512: Chapter 500 Presence 512: Chapter 500 Presence Ben had thought it would be hellishly difficult, but it turned out to be easy.
Although there was no walkthrough, the ga started with him being taken to the final level and instantly killing the big boss.
Happiness ca too suddenly, leaving Yang Yi with a persistent feeling that what was happening was unreal.
A trap?
A conspiracy?
A whimsical joke?
Was McDonald Quinn pretending to agree because he felt danger and then planning to take the chance to escape?
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Yang Yi’s mind.
McDonald Quinn was not playing by the script Yang Yi had envisioned, but he couldn’t very well suggest they do it all over again.
“Mr.
Quinn, won’t you reconsider?”
“Reconsider what?”
Yang Yi swallowed and then quickly shook his head, “Nothing, so when can you co with us?”
“Now, if you’re in a hurry.”
McDonald Quinn even stood up.
Yang Yi got up sowhat distractedly, ashad of his own performance.
After all, he wasn’t experienced enough.
All his contingency plans were based on things going awry, but now that things were going too smoothly, he didn’t know what to do.
Actually, Yang Yi had never expected McDonald Quinn to agree, so he had prepared to kidnap him.
Seeing Yang Yi standing there, McDonald Quinn suddenly said, “I understand now.”
“What?”
McDonald Quinn sat down again and then, with a smile, said, “Let’s do it over.
What did you just ask ?”
“Uh, are you willing to help us…”
“No!”
After McDonald Quinn emphatically finished speaking, he shook his head continuously, “I’m not willing.
I’m not going anywhere.
I’m retired.
I intend to die peacefully in this beautiful place with good weather, so no matter what you’re asking to do, I have only one answer, no!”
Yang Yi was stunned for a mont, then he smiled, “Stop joking, Mr.
Quinn.”
McDonald Quinn waved his hand, “When I say no, it ans no.”
Yang Yi said with a wry smile, “You’re not following the usual conventions, Mr.
Quinn.”
McDonald Quinn shrugged, “Can’t help it.
You won’t cherish what cos too easily.
Are you incredulous because I agreed to your request too readily?
No worries, we can go through it again, and this ti I choose to refuse.”
Yang Yi quickly said, “No, no, it’s just that happiness ca all too suddenly.
Mr.
Quinn, we should really hurry, ti is pressing.”
McDonald Quinn crossed his legs provocatively, “You don’t suspect anything, do you?”
“Of course not!
Impossible!”
McDonald Quinn sighed, “I see you’re a very polite young man.
I like young people who are polite and understand the rules, so I agreed to your request.
But now it seems I was too frivolous a mont ago, so I’ve decided not to go.
Whatever you say, I won’t go.
At least, let consider it for three days.”
Yang Yi was a bit flabbergasted and really wanted to slap himself as he awkwardly said, “But we really are short on ti.”
McDonald Quinn turned his head away, and just then, Anton suddenly said, “I understand now.”
Yang Yi wanted to ask, what do you all understand!
Anton suddenly pulled out his handgun, pressing it against McDonald’s head, and said in a deep voice, “Co with us, or I’ll blow your brains out.”
Yang Yi’s mouth began to twitch violently, while McDonald spread his hands and said, “Alright, it seems I don’t have much choice.”
McDonald stood up again.
Yang Yi blurted out stupidly, “Fuck!”
Anton put the gun away and then said to McDonald, “Don’t mind it, the young man doesn’t know any better.”
McDonald nodded and asked, “And you’re from where?”
“KGB.”
“Oh, how’s it going?”
“Not good, but not too bad either, just so-so.”
Yang Yi was dumbfounded, then he expressed his amazent, “You two know each other?”
Anton and McDonald both looked at Yang Yi and then shook their heads together, after which McDonald shook his head and said, “We don’t know each other, why would we?”
For the first ti, Yang Yi felt his intelligence was insufficient as he said with a gloomy face, “Then what is this all about?”
Anton said in a serious tone, “I’ve heard of him, the ‘Bomb Godfather.’ I’ve studied the bomb sches he developed.”
Yang Yi took a breath, then said with so sorrow and anger, “Then why are you talking all this weird stuff?
Why?”
Anton patted Yang Yi on the shoulder and said, “The ‘Bomb Godfather’ does whatever he wants to do; does he need a reason?
You’re here to find him, and he happens to be free.
Where is there a need for a reason?
You’re still young, you wouldn’t understand.”
McDonald said with a smile, “Yeah, MI5 has been keeping a close watch on ; it’s really boring to be under surveillance.
Also, my lease is up this month, but I don’t have the money for the rent.”
Anton shook his head and said, “Young man, you just don’t understand.
So you’ve had a pretty rough ti these years?”
McDonald made a face and said, “It’s been awful.
Do you like being the monkey in the zoo that everyone stares at?”
“Well, actually I’ve been one for a while.
I lived in a prison not long ago, locked in a cell with just bars, and everything I did could be seen.”
“That’s really tough.”
“Yeah, it was tough enough.
So what about you?
Did you do nothing after leaving the Irish Republican Army?”
“Nothing, just idling away ti by teaching two students.
One of them has beco a rcenary, and he’s doing quite well for himself.
He ca to chat with once, and I was actually quite envious of the things he told .
I said I might as well beco a rcenary myself, but my student told I was too old and not suitable for their rcenary Group.
Can you believe that?
Am I old?”
McDonald appeared very indignant and then said angrily, “And besides, the Irish Republican Army has turned into the ghost it is now.
My retirent and being sent here was a part of the Northern Ireland peace agreent, but now, I’m treated like an outdated antique!
Fuck!
I am the ‘Bomb Godfather’ after all!”
Having said that, McDonald sighed helplessly, “As much as I hate being watched, these days I’m actually beginning to appreciate that MI6 people still co to see .
They’re the only ones who make feel valued.
It’s sad that I can only find so sense of presence from them.”
Anton said solemnly, “Then co with us.
You might be risking your life at any mont, but you’ll never feel like you have nothing to do.”
McDonald spread his hands and said, “I’ve already agreed, haven’t I?”
Anton responded, “You should set so conditions.”
McDonald looked at Yang Yi and said, “You’re right, I should set terms.
You need to give one million dollars, then I can agree to your request.”
Yang Yi grabbed McDonald’s hand, so excited he was nearly in tears, and said with a trembling voice, “Deal!
Let’s go!”
