Awakening Chapter 211.3

Two hundred nautical miles off the coast of Boston, two medium-sized ocean-going ferryboats was taking advantage of the night to quietly leave the United States.

Each of the two ferries only has a Captain, a chief officer, eight shipping workers and four lifeboats. For a conventional medium-sized ocean-going ferryboat, this was far from the minimum security standard. But a smuggler vessel like this did not need to consider this factor. After all, for smugglers, the illegal immigrants in the cabin brought more trouble than good.

But these usually fierce smugglers did not dare to do anything to those sitting and drinking in the cabin. For fear that they would fail to serve these mysterious men.

In the Captain’s room, a man in his forties is now very depressed and filled with regret.

Last week when he talked about the price to the man, he was so happy that he almost died on the spot. He never imagined that smuggling ship out of the United States could get such a big deal. And the other party later said that they will increase the price, but he must add another ship. So he immediately contacted another smuggler.

However, at the agreed place and time, he never thought that the passenger would be a terrifying group of heavily armed masked men.

The head smuggler wanted to vomit blood in regret but dared not refuse them on board. Because he could not imagine the consequences of refusing them. His acquaintance was also scared and could not wait to come and kill him. But what can he do? He just hoped that these people would do nothing to him.

In the cabin’s reception room, there were more than ten men in business suits or casual wear sitting in it. Six people’s age between 40 and 60. The rest were young people about the same age as Rei Li.

Rei Li put his face mask down and said: “Everybody should have been very clear about our current situation. I can say that now the Black Dragon is in its most difficult period. But as long as we can safely leave the United States, with our accumulated funds and connections, it is not difficult to stage a comeback. We have only lost the United States territory.”

A 50-something, gray-haired man stood up and said: “You are the leader of the Black Dragon, of course we will implement your orders, even the incitement project in various cities. But our losses are too great. Until now I still do not understand why the United States want to f*ck the Black Dragon. I hope you can give us a reasonable explanation.”

Rei Li solemnly said: “Uncle Jian, you should know that three years ago there was an organization that wanted to swallow the Black Dragon, right?”

The man frowned and said: “Of course I remember this incident, those sons’ of turtles blew up several of our divisions, my division in California was destroyed by them. Don’t tell me that those people are military?”

Rei Li somewhat helplessly said: “Yes, you guessed it right, the military is indeed behind the research organization. In order to raise the research fund, they wanted to swallow the Black Dragon. At that time, we even fought directly against a bunch of them.”

A man in his thirty with a deep scar on his left cheek said, “Why did you not mention this in the report that you gave us?”

Chang’an, who has been silent all this time, coldly said: “Liu Yun, please watch your tone, do not forget who you are talking to.”

Liu Yun gave Chang’an a glance and resentfully stopped talking.

Rei Li smoothed things out by saying: “Uncle Yun, please do not misunderstand. In fact, I knew nothing about this some time ago. If I knew the military is targeting us, I would’ve withdraw from the United States three years ago, and will not wait until now.”

Since Rei Li gave him a step and the explanation was very reasonable, Liu Yun’s face softened.

A middle-aged man dressed in casual wear lit a cigarette and then said: “This time we’ve made such a big disturbance, they won’t let us. Even though you can leave the United States, future troubles are certainly not going to be less. I don’t know what do you plan to do with that?”

Rei Li said: “After knowing that the opponent are the military, me and Chang’an laid down this plan. We want to stir up riots in various states to distract the military’s attention and then storm into their experimental base. My ultimate goal is to get the evidence and information regarding those shady experiments. With these things, we should be able to give them fear, on the other hand, it will also let us take advantage of the chaos to leave the United States.”

“Are those information important enough to make them stop?” The eyes of an old fat man, who wore a traditional clothing, revealed a suspicious look.

“It’s hard to say, but the information is certainly very important. They will probably get us into trouble in the future. But they should only do it in secret and not as blatant as regarding us as a terrorist organization. Therefore, you guys need to be careful in the future.”

The others said no more, each revealing a thoughtful expression.

Seeing that the crowd did not make any sound, Rei Li turned around and asked the 30-something young man, “Have you safely evacuated your people?”

That man answered: “Yes, boss. After the riots, I have arranged them to leave by cars, they should reach Montreal tomorrow.”

After asking several other people, the ten men finally left the room.

After they left, Lei Yin came out from the nearby small door.

He mused: “So many years I haven’t seen them, they are a lot older now. I still remember when they were young.”

Rei Li said: “Master, are you really not going to talk to uncle Shu and the others?”

Lei Yin shook his head: “No need, for them, I am just a dead man, now they are not Yan Yuxiao’s men anymore.”

After being silent for a moment, he then said: “If they are too much trouble, just let them retire and send them back.”

Rei Li quickly said: “Master, I don’t have the means.”

Lei Yin waved his hand and said: “They’re troublesome old men because they want to flaunt their seniority. The so-called the young court councilor needs to look up, you should know about this truth. Now you are in charge of the Black Dragon, you should try to nurture your own trusted right-hand men rather than defer to old sentiment and lower your own prestige. For me, managing a gang is no different than running a company. A clear business system must not rely on bloodline or human emotion to win over the people in the company for a long time. I have said what I should have said, you think about it.”

Rei Li found that when his master said those words, there was an indescribable frustration in it.

Chang’an’ eyes became somewhat bleak, only he can clearly understand how Lei Yin felt. When that group of people changed, it means that their era has completely ended.

Although, if his excellency wants it, he can gallop again in the rivers and lakes, but the people who follow him will no longer be those people.

Those people are old, and about to die.
