Chapter 16 Their Path

Appropriate compromise can always be exchanged for a way out,

Only when there is a way out can we take the next step,

No matter how narrow the road is.

Anton sat quietly in the West Wing and listened to Ershisi's "talk about life" with him.But the other party neither talked about pursuits nor dreams, but only talked about trivial things in his own life and anecdotes about work. In each and every incident, there were seemingly inextricable and inextricably linked stories of the Jiang family father and son. figure.

Anton: "Father and son of the Jiang family?"

"Yes." Twenty-four added water to their teacups, and the delicate and bright green bamboo leaves rolled up and down with the water, "Jiang Yi also has an older brother, who also went with his master and his wife in the accident."

He said that the two boys in Jiang's family are smart, beautiful, and good boys, but they are very skinny.I went to the regiment headquarters to play, stole Wenwan walnuts from the chief, smashed open the walnut kernels, and was caught and said it was not delicious at all.

Twenty Four pulled out a photo from his wallet.In the photo, there is a back view of a man in the uniform of the Messenger Corps, and two children, one big and one small, standing in the corner with dissatisfied faces.

"This is what the master is training them after they were caught." Twenty Four smiled.

When he first joined the job, he often helped the master take care of the children.The level of secrecy of the messenger group is too high, and the special nature of their work makes them have very little contact with the outside world. Most of the members are single, and the two young men of the Jiang family have become the favorites of the group.

An accident happened not long after this photo was taken, and Jiang Yi in the photo looked only three or four years old.

Anton knew that Twenty-Four was attacking his heart, so he aroused his empathy.He is a living person of flesh and blood, and it would be a lie to say that he was not touched at all, but Anton was thinking of another thing.

Why can a broker get something that the messenger group can't get?

There are more than a dozen guns outside. Is it just to force them to submit so exaggeratedly?That directly cut off the livelihood of the passers-by was more likely to choke the life of the little prince than such a positive approach.

Or, this is just a scene for Jiang Yi to see.

You see, my son, uncle is very responsible. Uncle will find you a wild way if you can't get through the official way. Don't worry, there will be a way.

The most important thing for patients is hope.Jiang Yi had no hope, so Ersi created a hope for him.

It’s like another child in their circus, whose leg was trampled by an elephant during a performance, and the director told the child: “It’s okay, just eat two meals of bone soup and you’ll be fine.”

The child drank bone soup for a long time, but he was still limping.Later, the regiment was really poor, the bone soup was gone, and the child accepted the fact that he would be crippled for the rest of his life.

"I understand." Anton looked at Twenty-Four.

At this time, the sun was already in the west, and the late summer sunshine was gentle and golden, covering the old courtyard like twenty-four gently protecting Jiang Yi.

Anton asked very flatteringly, "Is there a time limit for this job?"

Twenty-four's calm eyes flashed a hint of appreciation, "There are no hard and fast rules, but the sooner the better."

Procrastinate, procrastinate day by day, it is better to live in hope than in despair.

"I'll try my best." Anton stood up and put his hands in his pockets, "But the ugly words are out of the way, and I may not be willing to help if the little farmer is not exposed. It is unreliable to threaten him. He is a professor of medicine. He is so anxious that he stabs me both I’ll explain the needles. You can only take stuff, and you’ll cover all the expenses. As for how to get the medicine on Xinting Island, let’s take the first step, and now there’s no horoscope, and if it’s too far away, it’s bragging.”

"Okay." Twenty Four said happily, "Just say what you want."

Anton: "Give me a ton of kiwifruit first, yellow-hearted."

twenty-four: ...

Anton has been thinking about this kind of imported fruit for a long time. The big farts are discounted at seven or eight yuan apiece. This time, if someone pays the bill, he must eat it first to enjoy himself.

The messenger group has credit, and a small truck was sent the next day.

Anton stood in front of the passenger building to sign for the fruit, and at the same time signed for a person.

"My name is Ma Krypton. Twenty Four asked me to call you."

"Are you also from the Messenger Corps?"

"No, I'm self-employed."

The brokers of the Running Order Gang are self-employed.Anton had already guessed that Twenty-Four must have someone behind him, so he wasn't too surprised.Looking at Ma Krypton up and down, the young man is very energetic. He has a public face when he is expressionless, and his eyes are crooked when he smiles. He is thin but full of vitality.

