"Don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure about."
Shi Xin stopped in the shade of a tree, holding the tree trunk with one hand and touching the mobile phone in his pocket with the other.
After she took it out, she suddenly turned her head and asked, "Tang Lian, have you ever gambled?"
"bet?"
Tang Lian walked forward and stood under the same shade of a tree as her. Fragments of sunlight shone on their shoulders, cicadas chirped wildly, and the shadows of leaves and figures swayed.
"What kind of bet? Playing cards during the Chinese New Year? The collateral branches can play, but I don't do that kind of thing." She was still thinking about the solution and replied casually, "When I was still rated as a genius, I was not allowed to play cards in the clan. When I become an imbecile, no one will fight with me, thinking that by isolating me, I can improve the family status."
Shi Xin smiled: "Betting on cards is too boring, isn't it? There is no future... At least it has to be a gamble that can determine your life."
She opened WeChat, clicked into someone's chat box, and entered a few lines of text.
Tang Lian was looking down at the side, confused.
"I have always been very lucky. From the time I chose my name, to becoming the master of faceless clothes, constantly collecting treasures, to meeting Xu Fanjia, Zhang Su, you..."
Shi Xin put away his cell phone, and looked at Tang Lian while leaning on the tree trunk, smiling softly. The newly replaced Ming Eyes were not yet fully docile, and were trembling slightly, with a little golden light flowing through them.
"Is this destiny? I prefer a certain belief to support me. I look for the gorgeous nodes that will inevitably appear in an unchanging life. I abandon my stable and ordinary identity, join the struggle for power, and live a wandering life. He ended up dead on the street."
Tang Lian didn't understand: "What do you want to say?"
"Bet." Shi Xin lowered his head to look at the ants in the mud, "Keep believing in the idea of winning the bet, and then do things, and you will definitely win the bet."
She stepped harshly into the mud and crushed the ant with her toes.
"The people in this world who need to abandon their friendship the most are gamblers...but I am different. I am a trader disguised as a gambler."
She removed her shoes, and the ant struggled and came to life again.
"I am betting, turning from a gambler to a trader, and I firmly believe that I will win."
"Confused?" She patted Tang Lian on the shoulder and smiled kindly, "I'm just teasing you. Go back and rest. We have to go to Xiaolangdi to watch the fireworks tomorrow."
Tang Lian pursed her lips. She felt that she couldn't see through Shi Xin.
Then again, she seemed to have never seen through it, and had never had such an idea before.
Why are you always thinking about seeing through people when you have nothing to do? Is it edible or something? Just make sure that the core won't harm you and you'll be done!
She figured it out and regained her iceberg face.
At 9 noon the next day.
There are still 13:00:00 left before the countdown ends.
When the investors of "Xichao Resort" received the resort project, the backbone of the investment department who promoted it said that building the resort here, surrounded by mountains and rivers, at a low price would perfectly meet the needs of city people for leisurely outings in summer. .
The investors made an on-site inspection and agreed upon the sum total.
Halfway through the project, it was suddenly reported that key members of the investment department had resigned and flown abroad. Investors were wondering, why would a good company leave?
He also heard from his secretary that he just found out that the investor’s on-the-spot inspection was fake. In fact, the facilities near the Xiaolangdi Reservoir are extremely incomplete. The nearby villages are usually deserted and they only stay when the investor is there. If you want to make the resort To make a profit, you have to spend money to build the surrounding area.
How much money does this cost?
The investors came from abroad to try out the domestic investment market and invest in many projects at the same time. There was no need to invest too much in a resort where the final profit could not be determined, so they decided to stop losses in time and refused to pay the balance.
Although a lot of money has been spent in the early stage, construction has already begun, and this is destined to be an unfinished project.
The investors were obviously deceived. The key members of the investment department flew away early. It would be surprising if they were not harmed.
Everything happens for a reason, and it's all about money.
How to make money from a bad project?
The most complete thing in the resort is the Cross Church, because the investors are Christians.
"boom--"
The cross was pushed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust. Devout believers enshrined the custom-made clay sculpture of Yaoshang Bodhisattva at the front. Nearly 9,000 believers spontaneously knelt down to pray. The empty church was filled with kneelers, and there were also late believers arriving outside. Public.
A hand with distinct finger bones and a pathologically pale hand touched the wall. A large piece of the wall fell off with a slight touch. With a twist in his hand, the shoddy work was shattered into powder.
He scanned the congregation with light and unfocused eyes, and finally landed on the clay sculpture in the front.
Medicine Bodhisattva has one leg crossed and the other bent. It does not have three heads or six arms, and there is no purification bottle in its hand. It just looks at the believers with a compassionate and loving face, leaning forward with its back, as if it has something to say to the believers.
There were people kneeling on the ground who wanted to reach out to touch it or get closer to it, but they were all stopped outside the small isolation zone.
Some of these hands have abscesses, and some have red rust. People who have been corroded by evil spirits for too long have no intact parts.
They are dying, their internal organs are about to rot, and the only one who can save them is God!
The thin man outside the door hurriedly came in, impatiently kicked away the men and women on the ground who were blocking the way, walked to the side of the church and lowered his voice: "Master, the Holy Son cannot be contacted."
Anstu calmly smashed a piece of wall, and then said in a deep voice: "What are you afraid of? If you don't come, he will die."
"when will you arrive?"
The WeChat interface was a message from Gongsun Fu. Shi Xin was arranging his clothes in front of the mirror and replied casually: "The action will be there as soon as it starts, and it will end how it starts. Someone will communicate with you."
Eighteen military trucks, three helicopters parked on the hillside, and a group of members of the armed forces hidden on the side of the mountain have gathered at Xiaolangdi Reservoir. The number is about a battalion level.
Five hundred people versus nine thousand, with tranquilizer bombs loaded, I have the advantage.
Behind Gongsun Fu is the analysis team responsible for retrieval. This operation is mainly about containment and cooperation. The task of the field team is not to rush in, but to protect the analysis team from interference.
"How is it?" She turned around and asked, "Is there any fluctuation?"
The analysis team wears white coats like the search section. The special materials can provide better protection and are more solid than body armor.
The original master of the analysis team who was using the machine to scan shook his head: "There is no obvious fluctuation, and it has not even reached the threshold of Zhimei."
Gongsun Fu's eyes narrowed: "It seems that we have to attack first to lure them out."
"Click."
Shi Xin closed the door, set off as usual, got on the bus, and entered the school.
She didn't have many clothes, so she could clearly remember the tennis club's New Year's Eve outfit, a white dress with dark embroidery, which she bought online for only thirty yuan, and the quality was surprisingly good.
When she came to the school gymnasium, she suddenly felt emotional, as if everything happened here.
So, does everything have to end here?
Opening the door, Huang Lin was waiting for her.
