The waist is supported by the head of the little yellow duck sofa, bending into a thrilling soft arc, like an arch bridge.

He looked lazy and idle, but he had no intention of taking a nap.

Eri kicked her calves back and forth, threw her shoes into an unknown corner, and stretched out her hands boredly, counting the lines on the ceiling one by one as the clock ticked.

Quiet and cute.

The heater was humming with a strong sense of warmth, and the lights were slowly spreading out in circles of light, flickering on the laptop next to the game console that was moving in the wind.

The second half of the sentence written by Eri,

"Eri is waiting for Sakura."

"When Sakura was not online, Eri was waiting for Sakura."

The room was dim, without much light or shadow.

The space was closed and there was not even the sound of wind.

The only meaning of this stuffy and narrow place is to give a sense of security to those who are panicking.

Old Li sat on the sofa with his eyes closed, his hands clasped together and pressed against his forehead.

His slightly wrinkled forehead had been left with red marks, and no one knew how long he had maintained this position.

Lao Li is waiting.

Every time he took on a task, he would find ways to confirm how important the task was from the adults' perspective.

This will determine how much effort he needs to put in and what kind of retreat he should prepare.

He is over fifty years old, and the reason why he can live to this day is not because of his former bravery, because his strength has long been taken away by time.

The only reason he can live peacefully until now is because of the fear he suffers every day.

For two or three years, the adults have never looked for him.

Just when Lao Li thought he had been forgotten by the adults and could finally escape that kind of life.

The once forgotten terrifying spirit has been awakened again.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the old cell phone on the mahogany coffee table in front of him suddenly exploded, vibrated violently, and slid slightly on the table.

Old Li's whole body trembled, and he suddenly opened his bloodshot eyes.

He hurriedly turned on the communication device that would leave no trace in any operator's database, stared at every line of words, and silently pondered the possible meaning behind each word.

grown ups:

task?

Oh, I remember now, it’s the mining mission.

It is a very important matter. After all, it is suspected that there are mineral substances that I need.

Is it something important? Old Li stared at the message with a stern look on his face. He pursed his lips and typed, thought, deleted, and confirmed what he was going to say word by word.

Lao Li: Sir, what is the time limit for this mission?

Adult: Hmm? Lao Li, you have been with me for too long. You have become confused.

Of course, the sooner this happens, the better.

The sooner the better? And, the master really still remembers him! Old Li gritted his teeth and raised the level of this mission in his mind again.

Lao Li: I understand. Please rest assured, sir. I will definitely bring you good news.

Adult: I have never doubted this, Lao Li. After all, you are the person who is most like me that I have found in all these years.

Old Li: Thank you for your praise, sir. If I could learn even a thousandth of what you have learned, it would be an achievement worth bragging about in my life.

Adult: No, no, no! This is not an exaggeration, Lao Li! Frankly speaking, the missions you took before and after your return to China, in terms of eating up other people's value, really impressed me.

What does that mean? Old Li suddenly got goosebumps all over his body.

He shivered violently with his hair standing on end, and an uncertain guess came into his mind.

This conjecture made him extremely frightened, just like a cat that was grabbed by the scruff of the neck while trying to steal some fish.

Old Li swallowed hard and typed out intermittent words with trembling fingers.

Lao Li: Sir, I don’t understand what you are talking about.

Adult: Don't you understand? You are wrong to act crazy and stupid at this time, Lao Li.

The last few times you completed the mission, didn’t you make good use of your assistants?

You can use those young people for your own purposes without bloodshed, and foolishly jump into a deep pit where you will die if you fail to complete the task, thus risking your life to exert your greatest value, but you don't realize that this is actually leading yourself into the abyss of death.

To be honest, after I knew about this, I admire you, Lao Li.

Over the past ten years or so, you have really changed a lot. You are no longer the rough and tumble warrior that you used to be.

The adults know!

Old Li's pupils widened in panic, his breathing became rapid, and the hand holding the old mobile phone clenched tightly!

Everyone knows it!

He thought that the borrowed knife tactics he had used in recent missions were quite clever and had left no traces.

After all, those who knew and awakened all died in the end.

