Chapter 573: Execution of Bart; Lu Xixiao gets into trouble, Wen Li discovers he's been tricked
After hearing what Abel said, Bart, who had ulterior motives, realized after a moment's thought that Abel had been planning to get rid of him.
I thought it was Abel who died at the hands of Wen Li and him, but I didn't expect that it was he and Wen Li who died at the hands of Abel.
Bart, who was still marveling at Wen Li's strength a few minutes ago, now looked at Abel, who had already seen through everything and had plotted against him. He couldn't help but feel frightened by Abel's insidiousness and scheming.
Bart reacted quickly and knelt a few steps forward, then prostrated himself at Abel's feet and cried bitterly, begging for mercy, repenting and making promises, playing the emotional card like crazy and recalling their brotherhood.
But how could Abel, who had wanted to kill him for a long time, let him go?
Even if Bart was willing to voluntarily hand over all his rights and assets and retire early from Gary, he still could not save his life.
Abel, completely unmoved by their past friendship, remained indifferent to Bart's pleas for mercy and declared, "Bart has murdered the governor. The evidence is irrefutable. Dick, this traitor is yours to execute."
Dick: “Yes.”
"My lord, my lord, my lord..."
Bart knelt down to chase after Abel, but his way was blocked. Bart raised his head and looked up at Dick with fear in his eyes.
Dick held his head high, his eyes lowered, looking at someone like a lost dog. "Since you've worked hard for so many years, even if you haven't done anything meritorious, I can help you fulfill one of your last wishes."
Bart, who had no other recourse, did not give up a glimmer of hope and grabbed Dick's trouser legs and begged: "Dick, Master Dick, please help me, help me beg the Master to spare my life. If you help me, all my assets will belong to you."
Dick ignored her and continued, "If you don't have a last wish, then I'll help you think of one. After all, I'm a man of my words. So, I'll send your son down to accompany you, so you two can be reunited in hell."
Bart shook his head: "No, it has nothing to do with him. Please let him go. My dead wife and I only have this one son."
Dick pulled the bolt, put the muzzle of the gun to Bart's forehead and said, "Don't be grateful to me. After all, even without me, your son would hardly be alive in his current state. If that shot hadn't taken that person into consideration, your son would have been dead."
Bart: "What do you mean?"
Dick answered irrelevantly: "Everything tonight is under the adults' control. I will help your son end his suffering."
Gunfire rang out.
Bart fell unwillingly in a pool of blood.
Dick turned and left.
Dick found Abel and asked, "Sir, did you really let that woman go? If we take this opportunity to control her, we might get an unexpected surprise."
Abel: "No rush. A conflict with Jinzhou now is likely to result in both sides losing. What will Jinzhou mean to me once I swallow Nanyang? If I know his weak spot, it will be difficult to control him."
"If I don't have a bargaining chip in my hand, I'm afraid Jinzhou has wolfish ambitions and wants to get a piece of the Nanyang pie. That person is very cunning, so we have to be careful." Dick was a little worried.
Abel: "Nanyang is such a fat piece of meat. Eating too much will make you feel bloated. I wish Jinzhou would ask me for a few bites. The Nanzhou governor is backed by the Chinese Lu family. If the Lu family retaliates against us, few will dare to stand behind us and help us resist. So we have to hold on to Jinzhou as an ally. Not only can we not touch her, but we have to ensure her safe departure from Gali."
Dick: “Understood.”
As they were talking, the two came to the place where the serious criminals were imprisoned at the westernmost part of the Governor's Mansion. They went deep into the basement and walked in the dimly lit corridor. There were cells on both sides. Most of the serious criminals in the cells had been tortured to death. There were only a few cells with people in them, but they were also dying. When they heard Dick's footsteps, they shrank into the corner like a frightened bird.
The basement was silent except for Dick's footsteps.
At the end of the passage is a black iron door. When the iron door opens, it turns into a sliding door. Through the gaps in the black bars, you can see Lu Xixiao in the cell being placed on an electric chair. His hands and feet are tightly bound with black iron chains, and even his neck is locked with an electronic collar. The iron collar is also connected to a black iron chain. His head is hanging down, and it is unknown whether he is alive or dead.
Wen Li left Zhou Changfu and drove to the hotel.
She held the steering wheel with one hand and took out the micro-eavesdropping device from her ear with the other hand. She brought it in front of her and spoke to Lu Xixiao on the other side of the eavesdropping device: "I'm hungry. Please help me order a midnight snack from the hotel front desk. I'll eat it before I leave. I don't want the food from last night. If I really don't have anything to eat, just some pasta will be fine."
Wen Li took the bug and played with it between his fingers.
The car turned into the street where the hotel was located. Wen Li noticed something strange at the hotel entrance from a distance. She narrowed her eyes slightly to see more clearly and stepped on the accelerator at the same time.
As the car approached, Wen Li saw the smoke and chaos after the battle at the hotel entrance. Wen Li suddenly had a bad feeling. Although she was worried that Lu Xixiao in the hotel might have met with an accident, she was rational and cautious and did not park the car at the hotel entrance. Instead, she drove the car to the opposite side of the hotel.
There is also a hotel opposite the hotel.
After entering the hotel, Wen Li asked the front desk for a room on the top floor.
This hotel is just across the street from the hotel where Lu Xixiao is staying. She paid extra and asked for a room that offers a view of Lu Xixiao's room across the street.
She didn't rush upstairs and borrowed a phone from the front desk.
Wen Li, who didn't know Lu Xixiao's current situation, hesitated for a moment before dialing Lu Xixiao's number.
The notification that no one answered the call made Wen Li frown slightly.
Wen Li, who had not deliberately memorized his subordinate's mobile phone number, took the phone and tried to recall it. After confirming the number, he dialed his subordinate's mobile phone, but no one answered.
problem occurs.
Wen Li then called Jiang Yingbai.
Wen Li was a little worried that Jiang Yingbai would not answer her strange call, but she didn't expect Jiang Yingbai to answer it unusually quickly.
But the more this happens, the more likely it is that something has gone wrong.
Jiang Yingbai: "Sister Li? Are you okay? I'm so glad you're okay. The locations of your two phones have been showing up together with his. I thought something happened to you too."
Wen Li: "What happened to Lu Xixiao?"
Jiang Yingbai: "Oh, by the way, Lu Xixiao is in trouble. He was hunted down right after you left. Jiali activated the signal jammer. Luckily, his phone was customized, and the system Lu Qi had repeatedly enhanced, so his call for help finally got through. He called his men in Nanyang, and he was captured and taken to Jiali Governor's Mansion. The location of his phone has not changed."
Wen Li couldn't help but be stunned.
As soon as she left, Lu Xixiao was exposed and taken to the governor's mansion. It was obviously not Bart who did it, and Bart was not so fast, so it could only be him who did it.
fake.
The mayor she killed was a fake.
Wen Li understood almost instantly.
I fell into a trap.
She and Lu Xixiao had been exposed long ago.
