Chapter 2439 Burn It for Me (3rd Update)

"when--"

When Canshou stood at the door with a submachine gun to block his view, Ye Tianlong opened the iron door with the key and walked to the basement.

The basement is about fifty square meters, fully furnished, with a bathroom and toilet, and a lazy sofa in the middle.

Sitting on the sofa was a thin man, about fifty or sixty years old, with white hair, about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a military uniform without epaulettes.

He looked a little thin, but his spirit was tenacious, as if nothing could weigh him down.

His presence also made the whole room seem full, as if another needle inserted would cause an explosion.

At this moment, he is holding a book in his hand, the title is "Ordinary World" by Lu Yao.

Judging from the yellowed pages, this person has read this book at least dozens of times, and he obviously has a special liking for this book.

Ye Tianlong recognized that this man was exactly the Babu he was looking for.

Feeling the change in light, the man in military uniform frowned slightly, then put down the book in his hand, looked sideways at the entrance, and saw the unfamiliar Ye Tianlong.

He examined Ye Tianlong, then smiled lightly: "You are here to kill me."

Ye Tianlong smiled when he heard this and slowly approached the man in military uniform: "Don't I look like a new guard?"

Babu was very calm: "Songchai will never let stranger soldiers guard me. Those who can guard this underground prison are all Somchai's die-hard loyalists."

"And I basically know all of his die-hard fans."

Babu's mind was clear: "So you can't be a guard."

Ye Tianlong smiled and asked again: "Even if I am an infiltrator, can't I save you?"

Babu put "The Ordinary World" on the table, looked at Ye Tianlong and smiled peacefully: "Nearly all of my men died, and my family was also killed."

"The power and money in his hands have almost been poached by Somchai."

"My final value in this world is to live a few more days to show Somchai's kindness."

Babu's eyes were deep: "And you are not Somchai, and you took the risk to come here. Obviously, you are the one who wants my life."

Ye Tianlong smiled again: "Maybe I rescued you to use your fame to rally the heroes of the green forest to resist Songchai."

Babu laughed loudly: "Young man, this is not the ancient time. We are not holding the emperor hostage to order the princes."

"I have no money, no manpower, and no strong foreign aid. The so-called reputation is worthless in the face of guns, otherwise I wouldn't be in this situation."

"Furthermore, Songchai has basically completed the reshuffle of Cui Kingdom, and no one will follow me when I get out alive."

He added: "Another point is that at my declining age, I have no one to invest in forming a government-in-exile."

"The fact that you can break in here and remain unscathed shows that you are not a simple person. How could you do something stupid to save me?"

Babu was very calm: "So when you show up here, you must be here to kill me. You want me to die quickly."

There is another saying deep in his heart, maybe someone really saves him regardless of the cost, but it will definitely not be someone like Ye Tianlong.

Ye Tianlong nodded when he heard this, with a hint of approval in his eyes. It had to be said that Babu was indeed a character and had sufficient knowledge of himself.

Seeing Ye Tianlong's acquiescing look, Babu's face didn't have much sadness, and there was a glimmer of light:

"Can you tell me your origin?"

Babu looked at Ye Tianlong with a smile: "After all, I have almost lost the value of death. I am really curious about you taking the risk to come in and kill me like this."

Ye Tianlong took a few steps forward, closing the distance between the two parties: "Forget about my origins, to you, dogs and cats are all the same."

"But I am willing to tell you my purpose."

He sighed softly: "I want to kill Songchai, but there is no chance. In addition to the fact that he has too many guards around him, he also lives in seclusion."

Babu asked with a smile: "You can't find an opening to start?"

"That's right."

Ye Tianlong nodded: "After he seized the throne, although he brutally purged your power, he himself was also afraid of being shot in the head by your die-hard loyalists."

"Especially in the past few days, someone held explosives and died with him, so Songchai became even more difficult to target."

"If it were someone else, if they couldn't kill him, they would wait and then take action after a while."

"But for me, I've come here and I really don't want to leave empty-handed."

His smile was very gentle: "So I can only come to you, borrow your life, and take his life."

"I kind of understand, but I don't understand."

Babu digested these words, and then sighed: "But it doesn't matter, I have already lost the whole world, and I don't care about sacrificing myself again."

In addition to his status as a prisoner, he has been in office for many years and has already enjoyed countless wealth. He will not suffer at all if he dies at this moment.

My only regret is that I didn’t spend all the money I had left.

"Are you sure I'm dead? Can you kill Somchai and let him accompany me to hell?"

The wrinkles on his face looked even deeper, as if they were being cut with a knife and an axe, and his eyes shrank into needlepoints:

"Although I can't control my own life or death, I still hope that my death will be worthwhile."

Ye Tianlong nodded without hesitation: "If I didn't have this confidence, there would be no need for me to risk coming here."

"Don't worry, Songchai will definitely be with you for the first seven days after your death."

He added: "The blood debt he owes you will be repaid in full."

"I trust you."

Bab let out a long breath, then sat up straight and said: "Young man, I am willing to give you my life, but I hope you can promise me one thing."

Ye Tianlong looked at him calmly: "What is it?"

Bab took "Ordinary World" from the table, put it in a bag and handed it to Ye Tianlong: "Take this book away and burn it for me on the seventh day."

"If it is left in this ghost place, those soldiers will definitely throw it into the trash can, and may not burn it with my body."

He looked kindly: "It has been with me for more than ten years and has given me a lot of encouragement in life. Let it accompany me to destruction on the seventh day."

Ye Tianlong was a little surprised by such a request, but still nodded heavily: "Okay, I promise you, I will burn it for you on the seventh day."

He also caught Babu's reluctance to part with it. Compared with his own life, this book seems to be more valuable.

"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. I'll wait for you to burn it for me."

Bub laughed loudly, then his expression softened, and he looked at Ye Tianlong and said, "Okay, I've said what I need to say, shoot me."

Then, Bub walked back to the single sofa, tidied his clothes, sat upright, and waited for death to come.

"Mr. Bub, have a good journey."

Ye Tianlong sighed softly, then raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at Bub's head.

"Bang——"

Ye Tianlong pulled the trigger and shot a shot into Bub's forehead...
