C126 Extortion
Speaking of which, Xiao Aili was quite capable. She managed to coax Lan Luo to such an extent in the time it took to eat a meal, causing him to grin from ear to ear.
Liu Haofeng was puzzled. Ice Beauty, who was like Lan Luo, should be very rational. How could she fall into such a trap with just a few words of praise?
"Dr Liu …" When he walked to the School Hospital entrance, he just happened to see Chiang Fu walking over while carrying a lunchbox.
Liu Haofeng smiled, "Have you eaten? How is it? Has there been a change in the river? "
Chiang Fu shook his head and sighed, "Not yet, everything is normal. But I think he'll wake up tonight. "
Liu Haofeng nodded, but he didn't know what to say. Everything he said now was superfluous. Only when the river woke up would anything else have meaning.
They walked into the School Hospital together with Chiang Fu, but they did not speak any further, so the atmosphere was a bit quiet.
Liu Haofeng really didn't like this feeling. He wanted to say it several times, but he couldn't. He couldn't help but think of the last time he met Liu Li Li in City K. He wondered how her family was doing now. Since he hadn't called for so long, he probably wasn't planning on coming to Chang Xi.
Liu Haofeng suddenly remembered something. He apologised while he was taking out his phone, "I'll go pick up a call. You guys don't have to stay here. I'll pay attention to the changes in the river later."
Without waiting for Chiang Fu's reply, Liu Haofeng had already walked away. "It was an unfamiliar number, and the caller ID was Chang Xi." "Hello?"
"Big brother, it's me, Xiao Li!"
A sweet voice came over. Liu Haofeng was overjoyed. Just as he was thinking about it, he called. It really was fate!
"Xiao Li, you're at Chang Xi?"
"En, that's right, I came here by train with dad and mom. The train is really big, there are a lot of people sitting on it, it's so fun."
The innocent voice was like the melodious sound of nature; it was extremely comfortable.
"Big Brother, Daddy said, do we want to live here at the train station or go find you? "Dad, I'm hungry …"
"Good girl Xiao Li, after the call, daddy will take you to dinner. Come on, Dad said to Big Brother. "Liu Haofeng, it's me …"
Liu Ming's voice was still constrained. Towards a benefactor like Liu Haofeng, he felt gratitude and respect from the bottom of his heart. He felt a bit embarrassed that he had to trouble Liu Haofeng to come to Chang Xi this time.
Liu Haofeng knew Liu Ming's character, honest and simple, but his brain wasn't bad. He knew that it was better to come to a city to develop than the countryside, and he wouldn't just sit around and let the money go to waste.
"Mingge, are you in a hurry to get here?" Just tell them it's at the University Of Finance And Economics entrance. "
"Hit..." "Alright, let's go over first then." Liu Haofeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry when Liu Haofeng heard the pain in his voice. It was only thirty dollars from the train station, so Liu Ming was sure that it was a lot.
After hanging up, he felt much better. Since Xiao Li was so cute, it just so happened that she was going to play in the capital tomorrow. I believe Gu Lianmeng and the others will not object to having such a cute child.
After changing his clothes, he first looked around the river, but there was still no sign of awakening. This made Liu Haofeng worried again. If he didn't wake up tonight, he would never wake up again in this lifetime.
However, other than relying on himself, no one else could help. This kind of thing was entirely up to fate, it all depended on one's willpower and conviction.
After a long period of work, he still did not receive a call from Liu Ming. He ran to the School Hospital entrance and looked around, but didn't see anyone, which made Liu Haofeng very worried.
From the train station to here, it was only 20 minutes. However, an hour and a half had passed and he still hadn't seen anyone. Could something have happened?
Just as he was worrying, his phone rang. Liu Haofeng was pleasantly surprised. However, the person on the other end of the line was a hoarse male voice.
"You are a friend of Liu Ming? He wrecked my car and sent five thousand dollars over right away, or I'll call the police! "
"Duan Ling Tian?" Li Fei's eyebrows jumped and a trace of coldness flashed within her eyes. Where is it? "
"Eh, you brat, you're quite tactful!" Five thousand dollars, I want cash, otherwise... I'll give you half an hour to cross the road next spring! "
After hanging up, Liu Haofeng's eyes narrowed into a line. There's actually someone who dares to extort from me? Do you really think I'm an idiot?
If the car was damaged, how could it only be five thousand yuan? Furthermore, it was impossible for them to not be handled by the traffic police. They clearly saw that Liu Ming and the others were from outside the city, so they wanted to extort some money.
There was probably more than one person, and it should be extortion in partnership. Otherwise, Liu Ming would not admit defeat just based on his character. He was very pained by his money, if it was only one person, he wouldn't hand it over even if he risked his life.
Of course, it was also very possible that Liu Ming had already been controlled or injured. In any case, the situation was not looking good.
Thinking of this, Liu Haofeng wiped away the cold sweat on his back and quickly dialed Shadow's number: "Immediately think of a way to get a car to pick me up, even a motorcycle is fine."
Without waiting for Shadow to say more, Liu Haofeng had already hung up. He took off his white coat and ran back. After all, there weren't many doctors on duty. If they wanted to leave, they would have to greet them first.
Five minutes later, Liu Haofeng went downstairs again. As expected, Shadow had already ridden on a motorcycle and came over. He must have stolen it.
"To the Bright Spring Road, my friend is in trouble."
Upon hearing this, the shadow's doubtful eyes immediately shone with light. The excitement from the fight instantly surged.
