Chapter 69 Farewell
Sabo's body was quickly carried out, and there was no Grizzly Sabo in the world, and no one would remember his twenty-nine consecutive victories. No one came to wipe the blood that ran on the ground, because it would soon be covered with the audience's garbage and it would be difficult to see. Only the indescribable strange smell in the air was stronger.
Putting on my coat, I was once again ushered into the elegantly decorated VIP room by the handsome waiter. As soon as the door was opened, crackling applause rang out. Sweeping around the crowd, I saw that even Eagle gave me a round of applause.
"Mad Dog, what a wonderful name, and it's more fitting for your performance today. Eagle personally handed me a white towel, "Can I call you a mad dog in the future?"
"Whatever, if you like it. I shrugged and wiped the blood from my brow bone. It really doesn't matter what kind of name it is to me anymore, and I even like people to call me a mad dog a little bit in my heart.
"I especially want to know how much your appearance fee is for a boxing match?" Eagle, smiling slightly, speaking in Chinese, "I'm a little looking forward to arranging your next boxing match." β
"A million dollars!" I was not pretentious, and since I was living a life on the brink of death, I deserved to be compensated for such a risk. However, the price of a million dollars is indeed high, and the reason why I am driving such a high price is mainly to scare off Iger, and I don't like this person very much from the bottom of my heart. Maybe it's because of the phrase in his heart that boxing is the same as fighting dogs. Maybe it's because I saw in Iger today when he pulled out his revolver that he was killing me. In short, I wanted to stay away from this person, he made me uncomfortable.
"You're worth the price. Eagle nodded, replied flatly, and waved his hand, "I'll contact you, mad dog!" Without greeting anyone, Eagle walked out with a group of black suits, leaving the box for us. Whoever loses $10 million at once won't be happy, and I can understand Eagle's feelings.
"You're free from now on, mad dog. Archie was the first to walk up and pat me on the shoulder, "You're the biggest winner tonight, not only for a big fortune, but also for freedom." But do you have any plans for the future?"
I turned my gaze to Xiao Yang, of course I wanted to go back the most, to my hometown to meet the person I wanted to see the most.
Xiao Yang shook his head at me: "It's not the time yet, wait until I arrange the domestic affairs and take you back as soon as possible." β
"Then why don't you go back with me?" Popov, who had won a huge bet, was in a good mood, and handed me a whole glass full of red wine, "The girls in Yekaterinburg are much hotter than here, how about it, do you want to go and see it?"
Yekaterinburg? I had a hard time deciding. After tonight, I was free again, but am I really free? I understand that I will never be able to sit at my desk and start my day's work like I used to, and even returning to my homeland will require Xiao Yang to go back to the long paving. Because of me, it seems to be close at hand, it seems to be the end of the world.
"I suggest you go to Yekaterinburg for the time being, at least there I can contact you at any time, and your safety is assured. But I respect your choice. Xiao Yang nodded at me and smiled, "Congratulations, wood, you have surprised us all." β
Xiao Yang's smile was as warm as ever, like a spring breeze blowing through my body.
I nodded, since I am destined to call the world home, it is the same for me wherever I go, Yekaterinburg is Yekaterinburg.
"If Mr. Popov is not afraid of being disturbed, I will go to Yekaterinburg for the time being. I smiled at Popov.
"I'll make sure you have the most beautiful twist and the strongest wine!" Popov stepped forward and put his arm around my shoulders and laughed, "My friend, I'm the underground emperor of Yekaterinburg!"
The big fan-like hand pressed tightly on my shoulder, very powerful. Popov's excitement was overflowing, and he shouted to everyone present: "Everyone will come with me later, I will arrange the best girl for everyone, the best wine, and you will not get drunk tonight." β
"What about you, what's your plan?" I looked at Archie, "going back to hell?"
Archie smiled mysteriously, picked up a wine glass and touched it lightly with the glass in my hand, "Thank you, Mad Dog." You helped me win a sum of money tonight, and I will use it to carve out my new life. Archie patted me, "I'll be going to the United States, and if you get there, remember to look for me." β
Is it the United States? Is it the country where Hollywood blockbusters are full of drunken gold and beautiful women, or is it the evil capitalist country that we talk about in our primary school textbooks?
Nodding his head, he said yes. Archie and I have known each other in Hell for two years, and are my best friends in Hell for two years. The thought of parting from each other made me feel a little reluctant. But everyone has their own life, and there is no feast in the world.
