dogfight

, he was holding the knife, with his head down, paddling boredly on the ground.

"Jo, is everyone else here?"

Jo raised her head, unabashedly showing her joy at seeing Alex, "Boss, you are here. Everyone you notified tonight is here except Ford."

He stood up and followed Alex, and the two entered the building one after the other.

Before entering the door, Jo suddenly called out to the tall man in front of him: "Boss, Ken—"

"Ok?"

"He doesn't look like—well—one of us. Do you know him, sir, have you looked up his history?"

Alex turned to look at him: "What do you think?"

Jo swallowed, blushed and said, "I'm afraid, if he knows our secret here..."

Alex smiled. He patted Jo on the head and said slowly, "No matter what his origin is, he is mine now, so I want him to be safe and sound, understand Jo? You can't touch him."

No matter how good Ken is, in this strange place where there are no weaklings, he will never be able to deal with this group of people alone.

Alex was going to keep him because he really needed him.

The young man under him blushed, he only half-understood Alex's words, nodded in disappointment and a little stubbornly.

They pushed open the door, and a group of bored youths were already sitting in the spacious room.Some people are boringly playing with the knife in their hands, some people are sleeping with their legs on the conference table in front of them, some people are fiddling with computers, or chatting together.

Most of these people have followed Alex since they were teenagers. Their backgrounds are different, but the only thing they have in common is that they are all orphans that Alex picked up from everywhere, and they are taken care of by men and become his loyal supporters.

"The boss is here." Jo yelled, and everyone who should be awake woke up and quieted down.

The people present sat down around the conference table that could seat more than a dozen people, and the person farthest jumped directly onto the table and sat down cross-legged on the table.

"Tim, get the fuck down on me."

"WOW~Jo, don't be so serious, you see Alex didn't say anything." Tim stretched nonchalantly.

"You—"

"Okay, you two, be quiet, don't waste time." The young man wearing glasses sitting in front of the laptop stopped the two people who were arguing.

"Why isn't Ford here yet?"

Jo, who was stared at by a group of people at the same time, immediately became angry: "Why are you looking at me, I'm not a roundworm in his stomach."

"You don't have to wait for him." Alex folded his hands: "I want you to keep an eye on Youzhen, how is the situation now?"

"Boss, you guessed right, the key has already been obtained by Bart's men, but Bart didn't realize that this thing is actually a hot potato, and now he is busy looking for another home."

"Very good," Alex squeezed his chin: "I said long ago that you don't need to fight with those idiots, as it will make him feel unsafe in anyone's hands."

Half a month ago, people from all sides were fighting for the key to the desert. Now, except for the government who is still keen on that thing, everyone else has suddenly realized the situation-they find that this thing is useless to them.

They don't know what it is used for, whether the so-called treasure is real or not, or even any secrets about it.

The most difficult thing is that it will be disturbed by the governments of all parties. It is not the best policy to hand over the keys to any party.

At this time, I can't wait to get this thing away quickly, who will spend all my time trying to grab it?

A key that can open the door to the treasure.Hehe, where is the treasure? Alex smiled smugly.

Only he knows the real secret of the key and how to find this legendary treasure, and only he, Alex, can open that door.

"Bill, you contact Bart. I'll go to You Town to trade with him in two days." Alex was in a very cheerful mood. From the moment he released the desert key smoke bomb to the present, everything was under his calculation and control, which made him It feels great.

"OK, Boss." The young man in glasses who was typing on the computer raised his head: "Who do you need to accompany you?"

"Boss, I'm with you!" Jo stood up "swish", and volunteered to look at Alex, her eyes full of anticipation.In all external actions that can follow Alex, Jo is the most active person, and generally no one competes with him for such opportunities.

Alex glanced at him.

We all know how deeply Jo adores, even obsesses, Alex.How could a man fail to notice his undisguised thoughts.

But Alex never made a move on his subordinates.

That kind of relationship might bring him trouble in the future, and he didn't want to take any risk.

