724. Chapter 724 Lin Yan's Plan (1/2)
It was not until the evening that the excitement in the Soul Restaurant gradually subsided, and ordering had stopped. There were only three or four tables of unfinished customers left in the restaurant. Once these people were sent away, today's business would be completely over.
"Damn! I'm finally done!"
Lin Mei grinned and tugged on her collar in an imageless manner, from which she could vaguely see the hint of spring.
Lin Shu, who had cleaned up the kitchen on the other side, also wiped her towel and walked out. She glanced at the few remaining guests in the restaurant, then came to the counter and spoke calmly to Lin Yan, who was settling accounts.
"Lin Yan, I want to rest tomorrow."
"Okay, let's close the store tomorrow."
Lin Yan nodded lightly and did not object. They did not open the store to make money. They could open it as they pleased. It was completely up to them.
"Boss Lin, bring me another bottle of plum blossom wine."
"OK, wait."
Hearing the order coming from the corner of the restaurant, Lin Yan responded loudly. Although the kitchen had stopped, drinks and other ready-made items could still be served.
Lin Shu was about to turn around to get it. Lin Wu, who had finished tidying up the stairs upstairs, happened to come down. She glanced at the two people in the corner and whispered to Lin Shu.
"Sister Lin Shu, let me go get it."
After saying that, she turned around and entered the wine cellar next to the kitchen. Lin Mei glanced at Lin Wu who entered the wine cellar, then looked at the two people in the corner, frowned involuntarily, and came to Lin Yan's side to ask quietly.
"Lin Yan, are Lin Wu's contacts with them becoming more and more frequent? Is it okay?"
"Don't worry about that. They can't detect it with their strength." Lin Yan rolled her eyes at Lin Mei, "Every day, they care about these insignificant things."
The corners of Lin Mei's mouth couldn't stop twitching. Although she was angry, she was quickly discouraged.
That's right, if those two people could detect anything, how could they stay in the Black Corner Territory for three years anonymously.
At this time, the camera moved, and there was a man and a woman sitting at the table in the corner of the restaurant where they had just ordered plum blossom wine. The man looked unrestrained and unrestrained, and the woman also had an extraordinary temperament. You could tell at a glance that both of them were very human. And this is indeed the case.
Xiao Yan's cousin and cousin, Xiao Ning, the head of the intelligence department of the hell prison, is a one-star Dou Zun, and Xiao Mei, the director of the logistics department of the hell prison, is at the peak of Douzong strength.
"Ah~~~ I haven't seen cousin Xiao Yan for a long time. I miss him so much. I don't know when he will come back."
Xiao Mei kept her face straight. Although her once delicate and wild personality had matured over many years of time and work, the expression on her face when she mentioned Xiao Yan was still as full of nostalgia as when she was a child.
Xiao Ning, who was opposite, waved her chopsticks and responded casually.
"I'm afraid it won't work during this period. During this period, I often receive news from Zhongzhou. He is very busy. Now the Black Corner Territory is nothing compared to him."
Xiao Yan's establishment of the Tianhe Alliance has long been reported to the Black Corner Territory. It is a super alliance that covers almost the entire Zhongzhou. It is not comparable to the central commercial areas of the northwest continent such as the Black Corner Territory. Tianhe Alliance is currently busy, and Xiao Ning really can't think of a reason why Xiao Yan can take the time to come back.
Of course Xiao Mei understood what Xiao Ning said and sighed deeply.
"That's right. Cousin Xiao Yan has a lot of things to do in Zhongzhou, and the children have also taken care of it. There is no need to come back."
"Hey~ Speaking of children, Xiao Yan is really full of peach blossoms in his life. How many are there?" Xiao Ning teased happily, looking at Xiao Mei lightly raising her eyebrows and smiling maliciously, " What? You haven’t given up yet?”
Xiao Mei's nerves were aroused slightly, her light red eyes stared at Xiao Ning angrily, and said coldly.
"You don't need to speak if you can't speak. If you can't, I can sew your mouth shut for you."
"Hey, hey~ It's better to avoid it, I just rely on this mouth to work now."
Xiao Ning quickly raised his hands to surrender. He really had no idea about this younger sister Xiao Ning. Even though she was already in a higher level now, she was still pushed to the ground and beaten.
Of course, Xiao Mei didn't really intend to take action. Now Xiao Ning's status in the Black Corner Territory is not low. Although Xiao Mei's attitude towards him has always been that way, she still has to save some face for her cousin, otherwise he will I really won’t be able to work anymore.
Then Xiao Mei looked slightly downcast and said leisurely.
