The Outcast

Chapter 202: An axe cuts out a future (below)

Views:

There are many apartment buildings on Thirteenth Avenue in the Capital District. Outside the gates of high-end apartments shrouded in orange lights, taxis stop and go, and women holding flowers enter and exit them with a lonely expression. On the side of the street, I could see a middle-aged man hurriedly walking with newspapers rolled up, and an old lady who was hobbled by a few big dogs. The wild cat, attracted by the smell of hot vegetable oil and bread, leaned down under the iron railing next to the apartment, emitting pitiful eyes.

This is a city full of power. The rent of apartments on Thirteenth Avenue is extremely high. Most of the residents are the staff of the federal government or the top executives of large companies. Only these people don’t care about paying the HTD Bureau every year. Large taxes required to keep pets.

In recent years, high-end prostitutes from the Federation have also begun to enter Thirteenth Street, because they know that the security and environment here, as well as the big people living here, can provide them with a steady stream of customers.

Xu Le came up from the underground parking lot at the intersection of the street and felt that the weather was a little hot, so he took off his jacket and put it on his arm. Although he still retains the military position of a civilian second lieutenant, he has already entered the White Water Company and does not need to be used every day. All wear military uniforms.

Passing silently downstairs of those high-end apartments that stood in the clouds, he suddenly laughed, thinking that outside the Linhaizhou nightclub last year, Shi Qinghai satirized Zou Yu's perfume, which only high-end prostitutes on Thirteenth Avenue would use. Unexpectedly, life did not pass so quickly. The man and woman, who seemed to be inseparable forever, had a child because of a crazy night.

Looking at the house number of a high-end apartment building, it was confirmed that it was one hundred and eighty-seventh. Xu Le walked in, reported a temporary pass number to the security at the front desk, and was politely brought to the door of the elevator by the gray-haired butler.

The elevator opened, and a waiter led Xu Le to the corridor on the right.

The more he walked, the more silent Xu Le became. Only then did he realize that the top three floors of this high-end apartment building had been completely opened up, the side of the corridor was quiet, but the dome above his head was all made of transparent tempered glass. Not sure how much it will cost to remodel.

At the end of the promenade is a small room. The wallpaper of green flowers covers all the space. There is an oil painting on the wall, which is a golden and dazzling sunflower. Opposite the oil painting is a glass window with green plants densely placed on the windowsill, among which flowers are blooming.

There are flowers in the eye, and there are flowers in all directions. However, these gorgeous and stacked colors make it difficult to feel cumbersome and disgusting. Instead, they only feel that the colors are bright and cheer up.

Just like the bedroom in Qingteng Garden, Li Xiaotong is always surrounded by flowers. It seems that only in this way can the seventh young master of the Li family convince himself that he is just a playboy.

What Xu Le saw for the first time was not Li Xiaotong, who stood like a plum when he was cold and cold, but the silent middle-aged bodyguard Zeng brother behind Li Xiaotong. Brother Zeng was standing behind Li Xiaotong's chair at this time, his hands were calmly behind him, and he looked like a gun tightly bound by coarse cloth for countless layers.

Li Xiaotong saw Xu Le walk in, smiled slightly, stood up, and stretched out his hand: "I am surprised and happy that you can come."

Xu Le stretched out his hand awkwardly and shook hands with him. He has seen a lot of big people over the years, and has been to a lot of high-end places. The heart that was shocked by the picturesque scenery of Mochou Houshan should not have been shocked by Li Xiaotong's three-story empty building, but after all, he He is still just a small person in his bones, and coming here today is the first time to have a head-to-head dialogue with the big figures in the Federation as an equal, so he is a little uncomfortable.

Visiting Qingteng Garden at night, Xu Le's knife did not cut off Li Xiaotong's head. On the one hand, he knew that Pu Zhihao was not sent by the seventh young master of the Li family. On the other hand, it was also because the silent brother Zeng seemed too much. tough. After the conversation that night, Lee Hyo-tong helped him hide the news of Park Ji-ho's death for a while. Although he didn't do much, he helped Xu Le after all.

This morning on the road in the suburbs, Xu Le received a call from this person, and after thinking about it for a whole day, he decided to come to the banquet, but he did not understand why the other party wanted to meet him. Logically speaking, everyone thought that He lost the battle for lab data, and he shouldn't have any value that could be exploited.