Moreover, an unscrupulous and unspecialized person like Alex, once he gives Jo a chance now, will definitely make him hurt in the future.This is not the result he is happy to see.

Besides, it was indeed inconvenient for him to take Jo with him this time.

"No, Bart is very cautious, he won't welcome visitors with a group of men." Alex rejected Jo's proposal without any room for negotiation.

"But, you alone—"

The man leaned back on the chair, pushed aside a few strands of curly hair on his forehead and smiled at Jo, "Who said I'm alone?"

Jo paused and immediately thought of the answer: "You want to bring Ken with you?"

When he came to this conclusion, a nameless fire rose in his chest.

No matter who Alex brought with him, he would have no objection, but the other party said that he would not bring any of his subordinates.It seemed that the little boy of unknown origin had taken the position next to Alex before they knew it—the position closest to him, the closest and the one he trusted with all his heart.

Alex ignored Jo, turned his chair around, and asked Bill, "Then, how are you doing with the most important thing?"

Bill clicked the mouse a few times and turned the computer in his hand towards him.

"This is the map of the underground passage leading there. Tim and I have drawn it up, and now Ed and the others are in charge of equipment and post-production preparations."

"Very good." Alex glanced at the computer screen and said suddenly. "You're free after this order." "

Everyone in the room froze suddenly, and after a few seconds of being dumb, Qiqi looked at him in disbelief.

"Alex, what are you talking about?" Finally someone asked the question everyone wanted to know.At least everyone heard it, which means they are not hallucinating.

"I said, maybe at that time each of you will be able to share money that you can't spend in your lifetime. Tim, you can go to the Pacific Ocean and buy a small island. If you are happy, you can have a group of wives and concubines, have a large group of sons, and form two Soccer team, spend the rest of the money as you like. Of course, so do everyone else."

"...Fuck your wives and concubines!" Tim yelled, standing up from the table: "I don't want it, Alex, are you crazy, you want to disband us?!"

The man stood on the ground, and from the angle below, he stared directly at the angry tall young man on the table with his deep eagle-like eyes: "How long have you been here? Jo followed me when she was eight years old, and now she is 20 years old. Tim, you are too soon!" I have been with me for ten years, and everyone else, even Ford, who joined last, has been here for five years. You don’t want to leave, do you want to retire in this place where no shit?”

"I said, Alex, you don't have to be like this." Bill next to the man interrupted the solemn atmosphere, "Look, Jo is about to cry. What happened to you is so sudden, to be honest, we can't accept it... Let's talk about it later Bring it up."

He pushed Jo in front of Alex.

The other party's red eyes could barely contain the rolling tears, but he looked at Alex without saying a word, his eyes were full of grievances, doubts and anger of being abandoned and betrayed.

Alex sighed, and he took out a handkerchief from his clothes: "Jo, you can be with Ford, if you don't like him, there are many things you can do. I can't tie you up forever."

Jo remained silent, letting him gently and patiently wipe away his tears.It's just that he just stared at Alex like that, which made the man a little frustrated.

He is a heinous villain, but fortunately he has some conscience left for these loyal men.

But it seemed even to them that he ended up being the villain.

"Okay, you go out first, I still have something to say to Bill, we will continue with the rest of today's business tomorrow."

With some headaches, he drove out a group of unwilling and even anxious and angry people. Alex turned his head and looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the window.

Bill closed the door, walked back to Alex, pulled up a chair and sat down.

"Are you in trouble? Before you deliberately released the news of the key of the desert, trying to steal it out of other people's hands, and then try to get the key, and finally complete your treasure plan──Although things seem to be going well now, But that's not the case, is it?"

Alex smiled at him: "Although what you said is not entirely wrong, you might as well say that I have met true love."

Bill raised his eyebrows in surprise, and laughed: "True love? Who? The kid you brought back? I don't believe it."

"Oh?" The man in front of him raised his eyebrows: "Why do you think so?"

"You can't feel the flow of 'love' between you," Bill shrugged. "He doesn't look like he can spend his life with you."
