While Zhang Heng was talking to the old man in Tang suit, Chen Huadong also came over with a collection of poems. He was stunned when he saw the old man in Tang suit, but the latter greeted him kindly, "You are Chen Huadong, I am glad to meet you." your turn."
"Oh, I'm glad to meet you too." Chen Huadong said in a daze. He was a little confused about the current situation. He felt that he didn't know the old man in Tang suit, but when someone can call out your name and you When saying hello, most people will choose to agree first, and the old man in Tang suit seems to have chatted with Zhang Heng a few times before, it seems that he should be his elder or teacher or something.
Chen Huadong responded and turned his gaze to Zhang Heng, but the latter didn't seem to have any meaning to explain. Instead, he said to Chen Huadong, "I have found all the books. I don't think I have anything to do here, so I'll take a step ahead." .”
"Okay, if you have something to do, do it first." Chen Huadong didn't see the relationship between the old man in Tang suit and Zhang Heng until the end, but this didn't prevent him from seeing that the two should have something to talk about, so he nodded.
The old man in Tang suit went to the counter to check out the books in his hand. Besides the book under his arm, he also bought a booklet on self-driving tour and a book on cat behavior. Traveling, or planning to stay at home with cats.
Zhang Heng went directly downstairs and walked out of the bookstore.
Half a minute later, the old man in Tang suit also went downstairs with the packed book, "I remember that there is a delicious yogurt ice cream here, do you want one?"
Of course, the old man in Tang suit didn't show up in the bookstore to invite Zhang Heng to eat ice cream.
The two don't meet frequently, so far there are only 4 times in total. Although sometimes the two seem to meet by chance, it turns out that the other party has a purpose every time they appear.
The first time was an agent invitation, the second time was to join forces to solve Moresby, and the third time was to avoid conflict between him and the Lady Justice, and this time was of course no exception.
But Zhang Heng was not in a hurry, he was waiting for the old man in Tang suit to speak first.
Then the two came to an online celebrity yogurt ice cream shop together. The old man in Tang suit bought two large portions of yogurt ice cream, and asked to add all the ingredients that could be added, and then handed one of them to Zhang Heng, "I know There are some misunderstandings between us, you can’t trust me 100%, it’s normal, the ancient kings couldn’t trust their direct blood relatives, let alone modern society, everyone has their own little secrets.”
"You should know that I saw the name of the book. Even if you take the book away, I can still buy it in the bookstore." Zhang Heng took the ice cream and finally said.
"Of course, of course, they printed a lot of copies, in various languages, in various presses... millions of copies, I can't possibly buy them all, and you can find them online." The old man in Tang suit nodded and said, "Actually, all I can do is give you advice from the perspective of a partner and an old friend, try to stay away from these books."
"Interesting, I thought you would want me to investigate."
"Why do you say that?"
"The little gift you gave me, on the surface, is a cheat to help me prolong the game time, but it is actually related to my body. You know that as time goes by, some changes will occur in my body, right?"
The old man in Tang suit sighed, "You know that there is no right or wrong in many things, it's just that things happen sooner or later, and the possible results will be different, so in the final analysis, all of this is actually related to timing. You like a girl, falling in love with her too early may not make it to the end, too late, maybe the other party is married, this is the importance of timing."
"Are you worried that I will cooperate with other people after learning about my own background?"
"No no no, I'm not worried about that, I mean... I'm not the only one actually following you, and not everyone likes you, so in order to protect you I have to be with someone I'm not too The guys you like cooperate, including letting you join this game, so that you can get the natural protection of the rules, except that you and Justitia faced each other that night, theoretically no one else can directly shoot you now, of course Except for their agents, which is why I keep reminding you to be careful about other agents... As you can see, I may agree with those guys in the general direction, we don't want anything to happen to you, but in details, we will too There were some disagreements about when exactly to let you know everything."
"You mentioned cooperation just now, who is the partner, the bartender at the game point?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Sorry I can't make a list for you because I'm a reputable partner and I've sworn not to name them even if I find out my other partners are cheating behind my back "The old man in Tang suit spread his hands, looking very helpless, and said sincerely, "I know you have always suspected that I was behind all this, but the truth is that you will be surprised when the truth is revealed, and you will find that I am the only one who has been standing all the time. On your side, like I said before, I'm like your little guardian angel."
"Why, have you changed to charity now?"
"Of course not. Everyone in this world has what they want, and I am no exception." The old man in Tang suit took a spoonful of yogurt and put it into his mouth, "It's just that my request will not harm your interests. I help you, you help me, it’s a win-win, perfect partnership, that’s what I’ve said since the first day we became partners, and we’ve always done that.”
"So you're telling me not to investigate any further?"
"You are an adult and have the right to make your own choices. I just tell you that what you are looking for may not be as good as you expected, and no matter what decision you make, I will support you with both hands, even if You want me to give you the book now, and I will do it right away." The old man in Tang suit scooped up too much ice cream every time, and ate the ice cream on his beard, making him look a little funny, "Oh, yes, I seem to I haven't congratulated you for winning the first round of the proxy war."
"Is there any point in this, anyway, you don't care about the outcome of this kind of thing, do you?"
"Who said that, of course I care. You represent my interests. I can watch the news about proxy wars every day." The old man in Tang suit said, "I am really happy for you, really, the reward for the final winner But something that even the gods would covet."
He patted Zhang Heng on the shoulder while talking, "Good luck, my old man."
