In the afternoon, Tevens Cafe.

Lu Xiyan sat alone on the second floor by the window, holding a newly published pictorial "Good Friends" in his hand. The girl on the cover was wearing a light blue windbreaker and a pink round hat, creating a pure and playful feeling.

"Sir, your coffee."

"Thank you." Lu Xiyan nodded politely.

After taking a bite of coffee, Lu Xiyan continued to browse the pictorial in his hand. Although it was covered with some articles of cold and sadness, it was still good to take a look and improve his literary cultivation.

He made an appointment with Luo Yaozu, and it was 2:30.

Half a cup of coffee has gone down, and nearly ten minutes have passed. Luo Yaozu hasn't arrived yet. Lu Xiyan was a little surprised. He was never late, especially the experienced old agent, and the concept of time is very accurate.

Lu Xiyan decided to wait a little longer. If he didn't come again, he would leave first.

About five minutes later, Lu Xiyan saw a short and fat figure appearing at the entrance of the stairs. It was Luo Yaozu, with a gray windbreaker, top hat, and two beards on it, looking like a successful person.

"I'm sorry, I'm late, I'm having something to do at the moment." Luo Yaozu sat down in front of Lu Xiyan, took off his hat, and apologized.

"It's okay, it's good to come." Lu Xiyan said with a smile.

"Why did you make an appointment with such a place?" Luo Yaozu asked.

"I haven't reached the point where I've been bitten by a snake for ten years and I've been afraid of a rope. The environment here is good and the coffee is my taste. Could it be that I've been stabbed here and I can't come again?"

"It makes sense. Among the young people, there are not many people as brave as you." Luo Yaozu praised.

"Back to the point, I asked Uncle Yaozu to come because I wanted to tell you an important information." Lu Xiyan said solemnly.

"What information?"

"The Mei agency took the lead in establishing a demon spirit group, which is specifically responsible for dealing with ghosts. Of course, they have now confirmed that you, Uncle Yaozu, will lead the ghost again. In other words, next, this demon spirit group is for you." Lu Xiyan said.

"I'm going to take the blame for your military advisor so soon?"

"You can't say that. Our two families are now in a cooperative relationship. If you lose your lips and teeth, you will benefit from them." Lu Xiyan smiled, "We are not those who do not see the morality of the Military Control Commission."

"So, are you really a military advisor?" Luo Yaozu said in surprise. Lu Xiyan never admitted that he was a "military advisor", but his various behaviors were clearly working for the military advisor, and his status was not low.

"That's right, actually we have cooperation with the Military Control Commission." Lu Xiyan smiled.

Luo Yaozu was not surprised at all. The "military advisor" was originally promoted by Dai Yunong, the Military Commission's General Office. There is cooperation between the military advisor and the Military Commission. What's so strange about this?

"Don't get me wrong with Uncle Yaozu, I'm actually playing the role of an intermediary."

"Xiyan, you, the middleman, are not simple." Luo Yaozu said meaningfully.

"Our family, I'll cheat you, Meimei and Haozi can't spare me, do you think so?" Lu Xiyan smiled, picked up the coffee and took a sip.

"Little Fox." Luo Yaozu spat.

"hehe……"

"Don't take it lightly. Onitsuka is much better than Hattori. If he wasn't the surname Hattori, we might not have been able to win as easily on Tongyou Island." Luo Yaozu said.

"This time, we did meet a group of strong opponents, so we should plan carefully, especially Kiyoshi Akagi, who serves as the general counsel of the Demon Spirit Group, is a famous Japanese criminal investigation expert and counter-espionage expert. If he catches a flaw, it may bring huge danger." Lu Xiyan said seriously.

"Well, I will be careful. I really didn't expect that the unethical things they made in the Ice City were moved to Shanghai." Speaking of this, Luo Yaozu's eyes flashed with a strong murderous intent.

"Did Uncle Yaozu want to attack the East Asian Botanical Research Institute?"

"You know, too?"

"The East Asian Botanical Research Institute either does not move, and it will be uprooted if it moves. Once it is not eliminated, the consequences will be even more difficult to predict. Moreover, if it is not in Shanghai, they can go to Suzhou and Wuxi. They have the ability to build such a sinful and dirty bacterial research institute at any time." Lu Xiyan said.

"What do you think you should do?"

"Look at him and don't touch him for the time being. You just need to secretly destroy all his actions." Lu Xiyan said, "You can only take action unless we are sure to completely destroy it without posing a threat to the safety of our people."

"I understand, you are worried that if the action fails, it will lead to the leakage of bacteria and viruses, and the infection will cause disease, and more people will die, right?"

"Yes, I am a medical student. I know better than you the harm of the things that the Japanese are studying now. Shanghai is not under our control. The Japanese may not care about the lives and deaths of our compatriots, but we cannot ignore them. Even if we have to sacrifice, we cannot sacrifice innocent civilians, women, children, birds and beasts that are worse than those they can do, but we cannot do them." Lu Xiyan said solemnly.

"Well, then don't touch it for the time being." Luo Yaozu thought for a moment, nodded and agreed.

