Wu Xian felt a little nervous.

……

In front of him, Coulson had his arms folded, apparently waiting for his combatants to arrive.

but--

At this time, Kristen, who had been silent, suddenly broke the silence.

The newly appointed general manager of Rheinland Life said something that Wu Xian didn't expect.

"Mr. Colson, are the people you mentioned about to bombard this place with magic the mercenaries you asked your secretary to recruit through the black market and other channels?"

"—"

Kristen's back was turned to Wu Xian, so Wu Xian didn't see Kristen at this time——

Under the clouds that filled the sky, the blond-haired Ms. Pellow confidently spread out one hand and faced the enemy in front of her. Her eyes were calm and emotionless, and the corners of her mouth were raised contemptuously, like an otherworldly genius.

Colson's expression changed, and he suddenly noticed something.

He didn't tell Kristen that the mercenaries who were coming later were mercenaries!

Wu Xian, who was behind Kristen, suddenly opened his eyes when he saw Colson's expression.

All along, Kristen and other directors of Rheinland Life have been in a passive position in the battle between the two sides.They abide by the laws of Colombia, and even if the enemy is already jumping back and forth on the thunder pool, they will never be the one to break the rules.

This has become natural in Wu Xian's thinking, and for Colson, he is also accustomed to always taking the initiative, while Rhine Life only has room for defense.

but.

Is Kristen really this kind of person?

Is she really a coward who will only passively take beatings, waiting for help from Silver Wolf security, and never think of using her own resources to fight back?

Kristen's calm expression was just like what Wu Xian knew she would look like in the plot nine years later, as if she had already planned everything about Colson.

Unfortunately, Wu Xian could only see Kristen's back.

But Wu Xian also noticed that when Colson realized what Kristen meant, his expression instantly turned ugly.

Kristen looked at Colson's expression and calmly said words that directly reversed the situation in front of her.

Coulson's eyes widened.

she says:

"After you arrived, I called your secretary."

"Those mercenaries won't come."

"—"

Like a thunder on the ground.

Even Mulseth, who was concentrating on controlling the water clone, turned her head in shock when she heard Kristen's words. She looked at Kristen's expression as if she had seen a ghost.

Not far away, two people's hands slipped and the goods in their hands fell to the ground.

In front of him, Colson's expression suddenly changed from disbelief to panic. He wanted to say something several times, or picked up his communicator to confirm with his secretary, but the current situation seemed to have confirmed what Kristen said. authenticity.

It's almost going to rain.

But there was no sign of the mercenaries coming.

In the open space in front of the office building, with such a wide field of vision, Coulson didn't even see a ghost!

Colson thought that something happened on the way to the mercenaries and he was late. After all, it stands to reason that after Colson delayed Rhine Life for 5 minutes, it was the time when Rhine Life was most busy, and they should have arrived. .

Now, Kristen gave Coulson a new way of explaining it.

If the sedative drugs he had taken earlier were not still exerting their effect, Coulson might not be able to hold himself any longer at this time!

Things seemed to be just as Kristen said -

Colson thought that his actions were foolproof, and he spent money to contact mercenaries through various channels. However, Kristen did not know when she had connected with the people around Colson, and she instigated Colson's rebellion. Secretary, and directly cut off the contact between Colson and the mercenaries, and made Colson think that he had successfully contacted the mercenaries!

Between Kristen's words, things turned around beyond everyone's expectations.

……

At this time, Wu Xian, who was squatting on the roof of the car, was stunned.

He already felt that he would have to fight here no matter what, and just now he was thinking of strategies to deal with the unknown enemy!

But Kristen, no, the commander-in-chief, she actually directly instigated the opposite person?

Wu Xian originally thought that this matter could only be solved by Texas...

How on earth did Kristen do it?

"No, think about it carefully. It seems that the commander-in-chief has been on the phone since the beginning when he came out of the building. He didn't come over when he saw Coulson. After he came over, he didn't say who she was calling..."

Wu Xian took a breath of cold air.

……

Kristen looked at Colson who was in disbelief.

"Mr. Colson, that's why my first sentence when I came to greet you today was, 'It seems that your plan has failed again.'"

The blond Ms. Perlo raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

The failure of her plan did not just mean that Coulson's plan to hold back the Rhine Life Convoy was quickly solved by Muir Seth and Ceria, but it had a deeper meaning!

She was not the person next to Coulson who just started to rebel against Coulson yesterday.

After that shareholders meeting, Kristen decided that besides completing her work and providing rear support for Silver Wolf Security, she would also do something for this battle.

Ms. Yara from the Human Resources Department has a wealth of connections. With her relationship with Yara, it is not difficult to get Secretary Colson's information with just a little pleading.

What happened next, Kristen actually learned Coulson's acting skills.

To be on the safe side, she even called and asked Lapland once, whom she knew well.

Kristen still hid this matter from Ceria and Mulseth. She was afraid that they would persuade her. In those days, they just thought Kristen was on the phone with a strange partner.

In front of him, Coulson wanted to say something.

However, Kristen chuckled and gave Coulson one last last hit.

"...Mr. Colson, on the day of the academic conference, after your secretary died unexpectedly outside in the middle of the night, no one told you about it for a long time until the academic conference. Didn't you notice something unusual? ?”

