After Waking up Beside the Villain - Chapter 182

    “Li Lingbi?”

      It is Gao Lan in front of him. And Li Lingbi, the protagonist of the book, was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.

    Compared to the description of Li Lingbi’s arrogance, beauty and high-spiritedness in the original plot, the current Li Lingbi seems to be much haggard, her figure also shows a rickety feeling, and her complexion is sallow and withered.

    If it is just that the factory is not going well, it will never be like this.

    Chu Yunsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

    “When Bai Chu left Fengxiang class, he cut off communication with Li Lingbi. After Lu Yun went to talk about it, apart from some simple observations, I didn’t send anyone to monitor it closely. This Li Lingbi actually looks like this.” Yu Jingzhi said in a low voice.

    Chu Yunsheng has already come to a judgment and said: “It’s smoked.”

    Yu Jingzhi’s eyes moved slightly, looking at Chu Yunsheng, but there was no surprise in his expression.

    Although he is not a doctor, he has seen no one thousand but eight hundred smokers. When he saw Li Lingbi’s mood, he had doubts in his heart. What’s more, although he only took a glance or two from a distance when investigating the Xuan family, he still knew what Li Lingbi looked like in normal times.

    Yu Jingzhi thought for a while, and said: “After Adams died, the Xuan family fell, Xuan Qinghe disappeared, and he was suspected of being killed. On the third day after Xuan Qinghe disappeared, his A classmate, Gu Qishu, went to Xuan’s house to ask for Li Lingbi. Gu Qishu is Gu Feng’s son, so he shouldn’t be so stupid yet, he wants to control Li Lingbi with a big cigarette.”

    Xuanqing River may be dead?

    Chu Yunsheng frowned slightly, but he was not too surprised, even he and Yu Jingzhi guessed the same meaning in these words, suspecting that Gu Qishu discovered something was wrong with Li Lingbi and killed Xuan Qinghe , to capture people.

    In the original plot, Li Lingbi knew Gu Qishu because Gu Qishu was a classmate of Xuan Qinghe and had frequent contacts.

    The reason why Gu Qishu did not choose to share Li Lingbi with Xuan Qinghe as in the original plot is also very simple.

      Interests are tightly bound to him, and they are jealous and restrained from each other.

    Without too many preconditions and common interests, naturally there is nothing else.

    And now, Li Lingbi is here, is it a coincidence or something else?

    Chu Yunsheng sighed inwardly and continued to look at the street below the teahouse.

    In the space where Chu Yunsheng and the two were chatting briefly, Gao Lan had already stopped and avoided Li Lingbi, who was running over in a panic.

      The reason why he wanted to stop Li Lingbi and save people.

    Even though Gao Lan’s horse’s hooves didn’t even touch Li Lingbi, the young man wrapped in a bright red satin gown was still weak and staggered and fell in front of the horse.

    “Alert!”

    “Protect Master!”

    For this unexpected guest, the marching team immediately became vigilant and drew their guns in unison.

    A guard rushed over and held Li Lingbi down without saying a word.

    Gao Lan quickly pulled back, stared at Li Lingbi coldly, and said condescendingly, “Who are you?”

    The itch and desire to scratch the heart and lungs just receded, Li Lingbi was still in a trance, and she didn’t have time to react, so she was grabbed and pressed tightly, so strong that he let out a low cry .

    “His-pain!”

    He swayed and struggled, but was squeezed even tighter: “It hurts… let go, let me go…”

    One of the guards tapped Li Lingbi’s head with the **** of a gun: “Be honest! Our commander is asking you something!”

    “Big, handsome?”

    Li Lingbi shook her head and raised her head blankly.

    In the gradually clear vision, a dozen black guns pointed at him, and a tall and stern man in military uniform sat on a tall horse, looking at him gloomily and suspiciously.

    The strong smell of gunpowder smoke emanated from the muzzles of the guns, Li Lingbi was stunned, and blinked forcefully, finally confirming that this was not a hallucination.

