The other man lying on the ground had a little mottled hair, but it was carefully groomed. Even though he was lying on the ground in an awkward position, it could be seen that he was a man who paid great attention to his appearance.
Hearing Fang Lang's question, the man said in a calm tone:
"My name is Paul. I lost my family in the war, so I'm staying at Leo's house temporarily."
"Yes! That makes perfect sense! I'm not a policeman, and I don't want to ask you about your origins.
But you shouldn't spy on me.
So can we all be honest with each other?"
As soon as Fang Lang heard the name, he thought it was fake, but he didn't care.
Fang Lang just wanted to know whether he was their target.
When Paul on the ground heard Fang Lang's words, his heart froze. He had never understood what was going on.
...
...
These people are not going anywhere, why are they coming straight towards them?
Moreover, these guards were obviously well-trained and were professional fighters.
Judging from the way the soldier addressed the young man in front of him, this person should be an officer.
However, judging from the chaotic skin color of these people, it is impossible to tell which country they are from.
It shouldn't be the French Foreign Legion, because it is impossible for the Foreign Legion to have a yellow person as its commander.
"Sir, I assure you that we have no intention of spying on you.
We are also victims of the war, so when we saw your convoy coming, we were a little scared. That’s why we hid in the dark and watched to make sure we were safe.”
Ordinary people would not be able to detect the abnormality here at all.
Even if they hadn't pointed their guns at Fang Lang, Fang Lang might not have noticed anything unusual here.
After all, it's normal to be watched by others.
It was impossible for Fang Lang to stop others from spying on him.
But being watched by people with sniper rifles is not normal.
The sense of danger of being pointed at by a gun was the reason why Fang Lang paid attention to them.
But asking like this obviously won't get you anything.
Moreover, the two men hid their guns immediately after noticing someone coming forward to scout, and were not caught at the scene pointing their guns.
Fang Lang couldn’t say, “I feel like you guys are pointing guns at me!”
Therefore, Fang Lang really couldn't do anything to the two of them for the time being.
"Okay! I believe you."
After saying that, he looked at Leo and said:
"Mind if I tour your house?"
The two people on the ground looked at each other, and Leo said helplessly:
"Did I refuse?"
Fang Lang smiled and said:
"Of course not."
"Then why are you asking me?"
Leo's face was filled with anger.
But Fang Lang just smiled and said nonchalantly:
"I'm a polite person."
"What if I say no?"
"This is not a good way to entertain guests. We can't be so rude."
Such bandit logic made the two people lying on the ground roll their eyes.
Leo also chose to keep silent and not say anything more.
Fang Lang smiled and said:
"Help these two gentlemen untie their bonds!"
Soon two soldiers came forward and cut the ropes on the two men with knives.
He lifted the two men up and pushed them to stand against the wall.
The two had already been thoroughly searched.
Looking at the four or five soldiers pointing submachine guns at them, the two men stood obediently against the wall, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.
Fang Lang paid attention to the expressions of the two people, walked back and forth in the living room, and glanced at the opened basement cover.
Looking at Leo, he said:
"Mind if I take a look at your basement?"
Leo shrugged indifferently and said:
"Haven't your people already gone in to search? I can't stop you if you want to see!"
Looking at Leo's tone, Fang Lang smiled and didn't mind.
But he didn't go down to the basement.
Instead, he continued to tour the first floor, and every time he arrived at a place, he would ask very politely if he could visit it.
Leo acted indifferent throughout the whole process.
Paul beside him had a submissive expression and did not express any opinions.
Fang Lang visited several rooms upstairs and downstairs, but did not find anything unusual.
Both of them seemed indifferent.
This made Fang Lang feel a little strange. Was his judgment wrong?
Are these two people really just simple veterans returning home?
Since nothing was discovered, Fang Lang couldn't really do anything to the two of them.
I could only prepare to leave in disappointment.
Thinking about chatting with the two of them for so long, I felt a little thirsty and looked at the teacup on the table.
But I didn't see any kettle on the sidewalk:
"Mr. Leo, do you have drinking water at home? Do you mind buying me a cup of coffee?"
After saying that, he walked towards the kitchen.
Just as Fang Lang turned to go to the kitchen, he noticed that Leo moved his hand, but was quickly stopped by Paul beside him.
And, he shook his head at Leo very secretly.
Obviously, Paul was a real master. He understood that everything Fang Lang had just done was actually to confirm the secret of the two by testing their reactions.
When Leo was about to take action because he was worried about exposing his secret, he was held down at the first moment.
Unfortunately, none of this escaped Fang Lang's eyes.
Fang Lang smiled and stopped playing. Instead, he said directly:
"Why? Any secrets in the kitchen? Mind sharing with me?"
Leo's face turned ashen, his eyes were spitting fire, and he quickly turned his head away, not wanting to communicate with Fang Lang anymore.
