"Have you been waiting for a long time?" The car door opened, and Tang Chao, who had left and returned, sat back in the car with a blast of air-conditioning.
"No, it's exactly ten minutes, very on time." In the back seat, Xie Wei raised her left watch and shook her head easily.
There is indeed no difference in time, but it is impossible to say how relaxed Xie Wei is. After all, the two are not from the same world. Even though she has learned from past contact records and attitude information from Zong Qing, she has
We have good confidence in the strength of the Tang Dynasty, but because we cannot understand it in depth, we will definitely still have feelings similar to worry.
In addition, there was the van diagonally in front of her. In the past ten minutes, she had hardly taken her eyes off it, for fear of being discovered by some uninvolved passers-by, which made her feel extremely excited and uneasy.
"very smooth?"
"It's necessary." Tang Chao casually put on his seat belt and looked relaxed. This is true relaxation. There is no need to elaborate on the process, and it is not necessary. This amount of exercise is probably not as good as the night running he does every night...
…
This is not a pretense. Although the Life Hunter Assassination Team has not been around for a long time, its overall strength is actually pretty good. At least its composition structure is not as expected by the Tang Dynasty before. It is also the most common in the industry. Several
A makeshift team of killers.
On the contrary, the tactical command matching and actual combat operations are quite reasonable and in place, and they vaguely have the meaning of regular special operations. If you guessed correctly, its key members should be from the special forces of a small Southeast Asian country, and they come out to form a group to make extra money after retiring. If
If it develops smoothly, in a few years, it may not be possible to form a killer group or something like that.
such a pity……
How should I put it? It’s the same sentence. In the face of absolute strength, there is no bells and whistles.
The Tang Dynasty regarded the Life Hunter assassination team as much as the latter regarded Li Kewen and the others. This was just a comparison of pure strength. If other factors are taken into consideration, such as the fact that the Tang Dynasty was in the dark from beginning to end, it was a natural first mover advantage.
Wait, then the gap between them will become even wider, leaving no room for maneuver and no possibility of a comeback.
This is the actual situation. Tang Chao didn't even use the pistol he grabbed with his bare hands. He touched it in with his bare hands and then exited. A promising assassination team disappeared silently in the industry...
Cruel? No, this is the norm in the underground world.
Of course, the Tang Dynasty would not tell Xie Wei these things, and the latter would not ask in detail.
He didn't gossip, and didn't pay attention to Ye Lian and Li Kewen, who were still confused in the abandoned shipyard. While talking, Tang Chao drove Xie Wei back the same way.
"Where were we talking about before? Oh, the topic of Xiangjiang temple culture and metaphysics and fortune telling... I think about it. The first time we met was in the back of a temple. Do you believe this?"
"That time it was a wish." After explaining, Xie Wei thought about it seriously, shook her head slowly, and said honestly: "I probably don't believe it. I rarely come into contact with these things. But there seem to be many people here in Xiangjiang who believe it. Come here this time
I have also heard a lot of relevant information...do you believe it?"
"I didn't believe it before, but now..." After a pause, the complicated expression disappeared, and Tang Chao smiled, "I can't believe it now."
This is also true. In the past, that is, in the previous life, if someone was full of murderous sins, he naturally did not believe in the so-called fate.
It's hard to say in this life. After all, we have encountered such mysterious and mysterious things as rebirth, and no matter how righteous the three views are, they will be shattered. But it is impossible to say that we believe in and follow the destiny because of this. After all, we have to calculate carefully.
Later, someone had done a lot of things to change his destiny against the will of God, and he felt a little weak in his heart, so he couldn't believe it.
Xie Wei naturally had no way of knowing such a complicated inside story, but she seemed to hear something from Tang Chao's tone, so she said thoughtfully: "If you are interested in this aspect, you can go to the Temple Street Night Market.
There is a stall there that uses birds to tell fortunes, and people say it seems to be quite accurate."
"Really..." Hearing this, Tang Chao looked at the rearview mirror with some confusion. After confirming that Xie Wei was not joking, he couldn't help but grin. Is that a stupid bird that can't even cheat money?
