Chapter 556 Cry for Help
That morning, the three of us began to discuss how to handle Zhang Yujie's family's affairs.
According to Liu Lingling, these five families are key points of the Xuanmen Association's inauspicious formation in Kowloon. We have already broken four of them, so why haven't the people from the Xuanmen Association come out to cause trouble yet?
Earthly evil is different from fire and metal evil; once broken, it is difficult to restore.
For example, the few companies we dealt with had committed numerous misdeeds over decades, accumulating enough sins to give the Xuanmen Association an opportunity to take advantage of them.
Once the scheme is broken, where will the Xuanmen Association find someone suitable to set up such a trap?
Now only Zhang Yujie's family remains to be dealt with. Once Zhang Yujie's family is dealt with, the entire network of malevolent energy in Kowloon will be paralyzed.
As the saying goes, "pulling one hair affects the whole body," if the inauspicious node of Kowloon is broken, the entire earth-related layout of Hong Kong Island may collapse.
It must be said that Liu Lingling and the local forces behind her are very good at choosing a breakthrough point.
In this situation, if the Xuanmen Association doesn't take action, I think they're holding back a lot of trouble.
As for the Xuanmen Association not noticing, I think that's unlikely.
When we dismantled the machines in the Lu family's old factory, we made a lot of noise. Even Fourth Wife heard about it, so how could they not have heard about it?
He heard about it but remained silent, clearly plotting something.
"Ni'er, we'll be dealing with Zhang Yujie's old house in a couple of days. You and Xiao Ba keep a close eye on things, especially Xiao Ba. You're the most clever one, so make sure you keep a close watch and don't let us get ambushed!"
After finishing his analysis, Fatty Lin looked at Xiao Ba, who was sitting in his specially made little futon like a little adult, and earnestly gave his instructions.
"Chirp!"
Xiao Ba is always very reliable when it comes to serious matters. She nodded her little head seriously and patted her little chest with her little paw.
We understand what she means; she's simply saying that everything is alright with her, so we can rest assured.
"Little Hachi is so sensible!"
Fatty Lin praised him.
"Chirp!"
Little Hachi proudly raised its little head, its meaning quite simple: you don't need to tell me.
Fatty Lin tapped Little Eight's head, teasingly saying, "Oh ho, you're getting cocky now that I'm calling you fat?"
"Chirp chirp!"
Xiao Ba slapped Lin Pangzi's finger in dissatisfaction and began a half-minute-long rant.
It was Bai Yimei and her daughter who saved Fatty Lin.
For some reason, the mother and daughter didn't call ahead; they just showed up unannounced.
Xiao Ba was spraying something when the receptionist downstairs called up, saving the fat man; otherwise, Xiao Ba would have continued spraying for a while longer.
Taking advantage of the phone call, Fatty Lin went downstairs to pick up Bai Yimei and her daughter.
"Little Eight, that was great!"
After Fatty Lin came downstairs, I gave Xiao Ba a thumbs up.
"Chirp chirp!"
Xiao Ba rolled its eyes at me and barked twice in an annoyed tone.
Even without Long Nier translating, I knew what she was saying. Xiao Ba was probably saying, "You're not a good person either."
"Okay, okay, I'm not a good person!"
I surrender with both hands raised.
A minute later, Fatty Lin came up with Bai Yimei and her daughter.
"Thirteen, Ni'er!"
Upon seeing Long Nier and me, Mother Bai greeted us with a forced smile.
"Aunt!"
You can't hit a smiling face, so I greeted them too.
"Call for help!"
After exchanging greetings, Bai's mother nudged her daughter beside her.
"Thirteenth Brother, Sister Nini!"
Bai Yimei forced a smile and called out.
"Um!"
I nodded. Compared to the last time we met, the light in Bai Yimei's eyes was much weaker, like that of a puppet.
"Auntie, Meimei, please sit down!"
Fatty Lin solicitously pulled the mother and daughter to the sofa, pressed them down to sit, and then said to me, "Crazy, make some qi-boosting tea for Auntie and Meimei!"
"No need, no need!" Mother Bai quickly stood up and waved her hand.
"Why wouldn't I need it!"
Fatty Lin pressed Bai's mother down to sit, saying, "Auntie, we're not strangers, so please sit down comfortably. Besides, you and Meimei don't look too well; you need to eat something nourishing!"
I shook my head inwardly. This fatso always treats his clients, especially female clients who haven't offended him, like gods.
To put it bluntly, it's about forgetting friends for the sake of beauty.
After brewing the tea, I poured a cup for each of the mother and daughter, handed it to them, and asked, "Auntie, did you come here today because of a health problem, or is there something else?"
I had to be direct. I couldn't be less direct. Long Nier was watching right there. Lin Pangzi could act all obnoxious and it didn't matter, but I couldn't!
"I'm perfectly healthy!"
Bai's mother took the tea and nudged Bai Yimei with her foot. Bai Yimei whispered, "Thank you!"
"fine!"
I waved my hand, waiting for Bai's mother's answer.
"Auntie, as long as you're healthy, everything else is minor!" Fatty Lin said, seizing the opportunity.
"I'd rather have a health problem!"
Bai's mother deliberately sighed.
"Auntie, you can't say that! Tell us, what exactly happened? We'll do whatever we can to help you!" Fatty Lin practically patted his chest to assure her.
Actually, Fatty Lin's words were pretty much the same as last time.
"If it can be done, it will definitely be done" means "If it cannot be done, it will absolutely not be done."
Actually, I can guess somewhat why this mother and daughter came to us.
In the past two years, they fell out with Huayi Brothers and came to Hong Kong Island to work. They originally thought they could get some big resources, but in the end, apart from that movie "Kung Fu King", they only got some minor resources.
In the past six months, I've been getting worse and worse, and I've also been targeted by all sorts of malicious attacks.
They come to us mostly seeking help.
"Xiao Lin, since you've put it that way, I won't keep it from you anymore. You have a lot of connections in the Hong Kong entertainment circle, could you help my Xiao Mei?" Bai's mother looked at Fatty Lin with a little trepidation.
"Auntie, don't you have a good relationship with Big Brother Long?"
Fatty Lin didn't agree, but instead asked a question.
"Don't mention him!"
When Lin Pangzi asked her that question, Bai's mother's expression turned a little ugly.
"What's wrong with Big Brother Long?" Fatty Lin asked curiously.
I didn't say anything. We knew all too well what kind of person Brother Long was.
Whether it was his previous rhetorical question or this one, Fatty Lin did it on purpose.
"They eat people without spitting out the bones!"
Bai's mother gritted her teeth and said.
"What do you mean by that?" Fatty Lin was still pretending to be stupid.
"We basically agreed to all his requests, but what did he actually do?"
Speaking of her eldest brother, Long, Bai's mother was full of resentment. "He always agrees so readily, but once he's done with it, he turns his back on us and treats us like fools!"
"Is it really that bad?" Fatty Lin continued to play dumb.
"Um!"
Whether unaware that Lin Pangzi was acting or simply playing along, Bai's mother nodded with a tearful voice, saying, "Little Lin, you don't know, for over a year he's been finding all sorts of ways to torment my daughter and me. We've done everything we could, but he treats us like monkeys. He hasn't kept any of the promises he made to us. My daughter and I had no other choice but to come to you!"
