Chapter 45 Make a friend
Gao Yi didn't know what Sean's specific plans were, because Sean didn't explain them in detail on the phone, so he had no way of knowing.

"Don't they have any prior agreement on how and where to start the fight? Can they just drag Suleimant's opponent over and be done with it?"

Since it concerns Gao Yi's safety, it is reasonable for him to ask this question, but Sean said calmly: "Your concern is reasonable, but the reality is that there is no way to make an agreement. I was able to contact Suleimant's competitors because I had made sufficient preparations before I came. I investigated all of Suleimant's potential enemies, and they were enemies that could pose a threat to him. But it was just an investigation without any prior agreement. This means that there is a lack of sufficient mutual trust, and mutual trust is very important."

"Aren't you afraid that Suleimant's opponents will kill us all?"

"Of course I was afraid, so I found the sand scorpion."

Sean waved his hand and said, "The Sand Scorpion Mercenary Group is the only mercenary group I know of that operates on the US-Mexico border all year round. They are very powerful and have about 20 members. Moreover, this mercenary group is relatively law-abiding. But I don't know them well enough to know if they can still abide by the rules when faced with a large sum of money. So, I chose safety first."

Sean is definitely a veteran, and Gao Yi is undoubtedly a newcomer, so there are things that Sean thinks do not need to be explained, but Gao Yi actually still doesn't quite understand.

"Wait, what do you mean by not knowing enough, so choose safety first?"

Sean nodded and said, "That's a good question. I don't know enough about them. I have never worked with them, and based on the reputation spread by the outside world, I can't be sure whether Sand Scorpion values ​​money or reputation the most. So my choice is very simple. We don't want the 10 million US dollars. We will give it all to Sand Scorpion."

Gao Yi whispered, "Ten million, or even nine million would be fine, right?"

It's always good to keep an extra million, so Gao Yi doesn't understand why he gave all the money to Shaxie.

Sean sighed and said, "If you were a member of Sand Scorpion, you could kill two people and get an extra million, because the money is right in front of you. The most important thing is that this task did not go through the dark web, and we are not even the employer, because we cannot provide the complete process required for a task. So for Sand Scorpion, there is no restriction except industry reputation and ethics. If it were you, would you kill two people and get an extra million?"

"will not."

"Can you guarantee that the Sand Scorpion won't either?"

"Not guaranteed."

Sean nodded, and then he said solemnly: "No matter how much I explain to you now, you won't be able to understand it very well. Wait a minute, when you know how the whole thing happened, you will understand why I made this choice."

"Okay, let's wait and see."

Sean seemed very willing to play the role of a teacher at this time. He continued: "All the decisions I made were to ensure your safe evacuation?"

The words sounded so good that Gao Yi didn't dare to believe them, so he just said lightly: "Yeah."

"The reason why I want old bills is that the drug dealers must have a lot of cash, but 10 million US dollars is a very large number. Suleimant can take out 10 million US dollars at any time, but it is likely to be new bills. So I want old bills to delay time so that the Sand Scorpion can arrive in time."

After explaining why he wanted old banknotes, Sean smiled and said, "The more and more detailed your requests are, the more it shows that you really intend to let your opponent go. If you just agree casually, Suleimant will not believe you. These are just small tips, but they are very important. They are basically experiences gained at the cost of life."

Gao Yi was helpless. He whispered, "You mean I can't get these experiences if I don't join you. If I act alone, I will die easily, right?"

Sean said openly, "Yes."

No matter what, they are still in the same boat, so Gao Yi thought about it and finally said nothing.

I can't just say now that I don't like the garden and I want to join another killer organization.

Gao Yi is not stupid, and his emotional intelligence is not that low. He should just accept the sugar coating and fire back. Anyway, it’s enough as long as he knows it in his heart.

"He looks like he's almost awake."

Gao Yi said just one sentence and Sean immediately shut up.

"Can you tell me how long it will take him to wake up?"

"No, I rarely knock people out. To be exact, this is the first time. I can't control the strength well and dare not hit him too hard, so he won't be unconscious for too long."

Sean exhaled and said, "Okay, now I will just say the most important thing. You are a killer, not a mercenary. Be careful to protect yourself later."

The car continued to drive around on the road. Gao Yi now realized that leaving Suleimant behind was the best decision he had made today, because looking at the vehicles that appeared and disappeared from time to time behind them, if they didn't have the hostages in their hands, they would have definitely died many times.

“I… this is…”

Suleimant really woke up. He had been unconscious for about two hours, which was not too short, but not enough time for the Sand Scorpion to arrive.

