquet venue.

This was Ran Zhi's first time to attend such a large banquet. At the banquet, Ran Zhi saw many people who often appeared in the news. They were all people with status and status.

It's just that Ran Zhi is the only one who is out of tune here. He looks very nervous and is completely different from the people talking and laughing around him. No one takes the initiative to talk to him. Even the family member who invited him only talks casually with Ran Zhi. After Zhi said something, he was busy talking to others.

One small circle after another had been fully formed not long after the banquet started. It seemed that no one could get in and no one was planning to come out. The protagonists of the banquet were naturally the heads of several major families. Ran Zhi saw the one who stood out among the crowd. There is endless praise for the young and promising Eddie Hillman. His conversation and words always win some applause.

The senior management members were also there, but Ran Zhi stood alone in the corner. People passing by wouldn't even look at him. It felt terrible, and Ran Zhi could only drink in a dull manner.

Ran Zhi had already made a decision in his heart that he would not come to such a banquet next time. Ran Zhi did not feel any joyful atmosphere at the banquet, and only saw uncomfortable faces.

The people here determine the direction of the entire city and determine the lives of most people. This is what Ran Zhi sees. He is somewhat repulsed by being such a person. In this, Ran Zhi even sees some memories of the past. The faces among them, some gang members from the bottom, have now transformed into clean and wealthy businessmen.

They don't need to pay any price for the sins they committed in the past, and they can continue to move forward and enjoy a glorious life.

But suddenly a middle-aged woman caught Ran Zhi's attention. He stared blankly at the woman talking and laughing in the crowd, and accidentally dropped the wine glass in his hand.

boom

With broken wine glasses and spilled drinks, the scene was still filled with melodious and melodious music, maintaining the original atmosphere. No one noticed the daredevil in the corner, and even if they noticed, their eyes would not stay for even a second. , because in the eyes of most people, a man suddenly appeared at this banquet. Although he was well-dressed, his expression and behavior were that of a country bumpkin, and no one wanted to pay attention to him.

Ran Zhi's eyes stayed on that woman. Ran Zhi recognized this glamorous woman with enchanting makeup at a glance. She was the woman who always came to seduce his mother in the past, but Ran Zhi didn't expect that she would be like this. occasion to meet this woman.

A pair of bloodshot eyes stared at the woman, and Ran Zhi's expression became terrifying unknowingly.

"Sir, would you like a drink?"

A magnetic and clear voice came, and Ran Zhi quickly came back to his senses. At this time, what he saw was the handsome and gentle Eddie Hillman standing in front of him.

Ran Zhi reflexively looked for a wine glass, and his awkward behavior aroused some laughter. Eddie immediately called the waiter and gave Ran Zhi a glass of wine. Ran Zhi drank with Eddie in embarrassment, and then Eddie politely After leaving, the people around him also dispersed, and Ran Zhi returned to the corner again, unable to calm down.

Some things had been connected many years ago, the death of his mother, the death of his father, and the humiliation suffered by his wife. There was anger in Ran Zhi's eyes, but there was still a smile on his cheeks.

This anger has long been rooted deep in my heart, and I may think of it anytime and anywhere.

In the banquet place, there was not only the woman who was the neighbor in the past, but also the person in charge who invited the father and son to the night when his mother's accident happened, and the leader of a nearby gang. Ran Zhi knew that it was the group who did it, but However, after so many years, there is no way to verify it, and the mother's matter has become a murder case.

Ran Zhi once consulted the Pullman lawyer who helped him. He said that if he wanted to solve the case that year, the evidence was on the one hand, and if the murderers he suspected were willing to plead guilty, everything would be easy to solve. .

Ran Zhi raised his head slightly and saw that a boss he knew when he worked in the vehicle management office was also there. He was quietly recalling everything. I don't know why, but his memory ability has gotten better and better over the years. , I remember the details of the past more and more clearly.

Many unpleasant things in the past began to come out more and more. Ran Zhi felt dizzy and everything in front of him became increasingly blurry.

By the time Ran Zhi came back to his senses, the banquet had already ended. Only a few staff cleaning the banquet venue stood aside with some fear, because in their eyes, the man in front of them seemed a little crazy, and his expression was very scary. , there is an aura about him that does not allow people to advance.

"Sir, the show has ended."

Ran Zhi came back to his senses at this time, and then walked slowly with a smile.

"No one can get away with the sins of the past, no one."

Ran Zhi began to go to banquets frequently, always speaking in a low voice and always smiling. He easily recognized many people. Ran Zhi could clearly recognize every one of those people who had squeezed and exploited everything at the bottom in the past. Chu.

A smile and a complimentary attitude allowed Ran Zhi to enter the circle easily. Ran Zhi discovered that people's hearts are actually very easy to control, as long as the other party thinks it is worthwhile, profitable, and can be done. Yes, they will take action without hesitation.

"Really?"

