Chapter 426 The King? Is He Going to Take Action Too?
At this moment.
Beside the shallow lake at the foot of Bear Mountain in the far suburbs of New York.
An old man wearing a brown fisherman's hat is sitting on a folding chair by the lake, holding a long fishing rod in his hand, looking directly at the lake reflecting the blue sky, with a calm expression that seems particularly patient.
The weather is very good, and the sun shines on the lake, making it sparkle.
On the road not far away, there are many New Yorkers who take advantage of the rare good weather to take their children out for a spring outing and picnic.
It must be admitted...compared to the East Asian countries that are so swollen, the people of these Western countries do know how to enjoy life better.
Many people who are outing also noticed...this old man fishing by the lake with a vicissitudes of life.
The most popular fishing methods in the United States are still lure fishing and sea fishing. This kind of platform fishing that cultivates patience and is not eager for quick success is not common, which will undoubtedly make many people curious.
Just when everyone was curious,
A successful man in a pure white suit and shirt, with deep and delicate features, who was out of tune with the surrounding spring outings, adjusted his cuffs while adjusting his coquettish gold-rimmed glasses.
After seeing the old man fishing by the lake, he smiled brightly and walked over slowly without hesitation.
When he walked to the side of the old man fishing.
The successful man seemed to be familiar with the old man, and directly opened the fishing box next to the old man, looked sideways and said with a sigh.
"Teacher."
"Your skills have regressed? How come you can't catch a single fish."
"If it were the past, it would probably take you half an hour to catch a box of big fish, right?"
It was obvious.
The old man fishing was the founder of the poker organization—the professor, and the formally dressed man next to him was the little king—Riley, who had gone to pick up the professor before.
Hearing this.
The professor did not answer immediately, but continued to stare at the center of the lake, where the float was.
Seeing that the professor was unmoved,
Riley shrugged his shoulders in boredom, but did not choose to leave. Instead, he sat down by the rocks by the lake without feeling dirty.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, picked up one and put it in his mouth to light it.
He took a deep puff and blew out several smoke rings skillfully. Suddenly, he noticed... the float in the center of the lake began to tremble violently.
Without any hesitation, Riley quickly bit the cigarette with his back teeth and said incoherently.
"Teacher, the fish is coming."
"Raise the rod quickly, raise the rod quickly."
It seemed that just saying it was not enough. Riley even snatched the fishing rod from the professor and began to pull it up very hard, feeling the struggle of the big fish in his hand.
But it was only less than three seconds.
The trembling in his hand disappeared, leaving only a sense of relief.
Riley gently lifted the fishing rod and found that the fish had indeed run away, but after a more careful look, he found that the end of the fishing rod was not a fishhook, but something like a double-headed nail.
After seeing this thing at the end of the fishing rod.
Riley's face was full of helplessness, and he handed the fishing rod back to the professor and said.
"Teacher."
"What kind of fish are you fishing for? There is not even a fish hook. How can you fish it?"
After taking the fishing rod.
The professor pulled back the fishing line expressionlessly, re-baited the nail, and said slowly.
"Riley, you are anxious."
"If you wait a little longer, maybe this fish will not escape."
Riley took a deep puff of the cigarette in his mouth, and then spoke as if he was talking off topic.
"Yes, teacher."
"I am indeed a little anxious now, or... I find it difficult to calm down at the moment."
"I just received a message from a little guy saying that the boxing gym of No. 9 has been dug up by the group of Dragon Country police."
"If we follow the plan you described to me before, No. 10 should be dug out, but why is No. 9 the first to be found?"
"And judging from the current situation, No. 10 will most likely be dug out soon. Can those little guys deal with this situation?"
"Although I really don't want to care about them, as you said, teacher... if there is a chance to become a larger organization, who would not want to?"
Hearing Riley's words, the professor still looked normal. He hung up the bait and threw the nail back into the lake, and said calmly.
"Trust K."
"Whether No. 9 is found or No. 10 is found, it makes no difference."
"In his plan, those children were bait, bait thrown out to let the dogs smell the scent and fall into the trap."
"Now it's just one bait, or two baits."
"I think... K is ready."
Riley took another irritable puff of cigarette, exhaled the thick smoke, and continued.
"Teacher, this is not a question of whether to believe or not."
"I know K's talent. If I didn't think he was a promising talent, how could I take the initiative to provide him with those high-purity drugs?"
"But the key now is... the industries you prepared for those little guys are being dug out one by one, and once someone is caught, our entire organization will be in crisis."
"We can't fail..."
At this moment.
The professor suddenly turned to look at Riley, his vicissitudes eyes showed no emotion, then shook his head and looked at the float, and said.
"No, Riley."
"We can fail now, it's nothing more than adjusting and trying again."
"Failure now... is better than failing after everyone grows up, which makes me more relieved."
"After all, if they all grow up and still fail, it proves that I am really on the wrong path."
"Now this crisis, if they survive, then I think... no one can stop our poker organization, understand?"
"As for the thing you are worried about, don't think too much."
"Even if K can't satisfy me, even if someone is caught, the group of guests who came from Longguo will not be able to get any clues, and someone will help to cover the bottom."
"Just like you now, because you are worried about those little guys and come to ask me."
Hearing this.
Riley was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and said slowly.
"Teacher, it seems he has been here too?"
"Since he has started to pay attention to this matter, I feel relieved."
After throwing the cigarette in his hand to the ground and crushing it with his feet, Riley's face returned to the previous bright smile.
"Let's go, teacher."
"I'm going to do other things, and by the way, see if those little guys ask me for help."
"By the way, I hope you can catch a big fish today."
After saying that.
Riley turned around and left without hesitation, and the professor did not look back at all, just staring at the floating float that was shaking constantly.
It took dozens of seconds.
When the entire float was pulled into the water, the professor suddenly raised the fishing rod.
On the weird fish hook, or double-headed nail, there was a struggling big-mouthed bass with holes on both lips...
