Chapter 228 - Remaining for Myself

Xiao Yi and the rest of the Secretary Niu started to eat scouring mutton in their respective rooms in the Night River Sea.

The hot soup came steaming out, warming the entire room. The group of people vented all the anger they had just suffered in that court onto this sumptuous meal.

As for the old man of the Song Family, Song Xu and Huang Ming, they walked through the snow and avoided the cold in a simple restaurant.

Suddenly, the music of a large blade chopping down on the devil rang out. Song Xu's expression turned serious as he picked up the bag in his hands. He was too familiar with this music. It was the phone's ringtone that hadn't changed in thirty years.

He took a look and saw that it was a call from his direct line leader, the commander in chief of the military sector.

Old man Song Xu was a bit uneasy and hesitated. However, after thinking for a while, Song Xu let out a long breath and finally pressed the answer button.

"Old Song." The old commander's voice said helplessly: "This time, you've stirred up trouble. There's a big shot in the capital who wants to get you fired for questioning. It is said that you seem to have done something wrong in the river. Now, the order had been issued. "I think it's best for you to come back as soon as possible."

"Old Commander, are you in such a hurry?" Song Xu's heart thumped as his expression darkened.

He knew that what he had done in court today was already something that could not be forgiven. However, he hadn't thought that all of this would happen so quickly.

"Yes, the big man said he wants you to come back today." The voice of the old commander did not allow for any doubt.

"Old commander, who told me to return to the capital in such a hurry? "All these years, I have not done anything, but I have worked hard. I don't think I have offended anyone in the capital." Song Xu was vaguely aware that something was amiss and immediately muttered.

"Hu." The old commander was silent for a moment, then he spoke a single word.

Immediately, Song Xu's face turned pale on the other end of the phone. He was trembling with fear. Although it was just a simple word, it contained the contents of the letter. Song Xu was a high ranking official in the capital, so he knew the contents of the word.

After hanging up, Song Xu heaved a long sigh of relief. Looking at the snowy sky outside, he shouted at the restaurant owner, "Give me two bowls of beef noodles!"

"What's wrong?" Huang Ming looked puzzledly at Song Xu, and asked with a worried expression.

"We offended the Capital Qin Family." Song Xu's face was filled with dejection as he muttered.

Immediately, Huang Ming's entire body started to tremble. His face was as pale as paper, and his stooped body was about to become a circle.

In the simple and crude dining room, there were only two guests, Song Xu and Huang Ming, at noon. The boss immediately brought two big bowls of beef noodles to the table.

Song Xu picked up a big bowl of beef noodles and quickly poured half of the chili powder on the table into the bowl. He picked up the chopsticks and stirred them. Immediately, the color of the beef noodles changed that night. The moment one took a glance at the red chili concoction, they would feel a burning sensation.

This bowl of noodles was extremely spicy in front of him.

However, Song Xu picked up the big bowl of beef noodles instead. They didn't even frown as they swallowed and gulped down the noodles. Furthermore, the hearty sound of 'whoa' came from the food.

Huang Ming, who was sitting opposite to him, watched as Song Xu recklessly ate that bowl of extremely spicy beef noodles. After a moment of hesitation, he poured the remaining half bottle of chili powder into another bowl of beef noodles.

In the end, this Huang Ming was the same as old man Song Xu. He picked up the noodles and started wolfing them down. It was as if the beef noodle soup with an excessive amount of chili powder was the most beautiful delicacy in the world.

The Lady Boss, who was sitting in front of the counter, looked at the two of them wolfing down their food. They could not help but stare blankly at him for a while before sighing, "I really do not know how long I have been starving for. In this world, there are so many pitiful people … "

Song Xu and Huang Ming immediately finished the two big bowls of beef noodles. The two of them ate the bottle of chili powder separately. This time, a few traces of red appeared on their skinny faces.

"How interesting." Song Xu touched the sweat on his forehead and praised.

"How interesting." Huang Ming laughed, and a few traces of flush finally emerged on his sickly face.

"Finished." Song Xu looked out the window at the snow dancing in the sky and sighed. "It's time to go."

"The snow is so heavy that the plane may not be able to take off. Old Master, I think we should take the train back to the capital. " Huang Ming hesitated for a moment, and then suggested.

Song Xu did not reply to Huang Ming. Instead, he laughed and said to Huang Ming: "Actually, my skills have never declined even after so many years. I have never believed that I would be slower than you. "

"Lordmaster, what do you mean?" Huang Ming was startled, then hesitated looking at the old man.

