“You agreed just like that?”
Green Snake’s face revealed a somewhat worried and angry expression.
“Although I haven’t come into contact with him many times, I’ve heard about him many times in the organization. He’s a heinous thug!”
” How could I not know his character? But, how can this affect our judgment?”
“In front of his absolute strength, we can only bow our heads no matter what!”
The old man sighed.
“What absolute strength!”
“Stop joking! With our logistics company’s captain Qin Yuan here, how can you say such disheartening words!”
Green Snake immediately interrupted the old man’s lament.
“You haven’t seen our captain Qin Yuan’s strength, have you?”
In that case, the old man really didn’t know the strength of the logistics company, nor had he seen them fight.
” To tell you the truth, we’ve never been at a disadvantage in our previous confrontation with Daybreak.
Green Snake said confidently.
“You haven’t seen his true strength. I’ve been here for so many years, so I understand his ability very well.”
The old man still looked down.
“Old sir, why do you have so little trust in us? We are the regular army! With the full support of the country! If we really fight with them this year, we definitely won’t be at a disadvantage!”
Qin Yuan said seriously.
“Sigh, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but I can’t take this risk anymore. I’m already old and can’t be tortured anymore. I hope you can understand me.”
Qin Yuan and Green Snake were silent. The old man indeed preferred a comfortable life. He was almost seventy years old. If he continued to struggle, it would indeed cause immeasurable consequences.
Qin Yuan pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice,
“Old sir, don’t worry. You don’t have to travel too much. I promise that I will definitely save you safely. You don’t have to deal with the matters here at all. You just have to wait here in peace.”
As he spoke, Qin Yuan revealed an extremely firm gaze.
“You want to face Dong Zhejun’s anger alone?”
” Don’t be naive. Let me tell you, he once faced an elite troop alone and was able to wipe them out.”
“Do you understand the meaning behind this?”
” With just you guys? It’s not that I look down on you, but it’s true. The chances of success are minuscule.”
” Even if there’s only a one in ten thousand chance, we won’t give up on this operation!”
Green Snake and Qin Yuan said resolutely at the same time.
At this moment, a strange light seemed to flash in the old man’s eyes.
At this moment, Long Ying walked in from outside.
His expression was not relaxed. He said in a deep voice,
“Are you done catching up? We don’t have much time left. To make a long story short, the people outside will be coming to inspect soon.”
Qin Yuan looked at the time. They had been here for about ten minutes.
“No matter what, the two of them will not give up.”
Long Ying also looked at the old man with a certain look.
“Even you believe them?”
“They only met you once.”
The old man looked at Long Ying in disbelief.
“I saw a different light in their eyes.”
” Instead of living in this dilapidated world, I choose to believe in them.”
Long Ying’s tone revealed an indescribable confidence.
Even the old man’s gaze became gentle and firm.
“If anyone else said that, I would just laugh it off. I didn’t expect that even you would say the same thing. It really surprised me.”
The old man frowned.
“Since you acknowledge them so much, I won’t say anything else.”
“You guys go ahead. I won’t have too much hope for you.”
As she spoke, she fell asleep on the bed.
The two of them could only follow Long Ying out of the room.
This time, Long Ying didn’t walk through the door that she had just entered through. Instead, she walked through a small gap to the side.
Then, he skillfully opened a very hidden door at the side.
Then, he slowly walked in.
“This is?”
Qin Yuan and Green Snake were surprised by this strange action again.
“This is the pa.s.sage to the governor, Dong Zhejun.”
Long Ying said softly.
” I’ve already opened the path to victory for you. Now, it’s up to your performance.”
Long Ying said calmly.
Qin Yuan and Green Snake hesitated for a moment before walking in.
Before he left, Qin Yuan’s expression was calm as he asked in a calm tone,
“Why are you helping us? We don’t know you at all.”
Long Ying sneered.
“Because we have a common goal. There is a saying that you should have heard before. There are no eternal enemies or friends, only eternal interests.”
With that, Long Ying closed the door.
Although Qin Yuan was a little puzzled, he could more or less understand his intentions.
Long Ying had also said that he had benefited a lot from the old man, and his goal was similar to hers.
Therefore, the two of them did have a common goal. This was completely certain.
The two of them walked in this dark and narrow pa.s.sage.
From time to time, Green Snake would let out a series of cries.
“We didn’t gain anything today. We only met the old gentleman once. Why do I feel as happy as if I won a grand prize?”
“You haven’t seen the old man for too long!”
Qin Yuan said with a smile.
“That’s the last time I saw him. The last time… I’ve forgotten when it was.”
“Anyway, it’s been at least half a year.”
“You still miss him so much. I couldn’t tell that our unyielding and tough Green Snake would also have such tender moments.”
Qin Yuan teased Green Snake while they were on their way.
“That’s right. My relationship with the old master is much closer than you think.”
” We’ve carried out countless missions before, and we’ve always returned successfully. We’ve never failed before. The organization calls us the Invincible Duo!”
At this point, Green Snake revealed a confident smile.
“Then why was he so cold to you just now?”
“The more you value someone, the more serious they are!”
Green Snake said unhappily.
“Hahaha! I’m just teasing you. I know about your relationship. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have sacrificed so much for him.”
Qin Yuan smiled.
“I knew it. You kid just likes to talk big!”
The two of them chatted casually. Although the road here was pitch black, the length of the road was simply outrageous.
The two of them walked for a few minutes, but they still couldn’t see any light. Fortunately, there was only a narrow and long pa.s.sage here. There were no other branches. Otherwise, with the visibility here, the two of them would definitely be taken a detour.
After walking for a long time, he finally heard the sound of water flowing in front of him.
Qin Yuan was a little surprised. Long Ying had mentioned Dong Zhejun’s base camp just now.
He had been there once before. It was a rather s.p.a.cious study, but why did he hear the sound of flowing water now?
The sound of flowing water did not sound like ordinary pouring water, but more like the sound of a small stream flowing. This was strange.
Obviously, this pa.s.sage did not lead to the room that Qin Yuan had been to last time.
Green Snake, who was at the side, noticed that Qin Yuan had suddenly fallen silent. He was a little puzzled and asked him what was going on.
“Didn’t you hear the sound of running water?”
“I heard it. It’s just an ordinary voice. What’s wrong?”
Green Snake said disapprovingly.
“I’m fine. I just feel that the sound of running water is a little strange. I’ve never heard it before.”
“Maybe Dong Zhejun is taking a bath? Are we leading to the ventilation duct in his bathroom?”
Green Snake said with a smile.
Qin Yuan ignored Green Snake’s joke. Instead, he continued to listen carefully to the sounds around him, trying to find a valuable trace of tracking.
Soon, as the sound of running water gradually became louder, the two of them saw a little white light slowly lighting up in front of them.
