1002. Chapter 1002 A Familiar Taste
Lao Liu held his chin and answered my question while thinking about the past: "My eldest brother didn't say much, only said that this Thomas was fierce and decisive, but he also had great benevolence and righteousness, and he was a person worth befriending." γγγCute sister paper reading book essential website. γ
But Thomas is a member of the Wallace family after all, and there is a gray power underneath, which he will come into contact with no matter what. And Thomas didn't want to touch these gray powers, so he chose a person who was responsible for contacting the gray power under his hands, and this person was codenamed Eight. β
Saying that, the sixth sighed and said with some embarrassment: "This guy called No. 8 is the real ruthless person, and the people who died under his hands are too many to count, and it is not too much to say that he is a terrorist leader." β
I listened quietly, and I just thought it was too strange how a good person like Thomas could leave a 'terrorist' to do things for him.
And I can't help but think of the sloppy old man I saw today, this guy looks harmless to humans and animals, but I didn't expect his real face to be like this, and there is such an unknown side.
"Sss Thinking of this, I couldn't help but gasp, and I had a faint bad premonition in my heart, I just felt that when facing that eight, it was best to be careful and take more precautions.
"What's wrong?" Li Xuefei and the sixth child saw my shocked look, their eyes widened, and they asked puzzledly.
I didn't hide it from them, and explained to them directly: "I met that number eight today, and I made some agreements with him. β
"What, you've seen the terror boss." The sixth man opened his mouth wide, extremely surprised, it is difficult for him to have something in this world that makes him so expressive, and from this it can also be seen that the position of the eighth in his mind.
"That's right, I did see him, but there are some differences between what that person told you, and I'm wondering if it's because he's old, so his murderous aura has been restrained." I muttered.
Li Xuefei frowned, her eyes full of worry: "What agreement did you reach with him?" β
I spread my hands at her: "In three days, take you with him and he will take us to Thomas." β
Li Xuefei's brows furrowed even tighter, and then she pestered me to ask some detailed questions, obviously because after listening to the words of the sixth child, she was very worried about the number eight's personality.
Although I also had a lot of worries in my heart, I had to comfort her: "Don't worry, that guy is still following Thomas, and he won't have any ill will towards us. β
Saying that, I changed the topic and glared at Li Xuefei angrily: "Anyway, if you go to see Thomas when the time comes, you are going to climb the mountain, can you?" β
When Li Xuefei heard this, she was immediately dissatisfied: "How can it be rare for me to climb the mountain!" β
I suspect that this guy was sick the day before, and although he is well now, his body has not yet recovered, and climbing the mountain is still too reluctant for her.
"I don't believe it, but there are still three days left, so I will take advantage of this time to exercise you well."
"Why should I follow your dictate?" Li Xuefei glared at me reluctantly.
"I'm the commander of this operation!" I raised my eyebrows at her, a little arrogant: "You have now become our team's oil bottle, don't you feel glorious to be a oil bottle?" You must be self-motivated, and strive not to lag behind as soon as possible! β
"You're the oil bottle!" Li Xuefei pouted, but she was a little unreasonable, and her confidence was not very strong.
The sixth man on the side watched silently, and when he saw that it was about to turn into a fight, he hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Miss, your body is indeed a little weak, just listen to Yin Ran, starting tomorrow, you have to start exercising." β
"Uncle Six, won't you speak for me?" Li Xuefei was a little aggrieved, and in the end she could only vent her anger at the food on the table, like an angry little girl, which made people laugh.
The fitness plan for Li Xuefei was preliminarily formulated, and we decided to try mountaineering tomorrow and try skiing if we have time.
The next morning, I took the sixth and five or six of my men to the nearest ski resort.
The ski slopes here are pure and natural, and the entire slope can be climbed by gondola or on foot.
However, in order to exercise Li Xuefei, we naturally chose to walk on foot.
Li Xuefei was wearing a thick mountaineering suit, and before she had walked a third of the way, she was too tired to walk, which was completely different from the arrogance she had released before.
"No, no, I'm tired." This chick directly played a scoundrel, sat on the ground, and refused to climb the mountain even if she was killed.
The snow here is very deep, and it is not realistic to carry her forward, so in the end I have to choose the same way to return, and the mountaineering training is not clear.