Xu Le believed in the secret work of the Tai family, even the young master of the Li family could not know that he still had key data.

As for Li Xiaotong's words on the phone that followed him, Xu Le couldn't even laugh.

The richest of the seven families in the Federation is the Tie Shuan Li family. According to Zou Yu, although Li Xiaotong ranks seventh in this generation, he is actually the second-order successor. Would such a talented person follow him? It's too ridiculous to be a joke.

In fact, after Xu Le walked into this room, the seventh young master of the Li family seemed to have forgotten what he had said on the phone, and just chatted with him gently, introducing the oil paintings of flowers and trees in the room.

"Lin Banshan once said that the old men in the federation are already rotten, and they always like to do things in the company of tea, in the heat of the hot spring, after pondering with each other for ten or twenty years before revealing their true thoughts. ."

The dishes have been placed on the table, the aroma is not very strong, but the taste seems to be very good. Maybe it's because you don't want the aroma of the dishes to mix with the flowers in the room? These sons of aristocratic families are always so picky when it comes to details. Xu Le took a sip of water and squinted to listen to Li Xiaotong.

He had heard about the name Lin Banshan many times, but he only knew that this person was an alternative in the Lin family of the Seven Great Families, and that the Linyuan that Xu Le had been to twice was his property. What made him feel a little weird was that whether it was Li Xiaotong or Zou Yu, when they mentioned the name Lin Banshan, they would show a considerable degree of respect and a bit of weird emotion.

"My eldest brother has no children, only Lin Banshan."

Li Xiaotong was cutting the dishes on the plate, and the frank smile on his slightly lowered face did not completely disappear the smell of sinister prey, "He doesn't even look down on your friend, the prince of the Tai family. Upper eyes. Although I always thought that my eldest brother had a good skin, I have to admit that I am also vigilant and respectful of Lin Banshan. "

Xu Le didn't know where Lin Banshan was sacred, at least at this time he didn't need to know.

"Lin Banshan said that when you open the door, you have to see the mountain, and when you see the mountain itself, you can stand still and let the wind blow from all sides."

Li Xiaotong put down his knife and fork, looked at Xu Le across the table and said, "So I'll get straight to the point. I don't care about the problems between the family and you, and the lady behind you, I want to establish a certain relationship with you. It's a personal friendship, and that's why I made a special trip to invite you here today."

In the night of Qingteng Garden, Li Xiaotong once expressed a similar meaning to Xu Le, but he didn't have time to say it more thoroughly. Hearing this sentence, Xu Le was stunned. He looked down at the ordinary coat on the chair beside him, and couldn't quite understand the meaning of the other party.

That night, Li Xiaotong asked Xu Le to introduce him to Tai Zhiyuan at the right opportunity, but Xu Le believed that just such a little interest was not enough for the other party to meet him so formally.

"I think you should know that the data from the laboratory has already reached the Federal Academy of Sciences. Even if you want to sabotage the master plan of the Li family, I'm useless."

Xu Le replied, his eyes narrowed slightly. To this day, he was just like on the terrace of Mochou's back mountain. He was really not used to the atmosphere of this conversation. Since the other party was willing to cut to the chase, he didn't have any hesitation.

If Secretary Shen's willingness to cooperate with Xu Le is because of Tai Zhiyuan's relationship and because he is very aware that Xu Le holds mecha data that may affect the presidential election, what about Li Xiaotong? Xu Le didn't think that such a small person was qualified to win each other's personal friendship.

"This is really a pity, my eldest brother was persuaded by the old fox of Medellin Congressman and got into the presidential election. He thought it was a very delicious cake, but in my opinion, he But it’s not doing business properly.”

Li Xiaotong smiled, but the sinister color between his brows was still strong.

"But I told you that night that I don't care about the presidential election at all. No matter how the federal president changes, the Seventh Family will still be the Seventh Family. This is something that history has long proven."

"But I'm the kind of person your family doesn't like after all," Xu Le said.

"As long as I like it." Li Xiaotong sipped the champagne in his glass and said slowly: "Our Li family has always been in business. My eldest brother has been doing well these years. The old men in the family like him very much. He crosses the line... but he doesn't know that the deeper the line is, the greater the risk, but I don't want to do it. I only do business to make money, so why bother with those things."

Xu Le felt that the other party was about to get to the point.

"I'm not Li Xiuzhu, I'm just a businessman, I only do what a businessman should do." Li Xiaotong stared at him and said, "I want to invest in you."

