On the shore of Kaban Lake, Wei Ran, who had just returned home not long ago, was sitting alone by the sparkling lake, teasing Beria, the dog that was jumping up and down, while looking at the window of the room in the yard that reflected the dazzling sunlight.
From the beginning to the end, no one told him how many people had put in so much effort to find the missing team.
But the bayonet that originally nailed the mercenary in the sewer can be found and preserved, which is enough to hint at the efforts of too many people.
Deathstroke...what kind of organization is it...
Wei Ran exhaled forcefully and murmured to himself, "I really want to find a dummy to explain it to me. Well... maybe I can get a satisfactory answer from the bell ringer..."
"In this case, I don't have to go to the United States..." Wei Ran pulled the dog's head while planning this trip to the United States. If the assassination mission assigned to him by Metal Book last time was a last resort, then
This time, it was entirely his own subjective initiative. Of course, because the last assassination in the United States not only failed to arouse any suspicion, but also indirectly helped him create a HeLa organization, this inevitably made him less courageous.
A little bigger.
After patting his forehead, Wei Ran took the teething stick from the dog's mouth, rounded his arms and threw it into the yard across the road.
"Woof!"
Beria called to Weiran dissatisfied, shook his long fluffy hair, and ran to the alley leading to the yard. He pushed open the iron gate and got in.
At the same time, Wei Ran walked into the Time Library again while squeezing his right hand and muttering.
"Boss! Boss!"
When Lola saw Wei Ran coming in, she immediately stood on tiptoes and waved to him, "Boss, come here quickly!"
"What's wrong?" Wei Ran walked to the bar and looked at the girl with a bun face wearing the uniform of a Soviet female soldier in World War II.
"A few days ago, a black man brought a tea cup and a lot of euros!" Lola, standing across the bar counter, stood on tiptoe and said nervously, almost close to Wei Ran's ear, "That tea cup is full of diamonds! Boss
, you should be taken away by them quickly, I have to let Beria guard the door of the room when I sleep now."
"It's okay, diamonds are not valuable." Wei Ran smiled, "Where are you keeping them?"
"Here it is!"
After Lola finished speaking, she squatted down and pulled out a metal box from the bottom of the bar, and then pulled out an iron coffee bucket from inside.
"This coffee Baidu was sent by Sister Guanying. She said that these coffee beans were brought here by Sister Qianpao. They said they were grown on her estate in Hawaii."
While speaking, Lola unscrewed the lid of the coffee bucket, first took out most of the plastic-wrapped coffee beans, and then carefully took out a disposable paper coffee cup with a lid and handed it to Wei Ran, while mouthing
He kept saying, "The person who sent the coffee beans said that these coffee beans were sent by Sister Kou Kou. From now on, she will be responsible for providing free coffee beans for our consumption. Boss, do we need to pay for these?
The quality of the coffee beans is very good.”
"You don't have to pay, she likes to give it to you, just take it and use it." As Wei Ran spoke, he took the paper cup with a slight aroma of coffee beans. When he opened the lid, he immediately saw that there was more than half a cup in the paper cup.
Already cut diamonds of various colors!
He casually took out a colorless diamond about the size of a peanut and looked at it. With the little jewelry appreciation knowledge he had learned at the Hongqi Forest Farm, he could also tell that the clarity of this diamond had already changed.
It has completely reached the jewelry level.
He gently knocked on the paper cup in his hand, and as the beautiful small stones of various colors inside shook back and forth, he also discovered that most of the diamonds inside were the size of soybeans, like the one just now, and the diamonds inside were not even large when put together.
to ten.
But things like diamonds are not only about size, but clarity is also an important criterion. Just pour out a few and observe them. No matter which one of these cut stones has clarity, it can be used.
Making jewelry.
After he poured the small stones in his hand, which were shining brightly in the sun, back into the paper cup, Lola immediately opened another tin can that had just been taken out.
He took out five rolls of euros and pushed them to Wei Ran, "This was also sent by the black man. Boss, if we don't have to pay for those coffee beans, then do we want to give sister Kou Kou some dividends from our coffee business?"
"Give her a share of the dividend?"
Wei Ran was amused by this little guy who was sometimes smart and sometimes confused. He put rolls of cash into his pocket and said, "Lola, you are the owner of this coffee bar. I just put this bar and this place together."
The venue is only rented to you at a price of three hundred rubles per month. So you should ask yourself whether you want to pay her dividends."
"Boss, please stop making fun of me."
