Chapter 20 Running around empty
Gao Bai, whose face was as gray as the earth, was about to leave with his men in embarrassment, when suddenly a leisurely voice sounded.
"Wait. ”
Everyone present was stunned, and to everyone's surprise, the person who said this was Hugo!
When it was discovered that it was Hugo who spoke, a different look appeared on everyone's face.
Gao Bai's face changed from dark purple to pig liver color, and his eyes glared at Hugo fiercely, he had to make concessions under the authority of the old gull, but it was not just a person who could suppress and insult him.
However, the old gull sighed helplessly, even if he controlled Gao Bai's unreasonable behavior as quickly as possible, but he still didn't know Hugo's character enough, how could Hugo endure that kind of degrading thing.
"Boy, what do you want to do?" Gao Bai said in a cold voice, eager to turn his words into a sharp blade and kill Hugo's body.
Hugo smiled slightly, with a harmless look of humans and animals.
"It's nothing, it's just a courtesy. ”
"Courtesy?" Gao Bai blinked, not understanding the meaning.
At this moment, everyone intuitively flickered in front of them, and then two crisp voices sounded on Gao Bai's cheeks.
When people reacted, they found that Hugo was still standing firmly in place, and the smile on his face did not change at all, as if he had not made any moves.
However, the burning pain from his cheeks told him what had just happened.
"I'm fucking killing you!" Gobber's eyes were about to burst into two bursts of rage, and he reached out to pull out the gun at his waist to kill Hugo.
This time Hugo didn't make a move, but Akita on the side appeared in front of Gao Bai like lightning, and a hand knife slashed down at Gao Bai's wrist, Gao Bai snorted and his palm fell softly as if it was out of touch with his body, and at the same time, Akita's two fingers had been pressed against Gao Bai's neck carotid artery, and the cold chill from his fingertips made Gao Bai mistake it for some kind of sharp blade for a moment.
"If you dare to move, you will die. Akita's gloomy voice rang out in a deep voice, and because of the unique position in which he was standing, Gao Bai's men ended with it, and the muzzle of the gun could not be pointed at Akita's vital position.
Hugo looked at Gao Bai coldly and said, "Is there anything that Mr. Gao is dissatisfied with my return gift?"
Gao Bai was silent for a long time, and finally only coldly spit out three words: "Good, good, good." ”
Hugo smiled: "So you are very satisfied." ”
Gao Bai's face twitched and said, "Tonight, I admit it." ”
Hugo raised his eyebrows and said, "If you simply think that it is only tonight, then it will only be planted in the future." ”
"Taught. Gao Bai squeezed out three words dryly from between his teeth, and from the perspective of the detective, he was afraid that he had the heart to die.
"Put down the gun. Gao Bai suddenly said to his subordinates behind him, and his subordinates couldn't help but look at each other, and then put down their weapons and put them in their arms.
The tension that had just been on the verge began to subside, and the old gull signaled to his own people to lay down their weapons, and everyone began to turn their eyes to Akita.
Akita stared at Takashira for a long time, but never withdrew his finger against his artery.
Hugo coughed helplessly, "That's enough, Abbas." This is the temporary name that Lao Ou gave to Akita before, but he never thought about it but let Hugo take the lead in using it.
Akita reacted quickly, snorted coldly and then withdrew his hand.
Gao Bai finally swept his gaze over Hugo and Akita's faces, as if to keep their looks firmly in mind, and finally left angrily.
After Gao Bai walked away, the old gull came to Hugo and said, "You were too impulsive just now. ”
Hugo said: "Compared to usual, I have endured a lot. ”
Lao Ou said: "I know you have a prejudice against Liujie, but this should not be a reason for you to be angry. ”
Hugo said: "Whether it can be counted as a reason is up to me." ”
Lao Ou shook his head and said, "This is not a metropolitan area with legal management constraints, but a flowing street where various forces are intertwined. With that, he glanced around and gestured to Hugo, who noticed that there were countless eyes staring around the dimly lit docks.
Lao Ou said: "Your impulsiveness not only angered Gao Bai, but also attracted the attention of other forces, and now you have become a celebrity in this black dock." ”
Hugo shrugged helplessly, it seemed that there was indeed some kind of spell on his body, which would always cause something to happen, intentionally or unintentionally.
Lao Ou said: "It can't be changed when it comes to this, I hope you can remember not to be too impulsive in the form in the future, I know that both of you have good strength, but even if you are covered in iron, how many nails can you resist?"
Hugo nodded to show that he knew something about it, and the old gull said: "You have to work harder tonight, we have to change the original location to avoid some unnecessary trouble." ”
Hugo smiled and said, "Listen to me." ”
The group immediately left the Black Wharf, got into two cars that had been waiting for a long time, and drove towards the inner city of Liujie.
The urban area of the 27th arrondissement is very different from Hugo's earlier expectations, although Hugo had looked up information about the street on the Internet before his departure, but the information circulating on the Internet is completely different from the reality.
The streets of the 27th arrondissement are not as barren and dilapidated as imagined, and the houses on both sides of the road look very neat and regular, but compared to the streets of the Tsukishima metropolitan area, they are much darker, like a rural town without electricity.
Lao Ou, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said: "There are no public facilities such as power plants in Liujie, so if you want to use them, you can only support yourself, or pay a high price to get them from some monopoly businessmen. ”
"And the monopoly merchants here?"
Lao Ou said: "Since there is no government management in Liujie, there is naturally no social ideology, and there are naturally all kinds of forces that violate the current conventions here. ”
Hugo said: "I have to say that Liujie has really created a kind of miracle. ”
Lao Ou said: "Where are there so many miracles in this world? It's just a vain attempt to survive, and the life of being born in the street is running around, and death stops." If I had to say anything, it was the source of miracles. ”
Hugo looked up at the roof of the car and muttered, "Have you been running around all your life?"
Lao Ou looked at Hugo through the rearview mirror and said meaningfully: "I just hope that running to the end will not be in vain." ”
