Chapter 584 The ugly person
Bist Family's mansion is one of the top families on earth in terms of power and talent. A family like this should have a bustling family, and the mansion should be splendid. There are many servants in the mansion who respond to everyone's call. But after Xiao Ran stepped into the mansion, he found that it was not the case at all.
At least ten kilometers away from the Bister Mansion, the place has become inaccessible. Even closer, long barbed wire fences have been erected, and at least fifteen fortresses were seen along the way. After entering this core area that belonged entirely to the Bist Family, a building that looked more like a luxurious bungalow than a fully alerted military base appeared in Xiao Ran's eyes.
Compared to the place where Cardias lived on the moon, the core residence of the Bist Family was incredibly heavily guarded. The huge courtyard in the center where the people of the Bist Family lived was basically deserted. Except for the few people standing outside the main building door, who were completely out of tune with the surrounding environment and were obviously there for reception, there was basically no one doing anything other than patrolling.
However, the entire garden and the exterior walls of the main building looked neat and clean, and the vegetation in the garden was also neatly trimmed. However, the heavily armed guards patrolling the perimeter gave the garden a different meaning.
Perhaps seeing Xiao Ran's surprise, Cardias also glanced calmly out of the car window, and then said, "My grandfather is old, so he will do some unreasonable things, such as basically transforming this place into a heavily protected fortress. Even I don't like this place full of pressure and decided to go to the moon. I'm sorry, I hope it won't bring unnecessary pressure to you."
"Haha, it's okay." Xiao Ran smiled slightly, glanced at Cardias and said, "As an old man, you feel a little frightened and feel insecure. It's normal to find more people to protect you."
Cardias smiled apologetically, but it was not strange because Xiao Ran knew that his grandfather became what he was now because of fear. After all, Xiao Ran knew even such secret things as his father's death, and these things could be detected on the surface. It would be strange if Xiao Ran couldn't guess it with his own addition.
Cardias's grandfather, the founder of the Bist Family, Saiyam, was indeed frightened and changed the family's surroundings into what they are today. When the war broke out between Earth Federation and Zeon, Saiyam had the idea to take out the Original Constitution in Box of Laplace. However, Zeon's actions brought Satellite Fall to the earth, and Earth Federation's counterattack at all costs. What the war brought about made Saiyam feel scared, so he suppressed the idea.
The fear of death caused Saiyam to do some very unreasonable things. The reason why Cardias's father passed away was also deeply connected with Saiyam. However, this connection was deliberately ignored by all living people and was not investigated. This is a helpless tragedy. Because of fear of own death, more people choose to fall into death.
The car stopped directly in front of the main building. Several people standing outside the door of the main building also Federation opened the car door where Xiao Ran was riding. After Cardias nodded to Xiao Ran, the two of them also got out of the car through the opened door on their own side.
As soon as he got out of the car, Xiao Ran looked around. The car in which Saki Maski and El-Elf were riding followed closely behind. At this time, he opened the door and walked out. He didn't feel the slightest uneasiness just because there were only three of him. He walked indifferently to Xiao Ran's side.
Xiao Ran focused on a badge on the main building door, and took a deep look at the family emblem on the door that represented Bist Family, a white unicorn, which represented holiness, nobility, pride, and hope. The unicorn has become the mark of a family that brings death. It has to be said that it is really ironic.
But in the eyes of Xiao Ran, this unicorn crest represents something completely different. It is the direction of the world in the future, it is a white unicorn ultimate machine, and it is also a new story.
Cardias came around from the other side of the car and made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Ran. Before he could speak, the door of the main building with the unicorn crest suddenly opened, and a middle-aged woman wearing revealing clothes and heavy makeup appeared in front of everyone.
El-Elf just glanced at the woman indifferently and turned his head away, while Saki Maski curled his lips and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. Xiao Ran looked at this woman with heavy makeup with great interest. It was not that Xiao Ran was out of his mind, but that he recognized the identity of this woman, and even more felt that a woman who was obviously a mature woman at that time had such a sharp and mean face.
What makes Xiao Ran even more curious is that as the second daughter of the Bist Family, compared to her elder brother Cardias, both temperament and appearance are completely different. Even the color of her hair is completely different. There is no trace of the characteristics of the Bist Family at all.
Cardias looked at the woman who suddenly opened the door rashly and frowned. In his opinion, this woman's behavior was a great offense. She neither came out in advance to greet her nor waited in the main building. Instead, she barged in so unexpectedly. He immediately shouted, "Martha, what are you doing? Have you forgotten all the etiquette of the Bist Family!"
"Haha." The woman named Martha laughed indifferently with her sharp voice. She didn't care about Cardias's scolding. She glanced at Xiao Ran and the other three people with contempt and said, "Is this the most distinguished guest in your mouth? It doesn't seem like a big deal. I thought you were bringing the woman who succeeded to the throne to come back to divide the family property. I didn't expect it to be such three young people."
The young people mentioned by Martha definitely do not have a good meaning, nor is it an adjective but an introduction to another word. Not only Cardias heard it, but Saki Maski also heard that Martha was talking about how he was qualified to receive the VIP treatment from the Bist Family since he was not even hairy.
"Martha!" Cardias's eyes suddenly burst into anger, but Xiao Ran raised his hand to block Cardias, facing After Cardias smiled slightly, he looked up and down at Martha, this disgusting woman, and said, "It doesn't matter, there is no need to be angry with this person because of us."
