When the hustle and bustle ended, the drizzle stopped at some point.

The streets were silent late at night, and only the mess of cans on the floor proved the existence of the 'drinking party' that had just happened. The smell of alcohol floating in the air gradually dissipated in the humid wind.

Only the people in the waiko group were still finishing up, handing out the remaining beers and drinking heartily.

"The rain has stopped. ”

Huai Shi sighed softly, turned around, and looked at Ueno who walked in: "Is it going well?"

"Free delivery, where can it not go well. ”

Ueno held the beer can in his hand, ignoring the bandages on his body, raised his head and finished drinking, and wiped his mouth with satisfaction: "It's really a long experience, I haven't seen people here so happy for so many years, it's like a carnival." ”

Huai Shi asked, "Do they look happy?"

Ueno was stunned for a long time, and nodded subconsciously.

"Of course, happy, right?"

So, Huai Shi laughed softly.

In the silence, he picked up the beer in his hand, turned back to the man above the mourning hall, and toasted from afar.

"Cheers. ”

The first step has been taken.

I'll take care of the rest......

.

.

In the silent courtyard of Yingzhou, the sound of water is murmuring, and the bamboo tube is full of flowing water, beating on the stones, and the sound is low.

Under the moonlight, bamboo leaves dance lightly.

The old man standing in front of the pond sprinkled fish food, causing the koi in the pond to swell and compete for food, and the scene of bright red and white was really pleasing to the eye.

The agile Shiba Inu lay on the edge of the pool, curiously probing its paws, but was splashed by the swinging fishtail.

In this way, the old man quietly listened to the report of his subordinates behind him.

"Sounds like an unruly mad dog......"

After a long time, Sosuke Shengtenmu slowly bowed his head, sprinkled the last fish food in his hand, lowered his head and rubbed Shiba Inu's ears, and said worriedly: "We Taro can't do that." ”

The Shiba Inu, named Taro, looked up blankly, grinned, and wagged his tail at the old man.

"Alright, let's go play in the yard and stop bullying those fish. ”

The old man rubbed the face of the Shiba Inu, drove it away from the fish pond, and watched it run away, and his expression became serious.

"It is true that a paper amateur dares to offend the majesty of the Alliance, and it is indeed an unforgivable sin. ”

He turned his head and looked indifferently at the man behind him, prostrate on the ground: "But there is only one thing, he is not wrong, Kitahara-kun."

It's really your fault, isn't it?"

Kitahara was on the ground, shivering.

"Because of your delay and contempt, it led to the destruction of the Tiger King Group. ”

Sheng Tianmu said, "Actually, I don't bother to care about the life and death of those two guys from the Saka family, they violated the law and were contaminated with forbidden drugs, even if there is no Huaizhi group, sooner or later someone will use other excuses to get rid of them...... But one thing is beyond doubt.

Kitahara-kun, because of you, the majesty of the five bigwigs has been compromised. ”

He said, "This is the biggest mistake you have ever made." ”

"Below, ...... below"

Kitahara was pale, swallowing and spitting, trying to justify, but under the overlook of Shengtian's purpose, he couldn't speak, and in the end, he closed his eyes in despair.

"Under the ...... willing to accept punishment"

"Whether you are willing or not, punishment will come, because you have violated the rules, Kitahara-kun, even I will not open the net. ”

The old man lowered his head, looked down at his subordinates on the ground, looked at the vacant tail finger of his right hand, and suddenly said, "Eight fingers, it shouldn't affect retirement life, right?"

Kitahara was stunned, in disbelief. But immediately, he soon kowtowed frantically on the ground.

"Thank you, thank you for your magnanimity......!

He expressed his gratitude with gratitude, and he was already incoherent.

"Alright, let's go down. ”

Sheng Tianmu retracted his gaze and waved his hand casually.

In the open courtyard, a respectful attendant came from afar with a plate and presented the old man with what had just been delivered.

A can of ...... Beer.

The cheapest twilight on the market, as if it had just been removed from the plastic package, still had scratches on something, and even the packaging was not very good.

