Chapter 576: The curtain opens
"Damn it! Who does this idiot think he is?! Did he think we really wouldn't dare to do anything to him?! In the carriage, the thin old man was furious and scolded: "This damn pig, has he forgotten that he was able to inherit his father's family business because of our help?!" โ
Figory silently hung up the phone, but didn't say a word. He also vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but he didn't have the courage to correct it. The people around him would not allow him to correct these mistakes. Even looking for Granval was the result of his persistence.
"I said from the beginning, this damn pig can't be trusted! What we have to do is kill him and then take over the area of influence he left behind as quickly as possible. If we had done this earlier...... "A big, fat, half-bald old man babbled grimly.
Figory remained silent. He was a little desperate now, not because of the raven, not because of Grandwal's departure. He has gradually understood one thing, his people have come to this point. The worst enemy is not the crow. It's themselves!
Without Granwal, who would be able to contact the service provider and make them willing to provide the coordinates of the crow?! Are these old immortals who are talking about killing Granwal right now?! Apparently not. They don't have the brain, and they don't think about their own interests.
They're greedy, they're too greedy. Figory suddenly remembered the famous words of the ancient Greek tragic writer Eutilpides: "If God wants to destroy it, he must first make it mad." Yes, they have gone crazy now. Figory could even see the scarlet in the eyes of his decrepit companions.
He could see that the men were already victorious, but they quietly aimed their swords at each other, preparing to stab the other companions to death, allowing them to take all the benefits. Figory even speculated about the past where they had almost everything they could ask for. Is it the result of crow indulgence?!
When he thought of this, Figol suddenly shuddered. It occurred to him that it seemed that Grandval had not known what he had been doing all these years. He doesn't seem to have much interest in running most of the family's traditional confines, and doesn't have a dedicated support for his cronies. I haven't heard of any major moves.
However, it was in this silence that he actually completed the change of power without any sound. At least for now, he didn't hesitate to withdraw the teams fighting in the forest as soon as he gave the order. This is a great indication of his control.
The flare, Figory thought was something that Granval had prepared. As soon as things go wrong, then withdrawing without hesitation will become his option......
"If God wants to destroy it, he must first make it crazy......" In Paris at night, there are few pedestrians on the streets. A lesser-known but very historic hotel in the Old Town is closing its doors today. Unlike many famous hotels, this hotel has some picture frames in the restaurant.
In the picture frame are famous people who come and go to eat here. The hotel has always been just a few famous paintings, and if anyone notices the small print on them, they will see that the owners of these paintings specially painted them as gifts to this hotel.
Now the hotel is completely emptied, and there is a "temporarily closed" sign hanging outside. But in reality, there are still waiters serving a table of customers in the store. Or rather, a guest. And this attendant is the current head of the Celestian family and the current direct leader of the Legion - Benoรฎt Celex!
If someone sees the person he is serving, it will be even more shocking! Because...... He was serving an Asian face!
"You can be at the same table with me, there is no need to be a waiter." The man with the Asian face said in a hoarse voice, and said to Benoit with a helpless smile: "I'm not the kind of person who has to be served, and it's good that the two of us just sit and talk." โ
But Benoit shook his head firmly: "No, you are worthy of my service." Whether it's as a junior, or what you've done to the Ciliex. As Lisa's older brother, of course. I need to thank you even more. โ
"You recommended me a good brother-in-law." Hearing Benoit's words, the man suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahaha...... Benoit, little one! I've finally grown up and know how to use words to hold me, right?! You can rest assured that your brother-in-law will not have a problem. โ
Seeing that the man paused, he smiled and continued: "I left them a lot of things, if the strength of a jackal can't even withstand those wine bags and rice bags." There's no need for that anymore. As for your brother-in-law...... All I can say is that I believe he will come out of it. โ
There was a rain of bullets on the battlefield, and no one dared to say that they would definitely survive. In other words, let someone absolutely survive. Especially Hou Dasheng, those who are fighting on the front line, face even higher risks. One bullet is enough to kill.
Being able to make this promise seems to be the limit of this man. Benoit owes a debt very well: "I am relieved to have your words......"
Benoit was proud, but he never dared to look at the man in front of him. Although he rarely came to see him, and even many times he would not say a word to him when he was in Paris. But as long as the man said it, Benoit would do everything in his power to do it for him.
Others don't know about this man's energy, but Benoit knows it firsthand. Once, how was he able to survive safely surrounded by wolves after the death of his parents and inherited the family property. In addition to the support given by the Legion, the support given by this man is the most important.
The "relatives" who tried to steal the family property and kill the Benoit siblings all disappeared after giving birth to this idea and making certain moves.
"I will protect you until you are 18 years old, as your father once asked me to behold. I promised him. "Benoit didn't see this man until he was 18 years old. It wasn't until he was eighteen years old that he actually met this man. only to know that he had always been under his protection.
In those uncertain times, Benoit was forced to keep learning and arming himself. And he always gets a lot of help "at the right time". When he wanted to develop his martial arts, he could easily find a professional. These professionals were extremely responsible in helping him build up his armament.
