The sunset is doing its best to burn the skyline, but its peak period has passed, and its stamina is obviously not very strong. The blood-red halo at the edge is dimming and passing away.
Zooming in, we see Los Angeles in the dusk. The high-rise buildings are dense and undulating. From a distance, they look like Tetris, a classic game on an old handheld console. Night has not yet fallen, and most of the commercial building lights are not turned on, and the street lights are not turned on.
First, it showed its own dim light, dotted with stars, which became larger and smaller depending on the distance. The slightly drooping arc of wires and cables were connected between the lighthouses, and sometimes unknown birds landed on them, combing their feathers, and quickly returned.
fly away...
"call……"
On the third floor of a dilapidated apartment, in front of the bedroom window, stood a woman quietly. She was wearing a light close-fitting coat and light green jeans. She wore a simple and sporty style, and her tall and well-proportioned figure was clearly visible. She looked up as she flew over the roof.
The bird disappeared from sight in an instant, retracted its gaze, lowered its eyelids, and exhaled a long and gentle breath.
The tired bird still knows how to return to its nest, but how can it return if it is across the Pacific Ocean?
Such sad and sad thoughts are not in line with the woman's usual style. On the contrary, her style of acting is to be strong and calm. But she is in a foreign country and inexplicably falls into a completely unfamiliar field. Occasionally, she has such helpless and negative emotions.
It's also reasonable.
I am still careless. This is not a country. I should ask Jianping to ask for a few bodyguards to accompany me... Although the effect is not very big, even if they use guns, I think it is not as complete as now.
What exactly is the problem?
Judging from the kidnapping situation in the hospital, the target seems to be Tangdou. But how could a teenage girl, who was only going abroad for the second time, offend someone and use so many gunmen?
Ralph, who was feeling unwell, looked at the kind old foreign man. What was his origin and why did he suddenly instruct his men to attack a Chinese girl he had never met before?
No reason...
The fingers resting on the window moved slowly. This was a habit she had developed since she didn't know when. Whenever she was deep in thought, especially when she was in an unsolvable dilemma, she would subconsciously rub an object in her palm.
The next moment, static electricity seemed to pop up in my fingers.
He lowered his head, and a drop of rapidly swelling blood appeared on his fingertips. He accidentally touched the tip of the butterfly brooch in his hand. He didn't pay attention, but subconsciously raised his finger. The smooth jade side of his face reflected the last few rays of red clouds in the sky.
, her hair and bangs fluttered lightly in the dry evening breeze of Los Angeles, her lips were slightly opened, biting her fingers, and sucking gently...
"Gudong."
The sound of clear swallowing sounded from inside the house, instantly breaking the unspeakable beauty of silence. Behind him, at the door of the room, Piqiu and Tangdou stood side by side. The former met Xie Wei's sight as she turned around, her rather pleasing round face trying her best
Blinking his eyes, he smiled coquettishly: "Well, I bought some tables and put them on the fast food outside... Uh, no, no, I bought some chopsticks... Anyway, you eat first, you eat first."
After finishing his confused words, Qiu Qiu hurriedly turned around and saw the doorframe in front of him. Thanks to his quick reaction, he made a mistake with his foot in time and narrowly avoided the dilemma of using his face to open the way. He walked away quickly, walking with his head lowered and using a volume that could only be heard by himself.
Repeatedly murmuring as if chanting a sutra, "See no evil, see no evil..."
"Thank you...what's wrong with him?" Xie Wei didn't even have time to say her thanks, Xie Wei looked confused.
"I don't know, maybe I'm hungry." Tangdou tilted his little head inexplicably, looking at the ball disappearing at the door, and then ignored it, "Auntie, I came out to eat."
"Well, you eat first, and I'll wash my hands and go."
After sending the little girl away, Xie Wei closed the window. With this moment, the sunset on the horizon completely disappeared, and night officially fell.
I turned around and walked to the sink in the room, washed my bloody fingers, and poured water over my face. I raised my head and looked at the face dripping with water in the mirror. My eyes gradually became familiar and firm. It's useless to think about it. I just need to protect it.
Just jelly beans... pick up a towel and dry it.
He put the butterfly brooch on the side of the table back into his wallet. After thinking about it, he took it out and put it into his pocket. He didn't think too much about it. Important things must be kept close to his heart, right? I can't think too much about it. Here is
The United States, not Lingjiang, is across the Pacific Ocean. It is useless to expect vague and timely rescue...
Walking back to the hall, what was on the table was indeed just simple fast food, the high-calorie kind. Xie Wei didn't mind it. In the afternoon, Piqiu came to communicate with him, saying that there was a high chance that something would happen in the evening, and he needed to run and move.
