Shao Xiaodong couldn't help but nod and say, "What a magnificent Western Chu group! They exude an overwhelming aura of dominance!"
Ma Huaqiang grinned and said, "What? What group? What is Xichu?"
Ma Xiaohe then chuckled and said, "West vinegar is the vinegar sold by Wang Xiaoyan's family on the west side of our village..." Everyone slapped their foreheads in surprise.
Cao Yunfei sighed and said, "Brother Chu is comparing us to the Chu King of yesteryear, who was invincible and domineering."
Shao Xiaodong nodded: "Alright, Cao Yunfei, you've got some knowledge!"
Cao Yunfei shook his head: "There's an old man in prison who always tells us stories. He's been in prison for half his life. He was wrongfully imprisoned and is about to be released. He'll be exonerated soon. Thirty years... He used to be a teacher, so he often tells us stories."
"Cao Yunfei, weren't you in a juvenile detention center before?" Duan Hongxing asked.
"Ah! Another stabbing incident at the juvenile detention center, transfer me straight to prison..."
Everyone fell silent.
The name was decided, and the Western Chu group also needed a symbol. They couldn't think of anything at the last minute, so they decided to cover their faces with black cloth when they were killing people, mainly because they were afraid of being recognized.
Subsequently, Shao Xiaodong received several internal calls saying that Ma Houzi's parents were being treated at Hancheng Hospital, and that his younger brother was out of danger, but his life would be ruined, and so on.
The reason for not reporting the monkey incident was to avoid uncovering the matter of the guns, since Chen Chu had already taken them. If the matter were to be discovered, it would be a serious matter.
Cao Yunfei sneered, "Damn it, we might as well kill all his mothers and then burn his two-story house down..."
"Damn, you're really ruthless!" Hei Zi slapped his forehead.
Shao Xiaodong asked again, "Brother Chu, we have a designation now, what should we do next? Should we split up for a while, break into smaller groups, and lay low..." Everyone looked at Chen Chu.
Now that he's the boss, no matter what, his men have to listen to him.
Chen Chu smiled and then said, "Go to sleep first, don't think about anything else!"
After craning their necks and waiting for a long time, all they heard was this sentence, and they couldn't help but grimac.
This room is about 100 square meters, enough for one person. But Shao Xiaodong made his men live in other places. Like a cunning rabbit with multiple burrows, Shao Xiaodong owns six or seven houses and rents out seven or eight houses, mostly for the prostitutes.
Chen Chu had all gone to sleep when he called Shao Xiaodong aside and said, "Feng Meng and the others have all gone back!"
Shao Xiaodong nodded and said, "They didn't want to leave either, but I said it was the boss who said so, and Feng Meng and the others couldn't do anything about it. They also said they would go back and contact the rest of Ji Yang's men."
Shao Xiaodong paused for a moment, then said, "Brother Chu, I have something I shouldn't have said..."
"you say..."
Shao Xiaodong paused for a few seconds and then asked, "Brother Chu, you're the boss now. If Ji Yang recovers someday, what will you do...?"
"What about me?"
"Do you still want to be the boss? Brother Chu, I'll follow you anyway..." Chen Chu had never thought of Shao Xiaodong's words.
He chuckled and said, "Xiaodong, you're overthinking it. We're all brothers, including Ji Yang. Now that Ji Yang has recovered, it's perfectly normal for him to be the leader! I can go back to school now!"
Shao Xiaodong shook his head and said, "Brother Chu, leaving the underworld is easier said than done. Now that you've already stepped in, there's no going back! Either don't come in at all, or once you're in, you can't go back out, otherwise, all your brothers will suffer..."
Chen Chu frowned: "What... exactly are you trying to say?"
"Brother Chu, use Ji Yang's men sparingly and cautiously. Only use truly honest people. Ji Yang is loyal enough, but the reason he can keep these brothers together is not only because of loyalty but also because of his iron-fisted approach."
Chen Chu smoothed his hair, then changed the subject, saying, "Xiaodong, you said Ma Houzi's parents are at Hancheng Hospital, but where is his nephew now? Who's protecting him? Can you find out?"
Shao Xiaodong was taken aback, and quickly asked, "What does Brother Chu mean?"
"Hehe...nothing else. Instead of hiding, let's give the monkey some more spice."
"Brother Chu, don't worry, I'll have someone take care of it right away..."
As Shao Xiaodong spoke, he took out his phone and dialed a number. Chen Chu also went to a small private room. He was also a little tired. It was already afternoon, and after a whole night and morning of tossing and turning, he felt he needed to take a nap.
Shao Xiaodong has informants, police, and even Fatty Yin, so he can know Ma Houzi's movements immediately.
Shao Xiaodong is his own pair of eyes, able to see the movements of all his opponents; he is the number one warrior.
Chen Chu couldn't sleep. He kept thinking about Shao Xiaodong's words and wondered what if Ji Yang recovered and the entire Xi Chu group was handed over to him? Going back to school wouldn't be bad either, but... just like Shao Xiaodong said, he had already taken the first step in. Could he really leave cleanly, or willingly?
Chen Chu was a little confused and wanted to go back and ask Old Man Zhang, but he just shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He now understands that others can only offer a few words of advice about his fate; ultimately, he himself is in control of his destiny.
Instead of asking others, think more about it and ask yourself more questions.
