Start a mysterious island

"..." Mr. Xu's expression changed as he listened to the various subtle sounds coming from the other side of the phone.

He didn't hang up the phone, but got up from the bed and ran quickly to his study.

He opened the desk drawer, took out another mobile phone, and made a call.

"beep……"

Just a few seconds after the call was dialed, the person on the other side answered the call.

"Why are you calling me so late at night?" A confused voice came from the mobile phone. The person opposite should have been sleeping before, and then was woken up by the sudden reminder of the ringtone of the mobile phone.

Mr. Xu didn't beat around the bush, he went straight to the point and explained his purpose.

"Something must have happened to my men. Now I need you to arrange for someone to help me go to his current location to check."

"Huh?" The originally very vague voice immediately became clear after Mr. Xu said something, and then the person opposite said in a serious tone, "Are you sure something happened to him?"

"There is a high probability that something happened..." Mr. Xu said with certainty.

A serious voice came from the mobile phone, "Okay, please send me the location information of your men, and I will arrange for someone to help you take a look..."

The call lasted less than two minutes, and Mr. Xu finished talking to his friend.

After hanging up the phone, he immediately took something out of the drawer.

The thing was a machine, palm-sized, boxy, and looked very ordinary.

After Mr. Xu took out the machine, he immediately turned it on. After entering the password, a flashing light spot appeared on the display.

Touch the flashing light spot on the screen with your finger, and a set of coordinate numbers will appear.

Mr. Xu picked up his spare mobile phone and sent the coordinates of the current location of the young man with dyed blond hair to his friend.

After everything was settled, Mr. Xu picked up the cell phone he was still talking on.

The opposite side was still as it was at the beginning, without a word. Except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves and the chirping of insects from time to time, there was no other movement.

Time passed by, and Mr. Xu stayed in the study for nearly an hour, without leaving the study.

"Tap, step, step..."

There had been no other sound coming from the phone, and then footsteps appeared.

After hearing the movement, Mr. Xu quickly picked up the mobile phone on the table.

The moment the phone was picked up, a very deep voice came from the phone, "Is it Mr. Xu?"

"It's me." Mr. Xu replied. He knew without asking that the person holding the phone was a subordinate sent by his friend.

And the fact is just as Xu Sanye thought, the person holding the mobile phone of the young man with blond hair is the man sent by his friend.

After the other party revealed his identity, he reported the situation at the scene to Master Xu.

"The car is overturned now... The man is still alive, but he has suffered serious injuries and is unconscious. He needs to be sent to the hospital for treatment quickly, otherwise his life will be in danger."

"Are there any signs of fighting at the scene?" Mr. Xu asked.

"There were no signs of a fight."

"Okay, I understand. Now I have to work hard to take him to the hospital."

After briefly explaining a few words and ending the call, Mr. Xu leaned back on his chair and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Although it had been expected that something happened to the young man with blond hair, it was still quite a headache when it was actually confirmed.

"Who attacked him? And it was so late at night, why did he end up in that place?"

Mr. Xu kept thinking about the young man with blond hair. The quiet atmosphere in the study was broken by the sudden ringtone of his cell phone.

"Dinglingling..."

Mr. Xu looked at the caller ID and saw that it was a call from a friend. He thought that the men he sent had already reported to him about the young man with blond hair on their way back to the city.

"It's just like you said, something happened to him, and he was seriously injured."

As soon as the call was connected, my friend's voice immediately came from the phone.

"Fortunately, he is still alive." Mr. Xu said.

"Do you know who attacked your men?"

"Not sure."

"Is it possible that someone from the Black Crow Organization did it?"

"It's unlikely they did it."

"Why is it unlikely that they did it? You know, they hate us so much that they will never give up retaliating against us as long as they have the chance."

“I fought with their leader not long ago, and he was no less injured than me.

Before they recover from their injuries, no matter how much they hate us, they will not send out manpower to carry out an ambush attack just for one person..."

