Chapter Twenty-Seven: Night Talk
Su Lan and Zhang Xuan were taken outside the tent to dry, and after receiving Xiao Ji's assurance, the foreigner gave up the attempt to handcuff Zhang Xuan, but still took all the murder weapons on her and Su Lan. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info Xiao Ji is now explaining the situation in fluent English to foreigners, occasionally glancing at Su Lan and them, Zhang Xuan glared at them in response.
Su Lan raised her forehead, and said in her heart, Zhang Xuan, can you not be so naΓ―ve: "If you come, you will be safe." β
"This traitor." Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth and said.
"I really don't know if a traitor is a traitor or not......" is probably the one who has been coerced and used since the beginning, and Su Lan doesn't have much ill feeling towards Xiao Ji's temporary backlash. And he always felt that Xiao Ji's purpose was by no means so simple, what was revealed now was only the tip of the iceberg, and standing in Sun Yue's team or defecting was just a means he took to achieve his goal.
He silently listened to the conversation between Xiao Ji and those people. Xiao Ji basically told the truth, firstly because there was no need to lie, and secondly, because Sun Yue's team had a lot of overlap with the foreigner's team, and the lies were easy to debunk. What surprised him was the attitude of foreigners towards Xiao Ji. During the whole conversation, they did not refute or even question any of the conditions or requirements put forward by Xiao Ji, and it is not too much to describe them as subordinates listening to the report of their superiors.
However, Xiao Ji's boss, Mr. Zhao, cooperated with Sun Yue, and in the process of rescue, Xiao Ji killed several foreigners in front of Su Lan. Are all these guys selectively amnesia? Or did Xiao Ji really fight with foreigners from the beginning, and everything before was a disguise of sacrificing other people's lives?
"My bosses look scared of your friend." Zhong Zhaolin saw that there were two more Chinese faces all of a sudden, and they were both handsome men and beautiful women, although he had a bad record of knocking him unconscious just now, he couldn't help but come over, "Who is he?" β
"His surname is Ji, is-" Su Lan replied casually, and suddenly remembered something in the middle of speaking, and stopped talking.
"What is it?" Zhong Zhaolin asked.
"The standard of your words is too clumsy." Zhang Xuan interjected coldly.
"Oh, the girl is wronged, I'm just a guide who doesn't know anything and has been deceived, how can I say anything."
"Hmph."
Zhang Xuan's attitude made Zhong Zhaolin a little stunned, Su Lan didn't bother to pay attention, and took advantage of the rare silence to continue to listen attentively to the conversation between Xiao Ji and foreigners. The conversation was basically coming to an end, and the red-haired foreigner Black finally asked a question about Su Lan, and Xiao Ji's answer made Su Lan sit up straight and stare at Xiao Ji with a look of surprise on her face.
What the hell does that guy know?!
"Hey, what did you hear, a shocked look on your face." When Zhang Xuan saw Zhong Zhaolin walking away, he elbowed Su Lan and asked quietly, "Did he really sell us?" β
"......" Su Lan didn't know where to start for a while, and after thinking about it, he said, "I don't think he's defective." Xiao Ji said that the things are under the lake, and you have to use diving equipment to get there, so she hopes to cooperate with them. Xiao Ji provides news, they provide equipment, killing two birds with one stone. β
"Sold us easily, he killed two birds with one stoneβ"
"Do old Qiao and Mr. Zhao have diving equipment?"
"Nope."
"That's not the end, if I change me, I will choose to cooperate temporarily." Su Lan's voice was quite cold, "And the cooperation price he offered includes providing us with medical services." I don't know how you are, anyway, I've been climbing trees and beating for the past two days, and I'm almost unable to survive the injuries on my body. β
"Since it's all good news, why are your expressions and tone so bad?"
