"You want to go to Black Owl with me?"
Hoshino Kannon's large eyes shone with a puzzled look.
Gu Chenan nodded and said, "Yes."
"But... since you stopped Lin Yu from executing the mission to kill Xiao Jian, you're probably a potential target of the organization now, right? Wouldn't going to Black Owl be like walking into a trap?" Hoshino Kannon couldn't quite understand.
Gu Chenan smiled lightly and said, "This... I'll just tell Black Owl that it was a misunderstanding between Lin Yu and me."
"But... will the organization believe it? Besides, even if I bring you back, they probably won't accept you, right?" Hoshino Kannon still seemed unconvinced.
Gu Chenan smiled, perfectly at ease, "Didn't you kidnap Liu Mingrui before, but Lin Yu stopped you and even recommended her to join Black Owl? Black Owl didn't have any suspicions about him, did they?"
"This..."
Recalling this embarrassing history, Hoshino Kannon felt regretful.
If she had known Lin Yu was that kind of person, how could she have possibly recommended him to join Black Owl?
Wouldn't it have been better to just kill him directly?
If she had killed Lin Yu back then, Gu Chenan wouldn't have to go through so much trouble now.
After a moment, Hoshino Kannon sighed.
"Have you really thought this through? Don't think just because I look good and seem kind-hearted that everyone in Black Owl is like that. Let me tell you, they're all crazy!" Then, feeling that her description wasn't accurate, she added, "Crazier than me!"
[Looks good and kind-hearted...]
The corner of Gu Chenan's mouth twitched.
[You do indeed look good, but I haven't really felt any kindness from you...]
"It's fine, I'm confident," Gu Chenan said with assurance.
After all, he had seen the original plot.
He had a relatively deep understanding of all the members of The Twelve Owls.
Especially Fang Yuanyuan, the leader of The Twelve Owls, that internet-addicted girl who was terrible at games but always thought others were worse than her.
In the original plot, Fang Yuanyuan wasn't one of the main female characters, not even a supporting character.
But her contrast was quite memorable.
Just imagine, the leader of an assassin organization was a young girl, and a twin-tailed girl at that. How unexpected was that?
Moreover, knowing the original plot, Gu Chenan understood Fang Yuanyuan's weakness.
With Hoshino Kannon and Fang Yuanyuan, Gu Chenan was confident that he could replace Lin Yu and become one of The Twelve Owls, and even bring the entire Black Owl under his command!
"Then should I call the organization now?" Hoshino Kannon asked tentatively.
"Go ahead, call your boss," Gu Chenan raised his eyebrows.
"Huh?" Hoshino Kannon was surprised, "You know our boss?"
Gu Chenan shook his head, "Not really, I've just heard of her."
"Okay." Hoshino Kannon did as he said.
After a few rings, the call finally went through.
"Damn it, this player just beat me in one round! F***!" Fang Yuanyuan's voice came through the phone.
Hoshino Kannon smiled awkwardly, "Hey boss, can I bring someone back with me this time?"
"How skilled are they? If they're not that skilled, don't bother. Just send them to be a small team leader or something," Fang Yuanyuan said as she stared at the screen in front of her, her keyboard clacking rapidly.
"They're skilled, about as skilled as me!" Hoshino Kannon nodded.
"Alright then, bring them," Fang Yuanyuan said, then asked, "Are you coming back with Lin Yu this time?"
Hoshino Kannon immediately shook her head, "No, not with him."
"Oh okay, got it. I won't say anything else, someone's trying to sneak into our base."
Beep beep beep~
The call ended.
Hoshino Kannon smiled awkwardly and explained, "Don't let her lazy demeanor fool you, she's really powerful."
Gu Chenan was, of course, aware of Fang Yuanyuan's abilities.
She could be considered the pinnacle of strength in the entire novel, though Lin Yu became even stronger than her later on.
"I know, the contrast, I get it," Gu Chenan nodded and looked at Hoshino Kannon, "When are we leaving?"
Hoshino Kannon raised her eyebrows, "Shouldn't I be asking you that?"
"Aren't you going to say goodbye to Qianmo, Mingrui, Yu Tian and the others?"
"Uh..."
Gu Chenan paused, "Never mind, if Lin Yu goes to Black Owl, he'll probably become one of The Twelve Owls immediately. We need to leave quickly to catch up with him."
"Catch up?" Hoshino Kannon was surprised, "Lin Yu has probably already left, right? Even if we leave now, we might not be able to catch up with him."
"Are you sure?" Gu Chenan grinned.
...
Fifteen minutes later.
At the airport runway.
Hoshino Kannon's jaw dropped as a Boeing plane taxied onto the runway.
"This... what is this? Which flight is this?" she asked in disbelief.
"Flight?" Gu Chenan patted Hoshino Kannon's plump behind, "Private jet."
At that moment, Hoshino Kannon finally understood why Gu Chenan said they might be able to catch up with Lin Yu even if they left later.
Because... money can make a ghost push a millstone...
...
Two hours later.
Gu Chenan and Hoshino Kannon arrived in Yanjing.
Yanjing was the capital of China, and although it lacked the southern charm of Suhang and Donghai, its status far surpassed those cities.
Although the Gu family had no business in Yanjing, Gu Chenan's extravagantly wealthy demeanor was undeniable wherever he went.
There were only two Lamborghini dealerships in Yanjing, and Gu Chenan took a taxi to the closest one.
"Hello sir, are you here for an inquiry?" The salesperson greeted them with a professional smile, assuming that the two young people weren't there to buy a car.
But even so, the salesperson was still very polite.
Gu Chenan glanced around and casually pointed, "That one, can I take it now?"
The salesperson was stunned.
"You mean take delivery now, sir?"
"Yes, take delivery now," Gu Chenan nodded.
Holy sh*t...
The salesperson was taken aback and quickly poured tea and water.
...
Ten minutes later, a grey and gold Lamborghini drove out of the dealership.
From start to finish, there was no scene of the salesperson looking down on Gu Chenan before he ultimately took delivery of the car in a display of wealth.
This made Gu Chenan feel rather pleased.
Being a villain was truly great. If it had been Lin Yu today, there would have undoubtedly been that cliched scene.
The protagonist? Hmph, not even a dog!
At the same time.
At the Yanjing high-speed rail station.
Carrying his luggage, Lin Yu stood at the exit with an arrogant expression, surveying the scenery of Yanjing.
He silently vowed in his heart: The insults and disrespect I suffered in Donghai and Suhang, I will never experience again in Yanjing!
From now on, no one can speak loudly to me, no one!
Just then, a high-speed rail station staff member pointed at Lin Yu and shouted loudly.
"Hey kid over there, don't block the way! Move aside!"
"Okay, okay, sorry about that."
...
