"You and I have actually met each other a long time ago." Si Qingyang said again.

Gu Mengping looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"When I was at the border of Province Y, I was the one who handed over the things to you." Si Qingyang said.

Brother Dao's information was not inaccurate at the time. At that time, he had been lurking in Asia, but his identity did not allow him to return to China immediately, so he could only send things back through other channels.

And Gu Mengping, who was working as an undercover agent at the time, was his connector.

After Si Qingyang finished speaking, Gu Mengping's face showed a bit of disbelief, and some past events gradually appeared in his mind.

He was still young at that time, and he didn't remember many things, but he could still recall a pair of cold eyes on that oil-painted face.

"We must complete the mission." The other party looked at him, and the oppressive aura rushing towards his face forced Gu Mengping to nod heavily.

Then the man left, peeling away the layers of bushes, the resolute back now makes Gu Mengping feel excited.

But Gu Mengping never thought that that person was Si Qingyang, nor did he think that it was because of this sentence that he would blame himself for a long time in the future.

Because, he did not fulfill his promise, and the whereabouts of that item is still unknown to this day.

Gu Mengping was in a complicated mood. He stared at Si Qingyang for a long time, and finally he just sighed. If he had successfully sent the things back then, there might not have been so many things that happened later.

However, he may never have anything to do with Si Qingyang in his life.

Can't say whether it's good or bad, but at least he should clean up the mess he caused now.

The displeasure in his heart was also overwhelmed by guilt. If he hadn't had an accident at the time, then Si Qingyang wouldn't have had such a hard time leaving now.

Gu Mengping thought so in his heart.

Although there wasn't much communication between the two of them, Si Qingyang was just lying with him in his arms at night, doing nothing, just holding him in his arms honestly.

But Gu Mengping knew that the bond between them was getting deeper and deeper. From the very beginning, there was a thread connecting the two of them, an inescapable fate.

He never regretted meeting Si Qingyang.

On the second day, there was an extra email in Gu Mengping's mailbox, which was about the things he asked someone to check about Bo Jianning last time. Gu Mengping was not surprised at the content of the email.

But what Gu Mengping didn't expect was that Bo Jianning took the initiative to ask him to meet, and he said that he would meet him before turning himself in.

Gu Mengping also knew in his heart that Bo Jianning probably already knew that he was investigating him, otherwise he would not have done so.

"You come alone." That's what Bo Jianning said on the phone.

Standing aside, Si Qingyang heard it clearly. He just frowned and didn't make any other expressions.

Gu Mengping thought about it and agreed to him.

In the afternoon, the storm swept again and the road conditions were not very good. It took Gu Mengping nearly an hour to drive to Bo Jianning's residence. When he opened the car door, the pouring rain instantly soaked his coat.

He walked into the courtyard of Bo's family, and Bo Jianning opened the door of the villa for him inside.

The place was still as familiar to him as ever.

"Tell me if you have anything to say, and I'll take you there when you're done." Gu Mengping was referring to taking him to surrender, and I believe that Bo Jianning has also made up his mind.

"It's been so many years, don't worry about this day or two, right?" Bo Jianning smiled, not as serious as Gu Mengping.

"Sit down and tell me. I think you'll want to know some stories." Bo Jianning poured Gu Mengping a cup of hot tea, which had a faint fragrance of jasmine. Bo Jianan liked this kind of flower tea before.

"Are you referring to the killing of the driver, or the resigned shareholders of the Bo Group?" Gu Mengping took the cup from his hand and put it on the coffee table, not intending to drink it.

He got across to Bo Jianning, lit a cigarette for himself, Bo Jianning adjusted his glasses, and gave a faint smile, as if he was mocking something.

"No, it's not about this, it's about Jian'an." He said.

Gu Mengping's expression stiffened a little, but he didn't speak.

"I think you should have guessed something, the truth about his return and return." Bo Jianning leaned on the sofa, looked at Gu Mengping's expression, and the corner of his mouth smiled even wider.

"Back then I robbed him halfway and locked him up in this room." Bo Jianning's eyes swept around.

Everything is the same as before, the house is well taken care of, even after so many years, there are still no signs of obsolescence, as if nothing has changed, but the empty room makes people uncomfortable.

"He begged me to let him go, but how could I let him go so easily." Bo Jianning murmured, as if thinking about something, with a smile on his lips, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

"What did you tell him?" Gu Mengping shook the cigarette ash in his hand, his face was expressionless, like a bystander, listening to something that had nothing to do with him.

"I told him the truth! I told him that his elder brother is a murderer, and he is the murderer's younger brother." A bit of madness appeared in Bo Jianning's eyes, his hand holding the cup gradually tightened, and his veins bulged. Whitening of the joints.