The last sentence that Xiao Ji said before leaving the foreigner came to mind, Su Lan reached out and wiped her face, adjusted her expression and stood up: "I'm going to get a sleeping bag, do you want me to get one for you?" β
After a foreign doctor gave Su Lan medical care, they went back to sleep one after another. Su Lan, Zhang Xuan, Zhong Zhaolin and Jack were arranged in a tent, and Zhong Zhaolin fell asleep as soon as he dipped his sleeping bag, snoring loudly. Zhang Xuan's vigilant expression with her eyes open at the beginning lasted for several hours, and finally her facial expression as if she couldn't stand it gradually softened, and she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Three o'clock in the morning. Su Lan watched the moonlight through the zipper gap of the tent dance on Zhang Xuan's thick eyelashes, and suddenly felt a softness in her heart.
This woman, after sleeping and unloading the day's swagger, looks quite feminine.
Su Lan thought about it, unzipped her sleeping bag and crept out of her sleeping bag. Zhong Zhaolin's snoring became the best cover-up, Su Lan wanted to sneak out without being discovered, but when he stepped out of the tent, a male voice asked coldly: "Su Lan, what are you doing out?" β
Su Lan turned around, it was the Chinese named Jack. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Su Lan shrugged: "Just go to the toilet, you see how I can escape with these two brushes alone." β
"Go and get back."
"Oh." Su Lan answered, lifted the curtain and walked outside the tent. Because of the large lake and the surrounding vegetation, the basin has a mild and humid climate at night, not at all as cold as it is on the ground. Su Lan quickly relieved her hand, and she didn't have much interest in sitting alone by a lake full of poisonous insects and snakes and looking at the stars, and was just about to walk back and raise her eyes to see a person sitting on the treetops: "Xiao Ji?!" β
Xiao Ji glanced down at him, jumped down from the treetops with a loose hand, and landed silently.
Su Lan thought to herself that the first time he knocked himself unconscious and transported him to Xishan, he also stayed in the tree, this guy was a monkey in his previous life, and he had such a strange preference for tree branches: "Aren't you in a tent with Black?" You casually go out in the middle of the night and they don't care about you? I'm not afraid that you'll run away alone or something...... Also, they can't find out at all. β
Under the moonlight. Xiao Ji raised his eyes to look at him, his blue-gray eyes were as smooth and clear as jade, Su Lan was stunned again, and it took half a second to remember his most important question: "What did you and Black mean by the last sentence?" β
"Which sentence?"
"Don't be sloppy with me. What do you mean, 'Su Lan's memory has been tampered with, and he doesn't know the key information you want'? β
"It's literal." In this regard, Xiao Ji didn't want to say much, and walked in the direction of the tent with his hands in his pockets. Su Lan ran to Xiao Ji to stop him: "You wait, make it clear." What does it mean to have a memory tampered with? β
Xiao Ji frowned, and finally stopped: "Do you feel that a large piece of your memory is missing?" β
Memory loss or something...... Su Lan thought about it and said, "When I first saw you in Xishan, I didn't remember what saved you ten years ago, and Zhang Xuan had no impression of you, what do you mean by this?" β
"More than that."
"What else? By the way, not only do I not remember you, but I don't even remember that I was at the same table with Zhang Xuan. Zhang Xuan obviously remembers me, but she has no impression of you until now. Why is this happening? Has someone brainwashed us or something? What went wrong? Why are weβ"
Xiao Ji raised his hand to signal Su Lan to be quiet, and then Jack and Zhang Xuan came out of the tent. Jack looked at Su Lan and then at Xiao Ji, and said in a weird manner: "Yo, two, such a good day and such a night, I made an appointment to watch the stars together." β
Xiao Ji left the others behind and walked in the direction of the Black tent without saying a word. Jack watched Xiao Ji disappear into the tent, his eyes moved to Su Lan, and his playful eyes slowly became sharp.
Su Lan knew that Jack was doubting herself, and she was afraid that someone would have to follow her when she went to the toilet in the future, and she couldn't explain anything, so she ignored Zhang Xuan's questioning gaze and went back to the tent without saying a word.