On the way back, I reprimanded extremely speechlessly: "And said that you are not a drag oil bottle, you terrible appearance, don't want to get rid of this title for the rest of your life." β
Li Xuefei pouted, but she didn't refute what I said, and her expression looked a little frustrated.
Seeing that she has a good attitude of admitting her mistakes, I don't have much to say, and if I take Li Xuefei over to see No. 8 when the time comes, I have to choose other modes of transportation, and it is not realistic to travel on foot.
As we were returning to the town, I was surprised to find another uniformly dressed group, about twenty people, passing us by and heading out of town.
I didn't pay much attention to it at first, after all, there are often groups of climbers from all over the world, and it's not surprising to see the occasional uniformly dressed group.
But the point is that this team is very different from ordinary mountaineering teams, everyone is very burly, and when they walk, their expressions are very strict, unlike ordinary mountaineering teams.
"Don't you think that team just now is a little strange?" I frowned and asked the sixth who was sitting next to me.
The sixth man was snorting at this time, not knowing what he was sniffing, like a military dog, which made people laugh.
I saw that his expression was solemn, and his tone was quite strange: "I smell a familiar smell, this group of people has definitely seen it in other places, and it left a deep impression on me!" β
Hearing him answer, a few black lines suddenly appeared on my forehead, and I said angrily: "Are you a dog, you can sniff this?" β
The sixth child was not ashamed, but felt very glorious, and said to me loudly: "This is my specialty, it's too late for you to envy!" Let's get to the point, I've definitely dealt with the team that passed us by before, but they're all so face-to-face, I really can't think of who they are! β
Seeing that his face was solemn, not like he was joking, I couldn't help but start to take the matter seriously.
Is it just a coincidence to see such a special team at this special time node, and in this special place?
I've never believed in coincidences, and now I'm squinting and my brain is racing.
"You say, which force is this team most likely to belong to?" I held my chin and said to myself.
In the SUV, everyone was silent, their eyes flashing to think about this most critical issue.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through my mind, and I thought of a vague force.
"Do you think that Thomas's news has been leaked, and not only we know about his deposits, but others may also know?"
When the sixth heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, and then his face became more solemn than ever: "You mean, this team is from the Wallace family?" β
As he spoke, he seemed to remember something important, his eyes suddenly widened, and then he punched himself, with a look of sudden realization: "No wonder I think this smell is so familiar, I remember where I smelled it!" β
As soon as he said this, I also became interested, and couldn't help asking, "Where is it?" β
The sixth didn't say it directly, but continued to ask: "Do you remember when Li Yiming was arrested, a group of mysterious armed forces helped him successfully escape from prison?" β
As soon as he said this, I instantly understood, and now I already know that Li Yiming was saved by the Wallace family, and when the sixth child said this, then my thoughts were confirmed!
"That's right, that mysterious armed force is actually from the Wallace family, you mean, the person who passed by us just now emitted the same smell as the person who rescued Li Yiming?" I asked, wide-eyed.
The sixth nodded, and was quite excited: "When Li Yiming escaped from prison, I was responsible for organizing people to arrest him, so I deliberately paid attention to all the special suspicious smells, and I was very impressed, this thing must not be wrong." The people who passed by us were the same people who helped Li Yiming escape from prison. β
At this time, my eyes had narrowed, and I said in a somewhat uneasy tone: "It seems that the news of Thomas's deposit has been known by the Wallace family, and they have now sent people to start searching for Thomas's whereabouts!" β
"This is definitely not good news for us, but fortunately we got in touch with Thomas's subordinates in advance and got ahead of them."
I said to myself that I wanted to go back to the hotel at once, organize the manpower, and hurry to the residence of No. 8 to convey the news to him.
"It's still early, organize people and go into the mountain with me!" I instructed the sixth to gather the people.
But I have a bit of a headache, according to the character of the eight, if we pass with such fanfare, will he believe it?
But in order to ensure safety, people must be brought over, and who knows if there will be an accident on the way.
"That No. 8 is suspicious by nature, he probably won't believe it, how can he do it?" I held my chin, thinking about what to do, and then sighed: "This is also a last resort, and in order to see Thomas as much as possible, I can only take this strategy." β
