Top Secret Entrustment [Rebirth]

After getting the explanation, Lu Cen let go of his hand, and the tense atmosphere finally eased.

For the other three people present, what Xiao Yu said was a completely unfamiliar term, except for Archimedes, a pure newcomer who hadn't touched the door, Lu Cen and Luo Yifan had never heard anything about Eastern News of the region's 'five-year agreement'.

That means its secrecy is thorough enough to fool organizations and FBI intelligence professionals.

A gathering that requires a world-famous painting of the level of "Mona Lisa" as an admission ticket, and only absolutely outstanding thieves can be invited.

Luo Yifan weighed this extremely harsh prerequisite calmly. According to his memory, after the Louvre was stolen in his previous life, Shaw, who shocked the whole world in one fell swoop, disappeared for a year. For this party of thieves that was sealed off airtight?

A mysterious invitation once every five years, attended by the famous top thieves in the eastern part of the United States. Those are all felons on the fbi confidential list. Everyone is carrying billions of dollars in stolen goods, and they can hide the truth from the world to host the region Even though he was no longer an agent, Luo Yifan was still shocked.

Xiao Yu leaned back on the bed wearily, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his pale lips were pursed, the blood from the wound stained the hospital gown, the needle inserted in the back of his hand was also crooked, the blood flowed back into the hose, and the whole body People look miserable.

Lu Cen glanced down, then turned to Archimedes and said, "Call Phoenix over here."

"Do... what?" Archimedes asked worriedly.

Lu Cen was overwhelmed by this guy's comprehension ability, and suppressed his anger and said, "Change his medicine."

Archimedes was taken aback for a moment, and he was relieved when he realized it, and ran out of the ward.

The corner of Xiao Yu's mouth twitched and he almost laughed, but since he was temporarily 'unknown', he had no choice but to put on a docile and weak appearance, and peeked at Lu Cen pitifully.

"Lulu?" He called weakly, "What is the result depending on the situation?"

Lu Cen didn't speak. He unbuttoned his suit a little irritably. He sat sideways on the edge of the hospital bed and took his infusion hand. He skillfully removed the adhesive tape and corrected the position of the needle until the blood in the hose flowed back into the blood vessel. He reattached the adhesive tape. Okay, lift up the quilt and put Xiao Yu's hand inside.

Xiao Yu couldn't hold back, burst out laughing, and fell silent again under Lu Cen's slap.

Lu Cen's face was dark, and he really wanted to beat this guy up, but seeing that his injury was really bad, and he couldn't help himself, he didn't know what to do with this bastard.

"You didn't answer all the questions, don't try to fool me." Lu Cen looked at him sternly and said.

It seemed that he would not report to the organization anymore, Xiao Yu's hanging heart dropped back to his stomach, a pair of beautiful black eyes curled up with a smile, but his tone was very serious, and he said: "I know what you are referring to, in fact, let's cooperate After so long, you should have noticed it long ago, right?"

Lu Cen hummed flatly, "You learned this skill from him?"

"No, he is not a few years older than me, he is considered a senior brother." Xiao Yu said.

"Who is your teacher?" Luo Yifan asked.

"Cornell Schuman, the former god of robbers in the eastern region," Xiao Yu meaningfully looked at the two partners one by one, "You may not know his name, but you must know the cases he has completed. To be honest, the teacher is here More famous in the last century."

Luo Yifan suddenly realized something, "You just said that three years ago, Yu Xicheng killed everyone except you, including your teacher?"

Xiao Yu nodded slowly, and Lu Cen said, "Three years ago, he let you go, and he didn't kill you yesterday, and he paid a lot of money to help you qualify to participate in the eastern region's thieves exchange meeting. What is his purpose?"

"I only knew about this one night earlier than you, and it's all just speculation now," Xiao Yu said, "The so-called 'five-year agreement' refers to the cycle of holding exchange meetings. Regional gatherings are a tradition of the thieves industry, and there are many purposes. , but the most fundamental thing is to select the next person in power to maintain regional order, and the term of office is also five years."

Luo Yifan said: "Is your teacher the previous ruler?"

Xiao Yu nodded in affirmation, and continued: "It's not easy to gather well-known thieves, the selection cost is very high, and usually requires the linkage of several regions, so even if there is an accident during the term of office, it is impossible to temporarily replace people."

"The previous God of Thieves passed away, and the position of god has been vacant for three years. The successor can control the black market and theft activities in the entire eastern region. This is probably the purpose of the senior brother."

Lu Cen frowned, looked at Xiao Yu, "He wants you to help?"

"Help him? Heh... I'm afraid I'm not qualified enough," Xiao Yu said with a helpless smile on his face, "If you say that you didn't kill him just to keep me to help him obtain this position, this kind of reason is too far-fetched. .”

