Chapter 144 Occupying the Dove’s Nest
……
Not far from the meeting in Nepal, in a sewage ditch, Sirul, bruised and swollen and groaning, was thrown into the ditch by several people like garbage.
"I'll go to you!"
"Pooh!"
The group of men cursed and spat several times on the wriggling "tiger" in the ditch before leaving.
Xilu was in excruciating pain all over his body, as if he had been run over by a car. Nicanhui was somewhat careful in his approach; despite how badly he was beaten, if a medical examination were conducted, it would at most be considered a minor injury, and he might even get another beating in the end.
Xilu was both wronged and furious, his teeth itching with hatred. After all, he didn't dare to confront the Ni Canhui head-on, and they couldn't defeat the Ni Canhui either, nor could they use the organization to teach the Ni Canhui a lesson. He was utterly helpless at the moment.
Even Nozawa might not help him.
Xilu finally reached out to his body to call someone to pick him up, but after searching through all his pockets, he couldn't find a cell phone.
Without a doubt, Nican must have taken the phone while he was unconscious.
Xilu angrily cursed the mysterious people who attended the meeting and extorted him in his heart.
However, no sooner had he finished cursing than a faint sound of footsteps came from the road beside him. Xilu looked over curiously—
It turned out that the visitor was Jundu, whom he had met at a symposium a few years ago. Although the child Jundu was a little different from the one from that time, Xilu still recognized him.
Before Xilu could speak, Bai Yexiu spoke first with a smile:
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Hillu from the higher-ups? How come you're all bruised and battered and have fallen into a ditch?"
A single, sarcastic remark further angered Xilu.
“You…” Xilu almost gritted his teeth, but couldn’t utter a single word.
"Oh dear~ Did you offend someone?" Bai Yexiu's light words once again launched a barbed attack on Xilu.
"Tomorrow is going to be our late-night chat, Mr. Siru must be having a hard time if he's injured. He should probably go to the hospital as soon as possible."
“…” Xilu was speechless.
"Oh right, I almost forgot, you recently lost a lot of money, you must be afraid to spend it, right? You're welcome, this is my charity to you." Bai Yexiu picked up the two large boxes in his hands as if showing off, then took out a wad of money from them and threw it at Xilu's head from a distance, like throwing away trash, and it fell to the side of his hand.
Xilu was stunned.
He then noticed the two conspicuous large boxes that Bai Yexiu was carrying, but he quickly realized a problem.
"Wait? How did you know I recently lost a lot of money?!" Xilu was shocked and tried to get up, but because of the extreme pain in his body, he could only wriggle up with difficulty in the ditch.
This road is the only way to the meeting point in Niger, and the two large boxes of money in Coindus's possession, as well as that suspicious detail from earlier...
A shocking conjecture formed in Sirul's mind.
However, he had no clear evidence that Cointreau was the mysterious person who blackmailed him.
"How would I know?" Bai Yexiu smiled mysteriously at Xilu without answering. He picked up the money and walked away in the direction of the Nican meeting base without looking back, leaving Xilu alone in the wind, bewildered.
……
One of his men suddenly entered Takatsukasa's office.
"Lord Takatsukasa, there is someone outside who wants to see you and says he has something he wants to talk to you about."
"?" Takatsukasa, who was working on documents at his desk, looked up, his wary and scheming eyes narrowing slightly behind his half-rimmed glasses.
"What does it look like?"
"It was a sickly-looking boy carrying two large boxes."
"Let him in." Takatsukasa pondered for a moment, then a smile of interest appeared on his lips.
Gu Dao, who had remained silent until now, suddenly shuddered upon hearing his subordinate's description.
"Wait, Boss Takatsukasa, this isn't the one I told you about..." Koto stood up in fright, but Takatsukasa just smiled and calmly gestured for Koto to be quiet.
——The reception room at the Nepal conference base——
Bai Yexiu and Ying Si sat facing each other on the sofa. Gu Dao, standing next to Bai Yexiu, stared at him with hostility and vigilance, as if afraid that the dangerous young man in front of him would suddenly explode.
"Aren't you that assassin? What are you doing here?" Gu Dao asked warily first.
"I'm here to apologize."
Bai Yexiu lifted the two large boxes at his feet onto the table and reached out to open them—
There were two large boxes full of money.
“This…” Gu Dao was stunned.
"Actually, I am a member of the organization. Xilu gave me a huge sum of money and wanted me to kill you. Later, I felt something was wrong and found out that you were actually Ni's participants. That's when I realized that Xilu wanted us to suffer mutual destruction."
As Bai Yexiu spoke, he feigned a somewhat resentful expression: "That Xilu didn't like me and wanted to take this opportunity to kill me. If I hadn't been careful to bring an extra person with me, I'm afraid I would have been surrounded and killed by your group long ago."
“But…” Gu Dao’s expression suddenly changed. He was about to say something when Takatsukasa raised his hand and made a gesture to interrupt him.
Gu Dao recalled the scene at the tavern, his heart filled with mixed emotions—this young man didn't seem like the type to be easily killed by a group of them...
"These two boxes are my apology gifts, containing my compensation and the medical expenses for your wounded soldiers. I hope you will be lenient, Mr. Ni." Bai Yexiu smiled and pushed the two boxes in front of Ying Si.
The two boxes were full of banknotes and checks, which was more than the two boxes that Sirus had given them before.
“Kid,” Takatsukasa’s lips curled slightly as he adjusted his half-rimmed glasses, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes behind the lenses, “I’m afraid your purpose is more than just this.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Yexiu's smile widened, and his amber eyes seemed to become even more profound and captivating under the influence of pleasure.
"I just like doing business with smart people."
Bai Yexiu laughed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Takatsukasa and Shiroya looked into each other's eyes in tacit understanding. A few seconds later, Takatsukasa asked.
"Since you are part of the organization, can you change the amount that our Niger Participants Association has to submit to the organization each month?"
"No problem. You can even transfer to my command without paying a single penny. Of course, the price is that you will obey my orders, we will split the profits 50/50, and I can give you a higher position."
Gu Dao was deeply shocked.
This is so much better than working for Xilu and Nozawa before!
Those two guys not only made them do things that risked being wiped out, but they only got 4% of the profits. If it weren't for the fact that those two guys could reduce their monthly payments by half, they wouldn't have worked for them.
Now, an even better offer has been extended to them.
Takatsukasa and Byakuya exchanged a smile.
"Pleasant to work with."
"Pleasant to work with."
