The four of them all thought of their past and silently drank the drinks in their glasses.
"In order to keep people away from the darkness, we first have to stand in the deepest part of the darkness." Shaun couldn't help but sigh as he remembered the words Lola had said.
At that moment a middle-aged man in a suit walked up to their table, smiled at them and said, "Excuse me." Without waiting for the four men to speak, the man in the suit himself moved a chair from the side and placed it at the table and sat down.
All four of Shaun's people looked at him silently, no one asked questions, they knew this man would tell what he was up to.
The man in the suit's brown hair was unkempt and slightly balding, not exactly fit but not on the large side of his belly either, he obviously took care of himself on a regular basis. The man said to the four with an extremely affable smile, "Gentlemen, my name is Lucas. My name is Lucas Beyer, I'm Mr. Eugene Bogonov's lawyer."
The man in the suit, Beyer, paused politely to allow Shaun and the other four to digest the meaning of the name Eugene Bogonov. Bogonov's name, and then continued, "I'm here to convey a few messages on behalf of Mr Eugene Bogonov. Bogonov to convey a few words. Please give me a few minutes of your time."
Shaun found the name Bogonov familiar and couldn't recall where he had heard it for a moment.
Chloe said coldly: "Not interested, get lost."
Beyer smiled and responded, "Beautiful Ms Chloe, I'm very sad to hear you say that, if it wasn't for work, I'd love to invite you to lunch."
Chloe was not the least bit moved, still coldly said: "You go straight back and tell Eugene that the next time his son falls into my hands, I won't give him the chance to go to court to get out of it, but I will just ripped his son's genitals out and shoved them in his mouth for him to swallow."
Shaun almost couldn't hold back his laughter and secretly shouted in his heart:¡°Miss Chloe you're tough enough!"
Beye smiled and said: "Young Master Alex has learnt his lesson and won't do something like that again."
Chloe snorted: "That scum will receive a lesson? Just doesn't dare to show up in Northern and Western Europe, right, and only returns to Eastern European to continue his misdemeanours."

Beyer smiled and stopped arguing, turning to look at the others, he said, "Now I want to talk to you about something else, Cologne is a city we want to get a foothold in and establish a stronghold, and the Grey Wolves are important cadres for us."
Hearing the name "Grey Wolf", Shaun immediately remembered that Bogonov was the backstage of the Albanian drug gang, and Grey Wolf was their boss, who had already been killed by Lola. When he thought of this, Shaun looked at Lola, and saw that Lola was also suddenly enlightened, it seems that she also just remembered.
Beyer continued: "Yesterday the stronghold we just established in Cologne not long ago was terminated by this Ms Lola, the leader Grey Wolf was killed, and goods worth two million euros were handed over to the police by Ms Lola." Saying this Beyer looked at Lola and revealed a bitter smile.
Lola shrugged and said, "By the way, no need to thank me."
Shaun outwardly didn't show any emotion, but in his heart he actually thought that Beyer was about to jump up and lift the table.
But Beyer didn't, his smile still had affinity, as if the words of both sides just now had nothing to do with him.
"What Mr Bogonov means is that he has full respect for your organisation, and although you have once again violated the agreement not to directly intervene in secular disputes, he does not want to hold you responsible for it, just ..." Beyer paused here, his right hand resting on the table and tapping his ten fingers to make a continuous clattering sound, "Cologne is an important layout for the International Gangster Federation, a city not far from Paris, Brussels, and Amsterdam, as well as the waterways of the Rhine. So, we are required to establish a stronghold here. But this is an afterthought."
"Tomorrow night there will be a barge from Rotterdam anchored in Cologne, there are some things on board that are very important to the International Gangster Alliance, and they will be handed over in Cologne to be transferred to land transport, originally, the handing over was in charge of Greywolf, but even if he's not dead yet, I'm afraid that he's not qualified enough to do the security work in light of what happened last night."
"Because of the appearance of the Dark Order and an unknown organisation last night, tonight's handover could be very unsafe. Because this cargo is very special, there might be obvious energy fluctuations during the handover, drawing the attention of supernatural beings like you. If anything goes wrong with tonight's cargo, then even Mr Bogonov will be punished by the International Gangster Alliance, so Mr Bogonov would like to directly propose a commission to you all, asking you to supervise tonight's handover process, so that as long as the cargo is transferred from the ship to the big lorry and leaves the boundaries of Cologne, the commission
3 / 5
would be considered as completed, even if nothing happens. Any further problems with the cargo after it leaves Cologne will also have nothing to do with you all, and the commission will still be counted as completed."
"Mr Bogonov will give you all two names in return, one of the Demon Spirit Agents in Prague, and the other of the followers of the Dark Order who are in the Vatican."
