Chapter Ninety-Five: Kidnapping
The living room in Beverly Hills, luxurious and tasteful.
Millennial ear wood furniture from Tatania, Pema elephant leather sofas from the Sidon system of the Binarte Empire, and fine porcelain from the western Republic of Belon all show the identity and taste of the owner.
Sunlight shines on the swimming pool outside the automatic glass doors of the living room, swaying and reflecting in the sparkling waves, reflecting the ripples of water on the ceiling.
Dozens of well-dressed dignitaries sat or stood, only silently looking at the rippling water, and the deathly silence was silent.
There was a sound of footsteps, and twin sisters, who were almost inseparable from Barbara, appeared in front of everyone's eyes. "Miss Barbara will come down soon, and tell everyone to wait a minute." One of the twins said with a blank face. The oppressive atmosphere of "It's been two hours" was broken by the defeated old Miller. He stood up, shook his head, and said, "It seems that there is nothing she can do." ”
Old Miller said, and with the support of the children of the family, he walked tremblingly towards the door.
In just one night, this old man, who was so tough both in personality and body that he seemed to never break, suddenly collapsed mentally and physically. The people in the living room looked at him quietly, with sympathy and schadenfreude in their eyes.
In last night's struggle, Old Miller's losses were the heaviest of the major families. Not only did his grandson have his neck broken alive, but the family guard almost all day, and even his influence in the military has been proven to be no longer the way it used to be in today's few greeting calls. Hastings, after all, is the first person in the military.
If some time ago, his inaction and departure gave Old Miller, the opponents who had been pressed by him, a chance, then after he returned with the aura of a great victory in the Southeast Star Field, and shocked the crowd overnight, Old Miller seemed to have no choice but to retract into his hole"
Hastings, this old man in a wheelchair, who is rarely spoken, and always calm, is like a mountain, insurmountable and invincible.
Even for so long, he was only digging up and supporting a unit that was ridiculed as a militia. However, what he got was ten times more than what these people present had obtained by desperately drilling into the camp.
Now, everyone knows how strong that militia force is. The scheming Hastings isn't picking up garbage, he's digging for treasure!
Obviously, Barbara knew more about the bandit army and the fat man than all the people in the room. She saw the value of the bandit army and the power of the black family and the bandit army after they were united. She tried to suppress, tried to seduce. It's a pity that she is not only one step behind Hastingjin. What's worse is that when she assassinated Francis, she injured Bernadotte!
That Admiral Le Lei is not a famous general with excellent command art and unique tactical style, he is not at the top of the ranking of the best generals of the Fiji League, and it can even be said that he is so ordinary that no one will pay attention. However, he is the dead hole of the fat man. The meaning of the death hole is not that the fat man can die if he moves.
It's who moves and who dies!!
Thinking of this, and seeing the back of old Miller who had already walked to the door, everyone couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Fighting with the old and spicy Hastings, these people present are still a little tender.
From the outbreak of the war to the present, whether internally or externally, people have only lightly laid out their own arrangements on the chessboard, and have not even personally commanded any battle. And here, it's already a complete defeat.
Old Miller was about to walk out of the living room door, when suddenly the door was pushed open. A thin and tall figure appeared at the gate. Pale skin, deep eyes, thin lips with hard lines, and square chin He's back! Facing everyone's eyes, Li Fo slowly walked into the living room.
His stride was still firm and powerful, his body was still straight, and his eyes were still as sharp as an eagle. Failure, decadence, panic, negativity, these emotions never seem to be able to appear in this man of steel. Pires, Sozer and other high-ranking military officials all stood up and saluted, while everyone in the living room stood up.
"Let's sit down," Lever walked through the passage that the crowd had automatically opened, walked to the staircase, and said calmly, "I'll go up and see Barbara." ”
After the people who had sunk down the stairs with almost excited eyes, they sat down one after another. Even old Miller, who had already reached the door, returned to the couch without a sound. Li Fo's appearance was like a shot in the arm, which made everyone feel relieved and relieved.
No matter how Fei Yang's current situation changes, he is finally Alker who comes with the aura of a hundred battles and victories. Li Fo.
His prestige in the eyes of the people is still in full swing, and the troops under his control still occupy half of the military.
With popular support, mecha battleships, and Li Fo, this group is far from failing!
At the very least, they are ahead of the curve in terms of domestic arrangements and presidential elections. It is not so easy for the black family to turn over the clouds and rain in just ten days! Walking through the silent hallway on the second floor, Li Fu stopped in front of Barbara's door and knocked softly on the white wooden door. "Knock Knock*......"
The door opened automatically, and the room with a view of the mountains and forests in the backyard was empty and deserted. Barbara, dressed in pajamas, sat on her knees in front of the semi-circular oversized windowsill, holding a glass of wine in her hand, looking out the window, not knowing what she was thinking.
