Chapter 173 Cutting out the roots
"What I want to say is, grandpa, this is not fair. How many evil hands are eyeing me and want to search my home just because my father was a businessman. He once selflessly donated medicine to the army and had more conscience than some bad businessmen. In the end, he donated the entire factory to the country, which almost exhausted my family's wealth. My parents died unfortunately, and the people they helped wanted to kill me. I am lucky to be able to save my life now. Is it wrong to express anger?" At this point, Chen Mu's face was full of indignation, because he knew very well that it was those selfish people who caused countless pains to his homeland.
Shi Lao was silent. He knew that what Chen Mu said was true. He held Chen Mu's hand tightly and said, "Promise me that you won't go abroad. There will be hope for the Flower Growing Family to recover."
Chen Mu sighed and promised, "Okay, I understand. After all, as a gardener, I always feel uncomfortable treating foreigners. But now please follow my plan, and more importantly, live well and never think of committing suicide."
Shi Lao agreed to his conditions: "I will."
Turning around, Chen Mu asked Xiao Zhang: "Brother Xiao Zhang, what is your plan?"
Xiao Zhang replied: "I am the only one at home, I will stay here to accompany the leader."
"Very good." Chen Mu introduced the details of the house to them and took out a spare key for Xiao Zhang to keep. There are enough food such as grains, vegetables, bacon and sausages here, enough to supply for several months, and the kitchen and bathroom are very convenient.
Late at night, it was already three o'clock in the morning when the two returned to Yard 95.
He Yushui was already asleep, Chen Mu gently approached the bed and lay down carefully. He Yushui woke up soon after.
"Brother Chen Mu, why did you come back so late?" Although He Yushui had known that Chen Mu had gone out late at night because he was awakened by the shock.
"I'm going out to take care of some important things. You just need to sleep a little longer." Chen Mu rubbed He Yu's head lovingly and smiled.
Hearing this, He Yushui didn't ask any more questions, but just snuggled in Chen Mu's arms and continued to sleep.
Because the two were about to get married, there was no need to hide much, but they did not deliberately tell other people in the hospital about their cohabitation.
The next morning, after Chen Mu finished his breakfast, he prepared a rich breakfast and came to Courtyard 20. Brother Zhang was originally uneasy, but he felt relieved after seeing Chen Mu.
"Uncle, Brother Zhang, come and have dinner." Chen Mu came to the door with hot meat buns, fried dough sticks, fresh milk and nutritious lean meat porridge in his hands.
The old man stayed up all night last night and didn't look well. However, Chen Mu knew that his injuries were no longer serious and there was no need to worry too much. Even if he was facing a disease like HIV, he could recover with his medical skills.
"Today's breakfast is quite exquisite." Mr. Shi was a little surprised.
"It's just an ordinary meal, I made all of it myself. Try this milk, it's freshly squeezed colostrum, it's great for nourishing the body. You need to replenish your nutrition." Chen Mu explained.
Shi Lao tasted the food with satisfaction, and his thoughts drifted to the past: "This meat bun tastes really authentic. The last time I ate something so delicious was when I left home to join the army as a child, and my mother made it for me."
"If you like, you can always do more in the future." Chen Mu said with a smile.
Hearing this, Mr. Shi quickly said, "No need. Nowadays, it's hard to get enough to eat. I'm satisfied if I can have such delicious food once a month."
"Hehe, if you like this, I will let you satisfy your appetite every day. No matter how much money you have, it won't be a waste for me, right?" Chen Mu said half-jokingly.
Hearing this, Mr. Shi smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I'm showing off my wealth?"
"To be honest, although I am very capable, many wealthy people and officials come to me for help. They all ask me for treatment and they can't help but give me gifts. I once treated an entrepreneur and he gave me ten yellow croakers." Chen Mu said lightly.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Shi and the Zhang brothers widened their eyes in shock.
"This is not surprising. People in high positions are more afraid of losing their lives. When people have wealth and power, they desire to survive for a long time. Although they have power and wealth, they still have to experience birth, old age, sickness and death. And I can control their life and death in my hands, so how can I be willing to not deal with it?" Chen Mu explained.
After hearing this, Mr. Shi sighed: "Yes, this is human nature."
The Supervisory Department was in a state of panic at this moment. They learned that Wang Shun and his two subordinates were missing, and even Old Shi was missing, which made the top management quite worried.
Wang Shun’s boss was worried. Could it be that the secret had been revealed?
Once the truth is revealed, his life will be in danger. Even if the man was framed and imprisoned, his prestige in the army is still unmatched. He knows that if the many forces under Wang Shun who have not been arrested know about this, he will really have nowhere to hide.
"Search quickly and make sure to find ** and investigate all people involved in this matter." The superior ordered.
"Yes, Chief." The subordinate took the order and left to investigate the place.
This matter is too tricky. If it gets to the ears of someone in Taiye Lake who knows the situation, it means that their assassination plan will be leaked and their lives will be in danger.
In the courtyard of No. 20 Nanluoguxiang, Beijing, Chen Mu recreated the appearance of Mr. Shi with his superb skills. Naturally, he let Mr. Shi take a short rest before continuing.
Today, Lao Shi looks like an ordinary old man in his sixties, but his unique temperament is still difficult to conceal. But this is enough, and no one will recognize his true identity.
