At nine o'clock in the morning, Gu Yanxin, wearing high heels, appeared at the headquarters of Mr. Brown's company on time, holding a stack of documents in her hand. She had an important meeting today, for which she had been busy for a full week.
The bright marble floor made a clear and rhythmic sound, just like her steady heartbeat.
"Hi, miss Gu."
"Hi, you look so energetic today, dear Alia."
"Really? You are still as beautiful as usual."
"Thanks."
"Good morning, Miss Gu."
"Good morning, Mr. Black, will you go back to the company for a meeting today?"
"Yes, there is a review before the meeting." Blake said with a charming smile, holding a briefcase under his arm, "Just call me Eric."
Eric Black is a handsome American in his thirties who can speak fluent Chinese. He is a very important expert under Mr. Brown. However, the project he is responsible for is very secret. Even Gu Yanxin, who is Mr. Brown’s secretary, has no idea.
Not sure. Of course, Mr. Brown's company covers a very wide range, and Gu Yanxin has only touched a very small part of it.
"Okay, Eric, have you been busy lately?" Gu Yanxin asked with an elegant smile.
"I'm a little busy, but if you are free tonight, Miss Gu, could you please come and drink coffee with me?" Eric Black extended the invitation, with a beautiful luster flashing in his smoky gray eyes. If it were anyone else, he would definitely do it.
Fascinated, "I learned a little bit about what you asked me to go to China to investigate."
Eric Black often travels to China on business, and it happened that this time he went to City A. Gu Yan was concerned about the situation there, so he asked Black to help inquire.
"Okay, then after get off work tonight, I'll clean up the conference room, and let's go out together." Gu Yanxin remembered that before leaving, he asked his precious son to cook, and he readily agreed. It was his first meal today. As for his food, he probably won't be able to eat it, which is a pity.
"Okay." Eric Black nodded, and the two of them went about their work.
The day passed quickly, and the important meeting at six o'clock in the evening was finally over. Naturally, everyone who attended the meeting left, and colleagues also left work one after another. As the secretary in charge of this meeting, Gu Yanxin must wait until everyone left.
, to clean up the aftermath in the conference room, he stayed and started to clean up.
At half past six, the last chair was set up. She picked up her bag and was about to leave. The door of the conference room was suddenly knocked open. A man stumbled forward, covered in blood. He covered his head with his right hand.
He was holding his left arm, which seemed to be injured, and blood was constantly coming out between the fingers of his right hand.
"You..." Gu Yanxin was about to scream, but suddenly she saw this man's face clearly. She was stunned, and finally calmed down, "Eric? Why are you like this? Who attacked you?"
Should I call the police for you, huh?"
Gu Yanxin took out the phone but did not walk into Eric, more or less on guard.
"No, don't call the police. You can't... as you say in Chinese, you can't alert the snake." Eric Black closed the door, stopped Gu Yanxin, and took two steps towards her, but saw Gu Yanxin retreating cautiously.
, he could only say, "I have no ill intentions, I was just being chased by criminals, you..."
"Clang", "bang", there were some sounds from the corridor outside the conference room, as if someone was conducting a rough search. Eric's expression became very ugly, and his voice lowered, he continued: "Help me
, you are also helping yourself, otherwise, he will kill us all."
"How to do it?" Gu Yanxin no longer hesitated. She believed Eric's words, "Help me, you are helping yourself." The gunshot wound on Eric's arm meant that the other person was a gun-wielding thug. The United States
Shooting incidents are very common here. Soon, gunmen will burst into this conference room and maybe kill her easily, so the best choice is to cooperate with Eric.
"Take it, look for an opportunity." Eric said, taking out two pistols with silencers from his arms and giving one to Gu Yanxin, "I hope you have fired."
"No." Gu Yanxin shook his head, but took the gun very calmly, "But we can try. How many people are there?"
In order to save her life, she will do anything. Fanfan needs her and her mother.
"A villain." Eric Black looked solemn.
"You go to the bathroom." Gu Yanxin put the pistol in the waistband of her trousers behind her. The long windbreaker she wore could cover it. She pointed to the bathroom, "I distract his attention, and you shoot from behind."
"Okay." Eric Black didn't expect that Gu Yanxin could be so calm. Not only did he not make any noise or get entangled, he quickly understood the situation and even directed him, "Then
you……"
"Touch", the sound was very loud, and the people outside the corridor were already very close to the conference room. They probably searched every room outside, and finally returned to the conference room.
Gu Yanxin watched Eric walking towards the bathroom. She picked up a chair, walked to the door, and smashed the entire glass wall open. She looked down, and there was a lot of traffic.
The nineteenth floor is enough to kill someone.
