Hunting Game [Interstellar]

Chapter 53 [Leader's self-cultivation]

At midnight that night, in District [-], Shipwreck Bar.

The door of the single room at the deepest part of the corridor was pushed open, and the nicotine and alcohol permeating the room finally found an exit, and swarmed out with a "hula".Su Xingchuan put on a mask, but he was still choked by the terrible mixed smell. When he walked in, he saw Mr. Star Robber lying on the wooden dining table with his whole face buried in his arms. He seemed quite drunk.

Su Shichuan withdrew his gaze, walked to the opposite sofa to sit down, and ordered lightly: "Wake up."

Cang Xingyun, who was following behind, closed the door with his backhand, and walked towards the target as he said.

Just then, the clump on the table moved, and McGregor ran a hand through his tangled hair and tilted his head to one side.He squinted his drunken eyes and looked at the man opposite, and joked with a smile: "I thought we were old friends who had a good time working together, but I didn't expect Mr. Crow to be so ruthless."

"There is only a shady money transaction between us," Su Shichuan corrected softly, his voice was muffled by the mask, but there was a trace of a clearly detectable smile in it, "Long time no see, how is the business recently?" Sample?"

"So-so, but with you taking care of me, even if I stay idle for a few months, I won't starve to death." McGregor got up, leaned back on the sofa, touched the pocket of the buckskin coat with his palm, and did not hesitate. Without seeing anything, he said, "Is there any smoke?"

Su Xingchuan didn't speak, Cang Xingyun came out from the corner of the private room, put the cigarette case on the table, pushed it towards McGregor, and then retreated back silently.

McGregor took out one and lit it, and squinted his eyes comfortably as he smoked. He raised his eyes and glanced at the assassin hidden behind the shadows. His dark brown eyes showed a bit of joking: "The black market has been discussing, saying After Ban Shark escaped from prison, he hasn’t received a single business, and he doesn’t know whether it’s life or death.” He looked at Su Shichuan again, “You are very powerful, you can make such an assassin who is alone in his life wholeheartedly work for you.”

"He," Su Shichuan crossed his long legs, squinted at Cang Xingyun from the corner of his eye, and answered with a half-smile, "he was disobedient at first."

Cang Xingyun: "..."

If it weren't for being beaten by a dog, Mr. Assassin silently cursed in his heart, and really wanted to throw him into the sea again.

At the deck, the greetings were over, and the two got back to business.

McGregor put out the cigarette butt on the table, cleared his throat, and said straight to the point: "What do you want this time?"

"I need a starship. It doesn't need to be too big, but it must have the basic long-distance transition function, and it is best to carry heavy firepower weapons." Su Shichuan said.

McGregor was surprised when he heard the words, and couldn't help laughing after a while: "Do you think I am omnipotent and can get anything?"

Su Shichuan thought for a while, and answered this question very seriously: "So far, Mr. Mike has never disappointed me."

McGregor still smiled and said: "In the past year, you have purchased hundreds of materials from me, large and small. I have paid attention to the things you need. As long as you have a mechanic under your command, these are enough for you to build two or three machines. It's time for me." He smoked another cigarette, "Excuse me, what exactly is Mr. Crow planning?"

"The purpose of the organization can only be revealed to our own people," Su Shichuan looked into his eyes and smiled leisurely, "Or is Mr. Mike interested in joining us?"

McGregor didn't answer. He remained silent for a few seconds, and said frankly: "The starship is definitely not available, but the materials are."

"I don't have enough time, and I don't need materials." Su Shichuan said.

McGregor smoked silently, and the silence was quite long this time.Su Shichuan waited patiently, without urging him at all.

I don't know how long it took before McGregor looked up at him again, and said, "If you don't mind, I have a small spaceship for cargo, which can satisfy medium and long-distance transitions, but it's slower, but it's not what you want. The high-powered weapons you need cannot fight."

Su Shichuan pondered for a moment, then said cautiously: "Yes, you can make a price."

"It's not for sale, but it can be lent to you, but there are two conditions." McGregor said.

Su Shichuan: "Speak out, I'll listen first."

"First, it sounds like you are going to a place far away. I can lend you my spaceship, but I must drive it."

"This is no problem." Su Shichuan said.

"Second point," Mr. Star Thief grinned with a mischievous smile, "I want to see your face."

As soon as these words came out, Cang Xingyun took two steps forward threateningly, Su Xingchuan stopped him with his hands, and the eyes he looked at McGregor became playful.

"Why?" he asked.