"Yes, ma'am, I never brag."

Ran Zhi looked at the arrogant woman in front of him and the few men next to him. He had easily broken into their circle in just one month, but their attitude towards Ran Zhi was still the same. Otherwise, they don't even know Ran Zhi, because Ran Zhi seems to them to be just a person who wants to climb up. They don't need to know the origin of Ran Zhi, they only need to know whether there is any benefit.

Ran Zhi relied on his own talents to make these investors make money. They were very happy, but their attitude towards Ran Zhi still did not change.

A more enlightened era has come, but a big case occurred in the city. A man named Hydra was sentenced to prison, and Ran Zhi saw incredible things again.

A 20-year-old young administrator, on his first day at work, accidentally shot and killed a person when he was being beaten by a drunkard. In the end, amid huge complaints, people personally sent him to prison. 30 years in prison.

Although Ran Zhi saw some people in the School of God running for this poor man, in fact no one could resist all this.

And Ran Zhi’s plan has matured!

"Perfect plan!"

The first person to have problems was the person in charge who invited the father and son to dinner.

"What exactly do you mean Ran Zhi?"

Although the person in charge's face was covered in blood, the moment he saw Ran Zhi, he immediately became aggressive.

"Still remember me?"

Ran Zhi asked. The person in charge was still talking about Ran Zhi. What exactly did he want to do? Ran Zhi had already signed a delivery agreement with this man's company. If something went wrong with this man, the debt would fall on Ran Zhi. Ran Zhi's head, and the man's company will also belong to Ran Zhi.

However, in a supplementary agreement, men need to bear 10% of the debt.

The gang members who kidnapped the men in the house left. They happily took the money and left. Ran Zhi sat quietly in front of the person in charge.

"Do you still remember? As the person in charge of a certain construction site on the lower floor, you once invited a father and son to have dinner. As a result, the mother died unexpectedly the night the father and son returned home. The murderer is still at large."

The person in charge at this time looked at Ran Zhi in horror.

"Who are you."

"Don't worry, I will help introduce your wife and daughter and let them provide special services until the debt is paid off."

The person in charge cried, seeming to recall everything that happened back then. He admitted that he had indeed taken the woman's money, so he deliberately separated the father and son because the leader of the gang who had a good relationship with the woman fell in love with Ran Zhi. Mother.

"You don't need to say these things. I already knew it. I will help you. Don't worry. I will help you pay off all the debts you owe in the past. Use everything you have, everything you have."

The person in charge kept pleading, but Ran Zhi just smiled and turned around and closed the door.

For the first time, Ran Zhi felt relieved. This instant feeling of relaxation made Ran Zhi feel extremely happy.

neighbor woman

"What to do Ran Zhi?"

The woman's makeup in front of her was gone, and Ran Zhi looked at her seriously.

"Ma'am, I've warned you not to touch those things. I've told you many times."

Ran Zhi's eyes flashed with cunning. He easily made this woman see greater benefits, and the property in the woman's hands also urgently needed funds due to some poor management, otherwise she would be sued for fraud by the investors, everything Everything came naturally and naturally. This stupid and greedy woman took the bait easily.

"There is only one way now, take the money and hide, and when the incident is over, you can still live comfortably."

Ran Zhi provided a completely safe hiding place for the woman. Sure enough, the news of the woman taking the money and running away made headlines, and the administrators began to investigate.

It's just that they can't find out anything, because everyone who is closely related to the woman wants her to die. As long as she dies, there will naturally be no witnesses.

No one knew that the woman was hiding with the help of Ran Zhi. Ran Zhi looked at these anxious guys, especially the murderer who killed his mother and the former gang leader, because the woman knew everything about him.

Things like the vault will only be exposed when in danger. The leader used the old methods to ask people to help deal with some things. Soon Ran Zhi caught this thread and clearly collected all the crimes committed by the leader over the years. They found evidence and found people who had been bullied and exploited by this leader in the past, and they were happy to help.

During the arrest, the leader successfully escaped with the help of mutant bodyguards. When he was desperate, Ran Zhi provided a place for the leader.

"Only when a sin is discovered can it be called a sin!"

Ran Zhi quietly looked at the woman in front of him who was about to faint after being beaten. She kept saying that she did not betray the leader, but the leader was hysterical and extremely angry at this time because he had nothing left and the only place to go now was the barrier area.

Ran Zhi helped the leader arrange a trip to the barrier area. The leader left with only the remaining money, leaving only the dying woman.

"Still remember me?"

Looking at the woman desperately asking for help, Ran Zhi asked, and the woman began to curse.

"I still remember that you would always go to my house to persuade my mother to become like you, which would be better for the whole family. You would go often, but in the end my mother died. I still remember You were in the crowd at that time, smiling contemptuously, as if to say, it's all your fault for not listening to me, that's why you died."

The woman became excited for a moment. She seemed to realize something and immediately wanted to run away, but she found that she had no strength left.

