Li Cao is a typical Oriental.

Born in the Republic, he not only has the appearance of an Oriental, but also the typical Oriental habits.

The first thing I do when I go to work is neither to read documents nor to think of countermeasures, but to make tea.

The fragrance of the curling tea turned into a warm white mist, gradually enveloping Li Cao's figure in the fragrance.

In the quiet time, taste the fragrance of tea, in a quiet......

"Lee! What the hell are you doing! ”

The office door was pushed open.

The person who came was Li Cao's best friend and one of the core cadres of Black Moon, Liu.

"Ahh Would you like a drink? The best dragon well. ”

Li Cao said this, and handed the teacup in his hand to Liu.

"No need! Li Cao, do you know what you're doing! ”

Liu hit with a rough backhand, Li Cao was keenly aware of his intentions, his toes were on the floor, and he slid backwards with a chair as if flying, not only did there be no friction sound, but not even a drop of the full tea in Li Cao's hand spilled out.

"Just tea. Drink tea. ”

"Li Cao, you know what I'm asking!"

Today's Liu is not the same as usual.

The man who used to be silent and steady has become irritable today. This is rare for him. Liu is a calm person, and it must be something that makes him extremely indignant to accuse Li Cao so angrily that he ignores the identity gap with Li Cao.

"It's all said, don't be so angry. I remember asking for your opinion on that. ”

Li Cao looked pity, took a sip of tea lightly, and showed an intoxicated expression on his face. The hot water made his glasses shrouded in a white mist, and Liu couldn't see his eyes clearly, only his smile was relaxed and indifferent.

"I don't remember. Actually transferred forty percent of the boxers back to China? What the hell are you thinking! Originally, we were at a disadvantage in the competition with Lubacher, so isn't this even more disadvantageous! ”

"Oh yes, that's right."

A certain purple-haired fox with glasses continues to drink tea.

"But I remember, I said it before. ' We can bring back some of the extra fighters.'" ”

"What! Is that to discuss with me! ”

Liu was so angry that he wanted to grab Li Cao's chest, but Li Cao was one step faster than him, curled up with his right leg and stepped on the chair, volleying a backflip to avoid Liu's capture. The tea in his cup still didn't spill! Ripples, but not a drop spilled. Even for a moment, the rim of the cup went straight down, but it didn't spill.

"Okay Liu, don't do useless work. Calm down. Return to your usual self. ”

Li Cao said in a tone that didn't care about himself.

"Li Cao! You're in danger! ”

"Not dangerous."

"Lee!"

I said...... Never mind. ”

Seeing that Liu didn't mean to calm down, Li Cao flashed behind Liu with a sliding step, and his musician-like delicate hand was like an iron tong, holding Liu's head and slamming it to the ground!

Boom!

"Now, are you sober?"

Li ...... I was so excited. ”

was hit by Li Cao's forehead, and Liu finally calmed down.

"But, Lee, I don't understand. Why withdraw the fighters. Are you ready to surrender to Rubacher? ”

"Impossible. Markney wasn't that generous. ”

"So, is it to let them go back and secretly open up a new 'channel'?"

Liu Bu, who didn't guess well, continued to talk about his guess.

"Not really. They have indeed been transferred back to the headquarters. ”

"So, is it to use their salaries to hire more powerful masters?"

"Haha, I guessed wrong again."

Li Cao seemed to be playing a game with him, showing a happy smile like a child.

"So, what the hell is going on! Originally, we were at a disadvantage in the 'competition', and you cut off your hands and feet like this, how can you defeat Rubacher. ”

"Well, why did you defeat Rubacher?"

This time, it was Li Cao's turn to ask rhetorically.

He drank most of the cup of tea, and before he could finish drinking, Li Cao immediately refilled half a cup for himself. He sat at the desk, banging his feet, supporting his chin with one hand, the smile on his lips and his confidence stronger.

"What...... That's our goal. ”

Liu's voice clearly revealed "incredible" and "unbelievable" feelings.

"Huh? Isn't our goal to get a piece of the cake at Cross Bell? ”

"That's right! Therefore, it is necessary to defeat Rubacher in order to seize the 'market'. ”

"So, that's the problem. Why equate 'capturing the market' with 'defeating Rubach'? ”

"Huh?"

Li Cao admired Liu's troubled expression now. Although he was very sorry for Liu, his expression made Li Cao clearly realize how advanced his wisdom was.

"I know what you're thinking. Because Crossbell already has a huge monopoly mafia organization, Rubacher, and it is a super-large organization in collusion with the Parliament, if Black Moon wants to enter Crossbell, Lubacher is bound to hinder us. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, so we must eradicate Rubacher. ”

"That's right."

Liu affirmed Li Cao's statement.

Not only Liu, but every Black Moon member, and even the Council of Elders in the distant Republic also judged it this way. Therefore, Black Moon's original policy was to "do your best to fight-for-tat with Lubacher in various fields".

"But ah, Liu. That was a policy that could only be used in the case of the Black Moon and Rubacher organizations. ”

Li Cao gently pushed down his glasses, the half-dried white mist made his eyes blurry, and Liu suddenly realized that he didn't know the man with glasses.