"You always remind me of someone." McGregor said generously without hiding anything, "It was probably last winter, and it was also this tavern, but it was just outside. That little bitch hooked me up." He said Licking between his teeth, he seemed unsatisfied, and recalled, "I didn't see what my identity was at the time, I just thought it would be a good night's sleep, but he stabbed me unconscious in the bathroom and cut my shark oil."

Su Shichuan: "..."

Cang Xingyun silently glanced at his boss, and thought to himself, no wonder he was familiar with the road when looking for someone, it turned out that he had already overshadowed him.

"How?" McGregor raised his chin frivolously, "Only these two conditions."

Su Shichuan was a little dumbfounded, it was just a whim at the beginning, firstly he wanted to tease Xifa, secondly because he really fell in love with the bottle of shark oil.During the probing process, he also noticed that the star thief was not an ordinary liar, so the ordinary techniques were not very effective. In the end, he had no choice but to use the simplest and rude one, but he did not expect that this matter would be remembered by the other party until now.

"It's not impossible." Su Shichuan suppressed his smile and pretended to be calm, "It's just that people who know my identity are working under me. You are an outsider, how can you guarantee that you will not reveal things that should not be revealed go out?"

"It's a businessman's cardinal rule not to reveal the identity of the customer," McGregor said. "Otherwise you'd probably be in the hands of the military, wouldn't you?"

Su Shichuan smiled and said: "That's different. The military department caught the crow, and the military department caught the person under the crow's mask. These are two completely different concepts."

"It seems that your real identity is very sensitive and cannot be easily known by the military?" McGregor said with blood.

"The person who wears a disguise has his reasons," Su Shichuan said, "and you should also understand that with an extra identity, many things will be much easier to do."

McGregor smiled and waved his hands, and said straightforwardly: "We won't talk about the truth, just one sentence, will it work?"

"Yes." Su Shichuan said without thinking.

Cang Xingyun was startled when he heard that, and reminded in a low voice: "Are you sure?"

Su Shichuan nodded slowly, and said to McGregor: "But I hope the timing can be decided by me."

"Why should I believe that you will fulfill your promise?" McGregor said.

"There are two reasons." Su Shichuan said unhurriedly, "First, we have been cooperating for a full year, and during this period, I have never done anything to lower my credibility."

McGregor smiled nonchalantly.

Su Shichuan was even more indifferent than him: "Secondly, you have revealed the news that you have a spaceship. As an organization that does whatever it takes to achieve its goals, I personally think you have reason to believe that killing people for money is more important to us. Safe cooperation is more commonplace, right?"

Mr. Star Thief stopped laughing.

"Xingyun," Su Shichuan put his arm on the dining table, tapped the table with his index finger one after another, and asked casually, "If you accept the task of killing people and stealing goods, how long will it take from following the target to finally attacking?"

"Three days," Cang Xingyun said, "It will be even shorter for targets that have been in contact with before."

McGregor's heart "thumped", and his eyes wandered back and forth between the two guys who were blatantly calculating him.

"Then if it's torture on the spot, what about the whereabouts of the shipped goods?" Su Shichuan asked again.

"I've never done torture before." Mr. Assassin frowned in confusion, "I usually kill people directly."

McGregor: "..."

"This is not a good habit." Su Shichuan stopped tapping his fingers on the table, and looked at McGregor with a smile all over his eyes, "I will teach you another day how to get real information from people who think they are tight-lipped. "

"Okay, okay," Mr. Star Pirates has been cheating and abducting for many years. He has long developed a shrewd character of accepting when he sees a good deal. , said, "Just as you said, when you use it and where you go, you have to tell it in advance, is that okay?"

"Thank you for your cooperation." Su Shichuan said politely.

The corners of McGregor's mouth twitched, and he said to himself, this man's pious tricks are really slippery, and he doesn't know who threatened me just now...

After the main cooperation was negotiated, Su Shichuan ordered a batch of mecha production materials from McGregor. Seeing that the time was almost up, he got up first and took Cang Xingyun to leave the Shipwreck Tavern through the back door.

As usual, the two chose a secluded dark alley. After walking far away, one took off his mask and the other put on his hood.

"It's too risky," Cang Xingyun finally said, "That man is a gangster, you shouldn't let him know your identity."

Su Shichuan said: "Your thinking makes sense, but have you ever thought about why he would mention those two conditions?"

Cang Xingyun was unknown, so he habitually kept silent.

Su Shichuan explained: "Whether it is asking to drive the spaceship himself or asking to see my face, there is actually only one purpose for these two things - he wants to get close to us."

