The old man who was eating turned his head and glanced at Leo. He chewed non-stop in his mouth, obviously an old man with gray hair, but he ate and devoured things.

"Acquaintance, Uesugi?"

"It's my fellow disciple."

Uesugi Izumioka is slightly older than Leo, with yellow skin, dark eyes, black hair, and an angular face, all of which indicate his origin in the Yamato region of the Yugoslav Federation.

"You still speak Angue so well." Leo said with a smile.

"After all, there are a lot of foreigners like you in the division."

"Who's that old man?"

"My client, I work as a bodyguard for a living now."

"About the same as me, I'm working as a security guard at the school now."

"It's not bad, at least it's much better than last year."

Leo smiled wryly and nodded, fiddling with the menu in his hand. Uesugi also felt as if he had touched Leo's sore spot, and ate his sandwich a little awkwardly.

"I can't get used to eating these things."

"That's right, Izumioka."

Leo put down the menu and said seriously. He didn't really want to ask a question, but he felt that he wouldn't have a chance if he didn't ask now.

Xiao Feng ...... How's it going? Are you two still acting together? ”

Uesugi put down the cutlery and pulled out a napkin.

"Same as me."

"Do you still want to find me?"

"yes. After last year's farewell at Arandal, we managed to find a place to stay, and he immediately went to see you and found that you were no longer in Arandal. ”

"It's still the same, I'm the same anyway, and I don't plan to get involved."

The shopkeeper came and poured Leo a glass of water, and Leo picked up the cup and was about to drink it, but he thought about it and put it down.

"Izumioka, are you as obsessed with revenge as he is?"

"Hatred is easy to find, compassion is hard to see, this is the master's teaching. It's just that Xiao Feng is stubborn and doesn't know how to be flexible, he has a heart of revenge, and if he doesn't make it to the end, I'm afraid he won't give up. is also a 'six guards', I can't leave him alone. Leo, you'......."

"Boss checkout."

As he spoke, the old man ate all the dishes on the table, threw down the tableware and stood up, summoning the female shopkeeper to pay the bill with one hand, and taking out the money with the other, not knowing what to do in such a hurry. Uesugi got up slowly, picked up the golf bag, and said the second half of the sentence.

“…… Are you content with your current life? ”

"It's good to live peacefully."

"When Xiao Feng heard this, he would definitely be angry, obviously we are all ......"

"I don't like to be a six-guard."

"Isn't Leo grateful to his master?"

"I have! Just ......"

Leo's voice lowered a little, and then the shopkeeper came over with the change, and the old man received it and couldn't wait to leave the restaurant. Uesugi shook his head.

"Everyone has his own ambitions, and he can't force them. If you have a reason to convince yourself, that's fine. ”

"What about you, Izumioka? Are you going to tell Xiao Feng that you saw me? ”

"I won't do that incomprehensible thing, I don't need to say more, Xiao Feng will know. I just hope that when the two of you meet, there won't be any mess. Goodbye. ”

Carrying the golf bag over his shoulder, Uesugi clenched his fist at Leo and went outside. The old man was standing on the side of the road, belching, his neck twisting and moving.

"Let's take a taxi back, Uesugi." The old man said to Uesugi.

"Why don't you wait for someone to pick it up?"

"No, it's too slow. When you get back, you're ready to go to that place. ”

"Do you need me to get the pieces back?"

"If you can, it's best, but you don't have to force it. For the sake of Cullom's face that had helped me before, I cooperated with him. ”

The old man was the one Cullom had asked him to help, and what Cullom wanted him to do was snatch the shards. The fragments have always been guarded by the teams sent by the World Government, and this time it is the second independent operation team known as the elite of the Thunder Legion. Cullom wanted to get the pieces out of their hands, but it was completely impossible.

So, he came up with this solution, which was also a step in his preparation, to find someone to snatch the fragments and give them to himself. As long as the fragments are under their control, there is a way to survive from the executors.

It's a pity that the old man has no intention of wading into troubled waters for Cullom, he came to Kogani City for another purpose, although Cullom had funded him, this matter can only be pointed.

A taxi approached, and the old man beckoned.

"He's going to be down in two days, and I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore. So Uesugi, you look at it. ”

"Yes, Dr. Black." Uesugi said.

*****

The Republic of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, located in the southern hemisphere, is a big martial arts country with six main martial arts schools. If you count the various distributions that have been extended, the list goes on. However, young people nowadays are more interested in all kinds of quick sanda, and there are not many people who are really willing to devote themselves to traditional martial arts.