"Do you even have a jar of decay?"

Sheng Tianmu was stunned, and then laughed softly: "It's so good, I didn't expect there to be beer at night." ”

casually, picked up the can, opened the can, and was not afraid of the poison in it, after raising his head and taking a big sip, he clicked his mouth: "I can't even give an ice cube, and the taste is average......

He paused, looked back into the distance, in the shadow of the bamboo forest, and raised his voice to ask, "Hey, guest, do you want to be together?"

Under the shadow of the bamboo forest, a sloppy middle-aged man walked out.

The messy blonde hair was casually thrown behind his head, a little curly, wearing an ill-fitting trench coat and a scruffy beard, like a homeless man everywhere in the Americas.

But he was holding a can of the same beer in his hand and shook it towards Sheng Tianmu.

"I have. ”

"Young people nowadays are really generous. ”

Sheng Tianmu smiled softly, took another sip, raised his hand, poured the beer into the pond, and said to the fish competing for food: "Since you have a share, you can also have a little, and taste the pride and courage of young people." ”

A can of beer quickly disappeared in the fish's mouth.

Only the empty jar was thrown back into the plate, and the attendant left silently.

Under the moonlight, Sheng Tianmu shook his hand and asked casually, "Lawrence, can you tell me what you Green Sun think about this matter?"

Lawrence replied in a deep voice, "Fujimoto is our member. ”

Sheng Tianmu corrected: "Once." ”

"It makes no difference. One day is a green day, and a lifetime is a green day. ”

Lawrence said, "What the paper does is nothing more than blood for blood." Can't he understand when it's time to get revenge, then put down the knife in front of the enemy, and then go to golf happily together, right?"

The homeless man, who represents Green Day, said, "It's not against the rules. ”

"Wrong. ”

Sheng Tianmu shook his head, looked back at the homeless man, and told him word by word: "That's wrong, Mr. Lawrence!"

"We set the rules, of course they have to serve us. ”

The old man, one of the five bosses, said, "Although the old man has no opinion, the little ghost of the Arakawa family is angry and jumps to his feet...... Besides, this kind of thing that shakes the authority of the five bigwigs cannot be allowed to go. It must be dealt with quickly and strictly. ”

Lawrence shrugged his shoulders indifferently, drank his beer, and asked casually, "If that's the case, then why are you drinking his wine?"

"It's because we drank alcohol that we have the talk now. ”

Sheng Tianmu snorted: "Today's young people have become powerful, which makes people feel terrible. The appearance of not knowing the height of the sky is enviable and frightening.

Where is this mad dog? It's clearly a wild wolf who wants to mark the territory and tell the world when he first arrives...... Courage alone is not enough, though.

Aren't there enough people with courage?" Sheng Tianmu looked back and shrugged his shoulders with pity: "But after so many years, the five big guys are still the five big guys, but the paper group may not last until tomorrow." ”

"I hope that the five big guys can handle this matter properly. Lawrence said, "Green Sun is very optimistic about him, to be exact, the Grand Commander is very optimistic about him." ”

This time, Sheng Tianmu was finally silent, stunned, as if he had heard something unbelievable: "Does a guy like the Great Commander who has no one in his eyes know how to take care of his juniors?"

"yes. “

Lawrence said, "Because he's worth it." ”

In the silence, Sheng Tianmu rubbed his eyebrows, sighed and waved his hand: "Okay, then he still has a choice - whether to be punished by the five bigwigs, or to cut off a hand to apologize to the alliance." “

"Do you think that kind of young man with a heart higher than the sky would agree?" asked Lawrence.

"Then why do you think I care?"

Sheng Tianmu asked indifferently, "He insulted Kitahara, insulted the envoy of the Alliance, he offended my face, Lawrence, if it wasn't for this glass of wine, how could I look at him squarely?"

