The Epic Revenge Chapter 287: The aftermath
Gu Qingzhou went downstairs without shoes.
She stepped barefoot on the wooden floor, her skin was cold, and her feet were cold, she no longer trembled.
She called Huo Yuanjing.
The voice on the phone was calm and gentle: "Ajing, I have an accident, come here quickly, I can't handle it alone."
In the middle of the night, Huo Zuijing was pushed awake by the servant. After receiving such a call, Gu Qingzhou was so gentle and ghostly over there, Huo Zujing was frightened.
This must be a big deal.
"Okay, I'll be there soon." Huo Yuanjing said.
It was four o'clock in the morning. Huo Yujing was wearing a single trench coat, with two guns and a knife attached to her waist, ready to go out. Since it was an accident, Huo Zuojing had to be fully prepared.
At the door, she met her brother who had just returned home.
Huo Yue had a batch of goods arrived at the dock last night. He went to inspect the goods in person and didn't come back until the early morning.
"What to do?" Huo Yue asked.
At four o'clock in the morning, Huo Yue was stunned when a girl went out with a gun on her body.
Huo Zunjing said: "Qingzhou called me to come over."
Huo Yue hesitated and said, "I'll go with you. What did she say?"
Huo Yuanjing repeated Gu Qingzhou's words to her brother.
Huo Yue frowned.
Si Xingpei has not been in Yuecheng these days. Gu Qingzhou was afraid that there would be no one in his annex and that he could not find his adjutant, so he went directly to Huo Yuanjing.
When the Huo Yue brothers and sisters arrived, Gu Qingzhou was at the door of Gu's mansion.
She crouched in the dark corner of the gate.
When the car lights came on, she had black hair spread all over her body, a snow-white face, big and black eyes, cherry red lips, like a monster that ate people, crouching in the gloom.
Huo Zujing hurriedly supported her.
"Canoe?"
"Shh!" Gu Qingzhou asked her to whisper.
She glanced at Huo Yue, did not speak, nor asked why Huo Yuanjing brought Huo Yue over.
"Take off your shoes." Gu Qingzhou whispered.
Huo Yue and Huo Zhujing did as they did, taking off their shoes and carrying them in their hands.
She led Huo Yue and Huo Zujing to the third floor without waking anyone up.
Gu Qingzhou pushed open his door. As soon as they entered the door, Huo Yue and Huo Zuojing smelled blood.
Gu Qingzhou turned on the bedside lamp.
Her snow-print bedding was covered in blood. After more than 40 minutes of oxidation, the blood was dark black, like enchanting flowers blooming on her bedding.
The same goes for walls.
Huo Yue opened Ni Laojiu's body, he couldn't rest his eyes, his eyes were rounded, and his neck was about to be severed. Ni Laojiu was still holding a knife in his hand.
A stout man brought a knife to the girl's room in the middle of the night, and everyone knew what he was going to do!
Gu Qingzhou is just protecting herself.
Huo Zunjing hugged Gu Qingzhou's shoulder tightly: "It's okay, it's okay!"
Gu Qingzhou was almost numb, and there was no expression on her face. After the intense fear, she was left with indifference.
She wanted to pretend to be scared or guilty, but her physical stiffness and the lines on her face were out of her control, preventing her from posing.
She stared blankly at all this.
"What should I do?" Gu Qingzhou asked.
She asked Huo Yue.
She wanted to find Huo Yuanjing, and the two discussed it.
Gu Qingzhou's trusted friends are only Yan Luoshui and Huo Zuojing.
Yan Luoshui had never seen a dead person, so she would be afraid. Gu Qingzhou remembered that at the theater, Yan Luoshui said that Huo Zujing would kill people.
Only Huo Yuanjing can help her.
However, when Huo Yue came, Gu Qingzhou seemed to have found support. She knew Huo Yue's ability.
"Go downstairs first!" Huo Yue said to the two of them, "Ajing, take the light boat back to our house. Leave it to me and I'll handle it."
Gu Qingzhou was silent.
Huo Yue said: "Qingzhou, you believe me, you will only get in the way here, let's go first."
Huo Zunjing nodded: "Go, Qingzhou."
Gu Qingzhou stood firm and asked: "Master Huo, will it cause you trouble? You have helped me many times, this time it is the favor I owe you, and I will pay it back later."
Huo Yue smiled suddenly and said, "Okay, then I'll write it down, let's go."
Gu Qingzhou nodded, took a pair of shoes from the corner, and the two of them went downstairs quietly.
Sitting in the car, Gu Qingzhou couldn't hold her hand, and the blood all over her body was frozen.
At Huo Mansion, Gu Qingzhou sat in a daze on the sofa in Huo Yuanjing's room.
Huo Yuanjing instructed the servant: "Go and cook some sweet soup."
As if returning to her senses, Gu Qingzhou asked Huo Yuanjing, "Is there a cigarette?"
Huo Yuanjing didn't, she asked people to take it to her brother's yard.
The servant came with a box of cigars and a box of matches.
Gu Qingzhou has seen Si Xingpei smoking countless times. She is very skilled in cutting a cigar, lighting a match, and the blue smoke immediately lingers in front of her eyes.
She took a puff of cigarettes, she couldn't, she choked, Gu Qingzhou kept coughing.
Huo Yuanjing taught her: "Inhale slowly, inhale a little bit into your lungs, and then send it out, don't worry." She couldn't help but order one.
The servant brought the sweet soup and put it on the coffee table, which became cold before you knew it.
The sun shines in through the curtains.
It's already dawn.
Huo Yujing was a little sleepy and took a nap in a daze.
When Huo Yue came back, he saw Gu Qingzhou smoking by the window lattice.
