Chapter 104-Chapter 104
After noon, the temperature has gradually increased, the fog in the forest has all cleared, and the sound of the hound can be heard echoing from a distance.
"The thing that attracts me most about hunting is the process of hunting. Watching the targeted prey flee desperately. The panic and anxiety always makes people happy." Gongze rode on the horse, with the shotgun behind him. , The expression is relaxed.
"In these years, I like hunting red foxes the most. Red foxes usually appear at dusk and early morning. They are very alert and good at hiding their tracks. Normal hunting dogs can't catch them. But their smell is very heavy, so only A well-trained hunting dog with a good pedigree can still be found, and you can get a complete red fox with one shot. In my collection, there are a few well-preserved foxes, very beautiful, I have the opportunity to show you. "
The horse straddled the low bushes and shook Gongyue's figure. He nodded calmly, "Your hunting skills are very good. I have heard many people praise it."
Then, he said, "I remember that you and Old Carrick used to go hunting together in the ancient fox hunting field in North Yorkshire, England?"
Gongze nodded and smiled, "Old Carrick also likes hunting, so I have been with him a few times, but his body is a bit weak now, but he is old and not dead, and he still holds the right in his hands. It's boring,"
He smiled and looked at Gongyue, "However, don't worry too much about these things, you are still young, so you must be calm."
"Ok."
"Let's go, you hit more than a dozen pheasants this morning. I have asked the chef to wait in the villa on the edge of the forest. He has good craftsmanship. I go out hunting and I love to take him to cook game. "
Said and pointed in the direction, "When the dusk comes, our two nephews and uncles will come out to fight the red fox."
The two rode horses towards the depths of the woods. Gongyue was holding a shotgun in one hand, looking at the scenery in the woods, listening to Ye Shanshan’s voice in his headphones.
"Brother, Gongze is very well prepared. According to his plan, the villa you are going to will burn about at night. It is a man in his forties who set fire to him. He likes to gamble and loses. His family property was gone, and his wife had committed suicide. Now his company has changed hands and was acquired by a subsidiary of Miyaji-this is the motive for the crime. And you will be'dead' in this fire. Gongze himself will be injured and washed. Go suspicion."
Ye Shanshan's voice was a bit angry, "I guess in order to successfully complete this project, he should knock you out or use some drugs, anyway, it will make you unconscious, and then transfer you away, so be careful ."
There was a low response, Gongyue pinched the horse's belly, and continued to follow Gongze towards the villa.
At the destination, someone came and led the horse away.
Gongyue looked at the building in front of him. It was flat and cuboid. The whole structure was made of wood. Because of the age, some parts of it were a bit decayed.
"This is the house I designed and built by myself when I was your age. Look at these materials." Gongze stepped on the steps. "It was me who took the workers and went to the surrounding woods to select trees and cut them down. They are made into wooden boards and built up one by one."
The soles of the boots stepped on the brown-black wooden steps, making a low voice, and Gongyue followed Gongze into the door.
It's very spacious, with ancient bows, elk heads, and fox fur hanging on the walls. In the back kitchen, the smell of meat has already spread.
Gongze took off his gloves and took a sip of warm wine. "I always wanted to come over with me, hunting, drinking, and barbecuing together. The whole family is so happy, but maybe this wish could not be realized. "
Gongyue did not speak.
Knowing the taciturn character of his nephew, Gongze didn't care, changed the topic of business and went on, Gongyue spoke a lot more often.
After the barbecue was served, the caramel-colored surface made a "sizzling" sound, and the aroma was very attractive. Gongyue inadvertently glanced at the person behind the chef and found that the other person nodded towards him, so when Gongze persuaded him to taste the pheasant meat, he also took a small piece with a knife, but the one at hand The cup never touched.
In the afternoon, the two played chess by the window.
The black chess is made of black gold and obsidian, and the white chess is carved with ivory. The hand feels cool and delicate. The chess piece landed on the black and white grid with a crisp "pop", Gongze mentioned it casually.
"Last time I received news, you fainted during a meeting, and then you were sent directly to the hospital, and even the shares were transferred to your kid's hands. Are you better now?"
"There is nothing wrong with the body, acting in the play. After all, if you want to move the old people who are always wrong, it is not good to come out in person." Gongyue rubbed the chess pieces in his hand, "The roundabout tactics are very smooth, the only obstacle is the old Kari. odd."
"You are better than your dad," his eyes changed for a moment, and soon Gongze laughed again, "your dad doesn't have the courage of yours. I heard that someone on your side came to see Catherine, I knew , You may be really ready to uproot those'thorns'."
"I also rely on your help."
After playing a few more games, it was almost time, Gongze rang the bell. After a while, the chef brought a plate of dim sum and two cups of fruit tea. Gongyue's gaze swept over the person before, and when he found that the other person was not looking at him, he withdrew his gaze.
