As soon as I heard Zhuo Yi say this, I felt that my balls started to hurt for no reason.
I looked her over and asked: "Why have you contacted Shen Gongxu recently? Did he teach you to say this?"
Zhuo Yi was stunned for a moment: "No, what's wrong?"
"Then why do you have the same moral character as Mr. Shen? You don't have back pain when you stand and talk, right?"
I turned around and walked towards the sofa: "Can you please stop him and have fun with me? The two girls at home haven't figured it out yet. You deliberately think that I don't have enough trouble, right?"
Zhuo Yi rolled his eyes: "That's what I said, it's just acting and acting, and I didn't ask you to actually marry her. What are you afraid of?"
I sat back on the sofa and said, "I can't even act. Now is the time when those two are mentally disturbed. Throw them out and maybe they can use the topic to create something."
He told Zhuo Yi to put it there and rub his temples: "Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is. Then you can figure this out yourself. No matter what the process is, as long as you can achieve the goal."
"Don't worry, let's find out what happened to Zhang Qi first."
I stared at the desk not far away for a while.
After pondering for a few seconds, I asked Zhuo Yi again: "By the way, where is Bennett? What has that kid been doing recently? Has he contacted you? Is there any news?"
"No contact, but I did hear some news."
Zhuo Yi took out two coffee cups from under the coffee table and told me while tinkering: "It's much easier for him. He is the grandson of the Pope and has been in business for so many years. It is a certainty that he will be promoted to the top. It is just a formality.
It will be put on the agenda after the old pope has made millions.
Moreover, he has experts helping him, and they are more than a little bit taller than us, so there is no need for you to worry about it, just take care of the things in front of you."
"Well, as long as it goes well."
I took the cup of instant coffee handed over by Zhuo Yi and said, "When Bennett officially takes over, as long as we can put some pressure on him, it will give Sophia a little more leverage to take over.
Anyway, I think this matter is very close. Not to mention the strength of the Romanov family, these saints that Sofia knows are a big help. I don’t believe that anyone has the ability to snatch this position away."
After I finished speaking, I put the cup to my mouth and took a sip.
But vaguely, I seemed to see Zhuo Yi smiling with my peripheral vision, and that smile was quite sinister.
I asked her: "What are you looking at me with? It's so scary. Why did you poison the cup?"
"Well, I'm going to take the Qibu Changchang Powder and poison you old Bideng to death."
Zhuo Yi put another cup of brewed coffee on the coffee table: "Do you really think that Sophia is so charming and you have a good relationship with her because she is a saint? You are thinking too much."
"What do you mean?"
"It means that there is someone staying in the hotel who has a bad relationship with her. Otherwise, why don't you think she would stay with us instead of staying in a hotel?"
Another sinister smile appeared at the corner of Zhuo Yi's mouth: "I would say that Sophia is also a little scheming. Before departure, she used words to tease me overtly and covertly, meaning that I would find a chance to get rid of this Veronica."
"She is not stupid to begin with. She is a direct descendant of a large family, Mikhail's deputy in the Holy See, and she has been a saint for so many years. If she didn't have any brains, she would have been buried long ago."
I poured the cup of coffee into my stomach, then raised my head and asked Zhuoyi: "But there is one thing I don't understand. Since this Veronica has a bad relationship with Sophia, why would she agree to be with you?
Come to the Far East together to help?"
"Two reasons."
Zhuo Yi held out two fingers: "First, this order was issued directly by the Grand Council. Now that the Patriarch is gone, as a saint, she must abide by the resolution of the Grand Council.
The second reason is that this woman belongs to the Pushkin family. If she stays with me, she is an spy. She can monitor my every move at any time, so why wouldn't she do it?"
I asked Zhuo Yi jokingly: "Hey, it seems that Miss Zhuo's importance in the Orthodox Church is no less important than that of Sophia, the saint."
Zhuo Yi was really thick-skinned: "Aren't you talking nonsense? I won't be the center of attention wherever I go?"
Once she brags, I don't want to talk to her anymore.
After a few perfunctory words, the time passed by in the nonsense between the two of us.
When the hour hand pointed to eight o'clock, I couldn't sit still: "Isn't that Veronica coming?"
"Wait a minute, she lives in a hotel in the city, which is far away from here."
Zhuo Yi lowered his head and glanced at his watch: "We'll be here in half an hour. I've chartered a business jet. After dinner tonight, take a good bath and rest. Let's set off early tomorrow morning."
"I remembered it when you mentioned it."
I crossed my legs and asked Zhuo Yi: "Have you collected any information since I called you early this morning? For example, is Zhang Qi on Tianxin Island or in the hands of the ghost tribe?
Or maybe Tianxin Island has joined forces with the ghost tribe now? The most important thing is that Daniel called me to Vladivostok, but I can’t contact him now, where are they?”
After I said this, Zhuo Yi's eyelids immediately drooped.
She shook her head slowly: "I can only say that I can't answer any of your questions."
In fact, I expected her answer. After all, the time was too short, and Zhuo Yi came from St. Petersburg, which was farther than me from China to Vladivostok, so it was normal that she couldn't inquire about anything.
But what I didn't expect was that Zhuo Yi actually said to me after sitting down: "To be honest, I don't really want you to go."
"Why is this?"
"Because I always feel like there's something deceitful about it."
Zhuo Yi bit his lips lightly and seemed to be thinking about something: "You said that Daniel sent someone to find you in China and told you that Zhang Qi is being held on Tianxin Island at the moment. Then the problem is that we can't contact Daniel now.
So how to prove whether that person is his subordinate?
To take a step back, even if the vampire is really Daniel's subordinate, what kind of people are there on Tianxin Island? How can a group of ghosts easily discover their traces?
Even if I take a step back and assume that those vampires have some skills and can follow the people on Tianxin Island without being discovered, how long has it been since you returned to the country? Instead of bringing Zhang Qi back to the island, they stayed on
What is Kuye doing? Waiting for you to rescue him?
So I feel that this matter is probably a trap that has been set up a long time ago and is waiting for you to get into it, so I think you should think about it carefully before setting off?"
I have to admit that Zhuo Yi’s analysis of this passage from beginning to end makes perfect sense.
But now I can only ask him: "What if it's a bureau? Not going? Watching Zhang Qi being taken back to Tianxin Island, and then having people poke his spine behind his back for the rest of his life?"
You can't do this. After all, Zhang Qi got into it just to help me. I have to save her because of circumstances and reasons. I have no choice."
