Chapter six hundred and fortieth one: the dove bird who chooses a tree to rest
He paced back and forth, looking towards the garden door from time to time, mumbling Jason's name.
It stands to reason that when he had a phone call with the past venerable, especially when he knew that Jing was actually the future venerable impersonating him, there was no need for him to worry. But as the saying goes, father and son are connected, the indescribable pain was felt across half the Pacific.
It still kept coming to him.
At this time, a man stumbled in at the entrance of the garden. Rauls looked at it intently. It was Pietrus, the confidant he sent to inquire about Yanjing.
"How's it going, Pete? Is there any news from Yanjing?" Rauls was very anxious.
Pietrus gasped for air and huffed and puffed for a long time before he raised his head in horror: "The patriarch is in trouble, something really happened in Yanjing."
Rolls was shocked and his face changed. Fortunately, the beard was so thick that it was not too obvious, but the trembling from the beard could still reveal his inner fear.
"What happened? Please tell me, is Jason okay?"
Pietrus wiped his lips with the back of his hand: "The shelter where Master Jason was hiding suddenly caught fire at midnight yesterday, and the whereabouts of the person in charge of the shelter, Yamamoto, are unknown."
Rauls took two steps back, and Pietrus continued: "The other shelters are well hidden and have not been exposed, so I can get the news from them. But they dare not act now. No matter whether it is the police in Yanjing
Or there are other mysterious people who are inquiring about their information. If I hadn't taken the initiative to contact them, they wouldn't even be able to contact us through the previous channels."
Rauls seemed not to have heard what Pietrus said next. Somehow, he felt more and more that the terrible premonition in his heart was about to come true.
"Chief, please make a decision. How can we safely withdraw them all? Yanjing is too dangerous now." Pietrus asked anxiously.
Rauls didn't react at all, and kept mumbling: "Jason, my good son, nothing can happen to you."
Pietrus bit his lip: "Chief, from the same source, they said that a big event happened on the coal mountain in Yanjing the night before yesterday, at the same time that the No. 1 shelter caught fire. Through our people's
Investigate, allegedly, allegedly."
Rolls recovered and shouted: "What did you say? You are still hesitant at this time."
Pietrus lowered his head: "It is said that many corpses were transported from the mountain, all of which were personal bodyguards commanded by Master Jason himself. Moreover, many of our lurking members around Yanjing also disappeared that night."
Raulers' stocky body shook violently back and forth, and his eyes widened: "The bodyguards are all dead? What about Jason, is there no news about him? And Jing? He was invited from above the God Realm.
Senior killer, is there any news about him?"
Pietrus shook his head: "It is too dangerous to pry for information now. However, according to their speculation, if Master Jason is still alive, he must have been caught. Shelter No. 1 has been destroyed. If Master Jason is still in Yanjing,
, and if you are free, it has been two days, and you will definitely go to other shelters. So, Patriarch, you'd better express your condolences."
Raules rushed to Pietrus and kicked him in the stomach. The latter was kicked far away and lay on the ground in pain, his body shrinking into a prawn.
"You are talking nonsense, my son will not die. If he is going to die, the direct line of Rothstani will be completely extinct." Rauls shouted to the sky, his beard was covered with liquid that was not sure whether it was saliva or tears.
He no longer looked at Pietrus, and shook his big head like a rattle: "This is not true, isn't there still Jing? Yes, there is also the future venerable, he will definitely be able to keep my son. The future venerable? God
Above the world? Damn it, that old man promised me that he wouldn't lie to me, but in fact Jing is not a venerable person at all, just a third-rate crappy killer!"
Although he didn't say it, Rauls was 80% sure that Jason was dead. This might be some kind of telepathy.
He ran staggeringly towards his house. He wanted to confirm one thing. When the other servants saw his crazy look, they hurriedly ran away. Those who ran slower were kicked down by him and followed.
Pietrus was so painful that he turned into a prawn.
Picrus tried hard to get up from the ground, but his stomach hurt terribly. After several attempts, he still lay on the ground.
"Why are you treating me like this? Am I not loyal enough to you? You stupid pig." Pietrus couldn't help but complain.
At this time, a big hand helped him up and said, "Don't blame the patriarch, he is just such a person, and it's not your first day working for him."
Pietrus was startled. If his words about complaining about the clan leader were spread, not only him, but also his family of seven would have to be demoted from commoners in the family to slaves.
Looking at the person who helped him up in horror, Pietrus gradually suppressed the panic in his heart.
