Heather who counterattacked

Chapter 5 The Mercenary Seeking Death

Back at his villa, before he had time to breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the old housekeeper Frederick rushing up to meet him. While instructing the maid to untie his scarf, take off his coat and gloves, he gestured to indicate that there was urgent news.

Xi Ruier nodded imperceptibly, turned around and walked slowly to the study on the second floor.He had just put a handle on the edge of the chair, and Frey and the herbal tea specially prepared for him had arrived.He straightened up again.

The respectful and silent maid put down the teacup, hugged the tray to her chest, bowed silently and then left. The old housekeeper handed over the satellite phone while muttering: "How many times have I said that it is not good to drink coffee at night?" , This habit must be changed! I asked the kitchen to prepare a midnight snack. If you stay up late again, remember to ring the bell to let them deliver it. Don’t make your stomach go wrong..."

Xi Ruier's expression rarely changed, and he listened patiently, very sincerely: "I remember. You go to rest first."

The two pairs of blue eyes looked at each other for a moment, Frey compromised, but still with the stubbornness of the elderly: "I let Naiden stay outside the door, and I have something to tell him, young man...young man! I have already taken care of what you do No, stay safe."

Xi Ruier laughed a little, and there was a touch of nostalgia in his pupils: "I know, you don't have to worry."

The old man walked with a dignified stride, and the older he was, the more youthful he was.

Frey was only a few years younger than his grandfather. He grew up with his grandfather. He was in charge of his side since he was a child. He grew up with Cyril's mother, and later grew up with Cyril. The accident of the little master made his hair gray. The little master's hair was completely pale when his life was in danger due to an accident.It can be said that during the year that Cyril was in the hospital, fortunately with Frey's company, he was able to ignite his enthusiasm for the world and the courage to fight against fate.However, almost as soon as his front foot recovered, his grandfather on the back foot passed away.Because it died without a cause, the sudden discovery made people even more sad.

Frey was the hardest hit.If it wasn't for Leok's remaining bloodlines to take care of, he probably wouldn't be able to survive.Looking at Xi Ruier's achievements in the past few years, he finally felt a little relieved, and slowly walked out of the pain.Because his body is still strong, he still takes care of Cyril’s daily necessities as before, but after all, he is not at the age where he can run around the world with Cyril, and usually stays in France. This time, because of the proximity of Belgium, he Then came—Cyril persuaded him to take a rest several times, and he had reserved the seat in the Alpine Spa Sanatorium for many years, but he never saw Frey go there.

Anyway, no matter what kind of courageous man Cyril grows to be, or a nobleman who is finally worthy of his title and blood, in Frey's eyes, he is always the same tender and soft woman who stretched out her hand to be hugged by him with two tears in her eyes. little master.

If the only emotion that Cyril still inherits from the original version is towards Frey.

In the empty study room, he was alone.Cyril also lost the interest in sitting down, turned around and leaned against the desk, shifted her gaze to the phone, glanced at the records, then picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, put down the cup, and pressed the call button.

The screen showed that signal pairing was in progress, and he looked up at the stars and garden outside the window on the right. After waiting for a while, the connection was still not established, so he put down the phone, turned on the external voice, and finally got up and stood in front of the French window, quietly watching the distant Things, trying to calm down the sudden complicated mood.

...Is it because her shadow is too deep, or is he too idle to have anything to think about?Why the more quiet the time, the more the figure of Clauris appeared in his mind, indelible.He is torturing himself, and he doesn't know how to torture the person he misses, a poem every morning, and because of this, he repeats that encounter and journey countless times.Each time it ends up on the scene where Klauris finally salutes him and turns away.

Obviously it's just a specious love, a self-righteous expression, but it has such a self-defeating bad effect.That encounter may have hurt both sides.But why didn't he regret it?I have never regretted it at all.

The signal was connected, and after two beeps, any sound from the other side could be conveyed very clearly.Even the sound of clothes rubbing, the sound of fingers tapping the table, the sound of guns being loaded... nothing was missed.

"I will never agree!" A voice tried to stay calm but was still unspeakably excited and angry, "You are taking advantage of the fire!" He spoke quickly, "The profit sharing has been agreed in advance, and it is absolutely impossible to change it." ! And I have no right to decide these..."

"Damn it! Get it off my head! I won't take another threat from you - put the gun away! Come on, I'm on the phone - oh God!"

It seemed that the phone was picked up and pressed down on the table with both hands.After a short period of silence, the other person's sweet voice had a pity tone: "I think it's better to settle this matter first, don't you, Your Excellency the Duke, should be patient and wait for a while, huh?" His tone It's a bit weird, "I have cooperated so many times, you should know my rules very well? I must reap the corresponding price for the amount of labor I put in, no deception. Child~ old man~ no deception~"

He said the last word twice in a row, and the longer the tone dragged on, the more chilling it felt.

"You damn vampire!" Payne finally couldn't help yelling, even a person as serious and calm as him was forced to fail several times in a row, "I said I have no right to decide these! Impossible!"

"So you guys want to unilaterally tear up the agreement?" With a chuckle, his tone was strangely calm but full of threats, "Then I have to go against my will and reveal your location to that rose flower... Well, I really appreciate Don , he can be said to be the man I admire the most... But I suddenly remembered that Qiangwei is also my big client, so..."

"Damn it's you who wanted to break the agreement!!!" Payne was about to collapse.

"Huh?" The low but slightly upturned voice carried a kind of creepy mystery.It's as if a hunter is as confident as when he watches his prey fall into the trap.

