After Being In Prison For Five Years, I Mastered Every Nefarious Ability - Chapter 12
At this moment, Li Zhuo actually thought that he was hearing things.
“What did you say just now?”
“Investigate what exactly did Putnam bring to the S District Task Force Team Leader,” Armstrong repeated.
Li Zhuo was once again speechless.
“What kind of lousy action team is this?!”
“Why is there such a strange team, and why can you repeat it word for word?!”
“Is this really something you just made up?!” Li Zhuo said in shock.
“Calm down, buddy,” Armstrong hugged Li Zhuo and said with a smile. “Look, a dangerous guy like Putnam, we definitely can’t let him go, right? This concerns the safety of all of us.”
“No, don’t count me in,” Henry said as he adjusted his glasses.
The others could not help but look at him, and then looked at Li Zhuo again.
“Indeed, that guy can’t be counted in. With Henry’s poison-making skills, we can totally poison Putnam before he does anything.”
Armstrong nodded seriously and analyzed.
After Henry left the restaurant, there was instantly one person less in the Investigate what exactly did Putnam bring to the S District Task Force.
“However, even if there are only the five of us…”
“Don’t count me,” Alan said indifferently.
The others could not help but look at him, and then looked back at Li Zhuo.
“Indeed, this guy can’t be counted. Not to mention that Alan’s physique is not much worse than Putnam’s, even if Putnam really hid some dangerous goods, Alan is confident that he can steal them.”
Armstrong nodded his head and analyzed seriously once again.
After Alan left the restaurant, the Investigate what exactly did Putnam bring to the S District Task Force once again lost another member.
“Although there are only four people left in our action team, we can still…”
“I don’t plan to join either,” Carl, who was wearing a mask, said in a low voice.
The others could not help but look at him, and then looked at Li Zhuo again.
Then, they were all stunned.
“Hey, hey, hey, wait, you can’t possibly have the ability to protect yourself as a hacker, right? There’s no reason for you not to contribute to the task force!”
Armstrong finally reacted and stared at Carl.
However, Carl revealed a wicked smile. “I knew Putnam before I went to prison. I even helped that guy a little. He won’t do anything to me.”
Armstrong was slightly stunned. “You’ve known him before? Why haven’t I heard you mention him before?”
“You haven’t asked either.”
“…” Armstrong fell silent.
Carl patted Armstrong on the shoulder and left the restaurant.
The Investigate what exactly did Putnam bring to the S District Task Force had not been officially established yet, and the number of reservations had already been reduced by half.
The next second, Armstrong took the initiative to look at Alsop with an ominous premonition.
“That’s right. You guessed it right. Don’t count me in,” Alsop said with a smile while stroking her long wine-red hair.
“Why?!” Armstrong was completely dumbfounded. He did not expect Alop to be unwilling to join them, let alone the others.
“No reason. I don’t think Putnam will do anything to us.” Alsop yawned and rolled her eyes at Armstrong. “If I have to give another reason, I think the name of this action group is too stupid. I really don’t want to join.”
After saying that, Alsop twisted her slender waist and left the restaurant.
All of a sudden, only Li Zhuo and Armstrong were left in the restaurant.
Armstrong looked at Li Zhuo silently, and Li Zhuo also looked at Armstrong silently.
After a moment, Li Zhuo raised his hand and started to speak awkwardly.
“That… I also…”
“No!!” Armstrong took the chance to say it before Li Zhuo finished.
“Why?” Li Zhuo said unwillingly.
If the others could quit, why could he not quit?
At this time, Armstrong showed a bitter expression. “You really can’t leave me anymore. I don’t know anything except gambling. If you abandon me, I’m dead!”
“Well, I don’t think that he’ll kill you, right? Maybe you’re thinking too much?” Li Zhuo felt that Armstrong’s words were too serious.
“What if? What if that guy really wants to kill me? How can I, a gambler, be a killer?” Armstrong said with a bitter face. He looked terrible as if his own father had passed away.
“Even if I join this investigation task force…”
“It’s the Investigate what exactly did Putnam bring to the S District Task Force,” Armstrong corrected seriously.
“…”
You still have the mood to pay attention to this at this time!!
Li Zhuo suddenly felt very tired. Was this guy with a ponytail really a world-class gambling expert?
Was he really not an idiot?!
“In short, please help me. If you don’t help me, I won’t be able to sleep every night!”
“If I can’t sleep, my skin will become very bad!!”
“So the focus is on my skin!!”
Li Zhuo was completely shocked.
“Skin is very important!! If I don’t have particularly good skin, I can’t go on a killing spree at the gambling table!!”
“So you rely on your skin to go on a killing spree at the gambling table!!” Li Zhuo covered his face helplessly. He felt so tired.
This guy across from him must be an idiot. He must be…
“Please help me. Only your observational skills can investigate what exactly Putnam brought to Section S.”
“Let me repeat myself. It’s memory, not observational skills.” Li Zhuo raised a finger and corrected him seriously.
“Whatever. Only you can help me now. I’m really useless except for gambling. I really can’t live without you.” Armstrong was about to cry if he continued.
However, Li Zhuo was still a little hesitant. After all, he did not know how to investigate this matter.
However, Armstrong seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly raised a finger and spoke seriously. “As long as you help, I will pay you one million.”
“…” Li Zhuo glanced at Armstrong in front of him, and his expression became serious.
He slowly raised a hand.
“Five million.”
“Deal!”
“F*ck, I think I sold myself short.” Li Zhuo was slightly stunned. He did not expect Armstrong to agree so readily.
From Armstrong’s straightforward agreement without any psychological burden, it seemed that he could have asked for more.
“Alright, five million then. Half in advance, half afterwards.”
“Oh right, and the bet at the beach today. You have to pay me three and a half million now.”
Li Zhuo calculated meticulously. This money might help him break out of prison one day and hide outside for the rest of his life.
“No problem!”
The two men looked at each other and revealed a smile between comrades..
