Chapter 151: The Adversary (66)
No... I shouldn't have gone out. At least not for now. Because this is the point, and since they are here, they must have a clear purpose. And that purpose must have something to do with this hotel, so no matter what the guy named Reed was up to at the moment, he wouldn't leave here.
Thinking of this, I took out my mobile phone and dialed the old guy's phone first. As soon as I got through there, I said, "There seems to be something wrong with the other party." The man, Reed, left the hotel lobby alone. ”
"Leaving alone? That Yankee is still in place? The old fellow asked.
"Yes. He didn't move. But before he answered a phone call. I said.
"Don't worry. Do your best to describe what just happened. Try to be as careful as possible, especially if you find it strange. By the way, I would like to warn you that if there is any change in the number of them, it is likely that another group of people will have sneaked into the hotel to monitor them, so you have to keep an eye on the others and don't focus all your attention on those people. The old guy said.
"Okay." I said yes and looked back to see that there were no special people around me at the moment. The people who had walked by had already walked into a café behind me, and through the glass vitrines I could see the elderly people who had just come up sitting around a table chatting and smiling and drinking coffee.
After making sure there was nothing out of the ordinary, I quickly recalled what had happened, then organized my words and said, "That Yankee felt like he had received an important phone call. He looked a little excited, and then whispered a few words to Reed. After that, Reed left the others and left the hotel lobby. “
"And then the American and the others stayed in the hotel lobby as if they were fine?" The old guy asked.
"Yes." I said, looking down, "They're still there." And the Yankee looked very laid-back. I'm sitting on the couch reading a magazine in the same place where you used to read the newspaper. “
The old guy was silent on the other side of the phone for a moment before he said, "What about the others?" What is their current status? “
"Others?" I looked at the others, "Nothing has changed." Those people were all around the Yankees, and there was no special movement. “
"What do you mean by nothing special?" The old guy asked, a little strangely, "Do you mean they're all on standby?" “
"Like... It seems to be ... I looked at the men again. Actually, it's hard for me to define what these people are doing at the moment, except for the Yankees, the two guys who were with him from the beginning were standing with the waiter and discussing something. They don't look like they're talking about something secret, it's more like they're chatting. And what about the two people who came in later? The two men are a little different, they are closer to the Yankees, and they feel a bit like Brokhin, guarding but not attracting attention. Could it be that these two guys are defending that Yankee?
"What is it like?" The old fellow asked, looking a little dissatisfied.
I retracted my gaze and said, "I just can't be sure." They are in different states and don't know what exactly they are going to do. ”
"Okay... The old guy sighed and said, "You keep an eye on them first." I'll make some arrangements right away. Waiting for my instructions. ”
"Understood." After I answered, the old guy hung up.
I put away the phone, and just then, a group of people walked in through the hotel door again. I immediately looked at the two guys who were standing not far from the Yankees, and I hoped to see some different reactions from their movements. But the two men just looked at the people who had come in, then looked away, and continued to look at the inside of the hotel lobby.
I looked at the people who had come in, and they quickly split into two groups, one headed straight into the lobby, while the other, about four or five people, walked up the stairs to the platform where I was. Among them, two men and one woman, dressed in fashion, walked up with a smile and a smile. Behind them were two men who bowed their heads and said nothing, and walked up behind them in silence. I immediately noticed the two men, but they didn't even look at them and just lowered their heads and walked forward, as if thinking about something. A moment later, the two men and a woman, who were talking and laughing, walked into the café, and the two who did not speak walked into another bar-like shop.
I looked at the people below again, and they were still there, just like before, without any changes. I can't help but think of what the old guy just said: "There may be another group of people who have sneaked into the hotel and launched monitoring... This sentence. It dawned on me that the old guys were talking about something that was getting more and more likely, or I wouldn't have been able to explain what the hell these guys were doing. So if they sneak in, who will these people be? Where will it be?
I looked back at the café, and through the glass window, the two men and a woman who had just come up sat at a table next to the old man's house, laughing and ordering something with the waiter. It shouldn't be these people, they don't have that feeling that makes me nervous at all, like compared to the people around the Yankees below, they don't have that feeling different from ordinary people at all. I turned to look at the bar where the two men went, but the two men were more likely... But it's just a possibility. In fact, at the moment, apart from the Yankees and a few guys around him, I had absolutely no idea of anyone suspicious in the area I could see, because I couldn't see anything at all.
At this time, the phone vibrated again, and I took out the phone and looked at it, it was the old guy's number. I immediately got on and heard the old guy say, "Where are you now?" “
"The second floor, the second floor that comes up the spiral staircase from the lobby. It's where you originally planned to come for a drink. I said.
"How's it going there? Is there a situation? The old guy asked, as if walking.
"Nope. Nothing. I looked left and right, and I saw some people drinking afternoon tea. “
"Afternoon tea?" The old guy asked rhetorically and didn't say anything more, and after a moment of silence he hung up.
I put away the phone and looked down, the Yankees were still there, but I saw two of Brokhin's men appear in the hotel lobby, and the two of them walked directly to the service desk after glancing at the Yankees. At that moment, there was the sound of footsteps behind me, and I quickly turned my head to see a man in a top hat walking towards me, but this man was an old fellow I knew. Not far behind him, Brokhin and another of Brokhin's men were standing looking at us.
It's a little late today. After that, the chapter will be too late. It's so busy...
Thanks to the old wolf for cutting the fat!!!
