Chapter Twenty-Nine: Lost and Returned
Xu Zixia looked at Gao Yutian's back blankly, and the scene that Clark told him yesterday reproduced in front of him: the amount of this transaction was too large, and he naturally had to give an explanation to the "master" afterwards, and the "master" he thought was actually just an agent of Gao Yutian's company, and this agent could only contact Zhu Ba.
However, who this Zhu Ba is, Gao Yutian can't know according to the rules. Clark relied on countless invisible threads to lead and manipulate arms smuggling, big tobacco dealers, and brothels and casinos......
However, tonight, the "Black Demon King", who made it difficult for thousands of people to sleep, could not sleep. He tossed and turned, and finally got up, looked at his girlfriend Daffodil, and saw that she was sleeping peacefully, so he quietly put on a black suit, then put on a black long coat, put on a black top hat, hit the big dressing mirror up and down, pulled the brim down, felt that it was inappropriate, and took out a large mask from the cabinet and put it on, and then looked in the mirror, except for two cunning eyes, it was indeed completely changed.
Clark was satisfied, and saw that the daffodils were still sleeping soundly, so he tiptoed to the door, turned off the lights, and gently closed the door as he walked out. Clark groped out of the door of his villa, looked around at the silence, and raised his hand to look at the gold watch, which was the next point. He flipped up the collar of his coat, glanced back at the door of the villa, and hurried forward.
A wise man must make a mistake, and Clark, who is more cunning than a fox, never thought that the daffodils were not asleep. Over the years, she has gradually seen through what kind of goods Clark is. When he became her boyfriend, she was left with the image of being anxious for justice and saving people from distress long gone. So she hoped that he would be an honest real estate dealer, but she was disappointed. Although she also does not fully understand the secrets of Sassoon's life.
However, from Clark's words and deeds, he knew that he was making a fortune. She tried to dissuade her, but Clark denied it. Originally, Daffodil didn't know anything about his "career", what example could she come up with, but Clarke's estimate of Daffodil was too low, and he thought that a woman from the Chinese countryside, with today's status and such a luxurious life, should be satisfied.
However, he did not expect that the education of her rural parents not only gave her a gentle and elegant demeanor, but also gave her a thinking brain.
The calm of the sea can only be a harbinger of the coming storm. Daffodils have recently found that Clark's actions are too secretive, and his words flicker, and she has a little doubt in her heart. Today Clark is even more abnormal, not only is he not as talkative and laughing as he used to be, but he is also melancholy and impatient.
Daffodils knew that something big must have stirred up his thoughts. She didn't really fall asleep at night, and Clarke's restlessness in bed prompted her to make up her mind to observe. Even so, Clark got up and changed her clothes, and the sneaky action still surprised her. A strong curiosity, as Clarke's mysterious journey turns into an irrepressible desire, and she becomes a stalker.
When she followed Clark through a few streets, and when she saw Clark enter "Seventy-Six", she suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and her eyes were full of Venus, and if she hadn't supported the big tree on the side of the road, she would have fainted and fallen to the ground.
The daffodils finally struggled back to Clarke's villa, lying on the bed, all kinds of terrible imaginations, and finally condensed into a terrifying big word: badass!
Daffodils were desperate, she felt an eerie abyss in front of her, she rolled over and got up, opened the bedside table, and took out a bottle full of sleeping pills. Let these 100 little white pills end this humiliating life! She unscrewed the milky cap and looked up, and suddenly her pale, desperate face was reflected in the dressing mirror opposite.
A thought passed through Daffodil's heart: "I'm dead, isn't this guy still a 'big philanthropist'?" After wiping away his false tears, he can go to a woman who smells like him, and then put on a smiling face and do his sinful deeds! Despair can kill people, but hatred can give strength. My daffodils must live! ”
An hour and a half later, Clark slipped in like a ghost, changed into his pajamas in the dark, and turned on the lights. Seeing that the daffodils were still sleeping, he was relieved.
On this night, it was Clark and the daffodils who couldn't sleep peacefully around this question!
Gao Yutian was also upset, and couldn't help but think: "All the pistols have been purchased, but the Japanese army has tightly blocked the land route, and it is difficult to find suitable ships by water." The ideal is to take the opportunity of escorting the 'Clark', and the method of 'transporting guns' and 'seizing things' can kill two birds with one stone! However, there was no movement on Clark's side, and the 'tiger' did not come out of the mountain, so it was not easy to fight! ”
Yutian couldn't fall asleep, and in a hazy mood, he didn't know how much time had passed, and suddenly there was an angry shout: "Who? ”
Gao Yutian jumped up and immediately judged that it was the voice of Master and Uncle Gao Shikui who were sleeping next door. He immediately made a decision, opened the window with one palm, and jumped into the courtyard, only to see Gao Shikui raise his hand, and a cold light flew towards a black cloth close to the courtyard wall. The black-clothed man tilted his head, and the courtyard wall immediately made a sound of bricks and stones shattering. The man was unusually agile, and on one side of his body, a wire whip was in his hand.
At that time, a cold light flew towards Xu Zixia. Xu Zixia whipped the whip, and the wind was on the spot, and under the reflection of the moonlight, it formed a halo. On this basis, "dang, dang, dang" three times, the projectiles were all shot away.
Gao Yutian knew that after the master's four bullets, there was still one bullet that had not been fired, and as long as the other party was a little careless, the fourth bullet would definitely hit the vital point, known as the "life-urging pill", which was Gao Shikui's stunt to hit the rivers and lakes alone. He hurriedly shouted, "Master! ”
But as soon as Gao Shikui saw the whipping method of the person, he couldn't help but feel shocked in his heart, and the projectile's right hand suddenly drooped down, and he asked, "Who are you?" ”
Gao Yutian knew that his master had a strong personality and did not dare to slack off, so he took a step forward and was about to talk, but Xu Zixia bowed his hand and replied, "I agreed with my senior brother to have something important to report." With that, he snapped the whip back into his waist.
Gao Yutian waved his hand and said, "Please talk about it in the room!" ”
Gao Yutian entered the house with the two of them in confusion, and sat down as the guest and host.
Xu Zixia didn't wait for them to interrogate, so he said hatefully: "Clark is really a wolf-hearted brute!" The 'Clark' cabin was not filled with cement bags and medicines, but all copper and aluminum ingots! ”
Gao Yutian said: "It's not unexpected! ”
Xu Zixia glanced at him and said ashamedly: "Thanks to Brother Gao's reminder, otherwise I would have become a sinner of the nation......"
Gao Yutian said earnestly: "Clark is very cunning, and we only gradually caught his tail. ”
Gao Shikui stroked his beard and said, "Thank you, you told me the truth!" Obviously, he was deeply satisfied that Xu Zixia was able to see through Clark's false face.
Xu Zixia told them what happened. After he met Gao Yutian several times, his heart was greatly shaken, and he secretly decided to find out.
Tonight, Xu Zixia used the excuse of being unwell, returned to the guest room prepared for him by Sassoon early, changed into night clothes, and turned off the lights. When he was quieter, he quietly pushed open the window, shrugged the windowsill, gently closed the window with his backhand, and then went down to the courtyard from an elm tree near the window, went out over the wall, performed light work, and soon came to the dock.
