"I'm going back tomorrow." Huo Jiakai said.
Lu Yue was speechless for a long time. She felt a little sad that she had just had a good feeling and was about to separate. But no matter what she thought, she was not a girl who could not make sense of things." Yes, I know. I'll send you tomorrow."”
The two of them sat against the wall, and the moonlight shone through the window. Huo Jiakai let Lu Yue lean on his shoulder and put his arm around her shoulder. He told her many things that he had never told anyone before.
Huo Jiakai told Lu Yue how he was trained to be an assassin. As for how he was abducted into this organization, he was still too young at that time. I can't remember. He only remembered sitting in the cabin for a long time. Many children were suffocated to death, but he survived.
Later, he was sent to various places to receive various secret training. Getting injured and beaten was a common occurrence. There were many other children who were training with him, but slowly, they all disappeared. Little Huo Jiakai knew that they were all dead. He could only train harder, because if he couldn't do it, he might die at any time.
Lu Yue's eyes were filled with tears as she listened. She had always been a little self-pitying, but she did not know that such a tragic thing could happen in the world. Huo Jiakai was very calm, as if he was telling someone else's story. Huo Jiakai smiled and asked casually," You said you had a secret to tell me. Why didn't you tell me today?”
Lu Yue looked at Huo Jiakai shyly and said," I've already told you a big secret. Now, there's only a small secret."”
Huo Jiakai said," Maybe I'm more interested in this little secret.”
Lu Yue said," Do you still remember that I asked you to sing for me? When I was in my teens, I secretly liked a boy who could sing. He had never forgotten the song he had sung before. It's just that right now, I'd rather have someone sing to me by my side. That day, I will never forget the song you sang, Need You Now.”
Huo Jiakai hugged Lu Yue tightly." Close your eyes and rest. I'll sing for you."”
Huo Jiakai sang every song he knew. The lights in the room were off, and only the silver moonlight enveloped the room.
Lu Yue obediently closed her eyes and leaned into Huo Jiakai's arms. Her singing under the moonlight was like water, seeping into their hearts. Tears of happiness fell from Lu Yue's smiling lips.
In the middle of the night, Huo Jiakai looked down at Lu Yue, who had fallen asleep in his arms. He stroked her hair lovingly and gently carried her to bed. He couldn't help but plant a gentle kiss on her rosy and soft lips.
Huo Jiakai tidied up and left quietly. He immediately bought a mobile phone after returning to the city. He had received news last night that the remaining money for the mission had been transferred to his account. He hoped to meet her as soon as possible.
Lu Yue opened her eyes when she heard Huo Jiakai close the door.
In fact, she had woken up when Huo Jiakai carried her to bed, but she did not open her eyes. She knew that it was time to part. She did not want to watch Huo Jiakai leave, nor did she want to cry and say goodbye.
When Huo Jiakai kissed Lu Yue, she pretended to be asleep and responded casually. She didn't know if Huo Jiakai noticed.
Huo Jiakai left Lu Yue and went to an empty street. He found a 24-hour hotel and booked a room.
Huo Jiakai looked at the camera and entered the room. He quickly put on the clothes and hat he had prepared beforehand, stuck on the fake beard, and looked at the person in the mirror. He couldn't recognize him.
Huo Jiakai took out a black cloth bag. She stuffed the food into the clothes she had just changed into, opened the door, and quickly walked out to avoid the cameras.
He went to another rented house and hid the black cloth bag in a very secret place. After doing all this, he returned to the hotel without anyone noticing and took a nap.
A plane landed in a country in South America. A handsome young man wearing sunglasses was picked up by a black car the moment he got off the plane. The car stopped in a dilapidated building area. There was no one in the entire construction area.
The group of people came down and turned into a dilapidated building. There was a tightly shut iron door downstairs. The iron door opened automatically only after everyone had used retina recognition. There was also a row of black-robed men inside. Each of them is tall and sturdy. Everyone was searched and entered a small elevator.
The handsome young man had already taken off his sunglasses, revealing his signature cold face. It was Huo Jiakai. The elevator stopped on the eighth floor. When they got out of the elevator, they felt like they were in two different worlds.
The entire eighth floor was lavishly decorated. There were dozens of crystal chandeliers in a huge hall. Complicated and gorgeous curtains hung from the ceiling, and the walls were decorated with world-famous paintings.
The floor was covered with a thick snow-white Turkish cashmere blanket. It was very empty, and there was only a red leather sofa in the middle of the hall. There were four burly men standing on the left and right sides of the hall's entrance. None of them were armed with guns. They should be experts in grappling and fighting.