Lola rolled her eyes. The venue rental fee was three hundred rubles a month, the accommodation rent was three hundred rubles a month, the food expenses were three hundred rubles a month, and the water and electricity bills were one hundred rubles a month.
This total of one thousand rubles, which is equivalent to about one hundred yuan in RMB, is all the "living costs" for her, Sui Xin, and her sister Kolava here.
As for the money they make every month from their coffee and music business, after the Sui Dynasty, no matter how early Wei Ran was, Sui Wei would no longer drink with public accountants.
When Dan joined Lihu, at most he only paid Sui Xin a symbolic fee of one thousand rubles for the use of Guqin Youquan every month.
Because of this, although Wei Ran didn't know what Sui Suizheng's purpose was, he was wise enough not to point fingers at the two bun-faced people's business.
"If she gives you coffee beans, why don't you just give her some of the dried mushrooms you dried?"
Wei Ran gave Lola a small reminder, and then without waiting for the other party to say anything else, he left the library with the extra expensive cup of "coffee" and walked slowly to the next door.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! When he returned to the home next door, he saw Teacher Anna sitting on the edge of the fountain pool at the door from a distance, holding a cigarette in her hand and basking in the sun.
Next to her, the dog Beria was happily lying on the ground with his legs in the air, letting the former scratch the protective hair on his chest.
Seeing Wei Ran coming from a distance, Anna immediately waved to him.
"sit"
Anna pointed to her side. After Wei Ran sat down, she pondered for a moment and then asked, "Are you free on the 1st of next month?"
"I have time," Wei Ran nodded happily.
"Since you have time, come with us to Kirov tomorrow morning. I will ask Jima to pick you up then."
Anna said, dipped the cigarette in her hand into the fountain, and then accurately flicked it into the trash can not far away.
Hearing this, Wei Ran clenched his fists subconsciously, but at the same time asked with a normal expression, "Do you need me to prepare anything in advance?"
"Just put on the decent formal suit that Dalia took you to order."
Anna crossed her legs, supported her chin with her hands, and looked sideways at Wei Ran, who was sitting next to her. She said with regret, "It's a pity that you are Chinese, and it's a pity that the Soviet Union is gone."
"What if I were a Soviet, what if the Soviet Union was still there?" Wei Ran asked, looking directly at the other person.
"If you were a Soviet, if the Soviet Union was still around, you would be the perfect successor."
After Anna finished speaking, she breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and walked to the library next door while saying thankfully, "Fortunately you are not from the Soviet Union. Fortunately, the Soviet Union is long gone."
Watching the other party leave, Wei Ran could only sigh silently, turned around and returned to the room alone, quietly climbed up to the third floor and eavesdropped.
Unfortunately, in just such a short time, the doors of the two rooms on the far left facing the sun on the third floor had been locked. It was obvious that Teacher Dalia had left just now.
Secretly heaving a sigh of relief, Wei Ran went downstairs to take a shower, returned to his room and lay on the soft bed, continuing to plan the death knell that he was about to sound.
Time flies and the next morning comes, Wei Ran is also woken up by Ji Ma's call from his sleep. When he hangs up the phone and opens the curtains, he immediately sees a car parked at the door of the yard outside the window with double flashers.
Eye-catching van.
After taking a shower as quickly as possible, Wei Ran put on the suit he only wore when he was particularly heavy.
He wore a custom-made formal suit that he would only wear on special occasions, so he hurried downstairs and opened the iron gate of the yard.
"Get in the car quickly." Ji Ma, who was in the driver's seat, immediately lowered the window and waved to him.
After bending down and getting into the car, Wei Ran also saw Maya dozing off in the passenger seat, and Gorman sitting in the back seat also dozing off.
After he sat down and closed the car door, Jima immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove straight to the airport.
"Thanks"
Gorman, who seemed to be sleeping with his eyes closed, muttered something in a low voice.
"Nothing," Wei Ran responded softly, but the latter didn't say anything more and just turned his head to the side.
After arriving at the airport in silence, Jima woke up Maya. The four of them got out of the car one after another, and walked quickly to the departure hall without even taking any luggage.
"What are we going to do this time?" Maya asked sleepily, putting her arm on Jima's shoulder, and yawned after speaking.
"I don't know either." Jima said and looked at Gorman. "We need some help," Gorman explained matter-of-factly. "There is no one more suitable than the three of you. Anyway, don't waste your time."
Hearing this, Jima and Maya didn't complain, they just yawned in unison.
"You two big celebrities, put on your masks and sunglasses," Gorman said before entering the terminal.