The desserts are very sweet, topped with jam and the color is also very nice. Gongze took a sip of fruit tea and introduced, "This dim sum is my chef's unique job. It's really delicious. You can try it."
As he said, he picked up the clean tableware next to him and handed one to Gongyue.
Gongyue did not answer.
"I still don't like to eat sweets? I remember that when you were a kid, you often followed me and asked me to quietly give you a biscuit. It was very cute at that time." Gongze insisted and motioned to Gongyue to take the food in his hand and taste it. taste.
Gongyue still did not answer.
At this time, Gongze narrowed his smile and looked at Gongyue, obviously a little unhappy.
Looking down at the exquisite dessert that was handed to him, Gongyue looked at Gongze again, "So, you still remember my childhood." He didn't have any expression, but his eyes were like spikes.
Gongze paused, maintaining a kind attitude, and said, "Remember, besides, before your father's death, please ask us to take care of you. Of course I will do my part."
"That's really dedicated."
Perceiving something wrong, Gongze just wanted to move when he realized that Gongyue's hand was faster than him.
When his hand just touched the shotgun next to him, his eyebrows were already against the muzzle, and the person holding the gun was Gongyue.
"What do you mean?" The surrounding bodyguards had pointed their guns at Gongyue, but did not dare to act rashly.
Gongyue's hand was steady, he was pointed at by the muzzle of the surrounding black holes, and his face did not change. He used his hand to grind it with the muzzle,
"Is this really unaware, or pretending not to know?"
The atmosphere stagnated.
After a while, the expression in Gongze's eyes changed. It was completely different from his previous smile. As his facial muscles tightened, two deep wrinkles appeared at the corners of his mouth, "You know?"
"know."
"How long has it been?" Hearing this answer, Gongze breathed in confusion, and then pretended to calmly maintain his expression.
"Soon." The hand holding the gun was still steady.
"Young man," Gongze snorted, "Your people didn't follow from the castle, so you think you would be shot into a hornet's nest before shooting my head?"
Feeling that the force on the eyebrows was not relaxed, Gongze continued, "I think we may have some misunderstandings and need to talk."
Gongyue shook his head and denied Gongze's proposal, "Your speculation just now will not be realized with me."
Before his words fell, three four-rotor hummingbird drones rose silently from the woods around the house, and there was no noise except the rustling of leaves.
At this time, the muzzle on the small drone was pointed in the direction of Gongze's bodyguard, and the infrared detector looked like the eyes of death.
In Gongyue's ears, Ye Shanshan's voice, "He only has these eight bodyguards. The people in the castle have been restrained by Chris, don't worry."
Facing this situation, the eight bodyguards of Gongze put down their guns one after another, raised their hands, and retreated a certain distance.
Looking at Gongze whose eyes were splitting, Gongyue spoke very slowly, "Look, you can indeed take back what you just said."
In this situation, recalling Gongyue's abnormal performance during this period of time, Gongze's eyes sharpened, "You didn't come to me for the purpose of arranging power at all. The matter of cooperating with me to overtake Old Carrick is just a blindfold."
"Hmm." Gongyue did not deny.
"So, your memory is actually—"
"Don't do useless work." Gongyue's hand pressed hard, Gongze was pushed back slightly by the force from the gun, and he heard Gongyue continue to say, "The signal has been blocked. Have I amnesia? Will you die? , Durant doesn't even know."
As he said, he picked up the cup, and as soon as he loosened his hand, the cup fell to the ground.
"So, tell me, when did you form an alliance with Durant."
Found that Gongze didn't mean to speak, "I don't have much patience now." Gongyue took out a small pistol and shot it directly at Gongze's foot. The sound of gunshots shook people's eardrums, and there were shocking bullets and marks on the wooden ground.
"Say?"
This time, Gongze didn't hold on for long. He pursed his lips. "It was after Gong Youli left the palace and joined the God Creation Project. I provided him with money and contacts, and he gave me the research results."
Spotting Gongyue's hand with the pistol pointing to his leg, he took a deep breath, "The car accident was indeed my hand, but I didn't hurt you. I was just cooperating with Durant's plan."
He is fighting for himself.
Gongyue played with the pistol, without the slightest intention, "Now, your subordinates can't save you, Durant can't save you, only you can save yourself." He said, looking at Gongze along the shotgun, "Look at us For the sake of blood, I might take this gun away."
Gongze squeezed his five fingers, and finally chose to confess. From signing a contract with Durant to experimenting with his illegitimate children, they died. Later, Durant saw Gong Ji and offered to try Gong Ji. He agreed. He didn’t expect Gong Ji to survive, but he didn’t. Can withstand the power of medicine. He even said all the actions of Durant that he had known in these years.
"why?"
Knowing what Gongyue was asking, Gongze grinned, showing a slightly distorted smile.
"I'm not convinced. Why do I have to watch him take over the position of Gongshi when I am obviously better than my eldest brother? Since childhood, no matter what, everyone will praise him because of his eldest son! Then he died, When you were only a teenager, you were put in that position by everyone. Why? Just because you are his son!"