"By the way, there is no news about Sister Xiao Yu yet."
"Well"
Xiao Ning's hands holding the vegetables suddenly froze, and his expression instantly became depressed.
It has been almost seven years since Xiao Yu was kidnapped, but there is still no news and no one knows how Xiao Yu is doing now.
They all believe in Xiao Yan and believe that Xiao Yan will do his best to bring Xiao Yu back.
But some things cannot be achieved by trying your best.
"Hello, is this the plum blossom wine you ordered?"
Just when the two of them were depressed, a pleasant voice broke their thoughts. They turned around and saw that it was Lin Wu standing at the table holding a wine jar filled with plum blossom wine. Xiao Ning reacted and ordered with a light smile. nod.
"We ordered it."
"Sister Lin Wu, thank you."
Xiao Mei also smiled and nodded her thanks. Lin Wu smiled softly, held the wine jar and started pouring wine into the glasses in front of them, and then asked softly.
"Is the Xiao Yu you just mentioned the previous acting leader?"
"Eh? Did you hear that?"
Xiao Mei was slightly stunned, while Lin Wu apologized softly and embarrassedly.
"Sorry, I didn't eavesdrop on purpose. I happened to overhear something when I just came here." Lin Wu slowly placed the wine jar on the table. "It's just that I have often heard this name in the Black Corner Territory in the past few years, but I have always heard it. I’ve never seen her before, so I’m a little curious about this person.”
"It's okay, it's okay. Sister Lin Wu, you don't need to apologize. Sister Xiao Yu's matter is not a secret in the Black Corner Territory itself."
Xiao Mei waved her hand lightly, and Xiao Ning held the wine glass and spoke leisurely.
"Sister Xiao Yu is my biological sister and also Xiao Mei's clan sister. She was kidnapped in the Black Corner Territory a few years ago. There is no news about her until now."
"So that's it. Sorry, I shouldn't have asked."
Lin Wu showed apology on her face. After Xiao Ning drank the wine, he shook his head and smiled slightly.
"It's okay, there's nothing taboo about this." Xiao Ning picked up the wine jar and poured himself wine, "And I don't know why, but I always feel that Sister Lin Wu always gives me a special sense of intimacy, so I often come here to eat. "
"Eh? Are you the same? Me too, I always feel like I have seen Sister Lin Wu somewhere, but I can't remember it." Xiao Mei also looked surprised, and Lin Wu also looked at them in astonishment.
Although she didn't speak, Lin Wu actually had an inexplicable feeling in her heart. She felt that she had known Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei a long time ago.
After that, the three of them chatted for a while. When the wine table was almost full, Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei also greeted Lin Yan to pay the bill. Then they waved goodbye to Lin Wu and left the restaurant to walk under the moonlight.
After sending the two of them off, Lin Wu came to the table and started clearing it. She was still humming a tune softly, obviously in a good mood.
"Hey, Lin Wu, why are you so happy? Tell me about it, sister?"
Lin Mei suddenly came up and hugged Lin Wu's shoulders. Lin Wu was shocked at first, then relaxed and smiled softly when she saw Lin Mei.
"It's nothing, I just had a great time chatting with Xiao Ning and the others."
"Xiao Ning? Those two just now?"
Lin Mei's expression was stagnant, and something was obviously wrong in her eyes, but Lin Wu didn't notice it at all and kept talking to herself.
"Well, I don't know why they give me a very cordial feeling. It seems like they have known each other a long time ago."
"Is it."
Lin Mei frowned tightly and turned to wink at Lin Yan and Lin Shu. Lin Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, walked over slowly and chuckled.
"It's a very cordial feeling. Could it be said that it's more cordial than the three of us?" Lin Yan raised her sleeves to wipe the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes with a sad look, "Look at how hard we three sisters have worked. I took care of you, but I didn’t expect that two random people would pick you up and run away, woo woo~”
Lin Mei and Lin Shu looked at Lin Yan pretending to cry, and their expressions were speechless. Your way of changing the topic was too...
"Sister Lin Yan, don't cry, you must be the closest to me!"
Holy shit! Is it really effective?
Lin Mei and Lin Shu looked in shock at Lin Wu who came up to comfort Lin Yan. Lin Yan saw Lin Wu hurriedly come up to comfort her. The pretentious sadness on her face was wiped away, revealing a gentle smile and raising her hands gently. Rubbing Lin Wu's hair.
"You're kidding. Of course you're happy to have other friends and sisters. The restaurant happens to be closed tomorrow. Why don't you go and ask them to hang out with you?"
