After walking around the yard for a while, Chu Tianjiang accompanied Clara to the back garden.

The back garden is small and used to be a utility yard for piling up construction waste. Clara likes to be quiet, and when Chu Tianjiang and Nichol are not there, they also like to be alone. During Chu Tianjiang's trip to Houston, the maids who stayed behind cleaned up the back garden, planted some flowers and plants, brought some potted plants, and raised a tank of goldfish. Although it is small in size, it is more secluded and elegant than the front courtyard.

"Are you thirsty, what do you want to drink?"

"Don't worry about such a trivial matter, just sit back and rest for a while." Clara grabbed Chu Tianjiang's hand and sat him down, then nodded to Angelina, who had been with her. After a few days together, Angelina already knows Clara's habits very well.

Chu Tianjiang is not very accustomed to this kind of life of a group of maids, and he is still used to doing many things himself. He never treated Angelina and the young women selected from the legion as handmaidens, and not only did he rarely tell them to do this or that, but he also gave them enough respect. Chu Tianjiang had already made a rule that any maid could leave the academy at any time and return to serve in the legion, or find another way.

Clara is not only very adaptable to this kind of life, but also enjoys it.

When Angelina walked away, Clara said, "Do you think Christopher is genuinely inviting you to join the Jewish group?" ”

"What do you say?" Chu Tianjiang had already guessed why Clara wanted to bring him to the back garden.

"I think you should have more eyes."

"Not only to have one more mind, but also to be more guarded."

"Oh?" Although Chu Tianjiang looked like he was in his chest, Clara was still a little worried.

"If I say yes right away, then joining the Jewish bloc and replacing Monica as a rabbi is a sure thing. But instead of saying yes immediately, I offered to give a reply in three days, and even though Christopher tried to woo me, things got more complicated. ”

"How complicated?"

"Christopher is just a mouthful, and it was Stephani who really invited me."

"What's your relationship with Stephanie?"

Chu Tianjiang sighed and told the story of taking Nicol and the others to the Alamos laboratory in the first place, focusing on the relationship between Stephani and Williams.

"So, she's going to hate you to death."

"For what?"

"Because you've not only ruined decades of her hard work, you've also ruined her hopes."

"But I didn't kill her, so she got a chance to make a comeback, and she didn't necessarily know that I was alive before we came to the United States."

"You think she won't hate you?"

"At least not as strongly as you say."

Clara smiled and said, "What do you want me to say, you guy?" Stephani is a woman, even if it is not a small woman like us, but a strong woman who focuses on her career, she is also a woman, and she has characteristics that women have in common, such as being particularly easy to hold a grudge against a man who has hurt her. Not to mention just a few months, even if a few years or even decades have passed, it may not be able to let her go. ”

Chu Tianjiang was secretly shocked and remembered the dirty things between Stephani and Nicholas.

"If you hadn't come to the United States as Chu Tianjiang, that is, Stephanie thought you died on St. Matthew's Island, maybe she would have gradually forgotten you and forgotten her hatred for you. Now, you came to the United States as your true face, and you are openly moving around as Chu Tianjiang, do you think she will forget you? ”

"At that time, my identity was Yan Wenbin."

"She doesn't know that you are Chu Tianjiang?"

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "I didn't tell her, I didn't even tell Nicol at that time. It wasn't until I killed Williams that I told Nichole about them, and sisters Melanie and Natasha. After that, we went back to China, so she shouldn't know that Yan Wenbin was me. ”

Clara thought for a moment and said, "Even so, you still can't take it lightly. ”

"For what?"

"Even if she doesn't know that you are Yan Wenbin, she must know that Yan Wenbin is an agent of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and your current identity has been revealed."

"You're saying she already knows I'm someone from Military Intelligence?"

Clara nodded and said, "You have already identified yourself to Craig and Zhong Heng, even if they can both be trusted, what you are doing now is enough to prove that you are serving China and preparing for the Chinese army to conquer the Midwest of the United States, so she must know that you are doing things for the Military Intelligence Bureau." ”

"Wait!" Chu Tianjiang rubbed his forehead vigorously.

"What's wrong?" Clara thought Chu Tianjiang was a little uncomfortable.

"Perhaps, she already knows that I am Yan Wenbin."

"For what?"

