"Do you know what a strategic retreat is? This is called a strategic retreat. Yan Junli stood up.

"Come on, this statement is nothing more than an excuse for your own failure......" Yang Wenbin dismissed this statement.

"No, absolutely not, unless you don't want to investigate the matter, and if so, I didn't say." When Yan Junli sat back on the sofa, there was an extra bag in his hand, he opened the bag and placed it in front of Yang Wenbin, inside were the five videotapes that Poppy had shown them, as well as some other folders of information.

"Information on the Olive Branch Project?" Yang Wenbin asked.

"Uh-huh. This was given to me by Poppy, and it contains all the information she found. Yan Junli handed the bag to Yang Wenbin and said seriously, "Although most of the materials of the Olive Branch Project have disappeared, she is still sure that a large part of the documents are still missing. So, Yang Wenbin, what I want to tell you is that whether you like it or not, the current state is the status quo we are facing. You're either going to get down in frustration and give up on yourself, or you're going to prick up my chest and find out what the plan is all about, and find out who is behind it. Wenbin, you shouldn't need me to remind you, right? This is no ordinary case, we are in a war right now, and hiding in the depths is the best chance for the Jedi to fight back. ”

Yang Wenbin looked at Yan Junli and couldn't help but smile, it was the first time Yan Junli had seen him smile since he was injured and hospitalized. Yang Wenbin grabbed the bag in Yan Junli's hand and stood up, stretched out a finger to him defiantly and shook it.

"Okay, then you just wait."

"Hey buddy, you're back. Do you have a rich private life? Zhou Mu hung his blazer on the back of the sofa, sat on the sofa wearing only a shirt, and stared at the laptop on his lap with his legs crossed. When Yan Junli entered the door, he didn't look back before he said this.

Yan Junli hung his coat on the hanger at the door, and said while taking off his shoes, "First, you never, never call me like that, it's disgusting." Second, don't think that if you let us live in your place, you can just get close to me, and I can still arrest you back to the prison in City C at any time. ”

"But you won't, will you?" Zhou Mu's eyes left the laptop, and he turned his head and showed a smirk at Yan Junli, "Will you?" ”

Yan Junli and Zhou Mu looked at each other for a few seconds, but they were still defeated, "No." ”

"I knew that our friendship over the years was not just a casual one." Zhou Mu turned his head back a little proudly and continued to look at the laptop screen.

"Why didn't the poppy kill you before that explosion?" Yan Junli walked over and sat beside Zhou Mu, his eyes glancing at some documents on the screen, "...... Paperwork? ”

"yes, you know, lawyers always have to have a lot of these boring jobs." Zhou Mu replied as he typed out words on the document.

"No, you're really a lawyer." Yan Junli was dumbfounded and let out a dry laugh, "You know what? Maybe you're really fit for this job, just like being a boss in the underworld, it's nothing more than cheating people, making money, and killing some innocent people or sending them to prison. ”

"Black cat, it's a bit serious for you to say that." Zhou Mu straightened up, buckled the laptop, and looked directly at Yan Junli, "You know that in the previous case, you froze all my family property and business, right?" So where do you think I got the money to buy this house in the city center? Do you think I got it? Wrong, I earned it back by cent, and I relied on the job I found on my own. ”

"Mixed with some tricks and other tricks." Yan Junli folded his arms and looked at Zhou Mu, "Okay, don't play that trick of 'I've reformed myself', we all know that it can't happen." Can you buy a villa in the city center on the salary of a lawyer? You're a liar. I can find out what disgusting things you've done this year in a week, and I'm sure any one of them will be enough to send you to jail. ”

Zhou Mu spread his hands disappreciatively, "Then why don't you do it?" Send me to prison. ”

Yan Junli looked at him and didn't speak.

"Oh, of course." Zhou Mu said with a smile, "You didn't investigate me, and you didn't send me back to City C to go to jail, because you knew that I could help you in this war." To be exact, it can help you a lot, and you have to make sure that I'm on your side until the end of this fight. Seriously, Dr. Yang knows that you are acting with such a clear conscience, right? ”

"If letting you go is doing things against my conscience, then I have already cut my conscience with a thousand cuts." Yan Junli rolled his eyes, "But ...... You're right, I do. I thought about the poppy and watched the materials and videos, and I was sure that they were just the tip of the iceberg, and the rest of the icebergs, although we don't know what they were, were certainly not good things. So ......"