"Liu, do you know what tactics are the most taboo?"

"What is it?"

"The most taboo thing is 'full faith'."

“…… Sorry, I don't understand. ”

"It's okay to deploy tactics before the fight. But the tide of battle is ever-changing, and strategists must adapt their tactics to the situation. Therefore, in our country, there will be 'generals outside, and the king's order will not be affected'. That is to say, in order not to delay the warplane, the generals will often ignore the orders of the monarch - that is, the 'established policy'. So do I. ”

“……”

"Liu, have you noticed? Now Cross Bell has four forces. Therefore, it is a pity that our original strategy can no longer be used without brains. ”

Li Cao made a smack sound as he took out a piece of red rope from his pocket and knotted it. At the same time, he held out four fingers. Put the closed rope around your fingers, and the four fingers form exactly four fulcrums, and the red rope forms a quadrilateral.

"Now, that's the case with Cross Bell. Rubacher, Black Moon, Karumen, and the organization that fights against Karumun - let's call him the Occult Order. There are four forces in total. Among them, Lubacher and our Black Moon are mutually contained, and they have no time to care about Karumun and the mysterious organization. And Karumon and the mysterious organization are also holding each other back, causing them to have no time to care about Black Moon and Lubacher. Well, now the question arises. What happens if one of the pivots of the quadrilateral disappears? ”

"Turning into a triangle?"

"Haha, very interesting insight." Li Cao smiled and bent a finger. The originally angular quadrilaterals suddenly returned to the soft red rope, and it drooped weakly along the gravitational force. Triangle? Well, it can be said that there is a soft triangle in front of it.

"See. If the relationship that was originally balanced is broken, it will become like this. Relationships will fall apart completely. The rope could have turned into a triangle, but that would take time. And during this time...... Humph......"

Li Cao sneered twice, stretched his waist, and rubbed his temples at the same time. A look of overuse of the brain.

"Then, Lee, how can you guarantee that they won't devour us first? Or, why are you so confident? ”

"Hmph, you saw that too. Today's thing. The battle between Karumon and the mysterious organization. With this level of fighting, do you think they still have the strength to deal with us and Rubacher? Consider what Carrumen Haas did in the Republic. He would have chosen such a gentle propaganda method in Crossbell because they were too powerless to fight against the autonomous state government and the occult organization at the same time. And the mysterious organization also has the intention of increasing Karumen's prestige to allow the autonomous state government to contain Karumen. It's also because they're struggling to deal with Karumen. ”

Li Cao put away the red rope and drank the tea that had begun to cool in one gulp, and Li Cao, who was moisturized, continued.

"With their struggling situation, how can they divide their forces to destroy us or Rubacher? The same goes for us. We're going to fight Rubacher with all our might, and Rubacher has to fight us with all my might. In this way, everyone is divided into two battlefields, forming a delicate balance without interfering with each other. And now, we, the Black Moon, are going to break this equilibrium. Pull away. Tell Rubacher that we are the Black Moon and have insufficient strength. Then, Rubacher, who has lost his opponent, will definitely target Karumun and the mysterious organization. However, the strength of the Karumon Consortium is too strong to fight, the mysterious organization is too mysterious to contact, and although our Black Moon is weak, we are still stationed in Crossbell...... In this case, there are only two possibilities: first, Markney recognizes the status quo and unites with Karuman against the mysterious organization. However, the relationship between him and Karumon is also full of ghosts, hum...... Second, Markney didn't notice the occult organization. In this way, he will attack Karumen and us in various areas. In this way, Karumun and the mysterious organization will clearly recognize Rubacher's dangerous desire to attack, and then join forces to eliminate Rubacher. Third, Karumun, or the Occult Order, will help us strengthen the Black Moon. Not surprisingly, Karumen's people will come to the door today to sell weapons, and moreover, it is more than half of the ultra-low price! When the balance begins to crumble, humanity has only two paths to keep itself from being involved in change: maintain the balance, or break another fulcrum and build a new balance. Other words...... Anyway, Rubacher ...... It's dead. If my estimate is good, in no more than 5 months, we Black Moon will be able to take Crossbell with minimal losses. When Rubacher disappeared, it was when our Black Moon rose. ”

After listening to Li Cao's exposition, Liu only felt terrible.

He is a boxer, but also a Black Moon officer, on weekdays he vaguely thinks that he is a high-level, more than those ordinary boxers, today compared with Li Cao, Liu found that he still thinks too little.

Li Cao has all the qualities that a leader should have. Ambition, strength, thought, conversation skills.

"Moreover, don't worry that our Black Moon will be defeated by Lubacher, the autonomous prefecture government will not sit back and watch Lubacher destroy the Black Moon, after all, we are also 'a part of Crossbell's economic construction'. Now, Liu, do you still have any confusion about my course of action? ”

"You're always right. Plum. I will accompany you to any battlefield, a mountain of swords and a sea of fire. ”

"Ah, your enlightenment, I take it. Before that, do you want a drink, the good dragon well? ”