Among the six major schools, the Wind Forest Gate is unique. In terms of scale, it is the smallest of the six factions. Unlike other schools that open martial arts halls everywhere to accept apprentices, Fenglinmen only has martial arts halls in Murong Town, Pingyang City, Huxi Province, Southern Alliance. Murong Town is backed by Tianle Mountain, a hill full of bamboo forests, pines and cypresses, gurgling streams, and quite a meaningful environment. It is located in the Wind Forest Temple, which is the residence of Mr. Wind Forest (the name of the head of the Wind Forest Gate) in the past generations, and it is also the place where Mr. Wind Forest personally passed on his skills.

Murong Town was formerly known as Hunshui Town. More than 500 years ago, Murong Cheng, the founder of Fenglin Gate and the first generation of Fenglin Mr. Murong Cheng, traveled here and fell in love with this quiet town at the foot of the mountain, so he settled down and built a Fenglin Institute on the mountain. Murong Cheng and his disciples had a good relationship with the locals and lived in peace. At that time, it was a war, and he also ordered the disciples of Fenglin to come forward to expel the robbers and rebels who took advantage of the fire to protect the safety of the people. Later, the town was renamed Murong Town to commemorate Murong Cheng. To this day, there is a statue of Murong Cheng standing in the center of the town.

Because of these, the town often welcomes people who defect to the Wind Forest Gate. Any disciple who enters the Wind Forest Sect needs to learn martial arts and culture in the martial arts hall first, and when he is successful, the master will introduce him to the Wind Forest Academy. Every June, the Wind Forest Gate holds a meeting to test the strength of its disciples, called the "Wind Forest Festival". Disciples who excel in the Wind Forest Festival can enter the Wind Forest Temple to further study, which is called "riding the wind".

Usually there are more than 2,000 disciples in the Wind Forest Academy, and most of them are taught by each sect leader (the teacher with the largest number of people in the Wind Forest Academy, with a lower status). Disciples who deserve further study will be sent to the academy (teachers with a higher status than the head of the sect) to study more difficult martial arts. The rules in the Fenglin Courtyard are much stricter than those in the martial arts hall outside, and the disciples not only have to practice martial arts, but also cultivate themselves, and if they are slightly inferior to the masters' intentions, or violate the rules of the academy, they may be sent back to the martial arts hall and never come back. This is known as the "Falling Forest".

For the vast majority of disciples, being able to enter the academy to study is already the highest goal. Very few people are willing to attack the last step, which is to become Mr. Fenglin's personal disciple, that is, the "Six Guards".

As the name suggests, the six guards are six people, which is a rule passed down from Murong Cheng. Each Mr. Fenglin can only accept a maximum of six personal disciples, one of whom will become the next Mr. Fenglin, and the other five will become the hall master to assist Mr. Fenglin. Liuwei is not only a disciple, but also serves as the bodyguard of Mr. Fenglin and the hall master, and they want to dedicate their lives to Fenglinmen and pass on the martial arts ideas of Fenglinmen.

But last year, Mr. Fenglin died suddenly, which shocked Huaye for a while. As for the cause of death, there are also different opinions, and they are divided into two factions: suicide and homicide. The police did not release further details and ended the investigation by suicide. Many disciples were extremely dissatisfied with this, the Wind Forest Gate was in chaos overnight, and Murong Town was full of anger and suspicion, and the five hall masters were anxious to compete for the position of Mr. Wind Forest. The six guards who lost Mr. Fenglin also went their own way.

Leo is one of the six guards, but he doesn't like this identity, and even coming to the Wind Forest Gate to study is not something he is willing to do. He never had the idea of getting ahead, but he inexplicably rode the wind, and was favored by the hospital affairs, and finally sent it to Mr. Fenglin.

After burying his master, Leo returned to China. To say that he is not sad about the death of his master is a lie. Until now, as long as you put on the forest, hold the sandalwood dragon, and enter the battle state, you can recall the master's earnest teachings in your ears. The voice was so real, as if it wasn't in my head, but the master whispering beside me.

It's just that Leo never thought about the cause of his master's death, and he didn't have the qualifications to be a detective. The police said it was a suicide, and he could only accept it silently.

However, Xiao Feng, who firmly believed that the master was killed, did not believe the words of the police anyway. If he really reappears and talks about the master, how can he answer correctly?

"You want an omelette, bread, bacon and milk."

The shopkeeper held a plate of food and placed it in front of Leo. Leo grabbed a piece of bread a little absentmindedly and took a bite.

"The cutlery is here." The shopkeeper shoved the knife and fork into Leo's hand.

"Thanks, I'll do it myself."

"That person just now, is that your friend?"

"yes."

"Still, you don't seem to have a good conversation, what's wrong?"

