Volume II: The Dark Knight Chapter Seventy-Four: The Presumed Agreement

In the third interrogation room, two young police officers were sitting across the table, one for questioning and the other for recording. Shaw sat across from them, his hands handcuffed and secured to the table.

"Shaw. Blake, it shows that you served in the 4th Navy SEAL in South America and joined the Lurker private military company after retiring from the army. ”

Xiao shrugged his shoulders and didn't speak, these are all things that have long been confirmed in the information, and he really doesn't need to repeat it.

He pursed his lips and said, "I want a cup of coffee if I can, I haven't eaten a drop of water until now in the morning." ”

In the face of his arrogant attitude, the interrogating police officer became angry, threw the document on the table and shouted: "Be serious! You're in the police station right now! ”

Xiao opened his hands and motioned for him to calm down.

"Listen, kid, I respect you and your work, but your interrogation skills are so rookie that you can't even figure out the crux of the matter."

In the past, in the army, Xiao had been trained to resist interrogation, and the young police officer in front of him wanted to play with a white face, which made him feel helpless. To him, it was even more useless than torture.

Meanwhile, in the fifth interrogation room, Hiroha and Zhang are interrogating Scott, and there is a surveillance photo of them committing a crime at the bank on the table.

"Scott. Maureen, you're the person in the photo, right? Hongyu asked.

Scott took the photo and looked at it, pouted and said, "Hmm.... He looks like me, but I don't think he's me. ”

"Really?" Hongyu took back the photo and compared it with the person in front of him, "Take a closer look, your posture and appearance are exactly the same." ”

"Oh? Is it? Scott had a puzzled look on his face and pretended to ponder for a long time.

"To be honest, I've been a parkour influencer for a while, and I have a group of followers on YouTube, so it looks like he might be one of my fanatic."

Hirowa put the papers aside and smiled and leaned back into his seat.

"I don't understand why we're wasting time here, just a few of us, these people won't say anything." He whispered to Xiao Zhang beside him.

Xiao Zhang looked at him, glanced at Scott again, patted Hongyu on the shoulder and said, "This is work." ”

Hongyu shook his head helplessly, and put the smile back on his face again.

"Scott. Maureen, let's try again with a different question. ”

In the interrogation room at the end of the hallway, the Director sat alone in the room with Rand, and the two of them had been silent in their chairs for a long time. Rand's hands and feet were cuffed to the chair, and the security measures on his body were harsher than those of the other two.

Unlike the other two, this is an old-fashioned interrogation room, with dim light and only a lamp on the table. Rand looked towards the one-way mirror, and on the other end of the mirror stood only Team Shaw and Kane, and nothing else.

"What are we here for?" Rand finally couldn't help but ask.

The man in his fifties in front of him hadn't spoken for a long time, and it seemed that he didn't want to ask any questions, nor was he ready to speak, just blowing a few sips of fragrant tea in his hand from time to time, and rubbing the lid back and forth on the rim of the cup.

"Want to know?" The Director looked up at him with a smile, "Tell me what you took from Ion. ”

Rand didn't answer his question, instead asked, "You know you can't ask anything from me, do you?" ”

"Maybe." The director took a sip of tea and put it on the table, "I think our city's mascot has caused something wrong with your plans, isn't it?" (Note: The mascot refers to the Daredevil)

Rand smiled awkwardly, that so-called Daredevil was really powerful, and even had a faster reaction than several of them.

"He's powerful, is he one of yours?"

"No, we want to know the identity of that person too." The Director crossed his fingers and placed his hands on the table in response, "But I want to know more about the 'module' than he does." ”

A hint of surprise crossed Rand's face, so subtle that even Kane didn't notice it. He underestimated the chief in front of him, and now it seemed that this man knew a lot more than he expected.

The director sensed the hint of uneasiness and continued: "I also know that you plan to escape when you are escorted the day after tomorrow, but I will let you get what you want. ”

Hearing this, Rand was even more puzzled.

"Are you really a police officer?" He asked, slightly uneasy.

"I think so, but people have to be good at changing when faced with different situations."

The director took a sip of tea.

"What I want you to know is that you were able to escape because I let you escape. And I can get you back whenever I want. ”

Rand frowned and asked suspiciously, "Why do you want to help us?" ”

The director smiled and said, "There is an old saying that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. ”

He sneered, "Why do you think we're hostile to Ion? ”

"Child, from the moment you decide to rob Ion, you and Ion are incompatible enemies."

The corner of Rand's eyes moved slightly, this man was right, many of Ion's security measures were military-level, and without Mira's plan, they wouldn't even see a shadow of the cargo.

