American Comics: BOSS Invasion
#39 - Halve the interval
Tom's Bar.
Tom sat behind the bar, calculating the losses the bar had sustained after yesterday's fight.
Although the facade was a bit of a mess, he was still insisting on staying open, but the neon lights outside had been blown out, and the sign was no longer very eye-catching.
If it were normal times, the bar should be bustling at this hour, but it seemed that the battlefield-like bar had scared away most people.
Knock, knock.
Two knocks on the door, Tom glanced up, didn't say anything, and continued with what he was doing.
Laurie, who had knocked on the door, was a little embarrassed, shrugged, and walked in.
He sat across from Tom and put a six-pack of beer on the bar.
"Uh... I brought you some drinks."
"This is a bar, Laurie!" Tom said blandly, "Your excuse sucks, just say what's on your mind, this isn't like you."
Laurie laughed awkwardly, "I just felt a little sorry for you."
"So, you've decided to tell me the truth about what happened?"
Tom glanced at him and said, "Don't tell me you didn't find anything out all afternoon!"
"...Okay."
Laurie sighed and said, "This is embarrassing to talk about. You remember Sarah, right?"
"The big-breasted woman? The one you've been chasing after lately?"
"Don't put it so bluntly. Okay, okay, I really like her, but so what? It's just normal lust."
"I don't want to hear about your lust life, Laurie," Tom said, emphasizing his tone.
"Don't worry, I'm getting to the point."
Laurie rubbed his thighs and said, "You know she was promoted from a small-town cop to a homicide detective in Naxino City.
So she's always been trying to build relationships with her colleagues. Tim and those bastards set their sights on her..."
"Laurie, the point!"
"Okay, here it comes," Laurie sped up his speech: "Tim asked her for a favor, to catch a drug-dealing addict, and Sarah did it.
Under normal circumstances, you just have to take the prisoner to the police station.
It just so happened that her daughter called her that day and asked her to come to the bar to find me.
So Sarah took the prisoner into the bar, which wouldn't have been a problem.
The problem was that the addict wasn't carrying sensitive drugs, but a bag of uncut diamonds, worth about 10 million US dollars.
And this addict was a mule for the Jamaican gang, and Tim and the others wanted to double-cross them, but they dragged Sarah into it.
Sarah changed her itinerary midway, and Tim and the others thought the uncut diamonds had been exposed, so they called the Jamaican gang. Later..."
"So now the Jamaican gang thinks Sarah stole the uncut diamonds?"
Laurie whispered, "It would be good if that were the case, they think you hired Sarah!"
Tom's eyes widened: "Why would it be me?"
"Because you're a arms dealer!"
"So they think I'm looking for trouble?"
Laurie shrank his neck: "Otherwise they wouldn't have launched a surprise attack at dawn! They thought you were clearing out the competition."
"These guys are also in the arms business? No wonder they have Gatling heavy machine guns. Laurie!!"
Tom roared, and Laurie quickly raised his hands, saying repeatedly: "Hey, buddy, relax, it's not a big deal, just another bunch of clueless arms dealers and smugglers, you..."
Tom slapped his forehead: "Now there's no way to explain it."
"Tim and his gang have been giving me trouble these past two days, they want to know Sarah's whereabouts. I hid her in a safe place, and called the deputy director to take a long vacation. But don't worry, Tim and the others can't do anything to me!"
"So, the Jamaican gang is my problem now?"
"Tom, please help, Sarah was framed."
Tom glanced at him. "As if I wasn't!"
Laurie said: "Why not ask Mike for help, there are rumors that he seems to have hooked up with a secret department recently."
"What secret department?"
"I don't know! I only know that they seem to have a lot of authority," Laurie shrugged.
Tom: "That's as good as saying nothing."
He pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Don't tell Mike about this for now, he has helped us a lot. Let's try to solve it ourselves first, if it doesn't work..."
"I know!" Laurie nodded: "But you don't have to worry, the bureau has recently issued a red alert, and all 11,000 police officers in the city must be on duty unless there are special circumstances.
Under these circumstances, the Jamaican gang wouldn't dare to mess around, you can have some time to prepare."
Tom rolled his eyes: "That's the only good news tonight."
"That's still good news, isn't it?"
Laurie took out two bottles of beer, opened them separately, and handed one to Tom.
Tom shook his head, took the beer, lightly clinked it with Laurie's, and said: "Keep an eye on Tim, they won't give up the 10 million US dollar uncut diamonds easily."
"I know."
Qi Shan was completely unaware of the trouble at Tom's Bar.
He spent the whole afternoon with Tomie moving.
He originally thought there wasn't much to take, just a few clothes, toothpaste, and a toothbrush.
Anyway, the villa has everything.
Unexpectedly, Tomie's clothes filled five or six boxes, and Qi Shan didn't know when she bought them.
Or rather, when she asked others for them.
With Tomie's power, Qi Shan had no doubt that she had the ability to do so.
After finishing this matter, it was already dark, they found a nearby Chinese restaurant, ate a sugary Chinese meal, and the two returned to the villa.
Tomie was busy tidying up the room, gathering her spoils.
Qi Shan took the magic-related materials and went to the basement.
This was actually a common space for a garage and a storage room.
It wasn't partitioned, and the area was very large.
Qi Shan was precisely interested in this.
After a simple tidying up, he enlarged the magic book in his pocket and placed it on the table.
He poured himself a cup of coffee, sat on the sofa, and quietly waited for midnight to arrive.
As the hands coincided at 12 o'clock, the smoke font appeared as scheduled.
[The fourth invasion will arrive in three days]
Qi Shan's eyelids twitched.
It turns out that the effect of the unfinished task is to double the speed of the invasion.
This was expected.
This is equivalent to doubling the number of invaders.
That is to say, as long as the task remains unfinished, the time will continue to shorten.
And after shortening to the limit, the number of invaders will increase.
And his only reliance is the task reward.
Qi Shan reached out and tapped his temple, the chaotic future is imaginable.
