Trafford’s Trading Club

After the 'eldest cousin' left the teaching building, a man who was hiding under a tree and smoking quickly walked up.

The 'eldest cousin' said casually: "We've finished delivering the goods. Let's go back. Don't make me wait too long."

Soon after, an ordinary yellow TAC car drove out of the university grounds outside the campus. It didn't take long for the car to drive into a bustling downtown.

It stopped in front of an old building.

The 'eldest cousin' seemed very cautious. After observing his surroundings, he went upstairs with his companions and came to a middle-floor house.

The person who opened the door was a bearded guy. The 'eldest cousin' threw something to the bearded guy, "Antibiotics, bought on the way, give them to Will."

The bearded man nodded and looked back. At this time, there was a man lying weakly on a worn-out sofa.

His shoulder was covered with a large number of bandages, and the bandages were still stained with blood. If the police were here, they would find that this injured man was the prisoner who shot and caused chaos on the day of the theater memorial service and finally escaped.

"Where's the boss?" 'Big Cousin' asked again at this time.

The bearded man said casually: "Boss and Brother Boston are in the room, please go in."

The 'eldest cousin' nodded, and then walked quickly into the room pointed by the bearded man. When he opened the door, Boston was counting wads of money.

Boston saw his 'eldest cousin' come in, and after calling him, he took out a roll of banknotes (a U.S. knife) and threw it directly over, "My boss will reward you for your hard work."

The 'Big Cousin' smiled, took the roll of banknotes readily, and then said to a young man who was reading a book in front of Boston: "Thank you, Boss Arnold."

Arnold, the boss.

He lowered his head, holding a ballpoint pen in his hand, and was writing formulas one after another in the book. There was even a stack of thick reference books beside him.

"You deserve to be paid for doing things for me." Arnold pushed up the glasses on his face and said calmly: "And what you get will only get more and more."

At this time, Boston shrugged and said: "Boss, I just don't understand. Aren't we in a good place now? Money comes quickly. You can have sex with any girl you want. Why else are you going to school?"

"Boston, you go out after counting the money." Arnold still didn't look up, "Then let someone keep an eye on Lawyer Carol. Caroline has given us so much money, there is no reason for us not to want it."

"I like this job!" Boston laughed, picked up a wad of bills and kissed them!

"And keep looking for Caroline, don't let her run away." Arnold ordered again.

Boston casually took a wad of bills and stuffed them into his pocket, then opened the door and walked out. The 'eldest cousin' originally followed and left, but Arnold shouted down.

"Is there nothing wrong with you going to deliver the goods?" Arnold asked.

'Big Cousin' said: "No, it went pretty smoothly. It's just...it's just that Haili was a little uncooperative. He said he didn't want to continue working."

"I don't raise trash." Arnold said calmly: "If he doesn't do anything, let him go to jail."

The 'eldest cousin' said: "I told him the same thing, but he still didn't bite in the end... By the way, boss, are we going to help some mysterious woman sell these 'bath salts' from now on?"

Arnold raised his head and said, "Why not sell it? Since this woman has the ability to integrate so many small gangs in the nearby streets, it is conceivable that the power behind it is terrifying. And it is not a long-term solution for us to keep fighting like this. To develop and expand, it needs more funds. We help her bulk cargo, which is a good source of funds."

'Big Cousin' nodded and said: "It's better for smart people to think about these things. Anyway, I just know that since I followed you, I have never been poor."

Arnold waved his hand and said, "Outside the market at the university, let others be careful not to do business with other big guys."

"But then many of the goods we have on hand will not be sold soon?"

Arnold said: "Then let's stock up first. Now every big guy has a lot of goods, and the customers of those big guys are basically fixed. If they want to grab them, they are all fighting a price war. These people can I can't afford to spend money. Besides, we don't buy much in the first place, and Boston pays it back in advance, so we naturally have to sell it at the best price."

"I understand." 'Big Cousin' nodded.

After he went out, Arnold took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows, looking a little tired.

But he deeply understands one thing, that is, if you are born without a superior environment than others, you can only catch up through several times of hard work.

Arnold rested for a while and then regained his energy.

He suddenly opened the drawer and took out a bank card with a password written on it. He had checked the number on the card at the ATM.

"Where did you get it from? It's just an ordinary prostitute." Arnold suddenly frowned: "There must be some secret... Was that scene last time in vain?"

Arnold couldn't help but ponder.

…

…

"Is Arnold the real boss?"

Caroline looked at the disfigured man in front of her in disbelief. Listening to his words that were obviously filled with deep hatred, she said in shock: "But Arnold, isn't he a top student?"

"The student is just a cover-up for his identity." The man finished, "But really, he is the mastermind behind it, including Boston."

"It's impossible. I saw Arnold hung up by Boston that day and he was beaten severely!"

The man said calmly: "Did you see it with your own eyes? In other words, did you see Arnold being beaten by people from Boston?"

"But the injuries on his body at that time..."

"Let me ask you, have you seen it with your own eyes? How long and where were you hit?" The man sneered: "Miss, don't you know there is such a thing as makeup in this world?"

"But he...why did he want to act in this scene?" Caroline frowned.

The man shook his head and said: "This is also what I am confused about. Arnold used this method to deceive you, probably because he wanted to get something from you... I know his character too well. He thought he was smarter than everyone else, thought he Able to play with everyone in applause. Huh... always have. You don't know, right? These two brothers grew up in the slums. The elder brother is Haley, who has been a fool all his life, and the younger brother Ah It seems that Nuo has robbed his brother of his IQ since he was born... No matter how many bad things Nuo has done over the years, he has always done it under the identity of Haley."