If you don't get what you want, Aion will never give up, and the three of them have been struggling for many days before deciding to follow Mira to do this vote.

But in the same way, if it weren't for Mira, they wouldn't have had the guts to trouble Ion. This contest is fairer with Mira, and the woman is just as terrible when she is serious, no less than Ion.

"How do you explain that to the FBI?" Rand asked.

The director took a breath and said with a smile: "I think they can only 'follow the local customs', right?" ”

This man is really funny, straight to the point, and trying to convince himself that they are grasshoppers on the same line. Anyway, for now, there is no harm in agreeing to his proposal, and it is possible to pull him off the horse if necessary.

And for Mira, Rand has actually always had reservations in his heart. This woman is as mysterious as a black hole, and even if she uses her former connections in the Corleone family, she can't find out a single thing about this person.

If you can take this opportunity to learn some secrets about her and Ion, it will be rewarding.

After thinking about it for a while, he asked the director, "Why did you choose to talk to me about this?" ”

"I need someone who is quiet enough not to disturb my tea." (Note: Quiet means thoughtful, and disturbing tea means disrupting plans.) )

The corners of Rand's mouth rose slightly, and his normally lifeless eyes lit up slightly.

"Assuming we've come to an agreement, what do you need me to do?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, looking particularly cunning in the dim light.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Chenxi woke up on the bed in the study. The sun shines through the window and falls on the pile of photos in the cupboard. He sat up from the bed and stretched, then walked over to the desk and pushed the window open.

There were not many people on the street, and there were several aunts selling vegetables sitting on the side of the road, gathering together to chat about something. The street has always been quiet, only in the morning and at four o'clock in the afternoon when there are more people on the street, but there is no noise either.

Gu Chenxi closed her eyes and took a deep breath, the expression on her face was complacent. He walked out of the study to find a homemade fruit salad on the table, a layer of plastic wrap on the plate, and a note next to it.

"Senior, I'm out for a run, this is the fruit salad I made, I'll eat it when I wake up." ’

On the right side of the word, a cartoon pig's head is drawn, with two eyes like beans, and a big pig's nose sticking out its tongue. Gu Chenxi chuckled, then lifted the plastic wrap and tasted it, it tasted good.

He munched on the salad in his mouth, went back to his study to make his bed, and went to the kitchen to pick up a broom. Today is as if it were the usual days before, without those intrigues and tricks.

Gu Chenxi hasn't had such an easy time for a long time, thanks to Zhang Jiajia, it is this girl who makes his life more ordinary and sunny.

When he cleaned the door, he saw the calendar hanging on the wall, and the June 8th on it was circled with a red pen, and Gu Chenxi realized that she was leaving the day after tomorrow.

He put his hands on the broomstick handle in a daze, and there was a trace of reluctance in his heart. But on second thought, this is not necessarily a bad thing, after all this time, it is time for her to return to her normal life.

Gu Chenxi took out his mobile phone and called El .

"Ha~~~owed~ Hey? What are you doing? El's lazy voice came over the phone.

Gu Chenxi raised his eyebrows and asked, "I just want to confirm if you are still alive, you... You won't wake up, will you? ”

On the other end of the phone, Er was lying on the bed, in the house under Gu Chenxi's name in the old city of the north. Since he was tied up here by Gu Chenxi for the first time, he has lived here.

El asked on the phone: "I worked all night yesterday on the data of Tianyan and found something interesting, do you have time to take a look?" ”

"Okay, I'll go over in the evening."

After putting down the phone, Gu Chenxi poured the swept garbage into the bucket, and then walked out of the roof room with the garbage bag.

Only then did he see that the pot of kapok placed under the pavilion was growing very well, and even in June, many bright red flowers were still blooming on the branches. The next few pots of plants that were supposed to die have also come back to life.

Among them, there are also some potted plants that Zhang Jiajia grows herself, such as the pot of jasmine. Gu Chenxi had previously told her that when the weather warmed up, many mosquitoes would fly on the rooftop, and it seemed that she should have listened to it.

He stepped forward and pinched a kapok, and said to himself: "I didn't expect your life to be quite big, it should have been a dead life, but you were saved by another girl." ”

Looking at Kapok, he seemed to see the girl's smile again, and when he laughed, his eyes would squint into a crescent moon, like a sparrow, always the old man kept screaming.

He withdrew his outstretched hand, smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and walked in the direction of the building door with the garbage bag. In the sunshine, the pot of kapok was like a quiet girl, watching Gu Chenxi leave.
