Chapter 57 The Choice of Continuation
Suburbs, safe houses.
John, Brian, and McCall sat on the sofa waiting for Jason.
The sofas in the safe house are similar to those in Apartment 3A, and they are all around a coffee table.
The difference is that the coffee table in Apartment 3A is round. Here, a long coffee table is placed to match the long sofa. The two ends of the coffee table are independent sofas, and opposite the long sofa is a fireplace. .
Because the weather did not enter into winter, the fireplace was not lit, but surrounded by iron fences.
On the side of the fireplace, there is a wooden cabinet with ceramic teapots, glass coffee pots, white porcelain cups without patterns, dishes and so on.
Brian filled John and McCall with hot coffee and two teacups.
About 10 minutes ago, Jason called to say that he had something to discuss with them. Without any hesitation, John and McCall immediately put down the "work" at hand and rushed back here.
And Brian?
As the oldest of the four, he has been in charge of staying behind.
Although the defense level of this 'safe house' is quite high, it is impossible for no one to stay behind.
Kemi and Terry?
The two girls' self-protection ability is not as strong as Daisy's.
At least, Daisy has all fours on the ground and sharp teeth. When she whimpered, most people still dare not approach.
"How are you and Kemi?"
While waiting, McCall turned to look at Brian.
"fine."
"At least Kemi is willing to communicate with me."
"At noon, she even cooked for me."
Brian's face was filled with the happy smile of an old father.
"How is Terry?"
McCall asked again.
For the friend he rescued,
McCall is quite concerned, if it weren't for the frequent accidents, he would have sent the other party to the intended destination long ago.
It used to be a safer place in his opinion.
Sadly, nothing is safer now than here.
"not bad."
"She and Kemi became friends, and the two have been together, talking and laughing, and have a good relationship."
Brian replied.
"That's good."
McCall breathed a sigh of relief.
What he was most worried about was that Teri was autistic because of what happened in the past. Now that with Kemi, the worst thing did not happen, which really made the detective put down his suspenseful heart.
McCall, who had a similar experience, knew what would happen if a person closed himself up.
However, having friends is an exception.
While Brian and McCall were chatting in a low voice, John on the side rubbed the top of Daisy's head. Daisy, a bulldog, looked scary, but had an unimaginable degree of clinging, not only rubbing his head He held John's palm, and occasionally turned over his belly, letting John touch his belly. After being scratched a few times, he turned around to rub John's trouser legs.
A smile gradually appeared on John's indifferent face.
The gloomy atmosphere also disappeared.
Every now and then a line would be added to the conversation between Brian and McCall.
"My channel will provide us with a batch of effective weapons in a week's time."
"However, for fully automatic control, we need to program it ourselves."
John said.
"give it to me."
"I'm good at this."
McCall laughed, and then the detective pretended to be mysterious and lowered his voice: "A lot of people have asked me about the 'mystery side', and they want to make sure that what happened last night is true, or that someone is there Layout—in this day and age, it’s really scary! Even what I see with my own eyes, I can’t believe it!”
"This is not surprising. Some time ago, many guys used 'seeing with their own eyes' to make layouts. At the beginning, they made a lot of money, but in the end... a bit terrible."
Brian seemed to have thought of something, and opened his mouth as a funny thing.
"The thing you said was that the last four people only had 'pink knuckles' left?"
McCall recalled, as if impressed.
"Well, that's what happened."
"North District, unfinished buildings, explosions."
Brian reminded McCall, who suddenly remembered it completely.
"Yes! That's it!"
"That's a very professional guy. He didn't leave any clues, and the guys behind the four guys were all killed together. In my channel, the information of this guy was offered a reward of 100,000."
McCall sighed.
John, who was rubbing Daisy, raised his head.
"I made it."
He said lightly.
"Uh?!"
McCall, who was sighing, looked at John with wide eyes as if choked.
Brian was also taken aback.
However, then the two nodded in unison.
"I should have thought of it long ago, the guy in Cherry City who can be called a professional, just the few of us, I didn't do it, and neither did Brian, so it should be you."
McCall patted his forehead even more.
Brian and McCall did not ask why John did this.
The two of them could roughly guess the way John was playing with the dog.
After all, they themselves gathered together for various reasons.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Two minutes before the appointed time, the lock cylinder of the door turned and Jason pushed in.
Jason has always had a good idea of time.
After hanging his thin coat on the hanger at the door, Jason, who changed his slippers, walked directly to the three of them.
"any drinks?"
Brian asked.
"Clear water is fine."
Jason replied, and then sat on the sofa without any barriers.
When Brian handed over the water glass, Jason took a sip and spoke straight.
"I need to ask you something."
"What do you think of what's happening now?"
"Or... do you have any ideas for your future life?"
Jason is very clear that the three people in front of him are 'retirees'.
Although they were forced to take action before, it was a last resort, not an initiative.
Therefore, Jason could not confirm whether the three were willing to accept the inheritance of 'Silver Glory'.
That's right!
When thinking about how to continue the 'Silver Glory', Jason immediately thought of John, Brian, and McCall.
As for randomly looking for a person on the 'Street of Memories' to pass on?
Do not make jokes.
Jason's character makes it impossible for him to do such a ridiculous thing.
However, what Jason knew better was what would happen after accepting the inheritance of 'Silver Glory'.
Some things are 'trouble attractors'.
Including but not limited to unexpected money, extreme fame, etc.
And the inheritance of 'Silver Glory' includes both, and goes far beyond.
Because 'Silver Glory' has long been rooted in the 'mysterious side' of this world.
It is the same name as "Bronze Unyielding", "Golden Wind" and "Indestructible Diamond".
