Chapter 1033 - 1032: Unexpected Car Accident
Chu Ge's idea was to have Su Yuanzhou hypnotize Watanabe Shinji, and then let Watanabe Shinji leave this place, preferably dying outside while still under hypnosis.If this guy doesn't die, he'll always be a trouble, but he can't die here. So when Chu Ge acted, he tried not to make too much noise.
With such thoughts, Chu Ge glanced at Su Yuanzhou, only to unexpectedly find Su Yuanzhou's face had gone somewhat pale, and a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Hmm? What's going on?
Chu Ge was quite puzzled originally, and upon seeing this, he became even more puzzled. After all, in his view, since Su Yuanzhou had cultivated that technique to the third layer, dealing with Watanabe Shinji should be a piece of cake.
Yet despite the many negotiations he had just had with Watanabe Shinji, Su Yuanzhou showed no reaction, until Watanabe Shinji aimed the gun at Su Xiao, finally taking action.
What Chu Ge found increasingly hard to understand was, even when Su Yuanzhou finally acted, he didn't manage to fully control Watanabe Shinji, merely causing a brief delay in Watanabe Shinji's movement, and now even appeared weak?
Thinking about those few seconds just now, Chu Ge was genuinely frightened. If he hadn't made a decisive move, knocking Watanabe Shinji's gun out with a plate instead of betting everything on Su Yuanzhou, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Enough, these questions can wait. The pressing matter now is to deal with Watanabe Shinji.
With his mind made up, Chu Ge began to hypnotize Watanabe Shinji, gripping his neck.
Perhaps because Watanabe Shinji felt utterly doomed, this time the hypnosis went much smoother than in the afternoon. By the fourth character, Chu Ge had successfully hypnotized Watanabe Shinji.
But to be safe, Chu Ge went through each of the seven characters he knew, stacking them one by one, before releasing his right hand from Watanabe Shinji's neck.
"Brother-in-law, what should we do now? He's... not dead, is he?"
At this moment, Qin Ruoying looked at the gun on the ground, then at the back sliding down the wall, finally collapsing on the floor, Watanabe Shinji's life or death unknown. She felt both terrified and excited, asking with some inner conflict.
"Don't worry, he's still alive. There are plenty in Kamakura who want to catch him. I just need to get him out on the street. You guys wait for me inside, I'll be right back."
As Chu Ge spoke, he picked up a napkin from the table to wrap the gun Watanabe Shinji had brought, and like supporting a drunken friend, he discreetly took Watanabe Shinji out of the room. First, he went to the bathroom to put the gun back in Watanabe Shinji's pocket, then issued a command.
A minute later, on this street about a hundred meters from the restaurant, a sudden "accidental" car accident occurred, a "drunkard" was hit by a speeding truck and flew over ten meters, dying on the spot.
Standing by the roadside, Chu Ge confirmed Watanabe Shinji was thoroughly dead, smirked, and returned to the restaurant.
The meal ended up like this, no one had any interest in continuing. When Chu Ge returned, Qin Ruojing had already settled the bill. As they left the restaurant, they saw a crowd gathered on the street not far away—the scene of "drunkard" Watanabe Shinji's "accidental" car crash.
"Brother-in-law... could that be..." From afar, looking at the truck stopped in the middle of the road, Qin Ruoying asked, a bit stunned.
"Too much evil leads to self-destruction, or maybe he thought dying like this was better than ending up in the hands of the police." Chu Ge nodded and patted Qin Ruoying's shoulder, "Forget it, don't look, let's go."
Chu Ge and the Qin sisters returned to the hotel they checked into yesterday, while Su Yuanzhou returned to his small hotel with his nephew and niece. Although Chu Ge and Su Yuanzhou each had their own uncertainties, it was clearly not the right time for them to communicate.
On the way back to the hotel, Chu Ge and the Qin sisters didn't speak much.
Although Watanabe Shinji deserved his fate, to the Qin sisters he was still a human life, someone who had been beside them just now, suddenly gone. Even if they didn't feel any sympathy for him, they would at least feel somewhat heavyhearted.
As for Chu Ge, he felt nothing about Watanabe Shinji's death. He'd seen many deaths, killed countless people himself. He was merely pondering things he couldn't understand.
It wasn't until the three took the elevator back to their floor that Qin Ruojing showed a somewhat forced smile and gently took Chu Ge's hand, "Tonight, sleep in our room."
Hearing Qin Ruojing say this, both Chu Ge and Qin Ruoying were slightly stunned because she had said "our room."