Huo Jiakai glanced at the two people on the sofa. One of the handsome mixed-blood young men had already stood up and walked toward Huo Jiakai enthusiastically. He stretched out his arms exaggeratedly to hug him, but Huo Jiakai stopped him coldly.
Under such circumstances, it was not safe for him to be hugged, even if that person was Mike, whom he had known for a long time.
Mike didn't mind. He led him to the sofa and introduced him to another person. "Professor Brown, this is my friend Huo Jiakai.”
Mike then introduced Huo Jiakai," This is Professor Brown, an academician of the American Academy of Sciences, and your employer for this mission.”
Huo Jiakai sized him up. He was in his fifties, of medium height, with silver-gray hair, but he was unusually energetic. To Huo Jiakai's surprise, he had a European face.
Huo Jiakai had thought that the person who hired him to protect Lu Yue might be related to Lu Yue by blood or at least of the same race. It seemed that his analysis was wrong.
Professor Brown stretched out his hand and said," I've heard a lot about you. You live up to your reputation. Can you give me the information I want?"
Huo Jiakai said," I didn't expect Professor Brown to speak Chinese so well. The protection mission was completed, but the notebook you mentioned was not obtained. I've already searched carefully. There might not even be a notebook.”
Professor Brown's expression turned ugly." Young man, don't lie. We have reliable sources who can confirm that there is a notebook. If you hand over the notebook to us, you can get more money than you can enjoy in your lifetime.”
Huo Jiakai continued," Of course I know, so I searched very carefully. Think about it, even if you have the notebook you mentioned, after so many years, it might have been cleaned up as waste. In your eyes, it might be a treasure, but in the eyes of others, it might be waste paper. What do you think?"
Professor Brown's face was gloomy." There's another possibility that you're coveting him. You have to know the consequences of breaking the rules.”
Huo Jiakai sneered." I know the rules better than you. I'm not interested in the notebook. I'm only interested in money." They had agreed beforehand that it would be an additional mission. Completing the mission would give them a lot of money. Now that I don't have a laptop, I can help you search for free, but you're relying on me.”
The bodyguards at the door had already taken up advantageous positions and were ready to attack at any time. Huo Jiakai looked relaxed on the surface, but he was secretly prepared to capture Professor Brown if he made any strange moves.
The veins on Professor Brown's head bulged and throbbed. At this moment, a person who looked like a secretary appeared at the entrance of the hall. Bu Lang gestured for him to enter. The man approached Professor Brown and whispered in English," We've searched all the places where the shadow killer stopped on his way back from Tibet. We didn't find anything. He left Lu Yue's room with a black cloth bag and stayed in a hotel for four hours. When he came out, he still had the bag with him. We searched the bag, but there were only a few clothes and no notebook.”
Professor Brown asked." Have you searched the hotel and Lu Yue's house thoroughly?”
The man replied," We searched the hotel thoroughly for hygiene reasons. There was no notebook. We sneaked into Lu Yue's house and searched, but we didn't find anything.”
Bu Lang's face was livid. He wanted to control this cunning yellow-skinned Chinese man and force him to reveal the whereabouts of the notebook. However, they were afraid of his methods. In the end, he shook his head. The bodyguards heaved a sigh of relief and retreated to their original positions.
Professor Brown hated Huo Jiakai for messing up his plan.
He had originally raised the reward for finding the notebook to an unbelievable level. He wanted to use Huo Jiakai's ability to get the notebook and then kill the killer in his own territory. This way, he could get the notebook without having to pay a high price and keep the secret.
"If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving.”Huo Jiakai said coldly.
Professor Brown said to Mike,"Send Mr. Huo out."”
Mike accompanied Huo Jiakai out of the building, and a black car drove over silently. Huo Jiakai got into the car. Mike said to the driver,"Take this gentleman anywhere he wants to go."”
As the car drove out of the slums, Huo Jiakai felt a chill run down his spine and up the back of his neck.
Without warning, Huo Jiakai smashed the glass with his elbow and flew out of the window. Before he could get far, the car exploded, and the shockwave pushed him further away. After Huo Jiakai landed, he rolled a few times to put out the flames on his clothes. The car exploded into pieces, and only a few pieces of the driver's limbs could be seen.
Huo Jiakai narrowed his eyes, which were filled with hostility. This was a remote-controlled bomb that could be activated at any time. Obviously, he suspected that he might know a lot about the notebook and wanted to kill him to silence him.