There was another silent confrontation, and Payne's tone was still depressed: "Okay, okay, you win, but you have to wait until my teammates are out of danger...Damn it! You bloody vampire! We almost lost our lives All the things you won after you won, all went into your pocket!"

"That's your business." He said coldly, and the voice immediately returned to the sweet and greasy chatter, "Okay, you can contact the respected Duke, I have been bothering you for so long, I hope Your Excellency will not pursue my faux pas~"

Even though he said this, he didn't show the slightest apology, and the brisk and upturned ending sound even had a taste of pleasure and satisfaction.Moreover, it seems that he is not ready to leave until he gets his due payment back.

Payne picked up the satellite phone, took a deep breath to prepare himself mentally, and was still a little uneasy: "Your Excellency."

"What's going on." That conversation revealed too much information.So many that Cyril couldn't think of any clues.

Generally speaking, the source of income for mercenaries is the employer, and there are only two parts in the profit stratification: the organization and the self.Of course, there are not no lone walkers, but that is the exception.Although the structure is simple, it is indeed a complete chain. The organization has a huge source of tasks and shipping channels, which can almost solve all the worries of the mercenaries under it. Therefore, there is only one case where there will be an intermediary involved.That is, the mercenaries have extra task income beyond the agreement. According to the regulations, it is their legitimate property, but they are unwilling to sell through the organization, or the organization refuses to accept it. At this time, an intermediary is needed.

Employment agencies have to bear various unknown consequences, because these people have different personalities and different rules.If you meet someone who is principled, it’s good to have a good relationship. Both parties are happy, and you may be able to establish a long-term cooperation agreement; when you meet someone with an eccentric temper, you have to hold back all kinds of emergencies that may appear at any time that do not match your imagination. , although intermediaries rarely smash their own signs, they always make employers feel aggrieved like eating flies.

On this level, Wordsworth can be regarded as a man of principle.This mercenary intermediary, who has always regarded himself as a poet and scholar, has been on this road for seven or eight years, relying on his reputation for quick returns. same return.If this person came to the door, it definitely means that he has suffered a loss, and the compensation method is what he said just now, reclassifying it as profit sharing.

There is nothing wrong with this, but why does Payne insist on it?According to Cyril's understanding, there is only one possibility, if Wordsworth can get what he wants, then they will have to drink the northwest wind.The mercenary's obsession with the income he earned from his life and death is also quite terrifying.

Then why did you change your mind in the end?Something to do with Don?What is the relationship with the rose organization?

Payne thought for a long time and didn't know how to speak. After a long time, he finally said a word: "Blood diamond."

There seemed to be a flash of lightning flashing through Xi Ruier's mind, and with just this word, the messy threads were cleared up.

Rao is a little weak.Can this kind of thing be touched?He had already imagined how complicated the situation was.

The so-called blood diamonds are diamonds mined in war zones and sold to the market.According to Baidao's definition, conflict diamonds are defined as diamonds produced by governments that are recognized internationally, that is to say, by legitimate governments.It is named because the high profits and funds obtained from the sale of diamonds will be invested in armed conflicts against the government or against the spirit of the Security Council.In fact, in many places, diamonds are not goods, but equivalent to money, such as drug and arms transactions, such as long-term wars and conflicts where the economy has been basically destroyed.

"What went wrong?"

"The contract didn't state that we would be responsible for massacring the village afterwards, so the mission ran aground, and Qiangwei's people intervened in the middle, and Tang went away violently... Although the batch of diamonds is still in our hands, Qiangwei ordered us to kill us... The boss said he wanted us self resolved."

In just a few words, it revealed how tense the situation was at that time... Wait!Tang ran away?That thing will never be that simple!

"for how long?"

"One month."

Only one month?What concerns did Ulysses have?

wrong!There are tricks!It is precisely because of the tight time that the battle will be more intense.Ulysses didn't bring the organization in, because he definitely thought the gains outweighed the losses... He didn't like Tang and the others either?

Soldiers value honor more than life, and mercenaries value reputation more than life. There is not much difference between the two. If Qiangwei dares to say that she will solve these people within a month, she is extremely confident.What are they drawing?It's definitely not just because of the loss of face... There are a lot of diamonds in this batch, and the value is extremely high?Or... want to kill Tang?

If the latter, then there must be more than one rose!

Don is in danger.

"What's the situation now?"

Payne hesitated for a moment: "The last time I contacted me, Tang and Dempsey were already in Seville. They were already targeted by Qiangwei. They fought against each other when they left Egypt."

In this way, you can't stay in Spain for a long time, this kind of thing can't be hidden from the government, and I heard that the new king of Spain is touring the whole territory, and the media reports all day long...Even if it is for the safety of the royal family, it is impossible to let the conflict go on.I don't know if the power of Qiangwei's connection has the ability to borrow the government's canines. Once the pursuit is formalized, it will be very difficult to turn around.

Cyril's mind was running fast: "Let them find a way to divert to Lisbon. The Aurora is preparing to return. I will let it dock in Lisbon for a day. I will help with the pass. The rest will enter the United States and negotiate."

Payne was overjoyed immediately, and even his voice was a little trembling: "That's it! Don't they know the specific operation! Thank you very much!"

It was unbelievable for a world-class luxury ship like the Goddess of Aurora to change its scheduled route, so they would never have thought that there was such a way.However, if the manipulator is the Duke of Silver Moon, it seems that it is not too difficult to accept... The Aurora Goddess will not stop on the coast when returning, the destination is New York, and the American mercenaries are a matter of another alliance, Blood Red Cross Qiangwei is weak there, and it is easy to get into trouble. If the water in the pool is chaotic, it is not easy to fish. Who doesn't understand this truth?

"Remember to tell Tang that he still owes me."