"I don't know what potential value I have to invest in the Seventh Young Master of the Li Family."

"You underestimate yourself." Li Xiaotong looked at him quietly and said: "Without data, you still have this person who can easily break through the defense of Qingteng Garden and the three-layer scanning of the research institute, which is unfathomable. The guy, I can't just let it go."

"Of course, I certainly wouldn't invest in you as a killer."

Brother Zeng still stood behind Li Xiaotong calmly and silently. Based on this, Xu Le knew that Li Xiaotong was an unusual person. The powerful bodyguard sent by the family to his side didn't need to be guarded. This person's ability is evident. .

"Maybe it's a gamble, but I'm willing to gamble." Li Xiaotong continued: "I think even Mrs. Tai is willing to meet someone in person. If I bet on him, even if I lose, I won't lose. too much."

Xu Le was slightly startled, but did not expect that the person who gave Li Xiaotong his heart was actually the meeting with Mochou Houshan yesterday.

"There is an elder leading the way. If I don't know how to follow along and grab a bowl of soup, then I don't deserve to be a businessman."

"Of course there is risk in investing, but it is this risk that brings benefits."

"You don't know that Mrs. Tai is rarely seen, but I am willing to bet on you, not only because of this, but also because of what you have shown in this matter." Li Xiaotong suddenly laughed: "The Federation It is a place with rules, whether it is the old men of my family, the lady of the Tai family, or even the Commander Zhong of Xilin, they actually have to do things according to certain rules, but you are different."

Li Xiaotong's eyes narrowed, staring at his face very seriously, and said, "You have something eclectic about you, those unreasonable axes actually hit my eldest brother and the hypocrites of the Academy of Sciences. So embarrassed... In this world where rules must be followed, if you don't follow rules, this is destined to be extremely miserable if you don't die in the future, or you will have a completely different future."

"The last person in this circle to be so unruly was Lin Banshan."

"No matter how arrogant the little madman in the Li family is, there is still an old man who is holding him down. Except for Lin Banshan and you, I can't see anyone else in this circle. keep your things."

"I also have to follow the rules, so I know that Park Zhiho is plunged into the arms of the big brother, but I can't do anything. It is precisely because of this that he is so presumptuous."

"Speaking of which, thank you for helping me kill him." Li Xiaotong's tone faded. "The problem at the moment is that this home will never be mine if I'm also following the rules, so I have to invest in someone who is completely unruly."

"I haven't made up my mind a few days ago." Li Xiaotong's indifferent and arrogant face, like a plum blossom, showed a faint expression. "But your unreasonable axe in the laboratory really hit my vitals."

The lethal power of this kind of resentful expression is really too great. If Shi Qinghai showed this expression, it would probably be a bit tempting. The rumored handsome young master of the Li family, Li Xiuzhu, put on such an expression, probably There is also a bit of charm, only Li Xiaotong is gloomy, surrounded by flowers, but he sighs quietly, just like the pine and cypresses under the snow suddenly become as delicate as the flowers in the greenhouse, which makes people feel at a loss.

In Zou Yu's words, Xu Le is an outsider who is unreasonable, ignorant, and slammed into this circle even before he understands what happened. He has talent, and in terms of calmness, he has talent, but after all, he is still an unpolished stone, blindly persistent, but slightly clumsy, and he does not understand many aspects.

After a long silence at the dining table, Xu Le used the mind of an engineer to carefully arrange the things he needed in his plan, and then realized that no matter what the seventh young master of the Li family said was true or not, it seemed that he was in this federation, and he really had already There is nothing that cannot be lost.

So he grinned and said seriously, "I need a lot of money."

In the suburb of the southwest corner of the Capital District, several highways converge here, and then extend to the states of the federal S1 planet.

It was nine o'clock at night, and the highways were brightly lit, but there were not many vehicles going back and forth. On the contrary, behind a hill next to the highway, on both sides of a road without street lights, there were a lot of people and it was very lively. Countless famous brand sports cars gather here, and the modified headlights emit a dazzling light, which illuminates this usually quiet and almost abandoned highway.

A convoy of four vehicles descended the out-of-town expressway and rounded the hill. The scene of the loud horns on both sides of the road became much quieter because of the arrival of this convoy. Countless pairs of eyes were cast over, and many people recognized the faint blue silver ghost. The Silver Ghost is the most expensive sports car in the Commonwealth. However, this Silver Ghost, which is not silver, is more famous on this hilly road.

