The people who hired me are dead
Chapter 97
The old man led Yun Xinzhuo out of the room. Although Yun Xinzhuo was preoccupied with how to get his sword, he hadn't lost his basic vigilance. He gradually noticed that the atmosphere around him was a bit strange.
The people gathered here are discussing things related to weapons. They are mainly men, aged between 25 and 40.
Men prefer weapons over women.People who are too young do not have the resources to acquire weapons through normal means.Older arms enthusiasts gravitate toward more formal gatherings.
Everything seemed reasonable and nothing unusual, but Yun Xinzhuo instinctively sensed that the danger was slowly approaching.
This feeling is not unfamiliar to Yun Xinzhuo. During thunderstorms, Yun Xinzhuo's brain keeps sending out similar warnings.When he is targeted by a sniper rifle or followed by someone, he can also vaguely perceive the danger.
Taking advantage of the time when the old man opened the door, Yun Xinzhuo looked back, those people were still standing in their original positions chatting, he could even hear two men not far away from him, discussing a new model that was released recently.
There were no traces of weapons on those people, or in this kind of place, weapons were considered the most common thing.
Yun Xinzhuo looked around and found nothing special, but he tensed up and stopped.
"I think it's time for me to leave." Yun Xinzhuo said to the old man, "I probably won't be able to find the collector Donahue here."
"Don't look anymore?" The old man turned around and looked up at Yun Xinzhuo.
The light in the room was dim, and Yun Xinzhuo couldn't see the old man's eyes clearly for a while, but his voice was slow and erratic, which gave Yun Xinzhuo a strong sense of disobedience.
Yun Xinzhuo quietly stared at the old man's face and suddenly said: "There is no need to look at other rooms."
Yun Xinzhuo paused, and continued: "I want to see that sword again, I like it very much."
The old man nodded, and he took Yun Xinzhuo back to the previous room.Yun Xinzhuo didn't put on the gloves given by the old man, he walked over and grabbed his sword, turned around and pointed straight at the old man.
"What are you doing?" The old man's eyes widened slightly, and the wrinkles on his face crowded together with his expression, making him look a little ugly.
"I have a friend who always disguises himself because of work." Yun Xinzhuo took a step forward and pressed the tip of his sword against the old man's neck. The craftsmanship is much better than yours."
The old man did not tear off his disguise, nor did he dodge his sword.He just stood there, looking at Yun Xinzhuo playfully.
Yun Xinzhuo sent the sword forward, the tip of the sword pierced the old man's skin, blood dripped from his wound and flowed into his collar.
Yun Xinzhuo couldn't help frowning, it's not difficult to kill this person, but it shouldn't be now, nor should it be here.
"You won't kill me." The old man stared straight at Yun Xinzhuo, and suddenly took a step forward.
Now is not the time to kill him, Yun Xinzhuo immediately withdrew his sword so as not to pierce him.
The old man looked at Yun Xinzhuo for a while, and then let out a heroic laugh.
"You are almost exactly the same as I imagined." The old man said with relief in his tone: "I have been waiting for you."
"I think you have found what you want." He glanced at Yun Xinzhuo appreciatively, lowered his head and slowly removed the disguise on his face, finally revealing a young African-American face.
"Hello." He tore off the silicone on the bridge of his nose, spit out the cotton in his mouth, stretched out his hand to Yun Xinzhuo and said with a smile, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Donahue, Corey Donahue."
Yun Xinzhuo waved his sword, but the man took his hand back.
Seeing Yun Xinzhuo's suspicious face, he explained with a smile: "There are quite a few people who come here to see me during this time. If I don't do something, I might not be able to wait for you to come to see me."
Yun Xinzhuo didn't believe a word he said so far.
"They say you are a white man." Yun Xinzhuo took the sword back, with a clear voice in his voice.
Obvious hostility.
"I have many disguises, and that's just one of them." The man leaned on the table, tilted his head and continued: "I think you are the most suitable person for it, and the person who entrusted it to me said, 'You need to find a real Those who are entitled to use it'."
The man paused, and he circled Yun Xinzhuo twice and continued: "I think there is no one more suitable than you to own it. When I saw the action of picking it up, there was a voice in my mind telling I, okay, it's him."
Yun Xinzhuo clenched the hilt of his sword tightly, even though the man's voice was full of sincerity, Yun Xinzhuo still didn't believe his words.
"So you are the one responsible for protecting it?" Yun Xinzhuo said sarcastically, "I never knew there would be such a magical thing in this world, so... who gave it to you?"
The man looked at Yun Xinzhuo quietly for a long time, and then said softly: "It's a servant of God."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside.
The man said with an ugly face: "The situation is not right, you be careful, I'll get the gun."
..............................
Gordon had just finished explaining the matter to Sidney when he heard the news that there was an explosion in a coffee shop in Quantico.
Fortunately, due to timely evacuation, casualties were not serious.Only one mother and daughter died unfortunately.
