Roman Holiday Chapter 57 The Long Night
"A month?"
Ying Lan, who got the answer, didn't look very happy, but an anxious look appeared on her face: "Why is it so long?
However, Andrei's answer did not mean the slightest worry: "After all, Lechuan has just arrived, there is no need to always let him participate in so many heavy tasks, and his performance in this mission is very good, so the boss decided to give him a short vacation." Of course, you need to accompany him, and it can be regarded as protecting him. β
After receiving the reply, Ying Lan pointed to Gu Lichuan, who was standing aside: "I, protect him, are you teasing me?"
And Gu Lichuan smiled awkwardly.
"Anyway, you have to thank Lechuan, if it weren't for him, you wouldn't have such a long vacation. Andrei shrugged, noncommittal.
"Cut. Ying Lan pouted disdainfully, pointed the lens of the liaison instrument at Gu Lichuan again, and completely withdrew from Andre's field of vision.
Gu Lichuan took the liaison: "Anyway, thank you Boss Long for me." β
Andrei nodded: "Okay, I'll tell him." You have to take advantage of the opportunity, this is a month-long vacation. After saying that, Andre raised his eyebrows, revealing a very interesting expression.
Hearing this, Gu Lichuan stretched out his index finger and scratched his sideburns as if he didn't understand, and stopped talking.
Suddenly, Ying Lan snatched the liaison device from Gu Lichuan's hand: "Okay, that's it, it's not too early, you can rest early, Andre." And the next time I whisper, be quiet. See you soon!"
"Eh! haunting you......"
The picture dimmed suddenly, and the haunting face disappeared from the screen, and Andre looked at the pitch-black screen and let out a long breath.
Then, he turned to look at Long Ao, who was sitting at the end of the long table, and Xingchen, White Fox, and Mu Yi on either side of the line. Behind the tall floor-to-ceiling windows is a dark night, with a few lights flickering on and then quickly extinguishing in the darkness β the city is finally in a brief period of weariness.
"I finally came back, and I had to work overtime when I was physically and mentally exhausted. The white fox lay on the table dissatisfied, muttering quietly. Xingchen, who sat at his table, crossed his arms and said nothing.
"Why don't you speak?" Seeing that Xingchen was a little silent, Mu Yi, who was sitting next to the white fox, asked.
Xingchen shook his head, and secretly pinched his right arm with his left hand, and even the slight pain was gone, not only thanks to the mysterious magician and Ying Lan, but also thanks to his strong body beyond ordinary people's imagination.
It is estimated that Andre had already told Long Ao about the attack he had received, which is why he was called by Long Ao so late.
So what is the reason for the white fox?
Thinking so, Xingchen shifted his gaze from the table to the white fox.
"I'm sorry to call you here so late," Long Ao, who was sitting in the chief, finally spoke after Andre turned off the contact device, "Because of the special situation, I'll make a long story short......"
Long Ao leaned forward, put his left arm on the edge of the table, and his whole expression suddenly became serious: "Give me a specific report on the attack today." β
Hearing this, the shocked eyes of the three of White Fox, Xingchen and Mu Yi converged in an instant.
"The man in black?" asked the white fox uncontrollably to Xingchen.
Xingchen raised his hand: "One is a killer, the speed is so fast that even I can barely keep up with his speed." The other one has no characteristics, mediocre combat effectiveness, but has strange superpowers that hurt my hand. β
"What kind of superpower can hurt you?" the white fox asked, looking at his hand, "And I didn't see you hurt, what kind of injury? Broken bones?"
"Burns," Xingchen put his hand down, "and he transferred the burns from his body to me. And the hand has been healed by Yinglan. β
Long Ao nodded, and then looked at the white fox: "What did you meet?"
"Whew......," the white fox let out a long breath and fell into a soft sofa-like chair very tiredly, "Three people, two men and one woman." A strong man, a performance is not obvious, but he can simply pass a few tricks with me, but that woman gives me a very terrifying feeling, not only deliberately hiding her identity, but also hiding her strength. β
"That strong man," Mu Yi added, "is not human. β
"Not a person?" Long Ao cast an interested look.
Although his movements were smooth and natural, I could see the stiff pause from the subtleties, and the environment at that time was very noisy, so neither the white fox nor Gu Lichuan heard the slight friction sound of gear clenching in his body. And ......" Mu Yi looked at the desktop, one hand drew circles on the desktop, and the dark green pupils exuded a faint light, like a lone wolf hiding in the middle of the night and roaring softly.
"I think that person is very likely to be from the top. β
"Tell me about it. Hearing this, Long Ao was not only not surprised, but indifferently let Mu Yi continue.
"The man's voice, although it sounded processed, still gave me a very familiar feeling, which of course can only be called intuition, not strong evidence. However, on the battlefield, I witnessed him release a dark red laser cannon, and that attack method was almost exactly the same as the attack method of the No. 13 mecha that Gu Lichuan had killed before. It is estimated that this kind of technology will only be used by Qin Hong's Technology Research and Development Bureau. Mu Yi analyzed methodically, and Andre, who was standing on the side, nodded frequently as he listened.
"That's right," the white fox snapped his fingers suddenly, "When the No. 13 mecha in our actual combat base ran away before, I suspected that the old bald donkey was doing ghosts. From this point of view, this series of events must be inseparable from him. β
"But there's no way for us to investigate these things," Xingchen, who had listened to their statements, finally spoke at this moment, "Qin Hong, as the person in charge of mecha development of the Technology Development Bureau, doesn't mean that he can disappear if he is missing......
