Behind the scenes, the banquet continued, with melodious and soothing melody. It did not come from a record player or speaker, but was performed live by a well-known band. The textured notes reverberated in the hall, hovered in the ears, and then flowed to the guests.
In my heart, I am very particular about the banquet atmosphere.
But this did not alleviate the depression in Tang Chao's heart at all. He walked to the end of the corridor as pointed by the waiter at the door. It was just a way of saying that he wanted to leave immediately. In other words, even though he wanted to leave immediately, how could he take Tangdou and the others with him?
Leaving is a problem. Of course, you can find any reason, such as feeling unwell, but it is unwise to make any abnormal actions when the situation is unknown. There is a risk of being targeted and suspected... After all, it is still information.
Insufficient and cannot be analyzed.
The only thing that is certain is that there must be something going on here. The basis for judgment is the Molloy whom I just met, and the Hitomi Hitoshi whom I met accidentally a few days ago... That's enough, there are not so many coincidences in the world. Besides,
There was a conflict between the two some time ago, and the latter suffered a lot.
So, this is Hitomi Hitoshi’s revenge to regain his place? It’s not like that! Let’s not say that this is an atypical killer, and his murderous intention is never serious. It’s just a normal mission fight, and defeat means defeat, not everyone
The killers are all Fuuma Musashi who will never stop fighting. If they are not so angry, it seems very unprofessional... So, is it still a mission?
He rubbed his eyebrows and speculated on various possibilities. He walked around the corridor and raised his eyes. Not far away, a maintenance worker dressed as a hotel staff was hanging an internal maintenance sign on the door and picked up a tool box.
At the same time, he saw the Tang Dynasty not far away and bowed apologetically, "Sir, the water pipe here is leaking and needs repair. You can go to the bathroom at the back. I am very sorry for the inconvenience."
"Oh it's all right."
Bowing again to thank him, the maintenance man pushed the door open and walked into the bathroom. Tang Chao stepped over. When he approached the door, he could clearly hear the sound of water splashing rapidly inside. It must have been a water pipe that burst. He walked over as usual and continued walking, while his lips trembled.
Silently muttering, I can't see, I can't see, I'm blind, I can't see anything...
About five minutes later, the water splash disappeared, the bathroom door opened from the inside, and the sign was put back. A foreign man wearing a high-end custom-made suit and sunken eyes walked out, straightened his striped tie, and strode towards the banquet hall.
It almost disappeared at the corner of the corridor.
After a while, from behind, Tang Chao shook his fingertips with water stains, looking helpless...
…
In the banquet hall, "...that's it, Mr. Su, I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future." She stretched out her white palm, touched it gently, and let go. Xie Wei looked calm and calm.
The cooperation was successfully finalized, but there was nothing to celebrate. It was just about each getting what he needed. Moreover, the details of this level of cooperation had been negotiated by the people below long ago, and when they came forward, it was nothing more than
Making a statement is just a process, and there is no sense of accomplishment.
Glancing around, he saw the little girl beside him. Not far away, Li Xiaolin was chatting with a few foreign men who looked like programmers. They were also talking about Internet topics. This was not not doing their job properly. Socializing means not looking at the topic.
Yes, being able to participate well is the key... He glanced around again and asked, "Where is your brother?"
"I just went to the bathroom, now..." The little girl turned her head and looked around. There is always a strange feeling between familiar relatives. Sometimes there is a figure from the back, the back of the head, a voice coming from nowhere, or there is nothing at all.
With just a few subconscious glances, you can often accurately locate someone in the crowd. He chuckled, and his eyes fell on the place where meals and drinks were served on the side of the hall, "I'm eating there."
Xie Wei took a look, wasn't it? Mixed with a group of waiters, the man with a golden knife sat at the table in the corner of the hall, holding the knife in his right hand and the fork in his left hand. He should be eating steak. The etiquette is quite standard. Hands
There is a brown handbag not far away, brought by Li Xiaolin...
You frowned subconsciously, took a breath, and let you eat and drink in boredom... Are you really just eating and drinking?!
Well, Xie Wei is somewhat unhappy in her heart. Not to mention how rare social opportunities at this level are now, there are so many entrepreneurs or investors out there who want to get in but can't cross the threshold. Let's just say that even if it's an ordinary gathering,
You have to communicate with others and expand your life circle. Otherwise, even if you can't get involved in any topics, how about standing quietly by the side and getting familiar with the world?
This one is good, no matter how wind blows from all directions, he remains unmoved. Others talk about other people's things, and he eats theirs. It's all comfortable and comfortable. Oh, by the way, I need to look at the bag... In this kind of situation, he needs to look at the bag? What a joke!
Glancing away, Xie Wei quickly calmed down her mood swings and took Tangdou aside. Forget it, we didn't expect anything in the first place, right? Everyone has his own destiny, let him go...
