Chapter 357: The Evening Is Sunny in the World (3)
"GOLDEN-APPLE, GOLDEN APPLE, IS IT ......" HUANG ZHICHENG STUFFED ANOTHER HANDFUL OF MILK CHOCOLATE CHIPS INTO HIS MOUTH, CHEWING HARD, AND THE LONG SCAR COVERED BY HIS SUNGLASSES SHOOK AND TREMBLED, LIKE A WRIGGLING CENTIPEDE.
Chen Jianming's full of questions was on his lips, but he could see that Huang Zhicheng's mood was very uncalm at this time, so he consciously held his breath and did not disturb Huang Zhicheng at this moment.
After a long while, Huang Zhicheng reached out and grabbed the air, only to find that a large bag of milk chocolate chips had been eaten by himself unconsciously. He touched his chin, and saw that Chen Jianming was looking at him curiously but didn't dare to make a sound, he smiled and asked, "Do you know the name "Hesperides"?"
"Hesperides?" Chen Jianming carefully searched through his own memories, and replied with some uncertainties: "Does it refer to the name of the goddess who guarded the golden apple tree in ancient Greek mythology? Or does it have some other meaning? ”
"You're right, it's the name of a goddess, but it's also the name of an extremely dangerous criminal syndicate. Huang Zhicheng said in a solemn tone: "Originally, with your level, you can't access this level of confidential information, but since you have encountered it, maybe you will have to encounter them in the next mission, so you can't help but make it clear to you, are you mentally prepared?"
Chen Jianming replied categorically: "Yes!"
"Hmm. Let me think where to start?" Huang Zhicheng habitually touched his chin, then opened another bag of milk chocolate chips, and said while eating: "This criminal group is really quite maverick to say. They are called "Hesperides", as the name suggests, they are the guardians of the golden apple, do you know the story of the golden apple?"
"Well, of course I know, the golden apple is almost the most famous treasure in ancient Greek mythology. I remember that the eleventh of the twelve feats of Hercules on earth was to obtain the golden apple under the watchful eye of Hesperides and the hundred-headed dragon Ladon. And the Trojan War, the war was also related to this. I remember, well, at the wedding of the human hero Paleus and Thetis, the goddess of the sea, all the gods were invited to the wedding, only Eris, the goddess of discord, was not invited. Then Eris held a grudge and used a golden apple with the words "For the most beautiful goddess" at the banquet to trigger a fierce dispute between the three goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite, which directly became the fuse of the Trojan War in which humans and gods fought later...... "Chen Jianming said and suddenly found that he was getting farther and farther away, and quickly stopped.
"What happened later?" Huang Zhicheng asked with interest when he saw Chen Jianming stop suddenly.
"Huh?"
"Ahem, this story is quite interesting. Hey, I didn't even know it was so clear. ”
"Ahh Chen Jianming was a little confused.
"It's far away, it's far away, uh, that, where did I say it, by the way, this, this" Hesperides ", this criminal group is very mysterious, and there is not much information that can be clear at present, only that they are marked by the "golden apple tree entwined with a hundred dragons", and the members are at least four or more, usually acting alone, with "Mr. So" as their respective code names, this so-and-so is the treasure they each pursue, that is, their motives for committing crimes. For example, one of the more active "Mr. Paintings" is a person who specializes in hunting all kinds of world-famous paintings. ”
"Do you steal famous paintings?" asked Chen Jianming.
"No, no, no, how else is this organization a maverick, he does not take famous paintings for himself like ordinary criminals, but specifically targets those who monopolize the collection of famous paintings. He would do whatever it took to make the paintings available to all people. Maybe that's why they got the name "Hesperides". ”
"Ahh Chen Jianming was stunned when he heard this, he really didn't expect it.
Huang Zhicheng put down the milk chocolate and said solemnly: "Don't be fooled by his actions, although his motives are different, but the methods are absolutely cruel. There was a European collector who was reluctant to hand over his collection of famous paintings, and as a result, his entire family died overnight. Every member of this organization is at least a vicious criminal of the Earth Demon level. There is even speculation that the leader of this organization has the strength of a natural disaster and must not be taken lightly. ”
"Natural disaster!" Chen Jianming gasped, "Does this organization even have the ability to destroy a country?"
"Exactly. In addition to "Mr. Painting", there are also "Mr. Sword" who chases famous swords, and "Mr. Instrument" who is obsessed with human organs, and although the other members are not evil, there is no doubt that they are all extremely vicious criminals. ”
Chen Jianming only felt that his throat was dry, and his heart was beating violently, although he had made many guesses about this mission, he never expected that it would be directly related to a criminal group of this level.
"What, scared?"
"Well, this, to be honest, is a bit scary. Chen Jianming blushed and said truthfully.
"It's okay, it's normal to be scared. I'm afraid of my grandmother's. Huang Zhicheng smiled and hugged Chen Jianming's shoulder, then patted his chest and said, "Haha, I won't let a rookie like you face them all at once." You're mainly here for experience, you know? Remember, bring your eyes, bring your ears, bring your brain, and then take care of your hands. ”
"Moreover, this matter may not really be related to "Hesperides", this suicide note ......" Huang Zhicheng was silent for a moment, and said coldly: "I have to investigate further, I think there are still a lot of articles behind this." ”
"Okay, you don't have to think too much about this, aren't you tasked with being a witness to the "Deer Game" on behalf of the General Administration? This time, even the chief of the first session on Yuanyuan Island came, I heard that it is still a rare beauty, hehe, don't you pay more attention?" Huang Zhicheng said with a wicked smile at Chen Jianming, and the heavy atmosphere was suddenly diluted a lot.
Chen Jianming's face was embarrassed, "Team Huang, don't joke with me." ”
"Why? Don't look down on people when the time comes. The students of Yuanyuan Island are not simple, let alone the chief. Although it is customary for the graduating class to elect the 10 most outstanding representatives, only the chief position prefers to be vacant rather than easy to be with others. This is the only genius in the last thirteen years to have graduated with chief honors. Even your dad with eyes on the top of his head doesn't have anything to say. ”
"That's not what I meant, Team Yellow, you ......"
Without waiting for Chen Jianming to finish speaking, Huang Zhicheng patted him on the shoulder and said seriously: "Oh, I understand, you are afraid that people will not look down on you and lose face." ”
Huang Zhicheng took a closer look at Chen Jianming, and then said: "You kid looks like a dog and looks good, you have to have confidence in yourself." Don't worry, I'll teach you a few unique tips later, how about it?"
Chen Jianming was embarrassed, and stammered and explained: "Oh, Team Huang, I really, really don't mean that." ”
"Hahaha......" Huang Zhicheng laughed heartily, "Your kid is so thin-skinned, more tender than a girl, this is not good, no." I have time to ask your dad for a few tricks, huh? He was really good back then, in order to chase your mother, it was really hahahaha......"
