Chapter 374: Isn’t that enough?

Chapter 374: Isn’t that enough?
All for the garden.

But Gao Yi didn't have much affection for the garden. In comparison, he felt more of a sense of belonging to the Warhammer Mercenaries.

For Gao Yi, the biggest knot in his life, and also the biggest shadow, is that he cannot accept the result that if he treats someone well, he will lose that person.

Gao Yi is not afraid of anything except owing favors to others.

I am especially afraid of owing favors that I can’t repay.

But as for the garden, to be honest, Gao Yi has almost done it.

Sean wanted to revive the garden, and Gao Yi helped him do it. Even though it is the Sky Garden that is famous now, everyone knows that the Sky Garden is just a smaller version of the garden.

Now John says it's all for the garden, so let him show up for the garden.

"Great!"

Gao Yi grabbed John's hand.

John didn't want Gao Yi to hold his hand, but how could he avoid it?

Gao Yi held John's hand and shook it up and down, then he said sincerely: "I believe you can make the garden great again. You are the real gardener. The garden is handed over to you. The garden is returned to you. If you need help in the future, just let me know. Keep in touch."

John's eyes widened and he stared at Gao Yi in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Shouting slogans?
Gao Yi hates people who shout slogans the most. Since John likes to shout slogans, he will not serve him.

John may not have seen such a difficult-to-foolery young person. In his opinion, young people are always passionate and impulsive. They will get excited once slogans are shouted, and it will be much easier to manipulate them afterwards.

When faced with someone like Gao Yi, John is a little overwhelmed.

Gao Yi let go of John's hand, and then he said sincerely: "There is not much money in the Garden's account, but the safe house and the network of connections left before are still there. I basically haven't used them. When you come back and take over the Garden, you can immediately..."

"Etc., etc!"

John finally pulled his hand back. He interrupted Gao Yi impatiently and said in astonishment: "When did I say I wanted to take back the garden? No, I mean, do you think I have the intention of becoming a gardener again?"

“All for the garden!”

Gao Yi nodded heavily and said seriously, "Since everything is for the garden, then it's simple. You have experience and ability, so of course you should be the gardener. Look at me, I can't even be a killer. If I manage the garden, it might be gone one day, or it might become a mercenary group. So for the garden, you have to come back."

John stared at Gao Yi, his mind was working very fast.

John quickly judged the situation and analyzed Gao Yi's character. He felt that he had made some misjudgments before, so he chose his next attitude in the shortest time.

Gao Yi doesn't play by the rules.

Gao Yi refused to be kidnapped by morality and refused to be kidnapped by emotions.

I hate shouting slogans and I hate being led by the nose.

If you play tricks on him and he doesn't play tricks on you, he will just abandon you.

Therefore, the previous approach of gradually conquering a young person will not work.

John sighed and whispered, "I want to be a gardener. I dream of taking back the garden and being my own gardener, but I can't. It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't!"

Gao Yi spread his hands and said, "Why can't I do that?"

"Because of my identity, I... Let me tell you from the beginning."

John sat up straighter, and then he said seriously: "The garden has been passed down for a long time, and the previous gardener before me was my father! Please don't get me wrong, gardeners are not hereditary, and the garden is not a tool to make money. Of course, the garden is not a carrier of great ideals. The garden is just a killer organization, a famous killer organization that enjoys a high reputation among the top leaders of European countries. Of course, it can make a lot of money."

Not knowing what John wanted to say, Gao Yi chose to listen attentively.

John spread his hands and said, "My father is Sir Danny Dyson. He was born in Brighton, and then he went to London when he was young and became a... small gangster. My father started as a gangster and became the backbone of one of the three largest gangs in London. Then World War II came. Life was difficult after the end of World War II. He went to prison and was released when he was forty years old. Then he met the Garden, which was also hit hard by the war. Well, let me add that the people of the Garden followed Charles de Gaulle to the UK, but did not return to France."

Gao Yi didn't know the specific history of the garden, and now that John wanted to tell him, he could let him do it.

John continued in a low voice: "I was born in 1953. My father had already joined the garden at that time. His role was the same as Sean's, that is, a bee, responsible for attracting business to the garden. But the situation was not optimistic. His income was poor and unstable, and then our family went through a long period of poverty. But when my father was able to really decide some things about the garden, the situation began to improve." Scratching his head, John smiled bitterly and said, "To make a long story short, my father ran a good garden and made him a lot of money. Then my father used the money he earned from the garden to do business. The business was very big at one point, and finally he became a famous real estate developer and was awarded the title of life baron by the royal family."

I don’t know what John meant by starting with his dad.

