As the car stopped, Anthony and Soult got out of the car quietly. Anthony already understood the truth of the matter, but Soult, he was too young to understand what these contents meant.
Only Tanguy and Mikkelsen were left in the car. He reached out and took the cigarette case from Mikkelson's hand, lit a cigarette for himself skillfully, and took a deep breath.
After the tobacco worth 50,000 federal dollars was burned, it was breathed into his lungs, which made Tang Ji cough lightly. This weird stimulation not only did not give him the faint illusion of nicotine, but instead seemed to have been swallowed.
A sip of snow water cooled my entire lungs.
"What the hell is the tree of life?" Tang Ji looked at the cigarette in his hand. He could even feel some energy moistening his lungs little by little, repairing the damage accumulated over the years.
"As you heard, it is a magical tree that can cure many diseases." Mikkelsen flicked the cigarette ashes: "There is only one tree deep in the Amazon jungle. It has been banned since the day it was discovered.
United Fruit Group protected it."
"Can it... solve my son's problem?" Tang Ji extinguished the flame of the cigarette butt. A trace of gray-black flame rolled in his palm, but he couldn't see it because he was wearing tactical gloves.
These people used this plant to make tobacco leaves, and the suppressed anger in their hearts kept boiling, but they were eventually put out one by one by Tang Ji.
He needs the power of capital to compete with players, but capital may not need him. The relationship between supply and demand is obvious, and it is so obvious that it makes Tang Ji even more angry.
For a moment, he remembered the first future the prophet saw, in which the Seven Deadly Sins swept the world and brought the entire world back to the feudal era through personal power.
There is no capital, no big business, no so-called democracy, only the will of the tyrant lasts forever, and his rage sweeps the entire world.
That was his punishment to the entire human civilization and his lash to the world.
Now, the world also needs to be flogged, but players are more dangerous like the Sword of Damorycus hanging above their heads.
More importantly, Tang Anran was still there. Tang Ji thought of Anran's smile, and the flames gradually extinguished.
"I will send the information about the Tree of Life to Wu Qianying when I get back, and leave the professional work to professionals." Mikkelsen was very generous: "But don't put too much hope in it. That tree may have grown thousands of years ago."
It has been amazing for many years, but it is definitely not up to the level of modern medical technology."
"Otherwise, United Fruit Group will be renamed United Pharmaceutical Group now." Mikkelsen shook his head: "Consider this as my sincerity. The Joint Investigation Office needs your talents, although I don't know yet what it is.
What."
"But since the players want to deal with you, you must be useful to me." Mikkelsen looked at his watch, which was an old-fashioned mechanical watch: "My work schedule is very tight. If you need time to think about it, you can do it in three
Queen Mother, please contact me and I can provide you with a position as a trainee special correspondent."
After finishing speaking, Mikkelsen took out a simple black business card from his arms, with only his name on it: "Dial any number and say my name, and you can contact me. It's a job benefit."
."
"Aren't you worried that if we can't reach an agreement, you will be killed by me?" Tang Ji took the business card and watched Mikkelsen adjust his suit jacket, open the intact door on the other side and get out of the car.
"Why would someone want to kill me? I am not a threat to you, and I will undoubtedly bring you trouble." Mikkelsen's voice was still cold, as if he had no emotions: "And whoever kills me will definitely be in big trouble.
.”
"When you killed the original residents of the apartment, you didn't act so harmless." Tang Ji's voice came from behind Mikkelsen: "Why bother?"
"Why?" There was obvious confusion in Mikkelsen's voice: "There is no reason, just because it is convenient."
"I don't want to be noticed, and I don't want to waste time on ordinary people." Mikkelsen looked to the north, and a black Chevrolet Thracian 388 commercial vehicle drove over from a distance: "Think carefully
My invitation, it is better to join us than to fight alone."
The flames that Tang Ji had extinguished one by one before began to rekindle because of Mikkelsen's words, and balls of gray-black flames shot out of Tang Ji's body from time to time.
