CHAPTER XXI
Inside a dark room.
The strong smell of cigars fills the room.
An emaciated figure sat in the middle of the room.
And this room full of cigars is made by this man.
The man slowly stood up and took a deep drag on the cigar in his mouth.
The sparks on the cigar suddenly became very bright in the darkness.
Through the faint light of the cigar fire, a face with sunken eyes, shaggy hair, and a stubble can be seen.
This person is none other than that!
Exactly Slingford!
That's right!
Even if it has changed so much, you can still see a little bit of what Slingford looked like before!
Just, what's going on?
In just a few days or so, Slingford has changed so much!
The flame of the cigar grew weaker and weaker, and finally Slingford gave him a hard last smack and extinguished the cigar.
In an instant, the extinguished fire plunged the room into deeper darkness.
....... in the dark
"It's a blessing that can't be hidden!" Slingford said as he heard the sound of the door being opened, and footsteps moving away.
___________________________
on the streets.
Because it was already close to midnight, and Slingford's base was in a relatively remote part of the city.
So there are hardly any pedestrians on the road.
Along the way, Slingford kept his head down, and his heart was heavy.
These days, he has asked all the people in his gang to go back.
Even his driver was on vacation.
Walk on the road.
After walking a hundred meters, Slingford was short of breath, and cold sweat began to break out on his head, and then he was responsible for the surrounding walls and coughed incessantly, giving people the feeling of a dying old man.
It's hard to imagine that this is the pot-bellied Slingford before.
No one knows what he went through during this time.
His family, wife, and children were all close to him, and he had been arranged to a secret place very early.
And he has already explained the follow-up.
On the dim road, the street lights flickered on and off.
Slingford seemed to be tired, so he simply leaned against the wall.
There are no more people on this set of roads.
At this time in the past, there was definitely no shortage of people here.
Of course, it could also be because it was too late.
Slingford paused silently against the wall.
Suddenly.
The sound of text messages came from his pocket.
I took out my phone, unlocked it, and saw the content of the text message sent.
Subsequently.
The eyes, which were originally a little hollow, shone up for the first time.
Putting his phone away, Slingford pulled out a small box from his jacket pocket.
This small box is made of a very ordinary material.
But Slingford had placed the box in a very important part, apparently in a way that made people feel strange.
After that, Slingford opened the box.
Inside the box, there was a capsule, which was very ordinary, the size of an adult's fingernail.
When he saw the capsule, there was a trace of fear and indescribable excitement in Slingford's eyes.
After thinking about it for a long time.
Slingford made up his mind and threw his head back into the capsule.
After swallowing, Slingford began to scratch his body along the wall little by little, as if he had not slept for a long time, until he sat on the ground.
His eyes slowly closed, and the whole person showed an expression of great enjoyment.
Minutes and seconds passed.
The night is thicker on this street.
All of a sudden, the street lights on the side of the street dimmed.
It's just a few seconds, and it looks like the voltage is unstable.
When the street lights came back on, there was a sudden figure on the street.
The man was wearing a hooded T-shirt, and his entire face was hidden under the hood.
It's a man there.
The man's face under the hoodie is even more blurred with the cooperation of the street lamp.
The man walked slowly, his steps were very light, and his body was swaying from side to side, as if he was listening to some kind of music.
As he passed by Slingford, he paused for a moment, then glanced at Slingford leaning against the wall, as if wondering why there were still people here at such a late hour.
The man stopped for a minute, and after a minute, the man turned and left.
Just as the man turned around and was about to leave, Slingford, who had been sitting on the ground to close the closing, slowly opened his eyes.
"What time is it, little brother?" asked Slingford.
The voice was a little shrivelled, as if he was talking with his throat pinched.
The man who was about to leave, paused, turned his head to look at Slingford again, hesitated for a while, and then said, "It's three o'clock in the morning, sir." ”
"Is it three o'clock in the morning!?" Slingford felt a little late when he heard this, so he struggled to get up and prepare to go home.
The man had been watching with great vigilance as Slingford got up, and then slowly left in the opposite direction of himself, before he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he is said to be a man, but in this time period, it is also country M, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not meet an addict and then .......
Watching Slingford walk, as if he was dragging thousands of pounds of things, the man felt very strange, but after all, it was not his own business, so he naturally wouldn't ask more.
After making sure that Slingford didn't plan to do anything to him, the man was ready to leave again.
Just as the man was about to leave, the street lights on the side of the road suddenly went out again.
It goes out all at once, and the man's eyes can't adapt well.
I felt like my surroundings were plunged into darkness for a moment.
The man hurriedly took out his mobile phone from his body, intending to use it to take a picture of his surroundings.
But as soon as the mobile phone escaped, the man was so frightened that he took several steps back!
The phone fell directly to the ground.
The reason why he was frightened was mainly because Slingford, who was a few meters away from him, didn't know when he appeared in front of the man!
Just now, the faint fluorescence of the mobile phone shone directly on Slingfford's cheek, and in combination with Slingfford's physical state at this time, it was like a demon who had just come out of hell!
After confirming that it was Slingford, the man swallowed his saliva, tried to calm his heart, and said, "You ..... you have anything else!?"
The man felt that the person in front of him really had too many problems, especially now that there was a strange light in the other party's eyes looking at him.
It's like looking at a piece of pork!
"Little brother, don't worry, I'm not a bad person, I just want to borrow something from you. Slingford said with a smile.
It's just that this smile, with his appearance, looks even more hideous and terrifying!
The man tried his best to calm his heart, and his brain was running rapidly, "Brother....What do you want to borrow!?"
"Actually, it's like this, I'll come back soon with an enemy, and you've seen the situation now, it's not good, and only you can help me. Slingford said.
The man swallowed and said, "You....you said you could borrow it, I will definitely borrow it." ”
After hearing this, the corners of Slingford's mouth rose slightly, and he said lightly, "Things are very simple......"
"It's yours...... Blood!"
