Captain Hao smiled. “Sister Wen arranged for the location to be at the iron factory on South Street. The iron factory is right next to a river. Usually, there will be people fishing for sand and fish on the river. The workboat will always be parked on the river or the shore. Our people hid on the sand boat. We agreed to throw Brother Ding into the river, and then we took the opportunity to get Brother Ding away. Now, there should be people trying to salvage Brother Ding’s body by the river.”

Jiang Yao nodded. That arrangement was great. “Two days later, we’ll get a fake body to go downstream.”

“We’ll get a death row criminal who’s about the same size as Brother Ding. We’ll put it in the water for two days. By then, no one will notice.” Captain Hao pointed at Ding Xiaomei. “Let Xiaomei claim the body as her family member and then quickly cremate it. There won’t be any problems after that.”

Even Brother Ding’s clothes were put on the condemned man, including all of his jewelry.

Jiang Yao, Lu Xingzhi, and Ding Xiaomei could not stay there for long. Ding Xiaomei needed to return to the Ding residence, while Jiang Yao needed to return to the hotel. As for Lu Xingzhi, he needed to return to the riverside to help find Brother Ding’s body.

That night, Jiang Yao spent the night alone in the hotel. The following day, Ah Zhu went to her.

“Did Changshu come to look for you last night?” Ah Zhu asked casually after entering the door.

“Brother Changshu came for a while and left very soon. He said that he was afraid that I would be worried, so he stole some time to come and see me. Then, he went back to work,” Jiang Yao replied. The fact that Lu Xingzhi had come to the hotel yesterday was something that could be investigated. However, she had disguised herself when she left, so no one knew that she had left.

Ah Zhu teased her. “Changshu really can’t let go of you for even a second. Don’t worry. The situation in Shu City has changed, so your Brother Changshu and I will be quite busy these few days. You should stay in the hotel and don’t go out. After these few days, your Brother Changshu can accompany you again.”

Gu Changshu was busier than Ah Zhu, so he just stopped by to see Gu Junhui. After talking for two or three minutes, he left in a hurry.

Ah Zhu was busy, indeed.

Ah Zhu appeared to be Brother Ding’s man, and the man was dead, killed by Sister Wen. Ah Zhu had found an excuse to deal with Sister Wen.

Ah Zhu gathered all of Brother Ding’s men. Then, he used the excuse of avenging Brother Ding to fight for Sister Wen’s territory and Brother Ding’s properties. He went against Sister Wen everywhere. He would create some trouble for Sister Wen from time to time, which made Sister Wen extremely anxious. Then, he would take the opportunity to continue taking those properties.

Sister Wen did not know that Ah Zhu was Brother Jing’s man. When Sister Wen asked Brother Jing for men to deal with Ah Zhu, Brother Jing did not agree to her request. He said that Sister Wen was useless and that he would not continue helping her. He even asked Sister Wen to hand over 50 percent of her own properties, as promised in the beginning.

In the past few days, fighting and killing happened everywhere in Shu City. Even the authorities did not dare to interfere. Many shops decided to close their doors during that period. There were less than half of the pedestrians on the streets, and the street stalls were nowhere to be seen.

For those few days, Lu Xingzhi did not go to the hotel again. Instead, Ah Zhu went there and brought Jiang Yao a lot of fruits. He specifically told her not to go out, and after sitting for more than two minutes, he left again.

It was not until the middle of the night of the fourth day that Lu Xingzhi finally found the time to go to the hotel.
