Fang Zhou, just tell me whether the mission is completed or not.

To be honest, Wendell was very excited.

Anyway, my cousin was a good-for-nothing, so his death would be a relief to the world.

Not to mention that his death would allow him to advance further.

It can be said that he has made up his mind to make amends for his crime.

"Robbery? That's not a nice word." Luo Chen laughed when he heard the name of his dandy aristocratic cousin.

“I just happened to open a school.”

"Mr. Mephisto of our school is quite good at education, so it's a good opportunity to send your cousin to study abroad for a while."

"We want to help your uncle educate your cousin and let them help us."

"This is called reciprocity."

Originally, Wendell still had some moral condemnation in his heart.

After all, using relatives to achieve one's own goals is immoral in any country.

But after hearing what Luo Chen said, he immediately felt no more burden.

"Yes, yes, they asked me for help, and we used it to help ourselves. This is purely a matter of reciprocity."

"I'll call my uncle right now and ask him to bring the child to see me."

An indescribable excitement surged in Wendel's heart. He stood up excitedly, his eyes flashing with anticipation and eagerness.

However, the moment he stood up.

"Wendell, don't rush."

Luo Chen's voice was calm and powerful, as if it had a kind of magical power that instantly calmed the excitement in his heart.

"What's wrong? Any other questions?"

Luo Chen rubbed his fingers and a sly smile appeared on his face.

He stood up and approached Wendell, and gave soft instructions:

"If you agree to it directly, they will become suspicious. You can ask them for some bribes first and then delay it for another day. After all, our school's teacher Mephisto can't teach for nothing, right?"

After hearing what Luo Chen said, Wendell suddenly understood.

He nodded, his eyes gleaming with approval:

"As expected of Chief Luo, I will go and ask for the bribe now."

So Wendel picked up the phone again and, following Luo Chen's instructions, began a clever conversation with his uncle.

He first expressed his importance and concern for children's education, and then expressed his own helplessness.

Then he cleverly mentioned that he knew an official from the Ministry of Education named Mephistopheles.

Only at the end did he euphemistically mention the issue of the kickback.

The price of the bribe is not low. Since he is a senior official at the ministerial level, the introduction fee may be 5 million Longmen coins.

On the other end of the phone, my uncle heard what Wendell said.

There was silence at first, then tears of joy.

If the other party dares to charge money, it means they can really get things done.

If they dare to charge a large sum of money, it means that things are stable.

Otherwise, who would deliberately give others such a big handle?

So, amid Wendel's repeated thanks, he expressed his willingness to take 6 million Longmen coins, 5 million for the arrangement, and 1 million for Wendel, asking him to make sure to contact the call.

At the same time, Frost Star and Patriot were treated as air.

It has been left to dry for more than ten minutes.

After raising their concerns and suggestions, they watched Luo Chen and Wendel's operations throughout the process.

Luo Chen and Wendel's behavior can no longer be described as immoral.

It's simply inhumane.

Before kidnapping someone, you have to extort some money, right?

However, Luo Chen's actions also made the patriots vaguely feel that Luo Chen might really be able to deceive the empire.

After all, the reason why I had concerns just now was that I thought Luo Chen was a human.

"By the way, Mr. Patriot, what concerns did you have about the visitor just now?"

At this time, Luo Chen also remembered what the Patriot seemed to have said just now.

The Patriot took a deep breath, feeling as though he didn't need an answer anymore.

Judging from Luo Chen’s behavior towards him a few days ago, he would definitely find a way to anger the two commanders.

But the patriot thought about it and repeated it again:

"How can we trust those two... commanders?"

"What do you mean by how can they agree to form a coalition with us?" Luo Chen confirmed with him.

The Patriot nodded slightly.

But Luo Chen's answer once again exceeded his expectations:

"The answer is simple. If we want someone to truly trust us, the most important thing is sincerity!"

"Just like you could come here with me, Mr. Patriot."

“Only sincerity can build a bridge of trust.”