"But..." Xiao Ran deliberately looked at Martha with a curious look. He and Cardias were very small, as well as Saki Maski and El-Elf beside him. The voice that could hear said, "If you knew that this woman seemed to have an affair with your son for some purpose, of course, she could also encourage your son to shoot you for the same purpose in the future, I wonder what you would choose to do?"
Cardias was stunned for a moment after hearing what Xiao Ran said, and then looked at Martha, whose face was already stunned and panicked, with extremely cold eyes. Although Martha couldn't understand what Xiao Ran was saying, he could do it himself What happened in the past coupled with Xiao Ran's faint voice, it is not difficult to guess the mouth shape of the words. It is obvious that he has done something wrong and glared at Xiao Ran: "You... what are you talking nonsense? How could I do such a thing! Are you insulting us Bist Family!"
"No, Cardias will have his or her own judgment on whether it is insulting or not." Xiao Ran smiled slightly and said, "But I would suggest Cardias to thoroughly investigate to what extent the current Anaheim Company has been penetrated by you, and how many of the Bist Family's collaborators have become your subordinates."
"This woman will get in the way." El-Elf suddenly spoke coldly and said, "Do we want to deal with her?"
El-Elf's words also suddenly shocked Cardias. He didn't expect that this boy who looked like just a teenager could say such words so calmly and coldly in the Bist Family's territory. He was either arrogant or confident, but El-Elf was definitely not the former. The tone of his words also revealed a feeling that no one could stop him as long as he wanted to do it.
Cardias knows that El-Elf is Xiao Ran's subordinate and also knows his name, but he doesn't know what kind of El-Elf he is. People, and Xiao Ran also introduced El-Elf to his partners in a timely manner, "Cardias, this is the One-Man Army I mentioned before."
Cardias, who has been in contact with Xiao Ran for a period of time, knows very well that Xiao Ran is definitely not threatening himself by saying these words at this time. Xiao Ran's character prefers to use conspiracy. The pressure of the general situation allows him to make his own decisions instead of threatening with force. Friendship and trust in his partners are also one of the reasons. More importantly, Cardias also knows that he has no value in letting Xiao Ran threaten him.
In Cardias's heart, the credibility of Xiao Ran's words is 90% even if it is not 100%. Therefore, what Xiao Ran just said about Martha having an affair with his son is not even credible. He completely believed that he would kill himself for some purpose and ignore family ties. Based on his own understanding of Martha, it is absolutely possible for Martha, a selfish and dark-hearted feminist, to do such a thing.
So looking at it this way, El-Elf's words are a warning to himself, and Xiao Ran's introduction to El-Elf's identity shows that El-Elf is not an aimless person. It also reminds Cardias that even if this is really a military base, for them, it can be solved by just one person.
Cardias, who has tied himself to the Xiao Ran chariot, naturally regards himself as a group of people with Xiao Ran. Although it is not clear what will happen in the future, if there is such an unstable person now, When the factors exploded, Cardias absolutely believed that Xiao Ran and others would not have any problems, and he and even Bist Family might suffer crazy revenge from the Earth Federation Army.
Cardias glanced at Martha with cold eyes. "Bist Family I can only make the decision, not you Martha. Since you are in this home, you should do what I tell you to do, instead of self-righteously going against my will and speaking against my guests."
After finishing speaking, Cardias waved his hand gently. "Lock her up and confiscate everything on her. No one is allowed to contact her without my permission. If she wants to escape... kill her on the spot."
After all, the nominal patriarch of the Bist Family is Cardias. Although the person who really calls the shots is still Saiyam, the servants and guards will not disobey Cardias's orders because of this. When Cardias's words fall, there Several people walked directly to the panicked Martha. Two people held their arms and the remaining people followed and took Martha directly into the main building. Along the way, she yelled madly and angry, "Asshole, put me down, bastard..."
Cardias looked at the disappearing figure and let out a long sigh. He turned to look at Xiao Ran and shook his head with an ugly expression. "I'm sorry that this happened. I hope it won't disappoint you. It's unfortunate for my family that something like this happened and even I was kept a secret."
"I'm the one who should say I'm sorry." Xiao Ran smiled apologetically and said, "Originally it's not convenient for me to say too much about such things, but that Martha suddenly jumped out and I couldn't help it, and she is indeed an unstable factor in our cooperation."
"According to our investigation results on the Bist Family, Martha. Bister is a person who values power and money very much. He is cold-blooded and selfish. Originally, this was an internal matter within your family, but Martha. Bister's character and moral character are really worrisome. If our cooperation and planning are not leaked, it will very likely implicate your entire Bist Family, eventually leading to a disaster for the Bist Family."
"I know." Cardias nodded, made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Ran, and then led Xiao Ran into the main building and said, "Hey, one day I also ignored this at first. Martha is indeed a person who cannot control her sexual desire. I will lock her up before we get a preliminary result of what we are doing now, and I will not let her do anything bad."
"This is the best." Xiao Ran nodded. In fact, even if today's scene had not happened, Xiao Ran would have found a way to get rid of this vicious woman who appeared in Gundam UC 0096. The reason is naturally because this vicious woman really makes Xiao Ran feel disgusted, and it is also a very unstable factor. Once detonated, it may bring about bad consequences.
