Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red
Chapter 342: Hymn to the Snowstorm (2)
Heavy snow flakes fell from the sky, and the howling cold wind made all the window glass in the conference room whistle.
Apart from the wind and snow outside the window, I could no longer see what the clouds in the sky looked like.
The buildings and trees in the distance were so blurry that only their outlines could be vaguely seen.
With the sound of a door being pushed open, Karasuma Soshin withdrew his gaze from the window in time.
He looked up at the tall man who walked towards him after entering the door.
The man was wearing a snow-white robe.
It was embroidered with large, intricate golden patterns, and upon closer inspection, one could see that part of them was exactly the same as the pattern on the corner of the ornaments in this room.
He is tall and his facial features are completely covered by a golden mask.
All that can be seen from head to toe is long golden hair tied up to the waist and a pair of rare golden eyes.
She swept her eyes across the complete golden-eyed holy flame pattern embroidered with red gold thread on the cuffs of the man's shirt.
Karasuma Soshin withdrew his gaze indifferently and did not pay any attention to the other people who followed the man in.
There was no concealment of impatience between his eyebrows.
Before the man could introduce himself, he stood up without any politeness and said in a cold voice:
“You really have no sincerity in discussing business.
The Vladivostok port delayed me for nearly twenty minutes.
I have been waiting here for so long.
This show of force was played to perfection.
However, what I hate most is people who are not punctual and do not cherish opportunities.
I'm sorry, but you are not qualified to be my customer."
Having said that, Karasuma Soshin simply ignored the gloved hand that the man extended in greeting and walked towards the door.
"This shouldn't be the real reason."
The man's hoarse voice made Karasuma Soshin's eyes darken.
“You are so confident, it seems that you have reached a cooperation with the Crows.
But the crows can't even protect themselves now, why not consider finding a more powerful partner?"
Karasuma Soshin paused, turned his head and looked at the man in white robe, his eyes full of thought and scrutiny.
After a few seconds of silence, he said:
“The Crows are one of the top forces in the other world.
If they can't protect themselves, how can your church, which has been expelled from Ying country, disappeared in exile for many years, think that you are more powerful?
Just talking with your mouth?"
They were shocked to hear that the Duke of Rose, an ordinary man, openly looked down on their organization and mocked and disrespected their respected Bishop Wilson.
The people following behind the man all cast murderous glances at Karasuma Soshin.
As long as the respected Bishop Wilson opened his mouth, they would rush up and put an end to this ignorant Duke of Rose.
The few people who were well prepared were filled with murderous intent. They looked at Karasuma Soshin as if they were looking at a piece of meat on a chopping board, thinking coldly about how to cut.
However, the man's performance was beyond their expectations.
Not only did he not get angry and signal them to take action, but he calmly asked Karasuma Soshin to sit down again.
"Of course not, but I thought we could sit down first."
Karasuma Soshin lowered his eyes and thought for a few seconds, then sat back in his previous position.
"Samuel Wilson, an ordinary bishop."
The man briefly introduced himself and extended his right hand, which was wearing a white velvet glove embroidered with gold patterns, to Karasuma Soshin again.
Karasuma Soshin raised his hand, and when his fingertips touched Bishop Wilson's gloves, he quickly withdrew his hand.
He looked impatient, waiting for the other party to explain and prove him.
Wilson looked at Karasuma Soshin's figure and appearance which had not changed at all, and began to put aside his doubts.
The pattern on his gloves is a magical inscription, and anyone who touches it will show its truest form.
Even disguise and makeup will provide some hints.
The blond, blue-eyed Karasuma Soshin slowly withdrew his hand and said:
"It seems that you are the bishop who prepared a wedding gift for me.
You have five minutes to convince me."
Bishop Wilson glanced at his subordinate beside him.
The subordinate who received the signal accurately took a small step forward and stood next to Wilson.
Opened the persuasion speech:
“Since you have made a deal with the Crows, you have obtained special weapons that can suppress ordinary members of the Mystic Side.
I guess you also have some understanding of the mysterious side."
Karasuma Soshin didn't react at all, not even bothering to lift his eyelids.
“The special weapons made by Crow do pose a great threat to ordinary Mystic Side members.
