Chapter XVI Arrangement
December 2, 2218.
Eagle County, Vienna.
Orange sunlight peeked through the cracks in the curtains and slowly climbed up the edge of the bed.
It wasn't until the light touched her face that Kageori woke up from a murmur yawning.
Her appearance was very different from when she was in the Internet Ring Center, when she wore a semi-implanted fiber mask for a long time in order to hide, and that face looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, childish, mediocre in appearance, combined with a greasy ponytail hairstyle, no one would look at her more; But now, when she took off her mask, she looked like she was in her early twenties, with a well-defined and beautiful face, a petite but bumpy figure, and a well-groomed hair, which made her look back everywhere she went.
Kageori's posture of getting out of bed is a bit like doing sit-ups, except that her hands hang naturally at her sides; She easily supported her lithe body with her slender, flexible waist alone, and the towering curve of her chest supported the velvet sheets that covered her.
Kageori, who sat up, was just about to stretch comfortably when something appeared in her vision that wasn't supposed to be there.
In an instant, she was so sleepy that she instinctively pressed her hand against the sheet that was slipping from her chest.
"How did you get in?" Her voice and expression almost instantly became murderous.
"Does it matter?" Zilin's tone when he responded was very leisurely.
At this moment, he was sitting on a sofa less than two meters away from the end of the bed of Kageori, holding the tablet that came with this hotel room in his hand, browsing the web.
"Hmph......" Kashiori also felt that her first question was not important, so she snorted coldly and changed the question, "That's good...... What are you here for? ”
"Anyway, I didn't come to see you sleeping naked." Zilin replied.
From a certain point of view, he is also telling the truth, from the time Kageori got up until now, Zilin has never looked at each other directly.
"So......" A second later, before Kageori could respond, Zilin continued, "I suggest you put on your clothes first, pack up, and then we'll talk." ”
"Aren't you afraid that I'll take your suggestion as a fart and rush over and slaughter you right now?" Kageori was obviously very unhappy at this moment.
"Why kill me?" Zilin asked.
"Just by your 'sneak into my room'...... That's enough. Kageori replied.
"Oh." Zilin replied casually and continued, "Do you remember the first time we met?" ”
Hearing this, Kageori was stunned for a second, and then remembered...... That time, he slipped into Zilin's room first.
"Two different things!" Kageori immediately shouted in a loud voice.
"Really? How do I think it's the same thing. Zilin said, "Do you think you can play double standard if you strip naked?" Then I'll take it off too. ”
At this point, he actually began to unbutton his shirt.
"Stop!" Kageori was so angry that she wanted to jump, but jumping would be cheaper for the other party, so she could only endure it, "You turn around first!" ”
"Okay." As he spoke, Zilin stood up and turned one hundred and eighty degrees in place.
It stands to reason that Kageori could have taken advantage of this moment to attack directly from behind, but she didn't.
First, she really didn't have a good reason to kill her son.
Second, she knew that the other party must have a reason for looking for her, and wanted to understand the situation first.
Third, as one of the parties involved, she naturally read the news report in Linyi a few days ago, although the official news is relatively large, but she can still infer from various clues that Zilin is a very strong person, and it really fights...... She wasn't entirely sure she could win.
To sum up, let's put on our clothes.
"Don't peek, I won't tell you to turn around!" While getting dressed, Kageori kept glaring at Zilin, reminding and warning the other party in an angry tone.
"I slept dead and ugly, and now I say that kind of thing." Zilin shrugged his shoulders and answered with his face on the wall.
"Does it have anything to do with how well I sleep?" Kageori asked again.
"Then let me put it another way......" Zilin continued, "When I came in, your quilt was not covered, and I helped you cover it." ”
Whew-
Before he could finish speaking, a snow-white thigh brushed his cheek.
At this moment, Shadow Weaving has put on close-fitting clothes and put on a white silk yukata, she is really angry, she finally couldn't bear it, and suddenly gave Zilin a flying kick from behind.
But Zilin seemed to have already guessed that there would be such a play, he just tilted his head slightly, and then avoided it lightly.
Shadow weaving didn't give up, inserted the eyes and locked the throat to tease the yin legs, and followed with a set of consecutive hits.
But Zilin parried very easily, in the limited space, he only moved an inch slightly, even to eliminate the flash, and all the attacks of Kageori were resolved, and the feeling of being light and comfortable made Kageori quickly realize the gap between the two and stop further offensives.