Her black hair was loose, like a piece of the finest brocade, draped over her shoulders, and there was a faint ink glow in the sun. She warmed up to the sun, the cigar was hidden in her tender red lips, the smoke was lingering, and it was penetrated by the sun, like a thin veil.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Gu Qingzhou turned her head, her eyes were quiet, her brows squinted, like a delicate and flamboyant goblin.
The way she smokes is a little dusty, and Huo Yue thinks she is gorgeous. Gorgeous but not vulgar, enchanting to the extreme, can give birth to lush illusions.
Huo Yue's heart skipped a beat.
"Master Huo." She pressed the cigar into the ashtray as if returning to her senses.
The white porcelain ashtray on the table was already full of cigarette butts, and the two of them smoked a whole pack of cigars.
The excitement of the cigar made Gu Qingzhou tremble all over, but she felt a little more energetic.
"What's the matter?" Gu Qingzhou asked.
Huo Yue sent two nimble assassins to move Ni Laojiu from Gu Qingzhou's third floor to the guest room on the first floor.
The walls of Gu Qingzhou's room were completely replaced with new powder, sheets and bedding.
The assassin brought blood, and Ni Laojiu's guest room was turned into the first crime scene.
"Your father won't call the police, and no one thought of you leaving the house at this time." Huo Yue said, "Do you still dare to sleep in that room?"
Gu Qingzhou shook his head.
The swaying long hair is a little pitiful, and Huo Yue really wants to hug her.
This thought grew like grass in my heart, but it was pressed down again and again, like a tumbling ocean wave, crashing against the seawall at once, causing Huo Yue's heart to ache.
The pain made him short of breath.
"Don't smoke!" Huo Yue took the remaining cigars away.
Gu Qingzhou and Huo Yuanjing washed up and went to school.
The cigar's strength is very strong, Gu Qingzhou's hands have been shaking since then, and he can't hold the pen.
In the middle of the class, the superintendent said to Gu Qingzhou: "Qingzhou, your father is here and said something to take you home."
Gu Qingzhou was guilty of being a thief, his face was bloodless and pale.
Out of the school gate, she found that Gu Guizhang's face was even paler than hers.
Ni Laojiu died in Gu's mansion in a tragic state. If Gu Guizhang went to the police, the Gu family would be at the forefront again.
According to the character of taking care of Guizhang, this matter must be suppressed and never leaked.
He can't handle it himself and needs Gu Qingzhou's connections. In this respect, Gu Qingzhou is much stronger than Gu Guizhang.
"Abba, what's the matter with you?" Gu Qingzhou pretended to be at a loss.
Gu Guizhang said: "Get on the bus first."
On arrival at Gu Mansion, Gu Guizhang told Gu Qingzhou about Ni Laojiu's tragic death.
Gu Qingzhou bit her lip tightly, her full lips fell and pressed down.
"...Qingzhou, your sister is still in jail. If something happens to the Gu family again, we won't be able to turn over at all! Qingzhou, think of a way!" Gu Guizhang said hurriedly.
Last night, Ni Laojiu left and returned, saying that he was cut by someone, but he actually hurt himself.
He wanted Gu Qingzhou too much, so he used the excuse of staying overnight at Gu's mansion to occupy Gu Qingzhou.
Unexpectedly, he stole chickens without losing rice, and now that he is dead, he has a ready-made excuse.
Gu Guizhang didn't doubt, he subconsciously felt that it was the person who slashed Ni Laojiu yesterday and came to seek revenge in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, those people spared the rest of the Gu Mansion.
Gu Qingzhou was about to cry. At this time, she could vent her fear: "What can I do?"
"Go to General Staff Yan, he can help us find a way." Gu Guizhang said.
Gu Qingzhou was unable to fall on the chair.
She buried her head in her knees, her shoulders shrugging feebly, as if terrified.
"Qingzhou, you don't think about your family, but yourself. The Overseer said that you will marry the young marshal at the end of this year. This time and again, your family's reputation will be ruined." Gu Guizhang Almost begging her.
Gu Qingzhou vented her emotions recklessly, and she was also afraid.
After a while, she felt a little calm, and finally raised her eyes and said to Gu Guizhang, "Abba, we can't go to the foster father."
Gu Guizhang frowned.
"The foster father is a very decent person. If he persuades us to surrender and let the people from the police station investigate, what should we do then?" Gu Qingzhou said.
Gu Guizhang was startled.
"Then what's the point?" Gu Guizhang was anxious.
Gu Qingzhou became calmer instead, she said, "I want to ask Huo Ye for help!"
Gu Guizhang's eyes lit up.
The leader of the Green Gang, Huo Yue!
"Okay, there's nothing more suitable than Lord Huo." Gu Guizhang immediately agreed, "Master Huo is a savvy man, so he can be dealt with without knowing it."
"Well." Gu Qingzhou said.
No matter how upright this matter is handed over to Huo Yue, Huo Yue naturally agrees.
It's just that Gu Guizhang has since left a handle in Gu Qingzhou's hand.
Ni Laojiu died in Gu Mansion. No matter who killed it, it was Gu Guizhang's responsibility. If he chooses to conceal it, it means he is making a statement. Gu Qingzhou can even say that it is Gu Guizhang who killed Ni Laojiu.
Huo Yue took care of the people.
"Abba, that car..." Gu Qingzhou pointed to Ni Laojiu's own car and said, "It should also be taken away."
Gu Guizhang agreed.
After finishing these matters, Gu Qingzhou went to the third floor.
She stood at the door of the room, hesitated for a long time, and went in.
That night, she no longer dared to go to bed, but slept on the sofa with the light on.