The man's sneer was even stronger: "In school, he is a student with excellent academic performance. Outside of school, he is just Hailey who has accomplished nothing and caused trouble everywhere. Since he was a child, Arnold has been forcing Hailey to follow him. He plays this identity-swap game.”

"That...impossible...how could it be..." Caroline felt quite confused. She leaned against the wall, "Now...is it Haley or Arnold who is in school now?"

"Of course it's Hailey now." The man said coldly: "Arnold will never let himself do dangerous things. Except for exams that he must take in person and some necessary occasions, Arnold is afraid that Haili will be exposed. Otherwise, the rest of the time it was Haley playing the student Arnold."

Caroline was silent for a long time, and suddenly she had a funny feeling... She had always been involved in the identity game between the two Arnold brothers.

"You...how do you know so clearly?" After laughing at herself, Caroline became even more curious about the origin of this disfigured guy.

He said that he lived in dormitory 403 because of the two brothers, and it was obviously with strong hatred... did he want revenge?

The man sneered and said, "Of course I know that. Ever since I survived the accident and recovered from my injuries, I have been quietly following these two brothers."

"Keep following..." Caroline was startled, suddenly remembered something, and said quite excitedly: "You... do you know how Livia died? Who is the murderer?"

The man said calmly: "Of course it's Haili. Let me tell you this, Haili has a very low self-esteem because he has always lived in the shadow of Arnold. There is a violent side hidden in his character. Of course, He usually does not break out easily. Because he has been in conflicts for a long time, he has developed a special sexual fetish. He likes to torture and kill prostitutes, and Livia is not the first one. It’s just that he used to It was almost all settled by Arnold.”

He sat down again, "Why did Haili suddenly take action that night? I don't know the specific situation because I have never been there. But I think he might have been stimulated or something. Afterwards, Haili panicked and hit After a phone call, Arnold showed up not long after. At this time, they changed their identities. Arnold should have come to deal with the scene... In the morning, Hailey followed Arnold's instructions and left the school normally, and then They returned to the rented place. At this time, they changed their identities again. Arnold put on his own clothes and pretended to be just back from school.

Caroline said in disbelief: "At that time...Hailey, was Haley still there?"

The man nodded and said, "He was here, but he was hiding. It wasn't until he saw you climbing out of the drainage pipe that Haili left quietly."

Caroline suddenly rushed forward excitedly, stared at the other party angrily, and said angrily: "Since you know all this, why don't you stand up and testify against Hailey and Arnold... Didn't you say that you look like them now? Did the two brothers do it?"

The man said calmly: "First of all, I have no reason to help you. Then... just proving that Hailey is the murderer is not what I want."

The man's eyes, wrapped in bandages, were filled with bright red bloodshot eyes... These were the eyes of an avenger.

Suddenly, Caroline suddenly had an idea... This person wanted to take revenge on the Arnold brothers in his own way.

This gaze made Caroline feel unusually cold, and she thought of the scene she had 'seen' in her heart.

I don’t know whether it was ‘Arnold’ or ‘Hailey’, but in the woods, a mysterious man stabbed him in the chest with a knife.

Could it be that that person is the terrifying guy in front of me...

"Caroline, I need your help." The man suddenly turned off the projector in the screening room, and the film slowly stopped, making Caroline feel as if time had suddenly stopped, "Wait for me When I finish what I want, I can prove your innocence.”

"I……"

"I've checked that you are the same as Livia. Although you don't have a glorious career, you can at least walk on the road openly." The man sneered: "Instead of hiding here and there with a suspect on your head like you do now. There are even people from Boston looking for you...Listen, everything bad about you is caused by these two brothers. I can't figure out why you have to reject me."

Seeing Caroline's delay in responding, the man frowned and said, "Why, it seems that you think it doesn't matter if you are killed, right?"

Unexpectedly, Caroline suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed the other person's arm with great force. Caroline stared at the other person.

"What do you want to do?" The man looked at Caroline's behavior in confusion.

"What's your name?" Caroline suddenly asked, "Since we are going to cooperate next, you have to let me know how I should call you."

The man glanced at Caroline suspiciously, then casually swatted away Caroline's hand that grabbed him, and said casually: "The old me is dead, just call me 403."

"Then what should I do now?" Caroline asked.

403 said: "Don't do anything, you go back to dormitory 403 first."

Caroline frowned and said, "I've already come out. Now go back, Arnold... No, won't Hailey doubt me?"

403 said: "Don't worry, he hasn't gone back yet. Now Haili is venting his unhappiness. He hired a prostitute and she should be in a nearby hotel now. You can still catch up if you go back now."

With that said, 403 handed something to Caroline.

"This is……"

"Be careful with the electric shock rod." After 403 finished speaking, he put on a leather hood with a human face on his face, "I will contact you. And if you find anything, just Write it on a note and throw it into the trash bag. By the way...this is the key to dormitory 403. Next time you come back from out, remember to pay attention to whether there is anything on the crack of the door."

…

Caroline cautiously opened the door of dormitory 403, and was slightly relieved when she found that it was just as 403 said, Hailey was not here.

She wandered alone in the dormitory, thinking about what happened tonight.

If in the scene she 'saw', when one of the Arnold brothers was being tortured to death, the word 403 appeared, would it mean that she would be one of the factors that contributed to this scene happening?

Also... the scene she 'saw' about her own death... does it mean that if she helps 403, that will be her fate?

Caroline bit her fingernails nervously, fidgeting and looking extremely frightened. She suddenly felt that being able to 'see' the future was not a happy thing, especially when you see that you will die. .

"No...it can be changed!!"

Caroline's eyes suddenly opened, and she remembered the scene when she grabbed the woman pushing the stroller.

Because of her intervention, the woman and the baby did not die in the car accident.

It can be...changed!
