CHAPTER XLV
"Northwest Europe, Mediterranean-South America East Coast route, this is the way we're going. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info But this time the old man is relaxed enough, and he can actually let us live in peace and live on the Atlantic Ocean for twenty days. Pointing to the holographic map floating in the air, Zhuang Yu explained to Ge Chengzhi, "On the way, we should stop at the terminal in the Canary Islands and Cape Verde Islands, I don't know the docking time, so if you want to know, you can ask the captain." β
"I don't know that captain well. Shrugging his shoulders, Ge Chengzhi scratched his head, "And he has obviously been perfunctory to me, if he deliberately leans over to ask this kind of question, the two of them will not be able to get over their faces." Can anyone guarantee the safety of our ship? If we can catch up with the escort or something......
"The tonnage of the freighter is indeed sufficient, and when it came, our navy escorted it all the way, but that was because there were arms on board. When I go back, I should be on my own. Shrugging his shoulders, Zhuang Yu gave a negative answer, "But don't worry about anything, there are a few containers on the ship...... Firefighting rockets. β
ββ¦β¦ Oh my God. It seems that Israel's business is really not small, and even this kind of thing is loaded on civilian ships. Shaking his head and sighing, Ge Chengzhi looked at the sea outside the porthole, "Brazil, Rio de Janeiro." I'm really looking for a place, and the climate in that city is very uncomfortable...... By the way, I heard that the ship next door is going to accompany us?"
"That's right. Okay, I know you look down on the gangster in South America, but he uses the name of keeping both ships safe, and you know what the biggest threat is in the Atlantic right now. That's not something that can be solved by just talking. β
"The Atlantic Fleet of the European Union ......" Touching his chin, Ge Chengzhi suddenly turned around and propped his hands on the table, "It's not a matter of a day or two that the British want to be independent. I remember that the dossier said that our think tank had predicted that Britain would not agree to complete the political and military integration of Europe, and they did not withdraw from it, which shocked everyone at the time. You say, if they really want to be independent, how much of the Atlantic Fleet will be in British hands?"
"It's hard to say. It must be admitted, however, that in order to maintain the stability of the EU's political entity, the recent EU presidency has made too much compromise with the British, and it is only in this term that a tough tightening trend has begun. Without even thinking about it, the Atlantic Fleet must have been infiltrated into a sieve...... But why should we discuss this kind of thing?" Sitting on the sofa and distancing himself from Ge Chengzhi, Zhuang Yu opened a bottle of drink, "No matter how many Atlantic Fleets follow the pace of Britain's revival, once Britain decides to become independent, the fleet that is in the exercise will definitely enter combat readiness." If the next door helps, the chances of us hiding the contents of those containers from the scrutiny will be greatly improved, so we need to go with him. β
ββ¦β¦ Oh, a human trafficker, a brothel owner...... He was simply my natural enemy. With an obvious look of disgust on his face, Ge Chengzhi smacked, "Then why did he take the initiative to ask to go all the way with us?" I don't believe he doesn't know what the 'Hope East' is doing here." Want to open up the Chinese market?"
"He shouldn't have the guts, right? Now you don't know who the biggest boss of China's industry is. Raising his index finger to make a hint, Zhuang Yu took a shallow sip of his drink, "Does this kind of kid dare to come here to steal business? I guess I want to think of some way to do business here." After all, such a big freighter, there are so many people on it. By the way, it seems that he also sells men?"
ββ¦β¦ I've been with you for so many years, and I never knew you liked to spend money on men outside......"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just asking. Now I don't have a penny in my pocket, and I can't find it. Putting his left leg on his right leg, Zhuang Yu smiled, "By the way, otherwise the fat water will not flow into the fields of outsiders, and I will find someone on the boat to solve it?"