Old man Song Xu only chuckled before he suddenly took action. Swift as lightning, both of his hands reached towards Huang Ming's waist.

On Huang Ming's waist, there was a pitch black handgun. A few years ago, Song Xu who had joined the army was as nimble as ever. In an instant, under Huang Ming's dumbstruck gaze, he snatched the gun away.

With the gun in hand, Song Xu spun it nimbly in the palm of his hand. He pointed the gun at his temple. Without the slightest hesitation, he decisively pulled the trigger. A bullet rapidly shot out from the black muzzle and pierced through Song Xu's temple.

Song Xu's entire body fell onto the somewhat dirty dining table in an instant.

Fresh blood flowed, covering the table in an instant. It looked like it had just been painted red.

Huang Ming, who had been stunned, looked at the old man who was quietly lying on the dining table, Song Xu. He finally understood what the lordmaster meant when he said 'on the road'.

"No." After being stunned for a moment, Huang Ming finally reacted. Tears streamed down his face as he screamed, his heart torn and his lungs splitting.

In this afternoon filled with wind and snow, Huang Ming's screams were especially desolate.

Following which, Huang Ming looked at the motionless Old Man Song Xu. He shook his head and a trace of a mournful smile appeared on his face. Picking up the gun that fell on the table, he flipped it around agilely and said softly, "Yes, Old Master, you are indeed faster than me. All these years have passed, and your movements are still as swift as when you saved me in the trenches. "

Pausing, the tears on Huang Ming's face grew more and more. "From that moment onwards, I swear that I will follow you until my death. Now, I'm afraid I won't let you leave me behind. "

After muttering these words, Huang Ming suddenly pointed the gun in his hand at his temple. He pulled the trigger, and there was a bang. As the bullet passed through his head, his stooped body also crashed onto the dining table with a loud bang.

Blood dripped down from the table onto the floor.

The snow outside the window was instantly swept into the restaurant by the wind. The entire restaurant was filled with chilliness.

"F * ck." The Lady Boss gaped at this scene. She aggressively walked over from the counter and loudly cursed, "It's only two bowls of beef noodles, how much would it be worth?" "Now, you actually dare to play such a trick on me? You're just faking your loss, aren't you..."

However, the Lady Boss immediately remembered the two gunshots from before, and said with some doubt, "That toy gun of yours is really not bad, the gunshots are exactly the same as the ones just now. There were only two bowls of beef noodles and around ten yuan left. Was there really a need to go through all this trouble to repudiate his debt? "Look at me, I'll whip you to death with a few whips."

This Lady Boss had seen everyone before, including everything else. He walked over fearlessly and pushed Song Xu, who was still seated on the dining table, towards him. Then, he pushed Huang Ming who was sitting on the dining table again, but he still did not move.

"Damn, his acting is so similar." The Lady Boss coldly snorted, and then raised her leg to kick Song Xu and Huang Ming.

With a boom, the two of them were kicked off the table by the Lady Boss.

Fresh blood gushed out of his forehead.

At this moment, the Lady Boss suddenly realized that something was wrong. Reaching out his hand to probe their noses, he found that they were no longer breathing.

The Lady Boss panicked. She started screaming at the top of her lungs, "Someone come quickly! Something big has happened! Something big has happened!" "It's a dead man, it's a dead man …"

The Lady Boss's voice was very penetrating, causing the whole street to boil over in an instant.

At the beginning, when people heard the two gunshots, they had a feeling that something was wrong. With that, they heard the Lady Boss's shrieks and immediately ran out of the shop towards the noodle restaurant.

Snowflakes began to fall one after another, and the long street quickly became bustling with noise and excitement.

The door to the dining hall was pushed open by the passersby. Snowflakes crazily rushed in and landed on Song Xu and Huang Ming's bodies.

The snowflakes were dyed with blood and quickly melted. This noodle restaurant immediately felt cold. Every inch of space had a hint of chilliness to it.

And in the box of the Night River Sea, the Director Zhang that was eating lamb porridge. Very quickly, he received a call.

"Something has happened." After the call ended, Zhang Jianye's face was filled with seriousness, and he said, word by word, "That Song Family's old man, Song Xu, and his follower, Huang Ming, were found dead in a noodle restaurant on the north-central road of the Jianghai City. It is said that the two of them committed suicide and ended their lives with bullets. "

This short exchange of words caused the entire room to swiftly quieten down.

"Is that true?" Secretary Niu was startled, then stared straight at Zhang Jianye and asked.

"Seriously." Zhang Jianye said resolutely, "The corpse has already been moved away. We are requesting a medical examiner to examine it."