After waking up, Lao Shi looked at himself in the mirror and was surprised.
"This...what's going on? Is this me?" Lao Shi asked.
"Commander, your appearance has changed so much that I can't recognize you now." Xiao Zhang was also very surprised.
Chen Mu smiled and replied: "I used traditional Chinese medicine to change your appearance. It will not affect your daily life. When you want to remove the disguise, just tell me and I will be able to return to my original appearance immediately."
"So magical! Brother Chen, your medical skills are truly amazing!" Xiao Zhang exclaimed in amazement.
Chen Mudao: "Brother Zhang, do you want me to give you a new identity? You are not young anymore, you should have a companion. How about adjusting your appearance a little bit?" he joked.
"No thanks," Xiao Zhang declined with a wry smile, "I still have to go to work in the transport team. If I change my appearance, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for my work."
After hearing this reason, Chen Mu just smiled and said nothing more. He looked at Lao Shi and asked, "Grandpa, what is the new identity called? I will arrange everything. I will keep the new ID card confidential, and the person applying for it will not be informed."
"This...is it really possible?" Lao Shi asked doubtfully.
"Don't worry," Chen Mu confirmed again, "I will take care of it."
“Then we can still call him Shichuan, as in ‘dripping water wears away stone’, instead of the surname Peng,” said the old man.
"Okay, wait a moment. I'll take a photo and help you get a new ID card and household registration booklet right away. It will be a lot more convenient when you go out fishing. Brother Zhang will also move here, so you can consider this place your new home." Chen Mu arranged.
Xiao Zhang nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Chen Mu took the note and camera written by Lao Shi and left his work. After developing a one-inch photo, Chen Mu did not hesitate and used his superb skills to control the staff of the household registration office of the street office and quickly processed the documents and household registration booklet.
According to the input information, the new household registration booklet and ID card were quickly produced. The current ID card is wrapped in a transparent plastic film, which is different from the future card type. The household registration booklet is manually written, stamped with the official seal and filed, completing the processing process. Everything seems normal.
When Lao Shi saw the new household registration booklet and ID card, he was shocked, but then he smiled bitterly: from now on he would have to live a life in hiding.
"Chief, don't think too much, everything will be over. With us here, you will definitely get the protection you deserve." Xiao Zhang comforted.
Lao Shi nodded in agreement and felt much more relaxed.
"Boy Chen, how about we have a few drinks at lunch?" Lao Shi suggested.
"Okay." Chen Mu brought out a jar of monkey wine brewed from Lingquan from the room. "These are all brewed by me. I have ten jars in stock for you to enjoy. Don't drink too much."
When Lao Shi heard about the monkey wine, his eyes lit up. He had not yet finished the jar that Chen Mu had sent him before, but now he finally enjoyed it as he wished. This monkey wine has a unique taste, and every time he drinks a little, he feels his body getting stronger.
The guests and hosts enjoyed the drinking party very much. Lao Shi fell into a deep sleep. Chen Mu asked Xiao Zhang to take good care of him and leave enough money for Lao Shi to enjoy the good things in his daily life. Chen Mu arranged everything and left. Although the new supervisory department handled the loss of contact with the three people in a low-key manner, it still launched an investigation in secret. At this time, Chen Mu had already entered the secret realm of the immortal doctor and chatted and laughed with Xiao Yao, Xiao Qiao and others.
Chen Mu opened the door of the black room and walked in.
When Wang Shun noticed the movement, he shouted quickly: "Who is it? Let me out quickly, let me out now!" He had spent the whole night in the dark hut, and the ropes on his body were tightly tied. The deep darkness put too much psychological pressure on him.
The lights in the room turned on instantly, and the light stung Wang Shun's eyes.
After a while, he regained consciousness and saw a strange young man. He immediately became furious and said, "Who are you? Let me out quickly, otherwise my whole family and I will die."
"Oh, you dare to threaten me." Chen Mu smiled coldly, "Don't you know the current situation?"
"You... who are you?" Wang Shun felt panicked.
"Tell me, who is the mastermind behind the scenes who ordered you to ** Mr. Shi?" Chen Mu asked coldly.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Wang Shun tried to avoid answering with flickering eyes.
"You still don't admit your mistakes at this point. You will really resist to the end." Chen Mu snorted coldly, "Your eldest son Wang Jianguo now works in the Ministry of Transportation, and your youngest son Wang Jianjun is in the business world. They both rely on their father's power to violate women at work. Your grandson Wang Xiaobing even bullied his classmates in kindergarten. Now he is in Yuying Kindergarten. If you don't cooperate, I will teach them a lesson one by one."
Chen Mu had conducted an in-depth investigation on this matter in advance, so it was not difficult for him to collect information. He just needed to get the relevant information of Wang Shun.
"You...what are you going to do? If you dare to touch my son and grandson, I will never forgive you." Faced with the intimidation, Wang Shun panicked.
"Don't worry, if I kill you, I will cut off the root of the problem and won't give you a chance to retaliate. Since you won't tell me, let the whole family accompany you to see **." Chen Mu said mercilessly.
"No... don't do this. I'll tell you, it was Commander Xie who gave the order." Wang Shun begged for mercy quickly.
Fear took hold of Wang Shun's heart.
