Blade and Swift

The end of the party was very embarrassing, which was beyond the expectation of most of the dignitaries, including Yan Xichen.After all, they are all decent people. He thought it would be assassination, assassination, but he didn't think too much that the banquet hall would become a small battlefield.Especially when the opponent even brought out the Gatling cannon, they had to reopen the armory, and it even turned into a cannon confrontation.

"Why do we have to hang around in the other world if we can afford this?" Rosen spoke amidst the sound of gunfire.

"People who represent world power also evaluate the real world in this way." This is Duan Mingyi losing his temper while shooting three times at the enemies rushing up the stairs, and the corpses rolled down the stairs.

"It's true that I haven't used this guy for a long time. It's fun." Du Yachen smiled and put away the heavy weapon, and finally cleaned the hall.

Because the enemy never retreated, three of the mercenaries died and seven were wounded, and even Yan Xichen's arm was scratched by bullet holes. They had to consider retreating, taking their target to the armored vehicle prepared in advance underground.The rest of the mercenaries got into the car while taking cover.

Seeing that the other party appeared from the second floor with a Gatling cannon after all the crew got into the car, Du Yachen picked up a sniper and jumped out of the window, quickly climbing onto the roof of the car.The bullets passed by his side, and now they are all retreating. Even if the people in the car stick out their guns and set fire, they are still huge targets that are completely exposed to the enemy.Du Yachen was lying on the roof of the car at this time, Yan Xichen was frightened and yelled at Du Yachen, but the other party didn't respond.

Seeing Gatling firing over there, Du Yachen shot out at once, lying on the roof of the swaying car, motionless: "Medium."

Then without delay for a second, he turned around and got back into the carriage.Yan Xichen stepped forward and grabbed his hair, pulled him down, bit his lips viciously, and gave Du Yachen a violent kiss.

"Sweet." Du Yachen took off the golden mask on his face with a smile, and licked his lips, "Don't be too irritable, I will almost become an invincible buff under the protection of your will."

Yan Xichen laughed when he heard the words: "You are an asshole."

"Compensation." Du Yachen kissed him lightly on the lips again, and reached out to take off Yan Xichen's mask.

Both of them wore tattered dresses, full of gunpowder smoke and dust. They held cannons and ball masks in their hands, giving off a grotesque beauty that blended elegance and violence.The car dangled away from the mansion, and the atmosphere of the mercenaries became active again after completing the mission.It's just that he was still in shock, and even Duan Mingyi burst out with a few foul words.Rosen bandaged the wound neatly, and did not forget to ask about Du Yachen's condition.

Yan Xichen sat next to the protection target and the respondent, and glanced up and down at him as if looking at an object: "Is it not hurt?"

Although young politicians are in the top ranks, such scenes are probably rare. He was a little shocked: "No..."

Yan Xichen looked at the respondent again. That guy was still wearing a mask, and the other party didn't seem to intend to let the employer take it off. Hawkeye base to go.Yan Xichen shut up and said nothing more.part

Ming Yi dragged Yan Xichen to the other side, and started asking questions.Du Yachen helped Rosen bandage the wound.

It didn't take long for the politician to calm down. He got up and called Yan Xichen aside, trying not to attract the attention of most mercenaries.

"You are better than I imagined, Swift." The man said abruptly.

Yan Xichen held his gun and saluted with a smile: "That's ridiculous, sir."

Du Yachen caught a glimpse of him playing tricks in a tuxedo and couldn't help laughing with his hands wrapped in bandages.

There is not much relief on the face of the politician: "If you want, I think we can have another cooperation."

His voice is not loud, but it can float into the ears of people nearby.This time, not only Du Yachen stopped his actions, but Luo Sen and Duan Mingyi also looked over.Luo Sen said nothing, Du Yachen only looked at Yan Xichen's appearance, and Duan Mingyi's eyes showed obvious disapproval.

Perhaps because he was not used to the mercenaries staring at him with their guns in their hands, the politician whispered, "Take a step to speak."

Yan Xichen gestured towards the parking space, the car stopped slowly, and he jumped out of the car first.

Du Yachen put down the bandage and got out of the car behind him. The politician floated over and saw that Yan Xichen didn't stop him, so he took two steps outside.

Yanxi followed in his footsteps.

