Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 1036 Attacked

Time: 1883, December 24th, which is the day that foreigners value Christmas very much.

Location: In the office on the top floor of Deyue Building.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened, and the bright neon lights of Deyue Tower, which were far away, were still gradually lighting up.

Xiao Bai Lian and Yun Qing, who were in the office at that time, drinking tea out of boredom, heard the sound of opening the door next to their ears.

The two of them instinctively followed the sound and looked over.

Even though the two of them have been carrying out missions with Xiaomei in the Magic City for almost half a year, they are already quite familiar with each other.

But when I saw Xiaomei dressed up at this moment, I was still very surprised.

I saw Xiaomei wearing a tight-fitting little dress, which showed off her pretty good figure. She wore a snow-white fox fur shawl, which added a bit of nobility.

Coupled with his delicate face and three-dimensional facial features, the whole person looks quite charming.

Suddenly, the pretty boy started to joke after blowing a whistle:

"Let me tell you, Xiaomei, you are completely denying those old SPs and licking dogs a way to survive. You won't let them go until they are charmed to death tonight."

It would be false to say that Xiaomei was not happy about being praised so much by her teammates.

However, thinking about what happened in the evening, I still didn’t dare to delay any longer. After brushing my hair out of habit, I said:

"Stop being so impatient. Things are very important tonight, so hurry up and get going. It would be rude if you are late."

After hearing this, the pretty girl quickly stood up and prepared to go downstairs with Xiaomei.

Say it! Now that Toushan Manna's Japs have not been found out and the crisis has not been completely resolved, where are they planning to go tonight?

Of course, it was to attend the Christmas dance held in the office building of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau in the Shanghai Concession.

The foreign devils originally attached great importance to the Christmas dance, but tonight all the fair-skinned men with respectability in the Demon City will attend.

After sending the invitation to Xiaomei, in order to make the scene more beautiful in the future, Xiaomei had a reason to go tonight.

What's more, the talks about the Nanyang Rubber Plantation Company's issuance of some stocks in London are almost finished now.

But this is a big business with a total value of 300 million pounds, almost worth 900 million taels of silver; so London also sent a special envoy from the big shots: Lord Martin.

Your Excellency, the Lord, set off from Bombay after receiving the notice, and happened to arrive in the Magic City this morning.

Whether this business can be finalized depends on tonight's interview; so no matter what, Xiaomei will make a trip to Deyuelou's base camp tonight.

As for the pretty boys, they also need to go to the ball to have a date with the ladies, ladies, and ladies on such a special holiday to deepen their relationship.

Because there are so many people, each appointment time must be controlled to five minutes.

Of course, the above so-called date is just the kind where two people talk about love and read a love poem when they are alone.

Otherwise, after one night, the pretty face's hands may be shaking worse than those of a Parkinson's patient.

It is also because of this that when Xiao Bai Lian and Xiao Mei were preparing to leave the office together, Yun Qing still did not forget to say:

"Babyface, as a man, you have to protect Xiaomei~"

"Okay, just relax. This time we brought a group of gunmen out.

In addition, the carriage is a specially made one that cannot be penetrated by ordinary rifle bullets. Therefore, I hope that my grandson can be delivered to my door today. "

Without looking back, the pretty boy said this.

In this way, Xiaomei and Xiaobailian got into a modified Western-style luxury carriage. Under the escort of ten absolutely trustworthy gunmen who were descendants of Shuiwei and others, they headed towards the building of the Ministry of Industry.

Yun Qing was a few minutes late and also left the house.

Tonight, it was time for him and the Qing Gang to share the spoils on January 1st again.

And on the sea outside Shanghai, a cruise ship slowly sailed into the Huangpu River. Standing on the bow of the ship, the imperial concubine looked at the faint lights in the distance, put her hands to her mouth, closed them, and shouted:

"Modu, Deyuelou, I'm back again~"

At such a sentence, some foreigners on the deck were very surprised. They really couldn't understand why such a beautiful and elegant lady suddenly made such a move.

Hu Biao just smiled and lit a cigarette silently.

Because not to mention that the imperial concubine just shouted, even if she wanted to burn the ship, he would only help find a torch.

Of course, if he wants to do this, the imperial concubine will definitely help advise him on where to go so that this thing will burn faster...

Three hours later, Xiaomei faced the old white man in front of her and showed a smile that was brighter than the flowers.

He said: "Dear Mr. Martin, I think we can open a bottle of champagne now and celebrate the formal cooperation."

After hearing this, the old white man who was a little distracted in Xiaomei's smile finally came to his senses.

After touching his nose to cover up his embarrassment, he smiled and said: "Of course, this is a moment worth celebrating~"

On the side, Mr. Andrio, the director of the Ministry of Industry and Industry Bureau who had been sitting with him, also stood up quickly, walked to the door and shouted:

"Someone, hurry up and bring us a bottle of champagne~"

That's right! After more than two hours, Xiaomei had a difficult negotiation with Lord Martin.

