"You failed?"
The bookstore owner sat up straight and looked at Ji Zhixu steadily , his tone seeming to be reproachful.
Ji Zhixu took a deep breath, nodded, and whispered with some anger and disappointment: "Yes, I failed... He escaped and his whereabouts are still unknown. I have sent people to search, but there are no clues yet."
Lin Jie frowned, feeling that things were getting serious.
He has specifically searched the Internet these days to find out about Ji Bonong and his Rawl Resources Development Company.
Lin Jie had only heard of this company before. He knew that it was a large company that monopolized the resource development of the lower city area in the Nokin area , and that it also had some chain brands of various by-products.
For example, the jewelry and cosmetics brands brought about by the development of mineral resources, as well as the various food brands brought about by biological development, have a very large production chain and factories.
It was only after checking that we found out this company seems to have an inseparable relationship with the management of Nokin Central. With profound connections, it not only monopolizes the resource development in the lower urban area but also holds the sole qualification for recruiting personnel from the lower urban area in the Nokin region.
In addition, any contact with people in the lower city is strictly prohibited. Those with serious circumstances may be sentenced to life imprisonment, and their families will be expelled by the Plague Church believers.
This shows the uniqueness of Rawl Resources Development Company.
As Ji Bonong 's only daughter, Ji Zhixu is undoubtedly a noble and cold young lady.
Such a woman with great wealth and status and countless suitors was actually deceived by a scumbag , and she herself does not look like a weak person who can be bullied.
Well, we can only say that the opponent's level is too high, and it must have been premeditated, or even a gang crime, so Ji Zhixu's revenge failed and he couldn't find the opponent's whereabouts.
Yes, it is a crime.
In Lin Jie's opinion, this kind of scumbag who cheats people for money and sex is an out-and-out swindler, and his crimes are even worse than those of ordinary swindlers!
He relaxed his expression, poured a cup of tea for the other person, and pushed it over: "Don't be anxious, calm down, and tell me first, what did you do to him in the past few days?"
The other party is obviously feeling frustrated, anxious and self-doubting. At this time, it is not appropriate to use a harsh and tough attitude like last time.
The last time, there was a sense of "force", which made the other party quickly determined to take revenge.
This time, you should calm down first.
Since this "he" has escaped now, it means that Ji Zhixu's revenge action has actually been launched and has achieved great success, but he accidentally let the other party escape in the end.
However, this incompleteness caused Ji Zhixu's determination, which was originally forced upon her, to become somewhat unstable.
But there is no need to worry too much. Given the power of the other party's family, it would be possible that they couldn't even find a single person. The current situation is obviously temporary.
Now Ji Zhixu came to him again to seek psychological comfort, which seemed like he was "seeking medical help from anywhere in desperation".
But on the other hand, it's also a good thing.
This shows that the other party has developed trust in the last wave of chicken soup I gave him, so he came here to seek help.
As long as I handle this one more step, this customer will be a sure thing!
Lin Jie 's current strategy is to let the other party recall and repeat step by step his previous acts of revenge against the scumbag .
In this way, she can gradually get over the regret of the other person's escape, and instead think of her own strong side, strengthen that feeling of self-confidence, and guide her out of her depressed mood.
When Ji Zhixu saw the bookstore owner frowning, his heart suddenly tightened.
Oh no, will he be disappointed with my actions this time?
Will he choose to replace someone?
Panic quickly enveloped her heart, making her even more panicked than when she learned that Harris had escaped.
But fortunately, Lin Jie quickly regained his signature smile and poured her a cup of tea like last time.
She subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, which should be a sign of recognition and forgiveness!
Is it just necessary for her to report her actions so that she can reflect and introspect?
Ji Zhixu took the cup and looked down at the water, saying, "My fight with him actually only lasted two days. Although he had a big advantage, I also became very strong after your guidance. He was almost defeated at every step."
"Yesterday, after five hours of brutal battle, although it cost a lot, I successfully destroyed his base camp..."
"However, it was not until then that I realized that he should have known that he was no match for me, so he abandoned his partners and ran away long ago. Now it seems that I underestimated the enemy. The fact that things were going so smoothly was a warning sign of abnormality."
She raised her head in shame: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, I got carried away."
"No, it's okay. It's not your fault."
Lin Jie kept smiling, twitched his mouth secretly, and drank a sip of tea to cover it up.
Why does he always feel like...something is not right?!
However, it is said that the love field is like the business field, and the business field is like the battlefield.
Then replace it with equivalent.
The field of love is like a battlefield.
This young lady is probably used to using some business terms, so the description becomes strange... I guess.
Ha, hahahaha .
And the guy named Ryan just now called her "boss", which shows that this young lady is most likely a gangster-obsessed person with a middle school syndrome.
Children from wealthy families seem to be more likely to have this problem.
Hmm... that's easier to explain.
What she meant was that she had been dealing with that scumbag for three days, which might have been verbal, legal, and even bloody.
The scumbag has his own accomplices—maybe wingmen or those fair-weather friends. He tricked Ji Zhixu with their help back then, and now they're all in the same boat, cowed by Ji Zhixu's revenge.
But it was not until the end that Ji Zhixu realized that this cunning scumbag had actually already found an escape route for himself.
He sacrificed his rook to save his king! He threw his accomplice out to attract fire, and then ran away!
I see...
Lin Jie nodded, cleared his throat calmly and confidently, and said, "In that case, I completely understand."
Ji Zhixu was delighted, but he controlled his expression and asked cautiously, "What do you think?"
When the two talked.
Ryan stood aside, somewhat idly, and habitually looked at the bookstore with his peripheral vision.
This is his occupational disease.
He used to be an intelligence dealer, and after becoming a hunter, he specialized in providing intelligence services to the White Wolf leader, Chris.
Although he is not good at fighting, when it comes to intelligence, he is a professional who has connections and informants even in the Truth Society!
Even though he submitted to force and behaved in a very mean and servile manner.
But from an inner perspective, he has his own pride.
There was almost nothing he didn't know in Nokin City.
He even has a piece of information that is currently only circulated in a very small range - "The Faceless Man with Black Scales" Wilde is now in the city of Nogin!
