Chapter 153 At your own risk
The group soon arrived near a suburban villa. It was quiet and deserted. Through consciousness detection, he confirmed that there were at least thirty people in the villa, and some were taking out boxes that looked quite heavy. There must be something hidden inside.
Many agents are equipped with defensive equipment ** and are on high alert.
"Captain, the target location has been determined. There are more than ten guns and about twenty to thirty people inside. According to investigation, their target this time is a batch of national treasures, which they intend to smuggle to Tianjin. But our people have already targeted the contact personnel." The report came.
Liu Jianjun nodded in confirmation: "Team One will ambush in the south, Team Two will ambush in the north. Team Three and I will attack and quickly pacify the situation."
“Yes, Captain!”
So more than a dozen players quickly divided into three groups, and Chen Mu unfortunately became a follower. He smiled helplessly - his mission seemed to be just to watch, but in fact he wanted to provide assistance silently.
Chen Mu secretly summoned a dozen flying knives, flew into the yard silently, and found a corner to hide. He was not in a hurry to take action, but would only stay in the dark and provide assistance when the red team members were in danger.
Liu Jianjun commanded calmly, quietly approached the perimeter of the yard, observed the situation, threw a grenade, and then broke through the door a second later. The enemy was caught off guard, smoke spread, and the situation suddenly became chaotic. At this time, Liu Jianjun and his men decisively opened fire and fired accurately.
The enemy was caught off guard and a large number of them were quickly knocked down. The armed agents hurriedly responded to the attack, but these experienced agents did not let them take advantage of the situation. They cooperated tacitly and launched a fierce offensive.
One of the hidden agents was about to shoot Liu Jianjun from behind, but Liu Jianjun was completely unaware. However, the next second, the gun did not fire, but the agent's wrist suddenly hurt and the gun fell to the side.
"Don't move, you won't get hurt if you surrender!" Liu Jianjun shouted.
Many opponents were terrified, and they all raised their hands and lay on the ground, not daring to move. The few who escaped were also shot dead by the ambushers; those who wanted to kill had their fingers cut in an instant, and their weapons fell, followed by a fatal blow.
In total, more than a dozen enemies were killed and twenty captured. All the captured people were tied up.
All the red warriors were unharmed. Although Chen Mu had helped them secretly, their teamwork showed extremely strong fighting power, which even surprised Chen Mu.
After making sure his colleagues were safe, Liu Jianjun breathed a sigh of relief. This was an unprecedented victory. In the past, even if the results were remarkable, there would always be brothers injured. After all, the number of enemies was three times theirs.
Then, Chen Mu followed the team into the courtyard. Originally, he was supposed to provide medical assistance, but now he had to treat the enemy spies and bring them back for interrogation.
Liu Jianjun opened dozens of boxes and exclaimed in amazement: "These are national treasures. Lao Zhang, contact the superiors immediately and notify the large troops to come and receive them."
Chen Mu also took a look, all of them were bronze wares and national treasure-level porcelain, as well as two large boxes of gold, probably at least half a ton. He noticed that the red-clothed team members did not have the slightest greed for these treasures and gold.
At this point, he realized that he was too superficial and that these companions were all respectable.
A member of the red team smiled and said, "I thought there would be danger this time, so I asked Brother Chen to provide medical assistance, but it seems that they are powerless to fight back."
"I'm glad that you are all safe, but don't take it lightly." Chen Mu said with a smile.
"Brother Chen is absolutely right. Niu Er, you need to change your mentality. As a soldier, you must always maintain the highest level of vigilance." Liu Jianjun warned.
"Understood, Captain."
They may have spent a day together, talking and laughing, but in the blink of an eye, a brother may die. Similar situations are not uncommon.
Not long after, a large number of reinforcements arrived and took away the enemy spies and the national treasure gold. Chen Mu then left with Liu Jianjun and others.
At about 6pm, the group returned to the courtyard, where the neighbors had gathered for a meeting. Yi Zhonghai, Liu Shangzhong and Yan Bugui were in the center. As soon as Chen Mu arrived in the middle courtyard, everyone's eyes focused on him.
Yi Zhonghai was dissatisfied, and he wanted to use this opportunity to consolidate his control over the courtyard and further alienate Sha Zhu and Xu Damao. Now that Chen Mu has returned, it seems that nothing good will happen.
"Why is it another general meeting? What happened?" Chen Mu asked curiously.
"Brother Chen just happened to arrive. That guy named Shazhu stole my chickens." Xu Damao said immediately when he saw Chen Mu returning.
"You are lying. As a chef, why would I steal your chicken?" Sha Zhu retorted angrily.
"Then can you explain where your chickens come from?" Xu Damao pressed on.
"What does this have to do with you?" Sha Zhu said angrily. He actually picked up the chicken from the steel factory.
Chen Mu walked to the dining table and looked at Xu Damao, "Da Mao, I remember you brought home two female puppies."
"That's right. I was going to give you one that time, but you didn't want it. Now there's one less, and Sha Zhu cooked the chicken and ate it." Xu Damao continued to explain: "I found that his family was stewing chicken soup."