There was also the Tree of Life, they would rather hide that thing and roll cigarettes. Tanguy lit the expensive cigarette again behind Mikkelsen's back, this time he used his own flame.
Tang Ji's control over these flames of hatred is getting stronger day by day, and so is his connection with it, as if they can understand each other.
He could feel the endless anger in the flames, and sometimes he couldn't even tell whether it was the flames that brought him or the anger that was already in his heart.
That is anger towards players, anger towards capital, anger against everything in the world, and anger towards myself...
At the same time, Flame is gradually understanding him, understanding his patience, compromise, and responsibility. Whenever Tang Ji rings Tang Anran, even the flame of hatred will become docile, like a kitten trying to please its master.
"Hey, I'm actually an ordinary person." Tang Ji suddenly smiled, as if some kind of shackles had been released, and the gray-black flames burst out in joy, like wings waving out from Tang Ji's back, covering almost half of the sky!
Mikkelsen heard the sound of a revolver being loaded behind him. He frowned again and turned to look at Tangji. At the same time, the Thracian 388 also stopped beside him. Another Mikkelsen stepped from the driver's seat.
Went up and down.
They stood side by side, wearing the same clothes, having the same hairstyle, wearing the same watches, and even holding cigarettes at the same angle in their mouths.
"Kid, you'd better not..." The two Mikkelsens spoke simultaneously, making exactly the same sound.
but...
Boom!
Only one person can finish: "So do it."
Mikkelsen, who had just stepped out of the car, kept frowning and looked at the corpse on the ground, his eyes gradually becoming serious: "Why?"
"Why?" Tang Ji had a hearty smile on his face. If the old man could see this smile, he would definitely be very pleased. Since Angelina left, Tang Ji has never smiled like this again.
"You made the most unreasonable choice. Killing me will not do you any good." Mikkelsen picked up the body on the ground and walked to the trunk, as if planning to stuff the body into the trunk: "I'm sorry to you
It shows goodwill, but we have a common enemy, I don’t understand.”
"Because I am also an ordinary person, and when this ordinary person thinks that this world is secretly ruled by people like you, I will shoot you behind the back like just now." Tang Ji moved the muzzle of the prelude.
To Mikkelsen: "So, what are you? How many bullets do I have to prepare against you?"
"The Seven Deadly Sins? It's really troublesome..." Mikkelsen looked at the blazing flames behind Tang Ji, muttered to himself, and then said to Tang Ji: "I thought after going through so much, you would
Be more mature, forget it, I forgive your offense to me, the invitation is still valid."
"If you want to shoot, just shoot. It's not a loss to me." Mikkelsen walked back to the cab: "If you don't want to shoot, I'm leaving. You just let me
My workload has doubled, and the Ice Princess case has been handed over to you. I will send you the things I found out before."
Tanguy didn't fire again until Mikkelsen drove away with his body.
There was such a big commotion outside, so the team members in the Detective House naturally heard the commotion and quickly entered the fighting position.
"Boss, do you need help?" The saint's voice came out through the communicator, and his voice was a little excited. Although the wings of flames had dispersed now, he firmly believed that Tang Ji was the angel sent by God to the world to clear up sin.
It's just that the wings are black and gray... Well, it's understandable that the saint thinks this. After all, the world is so filthy and polluted so seriously that it needs to be washed.
"Do I need to track that car?" Ethan asked the same question, and he had already made preparations for the drone to take off.
"Leave him alone, that's my trouble." Tang Ji looked at the business car disappearing at the end of the road in the distance and looked at the business card in his hand.
...
...
Mikkelsen sent Tang Ji the information he promised to send as promised, including research information on the Tree of Life and information on the Ice Princess case.
The former is a file package with a storage capacity of more than two terabytes. Most of the information requires professional software to open. Tang Ji forwarded the file package to Wu Qianying after only reading a few video files.
The tree of life in the video is forty meters high, with no other trees growing within a kilometer radius. It has always been protected by the indigenous tribes in the Amazon jungle.
