Chapter 439: Taking the opportunity to make conditions
No matter what, this island is Lawrence's territory.
On his own territory, his own people have been beaten to such a moral level, Lawrence needs to come out and show his identity as a master no matter what.
But his first question after he rushed out was ignored by Cheng Yu in a contemptuous way. Even though Lawrence knew that he could never touch Cheng Yu unless he was forced to a desperate situation, he still felt very embarrassed.
Cindy saw Lawrence's embarrassment and hurriedly came to help: "Mr. Cheng, what's going on? Why did you and Peng have such a big conflict so early? Why did Peng provoke you? The gunfire just now
What happened again?"
Cindy also thought and combined these words, and basically asked all the questions in Lawrence's mind.
Moreover, as long as Cheng Yu explains the whole process clearly, all these questions will be answered at the same time.
Cheng Yu said: "Maybe it was because of the jet lag that I woke up very early, then I went for a walk and swam in the swimming pool when I came back.
Probably the sound of the water was a bit loud, which disturbed Mr. Peng from his sleep, and then he opened the window and cursed loudly.
I told him I was sorry first, but at the same time I hoped he would stay calm and not be rude.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Peng rushed out with a gun and fired without saying a word.
If I hadn't reacted quickly, seen the movement of his shoulder, sensed his intention to shoot, and dodged the bullet, I would have been the one lying here now.
After I dodged the bullet, Mr. Peng refused to let me go and fired a second shot at me.
In desperation, I could choose to fight back and clip off his arm, while letting his broken mouth rest."
Cheng Yu said it calmly, but Lawrence's expression changed drastically when he heard it.
If this is the case, then there is nothing to say about Peng Bo being beaten to death. Even if Cheng Yu really disturbed him, he would not have drawn his gun at the slightest disagreement.
What's more, Lawrence knew very well how soundproofed this room was. Cheng Yu was not frying fish in the swimming pool, but just swimming. How could he possibly disturb Peng Bo who was asleep?
Based on Lawrence's understanding of Peng Bo, it was obvious that Peng Bo had woken up, perhaps to go to the bathroom or drink water. In short, he saw Cheng Yu swimming in the yard, so he took the opportunity to attack, feeling that Cheng Yu had stripped naked.
In the swimming pool, there must be no weapons in hand.
But he could pull out a gun at any time, so Cheng Yu would not dare to challenge him.
This is Peng Bo's revenge for last night.
But who would have thought that Cheng Yu not only challenged him, but also made him do this even after he fired.
What can you say about this matter if you call me Lawrence?
Cindy's expression was very exciting, and she seemed to be praising Cheng Yu. She also hoped that Peng Bo would die. After all, it was thanks to Peng Bo that she was where she was today.
The two former mercenaries had already turned their heads away. Judging from the shrug of their shoulders, they were obviously laughing.
But their smiles were different from Cindy's. They mainly gloated. After all, although Peng Bo was a bad person, these people did not have any deep hatred for him. They were not looking forward to his death like Cindy. At best, they just saw him.
It just feels good to be taught a lesson.
At the same time, the two of them had a new understanding of Cheng Yu's strength. After all, they had heard about Cheng Yu's legend yesterday. It was not intuitive yet, just heard.
Now I can see it with my own eyes.
Even if they didn't witness the entire process, from these traces, they were basically able to restore the scene at that time.
What's more, there are surveillance rooms above and below, and anyone can directly access the surveillance video and see clearly the conflict between Cheng Yu and Peng Bo.
After thinking about it, Lawrence still ordered: "You two, carry Peng into the house quickly. Cindy, go and call the doctor..."
The three of them left one after another. Lawrence took two steps toward Cheng Yu. Just as he was about to speak, another group of people came in from outside.
They were all armed, some were Lawrence's men, and some were the security personnel.
"It's okay! Everyone, please get out!" Of course, Lawrence would not do anything to Cheng Yu just because he had a large number of people, not to mention that Cheng Yu was fully justified in this matter.
