For ordinary federal citizens, such as Xu Le who was by the Donglin mine many years ago, the so-called Seven Great Families are some kind of mysterious and lofty beings that only exist in legends. They do not know which seven families stand at the top of human society, and One stop is thousands of years.
Relatively speaking, media reporters who have more access to relevant secrets may be able to clearly list the seven masters, but based on the kind of reverence that is almost in-depth instinct and a kind of tacit understanding that has been passed down for thousands of years, no media dares to report in depth on the seven. Our illustrious history and dazzling present.
Only the Xilin Zhong family is a special case. From the development of the Donglin mining area many years ago to the exile of the extreme west star region, this family holds military power and is almost like a separatist warlord. It has always been in front of the federal people and under the spotlight of the news media. , just like the scene flashing around the green space of the court at this time.
The news about the Zhong family, especially such an explosive guardianship of the little princess of the Zhong family, would not be foolishly missed by any professionally trained reporter, and when they found out that they were holding the hand of the little princess of the Zhong family along the quiet The final winner walking from the direction of the court on the shady snow-covered road... It was only when Colonel Xu Le turned out to be Colonel Xu Le that they realized that this news turned out to be more powerful than the explosion they had imagined.
Holding Zhong Yanhua's cool little hand that seemed a little stiff due to nervousness, Xu Le calmly answered the reporters' questions. The details of what happened in the court did not require him to retell the story to satisfy the interest of the readers, but he tried to pass With your own speech, clarify something behind the scenes of this lawsuit, and try not to make people misunderstand the wishes of the old man in Philadelphia.
After finishing the brief answer, the group turned and left. He took Zhong Yanhua's hand and walked to the convoy. When he was about to board the car, a familiar figure suddenly came into view. After a slight start, he handed Zhong Yanhua to Tian Dabangzi and said a few words in a low voice.
The black motorcade drove away slowly, and the elite special team loyal to the Zhong family's old house, guarding their princess, left this noisy and chaotic scene.
With the protection of these powerful Xilin soldiers who have experienced the blood and fire on the battlefield, and in a place like the Capital Special Economic Zone, and the terrifying Uncle Tian by his side, Xu Le is not worried about the safety of the little watermelon, and he did not find it. , In the second bulletproof car, Colonel Lake, the direct commander of the Xilin unit, was slowly taking off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, looking through the dark window glass, looking at his figure standing on the remnant snow, silently. thoughtful.
Watching the convoy leave, Xu Le turned his head to look for the familiar figure, but found Director Brin wearing a hat walking in front of him.
"I don't think your actions today are sensible."
Director Brin put his right hand in the pocket of his trench coat, holding a high-level encrypted phone, looking at Xu Le's face, and said solemnly: "Or, for such an important move, you should handle it more carefully, such as notifying me in advance. ."
Xu Le was silent for a moment, pondering his words. Although the seemingly ordinary official in front of him was not of high rank, the entire federation knew that he could represent the attitude of His Excellency President Pabble on certain occasions and at certain moments, and no one dared to despise him. he.
Director Brin came to the court today to pay attention to the progress of this important event on behalf of Mr. President. For the man in the official residence, the federation needed a united rear, so that the Xilin incident could be resolved as quickly as possible, and the government's strengthening of its control over Xilin was what he most wanted to see. Xu Le's sudden intervention in this matter may even represent the will of the old man in Philadelphia, which will only make this matter more complicated, prolong the time, and be more detrimental to the Federation.
"If I have the opportunity, I will personally explain to Mr. President." Xu Le replied.
Director Brin paused for a moment, frowned slightly and said, "Mr. President has been very busy recently, but I will convey your meaning to him clearly. In addition... If you have the opportunity, please greet the old man on my behalf."
"OK."
Director Brin left, and the representatives of several major families left. The old Zhong family had a gloomy expression on their crutches and Zhong Ziqi, who had a more gloomy expression, also took the transportation and left this solemn place surrounded by green trees. , the reporters in the distance keenly noticed that when the Zhong family left, the motorcade actually circled in a big circle, far away from where Colonel Xu Le was standing. It seemed that they didn't even want to brush shoulders with Xu Le. Pass.
The phone rang, and it was Zou Yu. Xu Le answered with a smile, and at the same time, he quickened his pace and walked towards the dark shadow behind the tree.
"I saw the news, congratulations on becoming the godfather of the little princess of the Zhong family."
From these words with a strong sense of sarcasm, it is obvious that Zou Yu is not in a good mood at the moment, without waiting for Xu Le to answer, she continued to say sharply: "About Xilin, what do you think you think? Every step you take in your victory is like a stab in the heart of someone you can't fight against."
"I know." Xu Le replied seriously to the phone: "But I think it should be able to cope. No matter how bad the situation is, it can't be worse than the previous years."
"No." Zou Yu said directly on the other end of the phone: "You are just a person, you have no soldiers, no troops, only the level of a deputy division and the reputation of a federal hero, since you have already started, then I must remind you, you The situation ahead...is the worst ever."
When the voice fell, the phone was hung up there. Xu Le stared blankly at the beeping phone in his hand, feeling that even the rushing tone had taken on the coldness that is unique to the woman in red, and shrugged involuntarily. , looked at the handsome man in the shadow of the building behind the tree and said, "Now I gradually understand why you, who are not good for men and women, have been unable to take down your own children."
Shi Qinghai snuffed out the Sanqi brand cigarettes with his fingers, and looked at the guy in front of him who he hadn't seen for a long time, thought that life and death were separated, but reappeared in front of him, with a charming and hateful smile still on his face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Find a quiet place. where, have a couple of drinks first."
In the humble tavern on the left side of the Nanqiao Gate of the first courtyard, the two men used four bottles of amber-colored spirits to complete their reunion. They did not sigh too much, and the meaningless chatter was too long, but it took a long time. They looked at each other in silence and toasted each other until their chest and abdomen were aching and happy, and they turned their emotions for more than a year into calm.
The drink was strong, but the two did not continue in this tavern, because this place was suitable for drinking, but it was still not the quietest place they needed. They threw the black car in the parking lot and took the underground express line to return. Go to Wangdu's apartment.
The monitoring equipment in the apartment was activated again, and the two people were very skillful in filtering the signal to confirm that there was no possibility of being monitored or monitored, and then sat down on the sofa.
With two glasses of clear water on the table, Shi Qinghai and Xu Le took out two lists at the same time and placed them beside the glasses.
"Stone, this is what I found."
"Rogue, this is mine."