"At the time, she knew I had superpowers, and she set a trap against me and Nichol. In desperation, I desperately tried to save Nichol, but I couldn't save Rachel and them. Later, I infiltrated the lab and tried to get Rachel and the others out, only to meet Williams, who took us to St. Matthew's Island. With Melanie and Natasha's help, I rescued Rachel and her children on the island and reformed them. After that, we eliminated Williams' X-Warrior legion, killed Williams, and also destroyed the undersea base. After we left St. Matthew's Island, a group of X-Warriors who escaped went up to the island, Perry's men. Chu Tianjiang paused for a moment and said, "Whether Stephanie thinks I'm the only remaining doomsday warrior or knows that I'm an energy person, she can guess that Yan Wenbin is Chu Tianjiang." ”

Clara furrowed her brows and pondered for a moment before she said, "In that case, there is no reason for Stephanie to invite you to join the Jewish group. ”

"You mean, it's a trap?"

"If Monica hadn't died, it wouldn't have been Christopher, but the six rabbis, and their guards." Clara let out a long breath and said, "Stephanie must have known that Yan Wenbin was you, but she didn't know that you were an energy person, so after we left Salt Lake City, she sent a legion over. The Legion didn't attack us, just blocked us on the west bank of the Green River, and although it was a bit unreasonable, there must be some reason that could not be ignored, such as that she didn't know your strength very well. ”

"Perhaps, she needs that time."

"What?"

"The commander of that legion said that his mission was only to hold us off for a month."

Clara was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "If your guess is correct, Stephani must have a grand plan." That's the main reason she didn't want us to come to Denver, and didn't deal with us immediately after we got to Lakewood, or even let the rabbi join forces against us. ”

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "All she needs is a month." ”

"It's been half a month since we crossed the Green River."

"She still needs half a month."

"So she put Monica on us first, hoping to get rid of us in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, Monica didn't get rid of us, you killed us. In order to buy this half a month, Stephanie began to woo you, and only then sent Christopher. ”

"Why didn't she come forward in person?"

"Stupid!" Clara walked over and gently rubbed Chu Tianjiang's face. "She already knew that you were the original Yan Wenbin, how could you come forward in person? Don't forget, you know from Zhong Heng that she is the Grand Rabbi of the Jewish Bloc, and she obviously thinks that you don't know that the Grand Rabbi is her, and if she appears in front of you, even if she has changed her appearance, she may be recognized by you. Besides, if that grand plan is crucial, I'm afraid she won't have much time to entertain you, a guy who is destined to die in Denver. ”

"We must not allow her to succeed."

"Then, she won't let us go."

"You mean ......"

"Don't you think there's a problem with giving a formal reply three days after you asked, and without mentioning what the reply was?"

"This ......"

"The situation looks confusing, but one thing is for sure."

"What?"

"In three days, you're going to Denver, and you're going to take Nichole with you."

Chu Tianjiang frowned and said, "I'm not going to negotiate with Stephani, but to catch them all, and I will definitely bring Nicol and them." ”

"So, who's going to stay here?"

"This ......"

"Don't forget, you've already sent the three Andrei brothers away. Although Connie's legion has begun to take shape, and the training is almost complete, they are just ordinary people, not only are they not the opponents of the rabbis, nor are they the opponents of the X-soldiers, and the only one who can stay is Zhong Ruirui, but she alone cannot resist hundreds of enemies, and it will be nice to be able to protect me and escape when the time comes. Clara sighed, "Lakewood is our only foundation. Stephanie can uproot us if he takes this opportunity, and even if you kill her and the other five rabbis, you may not be able to control Denver. Don't forget, Kansas City has a force to be reckoned with. ”

"Then I'll leave Nicol and them behind."

"It's a solution, the question is, if you don't take Nicol and them to Denver, what will Stephani think, and what will he do?"

"This ......"

"If I were her, I'd wait until Lakewood's battle is over before I come out to see you. Unfortunately, with Nicol and the others behind, the sneak attack on Lakewood would definitely fail. After receiving the bad news, Stephanie's first choice was to flee Denver. ”

"So what to do?"

"Perhaps, you have to seriously think about increasing the size of your team several times before the decisive battle with Stephany." Clara smiled and said, "Of course, it's not just about recruiting female members. ”

Chu Tianjiang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly.
