Chapter 608: Hard-Won Quiet
Lyle was deflated at Alsace's place and said nothing more along the way. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Arthas didn't feel anything, but the way Mullen looked at Lyle was starting to look wrong. As a friend of Li Fatzi, this Lyle is so weird in and out of his words, especially those words just now, the more he listens to it, the more he seems to be sowing discord.
Mullen was a clerk at Barclays before the end of the world, and his long-term office life made him inattentive and even had a beer belly, but it also exposed him to all kinds of workplace darkness. Observing words and feelings, inquiring about such skills, he did not fall behind.
"How did you and Brother Li meet?" Mullen asked, feigning curiosity, not showing his suspicions.
"We've known each other for a long time, not long after the disaster."
Although he asked Lyle, it was Lin Fei who answered him.
Lin Fei didn't lie, he and Li Fatzi met about two weeks after the disaster, which was indeed relatively early. However, his answer was vague and did not answer Malen's question directly.
Refusing to give up, Mullen continued to ask, "Not only are you posting bounty orders everywhere... Missing person notice, and also helped us save people together, it seems that you should be excellent friends, right? ”
Lyle didn't answer, Lin Fei looked embarrassed, and was silent for a while before replying, "Sort of." ”
The first time he met Li Fatzi, he almost didn't beat anyone, and later in order to protect Lin Yan's safety, he also threw Li Fatzi in the zombie pile, no matter how you look at it, the two are not friends.
Lin Fei has always been honest, and it's really a little embarrassing for him to lie like this. And Mullen has the inherent shrewdness of a bank clerk, and he can see at a glance that Lin Fei and Lyle are not quite right.
They must be hiding something...
Probably worried that Ma Lun would show his feet if he continued to ask, Lin Fei immediately changed the topic and asked about the situation of the F Society.
In fact, Lin Fei was really curious about why the alliance leader was in danger, but the alliance members were indifferent, and in the end, only such a few people went to the rescue.
Lyle may have guessed the reason a long time ago, but Lin Fei is not as cunning as him, and he is still somewhat confused about the complicated situation of the refinery.
Mullen was already suspicious of the two of them, so naturally he refused to disclose any information. But the two fools of Arthas did not hesitate and directly told the conflict between them and the Jakarta team, as well as what happened today.
Mullen was in a hurry to listen, but it would be too obvious to stop Arthas at this time, so he could only stare at Arthas constantly. It's a pity that the latter didn't understand what he meant, and was still talking there.
Seeing that Alsace had said everything he could, Mullen had no choice but to give up.
"I see..."
Lin Fei slowed down as he spoke, and zombies began to appear in front of him.
After breaking through this wave of zombies, Lin Fei continued: "So, that guy named Webster is really righteous. ”
In his words and demeanor, it was not difficult to hear that Lin Fei was telling the truth.
It can be seen from Lin Fei's indefatigable attitude to Lyle that Lin Fei is also the kind of person who can decapitate his head and bleed for the sake of righteousness. For Webster, he probably had a feeling of sympathy.
Lyle turned his head to look at Lin Fei and didn't speak.
His previous guess was not wrong, although the F Society looked very powerful on the surface, it was actually a bad hand, and it couldn't be compared to the team he once led.
After the zombies began to appear, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and no one in the car spoke anymore, all looking out the window to observe the surrounding situation.
After going on like this for a while, Mullen suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"Hey, this doesn't seem like the way to the library, does it?"
Obviously, they had already entered the city just now, but after driving for a while, the car actually went out of the city again. Mullen is a native of Norwegian and certainly knows exactly where the municipal library is. Looking at the surrounding street scenes, they are definitely not on their way to the library.
Coupled with the suspicion of these two, Mullen had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly grabbed his weapon to force the car to stop.
"Calm down..."
Lyle was used to seeing the wind and waves, and didn't take Mullen seriously. He threw the cigarette butt out of the window and stared ahead, his eyes deep, like a sword, like fangs.
"When every card in your hand is bad, the only way to win this hand is not to go on a rampage, but to break the rules of the game."
****************
Inside the Demon Refinery, the camp of Li Fatzi's team.
In the huge factory, Webster was the only one left. He sat alone at the door of the factory, with a dog's tail grass in his mouth that he had picked up from nowhere.
The sun shines on the body very comfortably, close your eyes, the whole person is lazy, I haven't enjoyed such silence for a long time. There is no fat man to worry about, there is no pestering Inoue, there is no babbling Arthur, and there is no two fools Alsace...
Arthas left with the rest of his brothers and the two men who claimed to be friends of Fatty.
