please shoot me down

command.

To put it nicely, Black Stone is the force that maintains the internal stability of the wolf country, to put it bluntly - he is one of the puppet officers of the snake country.

It's just that his puppet is not so obvious, and he doesn't necessarily follow the command of the consortium of the snake country.After all, this commander still served the wolf country during the nine-year civil war, and it is inevitable that he still maintains some of his own positions after independence.

After all, it’s still the same reason—I used to be on an equal footing with your stability maintenance troops in the Snake Country, but now your people can direct me in the Wolf Country to do and not do what I do—it’s unbearable for me personally.

Perhaps it is also because of this temper that the identity of this armed team is very sensitive.The forces that insist on the independence of the wolf country don't want to see him, and the forces that completely surrender to the snake country are also wary of him.

But the octopus understands that Blackstone's team and its own power are the key to ensuring that the wolf country will not have another civil strife.

Heishi is the confidant of the snake owner of the Snake Country. He brought a huge amount of wealth from the Snake Family to the Wolf Country to purchase armaments and expand logistics.If it weren't for him, it would be impossible for the Wolf Country to emerge from the weakness after the war so quickly, and with sufficient armaments, the neighboring countries would not dare to act rashly.

At the same time, he will always keep an eye on the leader who may set off a coup d'etat in the country, and nip the hidden danger in the cradle in time, so as to prevent another disturbance in the wolf country and allow other countries to take advantage of it.

Of course he knows what the people of the wolf country will think when making friends with the snake country, and it will make the original veteran of the wolf country feel sad, but if this is not the case, it is impossible for the wolf country to maintain the integrity of its territory with its barren land and declining national strength , and it is impossible to let the war stop in the first nine years.

And the octopus is a small leader for him to maintain internal stability, constantly recruiting the so-called dead men to perform tasks, and constantly updating the dead men.Only in this way can their actions be kept absolutely concealed, and even if people know they are doing something, it is difficult to follow the clues and catch them.

But this time Octopus made a mistake, and he let go of a dead man.

The dead man had no intention of leaving the Wolf Country, and Octopus didn't seem to want to keep his mouth shut.

Octopus didn't hide what he did, and said bluntly - "This person is very loyal and has the value of continuing to use, so I think he can live longer, and there is no need to kill him now."

"How many missions has he carried out?" Blackstone asked.

"Twelve times," the Octopus confessed, "not counting the one he saved me."

"The last time I asked him to follow the old snake's memory card, did you get it back?" Black Stone asked again.

"No, after that mission, I lost contact with him. He didn't appear in the North District until we were attacked a few days ago." Octopus replied.

"Yeah, he suddenly appeared in the North District, and we happened to be ambushed there," Heishi chuckled, "How can you guarantee that he wasn't bought earlier before you hired him?"

Octopus really wants to say that you will know it just by looking at him, and you will not feel that his brain is so good if you look at his stupid appearance.

But he was afraid of angering Heishi, so he said sternly—"This person is a drunk and lustful person. The gathering in the North District can attract many such people. I think...it is really just a coincidence that he appears there."

Heishi didn't answer, he didn't show belief or disbelief, he just lit a cigarette, looked out the window and fell silent.

Octopus was a little nervous, took a step forward, and said again—"Captain, I need a helper, and he has no relatives, no friends, has been in prison for three years, and is a native of the wolf country. He has strong survival skills and physical fitness." It's also very good, and the mind is still very simple-I hope I can give me a chance to bring him to meet you. If you still decide to replace it after reading it, it doesn't hurt to do it when the time comes."

"What helper do you need? Can't you choose from among our people?" Black Stone turned his head and asked.

"We have been performing our duties for a long time. Although we know the basics, we are not easy to control each other. What's more, we have also formed inherent behavior patterns and thinking patterns," Octopus said, "If a person with strong plasticity Come in, spend a while, he and I should cooperate more tacitly."

Heishi listened, but still didn't answer.

He smoked quietly, and the light outside the house shone through the smoke on the octopus's face.

After a while, Heishi turned around completely.

He stared at the octopus for a while, and said - "I will send someone to investigate. If he is really as reliable as you said, I will consider it."

Octopus swallowed and wanted to add something, but Heishi waved his hand and let him go out.

At this time, Sha Qi was sitting lonely under the Smelly Ditch Bridge.

Uncle Pi and Uncle Lai are really masters of the world, and they even guessed that sooner or later he would stay under the Smelly Ditch Bridge.

He didn't dare to go to the bar, didn't dare to make phone calls, and of course he didn't dare to look back to see if the people around the small hotel had left.

