Chapter 167 Mr. Xu, Can You Show Me Your Palmistry?
Originally, Mr. Tang only thought that Xu Tian ignored public and private matters in order to let Bingyan accompany her, and did not want Bingyan to go abroad.
Who would have thought that something would really happen if Bingyan went there this time...
The other side.
After everyone was settled, Chen Xiaoxiao, Ah Wei and others continued to ask Bai Lu how they came up with the idea of pretending to be a shadow organization.
Bai Lu faced a dozen pairs of curious eyes around him and then spoke slowly:
"Didn't Ah Wei ask us to take Mr. Xu to leave first? When we arrived at the dock, Mr. Xu refused to board the ship."
"He refused to board the ship?"
Ah Wei was slightly startled. Didn't Xu Tian immediately choose to evacuate by himself after learning about the danger? Why did he refuse to leave?
"That's right. At that time, we were all angry because he refused to board the ship and wasted time. We felt that he had forgotten something precious, so we lingered and refused to leave."
"But who knew he would drag his suitcase over and open it in front of us..."
"What do you think is inside?"
Although Bai Lu's words were a question, he did not wait for anyone else to answer, but continued on his own:
"It's not gold and silver jewelry at all, but full of costumes and masks."
Ah Wei, Chen Xiaoxiao and others were all shocked when they heard this.
The heavy suitcase that Xu Tian dragged when he set out actually contained costumes and masks?
"What about the Thousand Chance Umbrella?" Chen Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask.
"I also asked Mr. Xu about this, and he said that he ordered it from a merchant who made cosplay props on Taobao earlier. Because he also bought other costumes, the boss even gave him a discount, and it cost him less than 500 yuan.
Got off..."
"..."
The scene suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
The people present did not cheer for joy after hearing this, but instead stared at Bai Lu with expressionless eyes.
Who would have thought that the tattoo organization, which has given Interpol a headache and issued reward orders everywhere, would be so frightened by the cosplay props that it fled?
If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes just now, they would have thought Bai Lu was bragging.
"This is impossible..."
Chen Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shake her head: "How could Xu Scumbag know so much about the Shadow organization, and also know the true identity of One-Eyed Jack? And he also seemed to be a prophet of the unknown, preparing a response plan in advance?"
"It will take a week to prepare those props and costumes, and at that time, we haven't set off yet!"
Chen Xiaoxiao's question is what others present are eager to know.
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Bai Lu shrugged: "In that case, we didn't have time to ask questions, so we just put on those costumes according to his instructions."
At this moment, Xiao Can, who was resting on the lounge chair next to him, raised his hand weakly and said, "Don't you think he figured out that we are in danger by looking at his palm or astrology chart?"
Everyone: "..."
Xu Tian did tell them that he could read palmistry and astral charts, and he also predicted that Chen Xiaoxiao would be in trouble and Xiao Can would meet a noble person who was difficult to resist.
And before they left for the Lighthouse Country, they also said that their situation would be very dangerous after coming this time.
Once is a coincidence, twice may be a coincidence.
But he said it right one after another, then...
"Mr. Xu is not really a master, is he?"
A young bodyguard couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't believe him before. I thought he was telling nonsense. I am guilty. I shouldn't question the master..."
The other bodyguard nodded with deep understanding: "Originally I couldn't understand why Mr. Tang fell in love with Mr. Xu, but now I suddenly feel that Mr. Tang is really prescient!"
Most people believed in the rhetoric of palmistry and astrolabe, and lamented that Xu Tian had accurate calculations and might be a master.
But there are also staunch atheists who do not believe in these claims of strange powers and gods.
What kind of era is it now, and there are still people who believe in magic sticks?
But they couldn't think of a more reasonable explanation.
How did Xu Tian know the information that Shadow Master believed?
Even for the Thousand Chance Umbrella, which no living person had ever seen before, he was able to find someone to order it, and he actually managed to get through it.
In the end, it was Ah Wei who spoke up: "No matter whether Mr. Xu has foresight or not, it is a fact that he saved us, and we should not doubt his motives."
"If he really had bad intentions, we would have died by the tattoo's knife long ago."
The bodyguards all nodded when they heard this.
"Awei is right..."
"If it weren't for Mr. Xu, all of us would have died this time."
After all, they had just experienced life and death with Xu Tian, so they would not doubt Xu Tian at this time.
Xu Tian could obviously leave by boat, but at the critical moment he thought of a way to impersonate Shadow and saved everyone.
Originally, they all thought that Xu Tian was a pretty boy being kept by Tang Bingyan, but now it seems that their vision was too narrow.
Chen Xiaoxiao found that all her bodyguards had defected and had nothing to say.
After all, it was Xu Tian who saved the eldest lady this time.
As the first secret guard around the eldest lady, not only did she fail to protect the eldest lady, she almost died at the hands of the person with the tattoo.
If it weren't for Xu Tian, I'm afraid Xiao Can would have been killed by the vampire George.
While the bodyguards were sitting in the living room chatting in twos and threes, Xu Tian stayed at Tang Bingyan's bedside in the bedroom.
Tang Bingyan took medicine and her condition became slightly stable, but she still didn't wake up.
Xu Tian sat motionless by the bed, still holding her hand firmly in his hand.
Tang Bingyan's hands were cold and without any warmth, and only the weak rise and fall of her chest proved that she was still alive.
She rarely showed herself in such a weak state. If it weren't for the over-fatigue that caused the illness that she had suppressed to break out, Xu Tian would not have known that her health had deteriorated to this extent.
There was a sudden knock on the door, and a bodyguard carrying a tray came in.
"Mr. Xu, it's time to eat."
The bodyguard respectfully placed the tray on the bedside table next to Xu Tian. His attitude towards Xu Tian had changed significantly from before going to the Lighthouse Country.
Even before departure, although these bodyguards did not show obvious discrimination, Xu Tian could see from their eyes that they also hated him as much as Chen Xiaoxiao.
"Thank you." Xu Tian responded lightly, but did not touch the food on the bedside table.
Tang Bingyan was not awake yet, and he had no appetite at all.
"Um..." The bodyguard delivered the food and did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood in front of Xu Tian with a troubled face and hesitant words.
"What's wrong?" Xu Tian raised his head and looked at the red-faced bodyguard in front of him.
"Actually, it's not a big deal...it's just..."
The little bodyguard seemed unable to speak, but under Xu Tian's probing eyes, he still mustered up the courage to speak: "Mr. Xu, I heard that you can read palms. If you have time, can you help me read it?"
