Sinmonger Chapter 8: Unknown aid

March 12, 2101, two days after the Winnipeg bank robbery.

7 p.m. Chicago.

On an unremarkable side street, there is a bookstore.

An Asian man is walking down the street. He has a ponytail and a pair of small round sunglasses. He walks slightly stooped and sneaky.

After Zuo Dao got off the plane, he found a cheap hotel to stay, and then he came to the bookstore agreed on on the phone.

When I got to the door, four middle-aged men walked out of the store, one of them in a leather jacket was carrying something in his arms, which seemed to be wrapped in oilcloth.

"What are you looking at?" the other party shouted fiercely.

Zuo Dao shrank his neck: "I'm sorry... a few please..." He stepped aside.

I don't know where this group of people got so much anger, but they didn't embarrass them, they just cast a disdainful look and then left.

Zuo Dao took a deep breath and pushed the door into the store.

The bookstore is cluttered, with books piled on the ground, books piled on the table, and bookshelves full. No matter where you are, you can't see the slightest bit of order and regularity. The top view of this bookstore is in the shape of a cross. The owner sits behind a desk in the middle. The door behind him is actually his living room, which is usually hidden. There is a very high-end coffee machine next to the desk. This thing is probably the most valuable thing in the whole store.

"Um... Mr. Tianyi?" Zuo Dao looked at the boss and asked tentatively.

Tian Yi just opened a book and took half a sip of coffee. After hearing Zuo Dao's voice, he sighed deeply, put down the book and cup in his hand, and made a gesture of invitation: "Sit."

Zuo Dao trudged from the stack of books with difficulty. Since there was no chair, he could only sit on a stack of books.

Tianyi opened the drawer at hand, looked up at the left and said, "Want pizza?"

"No, thank you."

Tian Yi looked down at the drawer again: "Where's the game?"

"Um...what do you mean?"

"Rodents, rich in protein, taste like chicken." Tianyi's tone was like a salesman: "I can give you an alcohol lamp or heat it in the microwave for you."

Although there was nothing to tell from the other party's expression, Zuo Dao seemed to smell some kind of corruption, which made him have a very bad premonition, so he waved his hand and refused.

Tian whispered, "Cut..." and closed the drawer casually.

Zuo Dao looked back at the window of the bookstore, and then looked at Tiandao with a questioning look: "Those who just went out..."

Tian Yi continued: "They, the Tobacco Club."

"Oh... so that's what it is, I was shocked. I heard that this place in Chicago is not very peaceful recently. The two famous Lucches family and the Genovese family are fighting each other, and the police are taking advantage of the fisherman. , those few people just now, I thought they were the mafia."

Tian Yio: "They are the Mafia."

This sentence almost choked Zuo Dao to death.

Tian Yi smiled and said: "But this has nothing to do with you, you don't have to show this expression, I'm looking for you to do something else. It's a waste to use your talent to deal with the mere mafia."

Zuo Dao quickly replied: "Big brother, remember you said that as long as I help you hand over the video tape to Xue Xiao, you will never contact me again?"

"What I said was 'if I don't have a place to use you in the future, we'll never have contact again', obviously, now I have a place to use you." Tianyi: " But don't worry, I won't keep blackmailing you with things like exposing your whereabouts. I know that even if the police really surround you, you can always run away, and the real masters of the empire will not go to great lengths. To catch criminals like you, after all, you are just a middleman, not a violent criminal.”

Zuo Dao was relieved to hear this, but Tian Yi immediately said: "I will hire you to do some things at the fee of your middleman for the time being. If you refuse, I will think of something new and more effective. way to threaten you."

"Big brother! It's the so-called good brothers show loyalty! Can I say 'no' to your request, big brother?! Am I like that kind of person?! Look, as long as you give me a call, I won't be here. Has Hainan Island rushed over at full speed!" Zuo Dao began to talk incessantly, his eyes were shining under the sunglasses, his eyebrows were dancing, his acting skills could not be described as superb, and his performance could not be described as uninspired.

Tian threw a newspaper on the table in front of Zuo Dao: "You are very smart, Venice is indeed not a place to stay for a long time, it is the right choice for you to run away after helping the blood owl, otherwise he will find him again sooner or later. You, Idea finds me and advisors through you."

Zuo Dao took the newspaper, and before he read the content on it, he heard the very unpleasant name: "Well... why does he think I can find a consultant... Wait, I can understand if the blood owl wants to find you. , but what does he do with a consultant?"

Tian Yiyi: "Hmph... It should be said that I used some methods to make the blood owl have the illusion that my advisor and I are accomplices. That's all I can tell you. You are very talented, Zuo Dao, Maybe you can use your network of contacts and intelligence to find a consultant. As for me, you have already tried it.”

Zuo Dao was surprised in his heart. He secretly investigated Tianyi's affairs, and he did a good job, but he also found out. Could this guy really be omniscient and omnipotent?

"Don't be in a daze, read the newspaper, a piece of news in North America." Tian Yidao.

Zuo Dao looked at it for a while, and suddenly his expression changed greatly: "This person..."

"Oh, it seems I remember it." Tian Dao: "Seven years ago, a top assassin in Qian Ming left office, and his merits have allowed him to receive a sum of money from the organization to live a normal life. .But people are not cats and dogs, they are pets when they are picked up from the trash can and put in the house. People, the basis for living in the 'present', is the 'past', and the assassin needs a legal identity~IndoMTL. com~ and you were the manager at that time.”

Zuo Dao continued: "Tom Stoll's legal status is very expensive. I have traveled a lot and spent a lot of thought to get this deal done. Why? Is he exposed like this? He is also your eldest brother. people?"

Tian Yi replied: "No, we have never met. That's not the point, the point is his identity, I'm afraid it won't last long, and his enemies will soon come to the door. According to my inference, he will definitely follow. Will do 'that'... It is because you have some friendship with him that you are called." He picked up a book he was reading just now: "This book is called 'Gilson II', You help me take it to Winnipeg and give it to the snake to help him. Of course, I know you will peek, just watch it, and it will help you later."

Zuo Dao took the book with a puzzled look on his face.

Tianyi added: "By the way, the consultant is in Chicago now, and I should be in touch with him within two weeks. No accident, we will leave Chicago together. After you go to Maple Leaf County to complete the task, you don't have to Come back to me, you can go anywhere, just don't come back to Chicago, or you may encounter a blood owl or 'that kid' who came here to look for an advisor. Huh... It's not easy to mess with, once you meet, either They are made into buns and fed to dogs, or they are sent to Tidal Prison, or in short, they are caught on the table of Hades and sent to death.”

Zuo Dao was stunned when he heard it. At this time, he deeply realized that when a person broke the news one by one about the things that have not happened in the future, it obviously has high requirements on the IQ of the audience.

As soon as Tian finished speaking, he picked up the coffee again, and seemingly casually took out another book from the bookshelf behind him, yawning and looking through it, as if the left road in front of him had become air, hurry up and get out OK, save your eyes.