His body smelled bad, and he fell into a trash can while climbing down from the third floor.He was like a stray Tibetan mastiff, watching the gurgling water beside the stinking ditch until the lights came on, then he found an office building and walked all the way to the top of the building.

He has been to this office building before. The roof is a platform and a water tank, and there is a toilet for security guards.There is a shower in the toilet. A few times when he drank too much, he climbed up to watch the stars, and took a shower in the toilet after watching.

He felt that it should be safe here.

It's a pity that there are people in the toilet.

So he squatted at the door and waited. When the security guard came out after taking a shower, he was startled. Seeing him smelly and hulking, he almost pulled out his baton.

Silly Seven hurriedly said that I would just borrow some water, and then he wiped his face and said that I came to you to wash it, you don't remember me?

Probably the homeless man who came up to take a bath was not the only one, the security guard stared at him nervously for a long time, although his feet moved away, there was no sudden realization in his eyes.

When he came out of the toilet, the security guard had already left. Silly Qi thought about where to go, and he simply washed his clothes, climbed onto the top of the water tank shirtless, and stood on the side watching the night view of the wolf country.

Sha Qi likes this place very much, it's like a child has a secret base.When he came out of prison on the first day, he went up for the first time. On that day, he learned that his house was demolished and his mother's jar was gone, so he chose the tallest building to go upstairs, hoping to find the meaning of life on it. .

If you can't find it, jump down and pull it down.

Of course he didn't jump, he thought about his life for a long time, and finally went downstairs to the casino in the North District.

The buildings in the wolf country are generally not high, and the lights of thousands of houses can be seen as far as the eye can see.The cars on the road flew past one by one, forming a path of flickering light.The blood tung tree on the side of the road was growing crookedly, and it seemed that it was not so ferocious when it was hit by the orange light.

How clear the sky was that day, as it is today, with stars scattered across the black night like diamonds in a jeweler's window.

The moon hung high among the stars, it looked at Shaqi, and Silly looked at it, until Siqi's neck was sore, and he lay down on the uneven cement.

Then, Sha Qi will slowly calm down.

The same is true now.

Silly Seven didn't know where he should go next, whether he should follow Octopus's advice and leave the Wolf Country, when he could ask Uncle Lai to get some cash, or even if he could go down to buy breakfast the next day, Could it be that there was a circle of ambushes at gunpoint, just waiting for him to appear in broad daylight unkempt.

Silly Seven is very confused, and misses his mother a little bit.

Of course, the previous smell of octopus also remained on the tip of his nose, making his heart itch and his lower body itch.

He suddenly felt that Octopus didn't really want to kill him.Whether it was the time at the bar before, or this time at the hotel today.After all, with the skill of an octopus, even if he can't subdue himself, he can definitely delay the time until the scene is controlled and he is controlled.

But Octopus let him go.

At least remind him to go, remind him how to go to survive.

Maybe octopuses aren't that bad after all.

Of course, this can also be said in reverse—perhaps, Sha Qi is not so ugly, so ugly that the octopus doesn't want to take a second look, and wants to kill him.

This shows that Sha Qi still has some personal charm or residual value, and the octopus is so arrogant, naturally he will not admit it frankly.

Thinking of this, Sha Qi couldn't help but smirk twice.Facing the cold wind at night in the wolf country, I closed my eyes exhausted.

(31)

Silly Seven was woken up by the cold.

When I woke up, it happened to be early in the morning, and the sun hadn't come out yet, and the sun was dyeing the sky red from the back of the building.Sha Qi likes to watch the sunrise since he was a child.That gave him a new feeling, and every time the sky was illuminated, he felt that the sins and evils of last night were wiped away.

A misty mist hung over the land of the wolf country.It was a square with a steeple many years ago, and now it is a high-rise building.The morning glow pierces the mist, and the dawn shines into the pupils.

It was the same with him sitting in the police station the day he was arrested.At night, he was pulled into a police car and taken away. He was locked up at the police station overnight, half asleep and half awake for several hours, and took a few minutes to record a statement and take pictures.

Then he raised his head, and saw a ray of sunlight coming in from the small window.

The sun shines on his face, turning the gloomy office into a pure land of redemption.

His mother had told him that he was born in the morning.According to the customs of the wolf country, the child born in the morning is the leader.

He is destined to achieve a career, so he should fight instead of studying now.He is lazy and does not work now, he should fight.He has no plans for the future, no clues, so he should fight.

It's a pity that he still hasn't improved much after being beaten.So he was supposed to be born in the middle of the night, but he just stayed out of bed and turned into a baby in the morning.