"Da Mao, you have wronged Sha Zhu this time. He cooked the rooster, even the head was still there. Your chicken must have been stolen by someone else." Chen Mu scooped up the chicken head with a spoon and revealed **.
After everyone saw that it was indeed a rooster head, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
When Xu Damao saw it, he had to believe it: "Xu Damao, you see, that's a rooster. It's a tonic I bought for me, my wife and children." Sha Zhu raised his chin proudly.
"Then where did the chickens I raised go?" Xu Damao asked.
Chen Mu looked around at the people in the courtyard, saw Qin Huairu's expression flickering, and found that Bang Gengren was not around, so he knew that this scene was a reappearance of the story of the chicken being stolen in the original book. So he smiled and said, "Just call the police. It's easy for the police to catch a thief."
"Don't call the police!" Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu objected almost in unison.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu. Yi Zhonghai said hurriedly, "This is a matter within the courtyard. Conflicts between family members should be resolved privately. Is it necessary to alert the police just because a chicken was lost?"
Chen Mu snorted coldly, looked at Xu Damao and said, "Da Mao, there's no need to speculate. The person who stole the chicken must be related to Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so nervous. It's probably Bang Geng who did it."
"Chen Mu, what nonsense are you talking about? What evidence do you have to prove that my son did it?" Qin Huairu asked angrily.
"You know in your heart that I haven't had a good meal for a long time, and I don't want to bother with your business." After Chen Mu finished speaking, he walked quickly towards the inner courtyard. He Yushui followed closely and said with a smile: "Brother Chen Mu, I have prepared dinner. Why are you back so late?"
"The hospital just asked me to go see a doctor. You haven't eaten yet, right?" Chen Mu said.
"I just want to wait for you to eat together." He Yushui replied.
Touching He Yushui's face, Chen Mu smiled and said, "If I come back late, please eat in advance and don't wait for me, so that the food won't get cold."
After listening to Chen Mu's analysis, everyone roughly understood that it was Banggeng who stole the chicken, but Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai were still unwilling to admit it, because Banggeng was Yi Zhonghai's son in name after all. Chen Mu simply took out five yuan from his pocket and said, "It's such a small matter, and we can't find any results after searching for it. Maybe you neglected to lock the cage and it slipped out. I'm giving you five yuan as compensation for the chicken you lost."
Xu Damao was about to argue, but Lou Xiao'e gently grabbed his collar and told him not to bother, as it was just a small matter. He snorted but remained silent, thinking that the five dollars was enough to buy two chickens anyway, so he didn't lose out.
At night, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu were at home. Recently, Yi Zhonghai often secretly followed Qin Huairu. Once he found her buying contraceptive pills, which made Yi Zhonghai very dissatisfied. He immediately made a serious request to Qin Huairu that she could not take any contraceptive measures. If she violated this order, she would never dare to do anything.
Qin Huairu knew that this stubborn old man would not be satisfied until she gave birth to a child for him. She had planned to continue to delay him, but Yi Zhonghai was too clever for her to get away with it. However, she really did not want to give birth to more children for Yi Zhonghai. Once she had a child, Yi Zhonghai was definitely not a kind person, and Banggeng and Xiaodanghuai would be treated badly.
However, facing the reality, she could only take one step at a time. At this moment, Yi Zhonghai became particularly diligent for some reason. After finishing the work, he said to Qin Huairu: "You should care more about Banggeng's future. He has been stealing since he was a child. What will he achieve when he grows up?"
Qin Huairu immediately retorted: "Tsk, no wonder you want a child, it turns out you dislike Banggeng. What's wrong with Banggeng? It's because he doesn't eat well, otherwise why would he want to steal chickens from Xu Damao's house. Now no one in the courtyard is willing to help, and you only give us ten yuan a month for food expenses. I'm really fed up."
Yi Zhonghai could earn 80 yuan a month as a first-class fitter, but he refused to let Qin Huairu manage the finances and insisted on only giving each person 10 yuan. This made Qin Huairu very dissatisfied, as the money was not enough for her.
Yi Zhonghai said, "I've been mean to you, too, you know." Then he added, "Besides, how could I dislike Bang Geng? If I didn't trust him, I would never help him today. Do you think I'm really rich? I was defrauded of several thousand last time about the ginseng, and Jia Dongxu took advantage of the situation and took more than two thousand. You know where that money went - most of it was taken by Wang Guihua, and I just want to keep some for our future."
"You deposited Jia Dongxu's money with your mother-in-law. Do you think I wouldn't know about it? How could I steal it?" Qin Huairu cursed the old man "Li De" in her heart. He was even more stingy than Jia Dongxu. What did she do wrong to deserve this guy's pestering?
"As long as you can give birth to a child for me, Banggeng and I will treat you well. Don't take medicine anymore, otherwise you will bear the consequences." Yi Zhonghai emphasized the warning.
Now, Qin Huairu only prays to God not to help Yi Zhonghai cure his infertility problem, so that she will have an excuse to blame everything on Chen Mu and say that he is cheating her out of money.
Thinking of Chen Mu, her mind immediately came to the situation of her cousin Qin Yanru. It is said that many people came to propose marriage, but Qin Yanru was dismissive. The last time she went back to her husband's house to inquire about the news, she and Qin Jingru became more outstanding.
