"Is there no other way?" he continued to ask.
"Boss, do you know Norforth of the city-state?"
"Yes, but I don't want to go find him." Amandine paused for a while and added. "Don't ask why, I don't want to tell you yet."
Chris felt that Amandine was more and more mysterious, and he thought that the words just now were not in vain. At this time, Ludes said, "Since they can rob your gold mine, why can't we rob their Illuminati?"
"How to rob?" Amandine asked with great interest.
Ludes said domineeringly, "Kill Corey first, and you take the opportunity to join the Illuminati as the president. If anyone dares to oppose, deal with him."
Amandine finally decided, "Okay! Let's do it."
Now that he is rich and powerful, he is ready to recruit another 3,000 people to form an army, and it is still possible to support these people. He asked Chris and the two people he had recruited to be the captains of the guard, each leading a thousand people. Ludes is a consultant and Eliza is a female assistant. Amandine also spent five million shillings to buy the most advanced weapons in the city-state, and the three captains of the guards trained their teams all day. Ludes was full of confidence and felt that these people could defeat the tens of thousands of troops of the Illuminati. Now it was just a matter of waiting for an opportunity. Amandine contacted Bald Qiang again, "How is it? I'm ready here, just waiting for Corey to show up."
"He will appear at the Pride Farm on the 7th of next month, and it's up to you then." Bald Qiang hung up the call after saying that.
Amandine murmured, "That's only twelve days."
He asked Ludes to discuss the detailed plan, and Ludes reminded him, "This matter must be kept secret. Only the two of us know it. It will be dangerous to expose it in advance."
Amandine had suffered this kind of loss, of course he knew its seriousness, but he still didn't trust Bald Qiang. What if this man betrayed him? He expressed his doubts. "This is very likely. It seems that we need to investigate whether Bald Qiang is lying."
"Then I'll go!"
Ludes was surprised, "You want to go in person?" He didn't agree with Amandine doing this.
"Don't worry, I'll be very careful."
Amandine didn't tell him about the invisibility cloak. He planned to take Uwa with him to investigate. Uwa has been practicing holding her breath recently and can now hold it for more than 20 minutes. Such a long time is enough to do many things. The next day, the two set off. They rented a room closest to the Pride Farm. Uwa put on the cloak and went out to inquire about the news. Amandine sat in the room and waited anxiously. Uwa followed his instructions and only observed, and did not do anything else. She walked around the Pride Farm and found no suspicious places. After fifteen minutes, she rushed back. When she returned to the room where she lived, Amandine asked anxiously, "How is it? Did you find anything?"
"Brother, there are not many people in it, only a few girls are chatting, and Bald Qiang is not here."
"It seems that we came too early, let's stay for a few days first."
During the free days, the two hid in the room watching TV all day, and Uwa would buy food. One day, when she was walking back, someone followed her, but she didn't know. When she arrived at her residence, she was about to sit down when four people suddenly rushed in from the door. They controlled Amandine and Uwa without saying anything, "Who are you?"
"Amandine, you have fallen into a trap this time, let's see where you can run." One of them shouted.
"Bald Qiang, come out quickly, I know you betrayed me again." After shouting several times, Bald Qiang didn't come out, Amandine thought, "Did I guess wrong?"
Five minutes later, the two were taken to Pride Farm. It was not Bald Qiang who interrogated them, but Melissa. She smiled and said, "Boss, we meet again! How are you doing recently?"
"Bullshit, I have been caught by you, how can I be fine?" Amandine said unhappily.
"The president knows that you are good at making money, and wants to ask you to rejoin the Illuminati. Would you like to consider it?"
"He knows everything?"
"Of course, we found out that you asked Uwa to open an account in the stock market. We just want to see how you are going to turn things around."
"Should I hand over all my property?" Amandine asked.
"I can't make the decision on this. You have to ask the president."
Amandine thought that saving his life was the most important thing, and nothing else mattered. Fortunately, only Uwa knew about the invisibility cloak, which was also an important tool for resisting Corey in the future. He gritted his teeth and took the initiative to say, "I am willing to donate all my property to the Illuminati."
Melissa smiled and said, "Boss, you are becoming more and more sensible now. I will pass the message to the president right away."
A few days later, Amandine became the head of the African region again, but this time he was only the second person in charge, specializing in making money for the Illuminati by speculating in stocks. The 3,000 guards that were originally established also belonged to the Illuminati, and now they have nothing to do with him. Amandine failed completely before he could fight back this time, and sighed every day. Ludes was almost a nagging old man. When he saw him, he said, "I really shouldn't have let you out. I should have stopped you at that time."
"Stop talking. I'm almost fed up." Amandine had heard this sentence for no less than a hundred times and was already tired of it.
"Brother, what should we do now?"
"I am now their tool to make money. If I can't make money, they will kill me in a few days. What else can I do? Just leave it to fate!"
Uwa whispered, "Let's find a way to escape?"
Amandine pointed outside the door, "There are five or six people guarding outside, and there are even more people at the gate. How can we escape?"
At this time, Uwa, Ludes, Beyondbear, and Chris were with him. The five of them lived on the third floor of a six-story building. The entire building was under surveillance. Meals were delivered by special people. They usually worked in the hall. There were four bedrooms in a row on the left, and the other side was the entertainment room. Among the five people, only Uwa was a woman. After a long time, Chris was eyeing her and often chatted with her and talked about love. This day, while Amandine was working, he went to find Uwa again. Uwa has nothing to do on weekdays, so she watches TV in the entertainment room. This is her only hobby, and of course there is nothing else to do here. "Darling, what are you doing? Do you want me to accompany you?" This is how Chris used to call Uwa, but he didn't use it for a while, and now he calls her affectionately. Uwa asked with a puzzled look, "Chris,why do you call me that?"
"I used to call you that, and you never objected."
Uwa nodded slightly and didn't say anything. Chris became bolder and sat down next to her, even holding her shoulder. Beyondbear was watching cartoons on another TV. He recently received a secret order from Amandine that if he saw Chris and Uwa together, he must report to him.He saw the two of them being intimate and immediately walked out, "Uncle, something is wrong, they are sticking together again."
"What do you mean sticking together?" Amandine didn't react for a while.
"A woman and a man are sticking together."
This time he finally understood, and he said angrily, "Go!"
