Huang Weining was very emotional. She couldn't help but hug him tightly and said, "Wait for me. Before the end of this year, I will divorce Lin Jiacong. After that, I will regain my identity as the eldest daughter of the Huang family. Then … I will be yours."
Li Rui pulled her little face and kissed her forehead. He smiled and said, "You're not entangled with Cindy anymore, right?"
He actually wanted to say, "But I'm afraid that you will look down on me, a married man who betrayed his wife." But he was also afraid that she would be sensitive, so he made a joke.
Huang Weining was embarrassed and said, "We broke it off long ago …"
After leaving the room, Li Rui suddenly received a call from an unexpected person before he had even taken a few steps.
"Hey, do you still remember me?"
It was a woman with a young voice. Although she spoke in Mandarin, he could tell that she was from the south with a hint of Guangdong.
Li Ruixin's head tightened. He was inexplicably happy and said, "You're … you're … that killer … Scorpion? You're the killer Scorpion? "
A few days ago, Li Rui and Yang Xi went to Shenzhen to hunt down Huo Zhisong, but they ran into the Korean actress Lin Xiaomei and the young leader of the SL Group, Li Shanjing, who was pursuing her. Then, Li Shanjing was assassinated by an assassin. He was injected with a strong anesthetic and almost died. It was Li Rui who saved him and later helped him capture the female killer. The female killer was Scorpion, who belonged to the Seven Kills, an assassin organization in Macau.
However, Li Rui did not become enemies with Scorpion because of this. Instead, he became friends with her and even kissed her in a daze. In the end, he even left her his contact information. He did not expect that not long after that, she would call him. What a pleasant surprise.
Scorpion said leisurely, "It seems that you still remember me!"
Li Rui smiled and said, "How could I forget you? You're the first beautiful killer I've captured in my life, and also the first female killer I've kissed. I've been thinking about when you would call me every day. I also want to know your name. "
Scorpion said disdainfully, "The first? How many more female killers do you want to kiss? I hope you die in the hands of the next female assassin! "
Li Rui laughed and said, "What's your name?"
Instead of answering, Scorpion asked, "Which city are you in?"
Li Rui hesitated for a moment before saying, "Shannan Province, Qingyang City. Welcome."
Poison Scorpion said, "If you really want to welcome me, that's good. I'll hurry over to be your guest right now."
Li Rui laughed, "Really? Are you kidding me? "
Poison Scorpion said, "I'll rush over tomorrow. Help me rent a house. I'll give you the money when I get there. I can't stay in a hotel."
Li Rui stopped smiling when he heard that. He felt that she was trying to avoid trouble, so he asked, "Did something happen to you? Arrested by the police? "
Poison Scorpion said, "No, he was being hunted down by his peers. I can't say too much. I'll contact you when I arrive tomorrow. Don't save this number. I'll change it. Bye. "Then, he hung up the phone.
Li Rui was stunned. It couldn't be. Why was she being hunted down by her peers? Didn't all assassins kill for money? What was the benefit of killing their peers? Or was the competition among the assassin organizations in Macau to the point of killing each other? Anyway, the inland was always safe. Moreover, Qingyang was only a small fourth-tier city. In the eyes of the people from Hong Kong and Macao, it was probably a poor valley where birds would not even defecate. If Poisonous Scorpion came here, those killers would not be able to find her, unless they could follow her here. Thinking of this, he wanted to call Poisonous Scorpion back and remind her to be more careful when she came here. However, on second thought, he thought that with her identity, she should have taken this into consideration. He should not show off in front of an expert.
Walking out of the hotel, Li Rui walked in the direction of home. On the way, he called a real estate agent he knew before and asked him to help him rent a house in the city. One or two rooms were available. If it was in the north of the city, it would be convenient for him to communicate with Poison Scorpion.
The agent readily agreed and said that he would look for it for him. When he had time tomorrow, they would go to see the house together.
After hanging up the phone, Li Rui saw a young man riding in the puddles of water not far ahead. He was riding slowly. Suddenly, the car stopped. The front wheel seemed to be stuck in the pit. The body immediately tilted forward. The young man was caught off guard and fell heavily into the puddles of water.
Li Rui just wanted to help him up, but he saw that the young man got up quickly and turned to help the bicycle that fell in the puddles of water. The bicycle seemed to be stuck somewhere. He took a lot of effort to lift the front wheel out. But when the bicycle just stood still, his body suddenly became short. He fell down instantly and disappeared in the puddles of water.
