The man in the suit was talking when a phone rang. Ye Chengfeng originally thought that a city like Mogadishu would not have such a facility as a telephone. However, the man in a suit opened a drawer in the office and took out a telephone, and it was the kind with a fax machine. The fax machine was printing information quickly, and within a short while, a thick pile of paper was already on the table. The man in the suit looked at the paper in his hand intently, and put it down after a long time. The man in the suit lit another cigarette and took two strong puffs. Then he looked at Ye Chengfeng, but he still didn't speak for a long time, as if he was thinking about something. Ye Chengfeng saw that the man in the suit seemed to be very addicted to smoking. He had already smoked less than half a pack of cigarettes within a short time of meeting him. At this moment, the man in the suit suddenly coughed, and then he took out a white handkerchief from his pocket and put it to his mouth. He coughed for a long time before taking the handkerchief away. The man in the suit took away the handkerchief, glanced inside it, then immediately curled up into a ball and quickly stuffed it into his pocket. He raised his head and said to Ye Chengfeng, "I have basically mastered your information." Although he quickly collected it. After removing the handkerchief, Ye Chengfeng still saw a trace of blood in the center of the handkerchief. The man in the suit picked up a stack of papers on the table, looked at it and said to Ye Chengfeng, after reading your information, I suddenly thought of my teenage years. As he spoke, he took out a cigarette and handed it to Ye Chengfeng, and then said, I am a Chinese American who grew up in the Philippines. I also lost my parents in a turmoil and entered the society prematurely. As he spoke, he smoked a cigarette and fell into deep thought, as if he had returned to that era. The man in the suit said, At that time, I also joined a local Chinese society in the Philippines. By virtue of my lack of worries and my daring to venture out and fight, I was able to carve my own niche. Later, I was appreciated by the gang boss and eventually became a member of the gang. The words of the community matter. Hearing this, Ye Chengfeng couldn't help but look at the man in a suit. He didn't expect that this man in a suit, who looked gentle and had a sickly look to him, was actually once a club boss. The man in the suit went on to say that later on, the Philippine government began to crack down hard, and gangster-type organizations could not survive at all. My top priority after taking office was how to survive with my brothers. Ye Chengfeng couldn't help but look at the man in the suit, so you started doing business. The man in the suit smiled and said to Ye Chengfeng, in fact, we had already started doing business while we were involved in gangs. However, under the general trend of cracking down on Chinese associations in the Philippines, it is not enough for you to have money. If you want to be there, To survive in this society, in addition to having money, you also need to have power. Ye Chengfeng couldn't help but feel something in his heart. He looked at the man in the suit blankly and began to admire the man in the suit in front of him. But I heard him continue to say that in order for the association to continue to survive, we first united all Chinese organizations in the Philippines and concentrated all Chinese forces to negotiate with the Philippine government. Ye Chengfeng said with great interest that the Philippine government has accepted your negotiations. The man in the suit said with a serious look on his face, "We are from a reckless background. It is not easy to sit at the same table and negotiate with the government officials. In the end, the government agreed to negotiate. It was only through our countless demonstrations and sacrifices of countless brothers that we achieved success." the final result. After saying this, he smoked a cigarette, and as soon as he put it out, he lit another one. After taking a puff, he continued to talk to Ye Chengfeng, but this time in the negotiation, we were fooled by the government. On the surface, we accepted conditions, but secretly used various insidious means to divide and alienate us. In the end, we became a piece of scattered sand, unable to defeat ourselves. At this point, the man in the suit lowered his head and smoked fiercely again. I don¡¯t know if he smoked too hard. What followed was a violent cough, but this time he didn¡¯t cough up any blood. Ye Chengfeng then picked up the cigarette from the man in the suit, helped him put it out, and told the man in the suit that it was best not to smoke in your current state. The man in the suit glanced at Ye Chengfeng in astonishment, and then his face gradually became serious. Finally, he sighed and said to Ye Chengfeng, I know my situation very well, and smoking a few cigarettes less will not solve the problem. Before Ye Chengfeng asked him if he was sick, he continued to say that that time was the most difficult time in my life. Even when I lost my parents, I was not that confused. The man in the suit said, taking out a photo from the drawer, his eyes suddenly became energetic, and with a smile on his lips, he said to Ye Chengfeng, "Fortunately, at that time, I met Zina, my wife." Ye Chengfeng could not see the photo in the suit man's hand, but Ye Chengfeng believed that in the eyes of the suit man, his wife Zina must be the most beautiful woman in the world. There was a trace of self-blame in the eyes of the man in the suit, as if he was telling Ye Chengfeng to listen, and he seemed to be talking to himself, if she had not met me, she would definitely be living a better life now. Bar. Seeing that the man in the suit had tears in his eyes, Ye Chengfeng said to the man in the suit, I believe if he asked Mrs. Ling, she would definitely say that the happiest thing in her life was