Chapter seven hundred and seventieth Lake's temptation
"Mo Kehua, I came here today to ask Alice a few questions."
Lake looked at Mo Kehua with a cold and arrogant face and said, but his eyes drifted to Alice.
Mo Kehua's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the Illuminati knew about Alice's teaming up with others to kill the five elders of the Illuminati?
But soon, Mo Kehua ruled out this conclusion. If the Illuminati knew about this, they would have taken direct action against the Rothschild family long ago. There is no need to wait until now. They are still beating around the bush here. He is just too sensitive.
Already.
"When Elder Lake asked, we naturally told him everything he knew. I wonder what questions Elder Lake wants to ask?"
Mo Kehua looked at the other party with a smile again and said.
"Okay, Alice, let me ask you, is Edward's disappearance related to you?"
After saying this, Lake stared at Alice, trying to see the panic expression in her eyes.
However, Lake was disappointed. Alice's eyes were always calm and without any disturbance.
But Mo Kehua was very panicked. Was he doubting Alice?
"Elder Lake, I don't know why you ask, but I can definitely answer you that Edward's disappearance has nothing to do with me." Alice said calmly.
Although Edward did not die at the hands of her and Lin Fan, but at this moment when Lake asked him like this, she naturally could not tell him the truth, otherwise she would not be able to keep anything that should be hidden.
"Really? Then why did I hear that on the night Edward disappeared, his men saw you and a young man going to the casino to find him, and that Edward also had a bet with the young man?" Lake narrowed his eyes.
He looked at Alice and asked.
"But even if this is the case, it doesn't mean that I am related to his disappearance, right?" Alice looked at Lake without fear and said.
"I can't explain, but can you tell me who the young man with you is?" Lake shrugged and said.
"He is just a friend of mine. A big shot like you doesn't need to get to know such an ordinary person, right?" Alice said with a smile.
"Then what if I really want to know?" Lake also looked at Alice with a smile.
Before coming, Mog told him that the young man with Alice might be the breakthrough in everything. For this reason, it was naturally impossible for Lake to reveal it just like that.
Alice frowned slightly, not expecting this Lake to be so difficult to deal with.
It was definitely impossible for her to tell Lake Linfan's true identity, but if she told anyone casually, they would know the truth once they checked.
If you find out that you are lying by then, you will definitely become suspicious.
what to do?
Alice had a headache, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly came.
"This person she is talking about is me!"
Everyone looked over and saw a man walking in with a group of people.
Not only was Lake strange, but Alice and Mo Kehua were also strangers and had no idea who this man was.
Mo Kehua was about to ask how the other party came in, but Alice on the side quickly grabbed his father's wrist and signaled him not to do so.
Because Lake was attracted by this man, he didn't pay attention to Alice's little movements.
"What did you say? You said you were the young man who was with Alice that day?"
Lake's eyes showed surprise as he looked the man up and down, trying to see what was different about him.
However, Lake soon became disappointed. Although the aura on this man's body was much stronger than that of ordinary people, it was too weak compared to him, like an ant.
It should be impossible for him to be Edward's opponent.
"Yes, it's me." The man looked at Lake and asked.
After hearing the man's affirmative reply, Lake looked at Alice again.
Although Alice didn't know why this strange man suddenly appeared to help her out, she still nodded.
Seeing this, the suspicion in Lake's eyes dissipated.
"Since you are Alice's friend, I don't know what to call you. Someone who can beat Edward in gambling shouldn't be some unknown person, right?"
"It's easy to say, I am Ye Xiao, now the leader of the shadows." The man said calmly.
The man who suddenly came in was naturally Lin Fan's good brother Ye Xiao.
The reason why Night Owl generously admitted his identity was to use the intimidating power of the shadow to force him back.
On the last phone call, I heard Alice say that there was movement from the Illuminati. Although it was just a casual mention, Lin Fan took it to heart. He was afraid of what might happen to Alice alone in the United States, so when the lockdown was lifted, he
I sent Night Owl over.
That's why Ye Xiao's trip to the United States came about.
Before coming, Lin Fan had told him about the grudges between himself and the Illuminati. Seeing that Lin Fan had long been an enemy of the Illuminati, Ye Xiao was shocked but not afraid. He still came to the United States for his brothers without hesitation.
After Nite Owl arrived in the United States, he didn't show up in a hurry. Instead, he kept observing the situation secretly. Until today when he saw Lake coming to question Alice, Nite Owl hurriedly came to the rescue.
"The leader of Shadow, the Shadow of the largest mercenary organization in the world?"
Lake looked at Ye Xiao with narrowed eyes, obviously not expecting that the other party actually had such an identity.
However, although Shadow is powerful, this is the mainland of the United States after all, and the other party does not dare to mess around.
So, Lake was not very scared.
However, the breakthrough was finally gone, and it would be meaningless to ask other questions.
Alice on the side didn't know who Ye Xiao was at first, but after hearing Ye Xiao's introduction, Alice guessed what was going on. It must be Lin Fan's party.
After all, she had already investigated all the people around Lin Fan.
I couldn't help but feel a little relieved. The other party appeared too timely. Otherwise, I really don't know how to solve this situation today.
When the time comes, the trap will definitely be revealed and Lake will be aware of it.
"That's right!"
Ye Xiao generously admitted that this was the purpose of his appearance today.
Although there was an aura about this man that made him tremble, Ye Xiao still forced himself to stay calm and look at the other person's eyes.
Looking at the group of vicious people behind Ye Xiao, Lake felt that the other party was not lying.
Knowing that I might not gain anything today, I could only say something to Mo Kehua and leave with my people.
As soon as Lake left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you. Did Duan Fei ask you to come?" Alice asked.
"Yes, the boss is afraid that Miss Alice will get into trouble, so he sent me here first. However, he needs to go elsewhere because of something, so he can't come with me for the time being. But Miss Alice doesn't have to worry,
This time I called all the manpower from the North American branch to come over, and the other party will have to think twice before making a move." Ye Xiao said.
