Chapter 573 The Eve of Action

is one of Antonio's subordinates, and the other party's eyes stopped for a moment on the huge sailboat behind her, "The boss is back, and I want you to come over."

"understood."

After waiting for the other party to leave, Tang Qi bent down and put the resin composite sheet back into the cardboard box, put it in an inconspicuous corner, went upstairs and changed into a casual and loose clothes, and led Xiao Jiu to the restaurant in the main building.

Although she goes to the restaurant in the main building every day, she actually doesn't meet Antonio many times.

The average number of ?? is four or five times a month. The longest time, she did not see him for three months. At that time, it was the peak period of suicide cases of super rich people in various countries.

She was 90% sure that this incident was a conspiracy planned by Antonio and the government of Country X. She just couldn't figure out why Antonio would be so blatant.

Antonio is not short of money, in other words, he can choose a more secret and safer way to make money.

Darknet, smuggling, arms, intelligence, etc.

Thinking about it, the only possibility is that the government of Country X has a handle on him, which makes him have to take risks.

..

In the ?? classic and luxurious restaurant, on the retro dining table ten meters long, half-height candlesticks are lit on both sides, and a huge bouquet is placed in the center. The servants are busy back and forth bringing delicious food to the table.

Today's Antonio has changed from the grim attire of the past, wearing a white shirt, dark suspenders and trousers, with his hair meticulously combed back, looking mature and gentleman, the only thing that remains unchanged is that his neckline is still surrounded by a scarf.

Seeing her attire, Antonio frowned slightly and said unhappily, "There will be guests coming."

Tang Qi sat in her usual seat without hearing a deaf ear, picked up the knife and fork, lowered her head and started to eat dinner.

Antonio stared at her with a gloomy face, and was about to say something when a report from his subordinates came through the walkie-talkie: "Boss, General Rich is here."

Antonio ignored Tang Qi and turned around to greet him.

Tang Qi cut a piece of steak and was about to put it in his mouth, when Xiao Ba's excited voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "Sister Qi, power stone! I sensed it and is coming towards us!"

Tang Qi was stunned for a few seconds, and as if nothing had happened, he continued to put the steak into his mouth.

"Power stone! Sister Qi, did you hear that?"

Tang Qi replied silently while eating: "I heard it."

"Then you are still sitting and eating, hurry up and grab it!"

Tang Qi shook the knife and fork in his hand and joked: "What are you going to grab? Kill them with a knife and fork that cuts steak?"

"Uh.."

Seeing Tang Qi calmly burying her head in the meal, Xiaoba asked a little depressedly: "Sister Qi, why are you not in a hurry? You don't want to save your husband?"

"It's useless to be anxious at this time. I can only think of countermeasures when I'm full. Even if I really want to grab it, I need to have enough physical support."

Xiao Ba suddenly said, "Yes, yes, then you hurry to eat, eat more, it is best to eat all the food on the table, so that they have nothing to eat!"

Tang Qi felt that it was reasonable, got up and picked up the whole plate of steak and put it under the table, "Xiao Jiu, eat quickly!"

Xiao Jiu immediately wagged his tail and devoured it.

One person and one dog, the fighting power is amazing.

When Antonio led the guests into the restaurant, the food on the table was almost half gone, and he stared at Tang Qi with an ugly face.

Tang Qi put down the knife and fork gracefully, the lady picked up the napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth, nodding to Antonio and the three strange men beside him.

"I'm done eating, you guys take it slow, goodbye."

After ??, she got up, burped loudly, and Shi Shiran left the restaurant.

"who is she?"

"The girl who will be my woman."

"No wonder, she is very beautiful and has a lot of personality, you have a good eye."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Hearing the chatter from the restaurant, Tang Qi almost spat out two steaks in disgust.

After leaving the main building, Tang Qi did not go back to her residence immediately, but pretended to take a walk around the lawn of the old castle, while silently asking Xiao Ba: "How is it, have you sensed where something is?"

"On that tall, thin man with blond hair."

seems to have found the answer to the place that I couldn't figure out before.

These three men are obviously from country X, and they have power stones on them, so a series of super-rich suicide incidents are actually transactions between Antonio and country X.

Antonio needs a power stone, and the government of Country X needs sufficient funds to make up for the consumption of the civil war a few years ago, and the two sides hit it off.

After trying to clear the customs, Tang Qi returned to his residence.

Sleepless nights.

The next day, Tang Qi did not go to the basement of the exhibition hall on the other side of the river to work as usual. After calling to explain what the exhibition hall staff needed to do in the next few days, she began to tinker with the sailboat.

At noon, Antonio came back from outside, saw her eating in the restaurant, and walked up to her.

"Did you do it last night on purpose? To spoil my plan by embarrassing me in front of guests?"

Tang Qi calmly put down the knife and fork, wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, and looked up at him, "So, next time you have an important guest, don't ask me to accompany you, otherwise, don't blame me for ruining your good deeds. "

Antonio stared at her gloomily, and suddenly asked, "Why didn't you go to work today?"

Tang Qi replied in a low voice without changing his face: "It is my freedom to work or not, you are not my boss."

Antonio didn't speak any more. After looking at her deeply for a moment, he turned around and strode out of the restaurant.

"Sister Qi, how do I feel that he seems to be suspicious of you?"

Tang Qi continued to eat lunch and communicated with Xiaoba silently: "Maybe, but he is not sure, because he has no evidence, and his personality is suspicious and sensitive. He knows this better than anyone."

Xiao Ba was a little uneasy, "Will he deliberately use this power stone to test you? It's over, I have a bad feeling."

"Whether it is or not, I have to get this energy stone. Little Eight, how many energy sources can you absorb according to your current ability?"

"If I can take the energy stone away, I can absorb it three times. If I can't take it away, I can only absorb it to 50%. This level is only enough to open the treatment cabin for simple trauma treatment. To save your husband, At least 70% of the energy needs to be absorbed."

Tang Qi didn't speak any more. She quietly finished her lunch. After returning to her residence, she said with determination, "Xiao Ba, I plan to act tomorrow night."

"In such a hurry?" Xiao Ba said anxiously: "We are not ready yet, even if we can break through the many defenses and get the power stone, how can we get out of here? If we don't have to wait for half a month, we must at least take the zero of the plane. The parts are ready."

"Wait for one more day, and the chance will be reduced by 10%. I waited for two years, and I finally got this power stone. Whether it is a trap or not, I will try my best!"

Seeing that Tang Qi was determined to get the power stone, Xiaoba did not persuade him any more.

It took an afternoon to make a plan. At night, the huge castle looks like a sleeping beast, and the long-range lights of the observation deck will illuminate the annex where Tang Qi lives every minute.

She took advantage of a short gap of one minute to move the scattered parts removed from the sailboat one by one to a clearing on the cliff behind the castle.

Repeatedly, for a whole night, she ran back and forth twenty or thirty times, and finally finished it before dawn.

There is one more update, about 12:00