    In an instant, his chaotic mind became calm and sober: “Commander…Are you Gao Langao from Northern Jiangxi Province?”

    Gao Lan frowned slightly: “You know me? Who sent you?”

     Trying to ignore these guns that were almost stabbed in the forehead, Li Lingbi stared straight at Gao Lan, with a sincere look, said: “I was not sent by anyone, and there is no one behind me. Power, don’t worry about this, Dashuai Gao. The reason why I am here is to ask Dashuai Gao to save me, and as a reward, I will also do my best to help you win Haicheng.”

    Speaking, Li Lingbi raised her face slightly, her tired and tired eyes lit up, revealing a detached and confident light.

    “You…help me take Haicheng?”

    Gao Lan was stunned for a moment, almost laughing out loud.

    Don’t say anything else, just look at the age of this young man, and openly in the public and in the eyes of countless street pedestrians, Gao Lan said the matter of seizing Haicheng. I wouldn’t believe it at all.

    At the same time, he also dispelled some doubts.

    Li Lingbi saw Gao Lan’s undisguised laugh and indifference, which did not surprise him. He knew that just a few words would never gain Gao Lan’s trust, so he was well prepared.

    “The commander came to Haicheng, have you ever heard of antipyretic pills, Zhixuesan, and those antibiotics rumored among high-ranking officials?” Li Lingbi said in a low voice.

    Gao Lan dragged the sentence on his lips and stopped abruptly.

    He looked at Li Lingbi suddenly.

    Antipyretic pills and the like are known to ordinary people in Haicheng, and it is not a secret, but antibiotics are a fairly new term, and even he took great pains to get them from foreigners. It is difficult for ordinary people to understand this.

    And now, this person can say it, and it looks very familiar.

    The horse kicked its hooves on the spot.

    Seeing Gao Lan staring at him thoughtfully without speaking, Li Lingbi added: “As long as the commander believes me, antibiotics are just a starting point. It is a new weapon that those foreigners can’t invent at present. , artillery, ammunition, and mechanical equipment are also readily available.”

    Gao Lan’s eyes flashed.

    It is the masters who returned from overseas in Peiping, but they dare not say such words, what confidence does this young man have? Is it really unusual, or is it really not sober after smoking too much?

    “What’s your name?”

    After a moment of silence, Gao Lan asked.

    Li Lingbi smiled, knowing that although Gao Lan still didn’t believe his words, she had already developed interest and greater suspicion in him.

    In this case, as long as Gao Lan is not stupid, he will definitely keep him, and as long as he stays, with the things in his mind, he will be able to prove his worth sooner or later.

    “My name is Li Ling…”

    “Ling Bi!”

    Li Lingbi’s words were interrupted by an eager shout.

    Everyone looked at the prestige, and saw an elegant young man in a robe and glasses carrying a small bookcase from a rickshaw parked on the street and hurried to this side, Seeing Li Lingbi being suppressed, her face became even more worried and anxious.

    When they got close, the young man didn’t wait for the guards to stop him, but he didn’t get too close, he stopped a few steps away, and said, “But Mr. Gao Langao? Gu Qishu, my father, Gu Qishu. peak.”

    Gao Lan’s expression changed slightly when he heard the word Gu Feng.

    He was no longer sitting on the horse’s back like he was high, and immediately turned over and dismounted, walked towards Gu Qishu, and smiled: “It turns out to be Mr. Gu’s beloved son, Mr. Qishu. Gao often loves to read “Wenxin Daily”, and Mr. Qi Shu really admired it for a long time.”

    The two shook hands, and Gu Qishu also smiled: “Gu has also been famous for Mr. Gao for a long time, and I wish I could meet and make friends. I heard that Mr. Gao entered the city today, so I wanted to come over and have a look. Demeanor, but unexpectedly met an acquaintance.”

    Speaking of this, Gu Qishu paused, then glanced at Li Lingbi who looked at him suspiciously.

    Gao Lan understood and pointed to Li Lingbi: “This is Mr. Qi Shu’s acquaintance?”

