Chapter 1720: Chapter 1699: How Could We Forget
Upon arriving in Kiev, the first person Gao Yang t was Number Thirteen.
Number Thirteen was being pushed in a wheelchair, which allowed Gao Yang to see the severe Stockholm Syndro patient, Osa, again.
Osa’s face was shining with happiness, and Gao Yang truly noticed Osa’s radiant glow.
Osa just glanced at Gao Yang and the group of elderly n, nodded as a form of greeting, then leaned down to whisper sothing in Number Thirteen’s ear before turning to leave.
Watching Osa leave, Gao Yang swallowed and then said to Number Thirteen absentmindedly, “You’re living together now?”
Number Thirteen replied with a relaxed expression, “Yeah, staying here to recover is nice. I feel very relaxed, and it feels good.”
Gao Yang exhaled and then whispered, “Are you sure you won’t slit her throat?”
Number Thirteen shook his head, “I’m sure now, but not later. Who knows, one day I might lose it and kill her. It depends on my psychological health.”
Gao Yang said irritably, “She treats you so well, can’t you change your bad habits?”
Number Thirteen shrugged, “What can I do? I’m a pervert.”
Gao Yang was speechless, and Number Thirteen waved with a smile, “Let’s not talk about this. By the ti I recover and rejoin the team, I probably won’t be that much of a psychopath. She won’t die, don’t worry. Alright, let’s go inside; you don’t need to tidy anything up. Nikolai has everything well-organized. Oh, you haven’t introduced those gentlen to yet.”
Gao Yang pointed at Number Thirteen and said to Yakov’s group, “Number Thirteen.”
After that, Gao Yang pointed to Yakov and said, “Yakov, Black Demon.”
After a brief introduction, Gao Yang turned to Yakov and said, “Do you need my people to stay and help?”
Yakov laughed, “No need, it’s unnecessary, and this handso guy here is still injured. Overworking your subordinates is not good.”
Gao Yang turned around and said to Number Thirteen, “Hurry up and get lost, disappear from my sight. I always thought you were staying in our house, never imagined you’d be living with that stupid woman. Then again, if soone wants to seek death, there’s nothing I can do. Call that dumb woman back and have her take you away so I don’t have to.”
Number Thirteen took out his phone and laughed, “You really don’t need ?”
“Don’t need you.”
“Then I’ll leave.”
Number Thirteen rudely made a call, and soon Osa ca back to take him away.
Living day by day, since Number Thirteen said he wouldn’t kill Osa, Gao Yang figured it was better to let them be together.
Standing at the doorway of the Kiev safehouse, after sending off Number Thirteen, Gao Yang turned to Yakov and said, “This is it, our safehouse in Kiev. No one else knows about it, so it should still be safe. We’ll stay here while we’re in Kiev.”
Yakov laughed, “This place looks good, and that young man earlier was very interesting. Plus, you seem quite worried about that red-haired woman.”
Gao Yang said helplessly, “That’s just a psycho killer. I’m worried that he’ll kill that woman, and if she dies, Number Thirteen suffers. F**k! This kind of thing is so damn torturous.”
Yakov said with interest, “You know, I actually have so experience in how to handle a psychopath. Most of my subordinates are psychos. I know how to deal with them.”
Looking at the few old n beside Yakov, Gao Yang nodded, “I can see that. Alright, co on in.”
Gao Yang went to the big iron gate, called out a couple of tis, and Nikolai, who had been staying there, opened the gate to let Gao Yang and his car in.
Returning to the safehouse after not being away for long, Gao Yang felt as if a lot of ti had passed. Surveying the living room, he gestured to Yakov, “Please, have a seat. What would you like for dinner? I’ll prepare it.”
Yakov smiled as he sat on the sofa, looked around, and nodded with a smile, “This place is nice, quiet, and comfortable. I like it here. Everyone, sit down.”
The five people sat down, and after looking around, Gao Yang naturally sat in the single chair next to Yakov.
As he aged, Yakov wore slightly thicker clothes. After checking the ti on his watch, he smiled and said, “It’s 2:30 now. We’ve been on the road for twenty hours. Are you tired?”
All five replied in unison, “Not tired.”
Yakov nodded and smiled, “Youth is wonderful. I feel very tired. Well, since you’re not tired, then get to work and find that…”
Gao Yang whispered from the side, “Kirklin.”
Yakov nodded, “Right, find Kirklin. He shouldn’t have gone far, but if he has, at least figure out where he went. All of you, go.”
The five imdiately stood up again and responded in chorus, “Yes.”
Yakov nodded, then he continued, “After all these 20 years, I have a question. Do you all still rember how to find soone?”
A short, earthy-looking old man, dressed like a farr, cracked a smile, showing a row of white teeth, and chuckled, “Of course, how could I forget?”
Yakov nodded with satisfaction, waved them off, “Go.”
All five turned and left in unison. Yakov turned to Gao Yang and said, “Can’t help it, old age catches up. I wanted to lead them personally, but to not delay the critical mont, I’d better rest a bit. Where’s my room?”
Gao Yang stood up and whispered, “Please follow . Would you like to eat sothing?”
Yakov nodded, “Send dinner to my room. I want potato stew with beef; make sure it’s six-month-old veal, authentic, and cooked until soft. My teeth aren’t great. Keep it bland, too much salt isn’t good. As for the rest, I’m not very picky.”
Yakov went back to his room to sleep, while Gao Yang didn’t do much else that afternoon except search Kiev for six-month-old veal stew for Yakov.
Kiev is still poor, and finding authentic veal that t the requirents wasn’t easy. Finally, Gao Yang managed to find suitable veal at a very high-end hotel and rushed back with it before the stew cooled down at dinnerti.
After finishing dinner, Yakov chatted with Gao Yang for a bit and praised the stew he found. Then he went for a walk in the yard by himself, and around nine o’clock he went back to sleep. Gao Yang waited until after eleven, feeling that nothing would happen that night and that those sent-out Black Demons were unlikely to return, before heading to his room to sleep.
Half-asleep, Gao Yang suddenly heard soone knocking on his door. Always alert, he imdiately sat up and heard Yakov laughing outside his door, “Boss, get up. We have to go out now. That Kirklin has already been found.”
