第13章 恶棍
可以说,在这场较量中,安琪儿大获全胜,看着安德烈的脸色就能看出来,他的脸有多黑,安琪儿就赢得有多么彻底。
“The next project is ready to start.(下一个计划可以开启了。)”
挂了电话,安琪儿侧脸看着爱丽丝,笑道:“What happened?It's for your own safety, and Howard is really nice to you and someone I can trust.The current situation is really not suitable for you to stay here, so you might as well go out and relax.When all the dust settles, even my father can do nothing about it.(怎么了?这样也是为了你们的安全考虑,而且霍华德确实对你很好,也是我信得过的人。目前的局势,对你们来说确实不适合呆在这里了,所以到不如出去散散心。等一切尘埃落定,就算是爸爸也无可奈何。)”
“I'm really worried about you, because you never tell me about the danger.That was the case then, and even more so now.(我真的很担心你,因为你从来都不会把危险告诉我。当年就是这样,现在,更是如此。)”
安琪儿摇摇头,表情骤变,很严肃地看着她:“What do you think you can do if you stay?Stay and die?After all these years, you still don't know me.Andre must be killed now, but I also have a way out.That's why I dare to compete with him face to face.I want you to leave, not just for safety, but also for the flawless plan.Otherwise Andre would not have been fooled.(那你觉得自己留下来又能做什么呢?留下来等死吗?这么多年了,你还是不了解我。安德烈现在一定要除,但我同样也留好了后路。这才是我敢和他面对面分庭抗礼的原因。我希望你离开,不单纯是为了安全,同样也为了这个计划天衣无缝。否则安德烈是不会上当的。)”
她不能告诉爱丽丝她的打算,这是她做了这么多年杀手保留的习惯,哪怕是最熟悉的人,她也要有所保留。爱丽丝点点头,她知道,安琪儿有保留,但同样,她的后路却也是命悬一线。看着安琪儿阴沉的脸色,爱丽丝不再强求。
“I want you to live.(我希望你可以活着。)”
安琪儿一时有些语塞,不知道该说些什么了。或许,是因为她也没有十全的把握吧!
送走他们是第二天,其实这一切早已经安排好了,安琪儿回到基地的时候,安德烈就等在那里,似乎是要和她当面锣对面鼓地掰扯一番。只不过安琪儿却没这个心情,而是漫不经心地问道:“Come in and talk?(进来聊聊?)”
“I don't think you left me for the plan. There must be something else behind it.In your way, there must be a back hand, and it has something to do with me.(我不觉得你是为了计划而留下我,这后面一定还有别的事情。以你的手段,一定会有后手,而且和我有关。)”
安琪儿坐在养父曾经的办公桌上,轻咬右手食指,抬眉看着安德烈的样子,就像是一头野兽。
“What exactly do you want from me?(你究竟想从我这里得到什么?)”
安琪儿依旧只是看着他暴怒、发狂,心情特别好,不过她还是什么都没说,目光却是看着窗外的人们,顿了顿,她见安德烈稍稍平复下来,说道:“If you don't understand something, even if you figure it out one day, it will be too late.I can tell you one thing, that is, half an hour before my father left, some of our top brass were arrested.(想不明白的事情,就算是有一天想明白了,也就晚了。我可以告诉你一件事,那就是在父亲走前半个小时,我们的部分高层被捕了。)”
“What?(什么?)”
安琪儿看着他,问道:“What?Do you feel weird?(怎么?感觉到很奇怪吗?)”
安德烈看着安琪儿的淡定,表情有些狰狞,他想不通,这到底是为什么。安琪儿轻轻摇摇头,似乎是有些无奈,转而说道:“In fact, you don't need to care at all, because you evacuate all their garrison, which leads to the emptiness of the base.In fact, these bases are the most potential threat to the new government itself, and your mistake led to this kind of thing.(其实你根本不需要在意,因为你把他们的驻兵全部撤离了,所以导致了基地空虚。其实这些基地对新政府本身就是最潜在的威胁,而你的失误导致了这种事情的发生。)”
安德烈的表情微微变了变,似乎是被安琪儿的话点中了要害,安琪儿看着他,问道:“What, more than that?I'm going to make you a fiasco. This is just the beginning.(怎么,还要比吗?我一定会让你惨败,这只是开始。)”
安琪儿的语气极其平静,甚至是可以用波澜不惊来形容,可却宛如在安德烈的耳边宛如惊雷炸开。
现在还不到彻底摊牌的时候,安琪儿看着安德烈,轻轻摇了摇头,似乎是对他失望透顶。从办公室离开,出去的时候与安德烈的跟班碰了一下眼神,安琪儿也没有停留,而是直接离开了。
“The civil war is about to begin, and Andre won't let me go.(内战要开始了,安德烈是不会放过我的。)”安琪儿看着外面,微微有些失神。
站在他身后的男子愣了愣,随即却摇摇头,说道:“No matter what the boss says, I will try my best to finish it.By the way, I put the news out, and as you might expect, several of our senior officials were besieged and suppressed by government forces.But I ran a few.(不管老板说什么,我都会尽量去完成。对了,我将消息放了出去,果然如您所料,我们的几个高层人员被政府军围剿了。不过,还是跑了几个。)”
“Don't worry, the rest will be arrested by the local police sooner or later, and this will be my weight to win.(放心吧,剩下的人迟早也会被当地警方抓捕的,而这个也将是我制胜的砝码。)”
“Boss, I don't understand.(老板,我不明白。)”
安琪儿点点头,却是看着外面说道:“Only those of us who were born and raised here will be effective in the evasion of this war.But there are also people who are not from here, or who are determined to follow their boss to the death.And I am the most unlikely target, so who will be next?(像我们这些在这里土生土长的人,才会对这场战争的规避所效力。但这其中也有并非是这里的人,或者誓死追随他们的老板的人。而我却是最不可能的目标,那接下来,会是谁呢?)”
听到安琪儿的话,那人突然就明白了。安琪儿上位,其实从某种程度上来说,就是打乱了安德烈的期望,那势必会让其他人认为,是安德烈恼羞成怒,透露了风声,而安琪儿一旦发难,安德烈势必会是众矢之的。
身后的人想明白这一点,掩藏在黑暗中的身形就动了动,说道:“I'll make arrangements right away.(我立刻着手安排。)”
