Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Chapter 370 Shi Shouyin is no longer usable

Lu Yao had already suspected that the Tian family father and son might be behind this.

After all, the Tian family father and son were present when Yuan Shumei was beaten that day, and it was he who grabbed Tian Siwei by the neck and found out who hurt Yuan Shumei.

So, if he connected the dots—that he saved Zhao Jianguo that day and then Shi Shouyin was assassinated—he might start to suspect him.

However, Lu Yao has an extremely strong mental fortitude.

He smiled and said, "Yes, I know him. We even went up the mountain together to wipe out the enemy. But he's dead. I asked Director Mei Ping, and she said he was beaten to death."

"Didn't Mei Ping say who hit her?"

Lu Yao shook his head: "I'm not very familiar with Director Mei either. That woman looks down on the militia."

"Is that so? Hehe."

Lu Yao looked at Shi Shouyin:

"What, Director Shi, don't you believe me? Yuan Shumei told me about you hitting him, but you offered compensation, and I won't get involved in your affairs. Do you think I approached you to get revenge for Yuan Shumei?"

Shi Shouyin shook his head: "How could that be? No, don't misunderstand."

Lu Yao suddenly pulled out a Mauser pistol and pointed it at Shi Shouyin's head.

Shi Shouyin was so frightened that he knelt down with a thud.

"Don't kill me..."

Lu Yao smiled and reached out to help him up:

"I just want to show you that I can kill you anytime I want, but how could I possibly cut off my own source of income? You've helped me so much, there's no way I would kill you."

Shi Shouyin looked at Lu Yao with trepidation.

He nodded.

He also felt that Lu Yao wouldn't kill him, but the moment he pulled out the gun was too scary.

Despite his brutal nature, this kid is actually quite weak at heart.

He's usually surrounded by his own subordinates and has powerful backers, so naturally he's incredibly arrogant.

Once alone, he becomes incredibly timid when facing a formidable enemy.

At this moment, Hou Yu's car waited at the gate for a long time but Shi Shouyin did not come out, so he quickly drove in.

Shi Shouyin was slightly relieved.

Reaching out and pulling Lu Yao:

"Brother Lu, don't misunderstand me. Old Tian just said that your relationship with Yuan Shumei is unusual, and I'm afraid you want to avenge Yuan Shumei."

Lu Yao laughed and said, "Her injuries are almost healed. How could I possibly fall out with you for her sake? Don't take it to heart."

With that, he got into the car and started the jeep.

As Shi Shouyin got into the car, he gave Hou Yu a few instructions:

"Don't stray too far from my car."

Seeing his hesitation, Lu Yao finally got into his car.

So I stared at him.

Shi Shouyin felt a little uneasy: "What's wrong, Brother Lu?"

Lu Yao sighed, "Sigh, people, it's so hard to trust each other. I see you still don't believe me. From now on, let's go our separate ways. I'll take you home now!"

Shi Shouyin remained silent.

Halfway through the drive, Shi Shouyin suddenly wiped away a tear:

"Xiao Lu, I've made up my mind. I won't trust anyone else, only you! If you want to kill me, do it anytime!"

As he spoke, he tilted his head back.

They were truly waiting to be cut off.

Lu Yao tapped his throat with his hand:

"Stop messing around. Why would I kill you! What have I ever done to you?"

The two of them probed each other like this, without making any definitive statements, and drove all the way to Heishui Road.

Lu Yao came down to say goodbye, as he still needed to go to the county committee to ask Ju Wen for help in getting County Chief Hao's signature.

Only then can the equipment be retrieved with this IOU.

Watching Lu Yao leave, Shi Shouyin wiped the sweat from his face and the tears from the corners of his eyes.

He instructed Hou Yu, who was following behind:

"Bring Dong back; I need to discuss something with him."

He still couldn't figure Lu Yao out, but he had also begun to waver in his trust in Lu Yao.

But even now, he still has no intention of harming Lu Yao.

To put it bluntly, he has fallen for Lu Yao.

When I was little, I liked to secretly wear my mom's underwear and high heels, and my dad would whip me with a belt for that.

They managed to make him look normal, and dared not show any abnormality.

As a result, he developed feelings of jealousy and hatred towards pretty girls and became accustomed to using force.

The girl's painful pleas for mercy gave him satisfaction.

Until Lu Yao stabbed him, he suddenly seemed to understand everything.

If he could, he wouldn't want to be a man anymore.

But what I can't let go of is that little bit of pride.

No one understood the subtle changes in his heart except himself.

But what if the person you like is a dangerous killer?

He genuinely didn't want to break off his friendship with Lu Yao.

Lu Yao was exceptional in both appearance and physical abilities.

However, it's still best to be cautious.

We're planning to call Lin Dong back to discuss this.

Not long after, Lin Dong returned with a cold face.

"Dong-ge, where did you go?"

At this moment, Shi Shouyin felt that he couldn't live without Lin Dong, and that he was still the most reliable person.

Lin Dong ignored him, went inside, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it in one gulp.

Then I lit a cigarette.

At that moment, Shi Shouyin wanted to kick him aside again.

This kid is suspicious, fickle, and unpredictable.

Lin Dong looked at him: "Shouyin, I'm going to kill Liang Chao."

"Killed him?"

Lin Dong shook his head:

"The police are on high alert; the entire ward corridor is sealed off, and six people are standing guard there. That ward doesn't even have windows, so we can't just go in."

"What should we do then?"

"I'll go tonight. It might just turn into a killing spree! But... let's leave on the surface for now, and head back to Liaochun this afternoon. I'll turn back halfway. In any case, we can't let Liang Chao live; he knows too much about the Shi family."

Shi Shouyin excitedly reached out and hugged Lin Dong:

"Dong-ge, we're counting on you!"

"Did you need something from me?"

Lin Dong asked Shi Shouyin.

After much hesitation, Shi Shouyin said:

"I suspect that Lu Yao... knew me before. The woman I hit is recuperating at her boyfriend's house. Also, Director Tian from the winery said that Lu Yao seemed very angry at the hospital on the day Yuan Shumei was admitted."

Lin Dong sighed:

"You've finally come to your senses."

I handed Shi Shouyin a cigarette and lit it for him.

"The murderers of Zhao Guang and Huang Laowu have never been found, nor has the assassin at the state-owned cotton mill. If it were Lu Yao, it would make perfect sense. He is fully capable of doing so!"

Shi Shouyin really didn't want to imagine Lu Yao as the person who would stab him with a knife.

He looked very distressed: "So what should we do now?"

"There's nothing we can do. Lu Yao is not someone to be trifled with. Go back to Liaochun and wait for my news. I'll kill Liang Chao when I get back tonight. After the New Year, I'll find an opportunity to set a trap for Lu Yao and kill him."

Lin Dong is a ruthless man; when he does act, it's to kill.

Shi Shouyin shook his head: "No, we can't kill him. We can't lay a finger on Lu Yao until we know who the assassin is."

Lin Dong glanced at him, crushed his cigarette butt, and walked out.

Killing Lu Yao can be delayed, but killing Liang Chao is imperative.

After Lu Yao asked Ju Wen for help to get a signature at the county committee, he went straight to the Public Security Bureau.

He noticed Shi Shouyin's change, so he couldn't just sit and wait for his doom and had to take action in advance.

Let's get Mei Ping involved first and then deal with him.
