Xu Le was sitting on a flat bed that was half the height of a person. At this moment, when he raised his head, his previously silent and slightly shaken body suddenly straightened up. He opened his eyes. Although he was not sleepy, he did not have much energy, so he directly came to a conclusion. However, his normal tone of voice made the people around him unable to raise too many doubts.
He tapped the ash on the black stone ashtray beside him. He used two fingers to hold the slightly hot cigarette and took a deep puff.
Li Xiaotong naturally smoked the best quality tobacco to entertain him. However, when he was thinking, he still habitually smoked a blue box of Brand 37 cigarettes. It was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, and for him, it was not difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. After all, as an orphan who did not have much experience with extravagance during his childhood, Xu Le was still more used to the slightly dry and coarse taste of Brand 37 cigarettes. This might have something to do with his love for the past to a certain extent.
Brand 37 cigarettes were neither expensive nor cheap. The price was moderate. If an engineer held a cigarette in his hand and stared at the design blueprint on the workbench, people would feel that it was very natural and very compatible. However, if the youngest lieutenant colonel in the Federation held a cigarette and acted like he was thinking, people would easily feel that this person was too pretentious. Not to mention the allowance from the Ministry of Defense, the benefits of the military would make any lieutenant colonel feel that smoking this kind of cigarette was very degrading.
However, Xu Le just sipped and smoked like this, just like how he smoked and chatted with Shi Qinghai behind the iron gate of Ewha University three years ago. It was very natural, just like how he gave his own judgment without any reason at this moment. He sat cross-legged on the bed like a Bermuda specialty charlatan, but it was hard for people to feel suspicious or shocked.
"He's in the Sixth Courtyard. He's preparing to sneak out with the people inside."
Xu Le narrowed his eyes and whispered in the smoke-filled room, which made the atmosphere around him even weirder. Only he knew where his confidence came from. The Federation government probably would not apply to the Bureau of Proclamation any faster than he did now. During the moment when he closed his eyes and meditated, he had already confirmed the identity of the gunman through the old guy in the Bureau of Proclamation and started to track that person's location in real time.
At this moment, he was not talking about the old man in Philadelphia, but Xu Le. With the full cooperation of the Federal Central Computer, no matter how powerful the person was, he would not be able to escape from his eyes.
"Lin Douhai and the people from Green Dragon Mountain are in that courtyard." Li Xiaotong's face was a little gloomy as he reminded him.
Xu Le stubbed out the cigarette in the cold stone ashtray, nodded, got up, and walked out of the courtyard. Bai Yulan lowered her head and followed closely behind him, followed by the gloomy men in the Seventh Courtyard.
The young lady of the Zhong Family, who had no choice but to stop the tour, was obviously more mature than the average young girl. She did not yell or make a scene, but carefully observed the strange expressions of Xu Le and the adults. She quietly held the slightly old doll in her arms and followed behind the crowd.
Xu Le was worried that leaving her in the First Courtyard would give some people an opportunity to take advantage of her, so he simply took her with him and gave the men in the Seventh Courtyard a death order. He was not worried about the little girl's safety. Instead, when he walked in the gloomy forest in the afternoon, he thought of the Prime Minister Nan's family, who was also on vacation in the Wood Valley Manor, and the beautiful and shy girl.
…
…
"You mean to say that the gunman is among the people behind me?"
Lin Douhai, who was wearing a light brown hemp suit, frowned deeply. He wanted to show a trace of depth that didn't match his shrewdness. He looked at Xu Le, who was in front of him, and said mockingly, "What a stupid judgment. Wood Valley is the property of the Lin Family. I admit that I hate you, and Young Master Nan must not have a good impression of you either. But I will not do such a thing in this courtyard. "
Lin Douhai slightly raised his chin and said disdainfully, "We just had a conflict at noon. Do you think I will be stupid enough to immediately send someone to kill you? It is obvious that someone wants to take this opportunity to stir up trouble. As an engineer, can you please use your brain more? Other than mechanical things, you should also learn a little bit of the ways of the world. "
Lin Douhai's explanation was very reasonable. Although the children of the Seven Great Families were arrogant and stupid, the education they received since childhood prevented them from doing such stupid things that would only bring endless trouble to their families.
Xu Le lowered his head and listened quietly. He did not say anything to refute. He did not even look at the bodyguards behind Lin Douhai and Nan Mingxiu, because he was sure that the powerful gunman was there, among the security team of the Lin Family.
Also for safety, he did not look at the gunman. He glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, and his heart was filled with infinite shock. This person's ribs were broken by him, and he was stabbed twice by Bai Yulan. This person could still hold on until now. There was not a trace of blood on his body, and he could walk as usual. He even tried to sneak out of the manor through the Lin Family … This kind of determination and means was either extremely arrogant or extremely crazy.