, of course, this has nothing to do with them, just fill your stomach and run with it.
The same scene happened in many hidden corners near the apartment, where people were eating fast food. Fighting is not a treat, but you do need to eat.
In the corridor on the first floor, there was Chu Tangge, who was not taking a bite of his burger. He looked away from the laptop in front of him and looked at the ball coming down from the stairs. He raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Didn't you just bring the food up? So fast?
Just finished eating?"
"No, I'll come down to eat." He responded casually, and Ball took out a sandwich from his pocket on the ground without ceremony, ate it in a few bites, and devoured it.
"Leave some for me... you came down just in time." Chu Dange glared angrily and moved the laptop screen to the side, "They say you have a quick mind. This is the final defense layout. You
See if there are any obvious flaws."
The ball is not polite, and there is no need to be polite about this kind of thing. He is the person who is most familiar with the terrain on the field, and the completed defense plan has adopted many of his suggestions. He rubbed his hands and stared at the surrounding terrain map on the screen.
It was marked with various secret symbols, and he nodded slightly.
"That's pretty much it. We have too few manpower and the area we can control is limited. It's better to focus on the nearby area... Now, it depends on which direction the opponent will attack."
"Which direction do you think it is?"
"If I were the opponent's commander, I would directly choose to attack head-on. I have the manpower advantage. If you do anything fancy, just crush it!"
"It makes sense, I thought so too." This was not an afterthought. In fact, this is what Chu Tangge did. The focus of the defense system was the front direction. He touched his chin thoughtfully, "If this is the case, you and
The probability of the two people upstairs successfully retreating has to be increased by at least five percentage points. The surrounding terrain is complicated, and Nansong and the others will not have a problem if they delay for ten minutes, which is enough for you to escape."
Piqiu shrugged: "I hope my opponent will cooperate. Anyway, I think the hope is quite high. The gringos' brains are full of muscles, and tactics are not suitable for them..."
As soon as he finished speaking, like a prophecy, a feedback voice suddenly came from the headset, "Brother Chu, there is something strange on Oak Street. Three cars, six black SUVs, and a pickup truck turned in... Damn! They are patrolling the street, so
A big battle?!"
Oak Street is the outer street in front of the apartment. Chu Dange quickly threw away the burger, tapped on the keyboard, called up a video surveillance screen, adjusted the angle, and saw a long motorcade coming down the avenue in an extremely arrogant manner, filing around the corner.
Enter the not very wide path and drive straight this way.
It’s no wonder that the team members who reported back the news couldn’t help complaining. This battle was really like the ancient officials patrolling the streets. They were so powerful that all the vehicles and pedestrians they encountered along the way hurriedly gave way.
After approaching a distance of about three hundred meters, at a small intersection, from a bird's eye view, the convoy spread out instantly like a flower. It was obviously planned in advance. It drove into various forks and continued to approach here like a fishing net.
Chu Dange calmly switched various surveillance angles, and finally settled on the main convoy driving straight towards him. A car, a pickup truck, and two SUVs. The scale was no longer as shocking as before, but the speed of advancement was a little slower.
He was not slow and looked extremely determined, until he finally stopped when he drove into a dark alley, about 150 meters away.
This distance is almost there, and if we push further, we will enter the defensive counterattack line here. In addition, under the surveillance camera, more than ten figures emerge from the alleyway from nowhere, swaying together, blocking the front of the convoy.
"This is the territory of the sideburns... Well, they are right." He squinted at the dozen or so mixed-race youths in the surveillance screen, smacked his lips with the ball, turned around and backed away, ready to go upstairs, and said cheerfully, "Finally,
Let's start a fight, the more lively the better, help us explore the truth."
"That's terrible." Chu Tangge shook his head and expressed his disapproval. It's okay for this kind of small-time gang to frighten ordinary people and make some money on the road. Once they encounter a real fierce dragon crossing the river, they will inevitably become cowardly.
Yeah, I lost my territory without even looking back.
Press the call button, "The enemy has appeared, repeat, the enemy has...fuck!"
He suddenly exclaimed and was so frightened that Qiu Qiu, who was going up the stairs, suddenly trembled and almost pulled out his gun with his backhand. He looked at Chu Dange who was calm and composed just now in astonishment, his face almost pressed against the laptop screen and his eyes widened.
, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Attention, attention! The opponent is carrying heavy weapons, give up the first line of defense, repeat, give up the first line of defense! Shrink in and fight in the streets, fight directly in the streets -"