Is it pretty accurate? Are you kidding me... On the surface, he replied naturally, "Next time, I'll give it a try next time I have a chance."
"You want to leave Xiangjiang? Now?" Xie Wei heard the farewell meaning in the words.
"Well, it's a habit in our industry that as soon as something is done, for the sake of safety, it's best to run away in time to avoid the limelight." Tang Chao explained, "This is also a way of respecting the local official institutions."
Xie Wei nodded clearly, not too entangled. On the contrary, she tilted her head and smiled when she heard this: "Why does it sound more like a conventional game rule?"
"Ha, that's right. It's really a game, a game of cat and mouse."
Xie Wei pursed her lips and smiled: "Then you must be a strong mouse!"
Tang Chao blinked: "Actually, I have always positioned myself as a cat."
"..."
"Haha, just kidding!"
…
It was no different than when we came. We chatted all the way and sped back. The distance between the hotel and the abandoned shipyard is not that far, that’s for sure, otherwise someone wouldn’t be able to just find an excuse to slip out and do something, and there’s a possibility of being a gangster.
Well.
About a quarter of an hour later, the hotel building came into view, and gradually approached along with the traffic flow. Finally, this extra-long luxury car from the last century slowly stopped on a nearby street.
Looking at the hotel door a hundred meters away, Xie Wei took off her seat belt, took a breath, raised her hand and tucked her hair behind her ears, raised the corners of her mouth, and was about to say goodbye with a smile, but she didn't want Tang Chao to turn around first.
Pointing to the roadside: "Would you like a drink?"
Xie Wei was slightly startled. She followed the direction shown and looked through the car window at a small shop on the side of the road with the signboard of a certain ice room. Without thinking too much, she nodded: "Okay, let's go together."
Have a drink on the roadside, chat for a few words, and then part ways. This way of saying goodbye may be more natural and not so abrupt...
This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading! Push the door and get out of the car. The rain has completely stopped by this time, and there are more pedestrians on the street. Ice room business is good, and there are a few people in front of the cashier.
Customers lined up. They walked in one after another and faced some strange looks from around them. Xie Wei, who was wearing an evening dress, had no intention of sitting in the seat next to her, so the two of them lined up at the back of the line and waited for a while.
When it was almost their turn, "...what are you talking about? I can't even hear you!"
Hearing these familiar words, Tang Chao and Xie Wei subconsciously looked up. Inside the checkout counter, there was an aunt in her forties or fifties who pouted her lips and raised her chin. Outside the checkout counter, there were a pair of young men and women who looked stunned and then a little embarrassed.
, carrying a travel bag, they should be a young couple visiting the mainland.
Needless to say, this familiar feeling of déjà vu is nothing more than the way locals look down on mainlanders. As mentioned before, the quality of some employees at Xiangjiang Service Company is really hard to describe.
After reacting, it was obvious that the young man was a little angry. Before he could get angry, the girl on the side pulled him back. Then she raised her hand and pointed at something on the menu next to the cash register, indicating that she wanted this.
It's a solution. The cashier lady didn't do anything when she saw this, but she was unforgiving. She muttered something like, "I don't even know how to talk, why are I here to play?" while turning back to tell the chef.
.
The girl took her angry boyfriend away, and the aunty waiter turned around without raising her head: "What are you drinking?"
"Excuseme?"
The aunt was obviously taken aback when she heard this. She subconsciously raised her head and looked at the tall and tall man with a puzzled expression in front of her. Her eyes paused on the latter's face that looked a bit mixed-race, and then looked at the person accompanying her who had a strange look on her face, and her appearance and temperament.
She is a decent woman. She seems to have changed her face and put on a warm attitude: "Sir, do... do you want... something to drink?" (Sir, what would you like to drink?)
"What?" The tall man looked even more confused.
"Uh, Saori..."
The aunt's expression looked a little embarrassed, and she couldn't help but look at the woman in a gorgeous evening dress again, with a look of help in her eyes. After all, compared to the upright man who looked like a mixed race, this one looked like a pure Chinese. But the latter
But she just pretended not to see it, even though she didn't know what the Mr. Killer next to her wanted to do...