"Well..."
Chu Ge hesitated, glancing at Qin Ruoying, seeing her quickly look away but with a mix of three parts shy and seven parts expectant emotions showing, he finally smiled and nodded, using his other hand to hold Qin Ruoying's hand.
That night, the three of them stayed up very late.
The next day, Chu Ge was the first to wake up. He quietly went to the sofa, picked up his phone, and pulled up the photo of that cultivation technique, concentrating on it again.
Before long, Qin Ruojing's voice sounded in his ear, pulling him back from that mysterious feeling. He turned his head to look at Qin Ruojing.
"Have you been up for long?"
"Not really. We slept so late yesterday, you should sleep a bit more."
Qin Ruojing shook her head, "No, I can't sleep well without you beside me."
Chu Ge chuckled, "But I'm right here, how am I not beside you? Get some more sleep. When we're at Lidu, you're always busy with work. Now that we're out playing, you should just relax, be lazy, and give yourself a good break."
"And you're talking about me. We both slept so late yesterday, and yet you woke up even earlier than I did today!"
Chu Ge scratched his head, chuckling, "That's different. Your hubby here is really fit! Even if I only sleep four hours a night, I'm still good as new, no back pain at all, and I can climb fifty floors in one go easily."
"Says the one who's getting puffed up! You're just being cheeky. A good body is nurtured, you know. No matter how good your physique, if you keep living irregularly and without moderation, sooner or later... never mind, I don't need to say it, you understand, right?"
Seeing Qin Ruojing's hesitant expression, Chu Ge chuckled and shook his head, "How is my lifestyle irregular? What am I doing without moderation? What's going to happen sooner or later?"
"I can't be bothered to explain," Qin Ruojing rolled her eyes at Chu Ge and shifted her gaze to the phone in his hand, changing the subject, "What are you so focused on? Not another so-called master ruining an artwork, is it?"
Chu Ge initially wanted to say it was nothing, but then he had a sudden thought. He stood up from the sofa, walked to the bed, and handed the phone to Qin Ruojing.
"This time it's not some ruined masterwork, just a few abstract paintings. Take a look."
Chu Ge remembered Su Yuanzhou telling him that, theoretically, only members of the Su Family could cultivate using this technique. Even if others focused intently, they wouldn't be able to get anything out of it.
Because of this, both Su Yuanzhou and Chu Ge had their doubts if there was some link between him and the Su Family.
Since Qin Ruojing was curious, Chu Ge thought it would be a good opportunity to test if she would have any reaction to the technique, although he figured the chances were slim, it didn't hurt to try.
After all, if Qin Ruojing felt nothing, as long as he kept quiet, she'd just think it's a bunch of random doodles and wouldn't overthink it.
"Abstract paintings? You have artistic sensibilities now? You're so serious about abstract paintings? I would sooner believe you watching some little movie or other."
Although Chu Ge held the phone out to Qin Ruojing, she didn't take it, and instead gave him a peculiar look with a certain disdain as she spoke.
"The way you say that, with you and your sister both here, why would I need to watch any little movies? Besides, why can't I have a bit of artistic sensibility?"
"Remember Mu Xiaoting? When we were being chased, I made her a skirt out of leaves. You should've seen the look on her face; she looked like a convict being freed after years and seeing a beautiful naked woman for the first time, her eyes were practically sparkling."
Chu Ge rolled his eyes at Qin Ruojing, responding with a huff as there was nothing he couldn't say about this matter; firstly, he felt he had nothing to hide regarding Mu Xiaoting, and secondly, Qin Ruojing already knew about his rescue mission with her.
Qin Ruojing pouted, clearly unconvinced.
"Come on, she's the daughter of a provincial party committee secretary, an art student back from studying in Paris, France. She's seen it all, really, without slighting you— one strand of her hair might have more artistic sensibility than your entire being. Just a skirt made of leaves practically made her eyes pop out? You really believe what you're saying?"
Hearing this, Chu Ge sighed heavily, nodding without hesitation, "Yes, of course, I believe myself. I'm telling the truth, aren't I? Why wouldn't I believe it?"
Qin Ruojing raised her hand to massage her forehead, making a very exasperated gesture before looking at Chu Ge and suddenly bursting into laughter.
"You… when you act silly, you're kind of adorable."
"Hey, Qin Ruojing, you said you weren't slighting me. What would it take for you to actually be slighting me? How can you talk about your husband like this?"