getting to know you and then marrying you. The man in the suit put away the photo and looked up at Ye Chengfeng. After thinking for a while, he told Ye Chengfeng that my wife was killed on the day she married me. She is not considered me either ritually or legally. Mrs. Ye Chengfeng immediately understood that this was just the man in the suit thinking that the woman named Zina was his wife. After thinking for a while, the man in the suit said to Ye Chengfeng, "Don't mention my wife anymore. By the way, where did I stop?" Ye Chengfeng reminded the man in the suit that you said that you had been deceived by the government, which turned you into a mess. The man in the suit nodded and told Ye Chengfeng that after several unsuccessful counterattacks, extreme conflicts arose within us. In the end, I was forced to resign as Prime Minister, but the government still refused to let me go. With the help of my wife, we left the Philippines and absconded to Malaysia. As he spoke, he unconsciously lit another cigarette, and then as if he was afraid that Ye Chengfeng would snuff it out for him again, he immediately told Ye Chengfeng that it was okay. After the man in the suit took a deep breath, he said to Ye Chengfeng, "I thought we could be reborn in another place, but how could life be so easy? The situation in Malaysia was actually not much better than in the Philippines. In those few years Southeast Asian countries seemed to be collectively anti-China. In the second year after we arrived in Malaysia, we heard about the riots in Indonesia. At the end of the same year, Malaysia also introduced a series of policies, all targeting the Chinese. Although Ye Chengfeng is not old, he has heard of some anti-China incidents in Southeast Asia. However, listening to people in China and listening to someone who has experienced it are completely different concepts. The man in the suit went on to say that during that turmoil, there were too many orphans, not just Chinese orphans, but also Malay, Indonesian, and Filipino orphans of all races. They were like this The biggest victim of the turmoil was that at that time, with the encouragement of my wife, I found another goal in life. I was also born as an orphan, and I wanted and should do something for these orphans. At this time, Ether The predecessor of the association, the Asia-Pacific Orphans Association was established. Hearing what the man in the suit said, Ye Chengfeng couldn't help but compare his own life with that of the man in the suit. His early experiences were somewhat similar, but in the end he chose business interests, while the man in the suit chose to work for orphans around the world. Compared with others, I suddenly feel very small. The man in the suit continued, but the overall situation in the Asia-Pacific region does not allow us to change anything. In addition, our political stance is inconsistent with the authorities of many countries, so our Asia-Pacific Association was forced to abort before it could truly take shape. , and it was because I was too strong at the time that my wife was assassinated. Ye Chengfeng sighed for a while. It turned out that the life of the man in the suit was far more exciting than he imagined, but at the same time it was also far more difficult and tragic than he imagined. The man in the suit then told Ye Chengfeng, "After my wife passed away, I have been in exile because many countries in Southeast Asia cannot tolerate me. After several reversals, I fled to Somalia. Here, in the most chaotic place in the world, I I seemed to hear my wife's voice again. She seemed to be telling me in heaven that this would be the base for me to rise again and fight for it, so I re-founded the Ether Society here. At this point, the man in the suit finished smoking a cigarette. After squeezing it out with all his strength, he told Ye Chengfeng that although it was a mess here, there was no big force that could stop me from doing this. Soon the ether will get it. Unprecedented development, people from all over the world joined our organization after the lobbying of our Ether Society. In just thirteen years, the Ether Society has spread all over the world, and our Ether Society has reached more than 40 countries. , among them there are superpowers like the United States, and of course there are also poor and backward third world countries like Africa. Ye Chengfeng continued what the man in the suit said, saying that it was precisely because the plates were getting bigger and bigger that the good and the good were mixed, which eventually led to the ether societies in various places working in their own way. The man in the suit nodded. This situation was something I had not expected before. At first, everyone was doing it for charity, but in the end, many people used the name of the Ether Society to start committing crimes, even smuggling and selling drugs, and they did all kinds of evil. Ye Chengfeng couldn't help but think of a question. Since the energy of the headquarters can no longer control the local power of each district, why would Yang Laosan kill you to seize the class and seize power? Isn't this ridiculous? The man in the suit smiled at Ye Chengfeng. He was not funny at all.??Because during the golden age of the Ether Society, we received assistance from many countries around the world. The amount of charitable funds from the Ether Society could be described as astronomical figures. At first, they applied for various funds from the headquarters. Later, I found out that they applied for the past money. , instead of being used wisely, they enriched their own wallets, and even used the money that was originally intended for good deeds to do bad things, so I gradually terminated various allocations. Ye Chengfeng's heart moved and he said to the man in the suit, "Yang Laosan wants to kill you because of the money. That's not right. If he wants the money, he should kidnap you. If you die, what will he do with the money?" get.
