Chapter 127: Zhao Jie was kidnapped?
When the Grim Reaper heard this, the polite smile on his face suddenly froze, and a trace of uneasiness flashed through his heart.
The body that was originally leaning on the back of the chair immediately straightened, he swallowed his saliva fiercely, and hurriedly asked: "Ms. Angelina, did you miss this message, I wonder if it is convenient for you to ask your colleague?" β
Angelina glanced at the Grim Reaper, she almost knew what was going on.
She first sighed slowly, her beautiful face became serious, and she said softly:
"Mr. Death, you are an old member of the Hunters' Association, and you should also know that the position of consul was removed five years ago."
As soon as Angelina's words fell, cold sweat instantly soaked through the Grim Reaper's close-fitting clothes.
He stood up violently and ran directly to Angelina's side, ignoring etiquette, and reached out to retrieve the communicator.
"Tomorrow, afternoon, meet the consul at headquarters."
He whispered word by word, his left hand clenched into a fist, his nails embedded in his palm, and suddenly stretched out pale fingerprints.
He would never have made such a low-level mistake on a normal day, but he didn't notice it just now.
Laura looked at the Grim Reaper's somewhat panicked expression, gently pulled the corner of Death's clothes, and asked cautiously.
"Brother Death, what's going on?"
His face was gloomy and terrible, and he walked back to the table alone, his arms folded, and his eyes closed in thought.
"The position of director is usually responsible for external liaison and communication."
Huanhuan said softly.
"And this position, no matter which bunker, which Hunter Guild branch, will only create one position."
She said calmly, probably because of her personality, and she didn't panic at all.
The broken hair on her forehead fell, and she didn't care about it. She raised her white arm and stretched out a finger: "Now, there is only one possibility." That is, Zhao Jie and Abby were kidnapped. β
She stood up, inspected the banquet hall around her, and paced two steps next to her seat, finally standing next to Wu Liao.
The brows gradually locked, and the two beautiful eyes showed a fine light.
"If you don't consider the case of the Reaper team or Zhao Jie being retaliated against by some kind of personal vendetta, as for the person who kidnapped him, it would be obvious......"
The circle stopped at the right time, and her hand was quietly resting on the back of Wu Liao's chair.
She pretended to be nonchalant and her gaze slid over the faces of the people in the banquet hall.
The Grim Reaper team knew everything about this, and after listening to the words of the circle, even Laura widened her eyes at this time and looked around alertly.
The atmosphere in the arena cooled down again.
"So, this lady, doesn't trust us enough?" General Renault's voice raised a few points.
The gaze of this cadre is obviously too hot, and this old man, who is still in a high position in the government army even after two centuries, is naturally clear about their careful thoughts.
General Renault pulled out a jade pipe from the inside pocket of his suit and hung it on his lips.
The match slammed, and a clear gray smoke rose up, filling the room with a fresh fragrance.
General Renault leisurely spat out a smoke ring and nailed his gaze to the circle's face without showing weakness.
"Say, if you have any questions, you can rest assured to tell me. Even the Speaker of the Human Parliament would look at me a little thin. β
In General Renault's vigorous and powerful voice, the majesty was even more aggravated, making people subconsciously want to obey.
The circle was silent, although since the few people in front of him had already sat at the same table with his group, there was naturally no need to kidnap Zhao Jie again, isn't this an extra move?
But the circle still didn't dare to speak rashly, what if this was the result of the other party's careful planning?
Countless possibilities flashed through Huanhuan's mind in an instant, and Wu Liao gently patted her hand on the back of the chair.
Looking at the eye interaction between Wu Liao and the circle, Renault was not in a hurry.
He sat up straight, his eyes fixed on Wu Liao, but he smiled and stretched out his right hand at Wu Liao: "Of course, if you want to discuss it, you can naturally do it." β
General Reynolds tapped his fingers back and forth on the table: "However, I am not a person who is good at waiting. β
His voice stopped abruptly, and for a moment the atmosphere was a little tense.
Death opened his eyes violently, and his gaze stabbed at Renault's body like a knife.
He frowned, and although Renault's tone did not rise and fall obviously, the displeasure was already clearly audible.
Which one is he singing? Is it an opportunity to knock out our details? Death thought to himself.
Tang Youcai knew very well that he was a hot-tempered old man, coupled with the faint change of expressions of everyone during the banquet, Wu Liao's expression was speechless and stopped.
He coughed lightly, clapped his hands lightly, and said:
"Hey, you see, after talking for so long, I didn't care about eating, come and come, serve food! Let's talk and eat! β
The attendants appeared silently again, each tray with a delicate little bowl.
"Abalone consommΓ© stewed with fish maw, the second dish of the day, wow, let me tell you, this dish is amazing! Simmer for three hours! β
Tang Youcai gently pushed Angelina with his elbow again.
After all, the old man's two sentences were a bit heavy, and these young people were people who had just returned from the battlefield, so such an atmosphere was obviously not conducive to what was going on.
Angelina immediately understood and showed the demeanor of a hostess, and she greeted death in a soft voice.
"Mr. Death, don't worry too much, depending on what they mean, your companion is now also in the Optics Valley bunker."
As she spoke, she glanced at Laura, signaling her to calm down the Grim Reaper's emotions first.
Laura also took the opportunity to pick up the soup spoon, carefully scooped up a spoonful of soup, and handed it to the mouth of the Grim Reaper.
Angelina watched Death swallow, smiled and said, "Mr. Death, please rest assured, they also belong to the Hunters Association, so we naturally won't sit idly by." β
The Grim Reaper couldn't believe that this young woman who looked like she was in her early twenties could hold a high position in the Hunters' Guild.
But after the other party said these few words, there was no flaw, and he could only let go of the displeasure in his heart first, squeezed out a smile, and said some words on the scene.
For a while, the banquet returned to the happy appearance before.
Taking advantage of Tang Youcai's divergence of attention, the circle directly attached himself to Wu Liao's ear and told his thoughts as they were.
"It's possible, but when Tang Mo picked us up today, wasn't he also very interested in the Yuejin? Let's put it in the riverbed first. β
Wu Liao said and glanced at Tang Mo, the girl who was as cold as ice was chewing slowly on the small bowl in front of her.
"So, how do you know if there's one of them there?"
Huanhuan said lightly at Wu Liao.
"In that case, is it necessary for them to kidnap Zhao Jie?" Wu Liao pondered for a moment and responded to the circle.
"What if they're stalling for time?" As soon as the few words of the circle came out, even he was startled.
The Yuejin has already collected everyone's information, and Wu Liao also has access to the Yuejin's mastermind.
He reached out and took out the communicator in his hand, and hurriedly rummaged through the information of the Yuejin.
Whew, he let out a long sigh of relief.
The news of the Yuejin was returned: it had entered stealth mode, and it was silent in the riverbed, and there were no surprises on all sides.
"How? This young lady and Mr. Wu Liao, have you discussed what the result is? β
Renault's deep voice rang out again, and the small bowl in front of him was empty.
"Ahem, that General Renault!" Wu Liao laughed cheekily, and just as he was about to speak, the communicator suddenly rang.
Looking at the unhappy look on Renault's face, Wu Liao hurriedly smiled and took out the communicator to signal to Renault.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Wu Liao turned his back and lowered his voice and said to the other end of the communicator.
"It's really thanks to Xiang Shan, I called at this time, or it would be really embarrassing!" Wu Liao complained silently in his heart.
"Uh-huh, I already know this."
"What? What is he looking for you?"
"Holy! No way? β
"Okay, okay, understand, then do it first."
Wu Liao put away the communicator, and the expression on his face looked very weird.