I've been waiting here for so long, waiting for you to come, and for the sake of Midori's face, I can help you convince Arakawa not to be held accountable as if nothing happened. But the alliance will not be acknowledging the identity of the Huai Paper Group. ”

"If Huai Zhi doesn't understand the value of the Alliance, then the Anesthetic Chase Alliance will no longer be his friend. “

Sheng Tianmu said: "When the time comes, no one needs to do it, and the Liuad and the K-word party will have nothing left of their scum." ”

Lawrence was unmoved, just bowed his head and drank his beer quietly.

Everyone has been dealing with each other for so many years, where does he still not know what style this old ghost is, not so much Jidao, but a businessman, who is scary and scary, and will not do anything that will lose money.

"Having said all this, I don't get to the point. ”

Lawrence finished his beer, looked up and asked, "What about the 'but' in the back?" ”

Sheng Tianmu suddenly laughed softly in his gaze, and spread his hands: "Yes, just like you said, there are always 'buts', but not everyone is qualified to have them, he must prove that he is worthy." ”

As he spoke, he took out an envelope from his bosom and threw it at it.

Lawrence raised his hand, and the envelope landed in front of him, suspended in the air, dismantling itself, revealing two of the documents, as well as a majestic photograph of a middle-aged man.

Dressed in a white robe and holding a bright staff, he looks indescribably sacred.

Lawrence narrowed his eyes, recognizing the face:

"The Illuminati?"

"yes. ”

Sheng Tianmu said, "Recently, there have been abnormal changes in the upper echelons of the Illuminated Church, and after the change of the main priest, the style suddenly became radical and began to infiltrate the inner circle of Tamba secretly.

It is said that many fools have become their believers, and even the wife of the Chiba family has been involved...... The struggle between the second room and the big room is really ugly.

When I found the shrine from the room, the face of that guy in Chiba was green, hahahaha. ”

Sheng Tianmu laughed gloatingly, happy to see his allies unlucky, but Lawrence didn't laugh along.

Just quietly waiting for him to finish.

"It's fun to watch the jokes, but the Allies have to reciprocate their revenge. ”

Sheng Tianmu said casually, "Since you are so optimistic about Huai Paper, please ask him to give full play to his instinct as an extreme path and cause some trouble for the other party."

Of course, at your own risk, the alliance will never admit it. ”

After speaking, he smiled: "If you can save face for that guy in Chiba, you have proved your strength and importance, not only will the alliance not be held accountable, but maybe you can make that guy owe you a favor." ”

Lawrence put away the envelope and didn't refuse, but he didn't bother to save him any face: "I owe you a favor, right?"

"I don't deny it. ”

Sheng Tianmu spread his hands, and in the night wind that was gradually getting colder, he suddenly said, "Have you heard? It is said that the 'General Nothing Order' will be issued from above." ”

Lawrence was silent for a moment, then slowly bowed his head.

The situation is overwhelmingly unfavorable for today's alliance......

The so-called 'total order of nothing' is one of the traditions that has been handed down following the famous edict in the history of Yingzhou.

In fact, there are only four words.

- The world is peaceful.

But in fact, it has nothing to do with Taiping, but to let the swords on the ground.

During the seven-day command, all disputes and contradictions that could not be put on the table could be resolved in secret. As long as it does not involve the superficial stability of society, no matter how many people die or how bad the damage is caused, the authorities will not hold them accountable.

"It's like a license of business for a dog ring, right?

When it comes to the consumption tax policy of the whole country, it depends on the victory or defeat of a group of yakuza and the life and death, even if I am old like this, sometimes I feel that the world is too ridiculous and ridiculous. Either way, we don't have a choice. ”

Sheng Tianmu wrenched his fingers and said, "The K-shaped party and the foolish company are said to have been very close recently, and there should be a big move." However, the Hexad and the Great Circle have begun to shrink in an all-round way, and I am afraid that they do not intend to mix.

As for the Iron Kings, those lackeys have been coveting the inner circle of Tambo for too long...... The big guys above have made heavy bets, but no one cares for us, Mr. Lawrence. ”

Sheng Tianmu said categorically: "Once the Battle of Kyoto begins, I'm afraid we will bear the brunt of the siege...... At this time, however, the alliance was still in disarray, with the five bigwigs doing their own thing, and some people even preparing for a riot.