"'Driving himself' means directly participating in our operations, and 'look at my face' means he wants to know who I am. McGregor is doing smuggling, so he must understand the law of the jungle in the dark world. He clearly understands the truth that the more he knows, the more dangerous he is, but it is obvious that he committed the crime knowingly."

"Why?" Cang Xingyun still didn't want to understand.

"I guess..." Su Shichuan looked at him sideways, "The star thief is interested in us, so he wants to take this opportunity to join in."

Cang Xingyun was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "It turned out to be—" Before he finished speaking, his voice stopped abruptly, and then he met Su Shichuan's eyes with great uncertainty, "Could it be...you already knew There will be such a day, so he was chosen as our trading partner in the first place?"

Su Shichuan opened his eyes slightly in feigning surprise, and said with a smile, "You know me better and better."

Cang Xingyun: "..."

It's too much, it's not counting to seduce people and cut rare goods, but they have planned for a long time to lure them into the organization to work as free labor. How can there be such a scheming person in the world?

When Cang Xingyun thought that the star thief was about to supply goods for free, but was still beating around the bush without knowing it, he immediately felt a little sympathetic to him.

There is a kind of misfortune in this world called "meeting Su Shichuan", Mr. Assassin thought to himself, no, he corrected his positioning in his heart, it should be called "being seen by Su Shichuan".

Sympathy for everyone in the organization...

The two walked to the parking place, Su Shichuan unlocked the suspension car, and said to Cang Xingyun, "I'll take you back."

"No need," Cang Xingyun was still struggling in his heart, but looked at him calmly, "I'll just go back by myself."

Su Shichuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "You are an S-rank wanted criminal, and you are not afraid of being met by others at night?"

Cang Xingyun said expressionlessly: "If I was caught so easily, would you still want me?"

"It's true." Su Shichuan said deeply.

Cang Xingyun: "..."

"Then I'll go first," Su Shichuan got into the car, lowered the window and told him, "During the time I'm back at the military academy, besides the things that have been arranged, you will also help take care of the theater. Seventeen's temper A little childish, it may be a system problem, if he bullies you, you..." Su Shichuan felt that this kind of thing was too low-level, but it was difficult to express it.

"It's nothing," Cang Xingyun said, "I won't care about non-human beings."

Su Shichuan couldn't help laughing: "Thank you for your hard work." He paused, "Then that's it for tonight?"

"Be careful." After saying that, Cang Xingyun was very tired and found that although he knew Su Shichuan's nature, he said this from the bottom of his heart - he didn't want to see him get hurt in an accident, and he didn't want to be caught in the middle of the night by the witch. Knock on the door.

He's used to following that man's orders, how should he say it?It is also licking blood with the tip of a knife, and it is also shady, but his order will make people feel safe, which is incredible.There is no doubt that Su Shichuan is an unscrupulous strategist, but at the same time, no one can deny that he is an impeccable leader.

Cang Xingyun sighed in his heart, and added: "Contact me anytime if you need anything."

"Understood." Su Shichuan smiled at him and raised the window.

The engine started, and the hover car drove away in the dark of night, leaving Mr. Assassin alone, silently thinking why he cared so much about a bastard who had cheated him?

A week later, the Imperial Military Academy.

The aircraft arrived early in the morning, and Su Shichuan was in a good mood. He gave the students a whole morning off, asked them to organize their personal belongings, and catch up on sleep by the way.

At [-] o'clock in the afternoon, the special warfare majors assembled at the No. [-] underground training ground.

This is an indoor training ground, covering an area of ​​hundreds of square meters. The interior completely reproduces the tropical rainforest landscape. The artificial sunlight is bright and dazzling, the temperature is constant at [-] degrees, the vegetation is lush, and there are streams and swamps. Wild animals for special training on the theme of "sneak attack and concealment".

The head teacher didn't show up, and Aning felt comfortable physically and mentally, calling the students to gather in the rest area outside.

After the unexpected military exercise last year, the vacation of the military academy has been postponed until now. It stands to reason that basic training should be arranged after the blank period of several months to help the students recover their physical fitness. However, Aning received an email from Su Shichuan the first night and specially designated The reason for this afternoon's special training is: entertainment is the main thing, let the students relax.

Ah Ning smelled a conspiracy through the screen, but obediently agreed.

Ten people in the special warfare major changed to nine people. After the assembly was completed, Aning first explained the reason why Song Xiao was not there. Temporarily suspending school and going home to recuperate, the resumption time is to be determined.

However, before he could explain today's training rules, the door of the lounge opened, and an assistant ran in and whispered into his ear, "Here comes the head coach."

Aning: "..."

Aning said I knew it!When you say it, it becomes: "I'm there, do you want me to pick it up?"