"Women should love themselves, Comrade Zhuang Yu. Of course, if you have this intention, you know, I will not stop you. Suddenly sitting directly on the table, Ge Chengzhi let his legs dangle back and forth, "I will never force women to obey my wishes, but I will still give what I think is the right advice." β
"Well~~ yes, the relationship you maintain in Europe may be the situation between good friends of the opposite sex in the eyes of Western culture. I feel like you're probably better suited to be an emotional analyst than an agent, Comrade Ge Chengzhi. With a snap of his fingers, Zhuang Yu smiled even more, "How about it?" I believe you should be interested in this profession." β
"You should go and submit an application to the old man. As you should know from the vampire incident in Jerusalem, some of the material I have read is far beyond my current authority. Since Paris five years ago, the old man has tried every means to tie me to this position. Spreading his hands, Ge Chengzhi made a helpless expression, "So it is impossible for me to escape from this sad fate in my life." On the contrary, you, beautiful Miss Zhuang Yu, have more hope than mine. β
"But I love this profession. I used to think this profession was cool, but it's actually really cool, it's heart-pounding, and it pushes your limits. Standing up from his chair, Zhuang Yu put the drink on the table, "So I like this profession." Hmm, it's unbelievable that my best friend in life is an academic talent like Yulin......"
"Are you still in touch with her? I was under her impression that I was long dead, so if we met, the profession would definitely be exposed. It's sad. β
"Uh-huh, yes, it's really pathetic, it's sad, it's pathetic, you're slowly envy me over there. The sun is about to go down, so I'll go take a shower first. Walking to the door, Zhuang Yu stopped, "Also, don't put on that expression, it's really not suitable for you, how do you feel that I don't care, but that expression makes me uncomfortable." I know you like Yulin, so there's no need to hide this kind of thing in front of me. Take the time to enlighten yourself, after all...... The chances of you marrying her are basically gone. β
ββ¦β¦ Huh!?"
Touching his face, Ge Chengzhi looked at the back of Zhuang Yu, who was slowly leaving, with a sense of refreshment for some reason, and was stunned in the room.

"Well, I'll repeat it again. Pacing back and forth in the room, Ge Yiwei suddenly stopped, raised his head and instructed the three girls sitting on the bed, "When you are on the boat, pay attention to all abnormal matters, try to use the compressed food we bring for food, and if you want water, you must take it from the water supply system by yourself, and you are not allowed to drink any water from others." Try not to take off your clothes, even when you are sleeping, and do not take a shower for these twenty days......"
"Xiaowei, what are you trying to do? Even in such a dangerous place as Jerusalem, I haven't seen you so nervous. Interrupting the words that Ge Yiwei had already repeated ten times, Reimu frowned visibly impatiently, "How lucky we are to meet Mr. Herbert, why do you always look like you can't sit still?"
"Of course, it's because I'm so lucky, I'm too lucky, so I suspect it's a bit boring. And my intuition also tells me that the guy named Herbert is definitely not a good person, don't look at him as polite, but his temperament exudes from the inside out is definitely not like that...... Uh, um, well, I don't feel any temperament at all, it's all my. Being stared at by three pairs of eyes, Ge Yiwei finally told the truth, "But that person is definitely not as simple as it seems." Besides, you three think about it, have the three of you ever met me with anything good? How could it be that all of a sudden, such a kind person would send us to Rio de Janeiro for free and let me be a bodyguard for twenty days?"
"Huh, a good thing?" With a wink, Marisa put her big hat on the bed, "Isn't it the greatest good thing for you to meet Xiaowei?
"Hmm...... The lethality of this sentence is so great...... "Sanae, who suddenly shrank up for some reason, muttered to herself, "Sure, it's not Marisa...... You can say something that makes you shy......"
"I said, I said, Miss Toshidani, seriously, the first thing that worried me the most during this time was Marisa, but her problem was thinking about her brother, so my heart was cleared, and my second worry was about you. I feel like your performance has been a bit abnormal lately," his hand shook in front of Sanae's eyes, who seemed to have fallen into his own world again, and Ge Yiwei really showed a worried expression, "Is it that there have been so many ups and downs during this time, and you can't stand it physically and mentally?" Boss, Marisa, the precautions I just said, you two help me take care of Miss Dongfenggu and let her have a good rest. β
"No, I'm fine, Mr. Ge. Hurriedly waved his hand, Sanae showed a smile, "It's just, well, it's just that the things I need to think about recently seem to have become more breathless, and that's from meeting Mr. Ge again...... Ah, I'm not saying that these things are burdens, I'm glad to meet Mr. Ge again......!
