"It seems that our plan is perfect, Ivanov has already entered the trap. ”

In the black Buick outside the Alexander Mansion, Stuart and Vladimir were observing the situation in the banquet hall through a pinhole camera mounted on Song Yuan's collar.

Ivanov approached Song Yuan, but didn't say anything, just let Song Yuan have fun. Preston's voice came through the headphones.

Did he want to find Song Yuan directly and tell him, "Hey, brother, that guy in Stuart is not reliable at all, why don't you Long Yuan cooperate with our East Slav Branch, and we will have half of the things in the Kola Deep Well." "?" Stuart shook his glass, "Although Ivanov doesn't have many brains, he is also the head of the East Slav branch, so don't take the enemy too lightly." ”

"What did you find over there?" asked Vladimir.

"The people who came to the party were all from the East Slav branch, and he probably wanted to give you a dismount. Preston hid in a corner and swept his gaze over the ballroom, each of whom had a bronze ring carved with a sleeping lion, the emblem of the East Slavic Branch.

It's just that these rings have some strange specifications, and not everyone fits their hands.

"His usual routine, wolf pack tactics. Stuart said lightly, "At the same time, show my strength to our Longyuan friends." ”

"Won't Ivanov investigate Song Yuan's identity?" Vladimir frowned.

He must have investigated, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to find Song Yuan. Stuart took a sip, "I contacted Lu Ye and asked Song Yuan to participate in this drinking party as Long Yuan, and then used some means to clear all of Song Yuan's records in the hidden fog. ”

"Then we ...... now"

"Preston, you go find a place to observe, and the rest is to wait and see. With a faint smile on his face, Stuart played with the wine glass in his hand, "I'm really curious about who that guy standing behind you is." ”

In the banquet hall, Song Yuan "elegantly" used the knife and fork in his hand to deal with a steak, to be honest, he really couldn't figure out why foreigners would like bloodshot steaks, and they were not afraid of infectious diseases?

"You're holding a lettuce fork in your hand right now, and the fork on the outside is for steak. ”

Inas's voice came from behind Song Yuan, Song Yuan turned his head, but it was a strange woman wearing a black business suit, with brown curly hair behind her, and the hip-wrapping skirt on her lower body was slightly bloated.

"Shhhh ”

"When did your ass get so big?" Song Yuan's eyes widened.

Inas slapped Song Yuan on the back of the head, "I'm here to save you, and you're treating your life-saver like this?"

"What do you mean?"

"Do you see the rings on their hands?" Inas came to Song Yuan and sat down, and brought the steak in front of Song Yuan to herself without care, "That's the symbol of the Hidden Mist East Slav Branch, in other words, all the guests in this banquet hall are from the East Slav Branch, and the host who held this drinking party is named Ivanov, who is the head of the Hidden Mist East Slav Branch." ”

"What's the ...... then" Song Yuan didn't care, "Everyone is a person who hides the fog, is cannibalism still allowed in the organization?"

"Reminder, your current identity is a member of the Longyuan Organization. ”

"What's wrong with Long Yuan...... Didn't you say that Long Yuan and we had a good relationship?"

"It's true that Long Yuan and Hidden Mist are allies, but in the face of huge interests, the relationship between allies is the most unreliable. Inas bowed her head and whispered, "Ivanov doesn't want anyone outside the East Slav branch to interfere in the affairs of the Kola deep well, so this drinking party is simply a disadvantage for you and Stuart, so that you can retreat." ”

"Why can't I understand what you're saying?" Song Yuan thought for a moment and spoke.

"You don't need to understand, you just need to know that your current situation is similar to when Xiang Yu set up a Hongmen banquet to invite Liu Bang to the banquet, and if you are not careful, your life will be difficult to protect......"

"Then why am I staying here?" Song Yuan quickly stood up, and wanted to turn around and escape.

"Calm down!" Inas hurriedly grabbed Song Yuan's wrist, "If you leave like this now, won't you make everyone laugh?"

"Life is more important than face...... "Inas is obviously a girl, but her strength is so great that she is dying, Song Yuan can't break free, so she has to sit down again.

"What are you afraid of! You are now the representative of Long Yuan, and you can't show your cowardice in front of others!"

"Liu Bang still has a fan who blocks the knife for himself, and I don't even have a weapon on me to defend myself, what can I do to fight with Xiang Yu?"

Song Yuan had already made up his mind, but just as he wanted to stand up, the lights in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed.

The light of two magnesium lamps overlapped in the center of the ballroom, and in the middle of the light stood Ivanov.

"Everyone is welcome to my reception. Ivanov cleared his throat and spoke.

"Today, we regret that Mr. Stuart was not able to make it to the scene, but we invited Mr. Song Yuan from Longyuan. ”

There was warm applause at the scene, everyone's eyes looked at Song Yuan, and Ivanov had a smile on his face, which could not be said to be welcome or ridiculed.

