my old life

Chapter 2464
People have a fantasy mentality, when they can't see the danger, they will think about all kinds of possibilities, so the invisible threat is the most deadly!
Before noon tomorrow, I will not let the old man see me no matter what, so as to give him the greatest psychological pressure!

The car is heading north all the way, getting farther and farther away from London, but the farther the safer!
I have always been cautious in doing things. After messing with the old man, I will hide to prevent him from jumping over the wall to seek revenge.

I don't plan to tell Mike this news, as long as the old man invites Mike to dinner, then he will naturally know that I did it...

In the evening, the car stopped in front of a hotel, and I asked Xiaona to go in and open a room by herself, and then we mixed in.

This can avoid providing identity information. Xiaona's identity alone will not easily arouse suspicion. After all, I don't know what's going on with the old man now.

However, the choice to go all the way north was correct. There was no interrogation or inspection on the road, and going the other way would work at any time.

I went into the hotel room and lit a cigarette when the phone rang and it was Mike.

"Mike." I took a deep breath and picked up the phone. It seemed that the old man had contacted him.

"Hawkeye, have you seen the teacher?" Mike's tone was tepid, but it felt different from usual.

"Yes, I met him on a farm estate in North Wales and he was a very stylish guy."

I said something with a smile, alluding to seeing the contempt and contempt of the nobles, and also quietly leaving a way out for myself.

"How are you talking?" Mike asked calmly. If he didn't point it out, I wouldn't take the initiative to speak.

“Everything was a pleasure!”

"Do you know what happened just now? It's really surprising that he took the initiative to call and invite me to dinner!"

Mike said something meaningful, which seemed like a temptation and an inquiry.

"Oh? This is a good thing!" I deliberately pretended not to understand, after all I don't know how Mike is feeling now.

"I'm curious how you did it..." Mike continued to ask tentatively, and I continued to pretend to be confused.

"I didn't do anything, maybe he missed you."

Now is not the time to claim credit, no matter whether things can be done or not, we will not know until noon tomorrow.

"When will you come back?"

"The car encountered a little trouble on the road, and may not be able to go back in a short time. I just happened to take a rest here."

I found a reason casually, I didn't say where I am, in fact I don't know where I am now.

"OK, call me anytime if you have any trouble."

"Ok."

I felt a lot easier when I hung up the phone. Mike didn't mention any conflict, and whether there was a conflict or not, it had achieved its purpose.

I light a cigarette easily, quietly looking at the street outside the hotel.

After a day of running around, all nerves were completely relaxed, fatigue swept over like a tide, and the blisters on his left hand were aching.

"Xiaona, go out and buy me some gauze and alcohol." I shook my blistered hand, and there was an obvious burn on the tiger's mouth.

The heat from the gun barrel can easily burn the skin in an instant, but this small injury is nothing to me.

Half an hour later, Xiaona came back with her things, and after alcohol disinfection, she simply bandaged her, and her hands smelled of alcohol.

"Mr. Ming, can this work?" Li Xiaorou came up to him and asked, but he pretended to be concerned.

"No problem, you go to rest and leave me alone."

When night falls, everything is swallowed by darkness, and the town is also shrouded in darkness. There are no high-rise buildings of modern civilization here, and even the neon signboards are so tacky.

Xiaona bought some food and came back with two bottles of foreign wine. After eating and drinking, she went straight to bed.

I haven't rested so early in a long time. I don't know if it's because of the alcohol, I feel dizzy.

The town is very quiet at night, as if it is a place that is indifferent to the world, completely free from the hustle and bustle of modern civilization.

It is easy to calm down here, and time seems to slow down a lot. Perhaps this is the most suitable way of life for people.

I'm thinking about what might happen tomorrow. If the old man wants to settle accounts with me, he will definitely go to Mike, because he can't find me himself!

In this foreign land, no one knows my name, no one knows who I am...that's the best way to hide for me.

Time flew by, and I slept until noon the next day, and when I woke up, it was past eleven o'clock, and it was raining lightly outside.

I stretched and lit a cigarette, rainy days are always drowsy, and there was a missed call from Mike on my phone.

I called back directly, not knowing how the situation is now, but if the old man dares to play tricks, I will definitely not let him go!

"Hello, Mike."

"How did you sleep?" Mike's voice on the phone was quite relaxed, but the more he said it, the more unsettled he became.

Now Mike's calm is like the calm before the storm. I don't know if he has seen the old man, and I don't know how they talked.

"Fortunately, I accidentally overslept."

"Sleep for a while if you have nothing to do, and be careful not to inflame the wound. I have asked someone to deliver ointment to you."

As soon as I heard this, I knew that Mike had got all the information. He knew that I had a burn, so he should know the whole process of yesterday.

"Thank you."

I have no doubt that it was Li Xiaorou who revealed the news, because she is an eyeliner by my side.

After hanging up the phone, I lay on the sofa and continued to be in a daze. The feeling of sleep is always so good, especially when it is raining.

Suddenly I found a few vials on the table. They were not bought by Xiaona yesterday. Could it be that these were sent by Mike?
"Xiaona Xiaorou, what's on the table?" I pretended not to understand and asked, Li Xiaorou walked over quickly.

"This is the ointment that Mr. Mike sent over, the burn medicine."

"Oh? When was it delivered? How did Mike know that I was burned?" I asked with a smile, and Li Xiaorou's face changed slightly.

She lowered her head and said nothing, and I didn't ask, but I knew what was going on.

"Mike said to deliver the medicine to me, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." I said as I unwrapped the gauze on my left hand, and Li Xiaorou immediately helped to apply the medicine.

"Xiaona went out to buy some food and came back, hungry."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Remember to bring an umbrella." I reminded with a smile, and Xiaona nodded at me.

It is raining lightly outside, a word of concern will make people feel very comfortable, and it means that they will be cared about.

This kind of kind reminder is different from false affection. Greetings that pretend to be concerned are always embarrassing, and even more disgusting.

Time flies by, everyone rests in the room after eating, I watch the time on my watch and wait quietly.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Mike called and told me to go back after everything went well. Hearing his tone, I felt in a good mood.

I greeted Xiaona and Li Xiaorou to leave, and I felt inexplicably relaxed at the moment, which can be regarded as a 'great achievement'.

Leaving the hotel and embarking on the return journey, it was raining lightly all the way, making everything seem very quiet.

Few people can be seen on the street, occasionally a car will pass by, and the mood is indescribably relaxed.

It was already past seven in the evening when I got back to the hotel, and I was sore from running all the way, but when I got out of the car, I found something was wrong.

There are a few strong men in suits at the entrance of the hotel. They look very burly, and I can feel a sense of quackery in them.

These people are not good at first glance, with black suits and sunglasses, I turned around and got in the car to call Mike.

I didn't get out of the car until I was sure that Mike was still in the hotel. As long as Mike was here, there would be no problems, and even if there were problems, he would take care of me.

When I came to the door of Mike's room, I knocked lightly. I didn't expect that it was Jennifer who opened the door. Jones and Carrera were there.

Besides them, there were a few people in black suits in the room. Their eyes sharpened as soon as they saw me, and I also saw a familiar figure from the back!

Unexpectedly, the old man with black and white hair was also there. He stood at the window with his back to me, obviously coming to settle accounts with me!