"So, I want to be stronger, stronger than everyone!"
"Really?" Gongyue looked at the jealous man, "Do you want to live longer?"
Without denying, Gongze's eyes were ridiculed and crazy, "Don't you want to? With so much power in your hand and so much squandering property, you don't want to live longer? Younger?"
His eyes became frenzied, "You don't even need to wait for the success of the god creation plan. As long as the alpha reagent is really developed, my aging organs can be reactivated, and I will be reborn! At that time, you will only I stepped on it."
At this moment, there was a clear sound of horseshoes and footsteps coming closer and closer.
Gongze heard it too, his expression was a momentary surprise, but when he found out that the person who came was Gongyue's subordinate who had been left in the castle before, he was disappointed again.
Gong Ji, who hurried over, was hugged all the way by Chris. After reaching the flat ground, he got into the wheelchair.
"Why are you here?" Gongyue asked as he looked at the slowly approaching person. Ye Shanshan told him in advance that Gong Ji had already rushed over here, so he was not surprised.
Gong Ji smiled brightly, "Big Brother, I just want to come and take a look." His eyes fell on the controlled Gongze, with a complicated expression.
When Gongze heard this voice, his eyes suddenly widened, "Why are you here?" Looking at the sudden appearance of Gong Ji with difficulty, he shouted out, and then quickly realized what was going on. , Looked at Gongyue incredulously, "Have you colluded?"
Admiring the appearance of his father who has never been so embarrassed, Gong Ji smiled, "As you can see."
He lowered his head and glanced at his completely deformed legs, which were covered by pants. There was a hint of sarcasm at the corners of his mouth. "Don't you always think I am useless, just a useless person? How do you feel now?"
After finishing speaking, I felt that I shouldn't lose control of my emotions because of such a person. Gong Ji closed his eyes, his tone calmed down, and finally said,
"Perhaps I should be happy. I'm still alive, although it's ugly and disgusting. But at least it's not like your illegitimate children outside, born one after another, sent to do experiments, and finally died one after another. ."
"How would you know?"
"I know a lot. Do you want me to tell you one by one?"
Gong Ji stared at the man who had been called his father for 20 years, feeling that life was really so unexpected and so absurd.
"I used to think that you love me." After speaking, he laughed out himself first, "It is obvious that I am really stupid."
"Small traces--"
"Why, want to beg me?" Gong Ji was already pushing the wheelchair by himself, and approaching him, he looked at the restrained Gongze and tilted his head almost innocently. "Dad, you don't know, seeing you like this, How happy am I?"
As he said, tears flowed down.
The despair that has been deepening day after day for so many years, the extreme pain of being unable to fall asleep every night, the fear that I may never wake up every time I lose consciousness, and the ossified body every inch. Hopeless struggle
——He always thought that he was lucky to have parents who loved him so much. He even dared not give up any hope of life for this.
But the truth made him understand how ridiculous he really was.
"Big Brother," Gong Ji looked at Gongyue, making himself laugh as much as possible, "Can you give him to me?"
Gongyue nodded, "Yes."
"No!" Gongze's expression suddenly became scared. He looked at Gongyue, "I still know many secrets about Durant!"
Gong Ji answered, "You are lying, Durant is very guarded, you are just his partner." Then, he took out a palm-sized data disk and handed it to Gongyue, "As a thank you gift."
Gongyue nodded and took it.
"Thank you, brother." Gong Ji smiled hard at the other person again, and when he looked at Gongze, he slowly reduced all the expressions on his face, but just watched without making any movements.
Gongze felt fear, and he felt the fear of extinction from his own trash son. He didn't even dare to move, didn't dare to mention Catherine, didn't dare to make the slightest noise.
He clearly felt that Gong Ji hated him and wanted to kill him.
Finding that Gongze was already scared and his fingers were twitching unconsciously, Gong Ji suddenly didn't want to look at this ugly state anymore. He moved quickly and took out his pistol and aimed it at Gongze's temple. In the fearful eyes of the other party, He pressed the trigger and the machine without hesitation.
With a "bang", blood splashed on Gong Ji's face.
He looked down at the man who had fallen to the ground, and had lost his breath. There were blood drops on his eyelids, which flowed down his cheeks like a tear of blood.
After a while, he raised his head and looked at Gongyue seriously, "Please tell Shining for me, that record, I really like it, that is the first gift I received from a friend, of course, if he treats me As a friend."
Without waiting for the people around to react, he raised the gun again, aimed it at his heart, and fired it without any hesitation.
"Gong Ji!" Gongyue stood up quickly, walked quickly over and half-kneeled on the ground, his hand firmly covered the hideous wound, but the blood still flowed from his fingers.
Seeing Gongyue’s shocked and anxious expression, Gong Ji’s mouth was smiling, and he was speechless, only intermittent mouth shapes.
——My life, as long as I took the medicine, was over.
