Episode 51: Behind the Scenes

[Click to bookmark the recommendation tickets and look forward to your support]

Xiao Lan returned from the airport and had a big meal in Lanyue Tower. When he returned to his new home in Lily Garden, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening. He had experienced a life-and-death hijacking, and a brief confrontation with Mrs. Yang, which made him feel a little upset.

After calming down, he did not rush to open the Apocalypse Gate. Opening the Apocalypse Gate required his energy and spirit to consume. His spirit today was indeed a bit exhausted. After taking a shower, he simply turned on the TV.

During this period, basically all TV stations were broadcast on CCTV News, and the news content played was no longer the bank robbery a few days ago, but the plane robbery that was freshly released today. Without his expectations, the news mainly highlighted the process of Mrs. Yang leading all passengers and crew to counter the criminals. For the sensitive word Iron Man, it just passed by gently, and even mentioned it did not count.

After all, the existence of Iron Man is too incredible, but it has also attracted the attention of the country, and even other countries may be ready to move.

Xiao Lan naturally knew that he was not a fool. From the time he took out the brilliant mecha, he knew that this golden mecha would definitely attract the attention of the outside world. However, at that time, he was worried about his sister's safety, but he didn't care about this much. Afterwards, he simply made up his mind and exposed it. Anyway, even if the existence of the mecha was exposed, it was not easy to find him.

At this moment, his cell phone rang. Unexpectedly, he thought it would be his sister, but he didn't expect it to be another person.

"Hey, Xiao... Xiao Lan." The familiar voice on the other end of the phone was a little embarrassed and worried: "I just read the news and heard that something happened to the plane you were on. Are you... okay?"

It was Sun Qian! Xiao Lan subconsciously tightened his heart, and his hands unconsciously increased their strength, and his phone was creaking. He took a deep breath, tried to stabilize his mood, and responded as easily: "I'm fine, I'm just a little scared."

"Is that so? That's good." The person on the other end of the phone was obviously relieved, and then there was a silence. It turned out that from when, the two of them had become so strange that they could not find any topic. After a long time, she said, "Since you're fine, I'm dead."

"Wait!" For some reason, Xiao Lan shouted in a mischievous manner, and a look of struggle appeared on his face. After hesitating for a while, he still gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I have something I want to talk to you."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed a little nervous and hesitant, but he still asked: "What's the matter?"

"It's not important." Xiao Lan said silently: "When do you have time? I want to ask you out for a talk, okay?"

"This... OK." After a long silence, the person on the other end of the phone responded: "Next Friday, I'll take a break next Friday."

"Then... we'll see you in the old place then." Xiao Lan hung up the phone, feeling a little melancholy and a deep heart.

The deeper the relationship, the deeper the harm, but sometimes people are so mean. Even if they are hurt, it is still difficult to cut off the entanglements of their relationship.

His mind was in a state of confusion, but the phone rang again inappropriately. He subconsciously felt a little irritable, but when he grabbed the phone, he immediately changed his face and chuckled, "Xiaoyue, why are you calling me so late?"

"Brother!" Xiao Yue on the other end of the phone was extremely excited when he heard his brother's familiar voice, and his words were filled with joy: "I just read the news and found out that something happened to the plane you made. Brother, how are you? Nothing happened, are you injured?"

"No, no." Xiao Lan quickly smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, the news is a bit exaggerated. In fact, the whole thing was safe. Now I'm back home and lying on the bed watching TV!"

"Really?" Xiao Yue was still a little worried. Since childhood, her brother has always only reported good news and not bad news to her. I still remember that one time in high school, she was teased by several senior students in the school. Her brother beat the students hard for her. He himself suffered a lot of injuries, but he always kept it hidden and didn't tell him. If it weren't for the accident, she would probably never know in her life!

"Of course it's true..." Xiao Lan comforted her repeatedly and convinced Xiao Yue. Before hanging up the phone, he still reminded him: "By the way, Xiao Yue, you must not tell your parents about the incident in the plane I did. If they know, they will definitely be worried."

"I know." Xiao Yue responded very obediently, but at the same time, she did not forget to add some extra requests; "But brother, I will keep the secret for you, what kind of hush money do you plan to give me."

"What kind of hushing fee do you want?" Xiao Lan asked with a smile: "It's better. After a while, I will stabilize here and give you a new limited edition sports car. You can choose the brand. How about it?"

"Ah!" Perhaps I didn't expect that my brother would become so big now, so Xiao Yuedao couldn't stand it anymore: "Will this be too wasteful!"

"What are you wasting!" Xiao Lan decided: "I couldn't afford to give it to you in the past because I didn't have money. Now I don't need money at the most. What's wrong with giving you a car? And I have to give you the most expensive one!"

After a domineering speech, he showed his nouveau riche's attitude, but fortunately he successfully suppressed his sister and received her promise that he would never reveal any information to his parents. Only then did Xiao Lan hung up the phone with satisfaction, and the sorrow on his face finally changed into a faint threat.

However, as the saying goes, some people are happy and some are worried. At this moment, there were two figures standing opposite each other in the hall of an ancient manor abroad:

"Ivan, how about it? Have you got the stuff?" The figure reflected in the candlelight, the slender and slowly spoke, with a slightly pale cheek without any blood.

"Sorry, Prince Bruch." A figure with a slightly fat face responded with a helpless look on his face: "I'm sorry, our actions failed."

"Tell me, why did it fail?" As the candlelight swayed, a slight anger suddenly appeared on his pale face, but then it disappeared without a trace.

Ivan said in a deep voice: "In order not to attract the attention of other clans, I specially arranged a team of Oriental mercenaries, under the name of robbing the bank, hoping to get the thing back smoothly. Unfortunately, those Oriental mercenaries were too incompetent. After all the plans were thorough, they failed. Five died, and two others fell into the hands of the police."

"Oh?" Prince Bruch said with a little sneer: "It's so easy to fail. It seems that they are indeed very incompetent, what happened later?"

"Later, I arranged for the second team of mercenaries to take action. This time, I planned for them to hijack a plane so that they could negotiate with the police. In the name of rescuing the remaining two mercenaries, they could retrieve the thing by the way. However, "Ivan said helplessly: "These guys were even more unbearable. Before they could completely control the plane, an old man took the passengers on the plane to counter them." As he spoke, he took out several photos and handed them out.

"So it was her?" Prince Bruch looked at the silver-haired old lady in the photo and chuckled immediately: "I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, she was so old in just a few decades." With emotion, he said: "Since she is here, the hijacking failure has long been inevitable."

"What should we do next?" Ivan asked: "That thing seems to be no longer in the bank. We have lost its whereabouts. Where should we start?"

"Huh?" With a deep thought, Prince Bruch stretched out his hand and handed the photo in his hand to the candlelight to ignite. "The thing was thrown away during the bank robbery. Naturally, I have to go to the two living mercenaries to ask. I believe that there will definitely be an answer in them..."