    Gu Qishu smiled helplessly, nodded and said, “Exactly.”

    “To be honest with Mr. Gao, my acquaintance is named Li Lingbi, who was once an apprentice in a theatre troupe, and was picked up by the Xuan family, Xuan Qinghe, and was admitted to the Fuzhong. Qinghe and I were classmates when we stayed in Japan. , I often go to his house, and I also have a very personal relationship with Ling Bi. The Xuan family had an accident two days ago, and Qinghe sent Ling Bi to my residence and asked me to take care of it for a while.”

    “But I didn’t expect that Ling Bi and Qinghe secretly smoked opium behind my back.”

    “This opium is not a good thing. When I found out about this matter, I wanted to help him quit. But I didn’t think so. As soon as I returned to the mansion today, I saw all the servants in the mansion. After chasing it out, she didn’t even notice it, causing Ling Bi to become addicted to smoking again, breaking free from the **** and running out.”

    “Ling Bi is very addicted to smoking and is not sober anymore. If there is any collision that offends Mr. Gao, please look forward to Mr. Gao Haihan.”

    Gao Lan is thoughtful and suspicious, but he will not listen to Gu Qishu’s words.

    “Mr. Qi Shu is serious.”

    Gao Lan waved his hand and smiled: “It’s not a small matter. It’s just that your acquaintance mentioned antibiotics just now…”

    The voice gradually decreased, and when Gao Lan said the last three words, he raised his eyes slightly, noticing Gu Qishu’s expression without a trace.

    “Antibiotics?”

    Gu Qishu was stunned, frowned, and whispered: “This kind of thing has stirred up some wind and rain in Haicheng, and Mr. Gao must know it. It belongs to Mr. Yu from Haicheng, Fang Fang. Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, took it to visit some foreigners in an attempt to change the outcome of the European conference.”

    “But in vain.”

     “Instead, the drug was leaked, causing all parties to covet. If it weren’t for Yu Jing’s great power and cautious actions, I’m afraid that Haicheng would no longer be in today’s situation.”

    Not finding anything from Gu Qishu’s expression, Gao Lan didn’t want to hear any more information that he had already known, so he interrupted: “Naturally, Gao already knows about these things. Gao is different, Mr. Qi Shu is in Haicheng, even if Yu Jingzhi hides it tightly, he should be able to have some news, who knows who developed this miracle drug?”

    Perceiving the aggressiveness in Gao Lan’s tone, Gu Qishu’s eyes sank, but he sighed and said with a smile: “Mr. Gao really thinks highly of me. My father has some ability, and Gu is only a middle school teacher now, what news can you have?”

     “However, I do hear a little bit about the person who developed the antibiotic.”

    “It is said that the German extermination of the Oriental Intelligence Network and the death of Mr. Adams are related to this person. It is the Xuan family where Qinghe lives, and it is also the order given by this person. According to sources, it is most likely a doctor by Yu Jingzhi’s side.”

    Gao Lan listened carefully, frowning slightly: “Doctor?”

    Gu Qishu nodded: “The specific identity has not been disclosed, only Mr. Pitt of England once said that the doctor stole the research results of a British university professor when he was abroad, and was able to develop it. But Mr. Pitt didn’t ask Yu Jingzhi to ask anyone, so he must have his own plans. Now that Mr. Gao came to Haicheng, he was going to affect his whole body, but he had to be more careful.”

    I got some unexpected information, and Gao Lan’s mood improved a lot. He heard the words and smiled: “Thank you Mr. Qi Shu for your concern, Gao will be careful.”

    He believed in Gu Qishu’s information, and knew that Gu Qishu had no need to lie to him. After all, he had already come to Haicheng. As long as he investigated carefully, he would naturally get this information.

    And since Gu Qishu gave what he wanted, of course he would not be stingy.

    “Since Mr. Qi Shu is here to lead this young man back, then Gao would not be able to stay any longer.”

    Gao Lan made a choice.