"So I decided that we should go visit these two commanders next and make them realize the Empire's conspiracy!"

The Patriot was stunned.

"What did you say?"

Chapter 205: Your wife is in my hands, very smooth.

three days later.

Chernobyl Border Fortress.

The towering walls of this fortress are covered with traces of weathering, and the city gates blend into the mountains.

The Ursus border guards were patrolling nearby. Their vision was sharp and no detail escaped their eyes.

At this time, an Ursus soldier with blood on his body appeared from the distant horizon.

He took just two steps towards the fortress before falling to the ground.

After the border guards noticed the uninvited guest, an off-road vehicle carrying soldiers drove out of the fortress and took the injured soldier into the vehicle.

In the car, the border guards found Imperial Army identification on him.

It has his name and identification inscribed on it.

When the soldier in the car saw his identity, his face turned pale instantly.

Because this injured guy was the guard of the fortress commander, Lieutenant Colonel Boris.

The border guards did not dare to delay and immediately sent the wounded man to Lieutenant Colonel Boris.

Fortress Command.

"What did you say? My son and wife were robbed? Who did it?"

Lieutenant Colonel Boris frantically shook the injured guard's shoulders.

Ever since his cousin, Marquis Boris, and his entire family were assassinated, he has stepped up protection for his own family.

Not only does he not take any political stance, he also always arranges guards to protect his family when they travel.

When he goes out to the mobile city, in addition to guards, he will also hire a security company.

Several years passed like this without any accidents happening to any of my relatives, but why was he kidnapped today?

"Yes, it was done by the Integration Movement!"

"There are too many of them, at least thousands, and we were ambushed. We don't have time to break out."

The guard stammered in answering Boris's questions.

Now when he recalled the battle scenes not long ago, he still felt his legs trembling.

Those people from the Integration Movement were like devils. Thousands of them rushed out from both sides of the road with grins on their faces, and the guards' line of defense was instantly defeated.

Any guard who did not surrender immediately was lifted up above their heads like prey and cheered on.

The reason why he was able to run away was that those people deliberately let him back to pass on the message.

"Ambush? How could anyone know their whereabouts?"

Lieutenant Colonel Boris couldn't believe what he heard.

The Integration Movement is just a group of civilian organizations wandering in the mountains. How could they have known about his convoy and set up an ambush in advance?

"This... I don't know." The guard was unable to answer this question at all.

Boris, who was furious when his wife and children were arrested, had no place to vent his anger, so he could only take it out on this guard:

"You don't know anything, so why did you come back?"

"If you can't even protect people, then you can just die."

"Someone, drag him out, chop him up and feed him to the dogs."

Boris waved his hand.

The guards at the headquarters stepped forward, grabbed the injured guard, and dragged him out the door.

The guard who was dragged burst into tears on the spot:

"Sir! No! I have parents and children to take care of. Please spare my life."

Boris became even angrier when he heard that the injured guards included both old and young people.

Your wife and children have been arrested, and you are still alive?

So he added another command:

"Go chop his parents and children together!"

After chopping off the entire family of the unlucky guy, Boris's anger calmed down a little.

He picked up the communication terminal and wanted to dial a number, but he didn't know who to call.

Because he plays dead and refuses to express his political stance.

Not only did the imperial central government ignore him.

Even the local nobles of Chernobyl had no dealings with him.

This is how the aristocratic circle works. If you want others to help you, you have to do more things for them in your daily life.

Not having contact with each other in normal times saves time and worry, but when problems arise, you become an isolated island with no one to lend a helping hand.

Just as Lieutenant Colonel Boris picked up the terminal and put it down again, his terminal suddenly rang.

It was a call from the communications room switchboard operator.

"Hello? What's going on?"

"Sir! There is an unknown communication that wants to talk to you!" said the signalman.

"Unknown communication? No time!"

Boris refused outright.

He was worried right now and had no mood to talk to someone of unknown origin.

"The other party said that women with moles on their chests and who have given birth to two children are very charming."

"Something's wrong..." Boris muttered and was about to hang up.