"Bang," the door of the conference room was kicked open, and a man who was at least 1.9 meters tall came in. He was wearing a black leather jacket and black leather gloves. He looked extremely strong, wearing a pair of sunglasses and holding a pistol in his hand.
, also installed a silencer, with a cold expression.
"Ugh, uh, uh..." Gu Yanxin sat on the ground, sobbing, looking extremely frightened, huddled under the table, trembling, "Don't, don't kill me... don't... wuwuwu
…”
"Shut up, where is she?" the man asked fiercely, aiming his pistol at Gu Yanxin, as if he was going to kill her in the next second, "Say."
Gu Yanxin slowly raised her hand and pointed tremblingly at the smashed glass wall. The wind was blowing in from the glass wall. The man looked in the direction of her finger and frowned.
Yanxin's other hand slowly reached behind his back, touched the cold pistol, and held it in his hand.
"Phew", a small sound, it was the sound of a bullet passing through the silencer. Eric came out of the bathroom behind the man in black and fired, hitting the man in leather in the back. But the man did not fall down yet.
, but slowly turned around, as if his finger was about to pull the trigger.
Gu Yanxin no longer hesitated. Instead of trembling just now, she rolled to the side. Sure enough, she heard two "whoosh" sounds. She looked over and saw a bullet hole appeared on the floor where she was just now. She quickly
He raised the hand holding the pistol, faced the man, and decisively pulled the trigger.
At such a close distance, it was difficult to miss. The man in leather finally fell down. Eric came over panting heavily at the door of the bathroom and showed an appreciative smile to Gu Yanxin.
"Miss Gu, you really surprised me. That Chinese sentence is so impressive." Eric Black put the pistol back on his body. His face was still pale. His arm must have been seriously injured. "I didn't expect you, who is usually so polite.
, to have such a decisive side."
"It's just to save your life." Gu Yanxin looked at the person lying on the ground with complicated emotions, and then looked at Eric. Although he had put away the pistol, she did not relax and still looked at him, "Now, you can let
Do I have a clear idea of what is going on? Should I call the police first or call an ambulance first?"
"Don't want either." Eric said with a smile. Although his face was pale, his expression was very relaxed. He looked at Gu Yanxin carefully for a while, and then said, "I am a senior agent of the FBI, responsible for Brown Company.
Investigation involving the smuggling of firearms and ammunition.”
"Huh?" Gu Yanxin never expected this explanation, and suddenly felt like she was caught in some movie plot, "Agent? Brown Company smuggles guns? Your joke is not funny at all."
"I'm really not joking." Eric said seriously, and then shrugged his right shoulder that could still move, "But I can't prove it to you right away. I can only hope you believe me."
"Okay." Gu Yan thought for a while, stared into his smoky gray eyes, and decided to believe him, because she really couldn't imagine his reason for telling this lie. He could have killed her with just one shot.
"So, you are an undercover agent? You just sneaked into Brown Company to investigate Mr. Brown? Is this why you went to City A?"
"Yes, Mr. Brown has a partner in your Chinese city A. This place is a very important place for smuggling arms. I will go there again in three days." Eric Black said seriously, "Now, Miss Gu
, I formally invite you to come with me."
"I'm walking with you? What do you mean...?" Gu Yanxin felt confused.
"I just said, I'm going to City A to continue the investigation." Eric said with confidence, "Fortunately, you asked me to help you investigate, so I know that City A is your hometown, and you still have relatives here.
The situation with your relatives there is not good, so I guess you would be willing to go back if given the chance."
Gu Yanxin said nothing.
"I am your opportunity. I like your ability to adapt and your quick and accurate actions. I admire you. Anyway, you also know my identity, so I will report it and let you be my assistant. I will be responsible for
The investigation project also needs a Chinese woman like you." Eric spoke faster, "You don't have to worry about your identity or how to go back, the FBI will help you, as long as you assist us in our work
."
"Can I say no?" Gu Yanxin asked with squinted eyes.
"The consequences are hard to say." Eric Black said sincerely, "After all, my identity is confidential. If you know it and don't cooperate with me, you can imagine it."
"Then there is no choice, you still ask me what I am willing to do?" Gu Yanxin smiled and threw the pistol aside, "In three days, right? I will pack up and resign with Mr. Brown, but this
Whatever happens in the conference room must be handled by you."
"Of course." Eric Black smiled. He grabbed the leather-clad man lying on the ground with one hand, dragged him neatly to the broken glass wall, and kicked him down. "
You have ten minutes to leave through the back door, otherwise you need to come out and explain the problems here. I don’t think you are willing to get into this trouble."
Gu Yanxin took a deep look at Eric, turned around and trotted away.
