Chapter 142 The Count’s Invitation
Internet popularity comes and goes quickly.
A few days ago, it was a much-anticipated carnival, with various homepages flooding the screen.
After Dongdong finished collecting debts and stopped sharpening his sword, there was no live broadcast of the situation, and the popularity of related topics dropped rapidly.
Plus, the world will never be short of “fun.”
A new Internet hotspot takes away everyone's attention, another carnival begins elsewhere, and the old carnival ends.
That night, Lu Li, who had been tortured by the carnival, walked out of the Red Winter Real Estate Building, exhausted both physically and mentally.
Due to many illegal operations, Hongdong Real Estate received several fixed penalties from the Bureau of Commerce, was included in the business blacklist, all its partners ran away, and it also incurred a lot of lawsuits.
Fortunately, he had swallowed up all the company's profits into his personal account early, and Red Winter Real Estate was already an empty shell with many debts.
If this company can't continue to operate, it's time to get out of its shell and find another one.
If it doesn't work out, just quit. Anyway, the savings will be enough for the rest of my life.
As for those people who criticize him on the Internet
Once this period of limelight is avoided, the Internet maggots will jump to other cesspools. Just bear with it for the next few days.
"Haha, thank you for the limited liability system, and thank you for the inviolability of private property. You guys who only know how to talk online should go away slowly. I can live a good life."
Lu Li came to the parking lot at the back door of the company.
It was late at night and the street lights seemed to be broken, so he could only walk to the newly bought sports car in the dark.
Sitting in the cab and smelling the perfume in the car, his nerves that had been tense for several days were slightly relieved.
He patted the steering wheel and muttered: "As long as I see you, my mood will get better. Tsk tsk tsk, you spent a lot of money on me, you have to pick up some girls for me, right? Why don't you go to the bar tonight? Find a chick and relax."
He started the engine and the car lights came on, illuminating the petite figure in front of the car.
"I'm going!" Lu Li trembled in fright from the sudden figure.
He frowned and looked at the visitor carefully.
I saw Dongdong chewing bubble gum, holding a Longgang baseball bat on his shoulder with one hand, and standing in front of the car shaking his legs angrily.
Lu Li was stunned, put down the window and looked out and cursed: "Why are you here again?! What are you doing? I've already paid back the money, what else do you want?!"
"Tui!" Dongdong spat out the tasteless chewed bubble gum onto the front window of the car, leaving a sticky mess on it with drool hanging on it.
Lu Li was so angry that his new car was stained that his head was about to smoke, but he didn't dare to go out. He could only shout through the window: "Wait! There are surveillance cameras nearby, and I will let you know how expensive my car windows are!" "
As soon as Lu Li finished speaking, he suddenly discovered that the surveillance cameras on the surrounding street lights were completely dark, with no red dots indicating operating status.
"Bah." A wisp of electric arc suddenly appeared from Dongdong's wrist, drawing a beautiful blue light along the Longgang Baseball Bat.
"Did you break the lights and surveillance cameras?" Lu Li lost his arrogance and his eyes became extremely frightened, "What do you want to do?!"
Dongdong waved the baseball bat in front of him, grinning crookedly, and his white teeth looked a little dazzling under the car lights.
Lu Li realized something was wrong, and with a cruel heart, he stepped on the accelerator and prepared to hit Dongdong.
"Boom!"
The car body just moved forward a little, and suddenly stopped amidst the sound of impact.
I saw a pair of feet wearing Martin boots stepping on the front of the car.
Knocking on the ground with his left foot and pedaling with his right foot, he actually stopped the sports car with the force of his legs!
"I'm stupid. I'm stupid." Lu Li was so frightened that he never thought that this little loli was an extraordinary person, so he stepped on the accelerator like crazy.
"Boom!!! Boom!!!" The sports car roared like a wild beast, the tires squeaked against the ground, and white smoke rose.
However, the power of the whole-body replacement black cat-shaped prosthetic body is extremely strong, and the power of all parts is fully activated, like an unshakable Titan. No matter how hard the sports car struggles, it cannot move forward at all.
Lu Li whined, panicked, opened the door and ran away, shouting for help as he ran.
But in this late night, no one was around, no one could respond to him.
Dongdong looked at Lu Li who was escaping, took aim with the baseball bat, and then threw it with a whoosh.
"Boom."
The baseball bat hit Lu Li's head, causing him to flutter forward and fall to the ground.
Before Lu Li could get up, his back was stepped on.
He turned around in despair and saw Dongdong grinning.
"Old guy, give me gold coins!"
The next day, Su Mo got up.
