Pass through the last layer of clouds.
The open cityscape gradually comes into view.
The foggy high-rise buildings stand tall and tall like giants, scattered at different heights. Bizarre billboards crowded together, and from time to time holographic advertising characters appeared out of thin air in the blank space.
The staggered maglev cars are gliding at high speed over the city and on the central track, wandering between buildings like flexible snakes. Around the tall buildings, there are many brilliant neon lights flashing, and from time to time, the same transparent flying cars will pass by them. Pass by.
This is a city made of steel and iron.
This is the city in heaven, the world of the rich.
Wei Sheng'an smiled lightly. He seemed always so relaxed, as if he had everything in mind.
"arrive."
Cheng Ye looked at the world and suddenly felt his own insignificance.
At the same time, Ge Jianbai stood in front of the window, and the huge floor-to-ceiling window fully revealed his figure.
He was wearing a black tuxedo with a white shirt underneath, and was holding a cup of coffee in his hand.
He stared intently at the speeding car that drifted by in front of him from time to time, with a sinister look on his face, and his fingers tapped the cup in his hand impatiently.
"Logically speaking, it should be here..."
…
"...Yes, are you scared?"
…
He slowly raised the corners of his lips and narrowed his eyes slightly, without any warmth.
Finally, he lost patience, turned around and asked the assistant behind him:
"My idiot brother, hasn't he come back yet?"
The assistant mechanically checked the information on the tablet in his hand, and then replied flatly: "There is no information, Mr. Ge."
Ge Jianbai raised his eyebrows, his face full of impatience.
He threw away the coffee in his hand, the liquid spilled all over the floor, and the cup rolled several times before stopping.
He walked towards the back room.
The assistant still stopped where he was and continued to handle the work in hand.
If you look carefully, you can find it.
The assistant's arms and half of his head have been replaced by machines.
…
[Ding: Countdown to task one: 5 days (as of 23:59 on June 6, 329. 】
[Players please pay attention to the game time. 】
[Wish players a happy game. 】
As soon as Cheng Ye stepped out of the car door and stepped on the ground, he heard the classic system prompt.
He and Wei Sheng'an looked at each other and smiled.
Sure enough, the expected countdown came.
Wei Sheng'an casually waved to the staff on the flying car, indicating that he could leave.
Then he and Cheng Ye walked on the pedestrian suspension bridge across the entire city.
There were clouds and mist under their feet, and people stepping on the clouds felt like they were in another world.
The ice around my ankles is cold, and the water vapor is full of clouds.
Wei Sheng'an walked forward, admiring the surrounding scenery, and said, "It's a pity that we can't take a stroll around such a beautiful scenery first."
Cheng Ye chuckled: "Get down to business first."
Wei Sheng'an was helpless and sighed deeply: "That's great, but you have to buy me ice cream when it's over."
This is a bargain. Didn't you agree to take me to download the copy?
Cheng Ye shook his head: "How can I trust you to form a team with you like this?"
"Ah? Eh!" Wei Sheng'an stood up straight in an instant.
There seems to be such a thing.
He smiled sheepishly and said casually: "I almost forgot that you haven't boarded my pirate ship yet."
"Ah, no, I mean I will try my best to complete the task."
Wei Sheng'an looked serious and clenched his fists in front of his chest.
Cheng Ye sighed: "Let's divide the work next. Ruskin can add unknown items to milk powder and conduct experiments on children. There should be a large medical team behind it..."
"It's the research institute." Wei Sheng'an answered: "I will go to the Ruskin headquarters later to investigate who the top medical professor is. He should also be a player."
Cheng Ye: "I am of the same faction as your elder brother."
"Yes, this is a fair game of 2vs2. There is another player whose identity I can't guess at the moment, but I think he might be an earthly person who knows everything."
"That child?" Cheng Ye thought for a moment.
"Not necessarily." Wei Sheng'an thought for a while: "From the perspective of the fairness of the game, that child is likely to be one of our clues. He was clearly placed there for us to discover. If it is a player, we can tell , he will also join us."
Cheng Ye nodded: "The fifth unknown player should be one of ours?"
Wei Sheng'an: "I think so, otherwise the game would be too unfair."
Cheng Ye nodded. The colorful neon lights around him cast shadows of varying shades on his body. His facial features blended into the mottled light, giving him an indescribable sense of elegance.
"I'm going to visit the surrounding shopping malls and the like to see how the people in heaven live, and spread some news along the way to see if I can attract a third player to join us."
"Okay. I will steal the latest information from the Ruskin Institute, so that our task is completed." Wei Sheng'an's ears are like elf ears, with pointed tips sticking out, which is a bit cute. His skin was too white, making him look even more unreal in this bizarre world.
"I suggest you don't read the information for the time being after you get it."
"Understood." Wei Sheng'an smiled: "I will make good use of these five days." To avoid being judged by the system as mission one has been completed.
Cheng Ye smiled. He always felt that there had been such a tacit understanding before. Maybe it was the two years he had forgotten that he had such a tacit understanding at work.
"Mission two should be a decisive battle. If you fight against me, you will definitely die." Wei Sheng'an looked at Cheng Ye rarely and seriously: "You have to be careful."
Cheng Ye was amused by his serious look and patted Wei Sheng'an on the shoulder: "I should tell you this."
"Let's play games, have fun." Wei Sheng'an rarely looked serious for a second, and then started laughing again.
Cheng Ye didn't know why, but a pervert with a playful smile appeared in his mind.
He paused and said, "If there is a chance, I would like to introduce someone to you."
"Who?" Wei Sheng'an widened his brown eyes.
"Let's talk about it when we have a chance." Cheng Ye felt a chill and thought for a while that it would be better if he never had the chance to do so in this life.
The two of them walked to the end of the suspension bridge. Wei Sheng'an gave Cheng Ye a secondary card and told him to swipe whatever he wanted. It wasn't his money anyway.
Then he stopped the slow-moving taxi and headed to Ruskin's headquarters.
Cheng Ye walked towards the bustling trade center, where people were coming and going. Everyone's face was filled with happy smiles that could not be faked. The children were white and tender, wearing clean and tidy clothes, and were treated tenderly.
The huge display screen is playing holographic images.
The animated character inside suddenly popped out of the screen, showing off the items in his hands, making people around him laugh.
Cheng Ye looked at the laughter and laughter here, and for some reason he thought of his mutilated daughter.
One of her arms is gone, and the other is as dry and shriveled as a branch, but she needs to make 500 gloves every day.
She is only 5 years old this year.