"There is also the possibility that if someone shows up at the handover site to sabotage or loot it will only be one of the three forces of the Demon Spirit Agents, the Dark Order, and that unknown organisation, as it is a legitimate shipment and the police and state security services will not be present. And the reason why all of you are currently in Cologne is to watch out for these three forces, especially that unknown organisation, right, if the other party appears at the handover site, wouldn't that be exactly what you all want?"
Shaun heard these words from Beyer and thought to himself: "I don't know what other people think, but after hearing this guy's words, I really don't think there is any reason to refuse, and I can't help but want to go and join in the fun. No wonder he dares to come alone to convince us, he really is an excellent litigator."
Lola and Richard and Chloe looked at each other, no one said anything. Richard said to Beyer, "Give us a few minutes."
Beyer smiled a warmer smile: "No problem, I'll be at the far table, you guys talk it over and greet me." After saying that he got up and sat at a more distant table.
Shaun asked first, "Why isn't he afraid we'll go down and disrupt their handover?"
Chloe sneered: "They're afraid. Don't believe the words of this litigant, he can trick people to the point where there are no bone crumbs left. How can an important cargo of the International Gangster Alliance be legal and normal? They are afraid of attracting our attention, so they used the commission to stabilise us in advance, in addition, they are really afraid of other forces appearing, so it's just the right time to make use of us, it's really a two for one solution."
Shaun curiously asked: "You seem to know Bogonov very well, have you had problems in the past?"
Chloe said: "The year before last, when I was on a mission in Sweden, I happened to bump into Eugene Bogonov's son, Alex. Bogonov's son, Alex, was tormenting a ten year old girl. What he did was beyond the bottom line of human evil. But I didn't know he was Bogonov's son, and in my haste to carry out my mission, I broke his legs and sent him to the police station. Then it was that Sven scum, Beyer, who acted as his defence lawyer and got him released with only six months in prison, with the possibility of doing community service instead."
Chloe's coffee had long since run out and the empty cup sat on the table. Speaking of which, the
4 / 5
coffee cup in front of Chloe suddenly cracked and proceeded to shatter into a small pile of shards.
Richard hurriedly said, "Calm down, Chloe. You'll have to pay for the broken cup."
Ignoring him, Chloe gritted her teeth and said, "If I had known that he was Bogonov's son, I would have known that he would get off once he went to court, and I would have killed him on the spot. That's why I'm going to go and spoil that shipment tonight no matter what."
Shaun thought for a moment and said, "I think that might just play right into Bogonov's hands. Beyer has said so much to attract us so that we will go to the scene and mess up even if we don't accept the commission."
"I think it's more likely that Bogonov wants to take this cargo all by himself, but he doesn't dare to, so he wants to attract our attention, so that we will go to the scene, no matter if we accept the commission or go to mess up, as long as we get there, he will use the opportunity to create chaos, take advantage of the opportunity to take the cargo, and then frame us for the crime."
After saying that Shaun looked at the others and added, "I think that's more likely."
Richard nodded approvingly: "I think Shaun's analysis makes sense."
Laura and Chloe also gave a rare nod of approval.
Shaun was a little embarrassed: "So how do we react? Should we just not go?"
Richard shook his head and said, "No, of course we're going,, it's just that they won't know we're there. We won't confront them either, we'll just quietly take the stuff away, I'm still better at that." At this Richard smiled wryly.
"But there's one thing to keep in mind, if the International Gangster Alliance is taking this cargo so seriously according to what Beyer said, then they'll definitely be sending quite powerful and strong people to sit on it." Richard added.
"I'll come along too, they're handing over next to the Rhine and the water is my domain." Chloe said.
"Beyer said that the cargo would have energy fluctuations that would attract the attention of supernatural person, so there's a good chance that it would attract someone from that organisation over there.Why don't we focus on the river tonight and all sneak over to see what happens." Shaun said.
Richard and the other three nodded and Richard said, "I have the ability to sneak in close to them, Chloe is in the water. Shaun and Lola you stay away and see what happens."
5 / 5
Deciding on a plan to deal with the situation, they called Beyer over and told him they didn't want to accept the commission.
Beyer didn't see any disappointment, still keeping his smile, he said to the four of them, "Then I'll leave you to it, I hope the four of you have a good time in Cologne." After saying that, he saw the shards of the porcelain cup in front of Chloe, smiled and gathered the shards in front of himself, his hands kept pinching and squeezing in the shards, and in a short while, he actually reduced the broken pieces of porcelain into a coffee cup.
"Don't break it again oh Ms Chloe." Said Beyer and left with a smile on his face.