"I'm back." Li Fo looked at his sister and said softly.
The room was silent.
After a long time, Babagh whispered, "They're dead." "I know." Li Fo said softly. "Finished?" Barbara put down her glass and turned her head sharply: "You know, that's it?" ”
Looking at the tears flickering in Barbara's eyes, Li Fo said calmly: "I will avenge them at all costs." "Then you just do it!! Barbara's tears welled up in her eyes.
She screamed hysterically, shouted, jumped off the windowsill, ran barefoot on the carpet, threw herself into Liver's arms, and wept loudly.
Li Fu gritted his teeth, stroked Barbara's hair, and comforted: "Don't cry, I'll go." I'm going to get rid of the troubles that we should have swept away twenty years ago, in the best way you can think of to relieve our hatred."
"I'm going to kill him with my own hands!" Barbara buried her head in Li Fo's arms and muttered, "I'm going to cut off all his flesh with a knife, peel off his skin, soak him in disinfectant, and let his screams resound for ten days!" "Whatever you want." Li Fohui smiled, lifted Barbara's face, and wiped the tears from her face with his hand: "However, we still have a lot to do before that. ”
He let go of Barbara, stepped aside, and poured two glasses of wine: "You did a good job. Now, we're going to take advantage of that momentum and continue our plans. It's impossible for the other party to know our hole cards, and by the time they do, it's too late. ”
He handed Barbara a glass of wine: "This wine, I have to respect my loveliest puddle of puddles." It's hard to imagine that you have devised such a genius plan. "Is the operation a sycophant?" Barbara burst into tears and smiled, wiped tears from her face with her hands, and took the glass.
"Does my brother need to slap my sister's ass?" Lever scraped Barbara's nose with his hand. looked at her with pity as she wrinkled her nose.
"It's a pity, these allies downstairs don't think so." Barbara pursed her lips contemptuously: "In their simple minds, there is always violence. It's as if you can't kill your opponent, you will die a few people, and if your opponent wins a battle, the sky will fall. ”
"That's why they can only sit downstairs and do what we tell us." Li Fo shook his head amusedly, took a sip of wine, and walked to the windowsill: "The biggest difference between humans and beasts is here. Sometimes, a genius plan is enough to change everything. The beasts, on the other hand, can only rely on their minions and fight. ”
He turned his head and raised his glass at Barbara: "Perhaps, our opponents also think that we will only solve the problem by violent means such as assassination and rebellion. If that's the case, it's really good news. Barbara smirked, walked over to Liver, and stood side by side with him. Next, are you going to do this? Li Fu asked.
"Last night's failure is a failure after all, and this cannot be changed." Barbara took a sip of wine, and her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly: "Today, many people have chosen to join the black camp. It seems that everyone is optimistic about the influence of the black family on the presidential election. ”
"They're going to push for Perez, who is most likely to be a threat to Dawson, and what we can do, of course, is try to give Dawson the lead and use all kinds of means to suppress Perez. The guys downstairs are better at that than we are. What kind of dirty water, they have a way to splash it on Perez. ”
Barbara said as she picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for Li Fo and herself: "In the same way, the Hei family has the gang of guys who have taken refuge, and their energy in this regard will be greater. They would do their best to support Perez while pouring sewage on Dawson. For the next ten days, all the focus will be on this two-man battle. "Do you know what I just did before you came?" Barbara suddenly changed the subject, and looked at Li Fo with a smile on her face. How could I possibly guess what's in your head? Li Fu shook his head.
"I used our men in Chuckner to kidnap the fat man's side." Barbara said hatefully: "One is the mother of the woman who was by his side last night, the other two are scientists from the Leray Federation, one is called Milan, who is the concubine of that guy, and the other is named Boswell, who is his teacher." "Are you going to ......" Li Fohui narrowed his eyes: "Provoke him, and at the same time let him throw a rat trap." In terms of presidential competition, what tricks are not to be used? ”
"Until the election is over, it's hard for me to really feel at ease with such a person." Barbara said coldly: "I want them to think that this is our last resort, and I want to make our people firmly support Dawson to keep the lead, and he will not hesitate to use all means to fight hand-to-hand with the dominant opponent until the end of the election!" ”
"I remember, January 20th is your birthday." Li Fo lightly smashed his wine glass with Barbara: "At ten o'clock in the evening of that day, it was also the time when the voting for the general election ended and the results were announced."
He put his arms around Barbara's shoulders dotingly: "I heard that the Lord of War will hold a party after the presidential election. Until then, though, I'll be here, for my genius sister, to have one of the biggest birthday parties ever – "Celebration of Victory!"