"I warn you......" Kageori straightened her clothes and said coldly, "Don't think that if you helped me once before, you can get an inch in front of me." ”
"As I have already said, that time it was not as if I was 'helping you', but everyone took what they needed." Zilin replied, "In addition, I will never 'gain an inch' before 'entering a foot', I have always advanced as many feet as I want, and I don't intend to leave a single inch to others...... Because I want them all. ”
"Cut ......" Kageori folded her hands in front of her chest and pouted, "Listen to what you mean, you just lied to me, right?" ”
"Huh...... I'm here to talk to you about cooperation. Zilin walked to another sofa and sat down, "Why do you say that I will definitely cheat you?" ”
"I don't believe you."
"Oh? Why? ”
"A woman's intuition."
"The reason...... Oh, I really can't argue with that. Zilin smiled and said, "Then I'm here to blackmail you, do you want to listen to the tasks and conditions?" ”
"Can I still say no if I hear that?" Kageori is very sensitive, and she knows the rules of the way.
"How...... Do you think you can refuse if you don't listen? Zilin's rhetorical question is quite unreasonable.
"Looks like you have to be the one for this task?" Shadow Weaving.
"Not really." Zilin denied the other party's speculation, "I chose you because your ability is more suitable, and you can get twice the result with half the effort compared to letting others go, and secondly...... I also want to take this opportunity to test you and see if I can work with you for a long time in the future. ”
"I don't want to be associated with someone like you, let alone a long-term relationship." Kageori replied angrily.
"What's wrong with me? I'm not trying to marry you. Zilin leaned back on the sofa and said in a mocking tone, "Besides, if it weren't for me, you would still be living in a dilapidated house in the Internet Ring Center, sleeping on a hard bunk, and gnawing on your nest...... What luxury hotels, high-end Western food, various concerts...... I didn't have it in my dreams. ”
"Stop talking nonsense, let's say, what do you want me to do?" Kageori interrupted him impatiently.
"Before I talk about the mission, I want to talk about the conditions." Zilin continued, "Then you may be a little more receptive." ”
"Hmph, since you say so, then I still have to listen to the task first." Kageori began to raise the bar.
Zilin replied with a smile: "I want you to rush to 'Christo City' within 24 hours, infiltrate a high-level meeting of the Federation, and represent 'me' to negotiate a deal with them." ”
"Oh." Kageori's reaction was surprisingly calm, "Do you want me to die?" ”
I don't know why, but when she said this, a very solid local accent came out.
"When this is done...... and Zilin's words are not finished, "you should be arrested and sent to a federal prison for capable criminals; But you don't need to panic, within two months, I will personally lead a gang of fierce gods and evil to rescue you, and we will try to get in touch with you when the time comes, and you will cooperate with us inside and out......"
"Okay, you don't have to say anything." Shadow Weaving said, "I don't want to hear half of your nonsense anymore, I will never accept this kind of suicidal business, and I ...... what price you offer."
"When you get out of prison, I'll arrange for you to meet your sister." Zilin interrupted the shadow weaving in turn with this abrupt sentence.
"What did you say?" In those two seconds, Kageori's expression changed significantly.
"In a lifetime, there will always be something you want to do, some people you can't let go, or something that is difficult to give up," Zi......lin said indifferently, "I have already investigated your situation, combined with Xian Xiao's ability, I quickly deduced the purpose of you taking her away...... In the end, an obvious conclusion presented itself to me. He paused, "So, I'm here to tell you, rather than pinning your hopes on an extremely unstable novice ability, come to me...... The success rate is much higher; I definitely have the ability and resources to help you find your sister, but only if you ...... You'll have to meet my demands first. ”
Kageori looked at Zilin, frowning and pondering for a moment.
During this time, her eyes flashed with hesitation, doubt, withdrawal, impulsiveness, and ...... A glimmer of hope.
"Just two months?" She compromised, believed, and was willing to take the risk even if it was a big gamble because...... As Zilin said, when people live in this world, there will always be something to be attached to, which may be insignificant to others, but to the person concerned...... It's worth it.
"Don't worry, if it goes well, it won't take two months." Zilin said, "You don't have to worry about what you will suffer after you are arrested, the federal side ...... I've arranged it all. ”
As he spoke, he took out an I-PEN from his jacket pocket and prepared to hand over some materials to the other party.
Kageori walked over to the bar, poured herself a glass of whiskey on the rocks, and took a sip to settle down.
"By the way......" After calming down, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked, "The time for the mission is so tight, why didn't you wake me up earlier?" ”
Hearing this, Zilin inexplicably showed a little stunned, and sighed lightly: "I can't bear it......" His eyebrows were thoughtful, "Can you fall asleep...... How wonderful. ”