Not everyone knows that this silver ghost belongs to the second heir to the Tie Suanli family, but everyone knows that the owner of this car has a cold temperament and is a very difficult person to mess with.

Attracted by this silver ghost, few people noticed the unmarked, very ordinary-looking black car in the convoy.

The convoy drove all the way to the end of the mountain road, the extremely quiet highland, and then slowly stopped. Li Xiaotong and Xu Le got out of their cars respectively, watching the lively scene on the road not far under their feet, the bodyguard Zeng brother stood indifferently behind them both.

It is absolutely inappropriate to describe Xu Le and Li Xiaotong at this time with their own ghosts. In front of these children of aristocratic families, Xu Le does not have any ability to calculate people, and a big man like the Seventh Young Master of the Li family is not worth the money. It is natural for Xun Zun to have a plan when interacting with Xu Le, but the plan is still in the distance, and it is not in the immediate interests at all.

Since Li Xiaotong decided to establish a personal friendship with this young second lieutenant, he naturally needed to get along with each other and look at each other's temperaments. One meal was not enough. So he took Xu Le to the western suburbs of the capital, the paradise of the desperate drag racing party.

"I know your girlfriend has been dead for half a year." Li Xiaotong glanced at Xu Le's face beside him, and said calmly, "I have a lot of properties on Thirteenth Avenue, and those high-end prostitutes have to look at my face, but you If you don't want to accept it, I have to bring you here to see it."

Xu Le was speechless. He didn't know if Li Xiaotong mentioned Zhang Xiaomeng's death had any meaning. He never forgot the separation of life and death hidden behind the shady politics of the federal government. He forcefully seized the data left by Professor Shen. When standing with the seven young masters of the Li family, on the one hand, he wanted to win the honor for Professor Shen he deserved, and on the other hand, he had to make arrangements for his own plans.

What's amazing is that although the Seventh Young Master of the Li family has a lot of money and can smash people to death, he doesn't have too many unpleasant manners. Xu Le now gradually understands that these so-called children of aristocratic families, the richer and more powerful people are, the more low-key they are. What surprised him was that Li Xiaotong was gloomy and indifferent, but he paid great attention to the tone of his speech when he was talking to him.

In this respect, Li Xiaotong is even better than Tai Zhiyuan, and there is absolutely no natural sense of superiority. This should be something hidden in the bones of the children of the aristocratic family, but Li Xiaotong can hide it so well, Xu Le Watching silently, I thought to myself that Li Xiuzhu's real heir, I'm afraid I really need to be more careful.

Xu Le remained silent, but Li Xiaotong had no opinion. He pointed to the sports cars on the road and said with a smile, "The first time I met you at the intersection of Qingshan Park, I knew that you don't like the rich people racing cars, and regard human life as if they were people. Nothing. But here is different. It was originally the Shoujing Expressway. Later, the new road was built, and the old road was abandoned. There have always been very few vehicles and pedestrians passing by, and the guys racing the cars are all professionals, so they can be sure of safety.”

"I have no interest in racing." Xu Le shook his head.

"Really? You chased me and Zou Yu a little embarrassedly on the No. 2 highway that day." Li Xiaotong smiled and said, "Of course, you are used to driving the specially-made car of the Crown Prince now. Looking at these so-called famous brand sports cars, it is naturally a little inconspicuous."

Xu Le shook his head again. He noticed that there was a temporary prefab house next to the road. There was a faint blue light from the computer screen in the prefab room. After thinking for a while, he guessed what was going on there. Surprised, he said, "You are so professional in making bets?"

"Don't underestimate the stakes here. Twelve years ago, Lin Banshan started here."

Li Xiaotong's expression calmed down, and when he mentioned that person's name, he couldn't help but feel a little fascinated, and said leisurely: "The Lin family was the same as our Li family is now, and several of the children are very good, in order to compete for the previous generation. Acknowledging, they are both busy and happy, Lin Banshan is the youngest of their generation, but also the most promising one."

He suddenly shook his head and said with admiration: "As a result, on the eighteenth birthday, Lin Banshan said with a sneer in front of the guests and family elders in the courtyard, I am too lazy to ask for such a shit-like family business. In other words, he ate a piece of cake, kowtowed three times to his parents, and left the Lin house without looking back."