Chen Chu thought of many things, including what happened last night when he had sex with the woman at Ma Houzi's house. He wondered how that girl was doing. She was a nice woman. It felt so good.
A smug smile appeared on Chen Chu's lips. Then he thought of Ji Yang again, and shook his head. He and Ji Yang were brothers, so he shouldn't think about it too much.
...
Chen Chu woke up at eight o'clock in the night.
He hurriedly got up; Shao Xiaodong had already returned.
"How is it?" Chen Chu asked.
"Brother Chu, I found out. Ma Houzi's nephew is named Ma Guoqiang. He's from his uncle's family. He's currently at the Fourth Hospital, while Ma Houzi's father and his associates are at the First People's Hospital. The medical skills there are much better than at the Fourth Hospital. Initially, Ma Guoqiang had six people around him, but now it seems he only has four."
"Hmm..." Chen Chu nodded, then asked, "Xiaodong, I'm just curious, how did you find out so much detail?"
Shao Xiaodong chuckled and said, "Brother Chu, sometimes we only feel our own strength, but in reality, everyone's strength is limited. Only by being able to use the strength of others can we achieve greater success. Also, women... never underestimate them. They are more capable than men in crucial moments. For example, with intelligence, women can easily get information by charmingly asking a doctor at the hospital..."
"Excellent! Xiaodong, you'll be my strategist from now on!"
"Brother Chu, I can't do that, I was just talking nonsense."
At 10 p.m., Chen Chu changed into a set of casual clothes prepared for him by Shao Xiaodong. Chen Chu took a taxi to Hancheng Fourth Hospital by himself. His first impression was that the place was very chaotic.
Even at night, there are still many people coming to see the doctor, for one simple reason: it's cheap to see a doctor here.
Hancheng is a medium-sized city. There are some rich people, but there are more poor people. The rich people show off all day long, driving luxury cars around the streets every day, with young girls in tow.
But most of the people coming and going in the market are poor people; these four hospitals are just like a market.
Most of the people passing by were ordinary-looking patients, though occasionally there would be one or two flashy Mercedes-Benz cars.
Chen Chu was only here to scout out the route first. Once the route was cleared, it would save him a lot of trouble. He was wearing a medium-sized black trench coat, black jeans, and black sneakers. The collar of the trench coat was turned up high, covering half of his face, and he was wearing a black baseball cap, which also covered his face very low.
Chen Chu wasn't wearing sunglasses; that wouldn't have been a cover-up, but rather an act of ostentation.
Since you're the only man wearing sunglasses in the entire hospital, wouldn't you attract attention? Here, the more ordinary you are, the better.
Chen Chu is 1.72 meters tall, which is quite ordinary for an average person. No one noticed him. He didn't have Ji Yang's heroic spirit or Shao Xiaodong's handsomeness. His face was indifferent, sometimes with a smile and sometimes with a cold expression.
He smiles when he sees a beautiful nurse or a beautiful patient's relative, and he gets aroused, so he naturally smiles wickedly.
Calmness was achieved by gently turning the jade ring on his middle finger, which calmed his mind and brought him to a state of eerie tranquility, like that of a sage. His inner fire was extinguished as if it had been suddenly doused with sewage.
Chen Chu was waiting for someone, someone he was working with.
The man's name was Tang Li, and he was a woman. Shao Xiaodong told him all this. Chen Chu wanted him to find a prostitute to accompany him on a tour to check out the ward where Ma Guoqiang was staying, so that he would have a better understanding of the situation.
How to attack someone, which road did you come in from before attacking, where did you leave after attacking, where was the pickup van parked, etc. You can't just blindly grab a knife and start attacking. After attacking, you don't know where to run and just run around randomly. People like that are brainless. To survive in this world, you need to use your brain for everything, and you need to be even more intelligent when attacking someone.
Chen Chu only said that something pretty would be fine.
He's waiting now; it was supposed to be 10 o'clock, but there's still no sign of him.
Even at this time, there were still stalls selling roasted sweet potatoes and rolled pancakes at the main entrance of the Fourth Hospital.
Chen Chu took out two coins, wanting to buy something. In 2000, two yuan could buy a sweet potato to try.
Just then, Chen Chu's phone rang; it was from an unfamiliar number.
Chen Chu answered the phone, but before he could speak, the other party said, "Chen Chu?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Where?" the girl asked crisply, with a hint of domineering.
"It's at the main entrance of the Fourth Hospital!" Chen Chu said.
"Damn it, Shao Xiaodong, you're messing with me! I'm right here at the entrance of the Fourth Hospital, where are you?!" the woman cursed anxiously.
"I didn't see you added either," Chen Chu said, putting the two coins he had taken out back in.
"Damn! I have a hot pot restaurant called 'Love Heart' and a tea shop called 'East-West-Way' here, what do you have over there?"
Chen Chu paused for a moment, then looked up and said, "There's a big sign above my head that says 'Fourth People's Hospital.' Oh, and across the street is Hao Zi Wei Fast Food and Wang Lao Wu Barbecue..."
"I didn't ask you that!" the woman said curtly.
"Then what are you asking me?"
"I'm asking you which door you're from!"
Chen Chu was speechless: "I...I'm at the main entrance!"
"Damn it! Get out the back door! I'm waiting for you there!"
Chen Chu was about to say something when the other party hung up with a beep. Chen Chu looked around and changed the subject, his face twitching as he muttered under his breath, "Damn! Damn..."
