Chapter 1173: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (258)
At the Russian border.
Zuo Yue slept soundly in the car. When she opened her eyes, she sat up and looked outside. She saw that the streets of the foreign border were really different from what she had imagined.
This place looked like a village on the Russian border, but it should be a village very close to the city. The black off-road vehicle slowly drove along a long street. What surprised Zuo Yue was that when the vendors who were doing business obediently saw the car passing by, they saw the model and license plate number. Almost everyone put down the things in their hands in an instant and walked out of their stalls to pay tribute to the car.
Somehow, Zuo Yue had a feeling that Xu Chengfeng was like an emperor in this place, respected by everyone.
She turned to look at Xu Chengfeng and saw that he was also looking outside, but he had no intention of getting out of the car. There was no extra emotion in his calm gaze.
Ainte was not a chauffeur today. Sitting at the back, he noticed that Zuo Yue was looking around curiously and shaking her head like a rattle-drum. He couldn’t help but smile and cough lightly, indicating that Zuo Yue shouldn’t be so surprised.
Zuo Yue turned around and glanced at Ainte. Ainte gave her a calm look.
Zuo Yue had no choice but to continue looking outside. She realized that all the vendors on this street seemed to be Chinese. There were not many Russians among them.
However, this place was also like an isolated zone, a feeling that was divided by the Russian border. When those people looked in the direction of the car, their eyes were mostly filled with respect, smiles, admiration, gratitude, and a very excited feeling. She didn’t know how to describe it.
It was not until the car drove out of this long street that the speed of the car increased. As a result, just as they left the street, about a few hundred meters away, two gunshots suddenly sounded in the direction of the street. Zuo Yue heard it and sat upright in the car. She turned around in surprise to look at the street where there did not seem to be many people running back and forth. Then, she looked at Ainte with a normal expression.
Didn’t you hear the gunshot?” Zuo Yue asked.
Xu Chengfeng glanced at her through the rearview mirror because of Zuo Yue’s words. Ainte raised his hand to his mouth and cleared his throat. He realized that since Boss brought Zuo Yue here, he did not seem to have any intention of hiding anything from her.”Miss Zuo, this is the most chaotic place on the Russian border. Most of the people who came here illegally from China were bullied and suppressed by the Russian underworld because of drug trafficking or various illegal businesses. These people gradually formed a chaotic atmosphere here. Later on, it was because Boss brought the power behind him to clean up this place. The management here became more and more orderly and turned it into a commercial street. Otherwise, you would only see all kinds of chaotic gunfights and corpses when you passed through here.”
“Those people are now a small branch of the BOSS, but some people still have bad habits. In a place like this, it’s not strange to hear gunshots every day. It would be strange if it’s too quiet.”Ainte glanced behind him.”It looks like there was only a disagreement between a few people. There shouldn’t be a murder. Otherwise, the warning lights set up on the streets would light up and our people would know immediately.”
Did that mean that all the shops and vendors on that street were under Xu Chengfeng’s jurisdiction?
