Volume 1 The Four Elephant Demon Palace Chapter 48 Team Doctor
When Victoria was done, she sat down across from me, and the others slowly gathered around. Li wanted to come over, because he also wanted to hear the reason, as for Victoria's team members coming over, I guess they all felt that only by staying with their captain and Victoria would they feel more secure.
Victoria began, not going straight to the point, but saying, "As you can see, we're not tomb robbers, we're mercenaries!" ”
Regarding the mercenary, Li Xiang had already guessed, and also told me, I also had some doubts, although I had been mentally prepared, but I still couldn't let go of Victoria's personal admit.
If they were tomb robbers, even if they wanted to rob the dragon spirit, it would make sense. But they are mercenaries, which means that someone hired them to come here to get dragon spirits.
They take dragon spirits just for money, and it's not as serious as Alice said.
Li Xiang and I glanced at each other, Li Xiang didn't speak, and I didn't speak, but there was a trace of disgust in my eyes, and I made up my mind that I would not give the dragon spirit to her.
And Victoria, seeing that I didn't speak, went on to say, "I'm the captain!" Phoebe is a fireman, Luna is an expert in combat, Serena is a demolition expert, and Alice is a sniper. ”
Speaking of this, Victoria listened to it, glanced at me, and I sneered and said, "I can see, you are very well equipped, but what does this mean?" ”
"Don't you think there's something missing?" Victoria ignored my sneer, but asked me rhetorically.
"Ridiculous! What's missing? What can be missing? You all have all the beards and tails, what can you lack? I continued to scoff.
Victoria also sneered, but no longer spoke, but looked at Li Xiang. Li Xiang frowned, thought about it, and quickly came up with an answer, he looked at me and said, "There is no team doctor!" Generally, this kind of team will have a team doctor, and our team also has a team doctor! ”
"Isn't she the team doctor? What team doctor is missing? I raised my chin at Victoria and asked Li Xiang in confusion.
Li Xiang pondered for a while and said: "She doesn't count, and in general, in this kind of team, the captain can't be the team doctor, and the captain is generally an all-rounder, so she's not!" ”
"So what? What does it have to do with us without the team doctor? If you don't make it clear, the dragon spirit won't give it to you, and if you say it now, even if you make it clear, I won't give it to you! "After that, I'm going to put away the dragon spirits on the ground.
I'm not pretending to scare Victoria, I really don't plan to give the dragon spirit to Victoria.
When Victoria saw that I was going to collect the dragon spirit, she immediately pressed my hand with her hand, then looked straight at me with her eyes, and said word by word: "I'm already talking, what else do you want?" ”
Her expression and tone were calm, but I could feel the suppressed anger in her eyes.
But I didn't care at all, I pulled out the hand holding the dragon spirit fiercely, and Victoria saw me put the dragon spirit away, and was stunned for a long time, without speaking.
Her teammates looked at her anxiously, then at me viciously, and I could even see a hint of hatred in their eyes, even Alice.
I put away the dragon spirit and was about to turn away, but at this moment, Victoria made a move that no one expected, she suddenly grabbed my trouser leg, and then knelt there and said, "Please give me the dragon spirit, or we will all die, please!" ”
Victoria knelt down and begged me, I can't imagine that from the time I met her, she was a cold, or directly a cold, cold-blooded person, there was nothing to do, I could influence her emotions, I didn't expect her to kneel down and beg me now.
I didn't expect it, Victoria's team members couldn't think of it, seeing Victoria kneeling, her team members, almost all stunned, crazy, rushed over to pull Victoria, and shouted something, because they were in a hurry to speak English, I couldn't understand it, I could only hear them scolding me, trying to tease me and something like that.
Alice seemed to be completely heartbroken by me, she looked at me with a blank and cold gaze, and then said coldly, "Are you really going to drive us to death?" ”
Looking at Alice's eyes, and her haggard appearance, my determination just now was loosened again, and I regretted it again. I'm so indecisive, when I hate someone, I can't wait for the other party to die immediately.
But when I see the misfortune of the other person, I will sympathize with them. And my sympathy, which comes out of my life, is often easy to overflow, for example, when I watch some movies, the villain is beaten too badly, and I even have sympathy.
I gritted my teeth and finally said: "I asked for a reason just now, you didn't make it clear, and now I want to prove it, if it is not clear again, we will part ways!" ”
I didn't say this to Alice, but to Victoria.