This is doomed to inherit it, and there will be a lot of trouble.
Don't expect, I learn, I can solve it by avoiding.
There is nothing like this in the world!
It's as if you don't enjoy rights, but you don't have to pay for things.
Even if there is such a good thing, it is destined to be temporary. When it comes to a certain point of time, anyone will have to repay the principal with interest.
And, more importantly, troublesome things, the more you avoid it, the more you can't be wrong.
Even worse.
Jason, who lives in the "city that never sleeps", has a deep understanding of this.
He has seen the so-called 'retirees' accidentally get involved in trouble and end up miserably.
Therefore, he had to question the three of John in person.
John, Brian, and McCall looked at each other.
"what happened?"
John asked on behalf of the two.
"I accidentally got the inheritance of 'Silver Glory'. I have read it roughly. This inheritance includes all the basics and some advanced."
"Are you interested?"
Jason explained in detail.
From the standpoint of a friend and a partner fighting side by side, he absolutely did not want the three of them to have an accident.
But John, Brian, and McCall were surprised.
As for the 'mysterious side', the three of them have long been ignorant.
After experiencing 'Edward **', they deeply realized the power and strangeness of the 'mysterious side'.
The three people's thoughts on the "mysterious side" are unprecedentedly consistent: stay away.
They don't want to implicate their family members because of their involvement.
But that was before 'Sabi Star Man' appeared!
When the foreign invaders appeared, the three John's thoughts began to change.
They need more power to protect themselves, their families and friends.
On the existing basis, the 'mystery side' is naturally the first choice.
Just being exposed to the 'mysterious side' and being exposed to the knowledge of the 'mysterious side' are completely two concepts. They are very clear about the value of 'knowledge' in the 'mysterious side'.
So, when John began to choose to arm the 'safe house' with modern weapons, McCall used his channels to search for 'mysterious side' knowledge.
They didn't ask Jason.
Not to mention Delbon.
It's not about pride or self-esteem.
It's just that they know that each organization on the "mysterious side" has its own rules.
Simply put, they didn't want Jason as a friend to be difficult.
As for Delbon?
They simply think each other is unreliable.
A 'mysterious side person' who was frightened by three sword and shield Gatling, a 107mm Type 95 single-barrel rocket launcher, a 20 drone formation, and a self-propelled artillery, really made the three of them very uncomfortable. worried.
However, with the help of Delbon's broken mouth, the three of John knew the 'Glory of Silver' and understood what the 'Glory of Silver' represented.
So, they looked surprised.
"Do we need to take any responsibility?"
McCall was the first to ask, and before the words came out, the detective discovered the inappropriateness, and he began to add: "Besides taking the trouble of 'Silver Glory', do we need to pay anything extra? "
"The person who gave this inheritance to me hopes that I or through my hand will give it to others to continue it. He didn't say any extra effort."
"Moreover, Da Da has given a guarantee that the other party is trustworthy."
Jason understood McCall's concerns and immediately explained.
With the assurance of the old instructor, McCall nodded immediately and looked at Brian and John.
Compared with the unreliable Delbon, the old instructor is undoubtedly much more reliable.
No matter your body or your style.
"My age?"
Brian smiled wryly.
"Age is not a key factor, although most of the 'mystery side' organizations habitually train members from an early age, that's because they need every member to have excellent physical fitness, as well as a corresponding philosophy and... loyalty. "
"And Brian, your physique is strong enough, and so are you, John and McCall."
"Even, in a sense, you represent the limits of ordinary people."
Jason said truthfully.
These are not words of comfort.
In Jason's eyes, John, Brian, and McCall are good at different things, but their physical fitness and skills have really reached the limit of ordinary people, and some are beyond.
What if the three of them came into contact with the knowledge of the 'mysterious side'?
Jason was looking forward to a scene like that.
"When does it begin?"
John asked.
Different from the concerns of Brian and McCall.
The indifferent John simply believed that Jason would not harm him.
His idea is very simple. Since Jason has spoken, Jason must have measured it. There may be some drawbacks, but it will never be fatal.
And that was enough for John.
"When I translate it."
Jason looked at John and smiled. He took out the notebook given by Livia before and opened it in front of the three of them.
The eyes of the three of John focused on it, and the text on it was completely written in pictorial.
But looking at the text above, John and the three could clearly feel a faint attraction.
"Is this the text of the 'mystery side'?"
"It's...well, complicated."
After a pause, McCall described it.
"It's more complicated than I thought."
"However, the typeface is beautiful and has an alternative squiggly feel."
Brian commented.
"The flower body has no special power."
"Where is my room?"
Jason asked with a smile.
Although this is not the first time he has come to the safe house in the suburbs, Jason really doesn't know where his room is.
"follow me."
John patted Daisy on the head, got up from the sofa and walked towards the ground.
The safe house is roughly divided into two parts.
On the ground is the activity area.
The ground floor is the living area.
And deeper is the refuge area.
"Jason, this is your room, the daily necessities are new, and I have moved all the things you left in the 3A apartment, and put them in the original appearance."
John pointed to the penultimate room at the end of the corridor.
"thanks. "
Jason thanked John for his attention.
A smile appeared on John's face, he pointed to the top of his head, and turned away.
The matter of weapons, he still needs to deal with.
Especially after joining the study plan, John felt more and more that time was not enough.
Jason watched John leave before pushing the door in.
As John described, everything was like in the 3A apartment.
After closing the door, Jason took out the notebook, and just as he was about to walk to the desk, a knock on the door suddenly sounded—
Boom, boom, boom!
Outside the door, Kemi was wearing a long pale yellow dress, fluffy hair, slightly red cheeks, and stood there shy and uneasy.