Those people didn't know what was going on and said one after another: "Mr. Bill, we just heard gunshots. What's going on?"
Lawrence snorted and said, "You guys go watch the surveillance video yourself, let's break up!"
Seeing Lawrence's arrogant words, these people looked at each other and naturally retreated.
Five minutes later, the video of Cheng Yu swimming, Peng Bo looking for trouble, then rushing out with a gun, firing two shots without hitting any of them, and finally being directly disabled by Cheng Yu, has been circulated to everyone.
eyes.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What kind of fighting power is this? Facing a gun, he would not retreat but advance, and with just a pinch, his arm bones would be broken like that?
As Andre, who was once the strongest fighter among these people, after watching the entire video, he said: "I said yesterday that maybe I could defeat this Cheng alone, but now I take it back. I believe that this
That’s not all of Cheng’s strength. If two of us fight against him, we will probably lose. Perhaps, if we want to deal with him, at least three of us will have to go into battle at the same time.”
These words can be regarded as the final conclusion of Cheng Yu's strength, and Cheng Yu himself, with the blessing of martial arts, basically made the same judgment.
Returning to the door of the small white building, Lawrence stood in front of Cheng Yu, sighed, and said: "Mr. Cheng, this matter...sigh..."
He didn't know what to say to Cheng Yu. Was he to apologize for Peng Bo? It didn't seem necessary. After all, Peng Bo didn't take advantage of anything. Instead, he almost lost everything.
This Cheng Yu was too cruel.
But blame Cheng Yu? Cheng Yu also wanted to protect himself. You, Peng Bo, fired twice. As Cheng Yu himself said, if he hadn't reacted quickly, he would be the one lying there now.
And Cheng Yu only crippled Peng Bo. What if Peng Bo shot Cheng Yu? I'm afraid Cheng Yu is already a dead man.
Lawrence knew Peng Bo too well. As long as this guy succeeded, he would never let him go.
Cheng Yu looked at Lawrence and knew that he was in a complicated mood now, so Cheng Yu said: "Lawrence, if you don't believe what I say, you can check the surveillance video. Although there is no sound in the video, you should be able to tell
What happened."
Lawrence hurriedly waved his hands and sighed: "Alan, you misunderstood, how could I not believe you? I absolutely believe that you are telling the truth, but... after all, Peng has been with me for so many years, and he also worked for me.
Through life and death, I..."
Cheng Yu smiled coldly and said, "So, are you ashamed of your decision to give up on him?"
Lawrence was speechless, unable to say anything more.
Cheng Yu added: "Although what happened today is indeed a bit disappointing, and it was indeed not my intention, but now it seems that it may not be a bad thing. I think, after a long exam at night,
Plus Peng is already like this, Lawrence, you should be able to make up your mind, right?"
Lawrence coughed twice in embarrassment. In fact, he had already made a decision in his heart. Peng Bo was already dead anyway, not to mention that the medical conditions on this small island were really limited. Even if he could be cured, I'm afraid Peng Bo would be a complete and utter failure from now on.
What a loser, I guess I won't even be able to speak clearly from now on.
Lawrence felt that he was quite righteous in choosing to give up on him at this moment.
However, because of this, Lawrence can't make a commitment to Cheng Yu right now. After all, Peng Bo is still unconscious, so it seems a bit unreasonable for you to sell him out.
"Ahem, I'd better think about it again." Lawrence coughed twice awkwardly, lowered his head and said.
Cheng Yu sneered and said, "My patience is limited, and to be honest, this island is really depressing. I will leave tomorrow. I hope Lawrence can make the final decision before I am ready to leave."
Lawrence forced a smile and said, "I'll do it as soon as possible."
The doctor came, and two of Lawrence's men helped him carry some medical equipment. Lawrence took the opportunity to follow the doctor into the small white building.
Cheng Yu suddenly felt that since Lawrence had actually made a decision, but due to some reasons, it was inconvenient for him to agree immediately, but Cheng Yu might be able to put forward some conditions to him.
