Chapter 227: One Hundred Singles and Eight in the Face of Floods (3)
"Thank you, thank you for giving them a way to live." The general said sincerely, the gloom on his face dissipated a little, revealing a clear smile like a ray of sunshine.
"It's not me, it's you. If you give them a chance to live, they will have the life to continue to live in Dunhuang. Otherwise, the Fifth House of the City, that time, they have been-" I didn't continue.
On the seventh floor of the Fifth Municipal Hospital, I joined forces with the general, and it was easy to kill Cha Ye and others. However, instead of killing, we took advantage of the chaos to kidnap Zhao Tan.
At the end of the day, I'm not a murderous person, unlike many people in the world.
"I always felt that it was not up to me to deprive another person of his rights." The general said.
I smiled and nodded, reluctant to continue the conversation.
Cha Ye is a dangerous person, and I suspect that his ambition is enough to exceed his IQ.
After only three cups of tea, Cha Ye really came as scheduled, and brought with him a person who made the general's face change in an instant.
It was a well-dressed young man, no more than thirty years old, with a short beard and brown sunglasses perched on the bridge of his nose.
He was carrying a coffee-colored briefcase in his hand, heavy, and it should have a laptop inside.
Without waiting for Zha Ye to speak, the young man greeted the general first: "General, it's been a long time." β
"It turns out that you were in room 701 of the Fifth Municipal Courtyard at the time?" The general gasped, and the expression on his face was about to cry without tears.
"Yes." The young man shrugged, "I was there. Cha Ye said that there is a large amount of unowned money, as long as you participate, you can get 100 million. I thought about it, and since the yellow flower would fall, I didn't need to hang myself from a tree, so I agreed. Now, all the footholds of the Yellow Flower Society in Dunhuang are backwater, and I will inform you, lest you still have hope and treat every contact point as a lifesaver. β
At that time, I helped the takeaway brother pick up things, and I asked for a total of five suppers in room 701, which happened to correspond to Cha Ye, Aunt Cha, Lao Sheng, Zhao Tan and young men.
"I'm Tang Hui, the electronic information manager of the Yellow Flower Society in Asia. However, that is in the past, a new page has been turned, and I am now a freelancer and an expert in electronic management, and I hope to have the opportunity to work with Mr. Long. "The young man held out his hand to me.
As a courtesy, I extended my right hand to shake him.
Tang Hui is a sunny and fashionable person with a hearty conversation, and I don't doubt that he will do anything as soon as they meet, so he immediately fell into the trap of the other party.
With a click, a steel ring popped out of the sleeve of his designer suit, and landed on my right wrist through our clenched hands, and then tightened, stucking my wrist bone.
"Don't move, this kind of thing is called a 'parting hook', just listen to the literal meaning, if you want to move, your right hand will be separated from your right arm." Tang Hui smiled smugly, "I like Master Gu Long's novels, so I have a lot of experience with his book "Seven Weapons". β
He let go slowly, and I spread my fingers and let him pull my hand back.
"Cha Ye said that the general fell in love with Mr. Long, so I can only come up with this kind of obscene idea to fight snakes and seven inches. I've checked Mr. Long's information, and if I fight head-on, I can't beat Mr. Long out of ten. So, sorry, sorry. Tang Hui bowed his hand to me.
"Zhao Tan is in the house, we are not interested in money, the Yellow Flower Society has fallen, and no one will take the initiative to pursue anything you have done - is this okay?" The general asked.
People and money are pursued by Cha Ye and others, and the general took the initiative to give up, which was exactly the move of the soldiers to seek peace under the city.
"No, no." Tang Hui shook his head and raised the bag he was carrying in his left hand, "In this, there is the general who is about to launch a cross-border operation, as long as it is complete, it can be worth hundreds of millions." Or, resell it to the Great Emperor of the North, it will be worth more. No one can stay out of the matter, as soon as the yellow flower falls, everyone's fate gears will begin to slowly turn. Youβall of you are in my calculations, including Mr. Long. β
There was movement in the house, and I couldn't look back, but I could figure it out, only Aunt Cha didn't show up among the five people, and she must have sneaked in from the backyard and controlled Zhao Tan.
"Have you ever thought that I would kill you with my left hand instead of my right hand?" I asked.
"Why did you kill me?" Tang Hui raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly, "This is a deal, I am just an intelligence broker, and I don't bear anyone's values, worldview, or outlook on life." I will never kill you, but with the help of the presence of all, to maximize the benefits. Mr. Long, think about it, you are not a killer, and you will never kill a stranger you just met. If you kill me, the general's life will lose some interesting changes, and he can only go one way to the dark. β
"He's a hacker, he's a helper." The general lamented.
"Without him, the head swap can't be carried out?" I asked.
The general nodded: "Yes, all the information is in his network terminal hub." It seems that there was a big problem with the previous selection mechanism of the Yellow Flower Society, and it did not choose the right person, especially at key nodes. β
I also sighed for the Yellow Flower Society, as soon as the big tree fell, all the monkeys did not disperse, but devoured the tree, and regarded the big tree that they lived in as a cash cow.