When Li Rui saw him get up, he was already relieved. He didn't expect this to happen. By the time he reacted, it was already a second too late. He cursed in his heart and rushed over. He ran to the fallen bicycle and tried to recall the location where the young man fell. He touched it with his feet and soon felt a manhole without a manhole cover. The rainwater was swirling into the manhole, but the puddles of water on the street did not decrease. It was obvious how strong the rain was.
Li Rui really wanted to jump in and save the young man who fell into the well. But first, he did not know the depth of the well. Second, he did not know where the young man fell. Third, he was afraid that he would not be able to climb up if he was upside down. So, he quickly dismissed the idea. He stuffed his phone into his briefcase and placed the briefcase on a nearby trash can. When he came back, he carefully crouched down on the ground beside the well and reached his arm in to feel around.
He was tall and had long arms, but even when he bent down to feel around in the well, he could not touch the young man's hand or hair. He was horrified. He got up and sat beside the well. He put his legs into the well and slowly went in until his feet touched the ground. At this time, the top of his head was submerged by the puddles of water on the street. The depth of the well was about 1.7 meters.
He grabbed the edge of the well with both hands and used his feet to touch the bottom of the well. He touched everywhere but did not touch anything. He felt a chill in his heart. He guessed that the young man might have been washed into the pipe by the rainwater. This was the only possibility at the moment. If such a thing really happened, then even if the young man had ten lives, he would have died in this dark underground tunnel.
Thinking of this, he felt a little distressed. This was a precious life. At such a young age, how could he disappear from the world so quickly? He suddenly gritted his teeth and sank down. He grabbed the wall of the well and dived down. When he reached the bottom, he found the pipe on the side wall and reached in to feel around.
In fact, he did not want to give up. He hoped that although the young man had been washed into the pipe, he had not gone too deep. That way, he could still find him and save him. Although the possibility was very low, one in ten thousand, he still wanted to try. This was his last chance.
Water entered his nose and ears, and his body was constantly being washed by the rain. He endured the discomfort and stretched his arm more than a meter deep. He felt around, and suddenly, his fingers touched something floating up and down. His heart trembled, and he tried to lean over his shoulder. His arm stretched a few centimeters deeper, and he felt around again. This time, he finally touched a foot wearing a shoe.
"Ah, I found him!"
Li Ruixin was ecstatic. Without thinking about the danger, he bent down and drilled into the pipe that was only 50 or 60 centimeters high. He then split his legs and used his thighs to block the outside wall of the pipe to avoid being washed in by the rapid rainwater.
He grabbed a foot with each hand and pulled with force. He slowly pulled the young man out of the pipe. During this time, he felt that the young man still had a school bag on his back. It seemed that he had entered the water with a school bag. Perhaps it was because of the long and hard school bag that he was stuck in the pipe and did not get washed in deeper by the rainwater.
Li Rui had already reached his limit. He stomped his feet on the bottom of the well and stood up with the young man. He then used his arms to push the unconscious young man out of the well. He did not go out for the time being. He raised his head and took in a few breaths of fresh air. After recovering some strength, he crawled out using his hands and feet.
After crawling to the ground, Li Rui did not have time to rest. He took the young man's school bag and carried him to the sidewalk. He spread his legs and bent his front legs. He then placed the young man on his thighs and bent his upper body. He then patted his back and lungs to make him spit out water.
The young man did not move. His body was covered in dirty water. His mouth and nose formed a line and dripped down.
There were many passersby who saw this scene. They stopped to watch the show and expressed their opinions from time to time. It was as noisy as a swarm of flies.
Li Rui was furious. He shouted, "There are so many people watching the show. Did none of you call an ambulance? Are you guys still human? "
A girl was embarrassed by his words. She raised her hand and said, "I'll call one two zero!" She took out her phone in a hurry and made a call.
Li Rui lowered his head to look at the young man on his thighs. He saw that he was still unconscious and did not spit out water. He felt a chill in his heart and quickly laid him flat on the ground. He performed chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
An honest-looking young man saw that he was too busy and volunteered, "Big brother, let me give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. I've learned it before."
Li Rui let him do it. The two of them cooperated and tried their best to save the young man's life.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes … Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, a few minutes had passed. Li Rui was tired and sweating profusely. However, the young man did not show any signs of waking up. Li Rui reached out to check his pulse. It was fine before he did. After he did, it was as if he had fallen into an abyss. There was no pulse at all.
The onlookers who gathered around to watch the show said, "That's right.
"How is it? Is there a pulse?"
"He hasn't woken up after such a long time. I don't think he can make it."
