When listening to Fat Wei's words, Chen Zhi once again thought of the wrinkled, dark and stubborn old man.
There are many kinds of old people. Some people will become like children when they are old. They are always willing to brag about the things they did when they were young, exaggerate and even do things that only children do.
But this is not the case for some people. Their personality when they were young will completely transition into their old age.
If they were a tough person when they were young, they will still be wise and strong even when they get older.
And among these qualities, there is also an additional sense and calmness. If you look at the appearance and psychology, the stubborn old man does not look like a person who can brag...
"Then can we still talk to him?" Chen Zhi said to Fat Wei,
"For example, let him help lead the way and find the island."
"Of course it's no problem!" Fat Wei immediately patted his chest confidently,
"You think my leadership work these years has been in vain. We men in black go to various places to wipe your butts. To put it bluntly, we are actually dealing with people, and we are all about relationships.
In just over a year, I have been able to chat with everyone from aunts in their 80s to little girls of five years old!
I had a drink tonight, and now I am good friends with Mr. Wu. He will not hesitate to ask me for anything, let's go!
Let’s not wait two days tomorrow, let’s chat with him tonight!”
"Farewell!", Chen Zhi pulled him and said,
"After all, he is almost 100 years old, so don't be frightened by him at night.
Now that things have reached this stage, it won’t be too late. Let’s talk about it in the daytime tomorrow!”
"Hi! It's okay actually," said Fat Wei, still drunk, and followed them back, boasting nonsense.
When they returned to the village, the whole building was still quiet, the researchers were all asleep, and no one noticed that they had gone out.
The old man had a stubborn character and had been sleeping alone in the warehouse on the first floor, snoring loudly and smelling of alcohol everywhere.
It seems like what Fat Wei said, this old man drank a lot at night.
The next morning, Chen Zhizheng wanted to go downstairs with Fat Wei to have a look. Unexpectedly, the first person to come to them was Ye Qiu!
Just like what Ye Qiu said to Chen Zhi on the phone, they must understand this kind of thing clearly and come here in person.
This time he only brought a female secretary, dressed lightly, and came to see Chen Zhi like an ordinary friend. He didn't bring any soldiers with him.
When the two met, Chen Zhi felt a little sad. This was the first time he met Ye Qiu after Mu He's death.
Things have changed, and the friend who introduced me at that time is no longer there.
The first time I saw Ye Qiu, I noticed that his whole aura was different.
Chen Zhi knew that he should now be responsible for all the affairs that Mu Hyuk was responsible for during his lifetime. This is a great right.
"Congratulations on the promotion!
Should I call you Minister Ye now?" Chen Zhi smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Ye Qiu's hand.
"What a joke!" Ye Qiu did not give in. He stretched out his hand to shake Chen Zhi's hand, then looked back at the secretary.
The girl was very smart and turned around and retreated, leaving an independent space for the two of them.
Chen Zhi found a bedroom on the second floor. Because Xiao Wu's family was small, that room was originally reserved for him to get married and was unoccupied all year round.
After the door was closed, it was very closed, just suitable for chatting, so the two of them sat down here.
"Long time no see. How are you lately?",
Ye Qiu's attitude towards Chen Zhi is still the same as before.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, handed one to Chen Zhi, and kept one for himself. Then he took out a lighter and lit it for Chen Zhi on his own initiative, very politely.
Chen Zhi felt that this scene was very familiar. After a while, he remembered that when he met Mu Hyuk for the first time, Mu Hyuk also lit a cigarette for him in this way.
"It's okay!" Chen Zhi said softly,
“I’m always busy with messy things, and I don’t know when the end will come.
We didn’t even go to Mu Hyuk’s funeral, so I wonder how it went?”
"It's nothing special. For people like us, everything follows the rules and regulations, so there's nothing special about it!",
Ye Qiu answered softly. For some reason, when he mentioned Mu He, his speaking speed became slower.
“He had no relatives and could not use any posthumous subsidies. He was cremated after the funeral.
Because he still had some problems at the time and couldn't explain clearly, not many people came to the funeral."
"Um!",
Chen Zhi took a heavy drag on his cigarette, was silent for a while, and then continued:
"After waiting for a while, come with me to visit Mu He's graveyard!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to watch it or not!" Ye Qiu's tone was still very slow, his voice as deep as water,
"When a person is dead, he is dead and knows nothing. Even if you go to see him, he won't know either! It's better to let him be in peace and quiet.
The path he is taking now is his own choice, and he has nothing to complain about.
Everyone has what they want to do! They also have their own meaning of living!”,
After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he flicked the cigarette on the ground with his fingers. He raised his head and looked at Chen Zhi. His eyes became much more serious at this time.
"Someone from above has already asked about the situation here!
Many of these divers are core members of the American Diving Club, and they require us to provide a reasonable explanation.
I first gave an explanation here, saying that this is a cooperative entertainment project, and first of all, it has nothing to do with us. Secondly, this kind of dangerous activity should be carried out on one's own responsibility and does not involve disputes.
But they still refused to give up, saying that this kind of thing must be seen alive and dead, otherwise it cannot be ruled out that they will viciously detain their diving talents.
So until now, there must be an explanation for this matter. After all, there are too many people involved. If an accident really occurs, it is better to see the body, even if it is torn apart.
If you say that those divers were eaten by some special creatures here, then you have to explain what special creatures there are here.
According to previous sea area reports, there are no sharks in this area along the bay.
Moreover, those diving experts have superior technical abilities and are very experienced in fighting large fish underwater.
If they were attacked by sharks and died, no one would believe it.
From my perspective, I'm not interested in the truth. As long as things are kept within reasonable limits, I'll be fine.
Therefore, if there is really something in this sea that you are afraid of being known to outsiders, you'd better find them as soon as possible and then deal with it yourself.
Then hand over the bodies of those experts to me, and I can go back and deliver..."
