Chapter 2314: Unreasonable Unease
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ye Jian, who came down from upstairs, was led by J5 into the basement built in the small building. After passing through a short dark underground passage, she turned a corner and saw a snow-white light in front of her. It was a little like the illusion of hell leading to the entrance to heaven.
Compared to the darkness of the small building, the basement where the guns were placed was so white that it was a little blinding.
Ye Jian saw the shopkeeper. He was a middle-aged man with a dismembered right leg. His pants where his dismembered leg was was knotted up.
Although the middle-aged man’s body was disabled, he had a pair of hawk-like eyes. When his gaze swept over, it brought an inexplicable sense of gloom.
“Six submachine guns and six handguns with three magazines each. As for the number… you guys count it yourself… Tell me when you come out. Try the gun room next door, but there’s not much ammo… Us the bullets sparingly,” the owner with the damaged vocal cords said slowly, then he limped away again on his cane.
!!
When he passed by Ye Jian, he suddenly turned around. Ye Jian noticed his gaze and immediately turned around.
He didn’t expect to be caught by Ye Jian the moment he turned around. After being stunned for a moment, he looked into Ye Jian’s eyes as a strange color flashed across his gaze. “You’re very beautiful.”
There was no offense and no teasing. His low husky voice was a little sad, as though he was reminiscing.
For a moment, Ye Jian didn’t know how to answer. In the end, she nodded at him. “Thank you.”
“He had a daughter. When she was 10 years old, she was burned to ashes by artillery fire.” J5 handed Ye Jian a beautiful submachine gun. “Before his daughter was blown up, he had almost four thousand troops. After his daughter was blown up, he disbanded the 4,000 soldiers and went alone to take revenge on Relira. Unfortunately, he didn’t get his revenge. Instead, he lost a leg. After he recovered, he became the largest arms dealer in this area. He’s a man of his word.”
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have brought Qin Xiu here to settle down.
The man didn’t seem to understand English. When he saw Ye Jian take the gun and pull the trigger with familiar movements, he nodded very lightly as if to express his admiration.
日岛Ye Jian didn’t look at him again. She raised the gun with both hands to check if it was okay. When she raised her hand, the silver wire wrapped around her wrist flashed silver in the snow-white light. Behind her, the man who didn’t leave said, “It’s best not to show the silver wire in your hand in this country and Japan.”
Ye Jian, who did not understand the language, realized that the man who did not leave was talking to her. She looked at J5, who had been communicating with him in the language.
J5 was looking at the silver wire in Ye Jian’s hand. He had always thought that this was Ye Jian’s favorite silver accessory. He didn’t expect it to be… a self-defense weapon. Seeing that Ye Jian was questioning him with her eyes, he pointed at the silver wire on her wrist. “He said that the silver wire on your wrist shouldn’t be exposed in Lin Country and Sun Island.”
Shocked, Ye Jian turned around and looked at him with dark eyes. “You know its origin?”
J5 translated, and the man nodded. His lips, which were a little dark from years of smoking, moved slowly. “I do. It’s very powerful. I see that you have it. Very good.” This time, he didn’t speak the country’s language again. He answered word by word in clumsy Chinese. “It’s best if we don’t show our faces here. It’s not good.”
Captain Xia had tried to find out where the silver wire had come from, but nothing had come of it. After a few years, they hadn’t expected an unassuming arms dealer to recognize it immediately.
While Ye Jian was shocked, she also became vigilant.