This is so that no one will report to the adults his method of completing the task.

But he didn't expect that the lord actually knew everything.

breathe--!

Ha ha--!

Old Li couldn't help but breathe heavily and felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave.

What to do? What should he do?

What is your purpose in suddenly exposing this matter at this time?

Are you going to kill him just like that?

Old Li swallowed hard and became more and more panicked.

He knew that adults were capable of such things.

Because that person has always been the kind of devil who, once he achieves success or is about to end everything, will unscrupulously show off, ridicule, sing praises and play with the losers!

Buzz!

Another message came.

grown ups:

Use less strength in your hands. What if you break the phone?

Why are you staring so wide-eyed, Lao Li?

Come on! Take a deep breath! You are already old, if you have a heart attack, there is no way you can save yourself!

Boom-!

His heart suddenly stopped and Lao Li subconsciously relaxed his hands. When he saw these words, he became even more panicked.

My Lord! My Lord is watching him?

Old Li looked around in panic, checking every inch of the place from top to bottom and from near to far, but he did not find any possible place to place surveillance - this secret room was his specially set up secret base, and the architect was killed quietly after it was completed, and even the hard drive of the design drawings was completely sunk into the sea.

This place is a place that even his precious daughter doesn't know about.

That adult? How did that adult see his current state?

Old Li kept looking around, and felt that in the darkness, there were many sneering and murderous black shadows standing, some tall, some short, some fat, some thin.

They wore all kinds of masks that adults had used and just stared at him closely.

The black muzzle of the gun in his hand was flashing with a faint light.

One after another, the trajectory of the bullets symbolizing death was pointing to his heart and the center of his eyebrows!

It was as if it could take his life at any moment and bring him into eternal sleep - death!

Om-!

The sound of violent vibration came from the palm of his hand again, which suddenly woke up the dazed Old Li, but also shook his mind the next moment.

Adult: I told you, you don’t have to be so panic.

With your personality, shouldn't you be in a secret room where no one can find you? Why are you still so insecure?

I don't mean to blame you. Rather, I am very satisfied with the way you completed the tasks the last few times.

Because this is your value! Lao Li!

Haha, occasionally seeing a young guy being tricked to death by an older person without even realizing it is really a great entertainment for me.

This makes me feel that an old guy like me can still do a lot of great things.

grown ups:

But, Lao Li, you'd better put in more effort in this mission.

The person on the other side finally changed his tone and it became exceptionally harsh.

grown ups:

A knife that is hung on the wall for a long time will rust sooner or later.

It's okay to take advantage of the power of another, but don't let yourself become a rat in the gutter. That kind of thing has no value and is only ugly enough to make people vomit. It has no meaning of existence at all.

Lao Li, I don't want you to rust or become that kind of thing in the gutter.

Therefore, always remember why you are still alive in this world.

grown ups:

By the way, after this mission, you can go back to Japan and bring your precious daughter with you.

Now think about it, the little girl whom you took care of even at the cost of returning to your country is now old enough to go to high school.

That's one of the most wonderful ages to be a woman.

call--!

suck--!

call--!

suck--!

Old Li opened his mouth wide, took deep breaths, and then used all his strength to type a few lines.

Lao Li: Yes! Sir, I understand! This time, I will not let you down at any cost!

boom--!

After completing the communication with great difficulty, Lao Li slumped on the sofa, sweating profusely.

He covered his eyes tightly, grabbed his violently beating heart, and tried hard to suppress his inner panic.

Old Li knew clearly that there would be absolutely no surveillance devices or eavesdropping facilities in his secret room.

This just proves that the adult has not become duller with age, he is still as scary as before!

The adults are aware of all the little tricks he has been playing.

Your Excellency also understands what he said and did just now.

Old Li completely accepted his fate.

He knew that from the moment he followed the adults more than ten years ago, he would never be able to escape the clutches of the adults except for death.

In front of the devil who can see into people's hearts, people are like puppets in the palm of their hands. All they can do is obey!

"Hey!"

I don’t know how much time had passed, but Lao Li finally came to his senses and made a phone call.

The voice was a little weak due to sweating.