Of course, because researchers from United Fruit found that the proportion of superhumans in that tribe was much higher than average, that tribe has now been razed to the ground.
Unfortunately, so far, researchers have not been able to find any relevant substances from the Tree of Life that can enhance human awakening to become superhuman.
As for the information related to the Ice and Snow Princess, it is much simpler, but this information makes the whole thing complicated.
The reason why the Joint Investigation Office became involved in this disappearance case is that before the Ice Princess disappeared, the Military Technology Group also planned to kidnap the unlucky girl.
As a result, the professional team of military technology was exploited, which is why the Princess Diana was sent over. They suspected that the California United View Group had taken action in advance.
It is obvious that the Military Technology Group is determined to win the Snow Princess, and even does not hesitate to bring its own aircraft carrier over to put pressure. In order to prove its innocence, the United Beauty Group has no choice but to ask the Investigation Office to intervene in mediation.
In the information, Mikkelsen marked Ice Princess's ability as having great potential, and added a note in red text at the end. Naturalized people and player forces must not be allowed to obtain Ice Princess. After finding the target, clearing the target should be the top priority.
"Well, if a super human is not enough, now there are two more big companies that we can't afford to offend." Ethan looked at the information and his head got bigger: "If my old boss finds out that I participated in sabotaging their operations,
, 80% will chase me to the ends of the earth."
After finishing speaking, Ethan looked at Anthony pitifully: "Doctor, I am under too much pressure. Can you prescribe more medicine today?"
Anthony ignored him. Everyone knew that Ethan was joking, because even if this incident had not happened, the Military Technology Group would not let Ethan go. This is why he hurriedly joined the LS Road Group.
Ethan has flown almost all models of drones of the Military Technology Group and is familiar with most of them. Moreover, the brain-computer connection equipment implanted in him cannot be found on the market.
"It would have been difficult to handle this case if it had not been for the big companies." Anthony looked at the information and asked Tang Ji: "Do you think the local forces have the ability to hide the Ice and Snow Princess until now under the pressure of the United Beauty Group and the Military Technology Group?
What?"
"I'm afraid we have to go and ask in person to find out." Tang Ji narrowed his eyes. He didn't know much about local gangs or the professional kidnapping gangs, but he knew that if he didn't act quickly, those people might be killed.
It wasn't his turn to ask.
"Alia, are you there? Are you still following those kidnapping teams? I need it now." Tang Ji looked at the dark night that was approaching dawn and asked his network plug-in.
"Luckily, there are two teams that just contacted each other forty minutes ago. It seems that the local gangs are also looking for them. They are scared and are planning to find a way out to escape." Aaliya responded almost immediately:
"I will send you the best meeting place for them, but you have to hurry up, they will meet in two hours."
"No one is faster than me, and they don't have the help of a hacker as powerful as you." Tang Ji snapped his fingers, and the entire team began to take action.
Even Soult hesitated and put an ill-fitting body armor on himself. He didn't expect these people to give him a gun, but even without a gun, he was confident that he was the strongest here.
Well, maybe Tang Ji was involved. Soult glanced at the other party and became happy when he saw that Tang Ji had no intention of stopping him.
Five minutes later, the truck with a somewhat damaged rear door was driven onto the road by Martin, with Saint sitting in the passenger seat, Tanguy and Soult in the back seat.
This time, Tang Ji left Anthony at the detective's house. On the one hand, Ethan needed protection, and on the other hand, this small conflict, which was not very intense, was not worthy of keeping Anthony up all night and fighting hard.
Tomorrow at 11 o'clock at noon, the other two members of the team will also return, and by then his manpower will be even more relaxed.
If the Military Science and Technology Group has also invested manpower in secret investigation, the possibility of peaceful coexistence between them is not high. Judging from the other party's tough attitude in bringing the aircraft carrier, Tang Ji is sure that the LS Road Group cannot show off its face, and the other party is determined to win.
And if he didn't want to face off against an armed team of military technology under the air power of an entire aircraft carrier, he had better find the girl before everyone else and take her away quietly.
