Bai Hua sat in the room, listening to the sporadic gunshots in the distance. He stared at the pen and paper in front of him. It was a letter. He wrote page after page, but he could not finish it. His eyes were calm and he sighed.
There was a few rough knocks on the door, but it was just a superficial courtesy. The person who knocked on the door did not wait for his response and pushed the door open.
It was a blue-eyed Frenchman with light yellow hair cut into a crew cut. His body was surrounded by the smell of death. It was the smell of gunpowder. He had led a bloody attack not long ago.
Alan Dron, the leader and commander of this mysterious mercenary army.
"My men told me that you don't eat or sleep.”
He tried his best to maintain the elegant temperament and noble etiquette of a Frenchman.
It was just that his life in war had made him straightforward and decisive. His identity as a war hyena chasing after blood and death made his etiquette and elegance seem even more hypocritical, especially the so-called noble etiquette. In essence, it was just to draw a clear line between him and the lowly commoners. The arrogance and superiority hidden in his eyes could not be hidden at all.
" Bai," Lan said in a softer tone," you must maintain your best condition. We need you to be sober and energetic to serve us. There can't be any mistakes or mistakes."”
Bai Huaqian looked up at him and said indifferently,""Why? Do you have another ruin to blow up?”
Lan's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled calmly,""That's right."
He looked at his watch and said," You have to sleep and eat something. If you can't sleep, we can provide you with medicine because we'll be leaving soon.”
The experienced explosives engineer raised his eyebrows and said,""Where are we going?"
"The less you know, the better."”
" Russia sent troops to Ukran," Bai Huaqian sighed." According to the personality of the former KGB employee, it was indeed possible." The five permanent members had probably expected that even if the United Nations wanted to do something, it would not make any fierce response. If the master behind you clamored to send troops to interfere, it would seem very strange, and it would easily arouse the vigilance and curiosity of those big countries.”
"After all, there are no benefits to the country.”
" And I think that to get France and even the United Nations to pass a resolution to intervene by force and completely destroy the Uchran government and replace it with a 'democratic government' so that you can completely and calmly excavate the ruins instead of hiring clumsy local workers to almost blow up the mausoleum…you need a reason.”
The people of Zhuxia were silent for a moment before continuing,""I've thought about it, and there's no more suitable reason than a few citizens of the Xia Empire being brutally shot to death in Ukran.”
"My motherland will definitely be furious and respond fiercely. Such an action is no less than declaring war. For both public and private reasons, the Xia countries will definitely not let this matter rest.”
" What France has been guarding against is the expansion of China's influence. You see Africa as your backyard, and we have been building infrastructure for them. To be honest, I plan to go to Africa next year. Therefore, you can reasonably take on all responsibilities and agree to send troops to interfere with the resolution. Let France vent their anger on behalf of the Xia, complete a round of appeasement and exchange under the table of the five permanent members, and let the French do it on behalf of the Xia. They will smash Oakland into pieces and order them to compensate and apologize.”
"All motives are reasonable."
"My country will not pursue this matter because of France and the European Union. Oakland would sincerely apologize and severely execute the soldiers, officers, and even generals. The actor president would step down and compensate the families of the victims. The domestic public opinion would be appeased, and the international reputation would increase. Even if the idea of sending troops to interfere was suppressed by the law, there would definitely be other benefits.”
" Even the country is happy to see such a scene. After all, direct military intervention will still cause tension in the western countries. We have to rise peacefully.”
" As a result, all the countries were kept in the dark. You took a big detour, but you controlled the entire Ukran, allowing you to calmly develop those mysterious things in the mausoleum…This process is very roundabout, and it's very much like how you do things in the west. You paid such a huge price, so you must have gained more.”
Bai Huaqian took off his glasses and placed them on the table.
His tone was calm.
"It's just…I'm afraid I won't be able to live.”
He turned his head and looked at Lan, revealing a cold and mocking smile.
"Actually, this idea and method could also be used on French citizens who were shot and executed. It might even be more convenient. You guys changed your mind at the last minute, right…"
"After all, in your eyes, the lives of the French are precious, but the lives of the Chinese are not, right?" he said lightly.”
Alan wanted to say something.
But all the words were finished by this Zhuxia person.
This Zhuxia man had even guessed his own fate, but his eyes were surprisingly calm. It was not that he was not afraid, but he knew that fear was useless, and he had to maintain his dignity in front of the enemy.
He opened his mouth and sighed."You see, smart people sometimes live more tiredly and painfully than stupid people. This is because they have seen through the ending, but they can't change it.”
Bai Huaqian shook his head." No, I'd rather die sober than to feel regret before I die."”
A strange respect rose in Lan's heart. Perhaps it was a respect for the wise man, because this man from the Xia Dynasty had actually deduced a complete plan through some scattered clues and observations in the past few days.
Perhaps it was respect for the brave…As a mercenary, he was used to seeing conflicts of interest, used to seeing the loss of life, and used to seeing the ugliness of human nature, so he admired people who were unafraid of death.
"What regrets do you have?" he asked in a deep voice.”
"My son, my wife, I want to call my family."”
Lan thought for a moment and shook his head." I'm sorry, but I can't agree to it. Since you already know about this, I can't agree to it in case you secretly leak the news."”
"It's reasonable. I was just trying to ask. I worked for you and opened the collapsed underground tomb. I saw those things. From that moment on, the outcome was already decided.”
Bai Huaqian's calm words made Lan slightly embarrassed.