Anyway, they can't help if they stay, so it's better to send them all to rescue Li Fatzi. If the killer is not found, they will definitely have to clash with the people of Jakarta at that time, which will only increase casualties, and Webster can't bear it.
After being together for so long, Webster no longer had the initial suspicions, but regarded everyone on the team as his own brothers.
The only thing he was sorry for was Fat Li.
My brother is in trouble, but he can't save him...
For now, I can only trust those two people, and I can pin my hopes on them in Alsace.
Before they were about to leave, Webster found the man named Lyle.
"Why did you help Li Fatzi?"
Webster had already seen that these two people were not the friends Li Fatzi had been looking for before, so he simply stopped asking, but directly asked about the other party's purpose. These brothers are very practical, although he also wants to save Li Fatzi, but he doesn't want these brothers to be cheated.
Lyle glanced at Webster and replied lightly, "We're helping ourselves." ”
Lyle had long noticed that Webster was different from the others, this man seemed to be very honest on the outside, but in fact he was very open on the inside. That's why Lyle thinks Webster deliberately didn't save people because he was too smart... And smart people generally spare their lives.
Hearing Lyle's answer, Webster was silent for a while, and then asked again, "You are not friends, but you have a common enemy, right?" ”
Lyle didn't have any expression and didn't answer, which was kind of acquiescence.
"Time is in a hurry, and it is too late to say goodbye to my brothers. I hope you can bring back a lot of them, and there will be wine and meat to welcome them when the time comes. ”
With that, Webster turned and left.
"If you can get Fat Li back, I, Webster, will recognize you as a brother."
Looking back at the departing Webster, Lyle couldn't help but sneer.
He said that he was a coward.
At the same time, Lyle, who was sitting in the car, also recalled this scene before departure.
After listening to Alsace's explanation, Lyle realized that he had misunderstood, and realized the weight of Webster's words.
He doesn't want to evaluate what kind of person Webster is, this kind of thing is the same as love, no one lets you go to the soup, you don't give up, it's all your own willingness, what else else can others say.
***************
The hard-won silence was quickly shattered, and when he heard Erha's scream, Webster knew that it was Yin Diya who had returned. When he opened his eyes, Erha had already pounced on him and kissed him wildly.
It was probably the shadow of Erha eating his own last time, and Webster quickly pushed it aside. Yin Diya then appeared in front of Webster, looking around excitedly, and it didn't take long for her to realize that something was wrong.
"Webb, what about everyone? Why is it all gone? ”
With that, Yin Diya ran into the factory.
"Hey! How come there is no one! ”
Yin Diya quickly ran back to the door and questioned Webster.
"What about my two new brothers? Where did you hide them!? ”
Webster glanced at Yin Diya lazily and replied, "Let's go." ”
"Gone!? You... You... Who gave you permission to do that!? Yin Diya pointed at Webster, and she was about to be angry with him.
Webster didn't want Yin Diya to continue to make noise, and explained directly: "Li is in danger, they went to save people." ”
Hearing that Li was in danger, Yin Diya gave up, and then pointed at Webster and asked, "Then why don't you go and save people?" ”
"I still have unfinished business, and I can't leave."
As soon as Webster finished speaking, he heard footsteps again.
Several of Jakarta's subordinates appeared, led by the black man who had been looking for trouble at the meeting.
Webster glanced at the black man and said coldly, "What are you doing here?" Twenty-four hours have not yet arrived. ”
"Hey, hey..."
The black man smiled and gloated.
"I just heard that you all ran away, so I brought someone to take a look. Actually, I admire you a lot, but you didn't run away with them. ”
"One, they didn't run away. Second, it is I, not them, who promise you. ”
"What did you promise them?"
Yin Diya looked curious, she had just seen that the situation was not good and sneaked away, and she didn't know how Webster solved this matter.
"Hey, whatever. Anyway, when the twenty-four hours come tomorrow, your life will have to be used to pay tribute to Konice! Hahahaha..."
With laughter, the group finally got out.
"Webb, what do you mean by that!? Why would you be honored with Conis!? ”
Webster touched Yin Dia's head and said, "Don't ask, you go to Herschel tonight." Don't come back here until they come back. ”
Yin Diya is such a smart girl, she immediately guessed what was going on from these words of farewell.
"Don't go!"
Yin Diya grabbed Webster's arm, her eyes red.
"You said it, my brother entrusted me to you, I can't leave your sight..."
"Yin Diya, obedient..."
"You said it, to stay within five steps with you at all times. If I don't leave, I won't leave you... Woooooo
Thinking that Webster might die, Yin Diya couldn't hold back anymore and began to cry.
