Chapter 249: Alliance

Xia Ran was almost carried away in a hurry, his current role was only Hugo's subordinate, he had no right to decide anything on Hugo's behalf, and his generosity would not satisfy Capone, but would arouse his huge suspicions.

Sure enough, Xia Ran's slightly hesitant attitude did not cause Capone's dissatisfaction, but made him feel a little relieved.

Capone said: "Actually, I don't have any big requirements, in the final analysis, it's just some small things in the family." ”

"I'm ashamed to say that the old man seems to have never introduced himself to Mr. Xia, Capone Weta is my name. And I'm not the head of the Weta family. ”

Xia Ran was stunned when he heard this, he communicated with Capone for a long time, but he didn't expect that the old man in front of him with an extraordinary bearing was not the head of the Weta family.

Seeing Xia Ran's stunnedness, Capone smiled slightly and said, "The Vita family, as a long-established underworld family in Tsukishima, licking blood on the tip of a knife to live is nothing more than something that can be passed from father to son and son to grandson. Similar to Mr. Du's method of selecting the successor, the Weta family's successor competition is also to be contested, and the specific content of the competition cannot be determined, which is all drawn up by the head of the family himself. ”

"The current head of the family is now old, and he decided to step back a few years ago to pass on the position of head of the family to others, and now that predetermined time is getting closer and closer. Although no one knows exactly what the rules of this competition are, the content of it is nothing more than a few from the selection methods of previous editions, and it is always changing. It's just that in the current situation, if I have a strong friend who is willing to help me, then the chances of success will increase a lot. ”

Xia Ran only fully understood at this moment, it turned out that Capone had already had other plans, and what he wanted was actually very practical, he wanted to get the position of the head of the Weta family, thinking of this, Xia Ran nodded clearly.

Looking at Xia Ran's knowing demeanor, Capone smiled slightly: "Mr. Xia may have misunderstood, it is not because of my personal interests that I have said so much, you can roughly see my age, I have already seen through the power of my neckless age, but I also want to do something at the last moment of my life." "Hugo

"The current head of the family is actually my cousin, and I have lost to him in internal competitions for many years, and the two of us have started two completely different lives. Although I also live a life of fine clothes and food, my dreams in life are completely shattered, and I can only live in the shadow of others after all. And that's what I'm most reluctant to do. ”

Hearing this, Xia Ran raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you want your descendants to participate in this competition?"

Capone laughed and said: "People are always like this, what they haven't done will always be pinned on their children, hoping that their regrets can be realized by their children." It's selfish to do that, but I think it's human. ”

"I have a lot of children, but not many of them are really talented. Living in a family like ours, it is not easy to have Lingyun's ambition and cold-blooded iron fist under the influence of wine and wealth. ”

"Fortunately, God also gave me a glimmer of hope, and he gave me a good successor. ”

Xia Ran raised his eyebrows again: "You mean... Miss Bailey?"

Capone smiled: "Mr. Xia is really a smart person, I like to deal with people like you. ”

Xia Ran smiled slightly when she heard this, but she couldn't help but make a calculation in her heart. According to Capone's current rhetoric, his previous confrontation with Bailey did not seem to be an accident, but more like it was deliberately arranged.

It can be said that when he walked into the Dim Light bar, his whereabouts were completely controlled by the other party, and Capone conceived this plan in a short time, and after he figured out the purpose of Xia Ran, he met with him in person, and finally used the "Sword of the Broken Net" to exchange for the power of Hugo's side after one side negotiated the rhetoric.

This process made Xia Ran feel that he had completely become the person in that suit.

At the same time, his mind turned, and his eyes fell on the cuckoo on the opposite seat, and in an instant, he suddenly realized.

Capone is not the one who calculates, and the real initiator behind all this should be Cuckoo. While on the streets, Hugo helped him overcome his competitors and thus succeeded in his tenure. And Cuckoo told Capone about his successful experience, and thus all this.

