the next day.

Xiao Yao and Zhou Tongtong were released.

But the two of them were already handcuffed and shackled and locked in a closed cabin.

Suspected life at sea is still going on.

Since the sunset moon cannot be seen, Xiao Yao cannot calculate the exact time.

I can feel that a month or so has passed.

On this day, the freighter finally docked.

Xiao Yao and Zhou Tongtong were put on their headgear and were escorted to the shore, before being taken into a car.

It was another long day's journey.

In the end, the two were taken into a certain building and detained in two rooms respectively.

Headgear, handcuffs, and fetters are all lifted inside.

Xiao Yao looked around for a while.

Not a cell, but a suite.

The windows were sealed, and the furnishings inside were very old and old, just like antique furniture from the old times, and there was also a bathroom.

After not taking a bath for more than a month, Xiao Yao didn't care whether he was being watched or not, so he washed a lot.

When he walked out of the bathroom in a bathrobe, the door opened.

Two European and American men walked in and looked at Xiao Yao fiercely. One of them held a ‘slight punch’ in his hand and pointed it at him.

"Follow us!"

The other party spoke English, which was pure, not American English.

Eagle countryman?

With a weird smile on Xiao Yao's face, he followed the two big men out of the room and into a long corridor.

The scene in the promenade is still a bit old, similar to the ancient architectural style, and it feels like being in an old castle.

Until Xiao Yao was taken to a door, the door opened and Xiao Yao was pushed in.

The rooms are large and antique, and all the furnishings are medieval style, even the decoration is like this, it looks old.

There is a chair in the hall.

This is an old sandalwood chair.

You can see the armrests on both sides of the chair. I don't know how many years of mossing, it has become extremely shiny and smooth, as if it has experienced the baptism of years.

But this chair feels like it doesn't show any signs of decay, just like the old man sitting on the chair.

The old man is very old, looks more than 60 years old, has a typical white skin, blue eyes, wrinkled face, not very tall, wearing a large casual clothes, wearing a large head Wearing a ridiculous little blue top hat, in those muddy eyes, occasional light flashes through, revealing a trace of wisdom that can see through the world.

When Xiao Yao was looking at the old man, the old man also stretched out an old finger, pointed at the little top hat on his head, and said in English: "Actually, someone made fun of me many years ago."

"What did they make fun of?"

Xiao Yao looked at the old man, smiled and asked, "With your ability, the person who made fun of you must be dead, right?"

"No, that person is not dead."

The wrinkled face of the old man in the bowler hat showed a kind smile, "Because he is not someone I can kill. You see, this is a matter of strength. I am old and talk a lot. I just want to tell you. When a person has strength, ability, and influence, even if you laugh at others, others can't treat you, young man, are you right?"

"It makes sense."

Xiao Yao nodded, "But, does this have anything to do with you bringing me here?"

"I like strong people."

The old man in the bowler hat looked at Xiao Yao earnestly, "I spent a small amount of money and used some small means. One month's time is enough to check your life experience and your strength and ability. So I am reluctant to kill. You, you are different from those ants. You are worth training, and worth letting me use some means to control you and let you do things for me in the future."

"Ant?"

Xiao Yao smiled, "Ordinary people are just ants in your eyes?"

"Yeah, it's also a bee."

The old man nodded, "Bees need to be responsible for collecting honey. I am responsible for collecting honey. This is their job. If these bees don't work, keeping them will be useless, right?"

"Your reasoning is not necessarily the reasoning of others."

Xiao Yao walked forward, sitting on the sofa opposite the old man by himself, as if he was in his own home, looking straight at the dazed old man, "I will not be your subordinate, because you are not worthy. But what you said just now is true. There are some truths. When the power stands up and speaks, money and power must evade. Of course, you should add another sentence before this sentence."

"what?"

The old man frowned and looked at Xiao Yao coldly.

"When the power reaches the extreme, some bells and whistles of conspiracy and scheming seem ridiculous and pathetic."

Xiao Yao stared at the old man, "It's just that I never thought that a money management organization that commits numerous crimes internationally is actually controlled by the Chinese. Moreover, the organization's nest actually exists in China, which makes me feel very much. surprise!"

"what are you saying?"

The old man's eyes narrowed and his expression was cold.

"No need to pretend."

Xiao Yao's expression is calm, "Although you are really perfect when you pretend to be a foreigner, perfect to the point where ordinary people can hardly tell with the naked eye. But..."

"but what?"

The old man looked at Xiao Yao coldly.

"Your nails, the teeth that you show when you open your mouth, and the quality of your hair exposed outside the top hat all show that you are not an old man."

Xiao Yao pointed his finger at the old man’s hands, teeth, and hair. “You can disguise the skin of an old man, but you can’t disguise the white vitality in the nails of a young man. Also, your teeth are too healthy, even your hair is hard. Not something old people can have. In the end, would an old man wear contact lenses? For the sake of fashion?"

"It turns out that my makeup is not perfect yet."

The old man laughed, and his voice became bright and loud, and he was no longer half old, "Then how do you see that we are in China?"

"It's very simple."

Xiao Yao sneered, "People are fake, why can't the environment be faked? Originally, I thought I was taken on a freighter and taken out of the country. But I later found out that something seemed to be wrong. The hull was not swayed enough, and there was no sky. The whistle sounds at a fixed time. The oscillating degree of the hull is also very slight. The most interesting thing is that the swaying and oscillating degree of the hull is a regularity every day. Even people who have not been on a boat should know about the wind and waves on the sea. Different, the degree of shaking and shaking of the hull will be different. What kind of ship can keep the same regular shaking in the sea for a month? Do you think it is nonsense? The most ridiculous thing is that when I was caught When you get on the car, the car always runs in a straight line? Are you kidding me? Which road in this world can go straight for up to a day without turning?"

"Smart people often die the fastest!"

The old man's face finally changed, and water dripped out of gloomy.

"Does it depend on you?"

Xiao Yao chuckled and shook his head, "I said, you are not worthy. It is not you who are qualified to talk to me. Call out the people behind you!"
