Serif has been keeping a low profile lately.
First, there was the incident of losing the horse, and then there was the incident of begging Antonis.
Then in the background was Country C’s vigorous suppression of illegal forces, as well as several troublesome figures in Shanlin City that he was afraid of...
Serif, who rarely travels around the world like a fish in water, had to restrain his sharp edge and be a law-abiding person... at least on the surface... under the unfavorable conditions of having his whereabouts exposed and leaving behind a secret case record on the first day he arrived in country C. tourists.
By the way, because he has not completely given up on Antonis, Serif, who was rejected, has no plans to leave the city immediately. He plans to at least stay for a while before the visa expires. See if things can turn around.
And just when Serif was not going to mess with anything, and just wanted to wait for the result quietly, a call from Ye Shuang unexpectedly disrupted all his plans.
…
"HI!" The naturally familiar female voice greeted me briskly on the phone, and said without any surprise and matter-of-factly: "Are you free recently? Help me steal someone."
“…”
The flaxen-haired young man's mind stopped for a few seconds, and he paused for this slightly novel phrase: "... I think you mean to express an affair or steal someone's heart? I'm sorry, although I am a thief, but This kind of issue related to moral principles cannot be compromised."
I heard that many people from country C are not good at practical English skills, no matter how high they get in the exam... As a man of grace, Serifu decided to generously forgive Ye Shuang for this slip of the tongue.
"Don't be ridiculous, you are a thief who has been paying attention to the FBI's files for many years. Talk to me about morality..." The female voice on the other side of the phone chuckled jokingly, and continued before Serifo could refute: "And you misunderstood what I said. Stealing people is the literal meaning of the phrase - help me 'steal' a 'person', so you can probably understand it?"
Serif: "...people can also steal?"
"Of course." The female voice said confidently with a smile: "Taking away items that do not belong to you without telling you first is called 'stealing'. And ignoring the other person's wishes and forcing them without asking Taking them away is called 'stealing'."
“…”
Serif felt that he was speechless very often today. Enduring the feeling of powerlessness as his temples twitched, the flaxen-haired young man decided to correct the other party's practical English mistakes for the last time, so he said seriously: "... You are wrong, that is called kidnapping."
Regardless of stealing people or kidnapping, Serifu ended up going anyway.
Being under the roof + asking for help from others = Serif had to bow his head and succumb to the malice of fate.
Besides, he was actually quite curious about which song Ye Shuang was singing.
When arriving at Ye Shuang's apartment, Serifu was not only delighted to see Antonis, whom he had longed for for a long time, but also saw another oriental young man whom he had never seen before.
"Let me introduce you first. The person who opened the door for you is called Xu Jian." Ye Shuang was lying on the back of Antonis' computer chair and looking at the screen. Without looking back, he saw Serif coming in from the door in the cold light reflection of the computer screen. So he introduced: "The person who wants to steal this time is his uncle, named Xu He... We plan to detain him abroad for a week and then take him back to China."
"Can I ask the reason?" Serifu smiled at Xu Jian, walked into the room in a natural manner, walked towards the two people at the computer and asked: "Why did you kidnap this gentleman's uncle? I thought this Maybe it’s not because of some family property dispute?”
"Of course not. If I have to say it..." Ye Shuang turned around and straightened up, holding the back of the chair with one hand and thinking for a while, considering how to explain the matter as clearly as possible without revealing too much: "You put this Think of it as well-intentioned coercion. For example, helping a loved one make up his mind to change his dangerous lifestyle habits."
Serif frowned and thought of an answer that was closest to an explanation: "Detox?"
After hearing this, Xu Jian staggered and turned back to look at Serifu in disbelief. She had no idea that this man's mind was so strange.
Even Ye Shuang was startled, and then nodded with uncontrollable laughter: "Yes, just to quit a certain kind of 'drug' that is very dangerous for him... That thing is addictive, and everyone knows the dangers, but There are always people who can't stand the temptation and try it. As Xu Jian's friends, we have to do this favor for him. "
Oh, judging from this reaction, I probably guessed wrong.
Serif nodded clearly and did not pursue the real reason. Anyway, he was just here to sell favors.
Continuing to walk towards the computer, after seeing the content on the screen clearly, Serifu suddenly understood the operation plan of these people: "You modify this person's information... Well, you want to make a new one for him. His identity is the same except that his face is the same as before?”