Brokers who dare to run Dan Gang have housekeeping skills.Ma Krypton is a sniper, specializing in field work, sometimes gathering, sometimes hunting mutant beasts.

"What do you all collect?" Anton met the runner for the first time, and wondered if there was something wrong with the soil?What good things can grow.

Ma Krypton is a happy person, "We pick Zimenghua. This kind of flower is unique there. It is equivalent to the 3.0 version of poppy. It has a strong hallucinogenic effect. But it only grows in the Great Rift Valley of the old city. It was only opened, and it was named after Ziyemenghui because of this. There is fog and miasma in the Great Rift Valley, and it is said that it is haunted at night, so few people dare to pick flowers, and the income is good. Do you want to try it? Let’s do it Do some private work?"

Before Anton could speak, the fat man who was squatting next to rub the kiwi fruit was not happy, "You think we are playing in the past! You also run private jobs, it would be great if you can understand the serious tasks!"

The fat man was transferred by the little prince to work as a mechanic for Anton.The current Anton is different from a month ago. Although he has been in the industry for a short time, he is considered to be the number one in the industry. Team up.

But Anton refused the team doctor.He has a good physique, and he still has a lot of medicine in his hand that was raided from Xiaokenghuo last time, so it is unnecessary to drag a team doctor.Now that there is Ma Krypton again, he simply kicked out the peripherals assigned by the little prince.

He seeks refinement but not excess.Fatty's skills are well known to him, and Ma Krypton, who can be favored by Twenty Four, is definitely not an ordinary person. The two of them are enough.

Anton started stuffing strange fruits into the memory ball given by Lu Jiahua, while Fatty and Ma Krypton crouched beside them and circled around.

Where are you from?what is it call?

I'm Luo Gu, I'm from West City.

Wow!You are Master Luo!

Consider you have good eyesight.Where are you from?I haven't heard the name much.

Hehe, because I am thin, everyone calls me the nickname Ma Houer, but not many people call me by my first name.

Fuck!Are you a monkey?

The fat man slapped Anton excitedly, "He's a horse monkey! That's the one, I told you last time, there was a sniper, the one who shot mutant beasts in a row one and a half kilometers away."

Anton kicked him onto the truck, "Move the fruit!"

A group of brokers who had been hanging out in the small bamboo forest for a long time came up and surrounded him.

Qin Guan commanded the crowd: "Come, come, help Dongge carry the fruits! Mr. Wei said, this is the benefit that Dongge gives to everyone, and one person and one box are not allowed to grab. Hey, who the hell, don't jump in line!"

Anton's face darkened instantly.When did he say that he would give benefits?

Wei Tao sat indifferently behind the boss's desk, his black and shiny wolf head unruffled, "You can't eat so many kiwifruits at once, and if they rot, they will be thrown away. Why don't you share them with everyone."

Anton: "I can set up a stall outside."

Wei Tao: "The passer-by has no acquaintances in the urban management."

Anton sneered, just about to say that I don't need you to worry about selling things, when Wei Tao asked: "Have you ever thought about what you will do if the day comes when you can't do it anymore?"

Someone just opened the door and came in and told Wei Tao that they would send the fruit to the old brothers first.

Anton immediately understood that Wei Tao was using his things to respect the elderly, and to give benefits to those helpless brokers.Can't help but find it funny, "You are really a clean stream in the circle, the company is my home, happy you and me."

Wei Tao said calmly: "It's not so hypocritical, we just fulfilled our responsibilities and obligations." He raised his eyes and looked at Anton with some doubts, "You are not going to work because you are waiting for me to give you Send out little red flowers?"

Outside the building, the brokers who were busy distributing the fruit suddenly heard a clanging and fighting sound coming from Mr. Wei's office. After a while, Anton strode out and pointed at Fatty and Ma Krypton, "Go, let's go!" Go to work!"

A group of brokers were left looking at each other.

Qin Guan slipped quietly to the door of Wei Tao's office, looked around, and saw that Mr. Wei, whose "hair can be cut off and hair can't be messed up", was pushing up a chair with a hairy head...

Anton really did it!

On the other side, Anton and the others traveled all the way and came to the passage provided by Ershisi.

Looking at the iron gate in front of him, the fat man was very nervous.I zipped up the jacket for a while, and then unzipped it a little bit, "Isn't it too hasty for us to go like this? Do you want to wear goggles? Do you need an oxygen bottle? Oh, I suddenly remembered that I didn't bring some tools, or I Go back and get..."