"Lawrence, please stay."
Lawrence turned around and looked at Cheng Yu in confusion.
"Let the doctor go in first." Cheng Yu took two steps forward and said.
Lawrence nodded and said, "Yes, you go in and rescue people first, and I'll have a few words with Mr. Cheng."
Then, he walked towards Cheng Yu and said, "Alan, what else do you want?"
"I went to the laboratory up there with Cindy yesterday, but when we got to the door, we were stopped and told that no one could be allowed in without the password you gave me.
I also have a little understanding of the research and development projects in your laboratory building, but in order to give a more accurate assessment, this is also a decisive factor in the conditions that can be prescribed to you in the future, so I want to go up and have a look.
Originally, I planned to wait until later and let you take me there in person, but now, I guess you are very busy this day, and you will not have time for afternoon or even dinner when you are free.
So, if it’s convenient, can you give me the password and let me go up and see for myself?”
Lawrence was not surprised that Cheng Yu proposed such conditions. After all, in his view, the "British people" represented by Cheng Yu not only needed to establish good contact with the National Reform Party of Chile through Cindy, but also
He exerted a certain influence on Chilean politics, thereby expanding his importance in the British Parliament, and at the same time, he also took a fancy to this project funded by the Americans.
It is normal for them to need a deeper understanding of the project.
But letting Cheng Yu see it by himself, Lawrence was still quite hesitant.
Seeing Lawrence's hesitation, Cheng Yu added: "I'm not interested in experimental data and the like. More professional people will contact you. I just want to have a general understanding of the research and development process and the current stage, so,
It will just be a casual observation."
Lawrence thought for a while and said, "How about this, I ask Cindy to accompany you. I guess she is not willing to watch Peng with me."
Cheng Yu nodded and said, "It's up to you."
Lawrence turned around and walked inside, then suddenly thought of something, turned around and said to Cheng Yu: "Oh, by the way, that test area is indeed our core confidential area, so even if I ask Cindy to bring the password with you
If you go in together, there will definitely be at least two security personnel accompanying you. I believe Alan, you should have noticed that those security personnel are not only responsible for me, but also their real employer.
others."
Cheng Yu still nodded and agreed. He just wanted to be as familiar with the laboratory environment as possible. It would be great if he could destroy those mortars by the way.
By the way, it is also a very important task to thoroughly confirm Li Dali's room.
Even though he had learned the location of the room where Li Dali lived yesterday from Feyenoord, describing it and seeing it with his own eyes were still two different things.
After Lawrence went in, Cindy came out quickly.
She pulled Cheng Yu directly up the mountain. After passing the monitoring room above, Cindy whispered: "What did you say to Mr. Bill yesterday?"
"This has nothing to do with you, just keep pretending not to know."
"How did you make Mr. Bill's attitude towards you change so drastically? He was able to give me the password and let me take you to visit the test area. This is simply incredible."
"You don't have to worry about this. Anyway, everything I do is harmless to you."
Cindy frowned, and she began to realize that the development of the situation was somewhat beyond her expectation, but things had come to this point, and she could only bite the bullet and continue on. If she wanted to quit now, she must first
She was about to face Lawrence's anger. No matter how reluctant Lawrence was to let her go, he would definitely give her a few bullets.
"By the way, Mr. Cheng, didn't you come up last night? The last thing happened one after another, and I didn't even have the chance to ask you, did you find anything when you came up last night?"
Of course Cheng Yu would not tell her the truth and said: "I'm not an insulator. It's all a power grid. How can I get in? I only walked half a circle around the entire power grid and basically didn't find anything. Otherwise, I
Why bother with Lawrence for a long time and ask him to give you the password and take me in?"
Cindy nodded and basically believed Cheng Yu's words. After all, she would not have thought that Cheng Yu could still pass through walls.
Soon the two of them arrived at the gate at the top of the mountain. The person on duty outside the gate today was no longer Andre from yesterday, but two unfamiliar faces.
