I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 746 The Three Little Ones (55)

Leslie and his three companions departed from Lion Bay in Gruson and embarked on a three-day sea voyage.

Although the facilities on the ANITA were very complete, it was still a very tough journey.

After all, not everyone has Liu Jin's physique. He can sail a boat, pick up girls, and effortlessly fend off a wave of illegal immigrants.

Even the youngest celestial being felt tired after dinner.

She and Maggie went upstairs to sleep, staying in the room next to Mia's.

Liu Jin and the other two didn't bother to clean up the mess on the table; a housekeeping company would come to clean it up early the next morning.

The three of them, carrying a bottle of whiskey, sat on the sea-view terrace chatting.

Old Jiang had a lot to complain about, and he talked on and on.

He returned to China on the 24th; after all, he has a family and can't stay abroad for too long.

He's been away for almost a month now, and if he doesn't go back soon, things might get messy back home.

Liu Jin expressed his understanding.

Leslie then started talking about Hong Kong Island.

He spent half of this year on Hong Kong Island and gained a deep understanding of the experience.

"Old Liu, aren't you planning to go back to China?"

Old Jiang suddenly asked, "We can't just keep drifting around outside, can we?"

"Going back is fine, drifting is good too."

I'll go back whenever I'm tired. While I still have the energy, I'll explore and cause as much trouble as possible. This world is so wonderful and interesting; I haven't had enough fun yet.

I reckon someone asked Lao Jiang to sound him out.

After Liu Jin answered, Lao Jiang didn't say anything more.

"Amos, what are your plans for next year?"

"I have a lot of plans... a lot to write."

"I mean, aren't you planning to make your own film?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jin immediately waved his hand.

"Forget it, I'm not cut out for that."

"Actually, I feel that some of your novels have a particularly strong sense of imagery. Why don't you try to explore that? Maybe you have a talent for it?"

"I'm so tired!"

Liu Jin poured Leslie a little more wine and said with a smile, "What, you have an idea now?"

"I don't really have any particular ideas, but I suddenly feel like I've lost all hope."

Are you depressed?

"Bullshit, it's just..."

After a moment of silence, Leslie Cheung said, "I just feel like I have nothing to do."

He was never short of money.

Next year, there will be no need to worry about money anymore.

Sing some songs, and wander around.

When you're free, chat with some friends, have a drink...

It's fine for a day or two, or even a year or two, but if it's always like this, he's starting to get a little bored!
The initial enthusiasm for sightseeing will eventually fade, and then what?

He's only 52; he can't stay like this forever.

So, I'm feeling a bit restless and want to get moving!

Liu Jin thought for a moment and then smiled and said, "Let's see. If there's an opportunity, let's find something to do together."

"Then it's settled!"

Leslie's eyes lit up again.

……

The lights in the villa were turned off.

Little did Liu Jin know that two men wearing hoodies and jeans were loitering outside the Salerno yacht marina.

The shops outside the dock all closed as soon as it got dark.

The entrance to the dock was also tightly closed.

It was deserted and quiet; not a single person was in sight.

The man in the green hoodie spoke in heavily accented Arabic: "Do you see that yacht?"

He stood on the seawall and pointed to a conspicuous yacht in the distance.

"The new yacht that just entered the port today is said to be worth 13 million euros."

"very beautiful!"

"The ship owner is an Asian. I've inquired and found out he's Chinese. I think he's a writer."

"What money can a writer possibly have?"

“Writers without money can’t afford this kind of yacht, let alone live in Sun Stone Bay.”

My companion was a Black man wearing a black hoodie.

If you don't speak, you'd never guess there's someone standing here.

"what do you want?"

"The Chinese are very rich, but also very cowardly and easy to bully."

"so what?"

"Boss Alar will be coming from Morocco in a while, and he'll be bringing a bunch of brothers with him."

"We'll pull off a heist... Chinese people carry a lot of cash, even more than they do in banks. I met an old guy in the Netherlands before; his house was piled high with cash. We can do it, and we can also help Boss Alar with his funding problems. I'm sure Boss Alar will agree with my idea."

“Sunstone Bay…that’s Salerno’s rich neighborhood.”

"Let's not go up the mountain. The Chinese man lives at the foot of the mountain, and there's a private beach there."