Anton kicked him in.

A subway train rumbled past him, and some of the passengers queuing up on the platform looked curiously at the rear of the train, and Anton turned back and closed the barrier gate that prohibited passage.

Unlike Fatty, this is the first time for Ma Krypton. Shuttle passages are commonplace for him. He calmly walked to the iron gate and said with a smile: "Who would have thought that there would be space passages hidden at both ends of the subway station? Brother Dong, after passing by, you have what's the plan?"

As a peripheral guard, he had to control the movements of the frontline executors.

Anton: "My plan is no plan."

Traveling through space, the galaxy is still bright.Anton passed over the human figures outlined by the aurora belt, and stretched out his hand to stroke the last silvery-white back, which was shattered into a sky full of stars, like a strange and gorgeous firework.

He was no longer as afraid of the ensuing suffocation as he was the first time. He stood in a small shop in an instant, and saw the fat man chatting with an old man with a pipe in his mouth.

"Where's Ma Krypton?"

The fat man said he hadn't come yet, so Anton walked to the store door and looked out.They were in the black market they had visited last time, from here they could vaguely see the signboard of Lu Jiahua's Dahua store.

As expected of an official channel, the entry and exit location is comfortable, concealed and convenient. It is not like a wild way for passers-by, either jumping into a pit or dam, or airborne into a changing room.

Anton waited for a while, came back and checked the watch with Fatty, "Ma Krypton came here before me, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

The fat man looked confused, "I don't know either."

The old man with a pipe leisurely handed over a sentence: "Everyone travels through different passages, some are full of flowers, and some are full of flames and knives. It's like everyone's fate, where and how far they can go. , has already been doomed.”

The fat man immediately acted like a pilgrim who met a master, copied a small maza and sat opposite the old man, "Then why are all the fruits I saw when I crossed the passage?"

The old man raised his eyelids and glanced at him, "It proves that you should lose weight and eat less meat."

"What are you..."

With a bang, Ma Krypton finally came and fell over.

Struggling to get up from the ground, Ma Krypton turned pale and smiled apologetically, "Sorry for the long wait."

The fat man hurried over to help him.

The old man looked like I knew everything, "Son, don't come back when you go back, your way has come to an end."

I'm tired of this kind of pretending to be an outsider.

Anton squeezed out a "max repair" of the embassy group from the storage ball, and flicked it into Ma Krypton's mouth, "I have the final say on whether his road will end, you old rookie, don't force it. Let's go! "

The medicine given by the embassy was strong, and Ma Krypton regained his vitality in seconds, and ran after Anton happily.

The fat man pointed at Anton's back, and showed off to the old man: "My boss, isn't it awesome?"

black market.

Anton strode towards Lu Jiahua's shop, and Ma Krypton followed behind him, watching the crowd vigilantly.

Although Ma Krypton is young, he is an experienced broker.He entered the industry as soon as he retired from the army, and quickly became the No. 1 runner in the circle by relying on the skills he cultivated in the reconnaissance company.But having the ability of No.1 does not mean having the physique of No.1. If Anton hadn't given him the medicine today, his career as a broker would have come to an end, as the old man said.

This is also the reason why he took over the job as soon as the twenty-four first approached him.He knew that something was wrong with his body, so he wanted to get a big one last before retiring from the circle. Even if he lost his life, he could at least leave a sum of money for his paralyzed old lady.

However, Anton's behavior lit up Ma Krypton's already bleak life.Looking at his back, Ma Krypton's heart became hot, "Brother Dong, do you know Mark Anthony?"

"do not know."

"He is the number one general under Julius Caesar, super capable fighter, and has made countless achievements throughout his life. Why don't you add Ni to your name? Both of us are Mark Anthony!"

At this time, the fat man squeezed over and rolled his eyes, "Why do you need to add a Ni to our Dong Ge's good name? Besides, what's so good about Marc Anthony? Isn't he being used as a stallion by Cleopatra, and finally being dragged down by her to death?" Yes. Brother Dong, let me tell you, a woman is a disaster, and Mark Anthony was really fierce when he was with Caesar, and then..."

Unexpectedly, a man with a square face and dark skin stood in front of them, staring at Anton: "It's him, do it!"

Four men with big arms and round waists surrounded him.

Five against three...

Anton felt that he was going to feel sorry for Yang Xiaofeng here.