Hearing this story, Xu Le's eyes couldn't help narrowing.

"Lin Banshan is proud but not stupid, but at that time he was too rebellious in his bones, and he felt disdain when he saw those brothers frowning every day. country."

"After leaving the Lin family, Lin Banshan's first stop was here. At that time, the Shoujing-Xinjiang Expressway had just opened, and he opened a casino here, betting on drag racing. In half a year, he made his first pot of gold. "

"Then, he used the money to buy the restaurant like a guest house in the HTD Bureau, which is the current Linyuan."

"Linyuan?" Xu Le knew that Linyuan was the property of Lin Banshan, but he did not expect that many years ago, Lin Banshan, who had become a legend, would be able to buy that piece of land based on the income from illegal racing.

"So don't underestimate the income here." Li Xiaotong said calmly: "They are all children of aristocratic families, and they all know how rich the family's industry is, but Lin Banshan said that if you don't want it, you don't want it, and you walk in a dashing and arrogant way. Golden Spoon grew up, but without his courage, I felt ashamed at the thought of it."

The Seven Families of the Federation are not ordinary families, nor ordinary industries. Even if they fail to compete for the right of inheritance, they can still enjoy a lifetime of wealth and privileges that the citizens of the Federation can never imagine. That Lin Banshan slapped his butt and left at the age of eighteen, leaving behind disdainful words and walking so arrogantly...

"This universe, this federation, is made up of countless rules. Mysterious like Mrs. Tai, powerful like your Excellency the President, and sublime like a military god, you still have to take care of the interests of all parties, constantly compromise and strive, between those lines Seeking balance." Li Xiaotong said indifferently: "Lin Banshan broke the rules. I think one day in the future, maybe you can break it too."

"I'm not a person in this circle, and naturally there are no rules for me." Xu Le replied.

The modified sports car roared loudly, and car owners who were concerned about speed were naturally reluctant to use electric power or hybrid power for waste wood power. The pungent smell of powerful gasoline gradually filled the road around the road.

The curvy girl on the road at the foot of the mountain is waving the flag and leading the car to the track. Every now and then, the crashed car is towed back by the heavy trailer, and there are always ambulances on standby below the road. , only the swearing and whistling all around revealed the darkness and danger hidden in this place.

Xu Le calmly watched what happened here on the mountain. He didn't pay attention to the outcome of these sports cars. He just thought about the intention of the person named Lin Banshan and the seven young masters of the Li family who brought him here.

According to Li Xiaotong, Lin Banshan has not returned to this hill for many years, and the casino here has already been handed over to someone else, but the rules set by this person twelve years ago are still there, no one dares to make any changes, and no one The young man with short eyes dares to violate these rules. After not returning for several years, Yu Wei is still so serious, I have to say that the rebellious son of the Lin family is really a very remarkable person.

"Would you like to play a small bet?"

Li Xiaotong looked at Xu Le who was silent, and felt more and more that his investment was very good. He had never seen a young man who could be so calm in a place where the hormones were extremely strong. If all the people in the federation were like People like Xu Le, I'm afraid that no matter how powerful Lin Banshan was back then, he wouldn't be able to make any money.

"If I had money, I wouldn't ask you for money." Xu Le said with a smile, but his eyes narrowed, and he found a figure in the sports car waiting on the road below, which he felt a little familiar.

"Investment is another matter. The decoration and the few broken paintings in the room where I ate today cost me more than four million yuan. The money you want will naturally be charged to your account tomorrow."

"It hit the account you set up for me." Xu Le corrected.

Li Xiaotong smiled slightly, the hem of the black coat on his body swayed slowly in the night wind, and said, "In addition to investing, it is also possible to communicate with friends. If you don't have money, I will lend you some small things. Note, it's always okay."

"I don't borrow money. If I don't pay it back, I owe it. Like you said, it's not the same as investing."

"Your uncle." Li Xiaotong wondered if he was used to acting gloomy in front of his eldest brother and clan elders over the years. no?"

"Why do I have to bet?" Xu Le looked at him curiously.

Li Xiaotong replied calmly: "People who do business are very superstitious, and I also pay attention to a good luck. If nothing else, you are probably the most adventurous and largest investment I have ever made in my life. Come here tonight and try it out. Luck, get a good start."

"If I lose the bet, you will continue to invest in me." Xu Le said with a smile: "Then what's the point of us betting on cars?"