At the dinner table, someone probably didn’t know that the impression he gave people would get worse. Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn’t care, and he would even applaud with pleasure. This is the effect he wants - I am dried salted fish.
, mud that can’t hold up the wall, dog meat that can’t be put on the table. Please, don’t try to save me, it’s not worth it...
Scanning the venue, the focus of the banquet was naturally the energy giant, but there were only a few people who could get close to communicate with each other. It is a normal phenomenon that wealth barriers not only appear between the poor and the rich, but also among the rich. Then
This is the difference between the local tyrants and the powerful tycoons. In addition, there are several lines of defense either overt or covert near the energy giant, and no one else can get close to them.
As for Molloy, who followed him when he entered the venue, he slipped away and was not in the venue. However, he should be monitoring the entire venue through other channels. It is understandable, if someone here really monitors that
When the energy tycoon takes action, even if he stands aside, his medicine jar will not be able to protect him at all. He might even be killed because he is too close... History has long proven that characters who play with brains and tactics are not suitable for the first time in person.
First line, that is courting death.
Oh, the foreign man who just sneaked in left a small gadget and left. He went out through the main entrance five minutes ago... He was a killer. I don't know if he was from Kitouji, but his level should be different.
There is no flaw in the low, disguise, and deception, but he is not careful enough. He pretends to be a maintenance worker who is overused, and he accidentally bumps into him...
Picking up the last piece of beef on the plate, he put it into his mouth and chewed it. It was delicious and juicy, leaving a fragrant aroma on his lips and teeth. He swallowed and said, "Thank you." He smiled and nodded to the waiter who came up to pour the red wine and then politely stepped back. He put down his silver.
Knife, the body and the chair moved back slightly, the Bohemian-style patterned tablecloth brushed over the legs, and a square object was revealed near the knees, with a bright red timer beating on it, well, about a quarter of an hour
…
No one knows how this thing got on Tang Chao's lap. You must know that not long ago it was attached to the inner wall of a decorative vase in the far corner... This is not important. What is important is that from the appearance, this is obvious.
The structure of the time bomb is quite crude and crude, with two coils, one red and one blue, so blatantly exposed.
Obviously, whether the appearance is rough or crude is not the criterion for judging the power of this thing.
The two have nothing to do with each other. Speaking of which, this red and blue coil style can be said to be classic.
But then again, someone is really big-hearted. With such a thing on his lap, he still calmly breaks down a palm-sized steak and eats it whole...and not just that!
He didn't even bother to glance at it. He picked up the red wine glass in his left hand and dropped the silver knife in his right hand. Without any hesitation, the slightly curved blade flashed away. The red line was simply cut off, and the beating number was frozen at fourteen minutes and forty.
One second.
Immediately, there was a slight beeping sound, which only lasted three times and then fell silent. When Tang Chao heard it, he was slightly startled, put down his wine glass, and the tip of his silver knife fell on the screw mouth next to the timer. He turned it lightly and screwed up the screw.
Then take out several screws in other positions. Open the outer cover and lift it up. Inside are two bottles of familiar light yellow liquid. You can smell the faint scent of roses when you get close... Then take the timer apart and there will be an extra circuit board inside.
Signaling device...naughty!
Tang Chao rolled his eyes speechlessly, seemingly meddling in his own business. He returned to his original position, thought about it, and threw it into the bag aside.
Half an hour later, after eating and drinking, Tang Chao, who was lying back in his chair to rest, was slapped on the shoulder. When he opened his eyes, Xie Wei and the other three, who were equally sociable, came back, "
Brother, you didn’t even call us when you were eating.” The little girl puffed her mouth, unhappy.
"I'm here first to help you taste which one is better. Come, try this steak, the meat is fresh and tender, highly recommended. And this caviar, the snacks are also good..."
He introduced it enthusiastically, as if he had tasted the food and had the right to speak.
Looking at the steak plate in front of her, Xie Wei squeezed out a smile and thanked her. It tasted really good, and she couldn't help but feel strange. What's this, people make the best use of it? It makes sense to eat, drink, and drink... Okay,
No matter what it was, when I came over just now, I couldn’t say what I wanted to say. I shook my head speechlessly, picked up a napkin and wiped the corners of my mouth. I looked at the few business cards next to me, which were the results of my previous communication. “Xiaolin, take mine.
Cell phone, I’ll take a note of your phone number.”
"Okay... Well, this steak tastes really good. This handsome guy has a very good taste, ha."
Putting down the knife and fork, Li Xiaolin smiled and praised her. Tang Chao responded with a smile, and then watched the other party unzip the handbag and put his hand in. It was like reaching into an ice cave in an instant, and the whole person suddenly froze...
