Vice-Officer Dounan slowly and carefully approached the door of the living room from the side to prevent his figure from being discovered by the people inside.

However, when he peeked in from the edge of the door, he could see that there was no one in the room, only the empty living room was illuminated by the white light of the night lamp.

Realizing something was wrong, the lights went out, the room fell into darkness, and the gentle pressure from his back pushed him into the living room.

what happened!

When he was sweating nervously on his forehead and nose, the middle area of ​​the living room suddenly lit up with a warm orange soft light source.

It was the flame of a steady fire.

Beneath the flames that didn't flicker at all, you can see a hand holding an old-fashioned lighter.

Naturally, in the area illuminated by the fire, there is also the figure of the owner of that hand.

Under the orange halo, it was difficult to distinguish the hair color, eye color and skin color, and one could only judge that the unknown person who was a beautiful woman was sitting on his sofa.

"Please don't get excited." The woman said suddenly, "It will be very troublesome to clean up if the fire goes off."

At the same time when his eyes were adapting to the light, Vice-Officer Dounan was already holding the pistol with both hands, and assumed the standard posture of aiming and shooting.

In other words, the woman sitting on the sofa is talking to the gun pointed at her head.

"My brains and blood will splash on the walls, ceiling and carpet, and seep into the furniture through the cracks of the sofa, and it will stink. And your wife and children will also be woken up from sleep." She He nonchalantly described the state of his possible death, "Why don't you sit down and listen to what I want to say?"

So confident that it turns the subject and the object upside down.

Oh no, this person is not a guest at all.

However, Vice Minister Dou Nan read some other meanings from the other party's eyes.

The other party sneaked into his house without knowing when, and it was impossible to be shot and killed by him without any recourse——

He lowered the muzzle of the gun without resetting the safety.

"As a prisoner who broke into a private house without permission, I will remember everything you said as a testimony." He expressed what he was listening in another way.

The woman sitting upright didn't change her posture because of this, she just glanced at Vice Minister Dounan's lowered hand.

"Please call me Beatty. I am a completely useless type from the neck down, so you don't have to be too vigilant. And it is because I have no resistance that I boldly come to visit you." She put the lighter she had been holding in her hand. On the glass table in front of the sofa, put your hands up to show that you are not carrying a weapon.

"As for my reason for coming, please forgive me for being straightforward. I hope you can lead the establishment of a new department for conjurers in this country."

Beatty's smile looked menacing in the halo cast by the steady flame.

-------------------------------------

In a windless room, the flame produced by the lighter will neither flicker nor dance.

Chizhi looked very calmly at the middle-aged man standing across from him, restraining himself while being shocked.

Ah, the hand holding the gun is still very steady, it seems that this dude needs to be upgraded a rating.

In this country, no matter what the politician's true position is, during his reign, because of the foreign policy of the entire country, he will always be very cautious when there are possible diplomatic issues, so he is actually not worried about mentioning this vest at all. Lives safe, previous acting and a bunch of bullshit blah blah blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

"You are instigating me to start a dispute for no reason." Vice Minister Dounan finally spoke.

Big surprise, it seems that he really found the right person. This kind of answer is obviously someone who knows the mess in the magic world and has thought about how to solve it.

"Dispute is an inappropriate level, but there is no reason for it - you don't want to wait for a few months." Chizhi put his open hands back on his knees and formed a pyramid shape, using his body posture Strengthen the believability of the hints in the discourse.

"Do you think that officials in this country will sacrifice the lives of their citizens because of such empty words?" It seems that the conversation has entered a comfort zone, and the other party's words have become bureaucratic.

Miss Beatty replied with a constant smile on her face.

"Or do you have a need for your own government to come forward, this one, Miss Beatty?" Vice Minister Dounan felt that he had stepped on the right spot, and even sat down on the sofa on the other side, even holding the hand he held before. The gun was also on the glass table.

Of course, the distance from the opposite side is very far.

"Actually, when I approached Your Excellency, I just tried to maximize my interests and achieve a win-win situation." Miss Beatty showed a deliberate distressed expression, "Do you lack a handy knife?"

"What do you mean?" Suddenly realizing that the focus of the other party's words was on his own individuality, Vice-Officer Dounan's expression became unkind.

"Complete kindness. I know a lot of information about you, such as the cause of your father's death. To be honest, it's not difficult to customize a perfect motive for you, but I think it's not necessary after thinking about it."

Vice-Officer Dounan's expression changed subtly. At the beginning, it wasn't the secret annoyance of being poked, but something else. It took about two seconds before it turned into the normal expression of being threatened .

