"What?" Loli's eyes suddenly lit up, "You saw Chen Que?"
"I haven't met him in person." Pei Ji said nonchalantly, "But I heard from my channels that he seems to have been ill recently and hasn't been out."
Loli murmured, "No wonder..."
No wonder they didn't see him go out for three days.
Yesterday was supposed to be the time for Shen Que to go to Lucui Sanatorium for treatment, and he didn't see the Pei family's airship near the sanatorium.
"So what are your plans now?" Loli asked quickly, "You said you're missing something, what is it?"
"A little technical support." Pei Ji glanced at her. "But this has nothing to do with you, right?"
He said and turned to leave.
"Wait!" Loli stopped him quickly, "Maybe I can help you?"
She blinked her eyes and put on a cute expression with her little girl skin.
"If I can help you, why bother the boss?"
"Anyway, what we want doesn't conflict, so we can just cooperate. After we kill Shen Que, you want your 3S mecha, and I want my star coins."
Pei Ji sneered: "Are you really planning to kill Shen Que with your own hands?"
Loli was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean?"
Pei Ji turned around slowly.
"What I mean is, I don't plan to kill him myself, and this is what I'm going to talk to the boss about."
"I'm not saying you guys..." The little boy raised his eyebrows, "Are you thinking this matter is too simple?"
A hint of doubt flashed in Loli's eyes.
Pei Ji: "Do you think that if you kill Shen Que, get the money or the person from the boss, and run away, then this matter will be over?"
"That's Shen Que! He's not some nameless little sparrow. If you kill him, will Pei Ji let it go? Will Bai Shaxing let it go? Will Messiah let it go?"
"Have you never experienced what it's like to be on the run? It's no better than being fed to worms or hung at the gate of the Imperial Court like dried bacon, little girl."
Loli babbled: "Then you want to..."
Pei Ji said coldly, "You absolutely cannot be the executioner. If you become the one who does it, your life will be over."
"The boss wants Shen Que dead. As long as we hand Shen Que over to him, he can still have him dead."
Loli babbled: "But isn't it because the boss couldn't do it himself that he asked us to do it?"
"You really are an obedient little cat." Pei Ji smiled disdainfully, "It's not that he can't do it himself, but that he doesn't have the ability to do it himself."
"Maybe someone was watching him, or maybe he just wanted to keep his hands clean. It doesn't matter. I'm not interested in knowing his reasons."
"Anyway, I have a way to hand Shen Que over to him. As for whether or not to accept my conditions, that's something he has to consider."
Loli's face darkened as she kept talking. Pei Ji curled his lips and left the lounge, leaving her to digest the situation on her own.
Pei Ji was 100% sure.
Soon, this statement will reach the ears of the other three people, and then it will be a matter of waiting for them to take the initiative to cooperate.
There was also the negotiation with Ganier, which changed from killing Shen Que to capturing Shen Que.
Pei Ji knew that the old man would definitely agree.
Because he had no other choice.
…
The heart of the desert.
In the mining control room, only a floating light was dimly lit.
Garnier stood quietly in the dim room, his tall figure appearing blurry in the dim light.
The air was filled with a damp and chilly atmosphere, accompanied by the rhythmic roar of machines.
A screen of light lit up, reflecting the baron's gloomy profile.
A familiar silhouette soon appeared on the screen, and the man said, "Has the mission been completed?"
Garnier smiled and said, "Not yet."
"So you're looking for me to make a request?"
"I guess so."
Garnier's eyes reflected the faint blue light of the light curtain, and the words that the little boy said to him emerged in his mind.
"I can help you bring him here, at any location of your choice, but I won't do it myself."
Garnier narrowed his eyes. "I have a chance to kill Shen Que, but it's not very safe."
A living commander is certainly more dangerous than a dead one.
But the sad cat head insisted on catching them alive, and apart from him, the other four losers were completely useless.
Pei Li's men were keeping a close eye on him, and all the estates under his name were under surveillance, so this was the most suitable place to attack.
"Nothing related to him is safe." The person on the screen said in a deep voice, "Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"
"I need warships," Garnier said.
If Sad Cat Head really tied Chen Que here, he must prepare for the worst - the plan of being exposed.
"Sure." The person on the screen agreed readily, "I'll get you a private army."
"Call Lusjang as well," said Garnier.
The man paused.
"The Fifth Fleet is an official fleet and it is not convenient for it to come forward."
"I don't need him to engage in a head-on conflict with Baisha Star. I just need him to help me hold back Pei Ji's Fourth Fleet. I mean, just in case."
There was a hint of shrewdness and ruthlessness in Ganir's eyes.
"Pei Ji is still suspended and doesn't have the authority to mobilize the Fourth Fleet, but I'm worried he'll order his adjutant or someone else to take action, which would be very difficult to deal with..."
The person on the screen hesitated and said, "Okay."
"Also, I hope to borrow some...insects from the White Sand Planet," Garnier said again.
"Don't you have some mutated experimental subjects in your hands?" the person on the screen said coldly.
"The level is too low," Garnier said bluntly. "Those experiments are only A-level at best. They're all trash."
"I can provide several jump points for the Zerg to stay at. As long as there are no major problems, they will not be used."
"It's too dangerous." The person on the screen said, "Too many Zerg will expose our future plans."
Garnier uttered a "tsk".
He understood that what the man said meant there was no room for negotiation.
But a private army and an official fleet that he could not control could not guarantee absolute safety.
"You can use that," the person on the screen suddenly said, "as long as you can control it."
An expression of surprise suddenly appeared on Garnier's face, but he quickly restrained it. He put his hand on his chest and bowed to the person on the screen.
"Don't worry, I will use it well."
"Hoping to hear good news from you."
The screen turns off.
Garnier slowly raised his head, a subtle curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.
At the same time, the person on the other side of the screen looked at the disappearing light curtain, tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingertips, and connected to another frequency.
"Open the No. 2 and No. 3 insect nests near Baisha Star... Wait... Yes... Prioritize transferring the gold sand and the manufactured mechas... Hmm..."