Reid looked up at the TV on the wall, the firefighters were still on the scene emergency rescue, and the reporter was interviewing a person.
"Hu Qi?" Reid blinked, and he said softly, "So the mother and daughter accidentally saw the shadow?"
"It seems so." Gordon deleted the email that Hu Qi sent him, leaned on his chin and said, "Is there any news from Yun Xinzhuo?"
Reid looked down at his phone and said, "Not yet."
After talking to Sidney, Gordon seemed to be in a much better mood.He looked at Rhett, and casually teased: "How does it feel for the first time?"
Rhett froze for a moment, then his face flushed instantly.He coughed lightly, and flipped through the notebook on his lap.
"It seems that you are quite satisfied with him." Gordon said jokingly.
Even the tip of Rhett's ears turned red, he said with a straight face as if nothing had happened: "He is very enthusiastic."
"I can tell." Gordon's eyes fell on Rhett's neck.
Reid subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to cover his neck, so he pulled the wound on his shoulder and grinned in pain.
"Yun Xinzhuo is indeed very suitable to be a lover, especially for those who are inexperienced." Gordon said with a hooked corner of his mouth: "And there is...you have a shirt button undone."
Rhett neither raised his hand to button his button, nor echoed Gordon's words.He pursed his lips and didn't care about Gordon's joke, it's okay if no one mentioned it, but whenever someone mentioned Yun Xinzhuo, Rhett became only thinking about Yun Xinzhuo.
"Oh my god..." Reid covered his forehead, trying to get rid of all the things about Yun Xinzhuo in his head, which seriously affected his normal thinking, even if he was still free, there was nothing he needed to deal with in time.
The name Yun Xinzhuo not only turned on Rhett's switch, but also made Sidney, who had been fidgeting, excited.
Sidney seemed to have been opened up, and said excitedly: "You guys are really discerning. I believe I won't have anyone who is more suitable as a lover than Yun Xinzhuo. Look at his figure and appearance. He alone The skill of making pastry is enough to make me fascinated, you probably haven't tasted the tiramisu he made..."
Sidney said happily, and he gestured while speaking, as if he had said all the compliments he could think of.
Sidney will always be like this. If someone asks him how Yun Xinzhuo is, he will definitely search out all his compliments to describe him.As he said before, becoming Yun Xinzhuo's friend was the most correct thing he did.
Sometimes Rhett wonders if Sidney has a crush on Yun Xinzhuo. Whenever Sidney jokes with Yun Xinzhuo and calls Yun Xinzhuo baby, Rhett will feel an inexplicable sense of crisis.
Rhett felt that he was crazy. If he wasn't crazy, how could he be jealous of another man because of such a trivial matter.
"Am I talking too much?" Sidney said for a while, noticing that the atmosphere was not right, he said hesitantly: "How about we talk about Victoria's Secret models? Like Miranda Kerr or Gissey R. Bundchen?"
"Okay then, I'm going to buy a bottle of Coke, anyone else?" Sidney stood up and said.
No one answered his words, and the atmosphere was awkward for a while, Sidney shrugged and turned to leave.
Reid looked at his somewhat lost back in silence, coughed lightly and said, "Um... coffee, thank you."
It wasn't until the sound of Sidney's footsteps disappeared that Gordon said: "When you were away, Al and Morgan chatted casually. Although Yun Xinzhuo is easy to get involved in a relationship, he is very loyal to you, so you don't have to worry about it." As for the problem of betrayal, at most he will lose the initial enthusiasm, which is also the most common situation among lovers."
Rhett groaned to avoid Gordon's gaze, and Gordon continued: "Actually, you should also be able to see that there is no feeling beyond friendship between Sidney and Yun Xinzhuo."
Rhett nodded to show that he understood, Gordon stared at Rhett and said: "So... what are you worried about, Dr. Rhett, I think Yun Xinzhuo's attitude towards you is enough to make you realize how much he depends on you .”
Rhett didn't know why he was uneasy, maybe it was because after Yun Xinzhuo's phobia improved, he was no longer clinging to Rhett as before.
Rhett had to admit that he actually liked the way Yun Xinzhuo followed him like a tail.At that time, whenever Rhett looked back.You can see Yun Xinzhuo's eyes full of dependence and love, which makes Reid very useful.
"Dr. Rhett?"
Gordon's voice pulled Rhett back from his memories, he looked up, and Gordon was looking at him seriously.
"What are you worried about?" Gordon repeated again.
The fragment of getting along with Yun Xinzhuo flashed in Reid's mind.Reid stared at the table in a daze, and Yun Xinzhuo curled up in his arms, trembling and pale, slowly appeared in front of his eyes.
He'd clutch his clothes and keep muttering his name.But Rhett can't help thinking, if it wasn't him who hugged Yun Xinzhuo at that time, would Yun Xinzhuo just curl up in someone else's arms and call someone else's name, and would he fall in love with Spencer? Rhett.
After a while, Reid closed his eyes and said softly, "I'm worried that his feelings for me are not love, but dependence."