In other words, it was a difficult negotiation forced by Xiaomei.

After constant entanglement and compromise with the profit distribution in units of 0.1%, the two parties finally reached a consensus on the issuance of shares of the 'Nanyang Rubber Plantation Company' in London.

In fact, this stock issuance is completely empty-handed, and Xiaomei and Xuan Geying have made a lot of money.

I don't feel bad even if I give up 10% or even more of the profits. It's just to make these foreign devils seem more convinced that I have been biting the profit distribution thing.

An agreement was finally reached, and both parties were in a pretty good mood after thinking about the huge profits that would follow.

For a time, the atmosphere became even more lively after the small talk.

That's why they didn't notice the waiter who came in with champagne and glasses, opened the champagne and poured wine into the glasses behind their backs.

Also pouring some pink powder into one of the cups.

I don’t know what those pink powders were, but they completely melted into them very quickly.

Then, a total of three glasses of champagne were brought over, and the one with pink powder was placed in front of Xiaomei.

Xiaomei, who was not aware of it at all, straightly picked up the wine glass and suggested to the other two people:

"Gentlemen, I wish us happy cooperation~"

With the sound of "ding dong~", the three wine glasses were knocked together. With the other two sounds of "happy cooperation", the three of them drank the champagne in the glasses.

At the same time, the pretty boy who had been flirting with a certain woman for a few minutes appeared in the dance hall outside the door smelling of perfume.

I was just about to sit down and drink some wine to moisten my throat, which was a little angry because of talking too much tonight.

As a result, at this moment, a certain waiter passed by him and quickly handed him a note towards the pretty boy.

He opened the note secretly and took a look inside.

The pretty boy can notice that it says in beautiful cursive letters: "In the women's bathroom on the left side of the first floor, in the third compartment, your sweetheart Mai Rui is waiting for you~"

Should he say it or not, such an unexpected note immediately reminded the pretty boy of a beautiful memory of himself in the bar in the modern world.

In my heart, I was inexplicably agitated.

More importantly, Merique is the favorite daughter of Mr. Andrio, the director of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau; she played a very important role in this financial plan.

It is a relationship that must be maintained in the near future.

For a time, no matter what the purpose was, it was difficult for him to refuse.

But before taking action, the pretty boy quickly glanced at the room where Xiaomei and the others were currently negotiating. After confirming that Xiaomei was still inside, he walked to the women's bathroom on the left side of the first floor.

After all, in his opinion, Xiaomei's side didn't negotiate well.

What could happen if I disappear temporarily for a while? Even if Xiaomei came out during this period of time, Gaolu would still have to dance with a group of old SPs and licking dogs as a courtesy.

With Xiaomei's amazing number of licking dogs, even if the key licking dogs were selected to dance a song each to maintain the passion in these licking dogs' hearts, it would still take two hours to complete.

So, there is no need to worry about making mistakes.

Then, after confirming that no one was in the women's bathroom, the guy quickly rushed in and entered the third compartment with the door ajar.

A minute later, he stuffed a piece of lace cloth into the mouth of the white-flowered pony...

*******

Three minutes later, Xiaomei, who had just danced on the dance floor at the invitation of Lord Martin, felt something bad.

It felt like my whole body was hot and burning from the inside out, and I had a strange feeling that I had never felt so full that I was about to leak out.

What's even more strange is that she can't help but think of a certain old man who she should never think of.

Even Lord Martin, the bad old man in front of her, looked a little more handsome to her; it could be said that such a strange feeling was something she had never experienced before.

There is even a strong feeling that he is 'committing evil'.

In fact, if she were to meet her cousin the imperial concubine in such a situation, she would immediately understand: Not good! He was drugged, and it was the legendary chun drug.

From this, I thought that I was afraid that I had fallen into a conspiracy.

It's not that the imperial concubine has been tricked, but that on her first day working as a model or catwalk, her agent repeatedly told her: a little

If you go to a place like a bar or dance club alone, don't drink randomly and don't let the wine glass out of your sight; because some men with pubic hair like to do this kind of thing.

However, Xiaomei also knows that in her current state, she is really not suitable to stay here anymore.

After hurriedly dancing to a song, he covered his forehead and said to the crowd of old SPs and licking dogs who were eager to invite him and dance to the song:

"Sorry gentlemen, I may have caught a cold last night and feel very uncomfortable now.

So I’m sorry, I have to go back and rest now~”

When the old SPs and licking dogs saw this, although they were a little disappointed in their hearts, they all expressed their gentleness and told Xiaomei to go back and rest quickly.