"What if you win?"

At this moment, a group of people next to the hills and heights suddenly became noisy. It seemed that they had made a big bet and were very confident, so those young masters were shouting something loudly. As Li Xiaotong said, there are rules everywhere in the federation. The roads are crowded with excited people, but there are not many people on the hills. Only people with status can come here.

"It's the son of the deputy speaker's family. He doesn't know who I am, and we haven't spoken to each other." Li Xiaotong glanced over there and said to Xu Le.

The Deputy Speaker of the Federal Management Council is undoubtedly one of the most powerful figures. Even Li Xiaotong is reluctant to provoke the idiot son of the other party. Xu Le glanced over there and immediately retracted his gaze.

"The white sports car below is his. I heard that the driver is a professional driver specially invited from S3. The dividends won't be too much, because the odds are a bit pitiful. After all, this is a wild race, and no one is there. Dare to hope to win a professional driver.”

Li Xiaotong pointed to the cars on the road under his feet and said: "This kind of game is actually very unruly, but no one wants to care about him, so he has to lower the odds. Look at how many people are side by side with that car. The car is not well-known in the circle, obviously the owner is giving the Vice-President Young Master face and making him have a good time."

Over the years, under the suppression of his dazzling eldest brother, the Seventh Young Master of the Li family has been acting as a sinister, a playboy, and playing with beauties among the various planets in the Federation. He is very clear about these matters.

"Lend me a million." Xu Le squinted, looked at the road, and suddenly said.

"Borrow, not give?"

"It's also a favor to send. I'll pay it back to you."

"Legends don't appear in this place every day. Gambling like yours will really lose you." Li Xiaotong didn't really care about one million. He just followed Xu Le's eyes and found that the person beside him was staring at him. A race map is watching.

"No matter how you modify it, that race map will always be a loser." Li Xiaotong said, "Even if Lin Banshan drove it himself twelve years ago, it would still be a loser."

"You will definitely lose if you gamble, just like you invested in me." Xu Le looked at the somewhat inconspicuous Saitu sports car, and the man next to the car who looked like a delicate woman, squinting and said: "This hundred The risk you take is no greater than the risk you risk betting on me."

"It makes sense. I always thought that you were too calm and silent, but your young body is old-fashioned and smells of rust. It's rare to be crazy. I naturally want to see it."

Li Xiaotong laughed and asked his men to make a bet.

Xu Le looked at the handsome man next to Saitu's sports car, his expression was calm, but he was thinking of something else. He was not a man to gamble. He was curious about the resounding name of Lin Banshan, and bet on this kind of racing. But he didn't have the slightest interest. He was only interested in that handsome man. After all, he had to get along with that handsome man in the future. He wanted to know what kind of person he was.

There are not many people who care about this event. The odds are too different. The winner and loser have already been determined. There are very few people betting. There are no stakes. Suddenly, on the light screen outside the temporary prefab room, there was an extra 1 million bet on the game chart, which immediately caused a commotion in the field.

According to the current odds, if Saitu wins, the speaker will have to pay 7 million yuan. Such a big bet was rare even when Lin Banshan was in the battle in person.

The crowd on the other side of the hill cast a strange look at Li Xiaotong and Xu Le. There are not many people who can spend a lot of money to buy a refreshing one, and only these two groups of people on the hills and highlands have this kind of strength.

It's just that the people over there never thought that the professional racing driver in their hands would lose, and the deputy speaker even thought that this group of people deliberately lost a lot of money to themselves and wanted to make friends with them.

After ten minutes, everyone saw a shocking scene.

The crashed racing chart, which seemed to fall apart at any time, slowly drove back, and the slow speed was like a broken car pulled by an old cow in an ancient fairy tale. But the problem is that there is no other sports car behind this race map at all, including the famous sports car driven by a professional racing driver, and there is no trace.

Near the turning point in the distance of the old road of Shoujing Expressway, a fire can be vaguely seen. I don't know what happened, and the heavy trailer and the ambulance drove away in a hurry.

It was deadly quiet on both sides of the road, until the delicate man like a bitch climbed out of the set, and then there was a burst of harsh screams and cheers.

Li Xiaotong indifferently watched the excitement on the road, looked at the delicate driver, slowly turned his head to look at Xu Le, and said, "Looks like I found another unruly guy tonight."

