Chapter 0018 - Insider
Fifteen days have passed since the operation.....
From being bedridden at the beginning, to reclining on the back of the bed, and then to going down to the ground for rehabilitation, Zhou Qingfeng's recovery speed was much faster than the doctor expected. His ignorance and freshness when he first arrived in Gaul gradually faded, and even the ability to gain was as normal - walking once before the ghost gate closed, it was a person who had to be more mature, not to mention that he had walked twice. Do you still have to shout and tell the world that you can't do it?
After the attack on Montpellier, both Zhou Qingfeng and Erica were taken to the hospital for resuscitation. They were quickly taken back by helicopter to another hospital in Palle.
The old butler Max, accompanied by Bacchus and interpreter, came to visit Zhou Qingfeng, and also brought the greetings of old Mr. Caroling-let him recuperate with peace of mind, saying that he had begun to track down the murderer of the bombing, and once again said that he would definitely ensure his safety in the future. As for other issues, both sides tacitly did not mention them.
Zhou Qingfeng was indifferent to these Gauls, watching them talk was like watching a puppet show. At most, he asked Erica about her condition, and learned that the girl was seriously injured and was still in intensive care in the ICU, still on the verge of death.
According to the doctor's description, the drone carrying the grenade exploded right above Zhou Qingfeng's head. Although Erica protected him, more than a dozen steel balls hit him, severely damaging one side of his body.
But after the operation, Zhou Qingfeng's recovery speed was very surprising - when his physique was far inferior to Erica, he woke up on the second day of the operation and was able to sit up three days later. Ten days after the operation, he was able to walk on the ground.
The doctor said it was a miracle and said that after another week of observation, he would be discharged if there were no other problems. When the old butler Max learned about it, he was overjoyed, as if he had found a treasure. Zhou Qingfeng listened to Bacchus's translation, and he also had more doubts and curiosity about his body.
Old Max stayed for five minutes and left. Instead, Bacchus stayed behind and said in a familiar greeting: "Hi ......, Victor, I'm so glad to see that you look good." ”
"I'm not called Victor." Zhou Qingfeng didn't give Bacchus any good looks. Tearing his face on the way to Gaul, his relationship with the other party is not very good, and there is no intention of repairing it.
Laugh at......!
"A child's bad temper." Bacchus sneered in front of Zhou Qingfeng's hospital bed. He was still dressed in the same successful middle-aged outfit, with shiny hair, beautiful gold-rimmed glasses, a modest suit and expensive leather shoes. But his attitude of looking down on people is still revealed through his cheekiness.
Regarding Zhou Qingfeng's rebellion, Bacchus mocked with disdain: "Don't resist, boy." You are Victor now. Hugo, everyone will call you by that name. That's the name Erica gave you, though she's a prank. But she's dying trying to save you. Bacchus also poked his head forward and said, "Aren't you a little grateful?" ”
"Erica is Erica, and you're you." In Zhou Qingfeng's heart, although Erica has a bad temper, she is a straight person, and she has saved herself twice, as long as she masters the method, she can still communicate. But Bacchus in front of him is a smiling tiger, a hypocrite, and it is clearly not a good thing. If you get too close to this kind of person, you may be betrayed at any time.
"Whatever you want." Bacchus shrugged boringly, "I don't want to have too much friendship with a yellow-skinned monkey like you. You told my uncle that you had a 50 percent match rate, but I knew that a poor beggar like you must be a liar.
If you think that by going to Montpellier and pretending to be a ghost, you will be respected and even favored in front of my uncle, then let me tell you some truths and uncover some cruel truths. ”
The word 'truth' successfully attracted Zhou Qingfeng's attention.