After hearing Lin Yan's words, both Lin Mei and Lin Shu's expressions changed, while Lin Wu's face was full of joy.
"Is it really possible?"
"Yeah~ of course." Lin Yan patted Lin Wu's head and said softly: "You can go back today and leave the rest to us. You have to dress up when going out with friends tomorrow."
"good!"
Lin Wu nodded happily, waved goodbye to Lin Yan and the other two, and hurriedly left the restaurant.
After Lin Wu left, Lin Mei and Lin Shu's expressions suddenly stopped pretending, and Lin Mei stared at Lin Yan with resentment in her eyes.
"Lin Yan, what did you mean by what you just said?" Lin Mei stood in front of Lin Yan, "Don't you know the relationship between those two people and Lin Wu? And you let Lin Wu get so close to them?"
Regarding everything about Lin Wu, Lin Yan and the others had figured out everything clearly when they first arrived in the Black Corner Territory. Because of this, Lin Mei did not want Lin Wu to come into contact with Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei.
If Lin Wu really recovers her memory later, then what do they mean to Lin Wu?
Compared to Lin Mei, Lin Shu seemed much calmer. She knew that Lin Yan would never do anything without reason. After thinking for a moment, she frowned and looked at Lin Yan and asked.
"Do you think the time is almost up?"
"Time? What time?"
Lin Mei turned to look at Lin Shu, her mind full of questions and she couldn't understand what she was talking about. Lin Yan looked at Lin Shu and nodded lightly.
"Well, it's been three years. To be honest, I feel that this time has been too long." Lin Yan turned around and came outside the restaurant, looking up at the starry sky, "I got news some time ago that Xiao Yan established Tianhe in Zhongzhou The League has done many things in the past three years, and one of them is to start liquidating the outlaws who have committed numerous crimes in Zhongzhou.”
"And among them, of course, we are included."
Lin Yan's voice was extremely low. Not to mention the things they had personally committed, just the blame Yunying put on their heads was enough for Xiao Yan to kill them all.
More importantly, Xiao Yan already knew that Lin Wu was with them. Even if it was just for Lin Wu, Xiao Yan would never let them go.
"Besides, don't forget that she is still watching us." Lin Yan glanced at Lin Mei and Lin Shu, who looked unhappy. "Even if we can hide with Lin Wu for a lifetime, we can never hide from her. She can even wipe us out from this world now if she wants."
"The reason why she hasn't taken action yet is that she is just waiting for me to find her actively. However, it has been three years. With her patience, she can wait for us for three years. Even I am surprised."
"That means we should face reality."
Lin Mei and Lin Shu were silent for a long time after listening. Lin Mei clenched her fists and asked in a deep voice.
"So what you mean is to push Lin Wu out as soon as possible?"
"What else?" Lin Yan turned around and looked at Lin Mei, and said coldly: "Or do you want to take Lin Wu with us to be buried?"
"I"
Lin Mei was about to speak, but Lin Yan interrupted directly.
"It would be fine if we were just buried with her. The real problem is that we didn't die, and then Lin Wu's following us was exposed. When that time comes, everyone will naturally think that Lin Wu was involved in what we did, and then Lin Wu will become a villain who is hated by everyone like us."
As Lin Yan said this word by word, Lin Mei's expression became more and more panic, and Lin Yan even made a final counter-question.
"Do you want Lin Wu to live a decadent life like us?"
"It's for her good to push her out as soon as possible before she is dragged into the abyss by us."
"The three of us have been fleeing until now, and we have been working in this broken restaurant for three years under an assumed name. Isn't it for this?"
Lin Yan's words were so heartbreaking that Lin Mei couldn't find any words to refute. Finally, she was silent for a long time, nodded, and responded in a low voice.
"Hmm"
Looking at the low-pitched Lin Mei, Lin Shu thought for a while and asked Lin Yan.
"Then, when are you going to end it?"
"Wait a little longer. It's not the best time yet. We must ensure that when it's over, Lin Wu and the three of us are completely separated. No one else will know that Lin Wu has any relationship with us." Hun Yan lowered her head slightly, looking at the direction of their residence with Lin Wu in the distance, and said softly: "Let's take advantage of this time to spend the last time with Lin Wu, as her sisters."
".That's true."
Lin Shu paused for a while, then shrugged, with a sad smile on her face, and at the same time, there was a little relief.
For those of them who should have sunk into endless darkness long ago, it was a gift from God to meet a beam of light like Lin Wu for a moment of companionship. How could they greedily desire more? (End of this chapter)
