Career Challenge: What does it mean when you wear a hood? - Chapter 159

c159 A dead Chen Yong!

heard this movement.

Zhao Ming frowned slightly and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw a small door next to the bookshelf in the corner of the office.

at this time.

Two figures were walking out of the small door.

The leader was a middle-aged man in his early forties. He wore a straight suit, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and held a lit cigar in his hand.

He walked out slowly, and the aura around him gave people a sense of oppression unique to those in power.

At this time, he looked at Zhao Ming with a smile.

obviously.

He is Mr. Zhao in Zhang Tao’s mouth.

That is, the man behind Zheng Jianghe who was killed by Chen Yong.

Behind him was a tall and muscular man, estimated to be two meters tall.

Wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, his thick forearms with bulging veins were exposed to the air.

He followed Mr. Zhao, who looked like a giant in comparison.

And this muscular man is clearly Mr. Zhao’s bodyguard.

Although the bodyguard was wearing sunglasses, the eyes under the sunglasses were obviously staring at Zhao Ming at this time.

After Mr. Zhao appeared with his bodyguards.

The eight soldiers standing on both sides of Zhao Ming quickly stood up straight and saluted Mr. Zhao, appearing extremely respectful.

Mr. Zhao ignored the soldiers’ salutes as if he hadn’t seen them at all.

His eyes were always on Zhao Ming, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger.

He stopped in front of Zhao Ming.

He handed the cigar in his hand to the giant bodyguard behind him.

After taking the cigar, the bodyguard directly pinched the lit end with two fingers, and then rubbed it hard.

Under Zhao Ming’s gaze, he put out the cigar with his hand.

And after he finished all this, he seemed to feel Zhao Ming’s gaze.

At that moment, he also raised his head and looked towards Zhao Ming.

Eyes facing each other.

Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows slightly.

The bodyguard remained expressionless.

“This guy…could he be a masochist?”

Zhao Ming couldn’t help but murmur to himself.

certainly.

His face remained expressionless, but he withdrew his gaze calmly and looked at Mr. Zhao again.

“It really surprises me that you can kill Zheng Jianghe!”

“After all, in the eyes of everyone, you are extremely loyal to Zheng Jianghe.”

“Even Zheng Jianghe thinks so himself. Otherwise, if he had gone to prison to avoid the limelight, he would not have taken you with him as a bodyguard.”

“Presumably he didn’t think that you would betray him until the moment he died, right?”

Mr. Zhao still looked at Zhao Ming with a smile and spoke in an easy-going tone.

The face of Mr. Zhao in front of him was full of joy, and his brows were filled with joy.

It is clear.

As one of the biggest beneficiaries of Zheng Jianghe’s death, he was in a really good mood these days.

“For profit, nothing is impossible.”

“Since what you gave me can impress me, then I can kill Zheng Jianghe for you.”

Zhao Ming had a cold expression and spoke in a calm tone.

Naturally, he didn’t know what Mr. Zhao in front of him had given Chen Yong to convince Chen Yong to kill Zheng Jianghe.

Therefore, this matter is only vaguely mentioned.

Although according to Zhao Ming’s guess, Mr. Zhao in front of him most likely knew that he was not the real Chen Yong.

But this is always just my guess.

therefore.

When facing Mr. Zhao in front of him, Zhao Ming still maintained Chen Yong’s disguise as much as possible.

“Ha ha……”

“I like to hear what you say.”

“Every bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit.”

“How can there be absolute loyalty in this world? Everyone is just doing it for profit.”

After listening to Zhao Ming’s words, Mr. Zhao smiled generously.

He reached out and patted Zhao Ming on the shoulder, and then spoke in an extremely serious tone.

Obviously, he also strongly agrees with Zhao Ming’s words.

“I wonder what business Mr. Zhao came to see me for today?”

Zhao Ming raised his eyebrows and asked seemingly casually.

While talking.

Instead, he glanced at the eight fully armed soldiers standing on both sides of him.

This meaning is very obvious.

It seemed that he was quite unhappy with Mr. Zhao being so wary of him.

After Mr. Zhao saw Zhao Ming’s gaze, he still smiled, as if he didn’t understand what Zhao Ming meant, and did not let these soldiers leave.

At the same time, the burly and muscular bodyguard was standing behind Mr. Zhao.