"I know that you are from Kiev, and you are well-known in Kiev. The reason why we came to you is not only because of your name, but also because of this. We will have other shareholders in the Kiev headquarters in the next step. If we can cooperate... "

The politician's words were interrupted by Yan Xichen's frowning expression.

He looked at Yan Xichen's displeased face, licked his dry lips, and did not intend to give up persuasion: "I know the rules of your eagle-eyed mercenaries, you only do things and don't care about things, and mercenaries can't go over the organization and have private conversations with employers." Make any deal. But I think there are exceptions to everything, otherwise Hawkeye should never have a politician."

"Let's talk about Kiev's actions. Since it is a private negotiation, I think I still have the right to know." Yan Xichen crossed his arms.

He looked quite calm, but Du Yachen could see his fluctuating emotions.

"Kiev is likely to be betrayed. Although it has nothing to do with us, you know that the current political situation affects the whole body. Whoever has the news one second earlier can prepare in advance, just in case .”

The answer given by the politician was very vague, but every word touched Yan Xichen's nerves.Kiev has been betrayed, and while the message is vague, it can mean a lot coming from a politician.

Yan Xichen remained sensitive about the Kiev matter. They had been in the watch world for so long, and whether it was Fang Shuo or the news about the tragedy, they hadn't gotten much content yet.But it's different now.He quickly glanced at Du Yachen, knowing that he also had the same thought as himself. Could what the politician said have any connection with the tragedy of the nuclear leak in Kiev?

"Let's talk about it in detail."

The politician laughed: "There is really nothing to say, you know, I shouldn't have said this to the mercenaries. We have needs, and we are willing to exchange something with you, and the mercenaries will carry out the execution without interfering. This is the best deal." safe way."

Yan Xichen was silent for a moment, then nodded to him.He didn't agree, nor did he refuse, and left a live message: "After you go back, invite Hawkeye again in your own name. Our iron law does not allow mercenaries to reach agreements with employers in private, but you have designated mercenaries right, like this time."

The receiving plane stopped sixty kilometers away.When the politician got out of the car, he nodded to Yan Xichen and didn't give him any contact information, so he could think about it for himself.He boarded one of the planes and used the rest to send the mercenaries back.

After boarding the plane, Yan Xichen looked very tired.Because the number of planes was sufficient, the four of them took a plane alone.Duan Mingyi originally thought that this arrangement was because Yan Xichen had something to say to them, about the conversation that the man called him out just now.Even Du Yachen thought so.

Yan Xichen didn't say anything, and after getting on the plane, he said that he was very tired and leaned on the seat to sleep.Du Yachen noticed that the wound on his bandaged arm had burst, so he quietly fetched gauze and scissors, squatted beside him, and prepared to bandage him again.

Yan Xichen raised one arm, put it over his eyes and turned his head, in a gesture of refusing to talk to anyone.

"Even I have to guard against it, so it's not possible." Du Yachen smiled casually seeing his appearance.He tore off a piece of gauze, spread it flat on his leg, and carefully unbuttoned Yan Xichen's shirt, exposing half of his shoulder.

Yan Xichen cooperated with him no matter what, took off half of his sleeve, and let Du Yachen untie the gauze.Because I closed my eyes, I could only feel the warm breath spraying on the wound, which was itchy and painful.

Yan Xichen snorted softly, but didn't speak, he let Du Yachen take care of his injuries, maybe he was really tired, and fell asleep in a daze.

Yan Xichen only slept for a short while, and when he woke up, he found that he hadn't landed yet.He turned his head and found that Duan Mingyi and Luo Sen were also asleep in the back seat exhaustedly. Duan Mingyi was sleeping in a stateless manner, while Luo Sen was sitting upright. If he could not hear the snoring, at first glance he would have thought he was meditating with his eyes closed. .Du Yachen sat next to him, the seat was leaned back, he was lying on his back, the magazine in his hand was folded upside down on his face, and he seemed to be sleeping too.

The wound has been bandaged and the clothes have been put on.Yan Xichen rubbed his head, turned his head to look at Du Yachen for a while, and put his head on his chest, against his chest.

He thought he was asleep, so when Du Yachen raised his arms to wrap his arms around him, Yan Xichen was startled.He heard Du Yachen's voice humming from his chest, thick and reassuring: "Is this for comfort?"