"I'm a hacker, you're a variable. As a rule, in order to stabilize things, you must first lock down the variables and reduce unnecessary changes. You know, every time you add one more digit, the variable will be nine times the original value, and so on, and so on, endlessly. Now, to put it simply, you're the 'single digit' and I have to lock you in and let the value change stay where it is. Tang Hui said.
I don't pay attention to these physical terms, but I understand that I am indeed the biggest variable in this battle of Dunhuang.
When all the gangs customized the Dunhuang plan, they did not take my presence into account. Some gangs knew I existed, but they didn't count me.
In the eyes of the world, I have retired and become an idle painter, without going through the ritual of "washing hands in a golden basin", but the fact that "washing hands in a golden basin" has been created.
Once I got involved, it became a variable that the gangs didn't expect.
For example, if it weren't for my desperate resistance, Zuo Fengshou's "Gu Refiner's Spear" might have pierced through the door of the "Jinshan Yinhai Jade Palace" and drove straight into it, taking the lead.
For example, now, if I hadn't been there, the general would have gone east to Japan a long time ago, and he would not have obstructed Zhao Tan's actions, let alone punctured the dream of making a fortune for Zha Ye and others.
"Yun has no intention of going out." I say.
Tang Hui smiled exaggeratedly: "Haha, Mr. Long is an interesting person, he has no intention in his mouth, but he has an intention in his heart. You like Miss Gu, right? β
He suddenly mentioned Gu Qingcheng, which made me immediately alert.
"It's just friends, everyone is from Hong Kong Island, and when we meet in Dunhuang, we will naturally have a sense of intimacy." I replied.
Tang Hui shook his head: "I have a different opinion, after Mr. Long met Miss Gu, he immediately inquired about her information, and by the way, checked the business areas of Mr. Gu Tianguo and the Gu family. Miss Gu was traveling with Miss Mingshuisleeve at that time, so Mr. Long also checked a lot of Mingshuisleeve, the First Battle of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng's capture of the capital, and Zhang Xianzhong's rebel army...... And so on and so forth, a series of materials. I've monitored all of this. Mr. Long probably didn't expect someone to pay so much attention to you, so he was a little careless in this regard. I am a hacker, an information dispatcher, a compiler of all action plans, and a lookout post for the Yellow Flower Society in Asia...... I could only become more vigilant every day, forcing myself to sleep only one hour a day, and even during this hour, I kept one eye open and one eye closed. Haha, just kidding, Mr. Long don't mind. I'm guessing you'll also be interested in my background and possibly look it up on the dark web. However, I advise you not to bother, because I have no background information, and I have long since erased it, just like many people in this world who have been prepared, hiding themselves from birth and living like air. I'm standing here, you all know I'm Tang Hui, but when I turned around and leftβwho was Tang Hui? Sorry, I'm Air, because in the field of the dark web, my network code name is 'Air', for example, the last time, when I sent you paid information, the code name I used was 'Air', remember? β
I felt like my cheeks were hot, and my chest felt like two bellows, and I began to snort and gasp involuntarily.
The other party knows me, but I don't know anything about the other person.
The dark web, which I relied on as a secret source, was not taken seriously by the other party at all.
"Tang Hui" is a very common name, and there are tens of thousands of "Tang Hui" in the global Chinese population. The man standing in front of me had an ordinary name, but he was doing the most unfathomable work.
"Okay, what conditions do you have to take off this handcuff?" I asked.
Tang Hui nodded: "Very good, very good, it seems that Mr. Long has fully understood what I said, and he is also very willing to reach some degree of reconciliation and cooperation." It's very simple, I want to ask Mr. Long for a favor, an ordinary person who is unwilling and Mr. Long may readily agree...... Busy, is that okay? β
"Trying to blackmail me?" I asked.
"Yes, it's a coercion, but also an invitation, because this is very interesting, and while helping, Mr. Long can also get some urgently needed information, such as the eight words 'open in the face of floods, one hundred orders and eight', which are the most confusing to you now." Tang Hui looked directly at me, his gaze like a torch, scanning up and down my face.
I was indeed confused by these eight words, and I was also anxious about the things that Zhao Tan described during the polygraph test.
The excavation of the tomb of the Oda ghost slave was very important, but Zhao Tan's words were very incoherent, and the most important details were all broken sentences that did not match the preface.
I wish I could get into his head and dig out all the real situation and put it on the table, so that I could see it clearly.
Just listening to Zhao Tan's chaotic description, it is really uncomfortable to scratch the boots.
"Mr. Long, don't listen to him, don't be tempted, he is an extremely dangerous person......" the general suddenly shouted.
I snapped into the fire: "Oh no, I'm already tempted." β
Tang Hui's insight and analysis are too strong, even if I try to hide my emotions now, it will be too late.
"It's not me who makes you tempted, but you move yourself. My existence is only to create conditions to better satisfy everyone's desires. Tang Hui smiled.
"At the Yellow Flower Society, his nickname is '*'." The general added.
Tang Hui narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully: "Yes, the general is right, my nickname is indeed '*'." As the proverb goes, a key opens a lock. My key can open any lock in the world, and it comes with a function that can only be upgraded, from one person's heart lock to another's, so it can be opened without restrictions and at multiple levels, like a web crawler released by the famous Google search engine, crawling along the human interpersonal network, crawling into everyone's heart......"