Chapter 257: General jurisdiction over the city

At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to have stopped rolling.

Mulseth looked at his friend in surprise as if he had met Kristen for the first time, while Colson opposite had a very stiff expression of surprise.

Although he was unable to produce too intense emotions under the influence of drugs, his reason kept telling him that Kristen was right.

In other words, his plan has long been known to Kristen, and he is completely manipulated by this young man who is 20 years younger than him!

And he, Coulson, didn't even realize that Kristen had instigated his secretary's rebellion until just now, and he was still smugly thinking that his mercenaries were coming and could end this battle with a crushing attitude!

——Colson is unable to regret, suffer, or be angry for the time being.

However, the professional manager of the beach umbrella also stood there in a daze.

He was completely confused.

Like a statue whose soul has been smashed.

Wu Xian: "..."

Wu Xian, who was squatting on the roof of the car, shook his beard and looked at the scene in front of him.

In the dim environment, Kristen stood opposite Colson with a tall figure. This is a very classic composition. Even an unrelated passerby can clearly see who is confronting him. The winner and the loser.

To be honest, at this moment, Wu Xian felt relieved in addition to the false alarm.

"...As expected of the commander-in-chief."

Ever since Wu Xian and Lapland came into contact with Rhine Life, he has seen various difficulties in Rhine Life.Some of these difficulties are internal and some are external.

But no matter what, he hopes that these lovely researchers of Rhine Life can have a good ending - at least a better ending than the one in the plot.

Wu Xian has worked hard for this, but sometimes he also wonders, will doing this really make things better?

Just like Wu Xian and Lapland left Syracuse and came to Colombia. At first Wu Xian thought that as long as he left Syracuse, Lapland would be better than when he stayed in Syracuse.

But now, Lapland, who came to Colombia, was also plunged into a confusion that he had never experienced before and would never experience in the original world line.

Similarly, if you want to realize the commander-in-chief's dream of flying into the sky, the obstacle standing in front of you may not be just a beach umbrella.

Fortunately, at this unexpected moment, Kristen made an unexpected but just right choice.

Just like the one who defeats the dragon must be a warrior——

The leader of Rhine Life personally defeated the beast of the beach umbrella.

……

"Kristen, what on earth is going on?!"

Muirseth no longer cares about controlling the water clones. Fortunately, all the goods related to Mr. Charles have been checked out. The convoy has entered the stage of reloading the goods. After leaving five water clones to help, she is busy He turned around and asked.

"...Sorry, I did something without telling you." Kristen looked at Mulseth and apologized sincerely.

Muirseth: "..."

Mulsay wanted to say something, but she suddenly remembered the starry sky that night.

So she just puffed up her cheeks and touched Kristen's shoulder with her small fist, pretending to be dissatisfied:

"When you get to Saint-Sophie City, you have to tell me when you have time."

"Okay." Kristen agreed happily.

"..."

Colson looked at the scene in front of him.

Under the influence of the drug, he was neither happy nor sad. He wanted to say something but couldn't. He wanted to leave directly, but he always felt that something was missing.

He has already lost.

However, Coulson knew that he was still unwilling to give up.

Although he knew that he had lost all the cards in his hand, and even the secretary who had been obeying his instructions had betrayed him, he had no means to stop Rhine's life.

Perhaps one day Rhine Life will be defeated by an enemy more powerful than him——

But Coulson hated that he couldn't see that.

He is not reconciled!

At this time, it was as if the sky had stopped to hear Coulson's thoughts, and thunder sounded in the air.

- Boom!

The lightning cut through the clouds above Tremont like a sharp blade, and like a spear piercing the sky where rainwater fell.At first, a few drops of rain fell, leaving a few small wet water stains on the ground. Then the water stains quickly began to become denser, and those on the ground had not even had time to be put into the truck. The goods in the cargo compartment were surrounded.

Rheinland Life's employees exclaimed, sped up the movements of their hands and feet, and used their bodies to shield the more valuable exhibit boxes from the rain.At this time, Seria's expression also became nervous, and she condensed into several thin crystal layers, until the calcium crystals used to block rain could cover all the goods in the temporary storage area.

Some of the employees of Silver Wolf Security also turned around to help move the exhibits. Everything was a mess in the rain, but it moved forward in an orderly manner.

Crash.

The rain quickly became heavier, as summer rainstorms always do. The sound of raindrops touching the asphalt pavement, cement walls, and metal surfaces of the street was really too loud and too dense. In the sound of such rain, all the noisy sounds All covered.

Wu Xian hid under the chassis of the truck from the roof to take shelter from the rain. The rain and fog quickly reduced the visibility. When the raindrops almost connected from top to bottom, even the shop signs across the wide road seemed a little blurry. .

In front of the motorcade, Colson and Kristen were still facing each other as before.

The difference is that Mulseth next to Kristen held up the umbrella for her, and Mulseth held Kristen's arm so that Kristen could fully enjoy the shade she carried with her.

Colson, who didn't have an umbrella, was soaked from head to toe in the heavy rain.

But Coulson remained unmoved under the influence of the drug.

He was not reconciled.

He didn't want to just run away.
