"So you think that Chris is the one who destroyed our engine?"
Ryan sat on the sofa and after listening to Yang Jie's analysis, he rubbed his chin and asked.
Yang Jie nodded and admitted.
“That cladding welding technique is too special and too coincidental.
Moreover, the time when Chris disappeared almost coincided with the starting point of our mission to capture Fermat. "
Except for Elena who was recuperating upstairs, the rest of the Akainu team sat around the coffee table, each thinking.
"So the real black hand is Thor Industries?"
Rock asked, raising his head.
Yang Jie was silent for a moment, shook his head and expressed his opinion:
"I am not sure."
Ryan just had some idea, but when he heard what Yang Jie said, he felt a little unsure.
Yang Jie was always the first to find out about the mastermind behind the scenes, and it was Yang Jie who first raised the issue about Yehuda. Yang Jie's performance these days also made Ryan subconsciously trust his judgment.
He looked at Yang Jie, frowned slightly and asked:
"Why?"
"The logic here doesn't make sense."
Yang Jie explained:
"If the mastermind behind this is really Thor Industries, then there is no way Piero doesn't know me - after all, these people have tricked us twice and know our actions well.
Even if he is not taken seriously by people in the family, I think people from Raytheon Industries must have told him at some point that he should not be so stupid as to send the information to us. "
"Oh, so you suspected this."
After hearing Yang Jie's thoughts, Ryan's frown relaxed and he smiled and waved his hands.
"You just came to Old Port, so you may not know much about it. Piero is indeed a fool."
Ryan continued:
“If it was his brother Arnol who did this, your concerns would be justified.
But Piero. "
Ryan even laughed when he said this.
"If it was him, I wouldn't have any doubt - this is indeed what Del Piero can do."
Seeing that Yang Jie was confused, Luo Ke smiled and explained:
“That damn fat guy has a nickname in Old Port, he’s called ‘The Pig’.
On the one hand, he is too fat, and on the other hand, he is too useless, so everyone calls him that behind his back. "
Hearing this, Yang Jie was a little confused:
"Rock, I remember you told me that he has not been liked by his father since he was a child. Why?"
Rock shrugged.
"Evans, the current chairman of Thor Industries, came in by marriage, and Piero is his child with the daughter of the previous chairman.
Piero's mother died not long after giving birth to Piero. Evans found another woman outside and gave birth to his younger brother Arnall. "
Having said this, Rock clicked his tongue and continued:
"Pierro has not been good-looking since he was a child and lost his mother when he was young, so he is not very popular with Evans."
Ivan nodded and then added:
“It is said that Evans has long wanted to deprive Piero of his inheritance rights and hand over Thor Industries to Arnall.
But the elders of Thor Industries, those who were loyal to Piero's mother, disagreed, so part of the shares of Thor Industries had always been in Piero's name.
However, Evans has been cleaning up those people, and everyone thinks that Thor Industries will still be inherited by Anor in the future.
This is why he is called 'meat' pig.
Everyone believed that those shares were only temporarily in Piero's name, and that once Evans had cleaned up the house, he would completely transfer those shares to Arnault. "
Yang Jie nodded.
"Actually, this has something to do with Piero's own inability."
Ryan said:
"If he had some energy for himself, Evans might be able to change his mind? But he fails in everything he does. He can do nothing but eat, drink and have fun."
"Okay, let's stop talking about the dead pig."
Roque was still a little worried about what happened at noon and was unwilling to mention Piero too much.
He looked at Ryan and asked:
"Boss, what should we do now? Go directly to the carmaker?"
"No."
Ryan also stopped joking, shook his head and replied:
"Don't alert the enemy first, the most important thing we need to do now is to confirm whether there is really a problem with Yehuda.
Only when the information around Peco is no longer leaked can we avoid being led by the hands behind the scenes. "
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Okay, everyone can go about their own business. Regarding Yehuda, I will discuss a plan with Peco."
Everyone nodded and stood up to leave.
Little Christine, who woke up from her nap, rubbed her eyes and walked out of Elena's room.
Seeing Yang Jie coming back, the little girl screamed excitedly and then jumped into Yang Jie's arms.
Maybe Yang Jie was the first person to talk to her, so little Christine was very close to this kind big brother. After getting to know him these days, she would pester him whenever she had nothing to do.
Yang Jie picked up the little girl, patted her blond hair, and asked with a smile:
"Did you disturb Sister Elena this morning?"
"No! Kristen is very good!"
Kristine shouted back, her little head arched in Yang Jie's arms, and then she giggled.
"Yeah?"
Yang Jie asked, and then looked at Elena who was standing at the door of the room with a calm expression.
"It's quite noisy if you live with children, right?"
Elena shook her head.
"fine."
There are only five bedrooms on the second floor of the Akainu Team. There are no extra rooms, so Kristen and Elena can only live together.
"Brother, I want to see Xiao Hei!"
Blackie is a bird that builds a nest in the yard of the Akainu team. This little guy goes to the yard to see it every day when he has nothing to do. He is so scared that the black bird hovers outside the yard every day and does not dare to return to the nest.
"Let's go, brother will take you there."
Yang Jie carried Kristen into the garage.
On the other side, Ivan took Elena out for a walk - Elena needs proper exercise.
The four of them went about their own business. The idler Rock shrugged and went back to his room to get some money and prepare to have some fun.
When everyone finally left, Ryan sat on the sofa. After thinking for a moment, he took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Hey, Ryan, what's up?"
A tired male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Peco, are you okay now?"
"not too good."
Peco smiled bitterly and then said:
"I feel that Fermat's case is almost unstoppable. Yesterday, some colleagues were already asking about his situation."
He sighed softly as he spoke, and said in a very low mood:
"To be honest, I can't stand it anymore."
Ryan knew about his friend's situation, and he knew that what Peco needed most now was not comfort, but a little good news.
"We've made some discoveries here."
Hearing what Ryan said, Peco finally cheered up, and then heard Ryan continue:
"We have now basically determined that the person who took away Fermat should be Thor Industries."
"Thor Industries?"
Peco pondered for a moment, stood up from the chair, walked to the window, and asked:
"you sure?"
"basically."
Ryan's voice came from the receiver.
"But before that, we have another thing to tell you."
Peco knew that Ryan would not take the wrong aim. He did not ask questions in a hurry, but listened to Ryan go on to say:
"The masterminds behind our two actions knew all about it, and they almost killed us."
Accusation?
Peco thought for a moment and shook his head to deny the idea. He knew Ryan and knew that he was not such a person.
It's not an accusation, it could still be...
Peco's expression tightened and he immediately understood what Ryan meant.
"You mean, there's something wrong with me?"
"Yeah, I think there's something wrong with Yehuda."
Ryan's inference silenced Peko.
"I know this speculation is difficult to accept, and to be honest, I don't want to think so."
On the other end of the phone, Ryan's voice continued:
"But Peco, everything that happened was such a coincidence."
Seeing that Peco didn't reply, Ryan continued to persuade:
"Peco, don't forget, this is a critical moment in your campaign."
"Okay Ryan, I know, I understand."
Peco took a deep breath and let it out slowly, raised his head, and his eyes became firm.
"What do you need me to do? Interrogate Yehuda?"
"No, Peco.
We have no evidence. Even if you arrest Yehuda now, how sure are you that you can make him tell the truth?
If he refuses to admit it, will you choose to believe him? "
Peco didn't refute, he knew that Ryan was telling the truth.
"I have an idea.
Do you have the ability to block Delio's communication now? "
"It's not difficult, but Ryan, what are you going to do?"
"Listen Peco, let's do this..."
