963: Chapter 951 Give Me an Explanation_2 963: Chapter 951 Give Me an Explanation_2 After checking his watch, Gao Yang said in a deep voice, “Start the timer.”
The bodyguard hesitated for a moment but then immediately turned to knock on the door before entering the inner room.
Gao Yang turned around when the timer reached fifty-nine seconds, and just then, someone behind him called out loudly, “Please come in.”
Gao turned around and walked towards the inner room.
As he passed the bodyguard at the entrance, the guard whispered harshly, “Don’t play tricks, or I’ll blow your head off!”
Gao didn’t stop.
He saw Tomler.
Tomler stood up from behind his desk, spreading his arms with a helpless smile on his face.
Without speaking, Gao reached into his trouser pocket.
As he pulled something out, he heard the sound of guns being drawn behind him.
Gao didn’t look back.
He reached behind his waist and drew his own pistol.
At that moment, he heard the click of a gun’s slide nearby and felt the cold muzzle of a gun pressing against the back of his head.
Without turning, Gao took another step forward and stood in front of Tomler’s desk, placing two stainless steel tags dangling from a chain on the desk, followed by a handgun with a clack.
The stainless steel tags were Bruce’s military dog tags from his time in the service.
The gun was a Colt M1911A1 Commander model.
The smile on Tomler’s face grew even more helpless.
After placing the items down, Gao tugged the chair in front of him and sat down before saying calmly, “Give me an explanation, or I’ll give you one.”
Tomler shrugged and said, “Ram, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Gao raised one hand and said, “You don’t understand what I’m saying, but I understand what you’re saying, fine, so I’ll give you an explanation.”
Gao stood up to grab the dog tags and the gun but another gun was pressed against his head.
Just then, Tomler waved his hands repeatedly, saying, “Everyone get out, Ram, sit down!
We can sit and talk this through slowly!”
Gao sat back down, and the four bodyguards looked at each other.
After Tomler waved again, they ultimately did not leave, just stepped back.
Tomler sat back down, sighed, and said helplessly to Gao, “Where did you guys run off to?
I’ve been looking for you these past few days.”
“We hid ourselves, to prepare to kill you.
Now we’re ready, so here I am.”
Tomler let out a bitter laugh and said, “Ram, I understand why you’re angry, and I truly regret what happened, but please, let’s not joke around.”
With a serious voice, Gao said, “You just regret it, but one of my brothers is dead.
If it hadn’t been for him, we’d all be corpses now, so just regret isn’t enough.
I’ve said before, you owe me an explanation, and you know this is no joke.”
Tomler spread his hands and said, “Okay, I do owe you an explanation.
Just tell me, what do you want?”
Gao stared intently at Tomler and said in a deep voice, “Why did you attack us?”
Tomler said helplessly, “It’s complicated.”
“Then simplify it.”
“Alright, I know you’ve met my assistant.
He told me, I have to clarify that this has nothing to do with me; it was the employers acting on their own.
They hired someone to deliver goods but didn’t trust anyone, so they bypassed me and the recipient to order your assassination, something I only found out about afterward.”
Gao said sternly, “Krulney is your assistant, your main assistant.
Last time I was here, I saw him and chatted with him, but I also saw him in Damascus.
He met us with people from the Iron Madonna, led us to Damascus, and then the recipients and people from the Iron Madonna attacked us together.
Now you’re telling me you had nothing to do with it.
Do you think I’d believe that?”
Tomler gave a wry smile and said, “I swear that everything I’m saying is true.
Listen to me, Krulney was also kept in the dark, he didn’t know that IS and the people from Saudi Arabia intended to kill you, he really didn’t know.
And the fact that Iron Madonna got involved was also something he found out afterward, really.
Plus, I can tell you that the Iron Madonna had a vendetta against you.”
“Clarify that.”
Tomler sighed and explained, “After meeting you, the Iron Madonna found out through Krulney that you were Satan.
Not long before that, they had suffered heavy losses in Brazil, were badly beaten, and lost several people.
They believed it was the work of Satan.
Their basis was that when trying to intercept and engage their enemies on the river, they were beaten even more badly, by a machine gunner and a sniper, which decimated them.
And they thought, in terms of the number of people, combat power, or the characteristics of the sniper and machine gunner, only the Satan Mercenary Corps could fit the profile.”
Gao coldly asked, “It was only speculation?”
Tomler earnestly replied, “It really was just speculation.
Otherwise, Iron Madonna has no reason to move against you, because they were hired by me, and I truly didn’t give that order.
What I’m telling you is what Krulney shared with me afterward, when everything had already happened.
Krulney and I were both dragged into this, but I’m truly innocent.”
Gao said sternly, “I already know who the recipients were.
It’s no secret, so I find your words hard to believe.”
Tomler sighed and said, “Ram, listen to me, we’ve all been played in this affair.
IS is an organization with hidden backers, and I can tell you that America is among them.
I also played a certain role in this, but now IS is out of control!
Understand?
They’re out of control and have become a big threat, a threat to us all, as Atta once was.”