"He is not with you. He is destined to leave your side, and he doesn't need to work hard for you. You will die sooner or later." When Bo Jianning looked at Gu Mengping again, his eyes were tinged with hatred.

"But I didn't expect him to run out secretly, and he never came back after this trip." Bo Jianning took out a pocket watch from his chest. The pocket watch was a little old. When he opened it, there was a family photo inside. Gu Mengping saw passed.

"When did you start working with them?" Gu Mengping asked.

Bo Jianning was stunned for a moment, put away the pocket watch, put it away in his breast pocket, and raised his head to look at Gu Mengping.

"Forgot, it's been a while." Bo Jianning said.

"Who else is in the organization?" Gu Mengping asked again.

"There are many, all kinds, but I don't understand or know them. I don't have much to do, just provide contacts and money." Bo Jianning said.

Gu Mengping stopped asking, and the atmosphere was silent. Gu Mengping lowered his head, and Bo Jianning didn't open his mouth. All he could hear was the pattering rain outside the window. He didn't know how long it had been before Gu Mengping suddenly stood up.

"Let's go, it's time." Gu Mengping said flatly.

He turned around first, and Bo Jianning also stood up, following behind Gu Mengping.

"I found what you want, don't you want to take it and leave?" Bo Jianning said.

Gu Mengping took back the steps he had just taken, and he stood straight on the spot.

"But you need to cooperate."

"what?"

As soon as Gu Mengping finished speaking two words, he felt a hint of danger. Bo Jianning had already leaned over, holding a gun in his hand, and pressed it against Gu Mengping's waist.

"I don't really want to go to jail, so I can only keep you for a few days." Bo Jianning took off his pair of glasses, his eyes were somewhat fierce, Gu Mengping thought, this is his original appearance, hidden in the The madness behind it.

"So, you didn't find anything?" Gu Mengping didn't move, he just asked quietly.

Bo Jianning's expression was stiff. He didn't answer, but just took out two climbing ropes from the side drawer, which were about as thick as little fingers and very solid.

"Tie up your legs." Bo Jianning said.

Gu Mengping did as he did, he didn't release the water, and under Bo Jianning's gaze, he tied himself a tight knot, which was very tightly tied.

"Why don't you resist?" Bo Jianning looked at him.

"It doesn't make any sense. I don't want to go out and be beaten into a sieve." Gu Mengping was very rational.

Since Bo Jianning dared to ask him to come, he was naturally vigilant. When he parked the car, the curtains on the second floor moved, but Bo Jianning opened the door for him downstairs. It couldn't be Bo Jianning. There were other people upstairs, Gu Mengping I won't be so stupid as to head-on.

"Should I also meet your guest?" Gu Mengping asked.

Bo Jianning didn't say a word, he put away his gun, took out another rope and tied Gu Mengping up too.

"Long time no see, Mr. Gu." A voice came from the stairs, with some joyful tone, so familiar that Gu Mengping knew who it was without looking up.

"Shen Xi, long time no see." He still looked like that boy, still so clean and pure, several months passed, and he didn't see any change.

"Mr. Gu, don't be nervous. You will be released in two days." Shen Xi took the untied rope from Bo Jianning's hand, and the strength in his hand was a little stronger. Gu Mengping felt his wrist hurt, but he didn't Did not say anything.

"Where's your boss?" Gu Mengping asked.

"What boss?" Shen Xi didn't raise his head, he kept staring at his hands seriously, and only after finishing a complicated knot did he raise his head to look at Gu Mengping.

"I was once very confused. What kind of organization and structure do you have? I don't quite believe what the outside world says. It's just a group gathered for the sake of disputes. Your existence is like a cult. Similarly, brainwashing everyone, instilling your so-called justice and so-called beliefs, but in the end it is just to cover up your desire for power and wealth." Gu Mengping said flatly.

Shen Xi once said that he is a good man, he is not a murderer, but see you today, Gu Mengping knows that this person with clean glasses is the same type of person as Fu Jiu, with a good skin in disguise, but in his heart It is dark and amazing, this is a person who has been stained with blood.

"Mr. Gu may not understand that for people like us, revenge is more important than life." Shen Xi Jiang Kai felt that Gu Mengping was inconvenient to move, so Gu Mengping simply sat back, even if his wrists were tied, he still picked up The cup of tea that Bo Jianning poured for him was fragrant, but tasteless.

Because of the hatred in their hearts, the law can no longer seal the beasts in their hearts. They want to exist outside the law and want to establish another rule by themselves. Gu Mengping even began to lament their whimsy and was surprised by their years of planning.

The rules that exist today have been continuously improved to the point where they are today, and will be even more perfect in the future, but this group of people want to break the rules, not to mention how they are in other countries, but they dare to extend their hands into the territory, it is inevitable A little too bold!