He made no secret of Zhao Ming’s caution.

“There’s no rush to talk about it, just sit down first!”

Mr. Zhao spoke kindly and asked Zhao Ming to sit down at the huge desk in front of him.

The soldiers also followed a few steps forward and stood on both sides of Zhao Ming in prepared formation.

He always maintained a formation that could surround Zhao Ming at any time.

See this situation.

Zhao Ming frowned, and there was a hint of displeasure on his face, but in the end he didn’t say anything.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but become vigilant in his heart.

Mr. Zhao in front of him did not hide his wariness against him at all.

He looked like he would take action at any time.

Then my situation is really not optimistic.

Given the situation in this office, there was no way he could escape if he really took action.

Let’s not talk about the eight soldiers who were waiting with guns.

Let’s just say that the burly man following Mr. Zhao is definitely a difficult character.

after all.

Being able to follow Mr. Zhao closely is definitely not just about his appearance.

And as long as he has some skills and cooperates with his terrain, it will naturally be difficult to deal with.

Although Zhao Ming is still confident that he can solve him.

But this will definitely take a lot of time.

With these eight soldiers present, Zhao Ming naturally has no chance of winning.

After Zhao Ming sat down, Mr. Zhao also sat down opposite him.

The tall and burly bodyguard stood beside him quietly, his face expressionless, like a stone statue.

I saw Mr. Zhao opening a drawer on his desk.

Then he took out a cigar box from inside, took out a cigar from it, cut off the cap and toasted it with a lighter.

After a while.

With a smile on his face, he handed the lit cigar to Zhao Ming.

Although Zhao Ming still had an unhappy look on his face, he still took the cigar.

Seeing this, Mr. Zhao picked up a cigar again, cut off the cap, and started roasting it.

At the same time, he spoke again.

“It’s been exposed that you were responsible for Zheng Jianghe’s death.”

“You must have noticed this when you came back.”

“As for how this matter was exposed, I don’t know, but I have already been investigated.”

When he spoke, his eyes were always staring at the cigar in his hand, and he did not look up at Zhao Ming.

The tone is calm and serious.

That look.

It really seemed like the exposure of this matter had nothing to do with him.

Zhao Ming took a puff from his cigar, raised his eyebrows and exhaled the smoke, but did not answer.

Just quietly watching Mr. Zhao’s performance opposite.

At this time, he didn’t know what Zhao Ming was planning, whether he wanted to attack him right here, or whether he had other plans.

But looking at his appearance, the latter should be more likely.

This actually made Zhao Ming feel slightly relieved.

after all.

In this way, at least he is safe for the time being.

It also gives him time to prepare to escape from this whirlpool.

If not.

It is really unfair to die here today.

certainly.

If Mr. Zhao was planning to take action against Zhao Ming today, he would naturally not sit still and wait for death.

Given the distance between Zhao Ming and Mr. Zhao across from him, even though the tall and strong man was standing nearby, he was still somewhat sure that he would be able to kidnap him as soon as possible.

But in this way, even if Mr. Zhao can be used as a hostage, his own safety can be temporarily guaranteed.

But it was impossible for Zhao Ming to successfully escape safely.

As for Zhao Ming not responding to him, Mr. Zhao didn’t care.

He was just minding his own business.

After toasting the cigar, he put down the lighter, picked up the cigar, took a puff, and exhaled the smoke.

Then he closed his eyes with an expression of enjoyment.

After a while, he opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Ming opposite him.

“This cigar tastes good. It was given to me by Zheng Jianghe!”

“I have always kept it and never wanted to smoke it.”

“I brought it out specially today to try it with you.”

Mr. Zhao looked at Zhao Ming and spoke happily.

Hear the words.

Zhao Ming nodded, but didn’t say much.

“Zheng Jianghe still has some status in the group, and it is undeniable.”

“Even though this guy is dead, many people in the group are already clamoring for an explanation.”

“Do you think there is something wrong with these people’s brains? They are all dead. Do you think I have to go to the King of Hell to get him back?”

“Although I am extremely unhappy, I cannot get rid of all these people.”

“I’m also having a headache about this!”

Mr. Zhao spoke again, this time with a little excitement.

It was as if he was complaining to Zhao Ming.

Hearing this, Zhao Ming did not remain silent.

Instead, he raised his eyebrows and spoke.