Even James and other licking dogs volunteered to send Xiaomei back.

However, Xiaomei rejected all such good intentions; because there was a vague thought in her heart that frightened herself:

In the carriage, tackle the men.

Before leaving, Xiaomei still remembered Xiaobailian as a teammate and wanted to ask him to go with him, which would be safer.

However, after pulling over a waiter and asking, but the other person didn't know where the pretty boy had gone, he had no choice but to leave first amid the increasingly strong strange feeling.

Then, under the escort of a group of gunmen, he sat in a carriage and began to return to his home base of Deyuelou.

It can be said that after encountering danger, human beings want to return to their familiar home. Such an instinct kicks in.

After getting in the car, she instinctively activated her internal energy. She suddenly felt the heat in her whole body and felt relieved.

Unfortunately, once the internal energy movement stopped, that hot feeling reappeared again.

Seven minutes after Xiaomei left, a cheerful face appeared in the dance hall whistling.

But after seeing that Lord Martin and others had come out, Xiaomei was nowhere to be seen. When asked, Xiaomei said she was not feeling well and had already left for a while.

Instinctively, I felt that the situation was not good, and I was immediately ready to say goodbye and catch up.

But at this moment, an explosion sounded from afar.

The pretty boy immediately knew that the worst situation had happened. He immediately rushed out, grabbed a war horse, and rushed towards the direction of the explosion.

But during this process, more explosions were heard in many places in the city.

Suddenly, Xiao Bailian's face turned pale, because he did not expect Tou Shanman to be so crazy; more importantly, by the time he rushed over, it would be a little too late...

Indeed, at the speed at which the pretty boy was galloping, it would only take three to five minutes to catch up with Xiao Mei's motorcade. The problem was that by then it would be too late.

At that time, Xiaomei was working on her inner strength and suppressing her physical discomfort.

Suddenly, there was a huge explosion, and she felt that the carriage she was in was lifted up, rolled over and hit the ground heavily. At the same time, her head also hit the strongly deformed carriage.

Suddenly, the internal energy running in the body was in chaos, and he spit out a mouthful of blood, which showed serious internal injuries.

However, what is more serious in comparison is that the hot feeling in the body suddenly became stronger after losing the suppression of internal force.

This girl was so unspeakably agitated that her head was a little confused.

In this confusion, she saw one of her gunmen with blood on his head opened the carriage door and dragged her out of the carriage.

Then, she could see flesh and blood all around. The horse and six gunmen were already lying in a pool of blood.

It is estimated that during their return, the other party suddenly threw a powerful bomb, which caused such powerful damage.

Two of the remaining four gunmen were lying on the ground, firing continuously with pistols.

There were seven or eight of their opponents, and they also used pistols in their hands to shoot at each other. They had an overwhelming advantage in firepower.

The remaining two gunmen, while guarding her, helped her rush towards a small western-style building nearby, apparently intending to hide in it and hold on.

Waiting for support from people in the patrol room, or from our own personnel.

Unfortunately, after taking only two or three steps, the gunman who was supporting her on the left suddenly started to tremble.

After shouting "Miss Mina, run", he fell to the ground; at this time, you can see an extra bullet hole in his vest and heart.

These gunmen don't usually have much dealings with Xiaomei, but one of them is a disciple of the Xuan Ge camp.

Now that she was risking her life to protect herself, Xiaomei's heart ached so much that it was bleeding.

He bit his lip hard and used the instant pain to wake himself up. At the same time, he pulled out a pistol from the holster on his thigh and turned on the safety.

While being supported, he continued to retreat with staggering steps, while pulling the trigger backwards.

Regrettably, at this distance, it can be said that his shooting skills are very reliable, but in his current poor physical condition, he failed to hit a single target after firing several shots.

About ten seconds later, Xiaomei was pushed hard into the gate of the small building on the roadside by the gunman who supported her.

Then the gunman blocked the door and fired.

In the blink of an eye, he had used up all the bullets in a revolver in his hand. Just as he was busy loading bullets into the magazine, he suddenly raised his head and fell down.

There is also an extra bullet hole on his forehead.

At this point, the gunfire outside the door also completely stopped, and it seems that all the gunmen under his command have been killed.

Only a minute or two had passed from the sudden attack to the present; in the distance, there was a faint sound of explosions.

It is estimated that these mysterious attackers are using this method to mislead and delay the people patrolling the room.

What's even worse is that a sentence in the island's Mandarin is faintly heard: "Pay attention, don't shoot indiscriminately, Lord Toushan told us to capture them alive~"

In a word, Xiaomei's little sense now left told her:

It was really an ambush by the little devil, but it was a pity that no one came to save her.

After thinking about this, she turned the muzzle of the gun and put it against her forehead: because she knew that she could never survive these little devils and bring greater trouble to the team...