We'll launch an attack from the sea, storm onto the beach, break into his house, rob him of his money, and leave without bothering anyone else.

Those rich people are actually quite timid!

"At sea? This area is under the jurisdiction of the Sunstone Bay Police Department. Those bastards are well-equipped, with patrol boats and speedboats. It's not easy to get close to them when they patrol this area."

"Brother, since I've made this suggestion, I must have a solution."

"Alright then, I'll talk to Boss Alar about this. You can stay here and observe for a while longer, and try to find out the situation at that Chinese family's home."

"Is there really that much cash?"

"I understand Chinese people, brother, don't worry."

The two then stopped talking.

They stood on the seawall, finished a cigarette, then turned and left, disappearing into the vast night.

……

The next day, Melissa, accompanied by a cameraman, appeared at Liu Jin's home.

However, since Liu Jin had guests at home, she couldn't be too unrestrained. After touring Liu Jin's new residence, Melissa boarded the yacht.

We originally planned to go out to sea, but it suddenly started raining.

Everyone was a bit disappointed, so they had no choice but to head back home.

When passing by Dimarco's gun shop, I found the door locked.

This guy drove that California to Naples...

I reckon he'll be spending Christmas there, and it's unlikely he'll be back before Christmas.

Liu Jin had no choice but to lead everyone back to Taiyangshiwan.

I need to buy another car!

The 599 GTO is nice, but it can only carry two people.

It becomes especially inconvenient when there are many people.

It's not even as convenient as the assistant's Cooper.

With Christmas just around the corner, Melissa didn't want to stay in Salerno for too long, so she left in a hurry the day after completing the interview.

Salerno was already enveloped in an early Christmas atmosphere.

Unfortunately, it didn't snow in southern Italy, which was a bit of a disappointment.

On the 24th, Liu Jin drove Lao Jiang to Rome, and then he took a plane back to the capital.

I called Mara and Meloni, but neither of them were available.

Prime Minister Benítez is visiting Brussels, Belgium, with a large delegation.

Mara and Meloni, one a representative for youth affairs and the other for cultural heritage, are also important members of this delegation.

Once you enter politics, you often find yourself without control over your own destiny.

Sure enough, Chloe and Méra came to Salerno from Paris.

Because Secretary General Manion and his wife were visiting Denmark in their capacity as members of the National Assembly.

Chloe's older siblings are all busy.

Before Secretary General Manion was the Secretary General, he would let them go home to reunite with their families every Christmas.

But now...

Chloe and Mela arrived in Salerno looking unhappy.

However, they brought three little ones with them: Julie and Adrian's son and grandson.

The three puppies have all grown up and, under Gabriel Theo's training, have become three qualified patrol dogs.

They were named Leon, Fanny, and Augustine, respectively.

Among them, Augustine was the grandson of the dog, with shiny and smooth fur, very robust, a size larger than Adrian, and vaguely resembling a large dog.

The arrival of the three little ones made the villa even more lively!

Five large dogs frolicking on the lawn brought Liu Jin a sense of peace.

“Amos, when I was playing with Augustine on the beach just now, I saw a ship in the sea.”

The fairy returned to her room and spoke to Liu Jin.

"It's normal to have boats here, this is the seaside."

"But that ship has been stuck at sea for over an hour."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jin frowned.

He thought for a moment and said, "Take me to see it."

Generally speaking, few ships anchor in this area.

Suddenly there's a ship anchored at sea; something just doesn't seem right.

He got up and walked out. As he left, he casually opened a drawer, took out a pistol, and tucked it into his waistband.

"Amos, dinner's almost ready. Where are we going?"

Chloe was watching TV in the living room when she saw Liu Jin and Tianxian walking out, so she asked them what was going on.

“Crystal said there was a ship anchored at sea, so I went to take a look.”

"I am coming too!"

Chloe quickly put on her slippers, whistled at Leon and Fanny who were lying on the steps, and the two big dogs immediately got up and trotted after the three of them.

We walked up the stone steps to the beach.

At this moment, the setting sun was sinking in the west.

A speedboat is sailing out to sea.

Liu Jin and his two companions could only see a shadow.

"It must be malfunctioning and being repaired."

Chloe said.

Liu Jin nodded and replied, "Possibly!"

But deep down, I felt like something was off.

But I can't quite put my finger on it, something just doesn't feel right.