When he wants to make a difference financially, there will be professionals who will give him reasonable advice and teach him all aspects of knowledge. The old housekeeper of the family will conscientiously take his little master to learn how to deal with those complex networks, how to deal with bribery and betrayal.
The connections left by the Cilliax family were gradually taken over by him. When he was eighteen years old, although he had not yet reached the level of full-fledged wings. But there is already enough self-protection. Of course, more importantly, the people who had the ambition to do something disappeared.
This almost left Benoit with a huge amount of room to play, allowing him to freely splash ink on a near-blank sheet of paper to carry out his wishes.
"After the age of 18, you need to walk on your own. I will save you three times, but only three times. And before I was. At that time, the man looked at him with a smile. On that day, Benoit remembers wearing a tuxedo.
The butler took a brown paper bag and poured out a large pile of documents, photographs, and other materials. These are silent illustrations of how this man protected him until he was 18 years old. Those materials also proved that this man could save him three times. Because, before this, this man had saved him many times.
"You're lucky, I haven't been killed in all the years you've been growing up. So I am able to fulfill my promise to your father, just as your father fulfilled his promise to me. The man didn't say anything to Benoit, he just stood up and patted Benoit on the shoulder: "Little one, live well." โ
With that, the man disappeared accompanied by the butler. When Benoit was twenty years old, he saw the man again. This time, the man was present at a meeting of the Legion. At that meeting, he didn't say a word. But Benoit was able to inherit the position left by the ancestors of the Ciliax family.
It wasn't until much later that Benoit learned that the man's name was Raven. It doesn't matter what his real name is. Importantly, he is a crow. His words can make a beggar get countless resources and become a hegemon. His words can also make a small country directly subverted.
"After tonight, Europe will be renewed. Actually, I've wanted to do this for a long time. Unfortunately, I wasn't the right person to do it at that time. "Yes, it is the raven that sits before Benoit. Figolis was the raven they wanted so badly to kill.
The crow that filled them with despair, fear, and terrified them. He was now in front of Benoit, took out a pocket watch and looked at it: "You can start." Let them perform. I'll look at ......."
"Sir, some of them have gone to Huaxia......" Benoit hesitated for a moment and said softly. When the crow heard this, he just smiled faintly: "Don't worry, someone will help us deal with these things." We just need to take care of what's happening here......"
In a country in Southeast Asia, Coke answered the mobile phone but broke out in a cold sweat. Quite simply, the message in my hand was terrible.
"All of them have been denied visas and now they are on their way back. I don't know why, I don't know what went wrong. But all of them were denied visas! Listening to the voice on the phone, Coke didn't dare to move in the slightest. Because, he has a Glock 17 on the back of his head.
At his feet, a corpse was still bleeding. And several men in front of him wearing black combat uniforms, tactical vests, and black hoods were holding MPA3s in their hands, and the muzzles of guns were pointed at his head intentionally or unintentionally.
"Got it, I'll send it back first......" Coke said calmly, and then hung up the phone. Of course, he wisely chose to go hands-free the whole time, so that everyone in the room could hear what he was saying. Placing the phone on the table, Coke raised his hands and put them on the back of his head without commanding.
This is a standard move. Under this action, he will not be in danger of being shot.
"Very well, sir. You are very cooperative, I like it. I hope you will continue to work with us, it will be beneficial for both of us. From behind Coke, a voice came: "Now, stand up." Slowly, remember to ...... slowly"
Coke was obedient, and he felt the chair behind him being removed as soon as he stood up. After he stood up, the voice gave another command: "Lean against the wall and walk slowly." That's right, that's it. I'm sure you can see that we don't want to kill people if we don't have to. โ
Of course, Coke saw it, so he wisely didn't choose to resist. These people are good hands, and they have been in battle for a long time. When a stun bomb exploded, he was the only one left when Coke regained consciousness. The firearm has been removed.
If it hadn't been for the phone ringing at that time, he would have been searched more closely. Obviously, these people feel that Coke is very unsafe. So they're going to search it again.
"Alright, your password could have been handed over." After a search for Coke, he was reversed. His hands were wrapped in scotch tape, and his feet were wrapped several times. Coke didn't mess around, and said directly: "The code is agreed, I can tell you." The codebook is in the third drawer under the desk. โ
If it had been a few years ago, Coke might have stayed up with torture and said nothing. Because, at that time he was in service. But now, Coke is not in the service of his homeland. Even the team members around him don't have much contact. In this case, Cola did not think it was necessary for him to be tortured.
They didn't torture Coke and didn't say anything to him. Coke's head was covered and placed on the ground. Coke continued to be very sensibly immobile. Then I honestly told all the contact codes. After a long time, he was mentioned: "It seems that you are really very cooperative, and we have verified what you said." All correct. โ
"I just want one thing: my family is safe." Cola whispered, "I don't want to know where you're from, and I'll be very cooperative if I don't exist." I only ask for one thing: don't disturb my family. Let them spend the rest of their lives safely......"
After listening to Coke's words, the voice whispered comfortingly, "You can rest assured about this. This will soon be over. When the time comes, you can travel to Europe and spend the rest of your life with your family. Of course, I know you don't want to have anything to do with us. Actually, that's what we think......"