"More than twenty years ago, Uncle Carolinge funded an archaeological dig for your parents, and the clue came from your mother's research into the history of ancient trade. Among the results of the excavation was the metal block you touched a few days ago, which my uncle named the 'Energy Cube', and he said that he could hear a sound coming from inside the metal block when he touched it. ”
Speaking of this, Bacchus laughed, "That sounds amazing. At first, my uncle felt that he must be favored by God, and he regarded the piece of metal as a treasure and wanted to uncover its secrets. But he has been researching for more than 20 years and has found nothing, and even wonders if your parents have deliberately left something out?
Until a few years ago, my uncle was old. He finally realized that he had no chance to unravel the so-called 'Rubik's Cube Secret' on his own, so he allowed others to touch the metal as well. But no one heard anything but him. Everyone wondered if this old guy was demented?
My uncle didn't give up and sent the metal block to the testing agency, and even contacted the Europa Atomic Energy Research Center for this purpose. But it took a lot of effort, and the result of the scientist was, 'Mr. Caroling, I'm glad you have placed your trust in us.'" But we have to regret to say that you are only providing a piece of iron with a higher purity. ’
Hahaha...... over the years, many people have used that piece of metal to approach my uncle, saying that they can uncover the secrets and try to scam him out of his money. But after a long time, everyone knew that it was my uncle's conjecture, and there was no mysterious voice at all. Only the old butlers, Max and Erica, insisted that my uncle was right.
Max followed my uncle for decades, and no matter what my uncle said, he would not object. As for Erica, she also said that she heard voices in metal blocks, and that she gained strength from them and became good at fighting. But I think she is either well disguised, or she is lost in the same conjecture and becomes a paranoia who often suffers from psychosis.
It was at this time that your parents died. My uncle felt that their deaths were not normal, and forced me to investigate, and happened to find out about your existence. So my uncle thought it was possible for you to uncover the so-called 'secret of the Rubik's Cube' and go to great lengths to get you to Gaul. It turns out that you really say you can hear a sound in that piece of broken metal. Do you know how I feel when I hear the news? ”
Bacchus stood up, stared at Zhou Qingfeng coldly, and said, "Did you know something from Howard?" For you, you must feel that you have grasped some kind of opportunity, right?
I know you're trying to curry favor with my uncle and gain advantage. But I'm going to tell you, don't count on it. Do you think my uncle took you from planting flowers to pears for charity?
No......!
He just wants to subdue you and be his tool, just like me. If you don't show anything special, my uncle will think you're lying to him. And if you really show any special abilities, that's even worse. My uncle will give you tasks to test you, just like Erica.
As a final reminder, my uncle, Monsieur Carolingian, was a well-known grey intermediary in Gaul. He specializes in helping people with special status to deal with difficult matters. Maybe it won't be long before he'll let you solve some problems for him.
Oh, and don't forget Howard, who's the one who got you to the hospital with a grenade. Until now, I haven't figured out who hired the fat pig behind it. Although Jing Fang has started to arrest him, he does still want your life. So I'm not very optimistic about your future. ”
Bacchus' words unravel a lot of the fog and spread more mystery about the event. He laughed and mocked, and left laughing. Zhou Qingfeng found that he was in a cold sweat, and the sweat was sticky on his body.
"It's really not a good thing." Zhou Qingfeng walked into the bathroom of the ward, took off his clothes and wanted to shower and rinse. In the bath mirror, he is only 1.67 meters tall and weighs less than 50 kilograms. It may be an exaggeration to say 'skinny', but this figure can't cope with any intense conflict. A little stronger man can easily knock him down.
"I thought I would get a lot of money in Gaul and go back home in style. As a result, ......, the trouble is getting bigger and bigger. ”
The hot water flushed out of the shower, and the mirror was covered with a layer of water droplets by the water vapor, and Zhou Qingfeng quickly couldn't see his face clearly. He was sighing when the bathroom door opened. A blonde-haired nurse sister walked in from outside and happily called out to him in French, "Hey, bad boy, I guess you're in the bathroom." Waiting for me to give you a bath? ”
Although I don't understand it, it doesn't matter, the meaning is still very clear.
Zhou Qingfeng could only smile bitterly......
Do you want to have fun in time?