The footsteps in the corridor came from far to near, and the three stopped talking. After a while, Archimedes opened the door of the ward, stood sideways, and let Phoenix come in first.

"Deer, I'm really not talking about you. Shaw lost at least blood last night. No matter what the reason is, you shouldn't choose to teach your subordinates today." Even though he said that, Phoenix didn't mean to blame Lu Cen at all. It was more like a routine reminder, and immediately changed Xiao Yu's gauze after speaking.

Lu Cen stood in front of the window smoking a cigarette, and after a while he said lightly, "I'm sorry."

The movement of his hands stopped, and Phoenix looked up at Lu Cen's back. He was startled slightly in surprise, then showed a clear expression, glanced at Xiao Yu, and joked: "It seems that you really made deer anxious. The one who can make that guy angry, besides the boss, is probably you in the organization."

"You talk too much, Fenghuang." Lu Cen said without turning his head.

Phoenix smiled and didn't speak, and blinked his left eye at Xiao Yu. He was already good-looking, and he was a doctor with a healing profession, so he had a halo when he smiled.

"Have you known each other for a long time?" Intuition told Xiao Yu that Phoenix and Lu Cen should have a good personal relationship, or else he wouldn't dare to poke that guy's Ni Lin knowing that Lu Cen was upset.

"It has been almost ten years since the establishment of the organization, time flies so fast," Phoenix pinned a strand of blond hair behind his ear, and said with a smile, "It's a pity that I have nothing else to do but give you It is a pity that I have not had the opportunity to cooperate with deer since I was unable to deal with the trauma.”

While talking, he quickly bandaged the wound, packed up the extra things, and said: "Stay in bed for a week, minimize activities, and pay attention to turning over. The environment here is absolutely safe. I don't want to have a few more wounds. Condition."

Xiao Yu nodded obediently, and was about to speak, Luo Yifan spoke first, and asked the question that Xiao Yu was most concerned about right now, "When can I be discharged from the hospital?"

Phoenix glanced curiously at the stern newcomer standing in front of the hospital bed, and said with a smile, "Considering the deep wound, my suggestion is at least one month."

Xiao Yu frowned, "It's been too long."

"I'm talking about at least," Phoenix repeated patiently, and continued: "The organization arranges the entrustment for a long time. According to the difficulty of your last entrustment, the vacation may last until Christmas. I will not accept it for reasons other than the organization. , and it's best not to try to disobey the doctor's orders."

"..." A row of ellipses popped up on Xiao Yu's head inexplicably. Being threatened by such a gentle person is the easiest way to make people have all kinds of weird associations. Once the brain hole is opened, Xiao Yu can't help but be filled with all kinds of ideas in his own brain. The bloody scene in the operating room broke out in a cold sweat.

"Understood," Luo Yifan said, "Thank you."

"It's just my job." Phoenix took off his medical gloves and suggested, "Is there any activity tonight, and I'll treat the people in your group to a drink?"

Xiao Yu is now a patient who 'reduces activities as much as possible', so she can only consciously shut up about this kind of thing.

Lu Cen still looked out of the window and said lightly, "I'm not in the mood."

Phoenix was not surprised by this answer at all, and turned to look at Yifan and Archimedes, "Where are you two?"

"I'll stay." Luo Yifan said.

Archimedes always kept in mind that he was 'observing to be determined'. The three bosses in the group were absent, so he must not be able to go, so he quickly sneaked into the corner of the ward, picked up an apple, "I... haven't finished peeling it yet."

Phoenix: "..."

Phoenix pressed his forehead with a headache, and shook his head as if admitting defeat, "I'm off work. There are nurses on duty outside. If you need anything, you can ask them. Feel free to contact me if you have any physical problems. See you tomorrow."

Xiao Yu waved to him, "Bye bye~"

After Phoenix left, Lu Cen extinguished the cigarette butt, turned to look at Xiao Yu, "When will the exchange meeting be held?"

"At the beginning of July," Xiao Yu leaned his head on the pillow, rolled around desperately, and said in grief and indignation, "There is enough time, but I don't want to lie here for a month! One! One! Month! Ah! Why don't you stab me to death?" I?!"

Luo Yifan couldn't stand listening anymore, he picked up a feather pillow and pressed it on Xiao Yu's face.

Xiao Yu: "!!!!"

"What is the general form of notification?" Luo Yifan said in a calm voice, slowly pressing down to ensure that the punishment effect would be achieved without suffocating people, "How do you know that you are invited?"

After asking, Yifan took off the pillow and looked at a certain one expressionlessly.

Finally got air, Xiao Yu took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down. Anaerobic flush appeared on her icy white cheeks, her dark eyes were covered with water, and her forehead was disheveled. She looked like she was abused. Embarrassed beauty.

