On Planet S3 in the Northwest Star Region, white snow floated in the cold air. The self-heating defrosting line in the mezzanine of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass curtain wall made a low buzzing sound. Water flowed down from the frost surface, looking like an abstract line painting.
Lin Banshan faced the window with his hands behind his back. His thin and straight shoulders showed a sense of steepness. The gray coat that rarely changed was like the gray and snowy sky outside the window.
"I heard that the speech for the best movie in yesterday's award ceremony was written by Bob. I have always admired this Mr. Chief Editor. The speech was written very well, very much like you. "
He looked out of the window or at the traces of water that slowly slid down the glass. He didn't look back. His voice echoed in the room, and then passed to another planet through the phone on the dark desk.
"The speech was written very much like your character. There are many crazy people like you in this world. Those incompetent lunatics usually only dare to attack the weak, such as children or women, because this method of venting anger to find mental peace can be achieved safely and easily. "
"But few people dare to slap the Lin family in the face like you did. The people were shocked and speechless, and the humiliation was unbearable. "
"It takes real courage and madness to trample on the family's glory that the elders value the most. You know, even I am sometimes afraid and deeply puzzled. Why can the seven families survive for such a long time in the Federation without self-destructing because of too much energy. "
Lin Banshan's calm and steady eyes showed a hint of a smile. He said, "The elders haven't met a crazy person like you for many years. They are not used to dealing with people like you, so I will talk to you about the follow-up measures."
Speaking of this, the man who once shocked the seven families paused slightly and said, "Although I have already broken out of the door, I believe I am qualified to be this representative."
The phone on the huge black wooden desk was silent for a moment, then Xu Le's sincere and serious voice sounded.
"I have heard a lot of stories about you, from the black car race near the special zone to Bermuda, many stories. The last time we met on the train, you left a deep impression on me. Sometimes I even feel like I worship you, because you live a free and easy life, but I can't seem to be so free and easy. "
"I have to remind you that now is not the time to talk about admiration." Lin Banshan replied with a smile, "Although the patience of the elderly is better than ours, there is still a limit, especially when the youngest child he dotes on the most could die at any time.
He lowered his head and glanced at the Da Fei watch on his left wrist. "I'm not in Bermuda right now. I'm in S3, but it's impossible for me to appear at the scene. I think, in order to prevent the old people from exploding in anger and prevent a large-scale civil war in the Federation, we should reach an agreement as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Xu Le's crisp voice immediately sounded from the other end of the phone. "I'll let him go."
Hearing this answer, Lin Banshan's brows finally furrowed slightly. He turned around and looked at the phone on the black desk. He didn't expect the other party to make such a decision so quickly and decisively.
Sitting on a sofa in the corner of the room were Zhang Xiaohua and a pale-faced middle-aged man in black. When they heard Xu Le's answer, they couldn't help but raise their eyebrows and reveal a surprised expression.
"The matter of the assassination in the Sunset Province ends here." Xu Le said on the phone, "I'll let Lin Douhai go because your father has apologized, and I believe in you."
"But this belief has nothing to do with your identity as a legend. Regarding the Macklin case, whether it was intentional or not, you helped me after all. His identity was revealed by you in Bermuda. "
"Another thing is, last time in the carriage, you canceled the engagement between Lin Douhai and Miss Nan Xiang. After thinking about it, I really admire you because this has nothing to do with your interests or even your style of doing things. It's just about the happiness of an ordinary girl."
"You're a good person."
…
…
Hearing Xu Le's serious evaluation on the other end of the phone, Lin Banshan was silent for a long time.
The middle-aged man in black and Zhang Xiaohua in the room opened their mouths at the same time. Their expressions were a little strange, as if they wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to laugh in front of him.
Under the premise of The Glory Of The Charter shrouding the wilderness, Lin Banshan could still wave his sleeves lightly, break through the door, and coldly face his family. With just his hands, he could invade and move freely between day and night, conquering a large and unique landscape.
Although he was used to wearing an ordinary gray coat and personally taking care of Linyuan, where even the old man of Feicheng City would choose to rest temporarily when he went to the capital, countless tragic past events, countless corpses that fell at his feet, and the underground industry kingdom that spanned across the Federation and the capital ring had already proven what kind of person he was.
The lady in the back mountain of Mochou once said that he could be a hero in troubled times. In fact, a person like him would inevitably become a hero even in peaceful times.
For Lin Banshan, the Federation officials and dignitaries, the pirates of Bermuda, and the underground world feared him, respected him, and hated him, but there were even more people who couldn't wait to eat his flesh, but very few people would cast this kind of emotion.
Today was the first time he heard someone use the identity of a "good person" to describe him. Lin Banshan's mood was a little inexplicable. He felt that the little guy on the other end of the phone was really a very interesting person.