He came to the kitchen, looked at KK and Future and asked, "Huh? Don't you get up yet?"
KK shook his head: "She seemed to have gone out last night and hasn't come back yet."
Dongdong is not KK. Su Mo is not worried at all when this little girl goes out in the middle of the night.
Not to mention meeting gangsters on the road, it would be better if she didn't rob others on a whim.
After the three of them had breakfast, Dong Dong came back.
Su Mo raised his head and asked, "Dong, where have you been?"
Dongdong walked in and threw a thick and bulging handbag on the sofa: "Here, it's for you."
Su Mo opened it and quickly closed it: "I'll go! Why is there so much money? You didn't really go out to rob, did you?!"
What was in the handbag was nothing else. It was full of monthly banknotes, all of which were in denominations of 1,000. It looked like there were hundreds of thousands.
Dongdong opened a bag of potato chips and said while eating: "I didn't rob him. I just beat up Lu Li's grandson, stole his sports car and sold it to a black car dealer."
"I was in a hurry to sell it, and the price was not easy to support. I sold the car for more than two million yuan for only 800,000 yuan."
Su Mo was really amused: "As for that? The commission has been completed and we still want to mess with him."
Dongdong said confidently: "Who told him to scold me before! If I didn't give him some color, I would have thought Bendong was easy to bully."
Su Mo looked at the money in his handbag and asked, "Are you sure you have dealt with it completely?"
Dongdong lazily said: "Don't worry, the on-site surveillance has been damaged. I was masked the whole time while driving. The black car dealer I found is also a brother I have worked with several times, and he is very reliable. Even if that kid Lu Li goes to report the crime, There will be no evidence."
Su Mo couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
Don't mention it, Dongdong has been on the street since he was a child. Even at a young age, he is already an old man, doing all kinds of dirty jobs.
If you have money, don't give it away, let alone the money you stole from a rotten person like Lu Li. There is no psychological burden on you when you pick it up.
Moreover, the amount of 800,000 can be deposited directly based on the current scale of public account expenditures and will not be too eye-catching.
Su Mo handed the handbag to KK and said to Dongdong: "I will put the money in the public account, but it will be in your name. Just tell me where you need the money."
Dongdong waved his hand: "Oh, we are all family members. What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine. There's no need to be so clear-cut."
"Okay~ We, Dong Dong, are very loyal." Su Mo smiled, not being too polite to Dong Dong.
He changed the subject: "By the way, get ready tonight. We are going to An'an New District. The countess would like to treat you to dinner."
Dongdong asked doubtfully: "Ms. Earl? Are there any other titles like lord or lord these days?"
Sumer explained: "Her name is O'Diana, and she comes from a noble family. Her ancestors were hereditary earls many years ago. Although there is no such title now, out of respect, she will still be called Lady Count."
Dongdong rolled his eyes: "This person really cares about face."
Su Mo smiled and said, "You are right. The countess attaches great importance to superficial work. There are many rules in the family, so I will take you to buy a dress later."
Dongdong couldn't help complaining: "Ah? You mean the thick and bloated clothes on TV? That's too troublesome. Can't I just wear this?"
Su Mo shook his head: "Of course not. You and I both have to change clothes. Since you are visiting someone else's house, you must abide by their rules."
Dongdong let out a salty sigh: "Okay, okay, you won't die if you wear it once."
After finishing the potato chips, Su Mo took her to the Lakeside Business District, visited the high-end tailor shop Sassel One again, and bought her a tailor-made evening dress.
This is a lavender dress. The workmanship of a professional tailor makes every part of the dress fit perfectly. Coupled with the long pink hair flowing down like a waterfall of cherry blossoms, Dongdong looks like an exquisite doll.
When Dong Dong looked in the mirror while wearing clothes, even the tailor in the shop was attracted by her beauty and stopped unconsciously.
However, she soon revealed her true colors.
"Come on, this dress is too tight, my waist will be broken by it." Dongdong sat on the sofa, habitually crossing his legs and shaking them, destroying all the sense of nobility just now.
Su Mo smiled helplessly.
It’s definitely too late to teach etiquette.
Dongdong, who was born on the street, doesn't look like the kind of person who can patiently learn etiquette.
So be it.
At least the appearance is in place.
After buying the clothes, Su Mo went home and put on the formal clothes of Sasser No. 1, and brought Dongdong to the agreed place on time.
Outside the checkpoint of the tunnel leading to Anmi New District, a limousine waiting to welcome the two of them had been waiting here.
"Butler McCarter." Sumer nodded to the driver.
McCarter nodded in greeting.