"We first observe and plan before moving on to this demon spirit group."

"Okay, listen to you." Luo Yaozu said, "I have a message to tell you. Just now, I received news from Peking that Marshal Wu Ziyu was critically ill, and it was probably only one or two days."

"Master Wu finally couldn't escape the Japanese's vicious hands." Lu Xiyan sighed.

"In this way, there is only one Wang family left in Japan to choose. The next step is that they will inevitably promote the merger between the north and the south and form a puppet regime." Luo Yaozu said.

"As expected, the Wang family really harmed the country and the people." Lu Xiyan cursed.

"After the merger of north and south, Shanghai, as a major financial and taxation site, will inevitably become the focus of the Wang family's competition. I don't know how long the mayor Jiang Xiao'an can sit on it." Luo Yaozu sneered.

"Jiang Xiao'an supports Wang on the surface, but in fact he is just using his relationship with Wang. I have also heard some rumors that although the Japanese support him, they do not attach much importance to him."

"Haha, he just wants to use the Japanese to pull the banner and snatch the tiger's skin to seek personal gain for himself, but the Japanese are not stupid. How can he be without working hard just thinking about making a profit?" Luo Yaozu said.

"I will notify you any time about the situation in the Demon Spirit Group." Lu Xiyan said, "I heard from Haozi that tomorrow is your birthday. He originally wanted to celebrate your birthday with you, but at this time, he is not suitable to appear in West Shanghai to avoid unnecessary trouble, so he prepared a gift for you."

"This kid still remembers..." Luo Yaozu's eyes turned slightly red and he said a little wet.

"Haozi has gifts, Meimei and I can't be empty-handed. We have prepared two gifts for you." Lu Xiyan took out a square wooden box from the kraft paper bag he carried with him.

"Where did you get the Uppman cigar? This brand of cigars almost went bankrupt five years ago." Luo Yaozu said in surprise.

"A friend gave it to me. I can't stand this kind of cigar. Haozi said that Uncle Yaozu likes cigars, so I'll give it to you as a birthday gift, which is very suitable for me." Lu Xiyan said.

"I haven't smoked cigars for several years. I don't want my opponent to know my preferences, so many of my past life habits have been changed." Luo Yaozu sighed.

"You can pick up these habits again."

"No, my current identity cannot afford to smoke such expensive cigars. However, I will collect your gift and I will treasure it. From now on, when the Japanese devils are driven away and the day of victory is won, I will smoke it again." Luo Yaozu said seriously.

"There will be a day." Lu Xiyan said confidently, "This is a goatskin glove, not a famous brand product. Meimei said that it is cold, and it is more practical to add a pair of warm gloves to Yaozu's uncle."

"No, not bad, this gift is very considerate, I like it very much." Luo Yaozu happily accepted it. In fact, no matter what Lu Xiyan and Meng Fanxing gave him, he was happy.

I have been wandering around for so many years, and I don’t have a single relative around me, so I’ve been celebrating his birthday.

"Uncle Yaozu, I wish you a happy birthday to me. I may not be able to have a meal together this year. If you have the chance next year, we will have a meal together." Lu Xiyan said.

"Thank you, tell me Xiao Hao for me, I'll block the troubles from the Central Commission for the Central Committee. The task of assassinating Ding Mo Village has nothing to do with him." Luo Yaozu said.

"What, aren't they going to give up?"

"Some people have decided to do it. They think it's something worth doing, so they can do it." Luo Yaozu, "Although we have different opinions, I can't stop them. After all, they are not doing it for themselves."

"It's understandable." Lu Xiyan nodded.

Suddenly, a reflection light diagonally outside the window shot onto the glass. Lu Xiyan reached out and pulled Luo Yaozu down.

Bang!

The sound is not loud.

A bullet penetrated the glass directly and shot towards the position where Lu Xiyan was just now.

It was another assassination, but this time it was a long-distance sniper.

The melodious light music in the cafe was not disturbed at all. The guests continued to drink coffee, chat with friends, and enjoy the warm and peaceful afternoon sunshine.

When Luo Yaozu looked up and saw a bullet crater on the back of Lu Xiyan's seat, he immediately understood that someone was asking Lu Xiyan's life.

Last time, after he left, Lu Xiyan was assassinated. This time he came a while later, and Lu Xiyan was assassinated again. What's the matter?

They are all in the same cafe and in the same location.

"Xiyan, are you in conflict with this cafe and this location?"

"How do I know? I don't come here often." Lu Xiyan said anxiously. Seeing the stairs, Xiaole's figure rushed over.

"Sir, there is a sniper, leave quickly." Xiaole pulled Lu Xiyan and ran towards the stairs.

"Hi, where are I?" Luo Yaozu shouted from behind.

Lu Xiyan was about to turn around, but Xiaole grabbed him: "Sir, don't worry about him, that fat man is very good and can't die."

Lu Xiyan could only shrugged helplessly from Luo Yaozu, meaning, you should ask for blessings.

"You are ruthless!" Luo Yaozu gritted his teeth and reached out to hold the gift given by Lu Xiyan on the table in his arms, as flexible as a small ball.
