Chapter 54: The Way Back (1)
In the living room of the Tamil family estate, Samit sat in silence.
Next to him sat Shirley and his wife, Nixi, and the faithful old butler Natathan stood respectfully behind him.
Sitting opposite was the "Seven Shadows Killing" team, while Sikal took the initiative to avoid it because of the mission, and left with Xiao Senka, who should now be on the way to the "headquarters".
"Mr. Ai Yan, I apologize deeply for this incident, and I didn't know that it was my daughter Ina who stole the family property, and it was difficult to prevent thieves, I still understand this truth. Summit lifted her forehead, which was covered with worried foreheads, and apologized to Ai Yan.
"Mr. Summit doesn't have to take all the blame on himself, after all, it's not entirely your fault. Ai Yan took a sip of neem leaf tea, but still didn't feel anything special, it was all because of his negative understanding of the tea ceremony, "But this mission, we can't determine whether it has been completed or not." ”
"Don't worry. Summit knew what Ai Yan was trying to say, and they all knew it, "The agreement with your organization is still valid, and we will pay enough consultant fees as required by the agreement, and we will also show that you have completed your task, and it has been done beautifully!"
"Consultant gold" is a saying on the road, and it is also a good picture, in fact, it is essentially a mercenary money, and the secret evil bureau is hired to solve the problem, but the dark evil bureau has a lot of freedom for the acceptance of the task, which is not a secret among the high-level people.
Seeing that Summit agreed, the big stone on Ai Yan's chest could be regarded as being put down - the task value was saved!
"Hehe!" Ai Yan gave Summit a smile that seemed to be more sincere and sincere, "Mr. Summit is so polite, Mr. Summit can give the most sincere friendship to a small team like us, we are flattered! Since they are friends, then they should help each other in the future, if there are any difficulties that your family can't solve in the routine, but please let me know, sir, we will definitely help!"
"Good!" Samit clapped his hands, "Your Excellency Ai Yan is also a man of temperament! If there is something that your team needs to help solve in the future, you are welcome. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and a profiteer's aura filled the entire living room, as if they were not in the final process of handing over a task, but talking about a new business!
Needless to say, Ai Yan's current IQ is much higher than before, and his thinking about things is becoming more and more comprehensive and meticulous - I really thank the master and his old man! This kind of physical improvement is really not something that ordinary abilities can do. And as for our dear Samit patriarch, not to mention, to be able to sit in this position, it is not a fox but also a human spirit.
Ai Yan handed over the "bee eye", and Summit personally pressed his fingerprint, and then passed his own iris scan, and confirmed that Ai Yan and the others had successfully completed their mission this time. This is the confirmation of the task carried out by the "queen bee" machine, and it can generally be passed as long as the sender of the task is personally confirmed (signature is also acceptable).
put away the "bee eyes", Ai Yan and Summit shook hands "warmly", and in that scene, the blind could see the hypocrisy of both sides.

At sunset, the originally turquoise rice fields shimmered gold, as if the rice had matured in advance. The fiery red clouds in the sky, leisurely walking in the sky, overlooking the busy life on the earth.
Ai Yan walked, her fingers brushed over the still green ears of rice, and the velvety touch seemed to be scratched over the quilt, which made people feel warm unconsciously, and their mood was relaxed.
Stepping on the soft dirt ground, the occasional small grass dots the road, giving a little life to what should be a sad sunset.
The sparrows mischievously weave through the rice fields, attracting the singing of the gnats. The sound of frogs chirping came from the pond used for irrigation and water extraction, and there were small patches of aquatic plants floating on the pond, and several frogs were hiding their figures in the leaves of aquatic plants, which at first glance looked as if aquatic plants were chirping. When Ai Yan got closer, there was a brief silence in the pond, but then the sound of frogs praising each other was heard.
Ai Yan sat on a large bluestone by the pond, which seemed to be often used as a natural bench, and it was very smooth, because it had been exposed to the warm sun for a day, and there was a faint temperature on it.
The pond is connected to the largest artificial lake in the estate, and you can also see faintly growing lotus leaves, supporting their soft waists, and their green, round heads swaying from side to side with the wind.
Ai Yan knew that this was his last night at the Tamil Manor, or rather, in India. It only took a few days to complete the task here, and it was absolutely ahead of schedule! The time was still early, and there was plenty of money, and they were not in a hurry to go to the headquarters of the Bureau, so they simply stayed at the Tamil Manor for a few days to eat and drink for nothing. Originally, I wanted to live this heavenly life here for another two months before going back, but the "Queen Bee" sent a message that all the idle members of the Dark Evil Bureau in the world gathered at the film market as soon as possible!
On the one hand, their names were on the recall list, and the "Queen Bee" had prepared a perfect return route for them, so he could only leave this manor that made him envious and jealous; on the other hand, although the film market was the headquarters of the Dark Evil Bureau, what was the need to transfer all the "unemployed" members around the world? If nothing big happened to him, he wouldn't believe it if he killed him!
But what could it be? Ai Yan couldn't figure it out, so she asked the "queen bee", but she didn't say anything, only told Ai Yan - this is an order!