After thoroughly figuring this out, Xia Ran smiled bitterly, and the cuckoo was silent throughout the process, as if everything had nothing to do with it, but in fact it was this woman who contributed to all this.

Xia Ran had never dealt with Cuckoo, but at this moment he began to understand the woman's methods.

In the end, Xia Ran nodded and said, "I can go back and report this matter to Hugo, I believe he will be willing to help Mr. Capone with this." ”

Capone smiled: "In this case, everything depends on Mr. Xia's kind words." ”

Xia Ran waved his hand and said, "I can't talk about good words, Mr. Capone is also a generous and bold person, we hope to have friends like you." ”

Capone said, "It's an old honor. "The atmosphere in the whole room begins to enter a honeymoon-like harmony.

Xia Ran pondered for a moment and said, "That's the end of the matter, so I don't know if Mr. Capone can let me take a look at the 'Sword of Breaking the Net' first, and then..."

Capone naturally understood what Xia Ran meant, and said with a smile: "Since we are all friends, this kind of thing is naturally a trivial matter. I can see that Mr. Xia Ran is in urgent need of the 'Sword of Breaking the Net' now, so I'll give this thing to you to use first." ”

This statement can be said to be in the middle of Xia's arms, and at this time, he cannot contact Hugo to help him fulfill his promise.

"Haha, Mr. Capone is so cool. Then I'll be disrespectful. ”

Capone waved his hand and said, "Mr. Xia is too polite. ”

After a pause, Capone said, "A 'Net-Breaking Sword' is nothing, but because of the dangers it contains, this thing is not in our hands right now, to be precise, it is not here. ”

Xia Ran said: "How do you say this?"

Capone said: "It was hidden by me in another place, a very safe place, Mr. Xia Ran, you can only go there to use it." ”

Xia Ran nodded and said, "I understand, then can Mr. Capone send someone to guide the way, I can go over now." ”

Capone nodded and said, "No problem." ”

At this moment, Du Juan suddenly spoke: "I am very pleased to see that the two of you can reach an agreed goal, and I have not been able to do anything in the whole thing, since this is the case, it is better for me to go on a trip with Mr. Xia Ran, one to have a long insight, and the other to move my muscles and bones." ”

Capone smiled when he heard this: "Haha, it seems that the old man has not taken good care of Miss Cuckoo." However, if Miss Cuckoo can go with her, she will be glad to be old, and she can save a lot of energy. ”

"Mr. Capone has taken good care of me for many days, and I can't eat so many things in vain, and doing these things can be regarded as a small relief for Mr. Capone." Then the cuckoo stood up and said to Xia Ran, "Mr. Xia, we can go." ”

...

When Xia Ran sat in the spacious extended business car, he suddenly felt a sense of unreality in front of him when he looked at the luxurious car decoration in front of him.

He didn't expect that he would be able to successfully facilitate this matter, and it would not be long before he could enter the land of freedom through the "Sword of Breaking the Net", which was already the most violent means to break through the restrictions of Skynet.

For a while, Xia Ran's heart was even more excited, and the whole person was in a state of excitement.

The cuckoo sat opposite Natsu Ran, a black dress wrapping around her plump and graceful body, looking very seductive in the dim lights of the carriage.

The cuckoo held a glass of wine in his hand and said to Xia Ran, "Mr. Xia, do you want a drink?"

Facing the cuckoo Xia Ran did not dare to be the slightest sloppy, he shook his head and said: "I still have things to do in the future, alcohol will delay things." ”

The cuckoo smiled slightly when he heard this, and he was not reluctant to Xia Ran, and said after taking a sip of wine: "As the saying goes, I met my old acquaintance in a foreign country, I thought that this sentence could not be realized in me, but I didn't expect to really meet people in the street here, and it is impossible to see that there is really nothing in this world." ”

Xia Ran also smiled lightly and said, "I was also very surprised to see Miss Cuckoo here. After a pause, Xia Ran said: "Speaking of which, I have to thank Miss Du Juan for tonight's events." ”

The cuckoo smiled and blinked, as if spring water was about to gush out of his eyes.