But it has no effect on a strong man like our Bishop who is not restricted by time and geographical distance."
Karasuma Soshin raised his eyelids with interest.
“At this point, we will not hide the fact from you, Duke Rose, that we have a blood feud with those crows.
We have been preparing for revenge for many years.
Now, our revenge plan has reached a critical moment.
Not only has he taken over part of the Crows' power, he has also infiltrated the rest of their forces.
We currently have an absolute advantage, and what the bishop said before, that the crows can't protect themselves, will soon become a reality."
Listening to these eloquent words, Karasuma Soshin's face did not look as the church member who spoke had expected.
Not only was there no sign of intention on his face, but there was even more coldness and contempt between his brows.
“It sounds nice, but all I hear is a bunch of meaningless empty words.
Since you haven't succeeded yet, wait until you succeed before talking to me again."
Karasuma Soshin, who once again felt that his time had been wasted, had an undisguised look of boredom between his brows.
Stand up from your seat again.
When the subordinate received the gaze from his bishop, he was startled and quickly persuaded the man to stay.
Although he didn't quite understand why he had to treat an ordinary person kindly, he knew that if the person left, he would definitely face the wrath of the bishop.
The idea of retaining someone has never been able to move the cold-hearted "Duke of the Rose".
This was the case with Alexi in the past, and it is no exception for church members today.
"The Nike will never have a chance to dock. Can the Duke of Rose really bear to leave his beloved fiancée behind?"
"What's the meaning!"
I could hear the subtle urgency and worry in Karasuma Soshin's words.
Wilson's subordinates, who had the ability to perceive emotions, immediately calmed down and smiled with confidence.
“Your fiancée, Miss Yana, should be in Hall 2 on the third floor of the Nike, watching your auction as an invited guest.
I am right, am I not? "
Seeing Karasuma Soshin frowned slightly, he sat back in his seat.
Wilson's subordinate who spoke continued:
“The lavish spending in the Crystal Palace.
The Gabriel Crown that Miss Yana had mentioned casually before was suddenly removed from the original auction.
There are also auctions like this where drug lords are fighting for it, but they allow Miss Yana to watch at will.
It seems that your feelings towards Miss Yana are not as indifferent as you said to Artem before."
A hint of anger flashed in Karasuma Soshin's eyes, then disappeared in an instant.
Wilson's subordinates became even happier when they knew that the Duke of Rose was suppressing his anger.
"Knowing that you and Miss Yana's wedding date is approaching, one of the gifts our Bishop has specially prepared for you is Miss Yana's safe return.
Mr. Vasily, are you satisfied with this gift?"
Amid the expectations of Wilson's subordinates, Karasuma Soshin remained silent for a few seconds again.
His lowered eyes concealed all the emotions in them.
But when he raised his eyes again, Wilson's subordinate was stunned.
He no longer sensed any anxiety or worry from Karasuma Soshin.
"Even with that reason, you're still not qualified."
Wilson's subordinates looked at Karasuma Soshin in shock, and he continued to speak:
“He couldn’t wait to finalize the cooperation with me at this time, and even used my fiancée as a bargaining chip.
Your so-called absolute advantage is at least half mixed with water.
I guess, in your revenge plan, there is a tough enemy who is extremely threatening and even frightening to you.
Is it right? "
Wilson's subordinates, who had just realized that the Rose Duke in front of them was a cold-blooded person who would not be shaken by a woman he actually cared about, were once again frightened by Karasuma Soshin's words.
"It seems I guessed it right."
Hearing Karasuma Soshin say this.
Wilson's subordinates, feeling the displeased gaze of their Lord Bishop, began to sweat coldly on their foreheads.
Karasuma Soshin looked down at the watch on his wrist:
“The five minutes are almost up, if I haven’t been convinced by other reasons and proofs.
I think I can express my regrets in advance to the Reverend Bishop Wilson."
Wilson's subordinates were sweating coldly while thinking quickly about how else they could persuade him.
After thinking about it carefully, I felt that I had said everything I should have said. The only mistake was that I didn't expect that the Duke of Rose would actually be willing to sacrifice his fiancée's life.
You obviously care so much.
As for advantages, they don't have much at all compared to the Crows now.