Woo woo …
The sound of the motorcycle as it sped across the road was particularly loud and piercing. The original twenty minute drive was completed in a few minutes.
After getting out of the car, he scanned left and right, but didn't find anyone. Liu Haofeng was even more sure that he had been extorted!
He was in no hurry to look for the person. Instead, he walked into the bank, and after a while, he came out with ten thousand red notes in his hand.
As expected, just as he walked out of the bank, a young man in his mid-thirties walked in front of Liu Haofeng with a cigarette in his mouth. "Are you Liu Ming's friend?"
"I am!" Liu Haofeng nodded with certainty. He took a glance at the young man. That ruffian look really made people feel disgusted.
The young man looked down at the money in Liu Haofeng's hand and said, "Follow me!"
At the back, the shadow wanted to follow, but Liu Haofeng held him down and took a few steps away from the youth. Then he said in a low voice: "You stay here, I'm fine by myself."
The shadow looked helpless, his face full of resentment. He desperately wanted to fight now. Last night, Liu Haofeng clearly said that he would teach him martial arts, but there was no news from him the whole day and his hands were itching.
Liu Haofeng didn't dare to let him mess around. If he got too bloody later, it would leave a shadow on Xiao Li. He had already notified Lan Yun on the way, so it wouldn't be long before the police would come.
After walking through the bustling streets, they entered a quiet alley. After passing through the alley, he saw a shabby house at the back, with two young men guarding the door.
Walking to the door, the young man stopped. He waved the cigarette in his mouth and said arrogantly: "Kid, leave all your money behind. "Big brother, he's here!"
Liu Haofeng didn't say anything. He just stood at the door and watched quietly while the three young men surrounded him.
Soon, a middle-aged man in his forties walked out of the room. His hair was messy, as though a chicken's nest. With a messy beard, one could tell that he was the type of person who wandered the streets all year round.
The two young men behind him pushed Liu Ming and his wife, while Xiao Li was in the embrace of Mrs. Liu, tears still flowing from the corners of her eyes.
This scene made Liu Haofeng very angry. If it wasn't for the middle-aged man playing with a knife in his hand, he would have thrown a punch at Xiao Li and the others for fear of harming them.
"You brought the money?" The middle-aged man, Wang Song, looked at Liu Haofeng with disdain. The switchblade kept rolling in his hand, showing his domineering attitude.
Liu Haofeng did not hesitate and directly took out the 10,000 yuan he just received. "10,000 yuan, release him!"
Seeing the money, Wang Song's eyes immediately lit up. He couldn't hide his greed at all. He thought that it would be great to just extort from them a few thousand, but to think that it would actually be ten thousand!
Grabbing the money, he excitedly weighed it, then glanced at Liu Haofeng. Wang Song did not have any intentions of letting Liu Haofeng go, but instead smiled sinisterly: "Hehe, little brat, you are quite rich huh. Thirty thousand more … "Ahhh!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Haofeng suddenly appeared in front of him less than ten centimeters away from him. Before he could react, his left hand suddenly grabbed his long hair, while his right hand grabbed the switchblade and pressed it against his throat.
The corners of his mouth lifted sinisterly as he said coldly, "Release him now!"
"Put..." Not letting go, kid, if you have the guts, come at me! " Wang Song was initially a bit flustered, but he quickly reacted and shouted loudly again.
The five youths surrounded him, and Liu Ming and his wife were pushed to the side.
Liu Haofeng sneered, "Do you really think I don't dare to kill?" As he said this, his right hand suddenly increased his strength and a bloody wound appeared on Wang Song's neck.
This time, the surrounding five youths were panicking. Their faces were deathly pale and they were in a daze for a moment.
Wang Song only felt his throat suddenly turn cold and his face turned blue. His body involuntarily trembled as he incoherently shouted: "Release them, release them! Don't mess around, I only want some money. Release them, quickly release them …"
Only then did the youths react. They hurriedly let go of Liu Ming and his wife and opened up a path.
Liu Haofeng was filled with disdain. It seemed like this was the first time they had done such a thing. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so flustered.
As luck would have it, they bumped into Liu Haofeng on their first try!
"Mingge, did they take anything from you?"
"I took the money. Three thousand!" Liu Ming was, after all, a country bumpkin who had always been honest and honest. When had he ever seen such a scene? His face turned pale with fright.
There was no need to mention Mrs Liu. She bit her lower lip and pressed Xiao Li's head against her chest to prevent her from seeing it.
Nodding, Liu Haofeng stretched out his hand and searched Wang Song's body. There was indeed three thousand yuan. Other than that, there was also some loose money, about three hundred yuan.
After handing over all the money to Liu Ming, Liu Haofeng said, "Mingge, you guys go out first. There's someone waiting outside, he's in his twenties. Tell him that he's my friend and he'll take you guys back."
"This …" Liu Ming hesitated. Although he was afraid, he was also worried about Liu Haofeng.
Knowing his worry, Liu Haofeng smiled, "Don't worry, I won't kill anyone. They can't do anything to me, so let's go back first."
Hearing this, Liu Ming nodded and left with his wife.
Watching Liu Ming and his wife leave, the five young men didn't say a word, which made Liu Haofeng sneer even more. This was indeed the first time!
However, this middle-aged man was definitely not the first time. He should be a habitual offender. While Liu Haofeng was still in a daze, Wang Song suddenly grabbed Liu Haofeng's right hand and pushed it out fiercely. At the same time, he shouted, "What are you doing? Kill him!"