No matter what, the aunt had no choice but to pick up the menu, point at it and keep making signs: "want? this... this? want..."
"Ah, yeah, yeah!" The tall and tall man nodded repeatedly as if he suddenly understood. Then when the aunt's waiter breathed a sigh of relief, he smiled politely and said politely, "Soda, thank you."
"Okay... uh?"
There was silence in the ice room for a few seconds. Then, "Pfft-hahaha..." The whole room burst into laughter, and the atmosphere inside and outside was filled with joy!
…
A few minutes later, on the roadside outside the ice room, the young couple who left happily and thanked each other were sent away. Tang Chao turned his head and looked at Xie Wei, who was standing shoulder to shoulder with the blush on her face not fading. This person who had just been in the ice room for
Keeping up the image, she patted him on the shoulder while suppressing a smile. She was holding back the smile... He raised the soda bottle and made a puzzled expression: "Cheers?"
"Haha... Cheers, cheers! Hahaha..." Xie Wei finally couldn't help it, holding Tang Chao's shoulders, leaning forward and back with laughter.
After a while, Tang Chao looked helpless: "Okay, it's almost done. If you keep laughing, the aunt inside will come out with a broom to beat people."
"Ha, haha...you...stop talking, haha..."
After a while, Xie Wei bit the straw and raised her hand to fan herself to cool down. Finally, she simply covered her face with her hands and finally stopped laughing. Then, the two of them leaned against the car door, facing the cool night breeze after the rain.
Drinking soda and chatting casually all the time.
After finishing the soda, Tang Chao threw the bottle into the trash can a few steps away and turned around: "Then, end here? I'll drive the car back. Can you just walk back to the hotel from here?"
Xie Wei held the cold soda bottle, nodded in agreement, and then asked in surprise: "Do you want to go back to return the car?"
"Of course, it's easy to borrow and return. It's not difficult to borrow again." Someone nodded matter-of-factly.
"Ha...Okay. Then, goodbye."
"goodbye."
Waved goodbye. Xie Wei took a few steps to the side and watched the tall figure walk into the car. The car started and slowly drove away from the roadside... Will we really see each other again? After going back this time, we will take over the house.
Things, such an opportunity should be gone... However, a low murmur that only she could hear,
"That's enough... This is enough, isn't it... Hey!"
Suddenly he shouted loudly, and there was a screech on the road. The old-fashioned car that almost merged into the traffic stopped forcibly. He stepped back slightly, and the door opened again. Tang Chao walked down with a blank look on his face, and stared blankly at Xie Wei who trotted up to him.
, the latter has hope in his eyes,
"I...can I ask for a farewell hug?" Just think of it as my last willfulness...
"Um, of course..." Tang Chao was stunned when he heard this, a little confused, but after he came to his senses, he opened his arms generously, and Xie Wei took a step forward, and the two of them hugged each other gently on the roadside and next to the car.
The degree was very light, of a ceremonial nature, but it was undoubtedly enough for Xie Wei. However, from an angle that Tang Chao could not see, Xie Wei subconsciously sniffed her nose, looking slightly startled...
Divide at the first touch.
"What's wrong?" Looking at Xie Wei who was stunned on the spot after hugging him, Tang Chao blinked. I don't have body odor, so why did I feel faint after hugging her?
"Nothing..." Xie Wei pursed her lips and asked casually, "By the way, you said before that you were here for business this time. You just arrived in Xiangjiang not long ago?"
Tang Chao nodded: "Yes. That's what my industry is like. I'm very busy flying around."
"oh……"
"Anything else?"
"No no."
"Are you sure? Then I'm leaving?"
"Yeah, bye."
Looking at Xie Wei, who kept waving the soda bottle and seemed to be in a much better mood instantly, Tang Chao couldn't help but be confused, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He nodded, turned around and got back in the car again, and started to drive away.
Behind, looking at the old-fashioned car that merged into the traffic and disappeared around the corner, Xie Wei looked away, and suddenly, she laughed out loud——
