ALL NOVEL Chapter 15 Chris visits
After leaving the casino in Notland, Logan and Victor returned to the apartment to drink all night and chat about each other's past until the early hours of the morning.
At noon, Logan was awakened by a call from Samuel, who urged him to go back quickly because the goods had been unloaded and they had to start their return journey.
Before leaving, Logan left Victor his phone number, hoping to keep in touch with Victor.

Back to the previous warehouse, Samuel and the other two obviously did not sleep all night, but there was no fatigue on their faces. The overnight gambling made them look very excited.
The way back to Santa Fe was much easier than the way here. Without the goods on the car, the burden was less, and Logan did not need to be as cautious and tense as when he set out.
After a day of galloping, he still only walked half the distance.
This time, Logan was no longer demanding. He found a hotel to rest for a night and set off again after getting enough energy.
After leaving Nevada and returning to the deserted road in Santa Fe, the temperature became noticeably hotter.
Logan looked up at the scorching sun hanging in the sky and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Even though it was almost autumn, the temperature in Santa Fe was still high, but fortunately Logan had adapted.
On the way, Logan chatted with Samuel about some trivial matters. It was not until the evening that the four of them officially returned to San Antonio and returned to the logistics warehouse of the Lawrence family.
However, they did not see Chris at the first time.
After Samuel's phone call, they learned that Chris had something to do today, but the other party had sent a special person in charge to give them money and asked them to wait there.
The few people had no objection and waited at the door of the warehouse smoking cigarettes for nearly an hour before they saw the person in charge who was late.
The reward of 20,000 per person did not increase because Logan was the leader.
Touching the thick envelope and confirming that the amount inside was correct, Logan could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This mission was completely over.
"Aren't you curious about what we delivered?"
Samuel counted the money and asked Logan who was about to leave.
When they first took the mission, they were very curious about the goods in the truck, but due to Chris's instructions, they never opened it without permission.
"Not interested."
Logan shook his head indifferently, "I only take money to do things, and I don't care about other things."
He is not a young man. Nearly two hundred years of experience has made him develop the habit of never meddling in other people's affairs. Many things may not need to be cleared away.
"Well, actually we don't know what it is."
Samuel shrugged, put the envelope into his pocket, and whispered: "But the reward is so high every time, I guess the things inside must be not simple, and may even be contraband."
A three or four-day trip can get a few months' reward for ordinary people. Even a fool knows that the things inside are definitely not good things.
But although they are curious, years of adventure have also made them know that it is better to have less trouble than more trouble, and it is better not to know many things.
And Chris knew the details of their trips every time afterwards, which also made Samuel understand that there must be Chris's spies in the team.
"Maybe." Logan shrugged indifferently and turned to walk out of the warehouse door.
He was too lazy to waste his brain on these unimportant things. As long as the money was in hand, he didn't plan to stay.
Walking out of the warehouse, he found the Chrysler that was previously stored here in the open-air parking lot outside.
San Antonio has a strong wind and sand. Even if it is just a simple stay here for a few days, the surface of the car will be covered with a thick layer of yellow sand.
Logan washed the car simply with the automatic washing device beside the parking lot, and then went straight to the supermarket.
Because of the financial difficulties, their expenses were very low before, and many daily necessities at home were in short supply. The daily food was just simple butter potatoes, or some cheap milk cereal.
Now that he has received a reward of 20,000, although he can't say that he can make himself rich, Logan thinks it is necessary to improve the environment at home a little, at least let the professor and Caliban have a hearty dinner.
In the nearby supermarket, Logan bought a lot of things. In addition to some food that he usually couldn't bear to eat, he also bought some daily necessities for the professor and Caliban.
After stuffing everything into the trunk, he drove out of the border and entered the familiar dilapidated factory.
It was almost dusk at this time, and the sun that disappeared into the horizon left a red afterglow all over the sky.
The evening wind whistled in the desert, and the fine sand swept like raindrops.
The abandoned factory, which no one takes care of, looks extremely old in such an environment. Many wooden doors and windows have decayed, the completely abandoned factory buildings around are full of rust, and many buildings that cannot bear the weight have completely collapsed.
"I have to change to a better environment in the future."
Logan looked at the deserted factory and murmured in a low voice.
This place is not only in a bad environment, but also has a large temperature difference between day and night.
The scorching heat during the day can make the temperature here approach 50 degrees. If you put an egg on the sand in the morning, you can eat a well-cooked "sand boiled egg" in the evening.
And the terrifying low temperature at night is comparable to the arrival of winter.
If you are a young person, you may be able to tolerate such a harsh environment, but now the professor is too old, and this kind of environment is not suitable for the elderly to live for a long time.
But fortunately, these days are coming to an end soon. As long as he takes another mission from Chris, he will have enough capital to lead the professor out of this ghost place.
Just when Logan was looking forward to the future, the two black cars parked neatly outside the factory instantly broke his fantasy.
"Damn it!"
Logan's expression suddenly changed, he quickly stopped the car, carefully got out of the car and checked the two cars.
At first glance, you can tell that these two cars are expensive, and they are obviously cars for wealthy people.
Why would a wealthy person patronize such a shabby-looking factory?
Logan frowned and noticed the license plates of the two cars, which were local brands in Santa Fe City.
After seeing the license plate clearly, he relaxed slightly, "Fortunately, it's not Donald."
With a murmur, Logan no longer hesitated and rushed directly into the factory.
The dark factory building was lit by an incandescent lamp hanging from the ceiling.
Under the incandescent lamp, Caliban sat on the sofa tremblingly, his neck curled up, his face full of fear.
Behind him, three sturdy bodyguards in black suits stood side by side, looking meticulous.
Opposite Caliban, a familiar figure sat.
He sat comfortably on the sofa, with his hands spread out and resting on the back of the sofa, his legs crossed, and looking at Caliban opposite with a smile.
It wasn't until the sound of Logan opening the door came that he turned around with a smile and looked at Logan with squinted eyes, "James, you are finally back. How is the mission? Everything went well."
Logan frowned, "Chris, why are you here?"
Sitting on the sofa, holding Caliban in check, was none other than Chris Lawrence!
Logan didn't expect that the Lawrence family would find this place!
You know, since he became an Uber driver, his car has been his home all year round. He rarely comes back except when he needs to provide supplies here.
But even though they were so careful, they were still discovered by the Lawrence family!
and
It's not a good thing when Chris comes to visit.