    Li Lingbi’s white-toothed nonsense and the real information given by Gu Qishu, the former is more like a daydream and a madness.

    Besides, since the antibiotics were developed under the hands of Yu Jingzhi, how could it be known by a big smoker casually?

    Gao Lan thought of the interest and wavering she had when facing Li Lingbi’s Haikou, as well as the looming expectation and trust, she suspected that she had also smoked a lot of cigarettes and was not sober.

    Thinking of this, Gao Lan turned around and ordered: “You guys, help Mr. Qi Shu send people back!”

    “Thank you, Mr. Gao.”

    Gu Qishu knew what Li Lingbi must have said, which made Gao Lan still doubtful, so he sent someone to show him off.

    He did not refuse, and he also knew that even if Li Lingbi said, it is impossible to say too much, and, if you have not really met or have long-term contact with Li Lingbi, even if you say it, It’s also hard to believe.

    “Great handsome! Great handsome! Don’t believe Gu Qishu’s nonsense, I have nothing to do with him, he kidnapped me and kidnapped me from the Xuan family! I didn’t want to **** big by myself. Cigarette, he forced me to smoke in order to control me and get the knowledge in my head! You save me, handsome! As long as you save me, I will give you all the knowledge!”

    Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Lingbi bit her teeth and shouted loudly.

    Gao Lan glanced at Gu Qishu, saw that he had no other emotions than embarrassment and helplessness, and waved his hand: “Shut up.”

    Li Lingbi widened her eyes and finally panicked.

    He has many chances to escape, the reason why he waited until now is to wait for Gao Lan. He overheard the news that Gao Lan had entered the city today, and knew that only a big man like Gao Lan could really rescue him. But now Gao Lan doesn’t believe his words.

    “Master! I really know a lot of things! I can tell you how antibiotics are developed, how those foreigners’ cannons are made, I also know those forces outside, know the future direction, I am from People from a hundred years later, I – um, um!”

    The sour-smelling cloth ball was firmly stuffed into his mouth, cutting off all the voices.

    When Li Lingbi saw Gao Lan, her confidence was all shattered. He struggled in panic and fear, spitting out the cloth ball in his mouth, but he was only held tightly.

    He wanted to shout, to simply disregard how those things were made, to gain the last bit of trust and vitality.

    But he couldn’t shout, couldn’t say, even his brain that was eroded by the smoke began to be confused again, and he couldn’t even remember the production methods of all kinds of items that were usually very clear.

    Looking at Li Lingbi’s almost crazy appearance, Gao Lan’s last doubts disappeared.

    He glanced at Li Lingbi with pity and contempt, and said: “Maybe it’s an addiction. I heard that Haicheng and those antipyretic pills also came out with some drugs to quit smoking? Our army Some people have used it, but it’s not bad, Mr. Qi Shu might as well try it.”

     Hearing this, Li Lingbi raised his head, wanted to explain, wanted to speak, but when he heard the words of the pedestrians watching not far away, he instantly froze—

    “This is too crazy, it’s a crime, how many cigarettes have to be smoked, it’s like this!”

    “Looking at the young master from a rich family, he just smoked cigarettes and went crazy, tsk tsk…”

    “Hey, did you hear? Just now this lunatic shouted, saying that he came from a hundred years later, he is really crazy, he is talking nonsense…”

    At this time, the servants of Gu Qi’s house also chased here.

    The two ended their chat, and Gu Qishu didn’t stay any longer. He took his servant and Li Lingbi, who was being held by the guards, and turned away.

    “What a farce.”

    He lit a cigar, took a deep breath, and was about to get back on his horse and move on.

    Just as soon as he took a step back, he heard some strange noises, subconsciously raised his head, and saw that all the windows on the second and third floors of all the shops on the street were open, and guns were fired one by one. The mouth appeared, densely packed, and murderous intent overflowed.

    With one exception.

    Guanglai Teahouse’s private room on the second floor, Yu Jingzhi looked out of the window, with a slight smile on his lips, said loudly: “Gao Lan, go upstairs and sit?”
