Chapter 108: The Substitute - Lawn
"What location?"
Ronan could probably guess what Raune was thinking at this time, for him, whether Ronan explained it or not, the nature of this organization had nothing to do with him, and there was only one thing he wanted to know, that is, how much Ronan occupied in this organization, or what kind of role Ronan played in this organization.
"I'm the head."
Smiling and staring at Lawn, Ronan pondered for a moment before opening his mouth to respond: "Equivalent to the brain of AOA, I am responsible for building the future blueprint and specific development path for the entire organization, as for how to develop and how to implement the development route, it has almost nothing to do with me." ”
As he spoke, Ronan glanced at Lawn, suddenly turned and walked towards the stairs, and as he walked towards the stairs, he continued:
"I'm a decision-maker, and I influence every initiative of AOA, but it doesn't really have much to do with me. I just sat back and watched everything start and end, and if it wasn't for the fact that I had to save it, I would have kept it that way. Lawn ......"
"Old man......"
Ronan's voice was mixed with the sound of slight footsteps, and Lawn watched his back silently until Ronan suddenly called out to him, he suddenly woke up, and subconsciously responded, "What's the matter?" ”
"Prepare well tonight, and from tomorrow you will be like lifting the veil from a strange woman......"
As he reached the top of the stairs, Ronan paused, smiled faintly, and turned to look back at Lawn, "See what a new world is all about." ”
As soon as the words fell, Ronan quickly turned his head and quickly climbed to the second floor of the villa, disappearing into Lawne's eyes in a blink of an eye.
…………
The next morning, neither Ronan nor Lawn left after breakfast, and they sat on the sofa in the living room, keeping quiet with each other.
Ronan leaned back on the couch, an unspread newspaper covering his face and upper body. Lawn, on the other hand, savored a cup of coffee, but the movement of his hand to look at his watch from time to time was a sign that he seemed to be waiting for something.
After the coffee was drunk, Lawne got up and went to the table to refill the glass, while Ronan was still quietly reading the newspaper.
But just as Lawne poured his coffee, walked to the sofa and was about to sit down, he saw Ronan suddenly fold the newspaper in his hand and put it aside, looked at Lawn, and opened his mouth to say: "Lawn, it's time." ”
"When~~~"
As Ronan's voice fell, the sound of a French bronze enamel clock hanging above the fireplace was heard.
Loun looked up and saw that the hour hand on the fireplace clock was pointing to the left toward nine o'clock. When Lawne quickly stood up, Ronan also looked up to meet him, and said again, "You should go." ”
"Hmm."
Lawne replied lightly, just glanced at Ronan, and immediately turned and walked out the door.
Hearing the sound of Lawn's footsteps fading away, Ronan picked up the stack of newspapers beside him, and immediately stood up, put the newspapers on the newspaper shelf, and pushed open the fireplace and walked into the elevator inside.
…………
Lawne left the secret passage of St. Missie's estate and drove nearly an hour to a more modest manor-style villa on the outskirts of New York.
After getting out of the car, Lawne saw four large white men standing at the gate of the manor at first glance.
When Lawne approached, two of the white men turned and opened the gate of the manor, while the other two reached out and motioned for him to continue inside.
Raun didn't look at them too much, and walked briskly towards the lonely little cottage in the middle of the manor.
But just as Lawne paused in front of the villa and was about to stretch out his hand to push the door open, the door of the villa suddenly opened by itself, and a black man wearing a long black leather coat and a pair of sunglasses walked out of it and stood in front of Lawn.
The black man was about the same height as Lawne, but he was much more burly, and he first looked at Lawne with a scrutinizing gaze before introducing himself, "I'm Blade." ”
"Lorne Boers." Lawne smiled in response, holding out a hand.
"Follow me."
But the black man Blade only glanced at him, and did not reach out to shake him, but after saying a cold word, he quickly turned around and walked into the villa.
Lawne did not show any displeasure, nor did he hesitate, and immediately stepped forward to follow.
When the two of them walked into the hall of the villa one after another, the door suddenly closed by itself, and Lawne did not turn his head, still staring at the black man blade in front of him.
Blade suddenly stopped before coming to an area similar to an LCD screen in the center of the hall, and tapped the metal watch on his left wrist, and then the LCD screen that was attached to the ground suddenly split to the sides, and a box-like metal elevator rose from below.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, Lawne walked in right behind Blade.
The elevator descended at high speed for nearly a minute before coming to a slam stop, and when the elevator doors opened, a large laboratory of at least thousands of square meters came into Laune's eyes, and dozens of researchers in white antibacterial suits were scattered around the various test benches, as if they were busy with something.
But when the elevator stopped, Blade, who was standing in front of Lawne, did not walk out, but took out a small black box from his leather pocket and placed it on the laboratory floor, and when he got up, the elevator door closed again, and the elevator fell again.
There was silence for tens of meters and seconds, and the black man Blade didn't even turn his head to look back at Lawne.
It wasn't until the elevator stopped again and Blade and Lawn stepped out of the elevator door one after another that Blade's slightly cold voice slowly reached Lawn's ears.
"Lorne Boers." Walking down the metal corridor, Blade suddenly whispered Lawn's name.
"What's the matter? Mr. Blade. Lawne asked.
Blade didn't respond immediately, but continued to walk forward for dozens of steps, reaching the end of the corridor before asking, "Do you know why you're here?" ”
"Why are you here?"
Blade's question made it difficult for Lawne to answer for a while, and he frowned and pondered for a long time before he replied uncertainly: "It's because of Lord Ronan Collins or your leader." Hmmm......"
As he spoke, Lawne suddenly shook his head and snorted softly, "Well, actually, even I don't know why I'm here. ”
"It's true that you don't have an exact answer in mind, or you already have an answer, but you're still wavering."
Blade suddenly turned his head and looked at Lawn, his face was the same as before, and said: "You came here, although part of it was influenced by the leader, but at that time you could have chosen to refuse him, but at that time you did not refuse, but calmly accepted his arrangement. Maybe you don't even know why you made this decision, but now ......"
"I need you to find the true answer in your heart."
Lawne frowned, his face full of puzzlement.
And when the blade's voice fell, he immediately changed his mouth and explained: "The head needs a shadow, a shadow that can appear in the sun, the head needs to rely on this shadow to do what he wants to do but can't, and needs this shadow to be exposed to the sight of everyone who cares instead of him, and you ......"
"It's his first choice."