Seeing Cheng Yu, the two people seemed more polite than the people Cheng Yu met just now.
"Mr. Cheng, Miss Cindy, why are you here?"
"I want to take Mr. Cheng in to take a look." Cindy walked towards the two people.
The two men looked at each other in embarrassment, then looked at Cheng Yu and said, "Mr. Cheng, it's not that we don't want to give you face. Just because you beat up Peng just now, it can be regarded as a relief for us.
Normally we should agree to all your requests. But this is the only thing we really can’t discuss."
The other person also nodded and said: "If you are really curious, why don't you just look at the door. In fact, this is not allowed, but the boss and Mr. Bill should not embarrass us for this level of peeping."
Cheng Yu smiled and said, "I don't want to embarrass you. Ms. Cindy came with Mr. Bill's password."
Cindy raised her head and puffed out her huge chest and said, "That's right, who wants you to buy face? I have the password!"
The two of them were stunned for a moment, then laughed: "There is a password, could you have told me earlier?"
Cindy took a step forward and looked back at Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu consciously took a few steps back, turned around, and looked at the road down the mountain.
Cindy then whispered the password to the two people. As soon as the two people heard that the password was correct, they immediately opened the door.
After entering, the two people naturally sent a notification to the upper level. Soon, before Cheng Yu and Cindy reached the experimental building, two people hurried over. One of them was Andre.
.
"Mr. Cheng, Miss Cindy, good morning!" Andre waved to the two of them.
Cheng Yu and Cindy also waved and greeted each other. When Andre and Cheng Yu walked in front of them, they shook hands with each other.
"Mr. Bill also informed us that Mr. Cheng and Miss Cindy wanted to visit this place, and he said that we should try our best to meet Mr. Cheng's request. Even so, this place has the highest level of confidentiality on the entire island.
There are some things that are inconvenient to show to Mr. Cheng. Therefore, we would like to ask Mr. Cheng to be considerate of us and not make it difficult for us."
Cheng Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as you say something inconvenient, I will never make too many demands."
The four of them walked up side by side. Cheng Yu pretended to be casual and asked, "By the way, I heard that one of your brothers committed suicide last night?"
Andre's expression suddenly became a little serious, even a little sad.
He nodded and said: "Mr. Cheng also heard about it...
Alas, it's Feyenoord, Miss Cindy should also know this person.
This guy is usually a bit nervous. Last night he and I were chatting and drinking in the office. He insisted that there was someone outside the window, but when he opened it, there was no one there.
There are power grids all around, and even seabirds may not be able to fly in.
But when he saw no one outside the window, he was still worried, so he ran out to take a look..."
Speaking of this, Cindy glanced at Cheng Yu with some doubts in her eyes. She had no doubt that the person outside the window that Feyenoord said was Cheng Yu.
Of course, it was impossible for Cheng Yu to respond to this. Cindy also felt that the possibility was very low, but she just had doubts in her heart.
Andre continued: "He walked around outside and asked the brothers on patrol, but they all said they didn't find anything suspicious, and then he came back...
When he came back, he looked dull. He saw me drinking, and took a sip of the wine from my hand. After finishing the drink, he suddenly showed the gun in his hand.
I was shocked at the time. I thought he was going to do something to me. I laughed at him a few times before. Unexpectedly, he put the gun into his mouth and pulled the trigger directly.
Brains splattered all over me..."
Cheng Yu pretended to be puzzled and said: "How could a good person, even if he was a little suspicious, suddenly commit suicide?"
Andre shook his head and said, "I'm also puzzled. Although that guy often complains that he is not satisfied with his current life, he still misses the time when we used to fight with people in the rain forest.
But no one can understand that even if they knew it was impossible to return to the rainforest, they would not commit suicide..."
Another person then joined in and said: "At that time, we also wondered whether there was really something wrong and whether someone had hypnotized him. After all, the boss said that when he returned to the office, his expression looked very dull. But the blockade
I went here and checked for a long time but found nothing..."