"Yeah." Ye Shuang also turned his gaze back to the computer that Antonis was operating. The latter didn't mind having so many people gathered behind him to visit, and his slender fingers moved quickly and dexterously across the keyboard. , making a dense and crisp knocking sound.
While operating, without affecting Antonis's words, he said briskly without looking back: "The original name and identity can be easily traced, although it is not sure if anyone will go to great lengths to find this person. Exit record, but what if something unexpected happens?"
"After confirming my identity, I can apply for a visa and passport... I will work overtime tonight to see if I can do it before tomorrow. I can leave at most the day after tomorrow." Antonis said with a smile: "We plan to send the person to Wyoming There is a small village in the state, where the scenery is beautiful, and mining and animal husbandry are also developed. I happen to have a safe house there, and I just need to find someone to guard it for a while."
Serif was speechless for a long time. Although he considered himself not a good person, after all, it was not so dangerous that he even prepared a safe house.
So when I first heard such a speech that violated the rule of law, even with Serif's past experience, I didn't know how to proceed.
Ye Shuang had just heard about Antonis's follow-up plan, and Deserif was equally surprised and asked the question he actually wanted to ask: "Do you even have a luxury luxury like a safe house?"
Antonis shrugged: "Of course it's a luxury for others, but I'm different." He blinked his head sideways and his big sky-blue eyes looked cute. Antonis explained with a cute look: "I'm Antonis, I want to There are too many people who want to ask me to fake their identity or get something, and many of them are willing to give me one or two safe houses in exchange."
After finishing speaking, it seemed a little strange: "I thought you wouldn't be so surprised. Didn't you plan to imprison that person?"
"..." Ye Shuang was speechless: "Although Xu He looks like an important character, in fact, to put it bluntly, he is just a cannon fodder with overambitious ambitions and insufficient abilities. He is not even very proficient in English. Even if he is left alone Overseas, he probably won’t be able to ask anyone for help... Unless he is smart enough and can think of committing a crime intentionally to get caught by the police, in which case there might be a possibility of getting a translator."
"Hey, it's my uncle after all." Xu Jian replied, and then explained: "The plan that Xiaoshuang and I originally discussed was that my uncle and I would live there for a while, and take care of his daily life and preventive measures. He ran away."
Antonis responded, then sighed: "What a simple and frugal plan."
Ye Shuang and Xu Jian: “…”
Serif coughed to attract everyone else's attention. When everyone's eyes were focused on him, he waved his hands helplessly: "So there is no work for me today?"
"Of course." Ye Shuang seemed a little confused: "Didn't I tell you before that I asked you to help steal people? If you don't steal people out of the country, how can we cope with the subsequent plans?"
Serif was speechless for a moment: "...haven't you already prepared your passport and visa?"
In other words, since he already has such a complete "legal" identity and procedures, why should he have to go through an extra step
Ye Shuang sighed: "The identity and procedures are for others to see, not for that person. Now the other problems can be easily solved. The key is... that person will definitely not be willing to cooperate with us and take the initiative to go abroad."
The Xihua Group in Shanlin City is currently in turmoil. Judging from Xu He's greed and courage, whether he is looking for an opportunity to take advantage of the situation or is afraid of being organized to settle accounts after escaping without permission, he will definitely not leave Shanlin City without authorization at this time.
But for Ye Shuang and Xu He, the best time to take action is only a few days. Otherwise, if the organization waits for a while, or Xu He finally can't hold back and takes action, the troubles to be solved will be more than that simple. .
It seems that Serifu still doesn't quite understand... Maybe he understands but would rather not understand... Ye Shuang simply said it more plainly: "Xu Jian and I are familiar faces. If he appears next to Xu He, we will wait until he disappears. It's easy for people to associate you with you. But not many people in Shanlin City know you. As long as you don't break out of old habits and take the initiative to run under the camera to make your presence known, no one will think that you kidnapped the person."
Having spoken so clearly, Serif finally had to face the reality: "So you want me to steal people... no, you want to kidnap them and hand them over to you?"
"That's right, we can't trust other people, and those people don't have as high abilities as you." Ye Shuang looked trusting and entrusted: "We have already found a way to sneak across, and there happens to be a friend in Chaohai City who can use the cruise ship Send us, you just have to ensure that you take him away without being discovered..."
Serif: "..." Thank you for trusting me so much! (To be continued)
