Wei Jie
Chapter 185 Returning to Dragon City, the Decisive Battle Approaches
It was a little after six in the evening when Yu Jinrong and Yu Mingyuan arrived in Dragon City and were picked up by the garrison for dinner.
The dinner lasted for more than two hours, after which the garrison personnel sent the Yu family father and son back to the villa, where Su Tianyu was already waiting.
The once lively Yu family villa now seemed very deserted. Yu Jinrong sat under a parasol on the lawn, his cheeks flushed and his posture relaxed. Yu Mingyuan, on the other hand, was anxiously pacing indoors, constantly asking Su Tianyu, "Is it reliable?"
"Hard to say," Su Tianyu replied while making tea.
"Damn it, hard to say? Then why did you have us both come back?!" Yu Mingyuan said with some worry, "I'm fine, but my dad..."
Su Tianyu glanced back at him, "Brother Yuan, tell me, what doesn't have risks these days? Li Xing, a cadre in uniform, says he can get someone beaten up outside the district, and they get beaten up. Is there any justice in this world?"
"Stop talking nonsense," Yu Mingyuan waved his hand impatiently.
Su Tianyu looked at him, "Brother, I'm in this too, I'm also taking risks."
Yu Mingyuan was silent.
"I'll do my best," Su Tianyu patted Yu Mingyuan's shoulder, picked up the brewed tea and the tea set, and turned to walk outside the villa.
Under the moonlight, Su Tianyu and the Yu family father and son sat in a triangular formation. Yu Jinrong drank his tea and said softly to Su Tianyu, "I won't ask about the process or the details, but I want to know, how will you clean up after this is over?"
Su Tianyu put his hands together and replied softly, "Whoever is the biggest beneficiary will foot the bill. We're the brains, we try to avoid getting our hands dirty."
Yu Jinrong took a sip of tea, "Good."
Su Tianyu looked at Yu Jinrong and smiled, then reached out and made the first call, "We can move now, I want to tie his hands."
"Understood," the other party replied.
...
Zhan Nan, inside Tianhong Port.
Xu Hu, Li Hongze, Li Xing, Lu Feng, Bao Cheng of the Longkou District, and Zhang Zhengfang and other members of the elders' council, as well as people from the Xue family outside the district, were all gathered together because they had just learned that Yu Jinrong had returned with his son.
Inside the living room, Li Hongze said in a low voice, "Confirmed, Yu Jinrong was picked up by the garrison as soon as he got off the plane. After dinner, it seems he went home."
"Wei Xiangzu just killed Cheng Gang not long ago, and they came back. I always feel... Lao Yu has something up his sleeve," Li Xing added.
"Who all came back? Can you find out?" Xu Hu asked Li Hongze.
"Besides Yu Jinrong and his son, it seems that the Su family kid also came back, because I heard he called the sanitation department, but I'm not sure," Li Hongze replied.
Xue Ping'an frowned, "The Su family kid, is that the one who killed my nephew on the mountain?"
"Yes, that's him," Li Xing nodded.
Xue Ping'an gritted his teeth and looked up at Xu Hu, asking, "Are you going to make a statement?! What are we going to do?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell silent. Xu Hu pondered for a few seconds before saying to Xue Ping'an, "Yu Jinrong coming back at this time, I always feel like he's prepared."
Hearing this, Xue Ping'an frowned and questioned, "Does he have preparations? Does that have anything to do with your decision? Now there's only one question in front of us, are you going to move against him or not? Before he came back, you were shouting outside that you were going to avenge your master, but now that he's back, you're not doing anything. Isn't that just slapping yourself in the face?"
Xu Hu rubbed his palms and fell silent.
Zhang Zhengfang took a puff of smoke and looked at Xu Hu, saying, "Hu Zi, Mr. Xue's words make sense. Now, many people in our dockworkers' association are watching you. Cheng Gang was brought back by you, and you told everyone about Lao Gu being killed, saying that it was a joint effort by the Yu family and Wei Xiangzu. If you want revenge, you have to show some attitude."
"I don't think there's anything to consider," Li Hongze said in a low voice, "If you don't make a move and just stalemate, when will this matter be settled?!"
Xu Hu was stuck in the main position, looked up at everyone, "I didn't say I wouldn't do it, but now the police station is watching too closely. If there's another big commotion in the city, none of us will be better off."
Everyone didn't respond, just looked at him, waiting for what he would say next.
Xu Hu slowly stood up, looked up at Xue Ping'an and said, "Brother Xue, come out for a moment."
Two minutes later, in the corridor.
Xu Hu said to Xue Ping'an in a concise tone, "The higher-ups are watching too closely, my people can't make a move in the city."
"What do you mean? Just say it directly," Xue Ping'an replied.
"You're from outside the district, so you do the job. You find the people, I'll pay the money," Xu Hu asked in a low voice, "Leave after you're done, and I'll take care of the rest, is that okay?"
Xue Ping'an thought carefully for a few seconds, then decisively agreed, "Okay!"
Xu Hu looked up at the conference room, "Don't say anything clearly when you go in later, wait until after it's done. The people in the room... aren't all good people."
Xue Ping'an understood what Xu Hu meant, "No problem."
"Okay, that's it."
The two of them settled the matter with a few words. In fact, the Xue family was supporting Xu Hu so strongly because they had no choice. They had invested too much in the early stage, and now they were completely stuck in this matter. If Xu Hu couldn't hold his ground in Zhan Nan, then all the investment would be in vain.
Xu Hu stepped back into the room and said to everyone, "Let's wait a moment."
In the corridor, Xue Ping'an, smoking a cigarette, made a call, "Hello? Let your people into Dragon City, wait for my call."
"Understood, Uncle."
At the same time, Xu Hu called a lackey to his side and whispered in his ear, "Find two people to go and lead the way, help Xue's people scout the area."
"Understood," the lackey replied and trotted out of the room.
Xu Hu looked at everyone, picked up the cigarette case and said, "No matter what, we'll see the results tonight."
...
Inside the Yu family villa, Su Tianyu looked at Yu Mingyuan and asked softly, "Who found the connections?"
"My uncle, Qi Qi's dad," Yu Mingyuan replied in a low voice, "Don't worry, that cadre specifically ran to District One to talk to us, he's very reliable."
Su Tianyu nodded upon hearing this and sent another short message, "Move faster!"
...
At the same time.
Kong Zhenghui, Bai Hongbo, Su Tianbei, Su Tiannan, and Zhou's Cui Bin also quietly rushed to Dragon City with their men.
At this point, the interest group centered on Xu Hu, after biting each other with the Yu family for several months, finally ushered in the final collision.
Yu Jinrong personally returning from District One had already determined that the ending would be seen tonight.
Outside Dragon City, inside a fishing port.
Wei Xiangzu held the phone and said in a low voice, "Sneak into the port, wait for my call."
"Understood, Brother," Xiao Feng replied.
...
Sinaloa, the Bocan region.
A dilapidated, half-cut off-road vehicle stopped at an intersection. A man opened the door and got out of the car, pulling a long, narrow box from the passenger seat.
