Chapter 123: There is no good end for pretending!
“Why should I answer your question?”
“That’s right. Even LSD can’t get me to answer anything. Now it’s even more impossible for you to answer my questions. It seems that Irina can only answer all my questions for me.”
“So she told you my name. Did you go find her?”
“Yes, we met during the day.”
“Then let me guess. You prepared seven days’ worth of food first. This proves that you won’t be back in the short term. Are you afraid that our people will follow you and find me?”
Roy smiled and said, “Almost.”
Serena said, “It’s night outside now, right?”
Roy nodded: “Hmm…”
Selina continued, “Even though I can’t tell the time, it’s been more than a dozen hours since you brought me here. Since you met her during the day and came back so soon, if I’m not mistaken, you must have reached some kind of agreement with her. Are you here to release me?”
Roy smiled and said, “You are just as smart as her.”
“Haha, I never thought you dared to kill me. If I died, you would be hunted down endlessly until you die.” Selena said proudly.
“Ha ha!”
Roy laughed at Serena’s words.
Standing up, Roy said to the cell door: “Well, you are right. I will not kill you, but I can lock you up here forever. As long as my brothers complain, I will bring them to find you, and then I will make a few fruits of love. You will spend your whole life in this dungeon without sunlight.”
After saying this, Roy turned and walked towards the workshop.
bang bang bang-
Serena slammed the metal door and yelled, “Hey! Come on, come on, I apologize. Hey, hey, damn it, don’t leave! I apologize!”
Roy paused: “Are you still pretending?”
“Sorry! Please let me out…”
“Haha!” Roy laughed, “Wait.”
Returning to the workshop, Roy took out an angle grinder, a roll of tin foil and reinforced tape. He used the angle grinder to cut off the steel gasket that sealed the cell, opened the outer lock, opened the cell door, and Selena, who was already dressed, came into view.
Roy threw the reinforced tape and the roll of tinfoil into the cell and said, “Listen, I’m taking you away now. Don’t try to be clever. You are no match for me. Be good and you will suffer less.”
Looking at the tape and tin foil on the ground, Serena nodded helplessly, then rolled her eyes: “Okay, everything is up to you.”
After entering the cell, Roy tied up Selina’s hands and feet with reinforced tape. Just as he was about to seal her mouth with tape, Selina said, “That’s not necessary. I won’t scream…”
“Can……”
Throwing the unused tape onto the bed, Roy began to wrap Serena’s entire body with tin foil, saying, “I’m not sure if you have a locator on you, so bear with it for now.”
This time, Serena didn’t say anything.
After a while, Selina turned into tin-wrapped meat again.
To prevent the location of the safe house from being revealed, Roy covered Selena’s eyes with blackout cloth, then wrapped her head with tinfoil, leaving only two holes in her nostrils for breathing.
After doing all this, Roy directly carried Selina, who had become tin-wrapped meat, took the old elevator to the floor of the warehouse, opened the trunk lid of the Ford SUV, and threw Selina into the trunk.
“Hey! Be gentle!”
boom–
The tailgate is closed.
Ten minutes later, Roy’s Ford SUV appeared on the streets of Brooklyn. He did not send Serena back directly, but started to drive around with Serena, who had turned into a cicada pupa.
There was no way. Roy was guarding against Selina, who could roughly estimate how far the car had driven by feeling the speed of the car and silently reading the seconds. This was an essential skill for an excellent agent.
The result was what Roy had guessed. From the moment the car started, Selena had been counting the time in her mind, while feeling the speed through the subtle changes caused by the vehicle’s bumps.
At the traffic light ahead, Roy slowed down the car.
Finally, the car stopped at a red light.
At this moment, a police car slowly stopped beside Roy’s car. The passenger window was lowered. Lampard took out the gum from his mouth and threw it on the window on Roy’s side.
Roy rolled down the window.
Lampard smiled and said, “What are you going to do?”
Roy casually explained: “To a friend’s place.”
Half of his body was leaning against the car window. Lampard looked at Roy and said, “Did you know that Chief Gordon changed the patrol teams’ duty areas today? Your Group B was assigned to the South District?”
Roy nodded: “I know, Mia called me.”
Lampard said: “The new area that our A team is responsible for is not far from you. If anything happens, you must use the radio to inform us as soon as possible. The brothers are counting on you.”
Roy smiled and shook his head helplessly.
The green light came on, Roy waved goodbye to Lampard, stepped on the accelerator and drove straight through the traffic light. His taillights disappeared in the traffic, and Lampard’s police car turned left and continued patrolling.
Crossing the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan, and then crossing the Third Avenue Bridge from Manhattan into the Bronx, Roy finally parked the SUV in a dark alley.
Seeing that there was no one around, Roy got out of the car, opened the trunk door, and used a wallpaper knife to gently cut open the tin foil that was wrapped five or six times. Selena, whose whole body was soaked with sweat, reappeared in Roy’s sight.
“Hey, are you going to turn me into barbecue? Don’t you ever turn on the air conditioner when you drive? Do you know how uncomfortable it is to be wrapped in this thing? Also, are you going to drive the car to Washington DC?” Selena, who was soaked all over, complained.
Roy’s face twitched: “I saw that the weather was good tonight, so I didn’t turn on the air conditioner. I forgot that you were in this situation. Sorry!”