The revenge plan has been going on for a long time, but the most difficult whiskey has not yet appeared.
Those who infiltrated the equipment group were uprooted. As for those in other departments, if they really took action now, they would have to follow the intelligence they had learned.
Whiskey is so happy that he may not have time to rejoice.
Why does His Excellency the Bishop insist on winning over the Duke of Rose at this time?
It’s not impossible to be late.
As Wilson's subordinates thought about it, they again unconsciously felt a little dissatisfied.
But it soon calmed down again.
Karasuma Soshin, who saw clearly, counted the time and stood up for the third time:
"The five minutes are up. Unfortunately, you didn't convince me."
Karasuma Soshin acted decisively and walked out the door before he finished speaking.
I didn't listen to anyone's explanation of the intention to keep him.
At this time, Samuel Wilson, who had been silent, spoke again.
The voice is still uniquely hoarse:
"We have an ace in our hand, Gin, a code name. You should have heard of the cooperation deal with Crow.
He is in our hands now.”
Karasuma Soshin stopped for the second time and turned around:
"You mean the number one killer of crows, Gin?"
Seeing that Wilson did not refute, Karasuma Soshin asked in a cold and puzzled manner:
"He's just a killer, but you guys call him an ace."
Wilson didn't find this surprising.
Crow has always been very mysterious to the outside world, and even many people inside the organization may not be clear about Gin's position and authority in the organization.
Not to mention an outsider.
Receiving the eye signal from his lord bishop, Wilson's subordinate took over the conversation again and briefly explained the internal structure of the crows and Gin's position in the crows.
In response, Karasuma Soshin listened indifferently, without any interest.
He said rather perfunctorily:
"That's all. I wish you good luck in your revenge. Once you succeed, come and talk to me about cooperation."
As he spoke, he grasped the door handle of the room.
Wilson's subordinate was about to speak when he saw Karasuma Soshin raised his other hand and pointed the black muzzle of the gun directly at his head.
"boom!"
Wilson's subordinate was lucky enough to avoid a bullet that was shot towards him as he was pulled back in time by other colleagues nearby.
Gunshots rang out and smoke spread out from the muzzle.
An exquisite missionary mosaic hanging on the wall was unfortunately hit.
Karasuma Soshin, who didn't hear the sound of the bullet piercing flesh, showed regret on his face, and the next second the muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at Wilson.
"Are you trying to force a sale?"
Karasuma Soshin turned around without opening the door and spoke in an extremely cold voice.
Wilson certainly didn't intend to let him go like this.
The reason why he chose this time to send someone to invite Karasuma Soshin over and even showed up in person.
It's not just about cooperation in drug dealing.
The drug business is always easy to negotiate.
What really requires time is another collaboration.
Regarding the cooperation in putting the blame for the sinking of the Nike cruise ship and the death of all the people on board on the Crows.
Behind the Nike cruise ship,
There is a powerful organization that wanders between black and white. It is more like an organization affiliated with the official forces than a gray force - the Grizzlies.
And Ross includes both the black and white worlds, including the major mafia forces and the official forces of Ross.
Maintain friendly relations.
It is for this reason that the Nike is the site of three mystery auctions.
And once the Nike cruise ship sank on the high seas.
The first to be angered was the Grizzly Bear, and the second was the forces behind the guests attending the auction in Hall No. 1.
The items for auction in Hall 1 are three officially stamped and certified mining licenses.
With the authorization of the Ross government, it has become the only item on auction in Hall 1 of the Nike cruise ship today.
Behind the mining license,
It is a gold vein that was discovered a few months ago and recently confirmed through exploration.
The mineral vein is located in an extremely cold region, covered with ice and snow all year round. It is buried under a thick layer of ice and snow most of the time and is now in the polar night period.
Once the news was confirmed, it was strictly sealed.
Therefore, those who are eligible to obtain the auction admission ticket and sit in the auction venue are basically local forces of Eros.
If anything happens to these people, it can be said that the entire Eros will be implicated.
And this is exactly the result Samuel Wilson wanted.
He wanted to make Crow the culprit of this incident.
We must make Eros a restricted area for crows.
Just like the Ying Kingdom in the past, it has become a forbidden zone that the church dares not easily set foot in.