“It’s not impossible to get rid of them all.”

“Since they miss Zheng Jianghe so much, it is indeed a good idea to send them down to see Zheng Jianghe.”

Zhao Ming sat upright, stared at the cigar in his hand, and spoke in a calm tone.

His brows were slightly furrowed, and his expression was quite serious when he spoke.

Obviously not joking.

When he heard what he said, Mr. Zhao couldn’t help but be slightly startled.

It was as if he didn’t expect that Zhao Ming, who was opposite him, would say such words.

It took a full two or three seconds before he smiled.

“Ha ha……”

“I like your humor.”

“To be honest, it’s not like I haven’t thought about killing all these people.”

“But there are only so many people available in the group. If they all die, the group will not be able to survive.”

“After all, you and I still have to rely on this group to support us.”

Mr. Zhao laughed, then frowned and spoke with some sincerity.

And at this time.

The way he looked at Zhao Ming had also changed a lot, and he actually had a hint of fear.

Mainly because Zhao Ming looked too serious when he spoke just now.

That look.

Mr. Zhao had no doubt that he would really do that.

“Then this matter will be a bit difficult to handle.”

“After all, they already know that I killed Zheng Jianghe.”

“Now they all want an explanation. It’s impossible to just push me out and let them do what they want, right?”

“I believe that even if I really wanted to be pushed out, Mr. Zhao would not agree to it.”

Zhao Ming frowned and looked at Mr. Zhao across from him with a troubled expression on his face.

It does seem like he is thinking about Mr. Zhao.

Hear this.

Mr. Zhao couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.

But he soon returned to his smiling expression.

“That’s natural.”

“After all, you helped me solve such a big mess, how could I push you out?”

“They want an explanation, so let’s give them an explanation.”

Zhao Ming nodded, still speaking in a kind tone.

After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands.

Then a soldier standing beside Zhao Ming trotted out of the office door.

Mr. Zhao was not in a hurry when he saw this and continued to taste the cigar in his hand.

Zhao Ming didn’t speak, he sat quietly on the chair and waited.

Almost five minutes or so.

The office door was pushed open.

The soldier who just left led several people into the office.

Several people came in carrying a stretcher. The stretcher was covered with a piece of white cloth. Judging from the outline under the white cloth, there should be a person lying down.

Zhang Tao, who came with Zhao Ming, was next to the stretcher.

“Mr. Zhao!”

As soon as Zhang Tao entered the office, he quickly took a few steps towards the desk.

With a smile on his face, he greeted Mr. Zhao very attentively.

It looked like a pug.

Mr. Zhao glanced at Zhang Tao and nodded silently, with no intention of responding.

Zhang Tao didn’t care at all, he just stood aside quietly and waited.

“What does it mean?”

Zhao Ming withdrew his gaze from the stretcher.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Mr. Zhao asking curiously.

at this time.

He also vaguely guessed that there was a high probability of a corpse on the stretcher.

Whose it is is unknown.

After hearing Zhao Ming’s question, Mr. Zhao did not respond.

Instead, he stood up and walked slowly towards the stretcher.

After standing next to the stretcher, he held the cigar in one hand and lifted off the white cloth on it with the other hand.

“This is the explanation I am going to give to everyone in the group!”

“A dead Chen Yong!”

Mr. Zhao did not lower his head to look at the body on the stretcher. Instead, he looked at Zhao Ming from a distance with a smile.

He spoke in a very calm tone.

And when the white cloth was opened, he saw the body on the stretcher.

Even though Rao was mentally prepared, Zhao Ming still had a look of surprise on his face.

I saw the body on the stretcher wearing the uniform of a prison guard, with half of his face beaten, obviously from a gunshot wound.

Zhao Ming was naturally very familiar with this corpse.

It was obviously Chen Yong who was kidnapped and then killed by Zhao Ming in the prison office!

Zhao Ming was really shocked that Chen Yong’s body would appear here.

But this also verified Zhao Ming’s conjecture.

The deputy warden and Mr. Zhao in front of him were obviously the same group of people.

And Mr. Zhao also knew everything.

He had indeed fallen into a trap.

only……

Mr. Zhao in front of him seemed to have no intention of doing anything to him.

And he regarded Chen Yong as an abandoned son, but he didn’t want to get rid of the fake Chen Yong.

So what is his plan?