Victoria's mood seemed to fluctuate, she was no longer cold, but said in a somewhat sad tone: "The team doctor is the proof!" ”
After listening to her words, I immediately became angry, I asked her to explain to me the reason why they wanted the dragon spirit, she told me the team doctor, I asked her how to prove it, the dragon spirit did not give them, she also told me the team doctor, this is playing with me? I glared and turned to leave.
Seeing that I was leaving, Victoria grabbed my pants so hard, if I hadn't had a belt, she might have pulled them off. I was about to get angry, but Victoria immediately said, "Listen to me, I'll tell you from the beginning!" ”
I sneered in my heart, I've seen a lot of this kind of bridge, in novels, on TV, I've seen it. It's nothing more than their team doctor being captured by the bad guys, and the bad guys let them get the dragon spirit to replace them or something.
This plot is too popular and too coping, so I don't bother to listen to it.
"Can't you listen to it?" Victoria was also anxious.
I finally sat down again and listened to what happened to Victoria.
As Victoria said, they were a mercenary squad with six members, and in addition to the five who were seated, there was also a team doctor, also a girl, whose name was Yu Min.
Don't look at it as a Chinese name, but Yu Min is an authentic foreigner with no Chinese ancestry. The reason why they chose a Chinese name, just like Victoria, is that they are all pseudonyms and are used. Of course, Yu Min uses a Chinese name for many reasons, but also because she once lived in China, learned some medical skills from an old doctor surnamed Yu.
Victoria didn't say much about why the mercenary team was all women, and I didn't ask much. Their squads are mainly active in all regions except China. They didn't say why, but I can guess because the rich and powerful in China don't need them at all.
The main tasks of their team are to defend and escort them. Occasionally, I also take on some difficult tasks of assassination and rescue. Sometimes, of course, they are hired by foreign governments to do jobs that they are not suitable for.
The income of the mercenary squad is not as high as in the novel or movie. Their average annual income is only two or three million dollars, and if they are lucky, they can reach more than three million, but rarely more than four million.
Speaking of which, two or three million dollars doesn't seem to be a lot, compared to many local tyrants in China, it's a small amount of money. Even for some people in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, who have three or two houses at home, two or three million dollars is not much.
But in the United States, two or three million white flowers are really a lot. It's true that social welfare in the United States is good, but ordinary people don't have money in their hands.
Because their money is used to pay off mortgages, car loans, and various expenses. Generally, it is difficult for an ordinary American family to come up with 5,000 dollars at a time. Therefore, two or three million dollars is a lot, at least abroad, which can make them live very, very comfortably.
Victoria and the others lick blood from the tip of a knife all day long, spend all day in bullets, and live with their heads pinned to their trouser belts. But as for the money earned, it is not much.
For example, the assassination of a well-known person is only 300,000 US dollars at most, and you must know that in the United States, the assassination of a person only costs a few thousand dollars, and a gunman can do it.
So 300,000 dollars, the assassin, is almost a world celebrity. And the killing of world celebrities has attracted enough attention for Victoria to drink a pot, and sometimes it may even kill them.
Therefore, when a big business comes, they will not refuse at all.
And things have to start with Victoria and they took a big order. Victoria and her family received an anonymous email in November last year.
They were asked to assassinate an antique dealer named Goosby, snatch an ancient Egyptian coffin from Goosby, and transport the coffin to a designated location. And the whole cost, is five million dollars.
Give half of the task at the beginning and the other half when it is finished.
Victoria and the others were not surprised, because a lot of their work came through anonymous mail, and the only surprise was that the amount of commission was too large.
Almost all, as long as they do this order, they can complete one-third of their tasks throughout the year. So everyone was very happy at the time, but they weren't stupid, some people couldn't move, so their reply was that they had to investigate it first and then reply.
Soon they finished their investigation, and the so-called antique dealer Goosby was actually a smuggler of antiquities, and he also worked part-time as a tomb robber. It can even be said that he is a part-time smuggler for tomb robbers. Goosby has committed crimes all over the world and is wanted by police and Interpol.
After finding out about Gusby, Victoria and the others held a meeting to study it, and felt that this list could be accepted, so they agreed.
They replied to the anonymous email, saying that they were willing to accept the order, asking for information and paying a deposit. The other party quickly passed on the information and the commission of 2.5 million US dollars.
After the $2.5 million arrived, everyone was really happy. But after the joy, Victoria and the others came back to their senses. Because this kind of list that gives money very generously and quickly, there will generally be problems.
But now that the order has been accepted and the money has been collected, if they say they will not accept it now, it will not only damage their reputation in the industry, but also may bring them death.
After all, if you know other people's secrets and don't do it, the consequences are very serious. In the end, Victoria and the others, after much thought, still took it head-on, and the nightmare began here.
