The king's man
A strange smile flashed across Xiao Zheng's face, and he joked: "I just want to be a man with choices."
Sophia's eyes changed slightly, then she pursed her lips and smiled: "This day will come soon. I believe it."
After concluding the negotiations with the Skeleton Legion, Xiao Zheng still stood still and moved to a hotel to continue living in seclusion. This time, he was not worried about the skeleton army's counterattack, but that he was waiting for news from Dave.
Since the Skeleton Army has colluded with local companies, it is naturally most appropriate to leave this matter to Dave.
Three days later, Xiao Zheng received a call from Dave.
"President. It's been resolved." Dave's respectful voice came from the other side of the phone. It's obvious that he has fully adapted to his new identity. Xiao Zheng could also tell from his tone whether the respect was a compliment or sincerity.
As expected of a mercenary from the strict system of the Skeleton Legion, he has an innate talent in this area. I know how to find my own position.
"How to deal with it afterwards?" Xiao Zheng adjusted his uncomfortable mentality and asked slowly.
"Those bosses have promised to fully retreat. They will not cause any obstacles to the Phantom." Dave said in great detail. "And, some help will be given."
"Are you taking action?" After Xiao Zheng pondered for a moment, his thin lips opened slightly.
Dave nodded slightly awkwardly and said, "Kill one." After a slight pause, he continued to explain. "If you don't kill me, these gangsters won't be afraid."
"Forget it this time." Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and said. "After the union is established, you must be careful in your words and deeds. Make it clear what you should do and what you should not do."
"Understood." Dave nodded and asked again. "President. Miss Sophia's troops have also arrived. Do you have the latest instructions?"
Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Which aspect?"
Dave on the other side of the phone was stunned, and then said in a very casual tone: "In all aspects-"
Xiao Zheng raised a smile on his lips and joked: "Dave, I understand what you mean. I also appreciate your vigilance in this regard." After a pause, Xiao Zheng said slowly and slowly. "But you don't have to be too wary of Sophia, or Fox Hunter. The reason why I am the president of this association is that I can definitely stabilize the situation. As for Sophia, you can rest assured to cooperate with her. She will not mess around behind her back. Come."
Dave nodded heavily, faintly hearing Xiao Zheng's implication.
Will Sophia not mess around, or does she not dare to mess around
Xiao Zheng said that he could stabilize the situation, that is to say - whether it was Dave or Sophia. It's impossible for him to play tricks under Xiao Zheng's nose.
After receiving Xiao Zheng's promise, Dave smiled thoughtfully and said: "President, I know what to do."
"Let's get started. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me." Xiao Zheng smiled and hung up the phone.
After resting in the house for three days, Xiao Zheng originally wanted to inform Ouyang that they were back on track, and that they should relax when they should work. But as soon as he left the door, there were two rows of majestic men in military uniforms striding towards the end of the corridor. In the middle, walking was a man in casual clothes in his early fifties with slightly white hair on his temples.
The body is like an iron tower, and the eyes are like thunder and lightning. Full of aura.
When Xiao Zheng saw this group of people walking towards him, his heart moved slightly. Just as he was about to turn around and go back to his room to avoid this group of unknown military figures, the man in civilian clothes in the middle suddenly spoke and said in very proficient English: "Mr. Xiao ?”
Um
Can you call me by my name
Xiao Zheng suddenly became wary!
He was certain that he had no interaction with this person. Not even a nod of acquaintance. But the other party called out his name. This proves that the other party has checked your information!
As for how much he knew, Xiao Zheng didn't know.
At first he wanted to avoid it because he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. But at this moment, the other party actually took the initiative to say hello, so he couldn't avoid it.
He turned his head slightly, looked at the other person with a puzzled look, and asked aloud: "Are you calling me?"
"Yes."
Soon, the middle-aged man slowly approached. Standing in front of Xiao Zheng.
Xiao Zheng looked at the other party with a very polite look, and then took a look at the ten men in military uniforms following the man. Just relying on his sixth sense, Xiao Zheng was able to tell that this person had a good status. At least he's a general-level officer.
"Do we know each other?" Xiao Zheng asked tentatively after a moment of silence.
"Don't we know each other now?" the middle-aged man said with a smile.
Xiao Zheng nodded and said with a very calm smile: "Please come in."
After that, he opened the door and invited the middle-aged man into the house.
The other party was not polite and walked straight into the room. But he waved away ten men in uniform who tried to follow him into the house. Quite the style of a general.
After entering the room, Xiao Zheng personally brought a cup of coffee to the middle-aged man, then slowly sat across from him and asked in a very calm tone: "What do you want from me?"
So far, Xiao Zheng could only judge that the other party was a military figure. As for its purpose and intention, he had no idea. Even good and evil cannot be distinguished.
This made Xiao Zheng feel a little confused and wary.
But he dared to let the other party enter the room, and he didn't even mind that the dozen or so soldiers followed him into the room. It proves that he doesn't take the other party seriously. If he takes action, he is sure to kill everyone within a minute without even hearing the sound of gunfire.
But the middle-aged man waved away everyone, which sent a good signal to Xiao Zheng.
Maybe - he meant no harm
"You must be able to tell. I am from the military?" The middle-aged man's face was wheat-colored. It’s not as pure black as the local chocolate in South Africa.
"Yeah." Xiao Zheng nodded and smiled. "Your temperament is awe-inspiring."
"Hahaha." The middle-aged man suddenly laughed. He gave Xiao Zheng a meaningful look. "You're such a sucker for flattery."
Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "I am telling the truth. Your temperament and appearance remind me of my old boss in the army."
"Are you talking about General Jiang?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Do you know him?" Xiao Zheng said unexpectedly.
The middle-aged man nodded. Then he stared deeply at Xiao Zheng: "I came here to see you this time because I want to talk to you about the Skeleton Army."
Sure enough!
Xiao Zheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, but his face remained calm as he asked in confusion: "Skeleton Legion? What is that?"
Xiao Zheng would not talk nonsense until he figured out the other party's purpose. Missed the bottom.
"Don't know?" the middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly and pursed his lips. "Just a few days ago, you killed two senior leaders of the Skeleton Legion. James and Shanta. Don't you even know the identities of the people you killed?"