Hearing this, Wei Ran and Ji Ma immediately took out masks and sunglasses from their respective pockets and put them on their faces.
They took a flight that took off in the morning and rushed to Kirov in such a discreet manner. When they walked out of the airport, an inconspicuous minibus had been waiting in the open parking lot for a long time.
However, as the group of them got into the smoky carriage, Wei Ran couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He saw too many familiar people in this carriage!
Among these people are Maya's brother Thorn and Wei Ran's cheap mentor Kajik, as well as Dalia's daughter Olena and her nominal sister Olga. Of course, there are also the fathers of these two girls, who were
Medic Ivan!
In addition to these acquaintances, he also saw an unknown young man in the car. This man was wearing a sea soul shirt on his upper body and ordinary jeans on his lower body, but on his feet was a pair of desert-colored military boots.
This man was about twenty-six or seventeen years old, but he was sitting at the very back of the bus. Even though he was far enough away, Wei Ran felt a dangerous aura from him.
"Brother! Why are you here?!"
While Wei Ran was secretly observing the people in the car, Maya also spotted her brother Thorne who was sitting with Kajik.
"Two days ago, my father asked me to deliver some specialties to Uncle Kajik," Thorne said while lighting a cigarette for Kajik beside him. "Yesterday, he said he needed help with some things. I happened to have time, so I followed.
Here you go. But you, why don’t you... Hey! Ji Ma! My good brother, you are here too! Come and sit down! "
Seeing her brother focusing all his attention on Jima, Maya rolled her eyes helplessly. At the same time, she stretched out her hand with great skill and pinched a small piece of soft meat on Jima's ribs with great precision.
.
"Hey! Mr. Thorne...oh! Maya, please be gentle." Ji Ma's exaggerated grin immediately attracted the attention of most people in the car, and at the same time, it also woke up the original normal person.
Olena and Olga taking a nap together.
"It's Victor! Dad, it's Victor!"
The two sleepy-eyed girls immediately noticed Wei Ran, who was about to hide behind Jima and Maya. Ivan, who had noticed him for a long time, also gave him a warning look in advance, and then there was a mixture of kindness and surprise.
De and Wei Ran said hello insincerely.
"Victor! Come and sit!"
The two girls pointed to the empty seat behind them to greet Wei Ran, and at the same time complained in a particularly aggrieved manner, "You are too dishonest. Have you forgotten the promise you made to us?"
Seeing the two girls' ambivalent complaints not only aroused the gossipy looks of the strangers around them, but also attracted the attention of this old bastard Ivan.
With a murderous gaze, Wei Ran quickly stammered and asked, "I...what did I promise you?"
"About this time last year, you said you would call us when you were done."
The tall Olga said dissatisfiedly, "But it's been a year and none of us has received a call from you."
"Did I promise?" Cold sweat broke out on Wei Ran's forehead immediately. These words and expression were more likely to cause misunderstandings than the words just now.
"Of course you promised"
Olena immediately added, "You went to our home and promised in person in the living room that you would call us when you were done."
"Victor, when did you go to such a beautiful girl's house?"
Ji Ma, who was already sitting behind Thorne, started to add fuel to the fire with a gossipy face, "You actually did such a thing behind our Queen Inta's back. It's really shocking..."
"That's enough, you"
Wei Ran glared at Ji Ma and sat down next to him, keeping at least two meters away from the two girls and Ivan who was about to eat people. He explained with a desire to survive, "I remembered, you
You're asking me to help you investigate the wooden box that seems to be from the defense of Leningrad and the accordion inside, right?"
"oh--"
Several people in the car who knew Wei Ran, except for the two girls and their father Ivan, all followed Ji Ma, who took the lead in making noises, and blatantly let out a regretful sigh of failure.
"That's exactly what happened"
Olga, who also belatedly realized that the conversation just now seemed to have caused a misunderstanding, nodded, "Also, that is a bayan, not an accordion."
"No matter what kind of piano"
Wei Ran pointed at Ji Ma beside him, "This bastard can help me testify. I really don't know anything about music, so I'm sorry, I really can't help you much."
"My daughter doesn't need your help either."
Ivan, who finally got the chance, said proudly, "I have helped them investigate the real owner of that instrument."
"Really?" Wei Ran asked in surprise.
The tall Olga rolled her eyes helplessly, "After my father's investigation, the instrument is mine, and the management director of the musical instrument warehouse personally admitted that the instrument and the contents of the box are mine.