Time is limited, and we have to reunite everyone...... Of course, it would be nice to be under my leadership. ”

Sheng Tianmu patted his empty hand and sighed softly: "The so-called favor is just an excuse, I want to find a chance to have a good talk with the people of the Chiba family."

If the alliance can be united by this, I would like to acknowledge the contribution of the Waiji Group to it. ”

Speaking of this, the old man grinned and smiled: "If he is not satisfied with this, let alone anything else, as long as he can establish enough merits, it doesn't matter if the old man marries the ugly girl in the family to him." ”

Lawrence was stunned and raised his eyes: "Pear Blossom is back?"

"yes, I don't listen to anything. Sheng Tianmu showed a smug smile: "Don't look at her young age, but she is not inferior to her mother's brave daughter...... Would you like to see you later?"

"Excuse me, there's too much to do. ”

Lawrence withdrew his gaze, pulled his felt hat from his bosom, and glanced at him one last time: "And, don't think I don't know how much of those words were alarmist.

You old ghost, even at this time, are still thirsting for more power......"

Sheng Tianmu asked rhetorically, "Isn't that good, my friend?" ”

"No, that's not better. ”

Lawrence turned and disappeared into the darkness.

In the silence, Sheng Tianmu quietly stared at the calm pond in front of him, and for a long time, turned to leave.

.

.

Late at night, Huai Shi woke up from a dream and opened her eyes.

I saw the figure in the corner of my new bedroom, and I didn't know when it appeared.

He slowly propped himself up and looked over, "Who?"

"Lawrence, the guy you called. The homeless man who smoked took off his hat and sighed softly: "If you want me to say, your recent affairs have been a bit big and troublesome." ”

"You mean the Tiger King Group?"

Lawrence shook his head: "I mean the matter of the water company, it will only incur official disgust in vain......"

Huai Shi was amused, "Is it necessary to care about those people who are unhappy just because they have clean water to drink?"

Lawrence didn't answer, just put the envelope on the table in front of him, "The verdict of the Big Five has come down." ”

"Is it a severed hand or an expulsion?"

Huai Shi asked.

Lawrence gave him an unexpected look and shook his head: "There is a task that the Wai Paper team needs to complete to avoid punishment. ”

"Do you do dirty work? Sounds more troublesome than a broken hand. Huai Shi looked at the information and photos in the unsealed envelope: "Kill? or what?"

"You are free to do whatever you want, but the Alliance will not bear any consequences for you. To put it simply, if you do this, you will offend the Illumination Church, and then hundreds of thousands of believers in Yingzhou will try to make you a thorn in the side. ”

Illuminate the Church.

The new religion that spread throughout Southeast Asia has spread like a fish in water in countries where religion is legal, such as Yeongju and Silla, and many of its followers are in high positions.

Unlike something that can't be seen in the dark, the power on the surface and the status in Kyoto are amazing, not to mention the large number of internal sublimators.

If one is not operated well, the paper group will be crushed to pieces......

"That's it?"

Huai Shi smiled confidently and put away the envelope, "I know, leave it to me." ”

Lawrence was also stunned: "Don't you need help?"

"I'll mention it if necessary. ”

Huai Shi smiled as she watched Lawrence disappear into the darkness.

After a long time, I looked around and made sure that there was no one around, and my face suddenly collapsed - after a little thought and careful analysis, I felt that this wave of operations was not good, let alone developed and expanded, I am afraid that it will be cool on the spot......

For now, there is only one way left!

He closed his eyes, folded his hands, and prayed sincerely.

"—Ella Aemon save me!!"

On the other end of the communication, Ai Qing, who had stayed up late and worked overtime to clean up for someone until now, had not slept for more than thirty hours, picked up the water cup with an expressionless face and took stomach medicine.

Then, indifference rolled his eyes.

It's hopeless, wait for death, farewell!