Yan Junli adjusted his posture. He was not good at saying this kind of thing, let alone facing Zhou Mu, but for the sake of Yang Wenbin and the future of City C, he had to speak hard, "So I have to ask you, Zhou Mu, are you on our side?" ”

Zhou Mu showed a malicious smile and said generously, "Hmm...... I don't know, or you're begging me, right? ”

"Zhou Mu!"

"Hahahaha...... Okay okay, I'm not kidding. Zhou Mu laughed loudly, without the slightest intention of restraint, "You should really look at your annoyed and angry expression just now, it's so cute, I should have taken a picture." ”

"Zhou Mu, I'll talk to you seriously!" Yan Junli glared at the former gang leader.

"Well, I'll answer you seriously." Zhou Mu turned his head and folded his hands with each other, "Yes, Yan Junli, I'm from your side." And I swear to God that I will not betray you, even if the men on the other side point a gun to my head. ”

For such a straightforward and sincere answer, Yan Junli didn't know what to say for a while.

"Uh...... I didn't expect you to say that. ”

"Listen, Yan Junli." Zhou Mu said with a smile in his eyes, "We may be two completely different people. You're a one-size-fits-all person, and I've learned to steal from stores since I was twelve, and I'm a person who hates rules. But that doesn't stop the two of us from still having something in common, right? ”

"I'd rather blow up a building than admit that I have anything in common with you." Yan Junli muttered.

Zhou Mu laughed when he heard this, "Even if you say that, it still doesn't affect me to regard you as the most respectful friend...... Or the enemy, who knows? I know you're worth it, and I know you're always doing the right thing, so if you need me, I'll do whatever it takes. ”

Yan Junli looked at him with interest, "Or maybe you're lying." ”

Zhou Mu showed a sly smile, blinked, and affirmed, "Or I'm lying." ”

Both of them burst into laughter at the same time.

"Oh, yes. Why don't you see Yang Wenbin? Yan Junli glanced around.

"In his room." Zhou Mu raised his finger and pointed.

"In the room again?" Yan Junli said with some surprise, "He seems to be ...... I've been confined to my room for the last few days. ”

"yes, and I haven't seen him come out for dinner today." Zhou Mu spread his hands.

“…… I started to think that giving him the information was a wrong decision. Yan Junli got up from the sofa, and just as he was about to walk to Yang Wenbin's room, he suddenly turned around, "Oh yes, delete your defense." ”

"What?" Zhou Mu was inexplicable.

Yan Junli pointed to the laptop on his lap, "Replace it with a sexual harassment allegation, this reason is more advantageous in court." ”

After speaking, Yan Junli left the living room, leaving Zhou Mu's helpless smile after being stunned.

————————————————————————

Yan Junli knocked on the door, and the wooden door made a crisp sound, "Wen Bin, are you inside?" ”

After a few seconds of silence inside, Yang Wenbin replied indistinctly, "Hmm." ”

"Can I go in?"

"Aang."

Yan Junli pushed open the door and leaned in halfway in. The room was a mess, with papers, books, and documents piled up all over the room, and Yang Wenbin was standing in the only open space in the room, looking up, studying the pile of photographs and newspaper clippings posted on the wall, his fingers stroking the thin colored lines that connected them.

As soon as I saw this posture, I knew that Yang Wenbin was in a state of hard thinking.

"Uh, Yang Wenbin-" Yan Junli had just started his sentence when he was unceremoniously interrupted by Yang Wenbin.

"I don't understand. The fact that the opium poppy was found in three different places suggests that the tapes were deliberately scattered all over the place. But that doesn't make sense, because the tapes weren't recorded by the same person at all, and they weren't even from the same person. I can tell that some of the information in this is compiled by the clown's people, while some are made by Shaying's agents, and some are the manuscripts of Dr. Qian Zimo. It's impossible, these are the most confidential information at the beginning, if I were the one who wrote these materials, I would definitely put them away, how could they end up mixed with the enemy's information? It's like you put Superman and Lex Luthor in the same room and ask them to make a haircut with each other. [Note]"

"Yang Wenbin......" Yan Junli reluctantly spoke again.

"I know, I know, probably some outsider came to collect it after the dust settled, just as we can see different World War II materials from Germany, the United States, and Britain now. But Ye Heshuo and Xia Baiyan are not dead, are they? How could they have allowed others to collect this information? Yang Wenbin was completely lost in deep thought until Yan Junli interrupted him.

"First of all, Lex Luthor is bald." Yan Junli said helplessly, "Second, I actually came here to ask you what you want to eat for dinner." ”