The people of Zhuxia picked up the paper in their hands.""A suicide note is fine, right?"
Alan thought for a moment and shook his head apologetically." I'm worried about the same thing. I'm not sure what kind of code message you'll bury in the text. You can only speak it out, and then I'll write it into French and translate it. That's all I can do. In fact, agreeing to your request is already a little risky. I agreed out of respect for a father.”
Bai Huaqian looked at him.”
"Yes, he's at the age where he's mischievous and arrogant. I hope that in twenty years, he will become Lan, I will become Big Lan, and my father will become Old Lan.”
" But it's not because of him…It's because of my father. Bai, everything I've done is for my father. He gave me selfless love and everything, and I'll repay him with everything I have. I can see the love you have for your son, just like how he loves me.”
"Is that so?" Bai Huaqian whispered.
" I sympathize with that young man," Alan said seriously." But there's nothing we can do about it. I can understand his urgency. If I were him, if my father was in danger, I would rescue him at all costs. I would kill everyone who tried to hurt my father. No one would be left alive.”
"I don't want him to come and save me," said his father, who came from the Xia Dynasty, softly.”
Alan smiled mockingly.”
"Isn't this good news for me?" Bai Huaqian asked.”
The French father's smile froze.
Zhu Xia's father continued," He will grieve, but he doesn't know who the real murderer of his father is. For him, this hatred has come to an end after he saw the execution of the 'murderer' by the Ukran government on TV. He will retrieve my ashes and walk out with his family and friends. I believe that he will continue to live a kind and upright life, continuing his bright life with a bright future..."
Alan's expression froze. He thought of his son, who had been in contact with the mercenary life since he was young.
For a moment, she did not know what to say. She did not know if she was regretful or envious.
" No matter what, if possible, I don't want a young man to lose his father. But for my father, everyone can be sacrificed. I don't mind killing more people…"
"I can only say sorry for this," he sighed.”
Bai Huaqian thought for a moment." I heard that your father is now living in a villa outside Paris. It seems that his health is not optimistic. Is there anything in the mausoleum that can cure him?" I'm very curious. What's in the tomb that's worth your country spending so much money and paying so much attention to?”
Lan was shocked and his eyes were filled with killing intent.""…Don't play any tricks.”
"Don't worry, I'm not an impulsive person.”Bai Huaqian said calmly," The success rate of messing up your business is not high. Moreover, whether it succeeds or not, I will die. It will even implicate my family and make them suffer your crazy revenge. I have no doubt that you will do that.”
Only then did Lan relax.
"I'm very sorry, Kang. I don't expect your understanding and forgiveness. This is all we can do.”
Only then did his tone have some sincerity and true apology.
Bai Huaqian was silent for a full minute, and then he revealed a bitter smile.
"It's useless to say more."
He said quietly," I will cooperate with you and work for you. I won't play any tricks. Remember to bring my last words to Zhuxia. Also, remember to put pressure on me. The compensation should be as high as possible.”
"…No problem, Bai. I promise you, I swear on my father's name.”
"Then, my goal has been achieved. My efforts tonight were not in vain.”Bai Huaqian put on his glasses and picked up his pen." I will eat and sleep in a while. You can go now."”
Alan slowly stood up and left, closing the door behind him.
This time, his movements were very light.
The tip of the pen was suspended in the air. Under the light, Bai Huaqian's side profile froze like a statue.
A moment later, water droplets splashed onto the paper, making a crisp sound.
Even if he was quick-witted, calm, and wise, he was still a mortal when he missed his wife and children.
It was flesh and blood.
Her husband and father.
He missed his family far away. When was the last time they met?
No one knew that it was farewell.
She had been separated from him since she was young, and she would never see him again.
There was no more suffering in the world than this.
Bai Huaqian had been a firm materialist since he was young. Even when he was about to die, he did not show any fear or pleading. Instead, he calmly called the enemy bandit leader over. Through verbal confrontation and psychological manipulation, he finally obtained a certain degree of respect and understanding from the enemy and reached some consensus.
At least he didn't die in a daze.
He did his best to arrange for his funeral.
He gave his final words to his loved ones and tried his best to fight for more compensation. As a husband and father, he had always tried his best to give his family a better life. He was like a dead person when he was alive, and he would do the same before he died.
Now, in the dead of night, he was writing his will and missing his family. His originally calm and untroubled heart was silently praying to all the gods and buddhas in the sky.
Anyone could do it.
Anyone could hear it.
Please help.
He prayed for the mercy of fate and the will of the gods and buddhas.
He was not praying for himself, but for his wife and son.
May he walk out of his sorrow as soon as possible. May he still be bright and pure. May he not be gloomy because of loss, nor cold because of separation. May he still pursue the light, still be full of hope, still have kindness in his heart. May he not blindly hate because of loss, and will not be hostile to an entire race because of one thing.
He should be able to do it.
After all, he is my son.
Even if we didn't spend much time together when we were young and I wasn't by your side often, you'll still grow up to be a good child. There's still Shanshan, Jiang Maocai, and his mother…It'll definitely be fine.
The child had already grown up.
When he thought of this, he felt that there was no need to pray to the gods.
Because that was his son.
He knew.
However, what this father did not know was that his son was not thousands of miles away. Instead, he was very close to him. His son had crossed thousands of miles and had already been stained with countless blood.
At this moment, Bai Yuan was driving his car through the dark night, madly driving in the direction of his father. His eyes were filled with killing intent, his gaze was cold, and he had no hesitation.