Mr. Ex-Detective liked it very much.

Xiao Yu gave him a hard look, panted, and said in a muffled voice: "There will be a notice, the form is not certain, but those who are qualified will definitely be invited. You all participated in the theft of the "Mona Lisa". Time can pay attention to things around you, because invitations may appear in various places."

At [-] o'clock that night, Lu Cen took Archimedes back to the apartment, Luo Yifan cut the few apples he had previously peeled into small pieces, and fed them to Xiao Yu with a fork.Xiao Yu was still obsessed with the matter of the pillow, she was angry and refused to look at him, but she would not refuse the apple that came to her mouth.

After nightfall, it was quiet outside, only the sound of waves pushing on the beach could be heard.

This hospital is only open to people within the organization, and there are very few patients. It is usually a high-end nursing home to the outside world. It has a private beach and coconut groves, and will not be disturbed by tourists. It is very suitable for vacation and rest.

Xiao Yu sat on the bed with his ipad and played Hearthstone when he was full of apples, and asked Yifan to play friendly matches with him when he was abused by local tyrants.

Staying away from the fast-paced life of entrustment, the brain does not need to be in a tense state all the time. During the day, Xiao Yu lay on the terrace basking in the sun, drinking freshly squeezed fruit juices of various fruits, and at night, Luo Yifan hugged him to watch talk shows or play games. The whole person became lazy and gained two catties.

This kind of leisurely life passed quickly, half a month later, Luo Yifan had to go back to work, and Xiao Yu was allowed to go for a walk on the beach by Phoenix because the wound was recovering well.

It is June and summer is coming, and the temperature suddenly rises to more than 30 degrees. Fortunately, the frequent sea breeze in Miami does not make it unbearably hot.Xiao Yu held a green coconut to drink coconut juice, wore sunglasses and a straw hat for sun protection, and was wearing Tigger's one-piece pajamas with trousers rolled up to his knees. He stood barefoot on the wet beach, his slender tail was blown by the sea breeze , dangling back and forth behind his ass.

Pushed up by the waves, the cool and moist sea water covered his feet. A small hermit crab carried a conch on his back and struggled to crawl towards the sea at his feet. Every time he climbed a certain distance, he would be hooked back by Xiao Yu's toes.

The bored Mr. Thief shouted angrily while imagining the hermit crab 'You stupid humans! ! ! ! ', while happily bullying it.

Beside him, the sea water took away the gravel, and the mouth of a glass bottle with a cork was gradually revealed. Xiao Yu lowered his eyes and glanced at it, with a sneer on the corner of his lips, ignored it, and continued to play with the crab.

In the office of a building in the city center, Lu Cen, who edited the code, noticed that the monitor screen trembled, an anonymous instant chat window popped up, and the text file automatically began to be transmitted. Lu Cen stared at the file name for a second, and immediately traced back to the other party The ip address directly threw a logic bomb.

A hacker: I'm here to send an invitation letter! ! !

r: Well, but you hacked into my computer.

A certain hacker: A request from the committee! ! !

r: There are ten seconds left.

A Hacker: What did you do?

r: Improved version of cih virus, your motherboard can be retired^_^.

A certain hacker: ...

r: goodbye~

Seeing that the file transfer was complete, Lu Cen tapped the keyboard, kicked out the guy who used the network intrusion, and then clicked on the file saved to the c drive.

On the top floor of the elevator apartment, Archimedes in a pink plaid apron is mopping the floor. The newly weaned chow chow cubs chase him like meatballs, practicing pounce on Archimedes' slippers.

After wiping the floor, the washing machine in the bathroom rang. Archimedes, who was not as good as a dog, had not had time to sit on the sofa, and stood up again to hang the dried clothes on the balcony. The Chow Chow rolled around at his feet , suddenly thumped, lay still, remained silent for a few seconds, and then barked.

The shadows in front of the sun-drenched window rose, and Archimedes looked up out of the window. A large cluster of hydrogen balloons covered the window, and a cardboard tube was tied to the end of the cotton thread.

University of Miami, Computer Center.

It was the afternoon class time, Luo Yifan was the only one in the department office sorting out the lesson plans, the phone placed on the desk vibrated suddenly, the screen lit up, showing the messages from deer and archi in the wechat group respectively.

At the same time, a white pigeon landed on the window sill, cooing and combing the feathers under its wings. Luo Yifan got up and walked over to catch the pigeon, untied the paper roll tied to its foot, threw the pigeon out, and returned After taking a seat, reply on WeChat—[Received].

Feeling the phone in his trouser pocket vibrate several times in a row, Xiao Yu finally let go of the poor hermit crab, bent down, dug out the half-exposed glass bottle, pulled out the cork, and pulled out the bottle which was sealed with a wax seal. invitation letter.