"You're going to be the best fighter in the world, Mad Dog!" Archie's face flushed, "Maybe I'll be able to arrange a boxing match between you and Lu Bingtao then, I'm really looking forward to it." β
Archie's words are a bit fanciful, but it seems like a good idea to fight Taozi. Lu Bingtao and I really haven't been together for a long time. He's getting stronger and stronger, but I'm not left behind.
Popov seemed a little impatient with our chatter, and the victory he had just won seemed to make him want to go out and release the passion in his heart, constantly urging us to go fast and quickly.
I was also in a very good mood, and I didn't want to ruin everyone's interest, so I walked out the door together.
When I opened the door, I found Lao Gen waiting for me at the door. When he saw us come out, he smiled faintly at everyone and pointed at me.
The people present were all experienced people, and when they saw this scene, they immediately understood the secret of the revolver just now. But everyone didn't say anything, and they didn't ask. Only Popov gave me a thumbs up from afar.
"Congratulations, wood!" When everyone was gone, Lao Gen took out a cigarette and handed it to me, lit a cigarette for himself, and sat on the ground against the wall.
I sat down, lit a cigarette, and took a leisurely puff: "You saved me again, old root." Thank you!"
"Don't thank me, I don't know if I should save you now. Lao Gen shook his head, "I can see your performance clearly in the monitor just now. Wood, you're really becoming less and less recognizable to me. β
"Yes. "I know that Lao Gen is blaming me for killing Sabo with a ruthless hand, but under the circumstances, do I have a choice? Isn't the most primitive face of this world just that the weak eat you and the strong? It's just that in the ring, I made the cruelty of the world more real and explicit.
I sighed softly, "People are changing, I told you, old roots." "I didn't want to be what I am, but I had to.
"Your fists and legs are really sharp now, and the master will definitely be amazed at your progress when he sees it. Lao Gen smiled dryly, "I don't think I'll last more than a minute under your hands right now." β
"Hey, hey. Lao Gen stretched out his hand to flick off the ashes of his cigarette, "If the two of us meet in the ring one day, will you also kill me with one punch?"
"Lao Gen!" I looked at my brother in a daze, and a cold sweat broke out. I don't know why he said that.
"I would never do it to my brother. "I had a hard time saying it, and Lao Gen's words made me nervous. This kind of tension is even more uncomfortable than the duel with Sabo just now, and he was punched hard.
Lao Gen didn't pick me up, but just took out three bullets from the pocket of his pants: "A gift for you." β
"What do you mean?" I took the bullet and examined it carefully, but I couldn't see any heresy. When it comes to firearms, I'm a layman after all.
"This is the total number of bullets in the chamber of Eagle's gun just now. Lao Gen looked at the bullet in my hand, "How could this old fox put a bullet in his pistol, how could he just want you to die!"
"What?" I broke out in a cold sweat, and I knew that Lao Gen wouldn't lie to me.
Five magazines, three bullets, and three trigger pulls are really a mortal end.
So, if it weren't for Lao Gen's manipulation and removal of all the bullets during the inspection, I would have lost my life tonight. However, although Lao Gen saved me, he completely exposed the fact of saving me in front of Iger, and Eagle must have thought of the fact that Lao Gen and I knew each other, would he be ruthless to Lao Gen?
"Old roots, Eagleγγγγγγ He....... You....... "When I think about it, I'm a little incoherent.
"Understood?" Root patted me, "Don't worry, I'll get out of here tonight." β
"Why don't you come with me?" I took Lao Gen's hand, and I owed Lao Gen more and more.
"No, I can't. Lao Gen shook his head resolutely, "I still have my own affairs, but don't worry, I shouldn't be in danger for the time being." β
"I'm sorry, old roots. "I closed my eyes and buried my head between my legs.
Last time, I left the police force because of my old roots, and this time it was because of me, and my roots are leaving again. I'm sorry, and I feel a little heartache when I say three words.
"Don't blame yourself, brother. Lao Gen smiled, "If you really feel indebted to me, then listen to me." β
"Don't let your hands get bloody, I don't want to see my brother end up like a ruthless killing machine. β
Lao Gen's words rang like a bell, stirring in my ears.
Nodding, I said to Lao Gen seriously: "Okay, brother!"