ββ¦β¦ Well, well, I won't force you, Miss Dongfangu. Looking at the other party's incoherent appearance, Ge Yiwei nodded, "But I'll give you a suggestion." There are some things that don't think about it and relax. I knew it would hurt when I couldn't think clearly, but I let it go gently. After taking a break, you might be able to really find a way to figure things out. The way of civil and martial arts, one piece and one relaxation. β
"Yes...... Is that so?" Sanae asked softly, lowering her head, "Do you want to let go of the pain gently......?" Since Mr. Ge said so, I'll give it a try......"
"Uh-huh," coughed fiercely, and Lingmeng glanced at Ge Yiwei dissatisfied, "Compared to this kind of thing, Xiaowei, are you going to patrol now? If your current real boss finds out that you are lazy in your work, he may just throw us into the sea." β
"Ah, that's a nuisance, but you three shouldn't have to worry, after all, you can fly, and I can't. Although he can swim, he can't float long in the sea. Nodding in agreement, Ge Yiwei picked up his gun and stood up, "In short, try not to leave any chance that others may sneak up on you or have the handle to threaten you, and you can ......do it as I have said many times."
"Okay, okay, okay, you can get out quickly!" stood up and stretched out his hands to push Ge Yiwei out, Lingmeng said, "We have our own measure in what we do! It's not a two- or three-year-old child...... This is the boudoir of three young girls, and now that it's getting dark, why don't you, as a security guard, hurry up and go on patrol?"
"Okay, okay, don't push me to go well......"

Because of the words he blurted out, he actually felt lonely in his heart, which Reimu never expected. In fact, since she met Ge Yiwei again, she has been consciously or unconsciously avoiding that question: now, Ge Yiwei no longer belongs to the Boli Shrine, and the title of "boss" sounds more and more like a sarcasm.
It's better to say that from beginning to end, I haven't really been the man's boss, although I have been called "boss" and "boss" all the time. So, what exactly is yourself?
For Reimu, who has always had few troubles because she doesn't care much about most things, Ge Yiwei may be able to be called the source of her troubles. When he explained the aftermath in Sydney, he asked Sanae to be the guide for the three to integrate into modern society, and Marisa to be the mediator when the three of them had conflicts, and he ...... It is the role of the leader of the three, pointing out the direction and formulating the strategy.
That's where Ge Yiwei is now. Whether he wanted to or not, and whether he realized it or not, the strategy of action of this small group of four was completely guided and determined by him. And he tried to give up that position to me...... If you reason in this way, isn't the relationship between the two people in Ge Yiwei's heart like a teacher and a student?
This inference really made Reimu's heart a little ...... Uncomfortable. As for why, I'm afraid that in addition to being treated as a student and making my self-esteem a little unbearable, other reasons still account for the vast majority. Marisa was obviously tired and had just laid down on the bed, while Sanae was probably slowly regurgitating Ge Yiwei's suggestion, and sat on the edge of the bed with a thoughtful expression. Seeing that these two people were not easy to disturb, Reimu sighed and fell on the pillow.
Sleep, sleep, sleep. Why do I have to think about so many things? I didn't have to think about it so much before, didn't I still live a good life in Gensokyo? So don't think about it so much...... Ah, it seems to coincide with Xiaowei's advice to Sanae. Since this suggestion is easy to use, it is good to take it and use it. Didn't Xiaowei also say "take-it-or-leave-it"......
Thinking about it slowly, Reimu gradually fell asleep.

"How's that?" asked Herbert as his men walked into his room, "do you have any reaction to those three good men? β
"No, boss. But the man was very vigilant, and kept close to them asking for something. And until now, the three of them haven't even revealed a flaw. Shaking his head a little frustratedly, the subordinate replied, "If this continues, it will be almost impossible to complete the training of those three women." β
ββ¦β¦ Don't change your training schedule just yet. Tonight, try to get rid of the man. Remember, do it beautifully, and don't have any flaws. You know how to train the best of the best. Taking a cigar from the drawer, Herbert held it in his mouth, "The force of force can cause unforeseen damage, so everything should be light and fast." We only have twenty days, and at least twenty days to get them willing to go with us. β
"Do you really want to get rid of that man in such a hurry? Boss, actually, I feel that it might be better not to kill him but to take him hostage. The three women clearly cared about the Chinese guy. β
"Heh, so he's not a good guy either, a slut who steps on three boats......" Slowly exhaling a puff of smoke rings, Herbert shook his head, "Do as I say, get rid of him." When the hostage fails at a higher rate than kills, if it fails, we have to face tighter defenses. Got it?"