After the words fell, Su Shichuan walked in, dressed in a jungle combat uniform: "The composition is ready?"

"It's all over..." Aning reported weakly, and handed the tablet optical brain to Su Shichuan.

The nine professionals were divided into two groups according to the odd and even numbers of their rankings in the last combat assessment. Su Shichuan lowered his eyes to check the list of personnel. After a while, he ordered: "You go to the group with five people. I will take four people. Now explain the rules, get ready in 10 minutes, and officially start at 02:30." After speaking, he returned the optical brain to Aning, walked to the audience, and took a seat in the last row.

When Ah Ning thought that there was Su Shichuan on the opposite side, he was in a bad mood. Is this still a special training?No matter how you look at it, he was beaten unilaterally!

"The rules are like this," Aning breathed a sigh of relief, adjusted his mood, and said, "We now have two action groups of five people and six people. The group with the most people must choose a 'hostage' exchange To the other party, the 'hostage' is the target of this special training."

"According to Sujiao's final assignment, the group I lead provides 'hostages' and performs rescue tasks, while the group led by Sujiao kidnaps 'hostages' and performs guarding tasks. The location of the 'hostages' is fixed and cannot be moved at will." He turned on the holographic projection and marked the position indicated by the red arrow in the center of the field, "It is timed for two hours. During this period, if the rescue team successfully saves the target, it will be considered a victory. The defense team needs to defend for two hours, or 'solve' all rescues members of the group."

He looked up at everyone present: "Are there any questions?"

Seeing that no one asked questions, Aning pressed the communicator, and then said: "Students who have received the message come to my side to gather, and the rest go to teach Su."

After he finished speaking, the students consciously separated and walked back and forth towards the lounge.

On Su Shichuan's side are four students who only know their names and grades, and the two who are relatively familiar are assigned to Aning's side: "This is the first time we cooperate," Su Shichuan said with a smile on his face, "My plan is very simple. You are responsible for hiding near the 'hostage' to protect his safety, and I am responsible for finding out the approaching enemies, understand?"

At this time, the rescue team had already selected a "hostage", and the assistant instructor brought a short girl in front of Su Shichuan and said, "The hostages are in place, Teacher Su, I will send you to the central area, so we can do it in advance." Prepare."

Su Shichuan confirmed the time, nodded and said: "Okay."

As the guard team left, Aning breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the remaining four.In addition to Xifa and Austin, there are two other students, a boy and a girl. The boy's name is Taylor, the fifth in major, and the girl's name is Helen, seventh in major. The way they choose 'hostages' is very realistic, and the student with the worst grade Need to wait to be rescued.

Aning: "This kind of special training is a traditional 'entertainment' of special tactics. Generally speaking, the rescue team is easier. After all, we have mastered the rhythm of the attack, and the task is only 'hostage rescue'. What do you think? It can be said."

"The head teacher is on the opposite side," Austin said, "He is the most troublesome and needs to be distracted as much as possible, otherwise we will not be able to get close to the 'hostage'."

"Actually, I really want to fight him." Xifa said, "I go?"

Austin looked dignified, remained silent for a few seconds, and said, "I want to go too."

Aning said that you really don't know him at all, and reminded weakly: "But the task is..."

This weak rebuttal was directly ignored, and the other four quickly reached an agreement. Austin summed up the opinions of several people and said to Aning: "Actually, our plan is also very simple. Since the chief teacher is the most troublesome one, then we Let's get rid of him first, and then formally enter the special training to rescue the target 'hostage'."

This plan sounds very reasonable. It can be said that it makes full use of the innate initiative of the rescue team. Aning has nothing to say, but silently doubts the winning rate of the "five-for-one" in his heart. The group is destroyed!

Of course, as the instructor of the rescue team, the idea of ​​affecting the atmosphere in this way must not be expressed.Moreover, Aning had never had a formal fight with Su Shichuan, nor had he seen Su Shichuan fight in public, but after hearing Feng Chen mention a few words, he was more or less curious about the strength of the other party.

At the same time, the guard team that had arrived deep in the rainforest began to fix the hostages. Su Shichuan personally instructed the students to tie a knot that became tighter and tighter as they struggled, and asked them to find hidden locations by themselves, and then commented on the selected locations one by one. The advantages and disadvantages of the system should be corrected.

"Why do you act alone," someone questioned, "isn't this project an investigation of teamwork?"

"Generally speaking, it is indeed the cooperation of the investigation team," Su Shichuan looked at him with a smile, "but the children in the guard team must have a way of thinking. They want to give priority to eliminating me, and then concentrate on rescuing the hostages."

