Ten minutes later, in the conference room.

Gloria rubbed her head a little distressedly, feeling a little dizzy.

At her age, it is still a little difficult for her to see this kind of information comparable to "after-school homework", compared to others, the nutrition of her brain is estimated to have grown elsewhere, and her brain is really not as bright as a young person.

She raised her head, looked at the people who were concentrating on the materials, and an idea sprung up in her heart, so she asked the others softly:

"It's a little late now, do you want a supper? If I want to eat, I can go out and buy some back. ”

"Supper? Mom, do you have a treat? Hearing that there was a late-night snack, David looked up at his mother almost reflexively.

Seeing her son react so violently, Gloria's smile gradually subsided a little, and her gentle expression became a little stiffer.

David scratched his head, and also understood that his performance just now was a little rude, so he smiled awkwardly, wanting to relieve his mother's distress.

Gloria glared at David with some reproach, and continued to ask the others with a smile:

"It's my treat, just say what you want to eat, after all, if we don't finish reading these materials tonight, Lin Mo shouldn't let us go back to rest."

The crowd was convinced.

Although Lin Mo usually does not embarrass them in terms of salary and daily work, it can even be said that if they have no tasks, they will have no problem lying flat at home.

But if they encounter a task, then no matter what urgent matters they have at hand, Lin Mo will ask them to familiarize themselves with the plans and intelligence materials sent to them in the shortest possible time.

Not only that, once the plan was changed at short notice, even if it was a big night, Lin Mo would ask them to memorize it within a few hours.

In the face of such strict measures, everyone knows the reason why his boss did this, that is, he is very good at finding the right "time", and when the time is right, he will immediately ask everyone to act, almost without warning.

"Thank you, ma'am, I'll just have a bite to eat, by the way, I remember I haven't finished my drink at the last party,"

Kitagawa Hao pondered for a while and did not refuse Gloria's request, and he also saw that this lady was "inviting supper" on her face, but she was actually thinking carefully about going out to blow the wind.

Gloria continued to look at the two women at the table and asked with a smile, "What about you?" ”

Sasha and Lucy looked at each other, nodded their heads in unison, and said in unison, "I'm okay." ”

"Okay, you guys wait here for a while, it shouldn't take long."

Gloria gracefully got up, bowed slightly to the group, and walked outside.

However, a few steps after she walked out, she seemed to think of something, turned around and grabbed David's ear.

Amid the latter's inexplicable wails, the affectionate mother and son walked downstairs without saying a word.

Soon after the two left, Kitagawa Hiroya immediately stood up and said goodbye to Lucy and Sasha:

"I'm going down and getting some drinks, ladies and gentlemen, please wait here for a while."

With the departure of three people in a row, the conference room fell into a brief silence, and only two white-haired women sat facing each other in the huge space.

It's simply a godsend, such a rare time for two people to be alone, and the two of them didn't focus on the data panel skimming the information, but looked at each other quite meaningfully, and the two tufts of white hair were like two rounds of bright arc moon in the dark night, not to be outdone.

"It's just the two of us..."Sasha muttered to himself inexplicably, with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, and between his eyebrows and eyes, there was both cat-like agility and cat-like wildness.

The wild nature of cats is generally only manifested when protecting food.

Lucy's expression was calm, and she did not change because of Sasha's words, but simply hummed and asked:

"What's wrong with that?"

"I'd like to talk to you, after all, there aren't many occasions like this." Sasha pleaded softly.

"What do you want to talk about?" Lucy set her eyes on the nearby whiteboard, her eyes wandering away from the words and pictures on it, pretending not to care.

But at a glance, anyone with a discerning eye can also see that her mind is not on the whiteboard, but immersed in the conversation with the woman opposite.

"Him." Sasha said one word in an accentuated tone.

Lucy's eyes moved slightly, her eyelashes twitched slightly, but the expression on her face was still as calm as the lonely moon reflected on the surface of the lake.

She subconsciously reached into her pocket, as if she wanted to take out a cigarette, but the next second the action of pulling out the cigarette stiffened halfway, and she withdrew her hand stupidly, and said in a calm tone:

"What is there for him to talk about... Don't you be paid? Or do you have to do something that's hard to say? ”

Sasha shook his head calmly, pursed his lips, smiled slightly, and changed the subject for no reason:

"Actually, I envy you, Lucy."

"Envy me? Wait, aren't we talking about him, why did it suddenly hit me? Lucy was a little stunned.

It's like a samurai sharpening her spear, and she has already prepared a plan for how to respond to Sasha's possible next words, but the other party suddenly changed his words and pointed the finger at her at once, which made her a little uncomfortable.