Because he did not know if the gunman still had a gun in his hand, Xu Le lowered his eyes and did not want to take the risk. But he also did not want to let such a dangerous person, who was determined to assassinate Little Watermelon, escape from under his nose.
"Your people don't represent what you think." Li Xiaotong, who was cold all over, suddenly interrupted, "Douhai, your analysis is very reasonable, but maybe some people are just like us, so they deliberately want to take advantage of this loophole."
Regarding the fixed mindset, in the corner of the manor where the situation was very tense, there was no need to have too deep a discussion. But the sudden interruption of the seventh young master of the Li Family was more worthy of everyone's consideration. Among the seven families of the Federation, the Li and Lin families had always been on good terms. At this time, Li Xiaotong did not hesitate to stand on Xu Le's side. To put it bluntly, this outstanding person who had always been seeking the inheritance of the Li Family was also taking a big gamble. It was just to see how much he would get in the end.
After the seventh young master of the Li Family spoke, Lin Douhai was slightly stunned. His face became extremely ugly, and he looked at him with a cold gaze. Then he immediately looked at Xu Le and said with a cold smile, "I have so many people on my side. Do you want to check them one by one? According to what you said, he was stabbed in the thigh by your people. Do you want all of us to take off our pants for you to see? "
"Fuck! Do you want me to take off my pants for you to see? "Lin Douhai angrily cursed.
"I didn't say I wanted to take off my pants." Xu Le lowered his head and looked at the tips of his military boots that were constantly stepping on the bumpy ground. He said, "But you have to give me time to check."
Bai Yulan was behind him, blocking in front of Zhong Yan. The black hair on his forehead covered most of his cold eyes. He carefully checked the bodyguards for a long time, but still couldn't find who that person was. He didn't know where Xu Le's confidence came from.
Because he already had a plan in mind, Xu Le didn't say the fact that the gunman's palm was injured. Out of the corner of his eyes, he looked at the security personnel wearing grey overalls behind Lin Douhai. One of his hands pressed on the sound receiver in his ear …
"Move out of the way. Master Nan and I don't have time to play this game with you." Lin Douhai lightly waved his finger. The security personnel of the Lin family and the Special Guards of Green Dragon Mountain prepared to open the way.
Xu Le raised his head and looked at the armed personnel in front of him. His eyebrows gradually rose like flying knives. He said seriously, "I know you're inside. If I forcefully take care of you now, there are too many people here. There may be accidental injuries … If you just want to kill me, I may let you go with the others. Then I'll follow your shadow and kill you."
In the quiet woods of the Wood Valley Manor, the people on the road heard this and suddenly felt a chill. Those who knew of Xu Le's violent deeds, such as Lin Douhai and Nan Mingxiu, felt a layer of ice form on their hearts. But the rest of the people heard the certainty and persistence in these words.
"Unless you kill me first. In the current Federation, it's too easy for me to kill someone." Xu Le looked at the people on the road and said, "But I can't let you go today. Because the person you want to kill is a little girl, and a little friend that I cherish very much … You're also an expert. You're clearly someone from the military. You actually came up with such a crazy plan."
"I, can't let you go."
… …
… …
"Xu Le, you blocked my way. You said that my people want to kill you, or kill someone … I don't care. You're slapping my face. In a situation where I promised, you're still slapping my face."
Lin Douhai stared at the little girl behind Xu Le, whose blue school uniform was faintly visible. He said gloomily, "Whose little girl is this? She's fine. Is she more important than the face of my Lin family and Green Dragon Mountain combined? "
Speaking to this point, it was impossible for either side to back down. The security personnel of that side began to prepare to forcefully open up a path. The Federation strictly controlled firearms. Even the Lin family's security personnel did not dare to brazenly carry guns. On Xu Le's side, only Xiong Linquan carried a gun. Thus, facing the Green Dragon Mountain's special guards that gradually raised their gun muzzles, even though the men of Group 7 did not back down, their pupils gradually constricted. They discovered that this matter was indeed very thorny.
Whoever had more guns had the loudest voice. In the universe, in the political arena of the Federation, as well as in the countless small disturbances, this rule had always been coldly enforced.
"Lin Douhai, I promise you that this little girl's safety is definitely more important than the face of your family and Green Dragon Mountain's group of bumpkins added together."
The one who said these words was not Xu Le, even though he should be the only one here who knew Zhong Huoyan's true identity.
The one who said these words was a fatty. A fatty who walked out from the forest. He was all smiles like a comic actor. His two slits of eyes sparkled with Lin Hu's fierce light.
Fatty Tian.
The West Woods military's secret-level expert Fatty Tian slowly walked out from the forest. It was as if he had never left the Zhong family's little princess for even a moment. Following his appearance, 20 or so ghost-like special guards of the West Woods also spread out from the forest, behind the rocks, and under the flowers. They raised their black and incomparably cold Cayenne gun barrels and surrounded the Lin family's security personnel and the Green Dragon Mountain's special guards.