"In your last days, remember it well. The price has been paid. I will take over everything you have. Don't worry, I will run it better than you."

Amid the woman's hysterical roar, Ran Zhi closed the door, and then the administrators found the woman. It was already confirmed that she died of excessive injuries after being beaten to death by the leader.

"Why is it getting slower and slower?"

"The investigation has been strict recently, and I managed to clear it with great difficulty. This time, this can of food costs 100 yuan."

Ran Zhi clutched the food in his hand, and for a moment the leader cursed him fiercely, but in the end the leader compromised. Amid hunger and cold, the money he brought out was emptied bit by bit by Ran Zhi.

"This time it's 500 a can."

"You XZXXXX"

After the weak scolding, the leader had no choice but to accept it. Ran Zhi knew how much money he had, but he did not intend to spend it all at once. Instead, he planned to slowly make the leader's hope disappear little by little in the hunger and cold. .

"Sorry, you can't buy it with only 100. After all, it costs a lot to unblock me."

"Give it to me first. I have a place in the city where I hide the money. If you give me more this time, I will tell you the address of the hidden money. Ran Zhi, I have taken good care of you in the past."

Ran Zhi nodded, but refused.

"After all, my dredging requires a lot of money. Without money, there will be no food."

The man almost collapsed. He wanted to snatch it, but was knocked down by a powerful hired mutant.

"Well, come to think of it, you took good care of me in the past."

Ran Zhi gave the man food, but this time he took out all the money he had.

"Once I confirm the location of the money, I will definitely send the food over."

"You give me some water and food first. I guarantee that the amount of money I have hidden is definitely enough."

This time Ran Zhi did not give the man food and water, but sold the food and water to other criminals, but the price was much lower than the man. The man who saw this was so angry that he cursed again.

"By the way, next time I confirm the money, I will bring you a big gift."

Ran Zhi left some food and water and left.

"Why are you here?"

The leader watched in horror as Ran Zhi brought food and water this time, as well as the man's divorced wife and daughter. This time Ran Zhi gave the man a lot of food and water.

"Why bring them out?"

The boss's wife and daughter weep, penniless and caught up in a murder.

"Help them, Ran Zhi, she."

"I'm sorry, do you remember well? In the past, you were the leader of a gang in an area under construction. At that time, you fell in love with a woman. You tried many methods to get her, but in the end you had to use force. In the end, you accidentally killed the resisting woman, unfortunately. That was my mother!"

The leader looked at Ran Zhi in shock, and only then did he notice that something was wrong.

"You bastard, bastard."

The man's roar was quickly drowned in the wind and sand.

"You and your family should live well here. No one can escape from the evil deeds of the past."

Ran Zhi never sent food to the man again. After a long time, Ran Zhi went to the barrier area once to deliver food to some criminals. At that time, Ran Zhi saw that the leader's wife had followed him, his daughter had disappeared, and that The man seemed to be seriously injured and in a daze.

"Let me help you. Do you want to be relieved?"

Ran Zhi asked, and the man whose breath was weak just smiled, but there were tears in his eyes, and he started to cry.

"Take it, you can survive with food, right?"

Ran Zhi gave the man some food, but Ran Zhi knew very well that the man would die, because when giving food, Ran Zhi deliberately let some healthy criminals see it.

"I always enjoy helping others!"

Ran Zhi returned to the city. At this time, he was already the head of several companies, and the attitude of people around him towards Ran Zhi was completely different.

Ran Zhi would go to the upper level from time to time because his daughter was engaged to someone from the Hillman family.

"I think we should be able to work together well, Mr. Ran Zhi!"

Ran Zhi hummed. He planned to be a "helpful" person and help those who were suffering. This was what Ran Zhi wanted to pursue, because there were too many suffering people in the world, and this kind of Sometimes it would be best for them if someone is willing to help.

Hatred, anger, unwillingness, humiliation, and sadness have moved away from Ran Zhi. They are very happy every day, helping the Hillman family with some small favors, and talking to their wives after returning home.

But Ran Zhi was still a little uncomfortable. He didn't want to stay in such an era anymore. Such an era made Ran Zhi feel sick.

"New era? Mr. Jean."

One morning, after coming out of the club, Ran Zhi was eating in a breakfast shop on the upper floor and accidentally saw Jean across the street. This was the second time Ran Zhi saw Jean, but this time Jean His attitude towards himself changed, and he seemed to feel something.

After Jean left, Ran Zhi laughed, because the new era that Jean had promised in the past had not come, and the current era has become the same as in the past, because power and money are eternal neighbors.

Seeing Jean leaving, his back looked a little lonely, Ran Zhi couldn't help but laugh.

"I hope that when we meet for the third time, a new era will come. Mr. Jean, what does the new era you see look like?"

Ran Zhi left with a smile. He knew very well that the new era he saw was not equivalent to the new era that Gene had said.
