Chapter XVII: The Elder Brother and the Younger Brother
Watching Robert drive away, Landau raised his eyebrows and said, "Be decisive enough to leave no overnight revenge." I like it. A taxi was then summoned and left.
Back at the Continental Hotel, Lan Dao, who was standing by the window waiting for information, did not expect to be waiting for the waiter's question, "Sir, do you want to use the gold coins in the company's account?" ”
Landau glanced at the waiter, holding a well-crafted cocktail in his hand, and asked rhetorically, "Of course, don't I have the right to dominate?" ”
"Of course, Mr. Landau. You have ample access to the company's gold, and Ms. Fawkes has reported that. However, your company has not yet decided on a name. The company account can be used only after the name has been determined. Thank you for your understanding. ”
Looking at the bustling New York at night, Landau fell into thought, and he looked up at the sky without paying attention.
There is no moon, and the stars in the night sky are scattered everywhere, and along the direction of the Big Dipper, the North Star shines brightly.
"Night Voyage Star." Landau turned and stared at the waiter with a smile on his face.
"No problem, sir, we'll register the name right away." The waiter who received the reply turned and left, and quickly went back with the information, "Sir, this is the information you wanted." ”
Landau returned to the room with the information and found that the room had been cleaned, but it was still stereotyped and disordered, and it had not been cleaned up by the cleaners.
Passing by the stereotypes that were placed as works of art, Landau walked over to the couch and sat down, carefully checking the information on Brother Christian and Robert.
"Frank Martin, who specializes in hand-to-hand combat and long-range point shooting, is a retired Blackwater employee. At first, he worked as a professional escort, and was complained by his employer many times, and then was expelled from the industry because of "seeing the light of day...... Currently in the service of Raymond Beroclec. ”
Seeing the last description, Landau couldn't help laughing, and took out his mobile phone casually and dialed it, "Andy, I hope I didn't disturb your good deeds." ”
"Of course not, my dear friend. This time to find it, there must be something wrong? Andy's tone revealed surprise that was hard to hide.
Guessing that Andy was now facing those treasures, Landau put down the papers in his hand and leaned back on the couch, "Let me guess, you're looking at that batch of things right now, transporting them out little by little." What a moving gem, what a sparkling gem. “
Andy's laughter came from the phone, "Hahaha, you guessed right but not right. You know best what that stuff is, how could it be that we are staring there, and the CIA can't do it. I'm just in charge of what I didn't finish and take over the goods. ”
It seems that the people in the military and even the president have a piece of the pie, which is very good!
Landau, who got the good news, was in a much better mood, "Very well, my friend." I'm so happy for you. Speaking of things that haven't been done yet, I have a small request. ”
"Just say, my friend."
Landau glanced at Frank's avatar, and said lightly: "Raymond has hired a group of people, including one named Frank Martin, who used to be a mercenary. He worked a little bit for me. ”
Landau, who received an affirmative answer, said goodbye to Andy cordially, hung up the phone and walked towards the bathroom.
Pushing open the door of the bathroom, Landau, who had slept beautifully all night, looked at himself in the mirror and felt that his face had become a little more delicate.
As if he had enough sleep, Landau tidied up his appearance and arrived at the corner of Franklin Street in the casual clothes he had just bought yesterday.
There was no black buddy who didn't have long eyes to come up and say hello, and there was no need to talk nonsense, Landau walked straight into Christian's office and sat down.
Christian, who was sitting at the desk, put away the papers and politely asked the old couple in front of him to leave.
Landau already understands that dealing with Christian can't be bypassed, and it's best to come directly, "Unfortunate news, your brother is in big trouble. Big trouble that almost no one was able to solve, and his employer's goal was the Capitol. ”
Seeing Christian put down the pen in his hand, Landau then added, "Your brother has already gotten the money, and the FBI has been eyeing them for a long time. ”
Franklin in the morning is out of step with the bustle of New York, and there are even birdsong outside the window, everything is so laid-back, and Landau's mood is very relaxed.
After feeling like he had waited for almost thirty seconds, Landau stood up directly, "You may be wondering why this is such a coincidence. It doesn't matter, maybe tonight, or tomorrow, you'll be able to see it on the news. ”
Landau walked out and said, "Heroic FBI agents, led by Director Andy Duffrey, have succeeded in stopping a group of terrorists who are trying to blast the Capitol. ”
Landau, who had already walked out of the door, still heard the voice he wanted, "Stop!" ”
Landau turned around and clasped his hands, leaned against the door, and teased, "Oh? Christian Archaccountant, don't know what's the matter with you? ”
Christian crossed his hands, put it on the table, buried his head and said in a deep voice, "I want to meet my brother first." The younger brother who will not be sent to court. ”
"Christian, you see, things have changed." Landau lowered his arm, closed the door with his hand, and walked up to Christian, "Yesterday is yesterday, today is today!" ”
Landau propped his hands on the table, rested his head on Christian's head, and said, "Until then, I can trust you and let you see your brother first." Because, it's not a problem at all. ”
"But! You have to make a promise now, your damned, troublesome brother, to be safe. You'll be able to see him, too. ”
Christian stubbornly raised his head and looked at Landau, "My brother is fine, he doesn't deserve to die." ”
Choked by Christian's brain circuitry, Landau took a deep breath and mentally advised himself, "He's smart, he's good at managing finances, he's a talent." Talent is like this. ”
The Christian defense, which was staring at Landau, suddenly collapsed, revealing a hint of cowardice, "I don't want to lose my brother. Holding his head, his voice trembled, "You win, I'll join." ”
Landau, who knew that Christian's father died for him and that his younger brother was his only family member, looked at Christian on the verge of collapse in front of him.
Landau, who walked up to him, pulled out one of his hands and shook it with himself, "Listen, Christian. Since you have opted in, then I am your boss. ”
Landau pulled Christian out of his seat and hugged Christian hard, "Now, your boss has to help the employees solve their problems." Do you know what employees do? Christian. ”
No response.
"Now, you need to calm your heart and accept the first assignment I gave you."