"Alas......" shook his head in annoyance, to be honest, he didn't like turbulent days, this kind of life of huddle in a heavenly corner and no one cared about, he thought it was good. But another voice in his head was telling him: Don't you want to find your parents? Don't you want to know the truth of all this? Don't you want to ......
So, he made up his mind to go back, because only there could he know more about what he wanted to know.
On this last night, he wanted to take a good look at the scenery in the manor that he hadn't paid attention to before, so he left Mu Tian and the others and came here alone.
Wandering aimlessly, for some reason, I came to the other side of the Tamil estate - where most of the servants were located.
I picked a lotus flower - this season, the lotus blooms at the right time of luxury. Ai Yan played with lotus flowers, which reminded him of Tao Yuanming's "Love Lotus Said", "Yu Du Ai Lotus is out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons, straight through the outside, no vines and no branches, fragrant and clear, pavilions and pure plants, can be viewed from a distance and can not be blasphemed." This is one of the sentences praising the lotus, Ai Yan put the lotus petals on her nose, smelled the fragrance of the lotus, and somewhat understood why Tao Yuanming said this.
Ai Yan walked forward along the pond and saw patches of lotus flowers, which were even more delicate and lovely under the cover of lotus leaves. A few golden fish frolic in the waters, and this is their paradise, and they have no shortage of fun as long as they are here.
The setting sun illuminates the lotus flowers transparently, glowing red, like a blood lotus growing upright.
He walked, walked through the cobblestone path, and saw the small pavilion in the middle of the lake - Ai Yan found that the whole manor has a lot of Chinese style, Ai Yan asked Natasen about this, he said that this is the hobby of the previous patriarch, he longed for Chinese pavilions and small and beautiful rockeries and lakes, so he built the entire unimportant position of the manor into a Chinese-style building, he is also very measured, and retains the style of an important part of the manor. Later, the patriarch Summit did not pay much attention to the style of the estate, and only focused on whether his company made enough money every day. That's why these buildings have survived to this day. Therefore, Ai Yan was not too surprised to see these Huxin Pavilions that should have been in the Jiangnan region of China, but was just a little curious.
He looked at the small pavilion, in the pavilion, a white veil danced in the wind, she was surrounded by lotus flowers, revealing a different kind of beauty, this beauty, as if it was like a lotus, and she was the most beautiful one of the lotus.
In the fluttering white veil, she turned around softly. Ai Yan saw her face, and she also found Ai Yan who had been waiting for a long time.

In the dense jungle, two figures slashed through the air like lightning, and the sound of "whooshing" breaking wind resounded in this small space.
The fallen leaves were picked up by the strong wind and flew in the air again. The branches creaked as they were trampled, and several forest birds fluttered their wings and flew into the air.
The figure flashed, and deep gashes were cut in the thick giant tree, and viscous liquid clung to it. Before the two extremely fast figures had run far, several more figures rushed towards them, and then the fallen leaves flew in the sky - these dead leaves, which had fallen for an unknown period of time, might not be disturbed by anyone in their lifetime, but would only rot alone, decomposed by bacteria and fungi, and become nourishment for the tree. But today, they were blessed one after another, and a stronger wind than before carried them into the sky.
"Stop, you can't escape!" one of the people chasing behind shouted threatening words.
The man in front of him turned his head once in the run, and seemed to give the speaker a blank look.
Only the brain-dead would listen to him. He thought, but then the man who was running with him next to him stopped. He looked at the "brain-dead" companion who stopped in his tracks, and subconsciously stopped, and then, his face became very strange, as if he had eaten bird poop while running.
The person who spoke immediately smiled, he didn't expect that he was just shouting a few words casually, and most of them were shouted to his companions, in order to show his dedication and loyalty, but he didn't expect it to work hell!
"You've been chasing us for so long, it's always okay to tell us who you are, right?" said the man who stopped first. He was full of white hair and a somewhat rickety, and he turned out to be an old man. But seeing his previous speed with his own eyes, no one will believe that this is just an ordinary old man anymore.
The man who "threatened success" walked out of the group, "It's okay to tell you, there are too many people who know about us anyway, and there are not many of you two." Listen, uncle, I'm Chensha! I'm one of the members of the Four Monarchs of Zeusha. And now in front of you, the person who chased you like a lost dog is this squad!"
The old man seemed to have a good temper, and he didn't pay attention to Chensha's disrespect, and said slowly: "What I asked is, which organization are you from. ”
"How's it going? Scared, aren't you?"
Who knew that the old man was not only not afraid, but also laughed, "That's a good feeling, what I'm looking for is you." ”
"What...... What?" Chen Sha didn't turn a corner, obviously they were chasing these two people, but now how did they become the lambs they sent to the door, and these two strange guys dressed in animal skins and dressed as prehistoric humans have become hunters who have been waiting for them for a long time?
Risha waved his hand, interrupting Chensha's intention to continue asking questions, and said with a little respect: "I don't know who the two are? ”
The old man smiled, but did not answer Risha, perhaps because he felt that Risha did not have enough qualifications.
"Wolf Clan Grand Elder Gesbudo, I want to see your director. ”
