Chapter 247 Taking the Road

Chapter 247 Taking the Road
"You are going to England, is there anything I can help you with?"

He was called to the office alone, and there was no other special expression. He was just very natural and friendly, and showed concern for Gao Yi, who was his cooperation but not his subordinate.

Does this mean that saying nice things about people behind their backs has any effect?
Gao Yi was puzzled, but he was very happy, because there were basically only two outcomes to this kind of situation where someone was called alone to express goodwill.

Either go to bed or go to the road.

The so-called right path means taking the correct path, commonly known as making the road wider.

"Well, actually, there are many things that I need the help of an experienced and wise person."

While Gao Yi was striking the snake with the stick, he also threw out free flattery like water.

Marina pretended to listen carefully and said, "You go ahead."

"First of all, we are being hunted by the CIA, which you know. Then, we are being hunted by the dark web, and the Andek Group is the specific implementer. In this very dangerous and delicate situation, I have to help you go to the UK to break the leg of a British agent..."

This was not a rejection, but a euphemism to express his difficulties. Then, Gao Yi said seriously: "What should I do next? How can I ensure the safety of myself and my brothers? I don't want to live in fear of being hunted down. So, can you teach me what to do?"

Marina was silent.

When Gao Yi thought Marina might not give any good options, Marina suddenly said: "Actually, this matter is very simple and easy to solve, but it depends on whether you can give up some of the things you have obtained."

"Oh, tell me."

"The reason why you are being hunted by the CIA is not your fault, but Prince Shaman's fault."

Marina waved her hand and said, "Do you know how Prince Shaman got to power?"

"Probably know."

"Very good, then did you know that Prince Shahman's methods were very tough, and he did a series of things to decouple from the United States."

Gao Yi thought about it and said, "I know."

"This is the problem. We welcome Prince Salman's choice. If he wants to break away from the control of the United States, he must seek support from other major powers, so that France will benefit. Of course, France is not enough to replace the United States, but we will get satisfactory returns."

I don’t know why we are talking about national affairs again.

Marina spread her hands and said, "But Prince Shaman's choice will inevitably lead to a strong reaction from the Americans. You are being hunted by the CIA, not because of you, but because of Prince Shaman. So as long as you stay away from Prince Shaman, the CIA will naturally not be a problem."

Gao Yi asked in surprise: "So simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple. Just like I noticed you because of your connection with Salman and Abdullah, you got the CIA's special attention only because you are now Prince Salman with very good weapons. But since you no longer work for Prince Salman, the CIA doesn't bother to care about you."

Gao Yi thought for a moment and said, "I have thought of this problem before, but without Prince Shaman's protection, we would be doomed by now."

"But you have to understand one thing. Prince Shaman is a very powerful character, but his subordinates are not. If you work for him, you are like a firefly in the night. You can't hide your butt when it glows."

After that, Marina smiled and said, "So the easiest way is to stay away from Shaman and Abdullah. The CIA won't focus all its energy on you. In addition, as long as you are willing to join my team, your safety will no longer be a problem."

Gao Yi was very surprised.

Marina shrugged and said, "France has the Foreign Legion. You can join the Foreign Legion first, and then get French citizenship. I'll give you the green light. You just need to register your name in the Foreign Legion and let us go through the necessary process. But the time is very short, at most two years, and you will get the status of a formal employee of the French Directorate-General for External Security, French citizenship, full trust, and a free apartment in Paris. Of course, you only have the right to reside there."

Gao Yi opened his mouth, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Is there anything you want?"

Marina was a little confused by Gao Yi's overly radical question. She was stunned for a moment and asked, "What?"

"Do you have anything in particular you want, or a gift, or any unfulfilled wish that can be solved with money?"

Marina was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Are you trying to say that you are rich?"

"I'll give you $10 million for pocket money."

Is it worth spending 10 million to bribe the director of the French Security Agency's counterintelligence department?

If Russia knew the price, it would probably be so excited that it would jump for joy. If Saudi Arabia knew the price, it would probably be willing to add a zero.

Gao Yi simply said calmly: "You don't have to do anything. I'm just in a good mood and I want to treat you well. Do you have a safe account? If not, I can help you get one, and then you will have 10 million. Or do you like a holiday villa in the mountains of Switzerland? Oh, how about this, I'll buy you a big house in Paris."

Gao Yi was very serious and said sincerely: "Or you can just tell me what you want. I am... I am... I don't know how to say it."

