Chapter 129: Co-optation
After listening to Wu Mian's explanation, Xiang Long fell on the table with a pig's trotter in his hand and an expression of disbelief: "So you mean to say that I have been fighting side by side with you for so long, and you have always been the target I want to find?" ”
"I know it's hard to understand, but have you ever thought about me? I have cooperated with the Worker Bee Organization before, and I have hindered the plans of the Hidden Dragon Organization many times, and compared to you, I am against myself everywhere, is this more incomprehensible? ”
After Wu Mian finished talking about his feelings, he immediately added: "Before I lost my memory, I was a very cautious person, with my life circle, it was difficult to make friends, and it was impossible for strangers to easily contact me and know my identity. So this amnesia is a disaster for me, but it is also an opportunity for me to see the world in a different capacity. ”
Xiang Long didn't understand what Wu Mian meant: "Why are you telling me this? ”
"Because I think you're a friend." Wu Mian sat up straight: "Although your strength is relatively weak, I always remember the fact that you risked your life to save me." You just said that you want to assassinate me, not because you have a grudge against me, but because you want to accept a stronger challenge, so there is no fundamental contradiction or conflict between us. I hope you can come to me and work for me. ”
Xiang Long suddenly realized: "So the purpose of you looking for me to eat this meal today is to recruit me." ”
"To be exact, I'm here to save you." Wu Mian shook his head lightly: "Hidden Dragon is a very mysterious organization, and my identity is the biggest secret of this organization. According to the rules of Hidden Dragon, you know my identity, and there is only one way to die, but I don't want to kill you, so being adopted by me is your only choice. ”
"I didn't hear it as a good remark." Xiang Long wiped his hands with a tissue: "So you still have a sentence that you haven't said, that is, if I don't accept your adoption today, there will only be a dead end, right?" ”
Wu Mian was noncommittal: "Even if I want to let you go, others won't give you a way to live." But when I tell you this, it's definitely not a threat, it's that I really need you. ”
Xiang Long showed a playful smile: "I have investigated the Hidden Dragon Organization for so long, and I know you a little, although the Hidden Dragon is not famous, its combat effectiveness is not weak, and there is no shortage of masters under it, you say that you need me, I doubt it." ”
"As I said, even within the Hidden Dragon Organization, few people know my identity, and the Hidden Dragon Organization is about to transform and prepare for corporate restructuring, I need a bodyguard by my side, and you are the person I fancie."
Wu Mian saw doubts flashing in Xiang Long's eyes, and confessed: "Have you heard of nine places? ”
Xiang Long responded without thinking: "It's the notorious spy agency that specializes in capturing synths?" ”
"It seems that your impression of me is all negative." Wu Mian smiled dumbly: "My other identity is the director of the Ninth Division. ”
"Holy!" Xiang Long was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly realized: "I said why this Hidden Dragon Organization is so difficult to investigate, and it has been doing it for a long time, because you have been using the power in your hands to provide protection for it, which can explain why the Hidden Dragon Organization is doing shady business, but it has been able to survive peacefully for so long." ”
"Nine details, it's far more complicated than you think, this is the only institution in the coalition government's policing system that allows the existence of synths, and my cronies around me are all synths."
Wu Mian shook his red wine glass: "The background of the Nine Divisions is the same as that of the Hidden Dragon Organization, and it is also a top-secret organization, even more mysterious than the Hidden Dragon, so people in the outside world almost don't know about my two identities." The Hidden Dragon Organization is about to be whitewashed, and I will frequently appear in formal situations, and the synths around me are difficult to pass the detection in public places, and letting them follow will have a negative impact, so I need a master among natural people, and you are the target of my eye. ”
"I don't think it's an invitation." Xiang Long raised his eyebrows and looked at Wu Mian: "Your intentions are already obvious, I can only choose between death and compromise, right?" ”
"It's true, if you refuse me, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of here alive." Wu Mian nodded: "No matter what you think, but I really want to recruit you to work for me, because you and I met without any interests, and it is also a rare friend that I can make without worrying about letting down my guard and not calculating, let you follow me, and I can rest assured that I will hand over my safety to you." ”
Xiang Long looked at Wu Mian suspiciously: "According to what you said, your previous identity was so prominent, don't you have your own bodyguard?" ”
Wu Mian gently tapped his forehead with his hand: "Do you know why I lost my memory?" It was because my previous bodyguard Wei Ling betrayed me. As you said, my status is very prominent, but it also comes with great dangers, and the people around me are also facing all kinds of challenges. ”
"I've been talking to you for so long, and the only thing you have attracted me to is probably this one. I chose to be a killer in itself to meet a higher challenge, and if I follow you, it seems that it can meet my pursuit. ”
Xiang Long got up and stretched out his palm to Wu Mian: "Happy cooperation, boss?" ”
Wu Mian smiled: "Don't you ask about the treatment?" ”
"I can't even save my life, can't I ask for my life first?" Xiang Long smiled slyly: "I don't have much pursuit of money, and with your status, the people around me will definitely not be treated badly." ”
Wu Mian got up and shook Xiang Long's hand with a smile: "Welcome to Hidden Dragon." ”
……
Xiang Long's successful entry into the gang can be regarded as a matter of Wu Mian's heart.
Before he lost his memory, the focus of his work was all on the Nine Divisions and the Hidden Dragon Organization, and now that the Hidden Dragon Organization had begun to transform, Wu Mian's focus would naturally shift to the Nine Divisions.
His lost mechanical spine and the loss of a large number of nanobots meant a lot to him.
On the night of the incident, he was attacked by an assassination attempt against him by the Golden Horse Company.
With the ability of the Golden Horse Group, I am afraid that the news of his return has already been known by now, and the reason why he has not moved for so long is precisely because he has nine umbrellas on his head.
Therefore, the most important thing for Wu Mian to do is to stabilize his nine places.
On the side of the sixth district, he had already reached a binding with Gu Xiangming, paving the way for the transformation of the Hidden Dragon Organization, and after the acquisition of Xiang Long, he was ready to meet with Zhou Tongxun to meet Director Feng of the Ministry of Finance.