After Su Mo and Dongdong went through the security check, they got into the car and passed the tunnel checkpoint.
If we say, the scenery inside and outside the rusty wall is a contrast between decay and prosperity.
Then there is a contrast between prosperity and luxury inside and outside the tunnel in Anmi New District.
In Anmi New District, there are no high-rise buildings that block the sky and the moon, no crowded traffic, and no rows of private houses crowded together with low lighting rates.
The place is full of green vegetation that has been pruned by gardeners, and lush trees are connected together. The sunset is like fiery red sand, shining through the overlapping branches and leaves, and speckling on the grass.
The houses in Anmi New District are all single-family villas or manors. Every household has its own courtyard, and the smell of green grass, flowers, and moist earth is everywhere.
Occasionally, you can see well-dressed rich people coming in and out, taking their family pet dogs for a walk. Each one is fed until its coat is shiny and its bark is loud and powerful.
Dongdong looked at the scene outside the car window, with no novelty in his eyes, only indifference: "The thinnest dog in Anmi New District is healthier and stronger than the children in the border area."
Su Mo gently put his hand on Dongdong's shoulder and stared out the window with her: "Crescent City is like this and the whole world is like this."
O'Diana's manor is in the center of An Nie New District. After the car arrived, McCarter led the two of them to the restaurant.
Pushing open the heavy wooden door, the refreshing aroma of incense hits your nostrils.
The restaurant is about 20 meters long and wide, dimly lit, and candlesticks give the room a just right sense of mystery.
The surrounding walls are hung with handwritten paintings by famous artists, and the dining table covered with dark red tablecloth is neatly placed with silver tableware, revealing the elegant taste of the owner.
O'Diana, who was wearing a fiery red evening dress, sat at the head of the dining table. The light from the candlestick fell on her face, and her fair skin was dyed with an orange halo, making her face full of mature charm even more dignified.
Su Mo saw that O'Diana was very sincere.
This time the one who appeared was no longer a substitute, but the real person.
In addition to O'Diana, there were three middle-aged men sitting as guests. Judging from their well-dressed appearance, they must all be high-status figures.
Sumer remembered that O'Diana liked others to take the initiative to say hello, so he gently put his arm around Dongdong's shoulders and bowed slightly with her: "Good evening, Madam Earl, and three gentlemen."
O'Diana's voice was very light: "Sit down, young man, and this little young man."
Su Mo sat down where the nameplate was.
As soon as he sat down, he found that Dongdong did not sit over, but stood there staring at a middle-aged man.
"Dong." Su Mo called softly, "Don't just stand there, sit next to me."
Dongdong sat on the left side of Su Mo and said nothing, still staring at the middle-aged man.
The candlelight reflected in her eyes, reflecting a faint cold light.
what happened? Su Mo was puzzled.
But it is not convenient to ask questions now.
As the master, O'Diana took the initiative to speak and said with a smile: "Let me introduce to you, this is Su Mo, a new mercenary who I think has great potential."
"The young boy next to you, why don't you introduce yourself?"
Dongdong said nothing.
Su Mo secretly poked her waist.
Dongdong came back to his senses and uttered two words coldly: "Dongdong."
Such a "brief" self-introduction, without even a greeting, inevitably made the atmosphere somewhat silent.
Su Mo was restless and thought: Sister, don't act cold now. This is not a place to be cool.
Fortunately, neither the guests nor O'Diana cared.
The middle-aged man next to O'Diana joked: "Knife-sharpening cat girl, she was a viral hit on the Internet a few days ago. She is such a unique little girl."
Dongdong didn't say anything, just pursed his lips and stared at him coldly.
The middle-aged man's joke received no response, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment: "She doesn't seem to like talking?"
Su Mo helped smooth things over and said with a smile: "My Dong Zai may be a little nervous attending a dinner party for the first time. Don't worry about it, right? Who are these gentlemen?"
O'Diana introduced: "The two next to you are Klaus and Karen, both members of the Crescent City Council."
She looked at the middle-aged man beside her and said with a smile: "This is Mr. Jacob, the director of the Rusty Wall District Public Security Bureau."
Su Mo didn't expect O'Diana to invite a big shot from the authorities this time, so he stood up and extended his hand: "Nice to meet you, I have long admired you."
When Su Mo stood up, Dongdong still didn't move.
She stared directly at Jacob, her eyes getting colder and colder, and the candlelight reflected in her pupils shone sharply and coldly.
Such a gaze made Jacob feel strange, and his tone became dissatisfied: "Why are you staring at me all the time? Is there something on my face?"
