Pang Jindong asked, "But what about when you come back?"

Qin Yushi replied: "When my parents get their green cards, I will mobilize them to come back too." ”

Pang Jindong nodded with a smile and said, "You realized earlier than me!"

Qin Yushi didn't understand the deep meaning behind this sentence, and couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked strangely: "What do you mean......"

"It's nothing!" After a pause, Pang Jindong continued: "I hope you can come back soon!"

"I hope so, too!"

Qin Yushi sat for a while and then left. After Pang Jindong waited for her to leave, he carefully inspected the situation at home and found that the secret room, secret passage and basement were not exposed, but the other things were in a mess.

Pang Jindong has been to many places, and everywhere he goes, he will get some local characteristics as a souvenir of what he has been to, and gradually accumulated a lot. Although the turbulent career of the mercenaries makes the storage of these items very problematic, it is very fortunate that the mercenaries have a fixed headquarters in the sphere of influence of the opposition forces. Every time Pang Jindong gets the same, he will come up with many ways to send it there. Gradually, Pang Jindong created a small world for himself at the headquarters.

When he returned to China, Pang Jindong brought back these collections, and spent a lot of money just on shipping, not to mention the complicated and cumbersome customs declaration and inspection.

After buying this villa, Pang Jindong finally had his own comfortable nest, so he carefully displayed these things. The decoration of the villa was designed by Pang Jindong himself, and it was quite successful as a whole. Here you can see full-scale miniatures of the Taj Mahal, Nepalese Buddha statues, North American Indian handicrafts, as well as domestic XZ thangkas, Yunnan wood carvings, and so on. Although Pang Jindong is not a person with great artistic cells, it is precisely because of the existence of these things that the home is filled with a cultural atmosphere, which has left a deep impression on everyone who has visited.

Although no property was lost, during the search, the police officers inevitably did not pay attention to the integrity of the items, so that they were all bumped into by different processes, and some easily damaged items appeared cracks.

Looking at the appearance of the house, Pang Jindong was really too lazy to clean up, so he simply picked out the important things and sorted them out, planning to hand over the rest to the part-timers.

As soon as he finished doing this, Pang Jindong's mobile phone rang, and it was an unfamiliar number. From the international area code in front, Pang Jindong knew that this call was from country M.

The bell kept ringing, and Pang Jindong was hesitant to pick it up, but also very puzzled who the other party was. In the end, Pang Jindong still picked up the phone, and a deep voice came out from inside: "Jerry, is that you?"

This voice is both familiar and unfamiliar, familiar because it once left too deep an impression on Pang Jindong, and strange because the years have made this voice much older.

After a moment of silence, Pang Jindong replied, "Hello, Director Anderson!"

"I'm glad you remember my voice!" Director Anderson smiled and added, "I was worried just now about whether you would answer the call!"

"Actually, I don't want to remember, but your voice has had too much impact on me. ”

Director Anderson didn't speak immediately, but after a long time, he slowly asked, "After all these years, do you still hate me?"

Pang Jindong replied categorically: "I hate you for using me with such despicable means. After another moment of silence, Pang Jindong continued: "But I am grateful that you have taught me so many things. What's more, after all, it was your use of me that saved me from Aideed's grasp. ”

"I'm glad you look at things this way!"

Pang Jindong smiled and said, "I don't have paranoid personality disorder, and I'm not persecuted paranoia. ”

Director Anderson sighed, his tone full of helplessness: "Jerry, I hope you can forgive me for the past...... You know, I'm a politician. ”

"A lot of times, we have to do things that we don't want to do. ”

Director Anderson nodded and said, "It is for this reason that I hope you can do one more thing for me......"

Pang Jindong immediately interrupted Director Anderson's words and told the other party: "Please don't say too much!"

"Don't worry!" Director Anderson smiled and continued, "It's a secure phone, and it won't be bugged by anyone." ”

"That's good!" After a pause, Pang Jindong said again: "You have a lot of people under you!"

"Of all the people under me, you are the one I admire the most. ”

Pang Jindong asked: "I don't know what I did, let you appreciate me like this!"

"Because you learn anything very quickly. At that time, you were like the rising sun, young and full of energy, and I hope that you have not regressed now. ”

"With all due respect, your appreciation is a torture for me. ”

Director Anderson ignored Pang Jindong's sarcasm, and said a little impatiently: "I really hope you can help me again, the current shape is very critical, and I can't lose." ”

This sentence immediately overturned Pang Jindong's feelings about Director Anderson, who until a minute ago believed that after so many years, Director Anderson had changed a lot. Compared with the gentleman who was full of elegance but had a heart like a femme fatale, the current Director Anderson seemed old and powerless, and his tone often revealed a kind of helplessness about fate. But now this statement makes no doubt that Director Anderson is still a politician.

The unsuccessful transformation of Director Anderson by the years made Pang Jindong very confused, but Pang Jindong calmed down and thought about it, but he felt that it was not difficult to understand this. Director Anderson has indeed changed, and he has taken a lot of things lightly, but he is still a politician after all.

Director Anderson once said to Pang Jindong: "Even if you only engage in politics for one day, then you will be a politician for the rest of your life." Because from now on, you will look at your life with the eyes and way of thinking of a politician. ”

Pang Jindong's thinking was interrupted by Director Anderson's words: "I hope you can think about it again!"

"But you know I've quit!"

"Jerry, you know I'm a generous man, and I'm going to pay you more than you could have imagined. ”

"Director Anderson, money is no longer an issue for me now. And I really don't want to get involved in complicated political struggles, so I can only say I'm sorry!"

"Yes! That's a pity!" Director Anderson sighed, his words full of disappointment.

"You'd better be smart, I'm sure you have many other options. Like, the House agent you sent to me. If I'm not mistaken, his contact details are also the ones he gave you!"

"Yes!" Director Anderson pondered for a moment, then continued, "House used to be a very good officer under me, but the last two years have ......"

Pang Jindong planned Anderson's words: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in knowing your internal affairs!"

"I know!" Director Anderson paused, and the voice on the other end of the line indicated that he had just taken a sip of wine. Then, Director Anderson continued: "When people get older, they always want to confide in others. ”

"I'm sorry I'm not the one to listen to!"

"But there is no one around me who can be trusted. ”

Pang Jindong knew that what Director Anderson said was the truth. He must be cautious in his words and deeds on weekdays, otherwise a very casual word may become something unfavorable to him from his political opponents. Pang Jindong is far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, and it has nothing to do with his life and career, so he can easily say all the things that are depressed in his heart.

Pang Jindong chatted with Director Anderson for a long time before hanging up the phone. The content of the subsequent conversation was all about some situation in their respective lives, and there was nothing related to politics, and Director Anderson did not make that request again. After knowing each other for ten years, Pang Jindong felt that Director Anderson had not acted like an ordinary man until today.

Anderson's personal request for help made Pang Jindong not rest very late. But this was a lucky thing for Pang Jindong, because he found out in time that someone was trying to sneak into his home.