"Also," the white fox completely ignored Xingchen's words and interjected again, "I think the woman in the lead is very likely to be interested in Gu Lichuan." β
"What do you mean by that?" Long Ao smiled slightly, and when he heard this strange conclusion that had nothing to do with the task, he relaxed a little.
The white fox shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "When I was in contact with those three mysterious characters, I always tried my best to give them the illusion that 'I am the captain', but that woman was only talking to Gu Lichuan from beginning to end. β
"That's probably because you don't look like a captain, but Gu Lichuan looks calmer and calmer, much stronger than you. Xingchen, who was interrupted by the white fox, began to mercilessly mend the white fox with dissatisfaction at this moment.
The white fox looked at the stars, smiled slightly, and the knife under the table began to slowly unsheath.
"Don't fight here. Long Ao waved his hand and turned his gaze to Andreiβhe was waiting for Andrei's answer.
Of course, Andre also noticed Long Ao's gaze, but this time, he seemed to back down. In other words, he seemed to hesitate about something.
"If you have anything to say, just say it," Mu Yi whispered to Andre, "The boss definitely won't blame you." β
But Andre chose to shake his head, he didn't seem to be worried about Long Ao's attitude.
Long Ao looked at Andre and was silent.
For a moment, the entire hall fell silent.
Andrey, what the hell are you thinking......
Looking at Andre, who bowed his head and was silent, the white fox's expression became a little heavy.
"Then so be it," Long Ao's words broke the awkward silence, "I think although the words of the white fox are very out of tune, they still have a certain basis. β
As he spoke, he put his hand on the control panel, and for a moment, the masked woman in black appeared in the holographic projection of the hall.
"Xingchen, tomorrow will be carried out as originally planned. β
Nodding, Xingchen straightened up and walked out of the hall, leaving the sound of tapping footsteps along the way.
"You two too, hard work, but don't be late tomorrow. Long Ao looked at the white fox and Mu Yi again.
"Okay, no problem, won't be late. After all, it's the boss's order, and I'll have to be tired to death. As he spoke, the white fox shrugged helplessly and threw a good-natured joke.
So Mu Yi also left the hall with the white fox.
"Why don't you stay for a while?" After leaving the hall, Mu Yi followed behind the white fox and asked, "Don't you still want to carefully analyze the matter of that woman with Boss Long Ao?"
The white fox didn't answer, and walked forward like a puppet.
"I'll ask you!" Seeing that the white fox didn't reply, Mu Yi was a little angry and pushed the white fox's ass with his knee.
So the white fox had to stop, and slowly turned to look at Mu Yi.
"You, your eyes are good, but your brain is not good. β
"What do you mean?"
"Can't you see? Andre must know more than we know, or the Boss wouldn't have asked him for his final opinion. β
"But Andre obviously didn't want to say it," after listening to the white fox's words, Mu Yi asked even more puzzled, "so you should stay." β
The white fox smiled slightly, turned around and continued to walk forward: "Do you think that the boss will know less than Andre knows?"
In the hall, Long Ao and Andre sat and stood one after another, looking at each other without saying a word.
"There's something you want to say, there's something you can say. Long Ao looked at Andre, and his expression became much more relaxed.
Andrei opened his mouth with some hesitation: "Boss, why did you give Gu Lichuan and Ying Lan such a long vacation?"
"Because he has just joined the special operations team, he still needs to be repaired, and Ying Lan can just keep ......"
"You actually want Gu Lichuan to protect Ying Lan!" Andre interrupted Long Ao's words, his finger quickly clicked on the operating system of the control panel, and strings of information appeared in the projection of the whole system like a marquee, and then, a short video also came into the eyes of the two of them - the shaky camera was facing the approaching black shadows, and the noise seemed to hear the sound of the long knife unsheathed, the voice of the cold female voice and the sound of shouting.
A hand slowly approaches the camera, and then the camera is shrouded in a layer of white ice mist, and the last frame is left with the expressionless face of the blue-black haired young man and the unusually clear words.
"Special operations team, we will pick up the second lady back after a while. β
Looking at this video, Long Ao fell silent.
"This is the video left by the finishing team members who rushed over with the plane that picked up the white fox, you have already seen this," Andre took a step forward, the expression on his face became more and more excited, "You also know the identity of Ying Lan, now they want to take Ying Lan back, who knows if they are Wen or Wu!
Long Ao smiled: "When Ying Lan first came, I didn't think she could go back quietly. β
"That's what I said," Andre took another step forward, "I also firmly believe that even if we fight, we won't be left behind, but now we are tied from above and can't be used!"
"Outside, there is this Wuming waiting for their second young lady Yinglan; above, that minister doesn't trust us at all, although he has assigned us a lot of tasks, but he hides more secrets, and he is completely using us as a gun; We're really embattled right now!"
As soon as the words fell, Long Ao swooped up, and his broad palm slapped Andrei's shoulder, but the slap was not too heavy.
In an instant, Andrei's agitated emotions were miraculously calmed down.
"You, you haven't changed a little after so many years, and you're still the same as when you first came to me, extremely smart and easy to make mistakes. Long Ao smiled, and his resolute face showed a father's gentleness.
Andre was stunned for a moment, then smiled and let out a long sigh.
"Yes, our special operations team has never stopped, haven't we come to this point? β
"Don't we walk at night?"
Long Ao also smiled in return, patted Andre again, and then looked out the window at the dark night without lights and stars. Following his gaze, AndrΓ© also looked out.