It was said that there was no need to tell outsiders about this kind of thing, but the female shopkeeper spoke softly, as if full of motherly love and concern, which made Leo feel that there was nothing wrong with saying it.

"One piece...... Trouble thing, we're a little bit divided. ”

"Oh. But since we're friends, let's have a good chat, there will always be a way. ”

"Maybe."

"Well, you use it slowly."

The guest had something unspeakable, and the female shopkeeper understood, so she silently cleaned up the plates and tableware left by the two guests just now, and brought them to the back kitchen to wash.

Leo was the only one in the dining room, and he looked out the window again. The houses had been forgotten for a long time, the weeds had blocked the doors, and they were desolate. He sighed, ate breakfast little by little, and his mood was as messy as the pile of unfinished buildings.

At this time, there was a noise outside from far and near, and when they arrived at the door, the door suddenly opened, and three people squeezed in with laughter, all wearing vests and blue pants. One of them had a mace pinned to his waist and was tall and thin, and the other was wearing a hard hat, five big and three thick. The last one to come in was dressed in dirty clothes, a little short. Looks like a worker at a construction site.

"Welcome, welcome!"

The female shopkeeper who was washing dishes came out and looked at these people and barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

"Do you want to eat?"

The big man wearing a hard hat walked up to the female shopkeeper, took the menu on Leo's table next to him, and ordered a lot of them in one go, and the female shopkeeper wrote them down one by one.

"That's all." He concluded.

"Okay, please wait, it'll be right away."

"Can't wait," the big man waved his hand, "I'll send it to us when we're done, the construction site at No. 4402." ”

The female shopkeeper looked embarrassed: "This, that place is a bit far away, and there is no one else in my store, a few wait, soon." ”

"I can't wait, can't I understand the words?"

Dahan became angry and raised his hand to fan the menu in the face of the female shopkeeper, who covered her face in fear and grievance.

"It's really inconvenient, please understand, I ......"

"Hurry up and do it!"

Pushing the female shopkeeper away, the three of them turned around and left, and the female shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed the big man.

"Then pay first."

"Go to the construction site and get it!"

"No, it's not much......"

"You, it's not over!?"

The big man became angry, pushing and shoving with the female shopkeeper, and the two behind him also helped. A few people were making a fuss, and the big man inadvertently hit Leo's table, and the cup of milk was poured, and the milk flowed everywhere. Leo quietly put down the cutlery and stood up, patting the shoulder of the big man who had quarreled with the female shopkeeper.

"Hey."

As soon as the big man turned around, he was caught off guard, and a heavy punch hit the bridge of his nose, causing him to take two steps back, almost sitting on the ground, covering his nose and shouting pain, and pointing at Leo and scolding.

"Where the did you come from!?"

Leo snapped his fingers with both hands, clicked, and replied coldly: "I, as a person, hate it when people disturb me while I'm eating and playing games, and I'm in a bad mood today, can you get the calf right away?" ”

"Oops, you're crazy! Beat him up! ”

The big man shouted, and the other two raised their fists, and Leo quickly ran out of the store and waved at the three of them.

"Come on."

The short man in his clothes rushed out first, grabbed his clothes and threw them around. Leo dodged the first blow sideways, and threw it out again the second time, then grabbed the clothes directly, and pulled them violently, and the short clothes were taken off. He threw his fist with his teeth and claws, but before his arm could be fully straightened, Leo covered his head with the clothes he had thrown, and then felt a fat blow to his head, and another kick in the stomach, flying a few meters away.

"You bastard!"

The big man in the hard hat followed, scolding and clenching his fists. Leo dodged carelessly, and when the big man was a little tired, he grabbed his right foot in, stepped on the back of the big man's heel, and pushed his right elbow against his chest, and the big man fell backwards. Leo then turned to the left, his left leg flung out like a whip from the bottom up, and kicked the back of the man's neck. This is the move of Fenglin's live killing fist, "Golden Bottle to the Moon", which should have been kicked in the back of the head and hit hard, but Leo's men showed mercy.

The tall, thin man at the end simply held up the mace, shouted and swung it out before Leo could stand firmly!

"Wow!"

Click-

The tall and thin man only felt that something passed in front of him, and when he looked again, the hammer head of the mace was broken and fell to the side, and Leo was holding the wooden knife in his hand, and he knocked lightly on the head of the tall and thin man.

"Get out."

Only then did the three of them understand who they had met, and they crawled and ranced with their heads in their hands. Leo carried the wooden knife back into his clothes, and saw the female shopkeeper leaning against the door, stunned.

"Uh, thank you!"

"It's fine." Leo said casually, returning to his seat to continue eating. The shopkeeper gave him a glass of milk.

"This one is for you."

"Thank you."

