The squirrel-like man looked at the ten dollars in my hand, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and sat back in his chair. I sat next to him, and to be honest, I didn't know much about gaming, and I didn't know much about it. After sitting down, I was still groping for how to operate, and I finally finished selecting someone, and as soon as I came up, I was killed by the other party. At this time, it caused a circle of people around to laugh, and the man asked with a cigarette in his mouth, "Brother, you can't do this skill." ”

I smiled and said, "What do you call it?" ”

"What? Want to apprentice? He teased.

"No, but you look like a friend of mine, and I'm here to find him. I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know if he's changed much now. I said in passing.

"Oh? Who are you looking for? I'm familiar with this area, and I might know the person you're looking for. He asked as he expertly manipulated his waist pole.

"My friend's name is a little weird, his name is Squirrel." As soon as these words came out, I saw that the man's face changed slightly.

"Oh? The name Squirrel is quite strange, I don't seem to have heard it, what's your name? I can ask someone to spread your name so that you can find it. He began to trick me about my origins, and I didn't think to hide it, so I replied bluntly: "My name is Ba Xiaoshan." ”

The wrist of the man next to him immediately stopped, and the character on the screen immediately stopped moving. I killed his first character with a lame maneuver, and he stiffened and didn't move, his eyes staring straight ahead, his whole body motionless as if he were frozen. A circle of people next to him talked strangely, and two thugs came up and whispered, "Big brother, what's wrong?" ”

And at this time, I had already killed his second character with my last character, and I didn't even release a trick, and I was passively beaten the whole time. I was interested in playing the game, muttering, "Hey, how do you do it?" ”

The man next to me relieved himself at this time, approached me and said, "I thought about it, there is no one called a gray squirrel here, you may be in the wrong place......

And at this moment, I somehow came up with a trick and killed the last figure of the man next to me, and I actually won! The dozen or so onlookers around were all dumbfounded, I lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "Brother, don't pretend, your expression has betrayed you a long time ago." ”

The man just wanted to stand up but stiffened when he heard my words, and then slowly crossed his fingers together, turned around and shouted, "Look at what? Haven't you ever seen a fight or lose? Get lost! ”

He suddenly became angry, and although the people around him were inexplicable, they didn't want to cause trouble, so they simply dispersed. Soon there were just two of us left on the machine, and I was smoking, and he looked at me nervously and asked, "You're here to kill me?" I didn't mean to leak your whereabouts, it was Deputy Director Xia's people who came to me, and I couldn't ......help it."

"You don't have to say anything to me, just say it to her." I pointed behind me, and when Squirrel looked up, I saw Yang Ran, who was looking angry, staring at it. Yang Ran rushed over in three steps and two steps, grabbed the gray squirrel's shoulder, grabbed his clothes and shouted, "Go!" ”

The three of us just walked out of the game hall and came to the alley behind which there were not many people. Yang Ran saw that there was no one around, so he directly pulled out his pistol and put it on the chin of the gray squirrel, the gray squirrel's eyes were straight, and he hurriedly raised his hand and said, "You can't blame me for this matter, I can't help it!" ”

"Hehe, it's the same as the Shitai tragedy, right? Betrayed everyone in order to survive! Yang Ran shouted angrily, I stood at the mouth of the alley and looked around to prevent anyone from seeing this scene.

"Even if I don't say that they won't survive, I said that at least I can save my life, and I don't want to die!" He raised his hands and said timidly.

"Don't mention the past, you betrayed me this time!" She shouted with her pistol raised.

"I didn't want to betray you, but Deputy Director Xia's people came to ask me, I just told my guess, and I actually didn't know where you were hiding! I've had a bad life in the past few years, Deputy Director Xia didn't give me a chance to get ahead, I have an idle job, in fact, I'm a waste, playing games in the game machine hall all day long, usually pretending to be a big brother, I also want to be reused, but I don't have a chance! Yang Ran stared at him angrily, but in the end he didn't fire the shot, but put down the pistol and shouted: "People like you can never be reused, Erwuzai!" ”

"We are the same, Yang Ran, there is no difference between you and me. We are all marionettes in the hands of others, do you think you are righteous? Whether it is Head Li, Sha Lao or Deputy Director Xia, none of them is just, this is a struggle for power, but we must stand on the side that is beneficial to ourselves! ”

"But I'm not going to betray my friends like you."

"I didn't betray, I didn't see them as friends from the beginning, except for you...... Over the years, I have had many opportunities to find out where you are hiding, but I have not taken the initiative to report you......"

In my opinion, the relationship between these two people in the past is probably more like a relationship of lovers than just friends or colleagues.

"If you really think of me as a friend, then you should be on my side. You have been under Deputy Director Xia for so many years, is there a way to blend in with the White Mansion? Yang Ran changed the topic, the gray squirrel shook his head slightly, and Yang Ran said with some disappointment: "It seems that he really doesn't trust you, you think about it, if you don't want to go to the irreparable end with me, then choose to stand on my side." ”

After speaking, Yang Ran turned his head to look at me, and was about to speak, when the gray squirrel suddenly shouted: "I won't go to your side, because, I have to stand on the stronger side to protect myself." ”

"What?" Yang Ran heard the words in his mouth, turned around and asked, only to see the gray squirrel take out a paper talisman from his arms, and then throw it into the air, the paper talisman shattered in the air and released a red strong light, which is equivalent to a signal flare!

"What are you doing!" Yang Ran asked loudly.

"They had already guessed that you were coming for me, so they had a lot of people nearby, and they would surround me as soon as I gave the signal. Yang Ran, you are a smart woman, stand on my side, and fly with me under Deputy Director Xia, this time he promised me that as long as I catch Ba Xiaoshan, he will reuse me! ”

"It's really a mouse, a rat that people use to catch big fish." I sneered, and at the same time felt a lot of people coming from the alley in all directions, and within a few minutes a dozen people appeared in my eyes, and it looked like more people would gather here. Yang Ran's face was solemn, her eyes were full of disappointment, she must have had some hopes for the man in front of her, but these hopes had been blown up at this time.

"I'll kill you!" Yang Ran raised his pistol and shouted, but heard me say coldly: "Don't waste the bullet, keep this bullet for a while." ”

Dozens of people blocked all the passages we could walk, and one of them, a man in a black suit, came out of the crowd, looked at me and said, "Mr. Ba, our deputy director wants to see you." ”

I smiled and said, "It's still the same old thing, how many times do you want me to say this?" I want to see him and let him come on his own, and if I want to see him, I'll go to him. ”

"We have already conveyed this to the Deputy Director, and therefore, the Deputy Director has decided to come and see you in person." As soon as the other party's voice fell, the black-clothed bodyguard on the opposite side got out of the way, and the deputy director of the 507 Institute Xia appeared in front of me, and he actually appeared to meet me in person!

Dressed in a black tunic suit, he looked a little thinner than I remembered, with a steady and steady-footed footing. After walking in front of me, he nodded to me slightly, and said: "The little people of the year have now become masters of the storm, Ba Xiaoshan, your change can be said to be the miracle of the rivers and lakes today." ”

I squinted my eyes, trying to figure out the intention of Deputy Director Xia to appear in person. He replied casually: "I didn't expect you to really come to see me." ”

"You are a distinguished guest, I should greet you personally, since I am here, then you might as well come to my car and talk." He pointed to the black sedan outside the alley.

I hesitated, nodded, and walked over with my feet up.