After struggling for a moment, Gao Yi finally said, "As long as you can protect me, I am willing to pay, because money means nothing to me."

Marina frowned, she thought for a moment, finally sighed and said, "Okay, I understand what you mean."

What do you mean?
Gao Yi himself doesn’t understand what he means, so how can Marina understand?
Marina looked down a little, then she whispered: "You are too rich, French nationality can't impress you, and the identity of an agent of the External Security Bureau can't impress you, so... I understand, although you are rejecting me, I am still very happy."

Gao Yi was really confused. The thing was, Gao Yi suddenly wanted to try to solve the security problem with money, and then he thought that since he could spend 10 million to buy Lucy, then even if he added one more zero, he could get Marina.

Shaman would be happy to pay the money, and Gao Yi just wanted to try to see if he could win people's hearts for Shaman.

Shaman paid the money and Gao Yi had to do the favor, but if Saudi Arabia needed Marina in the future, Gao Yi could act on their behalf.

That's roughly what he meant. Gao Yi didn't know how to bribe a spy with money, so he wanted to use a more tactful way and more tactful language.

But Gao Yi didn't know how Marina understood it. He intuitively felt that Marina must have misunderstood.

So Gao Yi thought for a while and said, "You may not understand what I mean. I'm not sure what other way is more appropriate. I'm not very good at talking, so I just do it the way I think is appropriate. If I'm wrong, please forgive me."

Marina smiled and said, "You are very sincere."

Is there really a bug?
Marina continued: "You did something wrong because you shouldn't have thrown money at me."

Gao Yi knew that he was acting too hastily. It would be better to let Luca come forward to discuss this matter, and it would be better to give a hint.

"But after so many years, this is the first time a man has tried to smuggle me with money. This is why you are more lovable than French men. At least you don't just use sweet words, but actual actions and sincerity to smuggle me directly."

Gao Yi whispered: "Uh, this..."

"You are a man of action. All your actions are direct and bold, just like me."

Marina smiled, then she said helplessly: "I'll just assume that you are trying to bribe me."

What do you mean by treating it as bribery? This is bribery in itself.

Gao Yi whispered, "I'm sorry."

"I'll give you a suggestion. Stay away from Shaman and the National Intelligence Agency, because the United States will definitely strike back, and I don't want to see you die early. Then, go to the UK to help me finish this, and then find a safe place to hide and see the situation. It doesn't matter whether Shaman is finished or not. At least I will always keep the door open for you."

"So what should I do if I want to renovate the garden?"

It's still a very jumping question.

Marina spread her hands and said, "Do nothing. Now is not the right time. But I know what you want to do. You don't want to serve France. You just want to be your killer, right? No problem. When the conditions are ripe, I can help you. After all, the Garden is an organization originated from France. In France, you can do things very conveniently. But now is really not a good time. It's too sensitive. The dark web, the CIA, and the Andek Group. Before you have enough strength, you will die very quickly if you rashly use the banner of the Garden."

Gao Yi thought for a moment and said, "Why don't I give you some money? I see your salary isn't very high."

Marina shook her head and said, "Don't mention money anymore."

"Okay, tell me when you need money in the future. Another thing is that we often travel back and forth between the United States and Europe, as well as Africa and the Middle East, so the transportation of weapons is a hassle. Um, can I use your channels?"

Marina said without hesitation: "That's it? This is too easy. I can give you weapons directly, but there is a prerequisite. You don't cause trouble in France."

"Of course that's impossible. How could I possibly cause you trouble? How could that be possible!"

Marina smiled and said, "Very good, that's right."

"I brought a gun. This gun is very important to me. Can you keep it for me? When I need it again, I will come to you to get it. Or can you help me set up a safe house in Paris? I have money, so I can buy a house and put some necessary things in it."

Marina said without hesitation: "I'll keep it for you. What safe house is safer than a swimming pool?"

"Thanks, um, anything else?"

"No, we're done. You should get ready and go to England. Oh, one more thing. You rejected Emily's request to go with you. Are you dissatisfied with her in some way?"

“No, I just don’t want to cause trouble.”

"What trouble?"

"Well, it's... it's... that kind of trouble, you know."

Marina laughed and said, "I understand."

Marina smiled strangely, and Gao Yi couldn't help but ask, "What do you understand?"

"Nothing, go ahead, bye, I'll wait for your good news."

After she finished speaking, Marina suddenly switched to French and spoke a long, gibberish string of words.

Gao Yi didn't understand, he just wrote it down roughly and planned to ask someone later.
