Chapter 201 Careful thinking
It is necessary to sort out this not-so-large but somewhat complex network of relationships.
Mike Smith is one of Yang Yi's five contacts left by his father.
Yang Yi first contacted John Jones, but John Jones was dead.
After John Jones' death, Yang Yi, who had no guide, contacted Mike Smith, but was told that Mike Smith was dead, so Yang Yi did not continue to contact Mike Smith, but contacted David in Xianggang, and David introduced him to Danny.
After meeting Danny, Yang Yi went to Pelican Bay Prison, and then he learned about Brian's existence in Pelican Bay Prison. Then, Yang Yi helped Brian escape.
After Brian escaped from prison, he recruited two of his men, but was also chased by Cia.
To be clear, it is not Cia who has been chasing Brian so far, but Cia destined to borrow Cia's power alone, but no matter what, no matter who the mole is, as long as he can still call Cia's power to deal with Bryan, then Brian will have nowhere to deal with it.
In this case, Brian needs to leave the United States with Charles and Paul for a while to avoid the edge. They cannot do this themselves, so they need to turn to others for help.
But Brian and Charles knew Mike Smith.
So, after spending a lot of time and going around from Britain to the United States, Yang Yi miraculously contacted Mike Smith again.
It has to be said that the circle of spies is indeed very small, and those long-famous intelligence personnel must have close relationships.
But none of the above matters.
Yang Yi has the legacy left by his father. Although this legacy is just a telephone book, the power contained in it is very powerful. First of all, since Yang Yi's father left the contact information of these five people, it means that he trusts these people, and he also believes that these five people can definitely help him handle his funeral.
So the most important question now is that Mike Smith should be an extremely important part of Yang Yi’s relationship network, but now, it’s going to be mixed with Brian.
Without Brian, Yang Yi couldn't find Mike Smith. But after having Brian, would Mike Smith still be willing to help him like those who Yang Yi had asked for help before?
John Jones accepted Yang Yi without hesitation, for the sake of Yang Yi's father.
David in Xianggang also pulled Yang Yi at an extremely critical moment without hesitation. Although it was not David who took action himself, Yang Yi would not be able to know Danny without David's connection.
Dannyken saved Yang Yi's life without hesitation, but it was actually for Yang Yi's father's sake.
By far, Yang Yi's most important relationship network is the legacy left by his father, but now, this relationship network is mixed with Brian. Since the moment Brian asked Yang Yi to call Mike Smith, things have changed a little because Yang Yi has lied to Mike Smith.
Yang Yi didn't know that he could contact Mike by changing the last few numbers. This was what Brian told him, but Yang Yi concealed this.
No one likes to be cheated.
Mike Smith admitted his identity, so Yang Yi is facing a problem now. Should he tell the truth to Mike Smith, or wait for Brian or Charles to take the initiative to reveal his identity to Mike Smith?
Yang Yi said it himself, that he was not deceiving Mike. If he didn't say anything and asked Charles or Brian to contact Mike directly, it would be that he had concealed something from Mike Smith.
The human heart is very delicate, and Yang Yi's next first sentence is likely to be related to Mike Smith's future perception of him.
Don't underestimate this issue, this is actually a very, very critical choice.
Telling Mike the truth means that Yang Yi thinks that the relationship network left by his father is more important. If he chooses to conceal the truth, Yang Yi thinks that Brian is more important, and even if he loses Mike Smith's trust, it doesn't matter.
It is better to be honest in life, but Yang Yi is determined to be a spy. If a spy is too honest, it will not be far from death.
It’s not a big deal, but it is very likely to affect Mike and Brian’s future feelings towards Yang Yi, so what’s now is whether Yang Yi can be good at dancing and not offend both sides. This is not a matter of IQ, but a moment to test emotional intelligence.
After Mike Smith admitted his identity, Yang Yi almost stopped. He immediately said happily: "Great! You are Mr. Smith. I finally found you. Oh, I have two old friends around me. It's a coincidence that I wouldn't be able to contact you if they didn't have them, but I'd better keep these in the future. Do you want to talk to your old friends now?"
Mike Smith's voice immediately became alert, and he said in a deep voice: "My old friend? Who is it?"
Yang Yi can accept that others are fools, but Mike must not think that he is cheating people.
Yang Yi said excitedly: "You can ask him personally and wait a moment."
Looking at Brian and Charles, Yang Yi looked excited and said, "I think it's better for you to talk to Mr. Smith in person."
Brian smiled bitterly, but Charles shrugged, and then he reached out and said, "I'll do it."
After receiving the call, Charles immediately said in a deep voice: "Hi, Mike, I'm Charles."
"Charles? Why is it you? I understand! Brian is back to find you!"
I have to say that Mike's reaction was so fast. When he knew who his so-called old friend was, he immediately guessed the truth of the matter.
This shows that Mike knows Charles very well, and that also shows that his brain is indeed fast.
Charles whispered: "Yes, I'm with Brian now, but listen carefully, things are different from what you think! Brian did not betray us, he was framed!"
Mike was silent for a moment, then he whispered: "I don't really care about this anymore."
Charles raised his voice and said loudly, "No! You care, I care even more! Don't you want to know what's going on?"
Mike whispered: "I understand, don't say anything, and hand over the phone to Yang Yi."
Charles hesitated for a moment and handed the phone to Yang Yi. After Yang Yi took the phone, he whispered: "Mr. Smith, are there any problems?"
Mike Smith whispered: "There's a little bit of a problem. Listen, I'd like to see you, bring the people around you to meet me, and say what you have to say when you meet me, and remember the address."