The student suddenly showed a clear expression, then hesitated after a while and said: "But after all, there are five people on the opposite side, and the teaching assistant is also there. If you are alone... will there be any problems?"

"It's hard to say," Su Shichuan replied truthfully, "I don't know Aning's strength, it may be difficult to beat him."

student:"???"

The author has something to say: I really couldn't sleep after reading your comments last night, so I wrote these words overnight, I hope those girls who haven't understood will understand soon.

First of all, it must be said that this is a novel with a plot flow, and I can be regarded as the main writer of the plot flow. The style is basically fixed, that is, everything serves the plot, whether it is the character setting or the relationship between the characters. emotion.

Regarding the position of the agent, I emphasized it in Chapter 1. Girls who have doubts must go back and have a look. It’s not that there are no three views, it’s just that you pay attention to things like respect, that’s what you have to choose!Love in this world is divided into big love and small love. Two people who are passionately in love only have each other's little love in their eyes. Do you think there is only one Xifa in Shi Chuan's eyes?

It is true that he put Xifa in a crucial position, but he was ordered to come back, and he still bears the fate of the empire on his body. This is the focus of this article! ! !If there is no restoration of the country, no interlocking conspiracies, if Su Shichuan is not scheming for the sake of love, then he is not a multi-agent, and he is not the protagonist I created by spending brain cells to conspire and plot.The absolute high IQ and strength I gave him was not to make him come back and fall in love foolishly. Love is only a part of this book, and the plot flow will always be based on the plot.

There are so many chapters about Xifa. Xifa’s double Q is also online. He loves Shichuan deeply and at the same time doubts him. This shows that he is also a person who has not been dazzled by love. How can such a person be a puppet? ?I wrote the word "puppet" because Rex wanted Xifa to be his legitimate reason to attack the empire, but Xifa saw it!I wrote it clearly, and he didn't agree!As for the empire, I remember girls talking about Xifa pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger from time to time. This feeling is right!As early as Chapter 10, when Su Shichuan returned to school early, Connor hinted that "the imperial family only needs a prince who shines", what does this mean? Low-key is safe, high-key will die!Xifa is well versed in this truth, so I have permeated the concept of not being a bird with a head ← for several chapters.

I wrote the copywriting of this book very early, at least two or three years ago. After reading "The Pretender", I especially liked the theme of secret agents. I strongly recommend you to read it. It's war drama.Among them, the prototype of the role of Minglou is Yuan Shu, a particularly famous agent of the CCP, and a real five-fold agent.

The world of secret agents is really cruel. It is not two young people who fall in love. Love cannot save people, let alone restore the country.

Shi Chuan's team has been formed, and you guys like the supporting roles, but think about it, when everyone came in, they relied on skillful coercion and lures!Cang Xingyun was threatened once in the death row under the sea, and at the royal dinner, Shi Chuan exchanged his lifelong allegiance on the grounds of rescuing Jiyue; Yunus was kidnapped first, and then persuaded based on his understanding of the predecessor of the plan; Li asked Su Shichuan to let her go, Su Shichuan didn't agree immediately, but asked her to prove her worth; Jiyue was even more like this, Shichuan obviously lacked people, but what she said was "Your ability is not enough to make you I take the initiative to leave you behind"...

Su Shichuan is such a person, or this is the agent in my heart, so don't have such naive thoughts, there is a good saying-"The time you feel is quiet and beautiful, in fact, someone is doing it for you Moving forward with a heavy burden", I used it as - "The reason why someone can live in peace and trouble is because there are other people who are carrying the darkness for him".

The method of restoring the country I think is indeed extreme, but you must know that this is a huge gap between the country and the individual, and it cannot be solved by "becoming stronger" in Western law, so it is necessary to borrow the power of another party that rivals the empire Back from the attack, although I wrote Su Shuangwen, I still have to follow the basic law and logic.And Su Shichuan's character design is like this, I just want him to do everything earth-shattering, otherwise I can't be this character design.

I feel that your entanglement is too small. Whether it is top secret or zero hour, the protagonist’s struggle is actually for himself, but this is for the country. I am trying to improve the vision of the protagonist Su Shichuan. I really don’t want to Don't be entangled in personal gains and losses and feelings.If Su Shichuan really told Xifa his plan regardless of the consequences in order to "respect" Xifa, then if Xifa was a mentally retarded person who was dazzled by love, he might agree to treason, but he was not.And Su Shichuan is also not the kind of person who doesn't think about the consequences, he will take into account Xifa's disbelief and disagreement, so he can only choose the foolproof method.