So far, Sean hasn't received any call from the Sand Scorpion that it has arrived.

"You're fine, you won't die." Sean deliberately comforted Suleimant, and then he said lightly: "We will be able to release you soon, don't worry."

Suleimant's eyes moved, he seemed to be thinking, and then he looked at his mobile phone.

Suleimant's cell phone was in Gao Yi's hand.

Gao Yi handed over the phone and said, "Call and ask if the money is ready." Suleimant took the phone, checked the time, and after confirming how long he had been unconscious, he whispered, "The money must be ready, but why don't you go get it now..."

"Do not ask."

Gao Yi didn't move, he just said something lightly, but Suleimant trembled all over and quickly closed his mouth.

Sean said confidently, "Because we need to wait for someone to pick us up. Don't worry, we are professional killers with strong professional ethics. We will definitely not kill you if we say we won't. Besides, this mission only pays $200,000. If it were you, what would you choose between $200,000 and $10 million?"

Suleimant was shocked and said, "What? Only 200,000? How is that possible!"

Sean said without hesitation: "Show him the task."

Sean thought Suleimant was dead, and Suleimant seemed to realize this. He was shocked at first, and then said, "I won't look! I won't look!"

Gao Yi took out his phone, called up the task, covered his name with his fingers, and then held the phone in front of Suleimant and said, "Take a good look, is it two hundred thousand?"

Suleimant couldn't help but take a look. He saw his own photo, the dark web page, and saw that it was indeed a task that he had accepted, and the task amount was exactly 200,000.

Suleimant was furious and said, “That bastard only offered 200,000 to buy my life! This is a humiliation to me...you...you..."

He was angry at first, but then he became extremely confused. Suleimant looked at Gao Yi and asked in confusion, "Just for two hundred thousand, you killed so many of my bodyguards and arrested me?"

Gao Yi looked at Suleimant and frowned, "What else?"

"Only two hundred thousand?"

"If I don't kill you, will you give me two hundred thousand?"

"Hs...hs..."

Suleimant took two deep breaths and suddenly said, "I'll add another 10 million, giving you 20 million. Can you tell me the identity of your employer?"

Gao Yi's mood was very complicated, extremely complicated, and then he said with a sullen face: "No, we are professional killers, we have... professional ethics!"

This was a bit hollow, but Sean said, "I can't tell you about that, and I can't tell you about the 100 million. Our mission failed, and we won't lose anything if we get 10 million in exchange, but I can't betray my employer."

Gao Yi followed up with, “Well, that’s impossible.”

Suleimant suddenly asked, "You don't know either, do you?"

Xiao En was silent. Gao Yi said in surprise, "How can you...how can you talk nonsense?"

Suleimant sighed and said, "It's normal that you don't know the identity of the employer when you get the order from the dark web, but you don't know my identity either, right?"

Sean didn't say anything. Gao Yi hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything either.

"Newbie, huh?"

Suleimant asked confidently, then he looked at Gao Yi and said, "Otherwise you wouldn't be unaware of my strength, and you wouldn't have taken on the task of killing me in Mexicali just for a mere $200,000."

Gao Yi swallowed and looked at Sean involuntarily.

Suleimant was sure, and he said confidently: "Okay, you can give up this mission. I don't care whether you really intended to let me go before or not, but it doesn't matter now, because your employer will definitely die, and he can't hire you to kill me again. The most important thing is that he can't pay. Even if he prepays the commission to the dark web, he will never add a bounty."

Gao Yi looked at Sean again, and Sean shook his head slightly, so Gao Yi said nothing.

Suleimante saw the two's little tricks and said confidently, "Take the 10 million and leave. I will never blame you and will never hunt you down. Since you are professional killers, there is no need for me to retaliate against you. I can even pay you to kill my employer. I know who my employer is, Francesca. Only he would buy my life for a mere 200,000 because he can't afford more money."

Gao Yi couldn't help but ask, "Who is Francesca?"

"He used to be the biggest drug lord in this city, but not anymore because I defeated him."

Now Suleimant was not so scared anymore. He sat up straighter, waved his phone and said, "Let me make a call, okay? I'll give you another two million dollars."

Pointing at Gao Yi, Suleimant said in a tone that had regained some dignity: "Based on your skills, you deserve the two million. Let's be friends."

Gao Yi licked his lips and said, "Uh, well, then...thank you?"

Sean nodded, and his cell phone rang, so he picked it up and took a look, then said, "Okay."
