No matter how one looked at it..,
Sun Lanlan was indeed an outstanding young woman.
But..,
Liu Xiaojiang wasn't in the mood to think about such things at the moment. Even though Sun Lanlan had expressed a clear favorable impression of him, he only had a trace of appreciation for her.
As the eldest daughter of the Sun Group and the father of the client for this entrusted mission, Sun Lanlan could still lower her posture and talk to him face-to-face. No one would hate such an approachable eldest daughter.
"Miss Lanlan, since there are casualties here, have you figured out the abilities of the other party's mutants?"
Liu Xiaojiang ignored the text sent by Er Zhuang on the phone. He reached out to pick up the teacup on the table and sniffed it. Then, he personally put the teacup back.
Seeing this..,
Sun Lanlan didn't answer Liu Xiaojiang's question. Instead, she looked at Liu Xiaojiang carefully. "Sir, don't you like green tea?"
"I don't like tea."
Liu Xiaojiang shook his head. Although he could try the food of normal people and feel the taste of all the food, he could not obtain any degree of satisfaction from it.
Therefore..,
Compared to drinking tea and enjoying a special taste experience, he actually preferred those sweet industrial drinks. Anyway, they were all meaningless simple taste experiences..
Sugar was the best way to make people happy.
Sun Lanlan saw the disdain on Liu Xiaojiang's face and couldn't help but be slightly surprised. She hurriedly said, "Is that so? What do you want to drink, Sir? Coffee? Soda? Or... "
"No need."
Liu Xiaojiang stopped Sun Lanlan's enthusiasm and said, "Compared to this, Miss Lanlan, I actually hope that we can end this mission quickly. After all... Yes.
Everyone is quite busy. "
"Alright." Sun Lanlan couldn't hide the disappointment on her face, but she quickly pulled herself together and said with a smile, "Sir is really different from ordinary people."
Hearing that..,
Liu Xiaojiang looked at Sun Lanlan in surprise, but considering that explaining might make things more complicated, he simply didn't say much. Instead, he asked again,
"Miss Lan Lan, his ability …"
Sun Lan Lan immediately shook her head. "Sir, you may not know this, but the attack happened at the beginning of the incident. Our family are all ordinary humans. Although we know about the existence of Mutants, we don't really understand them.
Plus, when the enemy attacked us.
He was still wearing a mask.
Therefore,
We don't even know who the other party is. "
"But …"
Speaking of which,
Sun Lan Lan seemed to have recalled something terrifying as she said with a palpitating heart, "That man seemed to be able to snap someone's neck in the air. The bodyguards didn't even touch him at that time, but when he made his intentions clear and wanted to take out their guns to control him, the bodyguards were killed.
My head was suddenly turned 180 degrees … "
Hearing this,
Liu Xiaojiang frowned and looked at Sun Lan Lan thoughtfully. "It sounds like Miss Lan Lan was also attacked?"
"But, the other party's strength is not bad, and you're just an ordinary person …"
"How did you escape?"
Sun Lan Lan's eyes dimmed as she replied, "My life was exchanged with the lives of the bodyguards. After seeing the other party's methods, one of the bodyguards immediately took me and escaped. The others stayed there to stall for time.
In the end,
I survived unscathed. "
[… That guy actually killed so many ordinary people for no reason, Brother Xiao Jiang! Encountering such a situation! There's no need to show mercy! The target is dead or alive! (angry)]
"They're all good people."
Liu Xiaojiang glanced at the words on the phone screen. He had already understood the company's rules and regulations. Now that he had encountered this kind of guy who killed so many ordinary people, there was no need for Er Zhuang to say anything more.
Because …
Whether it was the company's methods and attitude towards such Mutants, or just his personal preferences …
This kind of person had been completely sentenced to death.
The biggest difference between humans and animals was that humans could rely on self-control to suppress the desires in their bodies that could never be satisfied.
And this kind of person …
Liu Xiaojiang even felt that even a special existence like himself was far more like a real human than such scum.
"Yes, the bodyguards are all good people. Like Sir, they are my benefactors. I will never forget their kindness."
Sun Lan Lan recalled the dangerous situation she had been in, and the tragic deaths of her bodyguards. The confident look on her face disappeared without a trace, and it was replaced by a deep sense of self-blame.
"Did this matter affect other ordinary people?" Liu Xiaojiang asked again according to the company's procedures.
However …
Sun Lan Lan only thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be. The attack usually happens at night, and it's in places that aren't equipped with cameras. So, during this period of time, our real estate development projects have been suspended."
"Because, at that time, I was on my way back from inspecting the project and was attacked by the other party."
"As for the families of the bodyguards who died, we also said that they were attacked by foreign terrorists and gave each family an absolutely reasonable compensation."
Liu Xiaojiang nodded. "Alright, then. Next, I will personally guarantee Miss Lan Lan's safety. Please also ask the Ten Brothers' people to temporarily give up the protection here. The company's suspended real estate development projects can also be restarted.
After all …
We also have to arrange a good opportunity for the other party to make a move. "
"Okay, Mr. Liu. I can arrange it now, but … you won't be in danger in such a head-on confrontation, right?" Sun Lan Lan understood what Liu Xiaojiang meant, but she still looked a little worried.
Hearing this …
Liu Xiaojiang looked at Sun Lan Lan with a smile that was not a smile. "Miss Lan Lan, please rest assured. Since the company agreed to send me alone, I naturally have the confidence to deal with the troublemaker."
"If I encounter him …
I promise to give the bodyguards' families a very reasonable explanation. "
…
Half an hour later …
Liu Xiaojiang followed behind Sun Lan Lan with a calm expression and returned to the chairman's office inside the group. However, he did not directly enter the office. Instead, he chose to stay outside the office alone.
[Brother Xiao Jiang, what exactly are you planning to do? (Question)]
Liu Xiaojiang was sitting on a chair outside the office. He looked like a door god with a righteous look on his face. He looked at the words on the phone screen and said,
"Isn't the situation very clear now?"
"The other party is just a guy who can't integrate into the mutant circle, or his temperament has changed drastically because of the awakening of his innate ability. Since such a guy wants to target the Sun Group's director's family, no matter what his motive is,
He won't give up so easily. "
[He's just a lunatic. Would he really be so persistent? This guy might also be planning to rob a bank, right? (Suspicious)]
Seeing this …
Liu Xiaojiang shook his head with a smile that was not a smile. "If he wasn't persistent and stubborn, how could he go crazy for no reason? Moreover, he could target anyone, but he targeted the Sun Group, a financier who has a close relationship with the company and the Ten Great Bosses."
"Alright, even if he isn't a guy who can't integrate into the mutant circle, but an ordinary person who suddenly awakened his innate ability, could it be that robbing the Sun Group, in the eyes of ordinary people …?"
"Is it definitely less impactful than robbing a bank?"
[There's something fishy about this! (Suddenly Enlightened)]
"I don't know what's fishy."
Liu Xiaojiang slowly raised the corner of his mouth in deep interest. "However, this matter is definitely not as simple as it looks on the surface. Maybe something more interesting will happen."
[Heh, Brother Xiao Jiang, why do I feel like you want things to become more complicated? Have you forgotten that in the end, only the company's subsidies are left? (Smirk)]
"F * ck."
