Chapter 44 Waiting alone

"Haha, there are very few novices in the killer world, because the killers who debut are all led by someone, because there is no saying in the profession of killer that 'failure is the mother of success'. The profession of killer will not give you a proficiency process.

Failure means danger and death, so when a killer debuts, he is already a qualified killer. Just like now, I tell you, if you want to be a killer, don't you understand many things!" Old man

Just like the big bad wolf who seduced Little Red Riding Hood, he constantly tempted Zhang Yang to join the killer industry.

"I'm a student, okay? I don't want to break the law and kill people." Unfortunately, Zhang Yang was unmoved.

"Then ask a bird!" The old man was a little depressed.

"Hey, it's always good to know more. If I get rich in the future and someone kills me, I can prepare early."

"..." The old man was speechless. He put down the newspaper and lay down on the couch again, with a look of serious disappointment on his face.

"Uncle Li, it's noon. It's time to eat. I'll leave first."

"Just eat here. Hey, Uncle Li has been lonely all his life. It's not easy to find someone to talk to. Just drink some wine with me and cook some dishes next door. Remember, there must be braised beef and peanuts.

...In addition, I can pick up a bottle of Laobaigan from the small shop next to me. It's high quality and I don't have to pay for it. I'll pay the bill all at once at the end of the month..."

The old man took out a hundred-yuan bill from his body and handed it to Zhang Yang.

"Hey... Uncle Li, those three people are out." As soon as Zhang Yang stood up and took the money from the old man's hand, he saw the three people who started to enter walking out of the alley. The young man walking in front had a look on his face.

With a look of pride, the two bodyguard-looking men in suits each carried a heavy black plastic bag and paid careful attention to their surroundings. Even Zhang Yang looked at them and fell into their eyes.

"Well, it's okay, let them go." The old man didn't even look outside the door, but Zhang Yang felt that a sharp light flashed in the old man's eyes.

Zhang Yang glanced at the old man in confusion, and then at the three people who had walked out of the alley to hail a taxi. He always felt that something was going to happen, because the old man's behavior was a bit unreasonable, but Zhang Yang wanted to

For no apparent reason, Zhang Yang can be sure that these three people have nothing to do with the old man, because the old man didn't show any special behavior at all when he saw them on the first day, and it wasn't until a few days later that this palpitating intensity appeared.

Murderous intent.

It has nothing to do with the old man, but does it have something to do with the casino?

Casinos are just places for gambling, so what conflicts will occur? According to Liu Biao, the casinos are very fair, not the kind of casinos that set traps, and are somewhat similar to those international casinos in Macau. Logically speaking,

There shouldn't be any conflict. Why is the old man showing such murderous intention now?

Zhang Yang was puzzled. He shook his head and didn't bother to think about it. It had nothing to do with him. He didn't know what the casino was like. The only thing he knew was that the casino was said to have a history of nearly twenty years.

Soon, several steaming dishes were placed on the small bamboo table in the bookstore. Although Zhang Yang didn't drink, he still poured himself a glass to drink with the old man. After drinking for thirty years, the two of them talked more.

The content of the conversation was all-encompassing, and the old man was also very enthusiastic about it. He talked about the Qin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, and then from the Tang Dynasty to the present. When he talked about being happy, he also talked about the things in the world in a more exaggerated way.

One pass, which reminded Zhang Yang of Uncle Wang, the school janitor. Both of them have a common hobby: they like to brag!

"Uncle Li, don't you have any relatives?"

"No." Lao Li, who was originally very interested, suddenly became depressed when Zhang Yang asked.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Li, I didn't mean to make you unhappy." Zhang Yang immediately sensed Uncle Li's emotions and quickly apologized for the old man by pouring him wine and food.

"Haha, it's okay. That's how old people are. They like to be nostalgic and sentimental. In fact, although Uncle Li is an orphan, he still has a family and a wife..." The old man sighed and said,

"What about your...Master's wife?" Zhang Yang didn't know how to call her, but finally thought it was appropriate to call her Master's wife. Although the old man was not a master, he could feel that the old man was very kind to him. This was an indescribable feeling.

"Eighteen years ago, your wife and I received a business deal in Africa. We both rushed to Africa, knowing that the other party was already prepared. Although we completed the task in the end, your wife and I were troubled by the confusion.

Lost touch."

"Lost contact? Don't you have a mobile phone? No contact address?" Zhang Yang opened his mouth and looked incredulous. In a society with such advanced modern communications, two normal people actually lost contact. It seemed extremely strange. You know, twenty years ago,

Mobile phones have become so common that everyone has one.

"Haha, our killer's mobile phone number is a temporary surname. When we went to Africa, we had abandoned all contact tools, because those things can easily cause trouble to ourselves. Besides, we also have fixed contact information. We

We have made an appointment, no matter the success or failure of the mission, we will meet at the XX Building in City C and see you there..."

"XX Building, never heard of the XX Building in City C?" Although Zhang Yang did not grow up in City C, he still knows City C well. He has never heard of the XX Building in City C.

"Haha, it existed eighteen years ago. You see, on the commercial street less than a hundred meters away from the entrance of the alley, the XX Building was originally there. It was still the landmark building of City C at that time. After we got separated,

I waited there for two years. Two years later, the place was demolished and a large commercial plaza was built." The old man sighed again.

"...That means that even if my wife comes to City C, she can't find you?" Zhang Yang stood up and walked to the door and looked at the commercial plaza with tall buildings. He couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. He usually watched tragedies on TV.

There are so many that I don’t believe in the tragedy. I never thought that there are real examples in life.

"I think the chances of her surviving in this world are very small."

The old man had a look of vicissitudes of life. Only then did Zhang Yang really realize that this usually indifferent old man seemed extremely lonely. Presumably, he had been waiting here for countless years in the hope of reuniting with his former lover. Zhang Yang could even

Certainly, the old man chose this alley closest to the business district to open a bookstore just to wait for his wife. This is already the last old town in City C...