“I think you did it on purpose! Untie me!”
Serena looked displeased.
Roy used a wallpaper knife to remove the tape that bound the other person’s hands and feet.
Jumping out of the car, Selena asked:
“Where are you sending me?”
Roy replied:
“Of course it’s your sister’s place. She wants to see you.”
After glaring at Roy, Selina walked to the passenger door, opened it, and the first thing she did after getting in the car was to turn on the air conditioner.
Looking at Serena’s walking posture, Roy smiled calmly, thinking to himself, she is indeed a professionally trained agent, with much better physical fitness than Mia and Ivanka, just like your sister, no matter what happens, she is fine…
According to the address given by Irina, Roy drove the Ford SUV straight to the Upper East Side of Manhattan…
On the way, Roy turned his head and looked at Selina, who was soaking wet: “There are tissues in the glove box in front of you.”
Selina ignored Roy and opened the glove box in front of her. A Glock pistol immediately caught her eye, and there was a tissue next to the pistol. After looking at the pistol for a while, Selina glanced at Roy who was concentrating on driving. Seeing that he didn’t even look at her, Selina reached out to touch the pistol, and the moment she picked it up, she quickly let go and then picked up the tissue.
Closing the glove box, Selina began to wipe the sweat from her forehead, cheeks and neck, saying as she wiped, “There’s a gun in the glove box, but it’s not loaded with bullets.”
Roy smiled…
“What? Are you testing me?”
Selina turned and looked at Roy.
Roy smiled and said nothing.
“Tsk! Joker!”
Selina turned her head away and stopped talking.
When they were about to reach their destination, Serena spoke again:
“Turn right up ahead onto Madison Avenue, then turn left at the next intersection and you’ll see it.”
Roy: “…”
Following Selena’s instructions, the Ford SUV finally stopped at the door of a villa in Manhattan, close to Central Park.
Owning a single-family villa in Manhattan, New York, where every inch of land is valuable, is something that ordinary office workers dare not even dream of.
The electric gate of the villa slowly opened and Roy drove in.
Four bodyguards wearing gray suits and transparent duct-type earphones, the same as those worn by Secret Service agents, were standing in front of the villa’s main entrance.
After parking the car in front of the main entrance, Roy and Selena pushed the door open and got out at the same time. When the four bodyguards saw Selena, they bowed their heads slightly.
The two bodyguards standing inside the door opened the main door of the villa together.
Roy followed Serena into the villa.
As soon as he entered the door, Roy saw Irina standing in the middle of the main hall.
“Selena…” Irina began.
When passing Irina, Serena said as she walked by: “I’m going to take a shower first.”
Irina didn’t reply to Selina’s words. She looked at Roy and said, “Come with me.”
Following Irina up the half-moon-shaped staircase to the second floor, Roy pushed open a large solid wooden door, and the luxurious European classical style decoration came into his sight.
“Welcome to my home…”
The huge reception room is decorated extremely luxuriously in a classical European style. The furniture is all made of dark solid wood, and the surrounding pendants are all quite old-fashioned, including a tiger-head stag specimen, famous oil paintings, medieval armor, and a very old-fashioned piano.
At this moment, Roy felt like he had entered an antique museum.
Irina walked to the central sofa and said, “Sit down!”
Roy sat on the sofa.
“any drinks?”
“random……”
Irina clapped her hands twice.
Two maids entered the reception room carrying exquisite trays. On one of the trays was an unopened bottle of XO and three exquisite crystal glasses, and on the other tray was a bucket of ice.
“Go down, everyone get out!”
“Yes!”
The two maids and two bodyguards left the reception room.
“With ice?”
Roy nodded…
Irina personally picked up two pieces of ice for Roy, opened the bottle, poured half a glass for Roy, and then poured half a glass for herself.
Putting down the bottle, Irina and Roy picked up the crystal glasses at the same time.
“Cheers!”
Irina and Roy each took a sip.

Irina looked at Roy and spoke first: “This misunderstanding has been resolved. Those people will not bother you anymore from now on.”
“It’s best…”
“Roy, there are some things and some words that are not convenient to talk about during the day. After all, those people are still in my office. I know you have a lot of questions to ask me. As long as I can tell you, I will try my best to answer you. As for what I can’t tell you, please understand…”
Roy nodded: “I understand.”
“I’m relieved to see Serena is safe and sound. Thank you for not hurting her. I have no other relatives except this one sister, and I don’t want anything to happen to her.”
Roy: “…”
“Uh…I understand. I have a sister too, so I can relate to you.”
“Thank you for understanding me. If you have any questions, please ask.”
After a moment of contemplation, Roy asked, “Given your status, you shouldn’t be treating an ordinary PD… I mean, our relationship…”
“I understand what you mean. I’m sorry it’s not convenient to say this. I can only say that you are very special, very, very special…”
Roy: “…”
It’s like not saying anything.
After taking a sip of the XO-flavored water, Roy continued to ask, “Who do you serve… I mean, what person or organization do you serve?”
Irina didn’t say anything. She picked up the crystal glass and took a sip of wine, took a cigarette from the cigarette box, lit it, took a puff, and slowly exhaled, while pushing the crystal ashtray between the two of them.
“It’s not convenient to say?”
Roy thought: Then let me ask Der!
At this moment, Selena Monica entered the reception room angrily with a pistol in hand…