He bowed to the visitor: "Thank you very much, President of the Senate."
Zangao, the Speaker of the Senate of the SPIDER family, has the highest power among the entire exiled family after Rauls. If Rauls is the president or prime minister of a country, then the Senate controlled by Zangao is the parliament of a country.
.
The president nominally has the highest power, but if he wants to pass important bills, he must first pass the threshold of Congress. If Congress does not agree, even if the president has agreed, the document cannot be handed over to him and he cannot sign it.
Therefore, in SPIDER, Jango's status can be said to be on par with Raulers. It is only because Raulers is the closest direct descendant of the exiled family to the old head of the family, and as a concubine, Jango's status in the family is so high.
Not as good as Rolls.
Zangao is much more handsome than a bearded man. Although he is less than 1.8 meters tall, he has a very good temperament. He is in his fifties, and he looks like he is in his early forties. He always maintains a gentleman-like look on his face.
His elegant smile makes people want to get close to him involuntarily.
He condescended to wipe the dust off Pietrus' body: "How can you speak ill of the patriarch behind his back? It would be a terrible sin for others to hear it."
It is a sin to be overheard by others, but it is a different matter if he is overheard by the Senate President. Pietrus is not stupid, he understands the meaning of these words as soon as he hears them.
Although Pietrus has a low status in the family, he has done a lot of secretive things for Rauls, so he is very aware of the subtle relationship between the patriarch and the Senate President.
He immediately knelt down on one knee and respectfully placed his right hand on his left chest. This was the most pious etiquette in the SPIDER family and a sign of complete surrender to others.
"Pete knows he was wrong. As long as the Senate President spares me this time, I will be yours." The weight of these words was extremely heavy, and Zang Gao's knowing smile said it all.
Zangao helped Pietrus up for the second time, his hands trembling slightly. He was the only one in SPIDER who understood that controlling Pietrus would be equivalent to grabbing Rolls' handle. He had already discovered that Rolls
They are doing things secretly behind the back of the Senate, but they are unable to intervene due to the lack of evidence.
On the other side, Pietrus is also considered a figure, and there is no ambiguity about whether or not to break up. He personally works for Raulers, and he also knows that the bearded man is a waste compared to Zangao. It's just Raulers' bloodline.
To be more pure, the position of clan leader must be filled by the person with the purest blood. This is the clan rule of their clan, and it can also be said to be the most orthodox clan rule of the Rothani family.
Rauls' only advantage is his son Jason, who is very capable, and Pietrus is Jason's best friend, and he knows the secrets about Jason better.
So after learning that Jason might not be able to come back, and being kicked indiscriminately by Rolls, Pietrus was ready to choose a good place to roost.
Without Jason, Raulers is alone. The Senate President will surely seize this opportunity and succeed in taking office.
Zangao and Pietrus are both smart people, and they have the same look in their eyes, so there is no need to say anything else.
"Peter, I just saw that the patriarch was acting strangely. Did something big happen?"
Since Pietrus had made up his mind, he did not hide anything and repeated the news he had received from Yanjing.
When he heard the bad news that Jason might not come back, Jango's face also showed a moment of sadness. But it was this moment of sadness that was keenly captured by Pietrus.
Pietrus had a calm expression on his face and thought to himself: "It is indeed so."
Zangao quickly put the smile back on his face: "Peter, you said the patriarch just ran back to his residence in a panic. Why?"
Pietrus looked around and made sure that he and Zangao were the only ones in the garden, then he said in a low voice: "Actually, the patriarch has a way to communicate with Master Jason through a single line. He only needs a small device. I heard the master say about this device.
It was given to their father and son by the higher-ups above the God Realm."
Zangao's smile faded, and his mind turned a few times: "Pete, you can freely enter and exit the patriarch's inner house. You can go and care about the patriarch."
"What an old fox. He speaks so carefully and without leakage." Pietrus couldn't help but feel even more grateful for his choice.
Raules ran back to his room in a panic. He was so panicked that he even forgot to close the door.
He still followed the original method, opening the wall under the famous painting and taking out a special phone from inside. Holding the phone in his left hand, he fumbled inside the hole in the wall with his right hand and took out a button-sized thing similar to a locator.
Looking at the faint red light flashing on the locator in his hand, Rolls's violently agitated heart calmed down a little.
He didn't know where he pressed, but the locator in his hand suddenly started flashing blue light quickly. At the same moment, Zhang Youbin, who was on the other side of the ocean, also saw the same blue light.