"Listening to what you said, that's true...and I found one point that proves what you said is right..."

"You mean, he is still alive now, which proves that the people who launched the attack were not those bastards from the Black Crow Organization?"

"Yes, if it was those bastards from the Black Crow Organization, your subordinate would be dead by now."

The two chatted for a while. After ending the call, Mr. Xu stood up and came to the window, looking into the distance through the glass.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky. Due to the city lights, there are basically few stars in the sky.

Mr. Xu stared at the bright moon hanging high in the sky in the distance, frowned, and murmured to himself, "Now is the time to employ people, but something like this happened..."

…………

The next morning, shortly after dawn, Mr. Xu came down from the second floor.

"Boss, are you going out?" The housekeeping aunt who was preparing to make breakfast asked when she saw Mr. Xu changing his shoes at the entrance.

"Yes, I'm eating outside, you don't have to prepare my breakfast." Mr. Xu said, then opened the door and left the villa.

A luxury car drove out of the garage, left the villa community, and drove orderly to a hospital in the city center.

In the early morning, there were very few vehicles on the street. The sanitation workers who got up early cleaned the streets and are now doing the finishing work.

Later, after they finish the work at hand, they will go to the early breakfast stall to have breakfast.

In front of the hospital, there were many people buying breakfast from the street stalls selling breakfast.

"Boom..."

The roar of cars sounded in the distance. People queuing up to buy breakfast turned their heads and saw that it was a luxury car.

Not long after, a luxury car came from the end of the street and parked in a parking space on the side of the road.

Mr. Xu opened the car door and got out of the car, and found that many people were looking at him.

Ignoring the looks of these people, Mr. Xu quickly walked towards the hospital.

…………

The ward was filled with the smell of disinfectant. Mr. Xu looked expressionlessly at his unconscious subordinate lying on the bed.

Last night, a young man with blond hair was sent to the hospital, and the doctor immediately gave him first aid.

Although he is now out of danger, he is still in a coma due to the severity of his injuries. The doctor cannot tell an accurate time when he will wake up.

Coincidentally, the patient living in the next ward was the eldest brother of the young man with dyed blond hair.

"You take good care of them. If anyone wakes up, call me as soon as possible." The angry Xu Sanye controlled his emotions and told his subordinates.

The younger brother, who had been arranged to be cared for in the hospital by the young man with hair dyed blond, nodded quickly after hearing Mr. Xu's instructions.

When Mr. Xu was about to leave, the younger brother who was taking care of him in the hospital shouted.

"Master Xu."

"Huh?" Mr. Xu stopped and turned around to look at him.

"Um..." The younger brother who was taking care of him in the hospital was a little scared when he faced Mr. Xu. He hesitated and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

Mr. Xu had never liked people who were nagging. Seeing the other party's appearance, he was already angry and couldn't control his emotions, so he immediately scolded him with an unpleasant look on his face.

"Why are you hesitating? If you have anything to say, just say..."

The little brother who was taking care of him in the hospital was so frightened that he was scolded like this, and then he spoke quickly to Mr. Xu.

"We have no money on hand. Now that the eldest brother and the second brother are unconscious, what will happen to their medicine expenses?"

"..." After hearing this, Mr. Xu immediately knew that the other party wanted money, and he fell silent immediately.

If it were any other time, medical expenses would not be a problem for him.

However, now, due to various reasons, he does not have much funds on hand, and it is very difficult to pay for the medicine.

The younger brother who was taking care of him at the hospital looked at Mr. Xu expectantly. He had previously told the young man with blond hair about the medical expenses.

The young man with dyed blond hair was supposed to solve this problem, but now something happened to him and he was lying in the hospital ward.

The cost of medicine for one person is already a lot, and now he has to pay twice. If he doesn't seek help from Mr. Xu, there is really no way to solve this problem.

