Xu Cheng drove to the border exit. There was a big breakfast restaurant there.
He entered the restaurant and saw an old Asian man with a white beard drinking coffee in the corner. Xu Cheng had never seen Little Ghost before, but he knew that this was the only Asian man in his seventies or eighties. So, he walked over to the table behind the old man and sat down. The two were almost sitting with their backs facing each other.
Xu Cheng took a bite of the bread, and as he chewed, he said, "I find it hard to believe that you didn't beautify yourself after all these years. How many years have you been away from the Dragon Division?"
Little Ghost also had his back to him, and he lowered his head to eat the barbecued meat as he muttered, "15 years and 231 days."
Xu Cheng mocked, "You remember it quite clearly?"
Imp: "Of course. You'll never understand how long a spy's days are like years when you're away from home."
Xu Cheng: "That's why I said, why are you so persistent? Maybe a person can't endure it alone, so I suspect that you have already betrayed me in your heart. "
Little Ghost sneered, "I can understand that your misunderstanding of me comes from the conflict between me and your master, but I can swear to the heavens that maybe I'm not a good person, but for the country and the Dragon Division, I have a clear conscience!"
Xu Cheng: "If you have something to say, just say it. My woman is still in their hands."
"You should know in your heart that they are here for you, and your woman will only be a burden to you. I don't want you to go," Little Ghost said.
"You're spouting nonsense." Xu Cheng snorted. "I know that sooner or later, my woman will become a burden to me, so I try not to expose our relationship. But for a woman who is willing to roam the world with you, all she wants is a title. It's because I know that she was kidnapped because of me that I want to save her even more. "
Little Ghost: "You can't save her. You are no match for those people."
Xu Cheng: "You fought with me before, and didn't you also pay the price for underestimating me?"
Little Ghost laughed. "You really think I underestimated you? Do you think I don't know where the Dragon Division's base is? Then why didn't I just go in that night and let the seven big demons do it? Why did I only fight you? If I wanted to kill you, would I tell you so much about the secrets of the Mystic Fist? "
Xu Cheng was confused. "What do you mean?"
"Before Senior Brother died, he called me and asked me to give you some pointers or to test your strength. On one hand, he wanted you to be able to convince the Dragon Group's senior and junior brothers to unite. Secondly, it would allow me to relax and continue to follow up on the case here. Actually, I had always been worried about the situation in the country. I am filled with guilt towards your master, but from the standpoint of the country, I can only do that. He was addicted to that woman's gentleness and gradually neglected the strengthening of the four clans. I couldn't stand it anymore and was angry at him for not fighting for it. I tried to persuade him countless times, but to no avail. I had no choice but to use this method. However, I didn't molest that woman. It was just a coincidence that Senior Martial Brother saw it. After he gave that woman the cold shoulder, I didn't expect that woman to commit suicide. But that's good too. It cut off Senior Martial Brother's focus on the Dragon Division. That way, I could use this opportunity to resolve my conflict with him and leave the country to join the United States. If I didn't have absolute proof of my strength and the willingness to train the American special forces, I wouldn't have entered the 5th District and investigated the higher-ups. "
Then, Little Gui felt like he went off topic, so he continued, "Right now, you are just like your master. You are the future of the Dragon Division, so I won't let you risk your life for a woman, even if that woman dies!"
Xu Cheng coldly said, "You want to make the same mistake twice? You don't even know how lonely Master was when he died. He kept telling me a lot of things, and if I don't, I won't have the chance to tell him again. "
Little Gui bitterly smiled. "At least he still has his disciples around him, but what about me? Every time I go to the coastline and look at the country, I can't even make a phone call because I'm being monitored. For almost 16 years, you said that normal people can't endure it, and I'm also a normal person! "
Xu Cheng: "There must be something hateful about the pitiful people."
"I know." Little Gui bitterly smiled and said, "I don't expect anyone to understand me. A lone hero is always lonely."
Xu Cheng: "But I don't want to be a lone hero. Ever since I got kicked out of the military, I felt like it's time to pay back what I owe my woman. She's been living in fear with me all these years, and I just want to give her a sense of security. Maybe it's best if she can leave the Dragon Division and not get targeted."
"Who said you were kicked out?" Little Gui said, "Did the military court ever decide to kick you out of your position as the Dragon King?"
Xu Cheng was a bit stunned.
Little Gui: "You were only kicked out of the military and special forces, but the Dragon Division told you from the beginning that they don't belong to any department. So, even if you are kicked out of all your positions, it doesn't include your position as the Dragon King!"
Xu Cheng stopped chewing, and his hesitant eyes glazed over for a second. Then, he continued chewing and said a bit angrily, "Even if I'm still the Dragon King, it's still the same as before. I will still go where I need to go."
Little Gui: "Don't you want to know what I've been investigating for the past 16 years? Maybe it's related to the people who kidnapped your woman. I can't say I know them very well, but I have some intel on them. That's why I stopped you from going this time. Even if your woman dies, I won't let you go. In my eyes, if there's anyone who can take down this organization, it's probably you! But right now, if you go there, you'll die without a burial. "
Xu Cheng chewed on his bread, and his eyes were a bit red as he said, "In this life, I've let down two women. One is my wife, and the other is my mother. The latter already died because of me, and my biggest regret in this life is not being able to be filial to her. So, for the one left, I will treat her well unconditionally."
Little Gui: "I have a piece of intel in my hands that needs someone to bring back to the country. No member of the Dragon Division can bring it back. Once exposed, they will be assassinated on the way back. Only you have the strength to bring it back. I feel like I'm being watched. Ever since I took the Devil Squad to Huaxia and killed three members, my actions have been too suspicious. "
Xu Cheng: "I don't have time, sorry."
Then, Xu Cheng wiped his mouth and was about to get up and leave.
But Little Gui said, "Don't you want to know why Westerners know internal martial arts? You said you would face the Freemasons sooner or later, so this intel I have is about them. Maybe this intel can help you understand more about this organization. "
Xu Cheng was about to stand up, but after hesitating for a second, he slowly sat back down.