Under the pressure of everyone's gaze, Song Yuan stood up awkwardly and waved to the crowd around him, revealing a stiff smile.

"Why didn't Stuart come over?" Song Yuan asked in a low voice.

"It is estimated that there is a temporary delay. Inas shrugged her shoulders and said indifferently.

"Don't use such a nonchalant tone, can you see how many people there are here, there is at least someone here to attract firepower," Song Yuan turned his head to look around, "And Preston doesn't know where it went, he must have known in advance and ran away, leaving me alone, what is this...... Do you want to go alone?"

"Don't worry, I'm by your side. Inas gave Song Yuan a reassuring look, "The soldiers are coming to block, the water is coming to cover the earth, you are Long Yuan's person, he will not kill you at the drinking party." ”

"Friends, let's raise a glass and welcome our friends from afar!" said Ivanov, holding his glass.

Everyone present raised their wine glasses, while Song Yuan picked up the juice in front of him.

The ballroom fell silent for a moment.

"Stupid, others toast you because they look up to you, what kind of juice do you think when you lift it?" Inas hurriedly replaced the juice in Song Yuan's hand with liquor.

"It seems that our friends from afar are not very familiar with the customs here, in the East Slavic principality, only weak sissies drink bland and tasteless juice, and real men should drink the most scorching liquor!" Ivanov tilted his head, his glass empty.

A slightly mocking laugh rang out in the venue, and everyone drank it all in one go, then looked at Song Yuan.

Song Yuan frowned, this was the first time he had drunk liquor, and he could smell the pungent smell of alcohol from afar.

Damn, you have to die early or late, it is better to die early and live early, Song Yuan raised his glass violently, held his breath and drank the entire glass of liquor. And then...... Then Song Yuan coughed violently, and Inas hurriedly patted him on the back and helped him sit back in his seat.

The liquor slid through Song Yuan's esophagus, stinging his throat like magma, and he felt that now he only needed a match to breathe flames from his mouth like a magic.

Song Yuan drank several glasses of juice before he came to his senses.

Ivanov came to Song Yuan with a wine glass, "Mr. Song, after the reception, I want to invite you to my place for a long talk all night, I wonder if Mr. Song is willing to appreciate his face?"

"Yes. Song Yuan nodded, this matter was supposed to be part of the task, he didn't have time to mention it when Ivanov came over last time, and was thinking about how to speak, but he didn't expect Ivanov to take the initiative to send it to the door.

"Have a nice night. Ivanov raised his glass and slowly left the banquet hall.

"Have we passed the test?" Watching Ivanov leave the banquet hall, Song Yuan turned his head to look at Inas.

"I don't know, I'm not Ivanov. Inas rolled her eyes, "I thought Ivanov was going to make things difficult for you at the party!"

As soon as Inas's words fell, a sharp whistling sound came from the dome, no one could see what was happening, Inas hurriedly reached out and grabbed Song Yuan's tie, and the next second, the seat behind Song Yuan was pierced by bullets.

Song Yuan raised his head and looked at the pierced seat behind him, the bullet that had been fired at the location of his heart.

If it weren't for Inas's timely response, Song Yuan would be a dead man by now.

The glass of the dome shattered, the glass ballast was all over the ground, and one rope after another went down, and more than a dozen masked people with loaded guns and ammunition fell to the ground in an extremely standard rope descending posture, shooting wildly in all directions.

Inas kicked the leg of the table, and the table fell in front of them as cover.

The ceramic plates were knocked away, the venue was in shambles, screams were everywhere, and some people were shot and fell in a pool of blood, looking at the sky unwillingly.

"These people are not from the East Slav branch at all!" Inas instantly figured out the situation, "Ivanov wants your life!"

Under the cover of the dining table, Inas pulled Song Yuan to hide behind the pillar and slipped out of the back door.

"Would you like me to go and help?" Preston stood on the roof of the Alexandria Mansion, which had a great view of the ballroom.

Preston spotted the masked men as they lay on the roof of the ballroom, but Stuart's orders remained untouched.

"Somebody will go and save them, and you'll see if you can catch them alive. Stuart's voice came through the headphones.

"It seems that you guessed correctly, someone is giving Ivanov advice behind his back, and it is impossible for his brain to think of such a clever solution," Vladimir said while sitting in the car, "as long as he kills Long Yuan's people and creates the illusion that he is also seriously damaged, so that he can provoke the conflict between Long Yuan and Hidden Mist without getting rid of his own suspicion, he can benefit from it." ”

Vladimir paused, "But who is the person behind him?"

Stuart looked out the window, and a man was standing around the corner of the façade of the Alexander Mansion and beckoned to him.

"I think I know who it is......" Stuatra opened the door and got out of the car.