Layers of doubts arose in his heart. Why did Xu Le know that Saituli was a crazy guy who was not afraid of death, let alone let people die? Obviously that driver is so delicate, gentle and calm like a virgin.

"There are a lot of unreasonable things in the federation, but there are also a lot of coincidences." Xu Le looked at the handsome man walking up the hill, lowered his head and said, "Maybe you don't believe me, I only met this person today. Yes, he's my secretary."

How much money a driver can get depends on how much other people bet on him, and he can get dividends from it. Magnolia needed money, so he came to fight for his life tonight, but if he didn't have the one million bet, even if he fought his life today, he could only get 110,000 from the hand of the speaker. He is still far from his goal.

So he went up the mountain in person to thank the gold master who gave him a lot of money. This has nothing to do with politeness, he only respects people who can give him money.

So when Magnolia saw that the gold owner who helped her earn a lot of money was actually the young technical director she had just met during the day, his face became a little strange, but he didn't say much, and said thank you to Xu Le , and left the mountain.

"This kind of fighting method, don't seek to hurt others, hurt yourself first, it has not appeared for a long time." Li Xiaotong looked at the delicate back on the mountain road and reminded Xu Le: "This kind of unruly gameplay , it is very easy to have an accident, do you want to send a few people over to take him home?"

Xu Le didn't say anything, just thought about the pair of delicate hands holding the folder. It was these hands that drove a racing car so crazy, and it was these delicate hands that drove the professional racing driver directly into a dead end. , A character with such hands would not die so easily.

Li Xiaotong walked towards the speaker. Even the son of the vice president of the Federation lost seven million all at once, and his face became extremely ugly or embarrassing, but I don't know what the seven young masters of the Li family said, the son of the speaker returned to the usual pride, gently. nodded.

"I'll pay you the money that this prodigal loser." Li Xiaotong walked back to Xu Le, looked at the chaos at the foot of the mountain, and said, "It seems that my investment will definitely pay off well."

After that night, Xu Le's life returned to a dull state. He lived in Wangdu's apartment every day, worked in the farm-like headquarters of Baishui Company in Xiao District, and occasionally made two phone calls with Zou Yu who returned home. Occasionally have two meals with Li Xiaotong, and see the true colors of the starlets in the Federation in front of money and wealth.

It's almost the same life as before, with some differences. He met Zhou Yu several times, passed on some data models, but kept the direct results of his and Professor Shen's research.

Li Xiaotong's large sum of money has been paid to the account, and Xu Le began to purchase the instruments and components he needed like an ant moving through the black market.

Xu Le didn't know how far the project at the Federal Academy of Sciences had progressed, or what the influence of Secretary Shen said on the Nutshell Engineering Department. He didn't even know the details of the Engineering Department's research on the new generation of federal mechas. But he asked the other party to give his data back.

The resources to be prepared have been prepared, and the assembly data that should have been obtained have also been obtained. The only thing needed is the failed MX prototype in Whitewater.

The secretary, Magnolia, came into his office to report to his office once a day, and then he could never be found again. This handsome man's attitude towards Xu Le did not change in the slightest because of the bet that night. indifferent.

After more than ten days like this, Xu Le felt extremely tired. At this moment, he couldn't help thinking of Shi Qinghai and the days when he cooperated with Shi Gongzi to fight against the FBI. The Federal Academy of Sciences and the Nutshell Engineering Department are secretly competing, and he has mastered the core data, but he can't use his hands and feet. He can't even trust the Tai family, let alone Li Xiaotong and Secretary Bai. He has always been indifferent, and he has no partner by his side. This kind of pressure is too great.

Shi Qinghai looked at the surveillance camera on the door with a smile on his face, holding a peace axe that he had picked up in the corridor with his hands behind him.

Then he slashed with an axe, ignoring the complete monitoring system and alarm system of the apartment, and smashed the door open like this.

The alarm sound did not sound.

Shi Qinghai kicked the man behind the door to the ground. After closing the door, he dragged the axe and walked towards the man on the ground.

The temperature in the apartment was extremely low, and the owner of the apartment was still wearing a fitted synthetic sweater on this late spring and early summer day.

Shi Qinghai didn't say a word to the man with flickering eyes, he just chopped down with an axe, cutting off his right hand.

Blood spurted wildly, screaming loudly.

Shi Qinghai let out a sigh of relief, his handsome face showed satisfaction, and said with admiration, "You make the young master easy to find."