John said seriously: "The Garden was at its peak at that time and accomplished many tasks. Until 1970, I was still hanging out on the streets, drinking, fighting, and supporting Tottenham Hotspur. But suddenly one day, I was knocked unconscious by several people, put in a sack, and brought to my father by them."

Gao Yi's eyes widened. After thinking carefully about the relationship involved, he whispered, "You are... an illegitimate child?"

"Yes."

John didn't laugh. He said seriously, "That was the first time I met him. My father had my two calf bones broken and then had the best orthopedic surgeon connect them for me. Then he told me that you are his son and you should go to school now. You need to learn knowledge and become a great man. I will give you a huge fortune in the future, but now, you need to stay here and heal your injuries. I will let you go after your bones are healed."

Gao Yi said in confusion: "I am beginning to be curious."

"I just felt humiliated at the time. I didn't even know him, but I often saw him on TV. Then I thought about what he said would give me a lot of wealth, so I thought, I should just endure it."

Shrugging his shoulders, John said calmly, "That was a very happy but also difficult time, because my father found four people to teach me in turn. I needed to catch up on all the courses I missed in the past two years within four months, and spend another four months learning new knowledge. Even though I was in a wheelchair, I still had to study for sixteen hours a day."

Gao Yi's mouth twitched, and he said, "How do you feel happy on a day like this? Are you a masochist?"

"Because in addition to the four teachers, there are four beauties. If I don't like them, I can change them at any time. If I like them, I can keep them. As long as I don't get them pregnant, anything is fine."

Gao Yi opened his mouth wide immediately and asked in astonishment: "You were 17 years old that year?"

"Yes, 17."

Gao Yi took a breath of cold air. John continued calmly, "I recovered from my leg. In fact, I am quite smart. Then I was admitted to the London School of Economics and Political Science, Department of Political Science, Political Science and International Relations. But I thought I would be given a lot of money. Unfortunately, I wasn't. When I was kicked out of that comfortable nest, my father didn't give me a single pound. It was as if I had never met him."

After finishing speaking, John exhaled and said, "Then the year I graduated, MI6 went to recruit new people. I signed up and joined MI6. At that time, my idea was to avoid being found by my father. I became an elite, an intelligence elite. Then I worked in MI6 for ten years. When I was thirty-one, I suddenly received a call. Someone said my father wanted to see me."

Spreading his hands, John smiled and said, "He ordered my legs to be broken when we first met. The second time we met was almost eleven years later. By that time, my father was about to die."

Gao Yi wanted to say that at least you saw how your father looked when he was dying.

Seeing Gao Yi's expressionless face, John continued, "In front of his sickbed, my father, whom I had only met twice, said he was going to die. Before he died, he left me a legacy. I thought I would finally have a large sum of money, but in the end, he gave me a garden."

Spreading his hands, John smiled bitterly and said, "His eldest son inherited the real estate company, the second son inherited the newspaper group, the third daughter inherited a manor and a horse farm and about 40 million pounds in cash, and I took over a garden, a garden for sixteen people."

It sounds reasonable for an illegitimate child to inherit a property that cannot be seen in the light of day.

John smiled and said, "No one knows that a junior officer in the Policy Intelligence Analysis Office of MI6 is in charge of a garden with seven of the world's top assassins. And, this garden can earn more than 10 million pounds in cash every year. Oh, by the way, 10 million pounds in the 1980s is really amazing."

"Do you hate your father, or are you grateful to your father?"

Gao Yi suddenly asked an irrelevant question.

John thought for a moment and said, "Neither hate nor appreciate. My mother was just one of his many mistresses. He abandoned her after he got tired of her. I didn't even know he existed when I was old enough to hate him. After I knew he existed, I couldn't hate him either. After all, he pulled me back from being a waste. But I'm not grateful to him either, because he didn't fulfill most of the responsibilities a father should have."

Gao Yi nodded and said, "I just don't feel anything. I don't love or hate her. I just pretend that she doesn't exist."

"I can't pretend this person doesn't exist because he has such a huge impact on me."

John smiled and said, "I retired as the Director of Operations of MI6. I was in charge of operations, not intelligence, because being in charge of intelligence would be more strictly scrutinized, and I didn't want to expose my identity as a gardener. But in the end, how could I not be exposed to intelligence? So, why did the Andek Group look for me? Besides the fact that they didn't know I was a gardener, it was also because of my status when I retired and the achievements I made while working."

Gao Yi whispered, "Are you amazing? I mean, when you were in MI6, were you so amazing that the Andek Group knew you and asked you to be the head of their European department?"

John sighed softly and said, "My men are in charge of the scorpions."

He said one sentence and then it was gone.

Gao Yi was puzzled and asked, "That's it?"

John frowned and said, "That's it? Isn't that enough?"
