Chapter 444 (1/2)

”Derek, you look a little bad. Do you need help?” asked Catherine with concern.

”No, no, Catherine, I have to go in advance. Bye!” Derek looked at the old black rising out of the water, twitched his eyes and hurried away.

”Hey, want to go?” Bai Shaoming suddenly felt elated. How about being taller and more handsome than me? Don't you want to get out of here?

He selectively ignored the fact that he had gone away in front of Xia Yan, and more than once.

”Let him go,” Xia Yan said. Derek was obviously used by others. The guys with beards tried to test themselves in the name of helping him.

Who the hell are they?

Xia Yan thought for a while and got a little clue. Her Lich identity is unlikely to leak out, let alone be known by these inexplicable foreigners. Since they take the initiative to find their own trouble, the first may be that they feel that they use magic. If this is possible, the beard must be a supernatural person.

Another possibility is that these people are mercenaries. Last time, the Xie family released a reward task on the black hole platform, which led many mercenaries and killers to China. Many people focused on Xia Yan. It is estimated that Xia Yan's photos have been widely spread in this circle. If these people are mercenaries, it makes sense.

But haven't the Xie family withdrawn the reward? Even if these people kill or catch themselves, they won't get money from the Xie family. Why should they do so?

No, no!

Xia Yan suddenly had a movement in her heart. It seemed that she wanted to fork over. If these people could really kill themselves, the Xie family would be willing to give them a satisfactory reward, which might be more than 50 million US dollars. Anyway, people are dead, and the Xie family doesn't have to worry more about being retaliated.

Moreover, the Xie family did not offer a reward. Even if these people failed, they would not be involved.

In short, this is a tacit understanding between the Xie family and these mercenaries that has not been publicized. Mercenaries know that if they kill Xia Yan, they will get money. The Xie family also knows that even if they withdraw the reward, some powerful mercenaries and killers will not give up this task, because they know that the Xie family will give money.

What the Xie family needs to do may be to release this possibility in a small range in the form of rumors through someone who has nothing to do with it. Naturally, it will get the desired effect.

Of course, in the rumor, it will definitely add that it is not allowed to start in China, otherwise Xia Yan will definitely find trouble with Xie's family at the first time, and the police will not sit idly by.

Xia Yan thinks this conjecture should be more in line with the facts.

Since someone took aim at himself, Xia Yan naturally wouldn't wait to be attacked. He was ready to take the initiative to solve the trouble.