I put it in when I first visited there when I was a kid, just so that I could have the opportunity to get that damn broken box back in person when I get there."
"Mr. Ivan is really a good father who is reasonable and educated." Wei Ran pretended to give him a thumbs up, and at the same time silently spit out thick phlegm in his heart. How the hell is he investigating? Then
It's torture to extract a confession! The pipe thief Beria caught back then was probably nothing more than this!
"Okay, everyone, sit down quickly."
Chang Erpin, who came with him, said that Qianwen had already closed the door of Yuda's car, and said to the middle-aged man in charge of driving, "Let's drive.
, go to the mental hospital first, and then go to the dock."
Hearing this, the taciturn driver immediately started the car and stepped on the accelerator, driving the minibus out of the airport and headed straight for the mental hospital.
"Did you notice the person at the back of the car?" Ji Ma whispered almost into Wei Ran's ear.
"It feels very dangerous," Wei Ran responded with the same low voice. "I think so too." Ji Ma nodded in agreement, then muttered in confusion, "What are we going to do this time?"
"how could I know?"
Wei Ran responded absently, but actually he guessed something from what Gorman just said.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with the mental hospital, but when he said "go to the dock", he was probably going to Fishing Ground No. 33, which Wei Ran had been to before, the place that was privately called the "Bell Tower"!
Although he guessed the approximate destination, Wei Ran did not expect that when they arrived at the mental hospital, his cheap mentor Kajik and medical soldier Ivan were not greeted by anyone at all, so they got out of the car and walked into the yard.
.
For a moment, apart from a few young people and the driver, Gorman was the only one left in the minibus.
"Uncle Gorman, where are we going?" Olga asked curiously, obviously knowing Gorman.
"We'll find out later"
Gorman motioned to the driver to drive and said, "The one sitting at the back is Nineel. He is a very good courier. Victor, you know the rest of them, so you can introduce them."
"OK"
Wei Ran cleared his throat, "The person next to me is Jima, Jima Alakh, a movie actor..."
While he was helping with the introduction, the minibus also set off again and drove to an inconspicuous pier outside the city.
"Come with me"
Gorman greeted a group of young people to get out of the car and got into a civilian fishing boat that looked quite old.
After all the young people found a place to sit, Gorman skillfully drove the boat's engine and drove along the Vyatka River in the direction of Fishing Ground No. 33 amidst the churning noise.
"Victor, is that Nineel who always subconsciously sits behind everyone really a courier?"
On the small deck of the fishing boat, Jima lit a cigarette and asked in a low voice, "And this is the 21st century, who would use such an outdated name as Nineel?"
"Nineel should be his real name."
Wei Ran politely declined the cigarette offered by the other party, and at the same time silently added in his mind, "If nothing else, his father's name is Feishenke, and he is a brave assaulter." "Whatever."
Jima blew out a smoke ring nonchalantly and asked, "But why is Brother Thorn here too?"
"Didn't Kajik say that, he just came here by chance." Wei Ran tacitly helped the "parents" to tell their sad lies.
"so we…"
"Jima, I am not Google." Wei Ran reminded helplessly, "You have so many questions, why don't you ask Mr. Gorman?"
"Ask him?" Ji Ma curled his lips, "I would rather be a mute." "Then just be a mute."
After Wei Ran finished speaking, he changed the subject without waiting for the other party's response, "Let's not talk about this anymore. How are you preparing for your movie?"
"I was supposed to do a test shoot tomorrow."
Jima said helplessly, "Then Gorman suddenly brought us here, saying that it was to help Maya, who was participating for the first time, better integrate into the role."
"Since it's for your Maya, what complaints do you have?" Wei Ran asked.
"That's right," Ji Ma responded subconsciously.
This scumbag is hopeless... Wei Ran twitched the corner of his mouth and followed the topic just now and talked about the upcoming movie.
Almost when Jima had revealed all the plot, the shabby boat also turned along the river and entered a tributary with grass and reeds growing on both sides.
Just as Weiran expected, after driving along this quiet river with almost no boats for more than an hour, a towering building with scaly waves shining in the afternoon sun finally appeared directly in front of the boat.
Calm lake.
Even though they were some distance away, everyone on the boat could clearly see that on the other side of the lake, there was a building almost covered by grass.
"Mr. Gorman, where is this place?" Maya asked towards the driver of the boat.
"Beautiful lady, as you can see, this is a prison that has long been abandoned."
Gorman responded loudly and loudly. Maya, who originally wanted to ask something, was amused by Gorman's rare sense of humor and forgot her original doubts.
