Chapter 702: The confrontation off the battlefield

Lewis was silent for a while, then looked at Lin Rui and said, "Is this what you meant, or the meaning of Silver Wolf?"
"What I mean is also the meaning of Silver Wolf, but also the meaning of Black Island Military Company." Lin Rui replied, "Is there a difference?"
"It's the first time I've seen a mercenary who dared to threaten me like this in so many years." Lewis said slowly, "You know, walking toward Fifth Avenue on 42nd Street in New York, you can come across a lot of clothing At the time, beautifully dressed girls stand at the intersection and greet you, hoping you will take care of their business.
In my opinion, you mercenaries are no different from those girls. The same lowliness I want to know what gives you the courage to threaten someone like me? "
"It is undeniable that you used to be a senior official of the Strategic Command, and now you are the head of the management committee, at least on the surface. So you think you are great and you think you can play with us. But you are wrong. , We are not necessarily afraid of you. At a high position, there will always be more worries, because you get too much to worry about losing. And we are just a group of desperadoes who sell their lives for money, we have nothing to lose.
Just like you laugh at those girls who sell their bodies on the street, they may be lowly, but you who patronize them and then laugh at them in turn, I can only give you two words shameless. If you are brave enough, try not to revoke our punishment and see what effect it will have. "Lin Rui said coldly.
"Why didn't I kill you and directly relieve the troubles?" Lewis looked at Lin Rui.
"You dare not do this, because this is a bet that you can't afford to lose. Besides, even if you kill me, you can't stop what I said. You don't know where the evidence is. As long as I have an accident, they will be quick It will come to light in the world. Soon you will be investigated. The forces behind you will not save you, but will only be busy to get rid of yourself." Lin Rui said slowly.
"How can I believe that the so-called evidence is in your hands?" Lewis sneered.
"I understand your doubts, but maybe this thing can strengthen your mind." Lin Rui pushed a mahogany box on the table towards Lewis. This is a box for cigars.
Lewis frowned, "I don't smoke."
"I didn't give you a cigarette, why didn't you open it and take a look." Lin Rui shrugged.
Lewis opened the box suspiciously, only to find that there was a sealed glass test tube with some unknown liquid in the test tube. As soon as Lewis saw the label above, the muscles in his face instantly stiffened.
"Be careful. If this thing breaks, it won't do you any good." Lin Rui shrugged. "You should have seen this thing when you were in charge of the virus weapon experiment, right?"
"You bastard, what do you want to do? Why do you keep this thing, are you crazy?" Lewis closed the box with a sullen expression and carefully put it back on the table.
"Look, this is the difference between us. You are used to being pampered. So the reaction after seeing danger is completely different from those of us who are rolling around in the dead pile all day. I show you this thing, yes Because I want to tell you that even if it is a virus, as long as it is sealed, it is safe.
As long as you cooperate with our Black Island Company, your evidence will never be seen, just like this closed virus. But if you reach out to grab it, the test tube containing the virus will break, and then it will be a mess. You know the result. "Lin Rui shrugged.
Lewis was silent, and he found himself encountering a truly difficult character today. Lin Rui in front of him didn't care who he was or his life or death. Lin Rui didn't care about anything anymore. In his words, he didn't have anything. What else could he care about? Such people are precisely the most dangerous, because their indifferent means that they are out of control and unruly.
Lewis looked at Lin Rui and said slowly, "What if I helped you this time and you didn't keep your promise?"
"We will not fail to keep our promises, because a head of the management committee who maintains a good relationship with us is a great thing for us. Since it is a great thing, why should we target you?" Lin Rui shrugged.
"Ha, I really underestimated you, the young people now are terrible. Do you still want to use those evidences to coerce me for a long time?" Lewis gritted his teeth and sneered.
"It is to maintain a friendly relationship for a long time." Lin Rui shrugged, "Of course I know that this can't win real friendship. But I also know that in the eyes of people like you, there are never real friends, only real benefits." Spread his hand, "What do you think?"
Lewis sat in front of Lin Rui for five minutes, watching every change in Lin Rui's expression. Finally he nodded, "You won this round. It's not easy for young people. Mind if I ask your name?"
"Lin Rui. But some Americans like to call me Ricklin. I don't have any comments." Lin Rui shrugged.
"Lin Rui, Lin Rui?" Lewis frowned slightly, "Some time ago, the winner of the Waynes contest?"
Lin Rui nodded, "It's me."
Lewis took a deep look at him, "Okay, the people from the Black Island Company are really not waiting." After that, he turned and left the chair, pushed open the office door, and strode out.
Lin Rui leaned back in his chair and took a deep breath. He knew he was right. He had no evidence of Lewis betraying intelligence at all. Only in the virus laboratory, I heard Schmeed talk about some connections between Lewis and this matter. With no retreat, he decided to take a risk.
The bet was that Lewis didn't dare to turn his face with him, and the test tube containing the virus deepened Lewis' fear at a critical moment. He was right that Lewis, who was in a completely dominant position, would not be willing to lose both to Black Island. Therefore, the additional penalties imposed by the Management Committee on the Black Island Military Company will definitely be cancelled.
Lin Rui finally let go of the boulder in his heart, and his whole body became exhausted.
Michelle Silver Wolf walked in and applauded Lin Rui Xiaosheng, "I never thought that you could actually make Lewis soft. Lin Rui, well done. If I say these things, he certainly may not believe it. You handle things. I was impressed by his adaptability."
"In fact, it's just because of Lewis's caution." Lin Rui sighed, "He lacks understanding of me, so he dare not take risks. If you say this, he may not be willing to buy it. This has nothing to do with ability. It’s just that he refuses to deny his judgment. In his eyes, I’m just a kid who doesn’t know the heights of the sky. So in his subconscious he thinks I can’t fool him. The more so, I will be fooled.

Lin Rui sighed, he was too tired. The confrontation outside the battlefield is simply more exhausting than the actual combat. Because you have to pay attention to each other all the time, and you have to pay attention to your own words, actions and emotions all the time.