Sasha didn't sell it either, his elbows rested on the table, holding his pretty face, staring at Lucy and slowly saying the reason:

"You went on that mission with him that night, and while I don't know what happened to you and him in the Arasaka Seaside area, your attitude towards him seems to have changed a lot since that day... I've rarely seen you arguing in front of him. ”

Lucy pulled her hair, frowned slightly, and said a little carelessly:

"After all, after that night, I also changed from a temporary worker to a regular worker, so I can't play tricks in front of him like before, he is in charge of our salary."

"So I'm very envious of you, I've been on a mission with him for so long, and this time it's the same, he still likes to go it alone..."Sasha sighed.

"But I've heard from others that you didn't work with Mann when you were on his side?" Lucy looked into her eyes

Sasha smiled lightly and said meaningfully: "At that time, it was different from now, I only thought he was a new junior, and seeing that he had a good personality, I thought about taking care of him and having a good relationship with him, so that I could have one more friend..."

Lucy raised her eyebrows, looked at Sasha with slightly narrowed eyes, and asked, "What about now?" Is it any different? ”

"I like him!"

Sasha didn't hesitate, her eyes widened a little, and she said in a firm tone, looking at Lucy without showing any weakness.

Lucy's expression froze, and her eyes froze.

After a few seconds, her eyes gradually relaxed, and she asked a little carelessly:

"No wonder, I've heard about the two of you, and he saved you,"

"If it's just because it saved my life, then I'm afraid I'll only be grateful, and I will have a good impression instead of liking..."Sasha bowed his head and whispered.

"But that night was really an opportunity for me to pay more attention to him, so that I could find more sparkle in him... How to say it, people are like this, if it is pleasing to the eye, no matter how you look at it, you will feel that the other party is sincere, and if it is not pleasing to the eye, you will feel that the other party is hypocritical. ”

"He's just like that." Lucy said casually, nonchalantly.

Sasha covered her mouth and chuckled, and asked a little funny:

"Do you really think so?"

Lucy was slightly stunned, subconsciously thinking back to what he had done and the way he did things on weekdays.

Free and easy, not limited to small money, must do one thing, will never affect others if you can, can always see other people's thoughts and then help, but will not let others bear too much psychological burden...

Halfway through the thought, as if sensing something was wrong, Lucy hurriedly threw these thoughts out of her mind, and said with an unchanged face:

"That's it."

"If you really think so, then I'm relieved... I won't hide it from you, and after this operation, I want to confess to him. A gentle smile flashed across Sasha's face.

She was only silent.

Lucy lowered her head and looked at the floor, her eyes wandering as if she was thinking of something, and did not answer Sasha's words.

Seeing that she was silent for a long time, the corners of Sasha's mouth lifted slightly, and then said:

"Actually, I didn't think I would be entangled for so long, after all, hesitation is the most important thing in our business... But in the face of him, I will hesitate, because until now, we don't know anything about his identity except that he is rich..."

"His identity is very mysterious, and he is so generous, his identity background will never be simple, because of this, the probability that a cyber hacker like me can be favored by him..."

"We are not from the same world as him after all."

"Then why do you want to confess this to him now?" Lucy asked, frowning.

"Because I have a hunch that if I don't say it, I may not have the opportunity to say it again in the future..."Sasha's expression was slightly dark.

......

On the balcony on the second floor.

Lin Mo sneezed coldly, and Jack, who was standing next to him, was shocked.

"Damn, Lin Mo, you shouldn't have caught a cold because you stood here blowing the wind." The big man of Heywood said matter-of-factly.

Lin Mo glanced at him and said helplessly:

"I'm not that fragile yet."

With his current physical attributes, if he can be blown cold by this little cold wind, then it will be a shame on the face of mankind.

"I think there's dust in my nose, it's a little itchy." Lin Mo rubbed his nose and waved his hand: "A little thing, by the way, didn't I say that I had something to talk to you about in advance?" ”

】

"Well, I listen, what's the matter?" Jack also subconsciously rubbed his nose, feeling as if he was itching too.

Lin Mo took a deep breath and said:

"After this operation, I will choose to leave for a while."

"Leave? What do you mean by that? Jack raised an eyebrow, stunned.

"I'll only tell a few people about this, don't tell anyone else, as for the reason, can't you guess, now Mr. Ink Shadow has a bounty on his head, even if I can kill the person who posted the bounty, the money will still hang." Lin Mo said suddenly.

Jack pondered for a moment and sighed, "I see." ”

This is indeed the case.

Even if the big man who posted the bounty dies, the bounty will not change, and it will still hang over his head.

Even if the bounty is doubled, because once that big man dies, no matter who the other party is, his family, relatives, and even family members will not easily bypass Lin Mo.

They are so used to being so high that they don't even see a sharp blade put to their necks.

"And what about the others, what's the point of hiding from them?"

"I have my own plans." Lin Mo replied calmly.