He is really a young man, so unstable and has no manners.
Fang Lang said silently in his heart.
Paul on the other side was obviously much more experienced. He smiled at Fang Lang and did not express his opinion.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Fang Lang didn't care and walked straight into the kitchen.
The kitchen is smaller than the ground floor and obviously has no suitable place to hide things.
Fang Lang searched every cabinet, but found nothing unusual.
Just when I was thinking that they might have some secret compartment in the kitchen, my eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of a place where firewood was piled up, and there were some papers that looked like they could be used as fire starter.
Fang Lang bent down and picked it up, and found that they were two maps with a few unclear marks on them.
I wondered in my mind, could it be that these two Gestapo were members of a resistance organization, preparing to attack the occupying forces?
"Are these two maps your secret? Are you a rebel?"
When they saw Fang Lang spread out two maps on the table to look at them, their faces changed. It was obvious that their hidden secrets had been discovered, and they felt a little panicked.
When Paul heard Fang Lang's question, his expression remained unchanged, and he looked nervous as if Fang Lang had discovered his secret.
If it weren't for the flash of disdainful smile on Leo's lips, Fang Lang almost believed them.
This is the real-life version of "I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, but I'm afraid of pig-like teammates!"
After carefully opening the two maps and comparing them, Fang Lang casually put the two maps away, crumpled them up, and threw them back where they were.
He smiled at the two of them and said:
"Okay! I believe that you two are not targeting me anymore.
Whether you are rebels or not has nothing to do with me.
I'm just a businessman, I hope you won't be so blind as to target me.
Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
After saying that, he brushed off the non-existent dust on his hands and body and walked out of the kitchen.
When he came to the two of them, he didn't forget to pat them on the shoulders.
Then he waved to Zhuang Xintian and others and walked out.
After returning to the car, Fang Lang looked back and said to Zhuang Xintian in the passenger seat:
“I’ll arrange a group of people to monitor the two people from a distance and don’t alarm them.
After returning to the hotel, I found two maps to see what these two guys were trying to do.
Also, take the Bollman family to the hotel and don't let these two bastards do anything to them."
Zhuang Xintian said seriously:
"Yes, boss!"
After saying that, he got out of the car and went to inform Pollman to move.
Fang Lang sat in the car, looking at Leo's house from a distance.
There were two soldiers standing at the door, guarding with guns.
Obviously, he was worried that the two would attack Fang Lang's departing convoy.
Fang Lang, who already had a general idea of the two people's goals, smiled and didn't say much.
Soon, Zhuang Xintian and several soldiers helped the Bolman family get their things and put them directly into a small car in front.
Portman didn't say much, just nodded at Fang Lang from a distance.
Instead, his wife and two children seemed somewhat excited.
After Zhuang Xintian returned to the car, he said to Fang Lang:
"Boss, do you want to get rid of those two Gestapo?"
Fang Lang looked at Zhuang Xintian and smiled:
"Why would you want to get rid of them?"
"Didn't you say they were the rebels?"
Zhuang Xintian asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Looking at Zhuang Xintian's expression, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly and said with a smile:
"Have they admitted it?"
Obviously, Zhuang Xintian has a straightforward military mindset. Since they have problems, just kill them directly.
Why so many twists and turns?
"Who cares if they admit it or not! We think so, and so they are."
"Don't be so murderous! Even if they are rebels, they are not rebelling against our army. What does it have to do with us?"
Fang Lang smiled leisurely.
“But now that we’ve discovered them, I’m a little worried that they might become an unstable factor for your safety in the future.
It is better to get rid of them immediately so that we don’t have to be on guard against them later.”
Zhuang Xintian’s focus has always been Fang Lang’s safety.
If it were normal, Fang Lang would certainly not keep these two Gestapo.
However, Fang Lang found some interesting things on the two maps, so he decided to observe whether his judgment was correct.
He patted Zhuang Xintian on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"Didn't I ask you to arrange someone to monitor them? If they really have any bad intentions towards us, we will definitely be able to discover it in advance, right?"
Knowing that Fang Lang had his own ideas, Zhuang Xintian didn't say anything more and could only nod silently.
"Sir, they're gone. Will he find us?"
Only when Fang Lang and his group had evacuated the neighborhood did Leo and Paul breathe a sigh of relief.
Leo asked with lingering fear when he saw Paul pick up the two maps from the kitchen and spread them out on the table again.
“It’s not certain yet, but the young Asian guy is a very powerful guy.
We have to be careful these two days.
Is there a safer, more secluded hiding place nearby?"
While looking at the map on the table, Paul was recalling Fang Lang's performance just now, hoping to confirm whether they had been exposed today.
"Are you worried that they might inform the French?"
Leo obviously didn't want to change places. After all, this was his home and the place he was most familiar with.
Although he hasn't been back for many years, this place gives him a sense of security.