"The Federation government and the Ministry of Defense won't make a documentary for people like me, so I'm not used to hearing this kind of praise. I'm more used to solving problems. "
"Lin Douhai is my younger brother. There is a saying in the Federation that brothers are born with half of their lives. He wants to kill you, so it's natural that you want to kill him. Since you didn't kill him, I'll take over this half of his life. From today onwards, I owe you half of my life. "
"Although I really want to say that you don't have to worry about the anger of the elders, I can't say for sure whether this kind of decadent family is keeping their promises for the sake of dignity or not. After all, I left because I thought these things were too boring."
He continued calmly, "But I can guarantee that Lin Douhai will be brought back to S3, and I will personally find someone to look after him."
"Group 7 under you contributed and took risks in the incident in Sunset State. One hundred million in cash is their compensation. Of course, this money is paid by the elders in the family, I'm just saying. "
…
…
On the beach in another manor, Xu Le held the phone and didn't quite react. He originally thought that there would be countless soldiers and police surrounding the manor, or even later, the Lin family would show him the true power of the seven great families. However, he didn't expect that the content of the phone call seemed to develop toward a ridiculous plot.
In the dense green forest, a thick piece of wood covered with moss suddenly moved. Xiong Linquan, who was in perfect disguise, heard the words from the communication system and was so shocked that his body trembled slightly. He lowered his voice and said with a trembling voice, "One hundred million … That's much more generous than Mr. Nutshell. Old Bai, damn it, how many times did we have to do to earn that much money?"
Fifty meters away from the manor's computer control room, in a dark underground sewer, three members of Team 7 were carefully listening to the conversation in their ears. Gu Xifeng, who was in charge of hacking and controlling the security system, froze on the keyboard. She excitedly said into the mini microphone, "F * ck, following the boss to do private work, this situation is really different."
Hidden in an inconspicuous gray building at the edge of the forest, all the bodyguards in the manor had already been disarmed and gathered. Bai Yulan, who was in charge of the operation, was in the office next door. He sat on a chair and listened to the voice in the headset. He couldn't help but smile.
His nimble fingers gently flicked a delicate knife. A sharp military knife was hidden in the woven cloth scabbard at the bottom of his left hand. The H12 long-case pistol lay quietly on his thigh.
That expert from the Lin family, Uncle Kong, sat silently on the chair opposite him. Seven groups of ice and fire quietly occupied the manor. White magnolia directly entered this place. When the two met, they sat silently facing each other. From the beginning to the end, they did not make a move. Uncle Kong's slightly gloomy cheeks carried a trace of regret of aging.

After the phone call ended, Lin Banshan said to the pale-faced middle-aged man in black, "Last time you said that Li Xiaotong sent a young man named Li Wei to Bermuda, and in the end, it was found that he was Xu Le's friend?"
"It's been confirmed, but it's strange that we couldn't find out why Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le knew this person. What's even stranger is that I once asked for help in your name from the Bureau of Proclamation, only to find that many of the files had been classified as top secret. "
Hearing this, Lin Banshan's eyes narrowed slightly. After a long silence, he said, "That's all. Don't investigate anymore. Some things are not something we can touch."
"Understood," the middle-aged man in black replied simply.
"Tell Bermuda to keep an eye on the man named Li Wei. Don't let him lose half an eyebrow." Lin Banshan said with slight ridicule, "It doesn't feel good to owe Xu Le half a life. Looking at this young man's ability, it seems that it will be difficult for us to save his life. Protecting his friend is also considered as paying back some interest."
"If the Lin family really wants to retaliate, Xu Le and his team members will definitely not be able to stop them. Will he ask for help from Philadelphia, or will he say that he hopes that Mr. President will speak up? To be honest, I'm really curious about what kind of storm your family will stir up in the Federation once they launch an all-out attack. "
Zhang Xiaohua stood behind him and asked with a smile. The tattoo was deformed as it broke free from his collar, and it was exceptionally bright.
"If Father believes what I said on the phone just now, then there won't be any storm after this, only peace."
Lin Banshan said with a complicated expression, "You and I both know how ruthless the two experts who went to the West Woods from Bermuda are. But the most frightening thing is not the result of them not killing Xu Le, but the absolute control Xu Le showed in this assassination. "
"The plan of the three idiots, if not for the tacit consent and help of the old man, how could it be woven so meticulously?"
"The power of the family is spread in every corner of the Federation's structure. Even the tiger of the Zhong family would find it difficult to organize the plan, but Xu Le, this guy, took a dozen people and solved it so easily, and responded so accurately and concisely."
"I always have a feeling that from the beginning, Xu Le knew all the plans." Lin Banshan frowned and said, "I don't understand how he did it."
In the earlier phone call, he sternly warned his loathsome father, "Such a person is not easy to kill. According to his character, if you can't kill him, you may be killed by him, and the probability of this is very high. "
If the seven families were really omnipotent, why didn't they just blow up the president's official residence or buy the lake in Philadelphia? If they couldn't do it, then they shouldn't provoke Xu Le.
Lin Banshan thought so.