Du Yachen generally didn't call him baby in front of outsiders, Yan Xichen was a little uncomfortable, but he didn't get up, and rubbed against his chest in a funny way, like a baby.

Then I felt a stuffy laugh under my chest again.He patted him on the shoulder.

Yan Xichen leaned against his chest quietly for a while.

"You heard what he said just now. The time and place match."

Du Yachen said 'um' without interrupting him.

"If the task he mentioned is the one that I missed when I went to Somalia with you, it was the one that I thought brother Shuo would replace for me..." Yan Xichen couldn't continue.

Du Yachen patted his hand to stop, he raised his head, the magazine slid down his face, showing his rare serious expression.

He understands Yan Xichen's mood as a human being, and also understands his silence.

Cain's death, or Fang Shuo's death, made Yan Xichen immersed in torture day and night.Guilt and regret are the slow poisons that kill a person, the torture that grinds flesh with a blunt knife.

The guilt that tormented Yan Xichen day and night, besides his failure to rush back to Fang Shuo's side, also, he always believed that he should be the one who died in Kiev.

If he hadn't gone to Somalia with Du Yachen, if Fang Shuo hadn't replaced his mission because he left, the person who lay in the hospital and turned into blood, and finally buried in the ground like garbage should be him.

Those closest relatives replaced those tortures and deaths, but he couldn't go back to look at him, like betrayal, like abandonment, like absconding in fear of sin.

But now, everything they have experienced is Fang Shuo's past.That is to say, Fang Shuo knew about the existence of this mission long before Yan Xichen took over the mission when the Kiev tragedy happened.

"I can't figure it out, if this is my watch world, if I am the will of space, how can I see these things I don't know?"

"Perhaps it is because we are in the right direction." Du Yachen said.

"why?"

"You are not in Fang Shuo's will, but he is in your will." Du Yachen leaned over, rubbing his thumb against his cheek.

"Including that I am looking at the world with his eyes? Looking at his past?" Yan Xichen shook his head, "How do I know that all this is real and not something I imagined?"

"The watch world only presents the true vision of people's hearts, or what has been experienced. What you don't know, what you don't desire, will not appear in this world. This is your original will."

Yan Xichen lowered his eyes: "What we are experiencing now is what he wants me...to see?"

Du Yachen stared at him.

Yan Xichen hooked his fingers and tightened: "He is in my watch world, he is really there!"

The politician's words confirmed the possibility that Fang Shuo may not have taken over the mission for the sake of banqueting Xichen, leading to his death in Kiev, but reached some kind of agreement with the other party during a mission that had been carried out long ago.Regardless of whether Fang Shuo reached this agreement with politicians in his own name, he knew the existence of the Kiev mission in advance.

Yan Xichen's eyes turned a thousand times, with many emotions surging, he twisted Du Yachen's fingers even tighter.

"No, I'm not sure that Fang Shuo had negotiated cooperation with politicians before taking over the task for me. Hawkeye doesn't allow it."

Du Yachen said: "I guess, because Hawkeye does not allow it, and does not allow it to easily participate in political actions from a private standpoint, so Fang Shuo did not directly cooperate with politicians. However, he later offered to carry out this task for you, which shows that he did not resist, and knew that the task would pay him handsomely."

Yan Xichen said in a low voice: "He did tell me that he will have a rich reward soon, and when that happens, he will take me home to see my sister—"

Du Yachen held his face in both hands, and gave all his eyes to Yan Xichen: "Listen, he didn't die in your place! Do you understand, huh? I know this is a problem of yours."

Yan Xichen tightly grasped Du Yachen's hand, and his breath became short of breath, feeling a certain truth that was approaching for him.

"He didn't replace the torture and death for you. All of this will happen whether you left or not. It's not your fault, Swallow."

Yan Xichen closed his eyes, he heard the surroundings were so quiet, Luo Sen's snoring and Duan Mingyi's sleeping breathing had stopped at some point.

Guilt and remorse are sharp ice peaks, frozen in the depths of his heart, they are definitely not cold in a day, they are so sharp that they can stab himself.The suspected belated truth was like an ice hammer, hitting the thick ice surface, opening a crack for the ice peak.