Mr. Xu couldn't spare any extra money at this time to pay for the medical bills of his two men, but he couldn't refuse.

After all, the two men who are now unconscious are working hard for him.

If you refuse to help pay their medical bills at this time, what will other subordinates think once word spreads?

Later, Mr. Xu said a few words and then left the ward. The face of the younger brother who was taking care of him in the hospital was full of happiness.

"twitter……"

A group of small sparrows flew overhead, leaving behind a series of crisp chirps.

When Mr. Xu came out of the hospital, the sun had already risen for some distance.

The golden sunlight shines from a distance and falls on the buildings, as if they are covered with golden clothes.

Mr. Xu raised his hand to block his face, and the morning sun fell on his face through the gaps between his fingertips.

"Next, I have to make a sum of money in the shortest possible time..."

The luxury car parked on the street started. People queuing up to buy breakfast at the breakfast stall in the distance watched the car go away quickly and disappeared around the corner of the street soon.

…………

In the villa community, Mr. Xu, who had gone out early, returned home.

"Boss, have you had breakfast? If not, I'll prepare it for you."

The housekeeping aunt who was cleaning saw Mr. Xu coming back so early after going out. She guessed that he might not have been out and had breakfast, so she asked.

Mr. Xu, who had just returned from the hospital, was in a very bad mood. He had no appetite at all at this time.

The steps under his feet paused for a moment, and Mr. Xu said to the housekeeping aunt, "I have already eaten breakfast outside."

After saying that, he quickly walked to the second floor of the villa.

Although Mr. Xu tried not to show his inner thoughts on his face, the housekeeping aunt who had worked at Mr. Xu's house for several years still caught some subtle changes in Mr. Xu's face, so she came up with a guess.

"Boss, he seems to be in a bad mood. Did he encounter some difficulties in business?"

…………

"Click."

The door of the study room was pushed open, and Mr. Xu came to the desk, pulled out a chair and sat down.

He took his spare cell phone out of the drawer and dialed a number he rarely called.

"beep……"

After the number was dialed, no one answered the call for several seconds. Just when Mr. Xu thought the other party might have changed his number, the call was connected.

"Hello?"

"it's me."

"I know it's you. I haven't contacted you for a long time. Why did you think of calling me today?" The middle-aged man who was having breakfast with his children at home immediately got up and walked to the living room after answering the phone.

"I'm running into some little trouble now and need your help." Mr. Xu said.

"For you to call me for help so early in the morning, your so-called little trouble is not a small one!" the middle-aged man said.

Mr. Xu had a very good relationship with the other party and did not hide anything. He directly told what happened to him recently.

"..." After listening to what Mr. Xu said, the middle-aged man's relaxed tone disappeared and his expression became serious. He was silent for more than ten seconds and then spoke.

"Whether it's the Black Crow organization that's causing trouble for you, or the extremely dangerous practitioner who can use the white mist power who comes and goes without a trace, I can't handle it..."

What the middle-aged man wanted to express with these words was very obvious, that is, he had limited abilities and was unable to help Mr. Xu solve his current predicament.

"..." Mr. Xu pondered for a moment, put down his right hand that was rubbing his eyebrows, and said.

"The group of people in the Black Crow Organization and the practitioner who can use the white mist ability are naturally not something you can deal with. I know this very well.

I’m calling you because I want you to help me find a way to collect a sum of money in a short time..."

The middle-aged man asked in surprise, "Lack of money? No! Are you short of money too?"

Since the funding issue involves a plan that has not yet been implemented, it is not convenient for Xu Sanye to explain the situation to the other party.

"Too much money has been invested in the project, and the large sums of money cannot be recovered in a short period of time. And now I am in urgent need of a sum of money..."

After a brief explanation, the middle-aged man did not ask any further questions. He thought for a while and then spoke to Mr. Xu.

"As for the money problem, give me a day and I'll see if I can help you solve it..."