"What do you want to thank me?"

Xia Ran said: "Without Miss Cuckoo's help, I wouldn't have succeeded in tonight's affairs." ”

Cuckoo shook his head and said, "It's your own ability to succeed, and I didn't do anything in the middle." At best, it's just a bridging medium, and even if I don't have it as a matchmaker tonight, your goal may be achieved, after all, you still have a trump card by your side that hasn't been released. ”

Until this moment, Xiaojie did not show up, and it can be said that Xia Ran, who accompanied Xiaojie tonight, provided the most important guarantee.

"But you're bold enough to make up that bunch of things by yourself, and I dare say Hugo doesn't know what you've done tonight. ”

Xia Ran was taken aback when she heard this, and after a while, she grinned and said, "Miss Cuckoo is really good at laughing. ”

"I'm not laughing. The smile on the cuckoo's face began to retract, and the eyes that were still charming and silky were full of coldness at the moment.

"Mr. Xia, please rest assured, although the destination is Capone's place, this car and the people in it are mine, and all the words you and I say here cannot reach the ears of outsiders. ”

Even though the cuckoo made such a guarantee, Xia Ran still didn't dare to say anything, and he could only continue to remain silent to calm the brake.

Seeing Xia Ran being so stubborn, Du Juan smiled: "You must not understand why I found out this secret now." The reason is simple, Capone doesn't know Hugo, but I do. Although I haven't been with him for a long time, I think I know him very well about his personality. And the reason why you are back exposed is also because of this. ”

"Hugo was a confident man, but he was also a man who liked to doubt everything. I didn't know what was going on with him, but it wasn't until he gave that speech that I realized that after what had happened, it was really hard to trust someone else. ”

"Your current situation is indeed very delicate, I don't know the specific situation, maybe you really plan to launch an attack on Skynet, so as to curb the government, the military and the Metropolitan Police Department's encirclement and suppression of you. However, this is not a trivial matter, and if Hugo really decides to do so, then he will definitely do it himself, which means that it should not be you who appears in the bar tonight, but him. ”

The cold sweat behind the cuckoo analysis that Xia Ran listened to gradually seeped out, and the cuckoo's voice was calm and indifferent, but there was no doubt that it did not give Xia Ran the slightest chance to argue. All she did was to make Xia Ran understand how she had failed,

"You've done really well today, and you've even hidden that old fox from Capone. But don't be glad that Capone is actually a little sick and rushed to the doctor. He's right about what you're saying, but he's also hiding some things. ”

In fact, he is not as leisurely as he seems to be at all now, and in this competition, he has to fight, and he has to fight, and he has to fight, which is something he can't choose at all. ”

"In our circle life, there can only be a period of peace, and after the period of peace there will inevitably be great changes. Just like me, if I didn't fight, then I would only be a bar owner in the street, and after Mr. Du's death, I would either commit myself to others or end up on the street. The reality is so cruel that the winner can have it all, and the loser doesn't have a chance to make a comeback. ”

"The head of the Weta family is a very practical person, and after his succession to the throne, he did not suppress anyone else, especially a former contender for the heir like Capone. Therefore, Capone has lived a very good life for so many years. But what the next head of the family will be is completely unknown. Anyway, according to the analysis of the current candidate situation, no matter who comes to power, there will be a complete reshuffle, and at that time, Capone not to mention whether he could live a life of leisurely enjoyment of fine clothes and food is a big question. And Capone hasn't made much preparation for the future over the years, so he has very few chips in his hands right now. Otherwise, do you think that at a time when everyone is shunning the new humans, he is throwing an olive branch to you and the many new humans behind you to form an alliance? ”

After listening to Du Juan's explanation, Xia Ran understood the truth of the matter, and it turned out that the reality was more complicated than he imagined.

"But since you have agreed to Capone's request, you must find a way to fulfill your promise, otherwise you will really force the old fellow to be in a hurry, and he will do anything." ”