Miss Beatty blinked, focusing more on the man's expression as he replied angrily.

After listening to a sentence or two of accusations of no practical significance, she continued to speak from her own words quite calmly as if she hadn't heard: "I heard that in this country there has always been a knife that is too long to fit. What is the difference between my proposal and the method of sharpening the used knife and recasting it into a short knife?"

"You are selling death!" Another high-sounding criticism.

"Selling? That's right. War is just an economic act." Chizhi replied in a pattern that fits the stereotype of American people, "but I am a pacifist, and I like to turn wars into friendship and eliminate wars." The invisible kind.”

As if shocked and angry by this shameless answer, Vice-Officer Dou Nan was speechless for a moment.

Then Miss Beatty, who had been sitting upright since the very beginning of the conversation, suddenly leaned forward and picked up the lighter on the glass table again, and even the flame shook, leaving twisted lights on the retinas of both of them. Bright marks.

"Are you angry?" The paleness on Miss Beatty's face showed a bit of terror after getting closer, and she said in a tone with words, "Then please remember your current mood and my proposal. "

In the next second, the flame of the lighter went out, and the whole room returned to darkness.

Vice-Officer Dounan first subconsciously reached out to feel for the position of his pistol, and then reacted to turn on the light in the living room.

By the time he turned on the lamp, there was no one else in the room except him.

-------------------------------------

If you close your eyes and prepare in advance, the sudden change of light and dark is not enough to completely lose the ability to see things.

With a short time after turning off the lighter, Chizhi successfully evacuated from the house of Vice Minister Dounan.

After driving the car prepared in advance directly out of this area, Chizhi stopped.

After all, Vice Minister Dounan is an old fritter who has been immersed in the power center of this country for many years. After collecting the information that Bitty can disclose, he still did not miss a bit of his opinion. On the surface, what he said is very good. Even if he set up a trap, he couldn't find any loopholes in his words.

However, Chizhi didn't plan to talk about the results of the first meeting.The person he found was the type who didn't see the rabbit and didn't scatter the eagle. He would never do something unpredictable because of his random pros and cons.

Chizhi's original goal was just to make Deputy Dounan pay more attention to the news of the magic world recently, and then a bunch of new things that the other party can accept will confirm the sentence "I don't want to wait until a few months later". Then, I guess I can have the next conversation with Vice-Officer Dounan without an appointment under the name of 'Beatty'.

After all, Xia Youjie has been relatively 'quiet' these years, and no one would have thought that he would suddenly want to make a big news about 'Hundred Ghosts at Night'.

However, Chizhi sensed another possibility during his conversation with Vice Minister Dounan this evening.

This man, when Beatty mentioned the cause of his father's death, reacted somewhat abnormally.

Chizhi didn't claim to be an expert in micro-expressions, but the setting of Bradbury's vest has some advantages in this regard, so he realized the sense of violation almost immediately at the time.

What is the reason why the first reaction of this obsessed person is not anger?

While Deputy Dounan was swearing in an official tone, Chizhi took the opportunity to think.

A possibility that he couldn't say he didn't expect at all came to mind after a moment.

At this time, is it true that Dostoevsky has already connected with Vice Minister Dounan?

It must be that there has been no formal and clear communication, but the kind of hookup that Lao Youtiao himself can realize——

Only when someone appeared in front of him with similar rhetoric recently, would Vice Minister Dounan react in this way.

Mr. Tuo's goal is naturally not in the magic world. He probably just buried a thread here and went to work on his business all over the world.

But in the eyes of Vice-Officer Dou Nan, it means that two forces have approached him in succession.

In this case, it is very difficult to say whether Vice Minister Dou Nan will pay more attention to or despise Bi Ti's proposal.From this point of view, it may be an extra good shot for Chizhi to make his appearance a little bit weird at the beginning.

For the time being, let's guess according to the favorable direction, and then one possibility that cannot be ruled out is that Vice Minister Dounan will pass the news that Beatty has found him to the other side-the two sides will ask for a price.

Then--

Chizhi played with the lighter on the driver's seat of the car, staring at the flickering flames for a long time.

Bradbury would be very transparent to Dostoevsky.he thought.

This is not an unacceptable possibility, but a hard mode in which the difficulty of one-life clearance increases and the income increases.

The mouse won't focus on the magic world in a short time, so it will just sit on the sidelines more.

Bradbury needs to pull off a show in the world of conjuring that showcases her motivations and abilities at the same time.

The performance had to be perfect enough for the audience to remember her name.