"My name is Sharon, are you called Leo?"

"Hmm."

"Speaking of which, what did you say to your friends just now, have you ever practiced martial arts?"

"Yes."

"Hehe, that's pretty good."

Sharon walked behind the counter, fetched rags and mops, and came over to clean up the spilled milk.

"Well, if only I had a bodyguard like you in my store. Usually people who come here are either outsiders or people who work nearby, and they always meet some annoying guests. ”

"Then how do you set up shop here? Pick up hotel leftovers? Leo asked, sipping milk.

This also means, the main ...... Have you noticed the unfinished buildings outside? ”

"You can't pay attention if you don't want to, what's going on?"

"A few years ago, it was planned as a new logistics hub, and the government tendered a lot of companies, and then there was a big construction project. A lot of people who do business have come here when they hear the news. ”

"I see, occupy an area?"

"Yes, when the company moves in in the future, there will definitely be unlimited business opportunities, so everyone comes here to open a store. But ......"

Sharon sighed and put the rag down.

"Three years ago, I don't know what's wrong, but suddenly there was a super-powerful fire, and I heard that many people died. The government has not been able to explain the cause of the fire, and it has caused a storm in the city. All those companies were scared away, leaving behind this large area of unfinished buildings. ”

This is the evil result of the accident at the research institute, and sure enough, the citizens don't know what happened. Leo thought to himself and ate the last loaf of bread on his plate.

"And then the merchants left."

"Well, who wants to stay."

"But you stayed."

"Well, I'm from out of town, and it feels too troublesome to change places, and there is no one to go to."

"Not really, right? What about family? You can go home. ”

"That's right."

Having dried the table and floor, Sharon leaned on the mop and looked at Leo, speaking in a tone that looked like a child.

"You helped me out of trouble, I should be honest. Actually, I still have nostalgia for this place, and there are reasons why I don't want to leave. ”

"Oh."

Leo picked up his cup and drank the milk in one gulp.

"Aren't you going to ask in detail?"

"What do you do with this, I ask?"

"I accidentally listened to what you said to my friend, you can listen to me."

"Forget it, I'm not interested, how much?"

"No, I'll please, it's a thank you gift."

Sharon winked a little mischievously. Leo was also unkind, said "goodbye" and got up and left.

"Wait a minute, Leo."

"What's wrong?"

"Can I ask you a question?"

"What's the problem?"

"What would you think if a person who does good deeds does something bad once?"

"No idea."

Leorio hesitated and left the restaurant.

*****

This morning, Julie and Bob changed places four or five times before and after, blocking passers-by everywhere for interviews. The two of them only moved around the van, and Akya was right next to the van, watching them from afar. After three busy work, the interview finally came to an end.

"Ah, I'm exhausted!"

Julie Ying, who was carrying the microphone, drooped her arm, got into the van, took the mineral water handed by Akya and drank it in a big gulp, Bob also carried the camera, panting and followed, and was about to put the machine into the car, but saw Julie Ying waving at him.

"Go, go and take some empty pictures."

"Huh? It's been almost five minutes since I filmed. ”

"Go to the picture of the building, three minutes, go quickly."

"Aren't they all the same?"

"The same? This is the place where Cullom will give a speech tomorrow. ”

Hearing Julie say this, Bob took a closer look around. This place is a large intersection, and there is an open space in the southeast corner, which is suitable for giving a speech if you set up a platform. Julie threw Bob a bottle of mineral water, and Bob muttered and walked away.

Akya thought that they were both back and could take a break, but now that he had to keep an eye on Bob, he gave up the idea of going to the car to rest.

"Don't bother with it, right?" Zhu Liying said.

"It's the mayor's order."

"Take my fishing orders, huh."

"But it's safe in the morning, maybe this place isn't as dangerous as it seems."

"We're just showing up, and it won't be like this in the afternoon."

Ignoring Julie's complaints, Akeya focused on Bob and looked to the side from time to time, alerting to anyone suspicious.

"Huh?"

A somewhat familiar figure flashed through the crowd in front of him, and Akeya's eyes couldn't help but follow.

"Won't it?"

He took two steps to himself, his eyes eagerly swept around to find the figure and confirm it. When it reappeared, Akeya was convinced, because the other party still looked at her.

"Julie, be careful, I'll come when I go!"

Without waiting for Julie to answer, Akeya ran towards the figure. The other party also noticed him, quickly walked through the crowd, and walked away quickly. Akya stared at it at a faster pace, and as he watched the other party turn into the alley, he trotted in and chased after him.

In the alley, the man was waiting for Akeya to chase after him.

"What a coincidence, Akeya."

"I didn't expect it to be you, Tokar."
