Chapter One
On the other side of the bridge is the urban area of Bancarol City.
As a provincial capital city, Bancarol City is not as prosperous as Dongcheng City, but its scale is still there.
Through the car window, you can see wide streets, neat buildings, pedestrians wearing various colorful clothes that are obviously Hesse style, and many unique ancestral temples that are unique to Hesse.
In short, compared with the slums on the other side of the bridge, this place is a completely different world, like entering heaven from hell.
At least, what I see in front of me now looks like a city, a city that one person can live in... Mo Zhi sighed in his heart.
After chatting with Peter Parker and Uncle Cat, two "natives" on the Rodinia Road, Mozhuo found out that Bancarol City in the Southern Province is located in the bend of the Huan River.
It is not a river bend in the conventional sense, but after the Huan River flows through here, the river channel forms an oval, as if it is strangely rotating around the high ground in the middle.
Outside the circle, the outer side of the Huan River is the notorious and largest slum in the entire Rodinian continent, while the inner side of the river is wrapped around the real Bancarol city in the Hesse population, which is also the so-called "Rich Zone".
This wealthy area... Looking out the window at the not-so-gorgeous urban area, I thought that this might be a standard wealthy area in Hesse. In fact, it was even worse than Hot Spring City.
As we all know, the standard of "wealth" among the Hesse people is the level of ordinary iron people in other parts of the mainland; and what the Hesse people call poverty is true poverty, which is almost another expression of beggar.
Therefore, under this self-righteous and incredible standard, even the poor people living in the Hesse slums who do not have enough to eat are still what the Hesse people call the "middle class."
This may be the worst time this word has been hacked.
.............
The train stopped, and just when Mu Zhi was packing up his things and preparing to get off, something unexpected happened.
The conductor in charge of the luxury compartment came to the door.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Unpredictable in this box?"
Peter Parker asked first like a secretary:
"I am Mr. Unpredictable's secretary. What can I do for you?"
The conductor politely explained his purpose:
“The Dongcheng City Inspectorate contacted Bancarol City Railway Station by phone and asked Mozhi to call back as soon as he arrived.”
Dongcheng City Supervision Bureau...Lu Yang? Mo Zhi was a little suspicious, but he had to be cautious and nodded to acknowledge his identity.
After all, from the moment you get off the train, the journey to the southern provinces may be dangerous at every step, so be extremely careful.
If Lu Yang contacted him at this time, something might really happen.
So, Mo Zhi got off the bus with a group of three people and a cat, went straight to the office area of the train station, and borrowed a phone to reply to Captain Lu.
On the way, after getting out of the car, Mo Zhi took out the pistol reissued by the Inspectorate and handed it to Peter Parker:
"Be careful next time."
"You no longer have the ability to contract, you should still remember how to use the pistol!"
Peter Parker looked at the Inspectorate pistol wrapped in a leather holster, and nodded solemnly:
"I'm good with a gun."
After taking the pistol and the two magazines thrown to him unexpectedly, Peter skillfully hid the holster under the arm of his windbreaker with such a deft movement.
After doing all this, Peter unexpectedly replied with a hint of gratitude in his tone:
"Thank you boss for your trust!"
With a gun, this is of course a huge amount of trust.
After all, as a work secretary, having a pistol can deliver an unexpected fatal blow at any time. If there is no mutual trust, no one will let the work secretary carry a gun.
Unexpectedly smiled and patted his shoulder:
"It's too tiring to take the train. I'll give you two days off."
"When you find a place to stay, you can continue to check the list of officials above the division level in Dongcheng City."
Um... When Peter heard this, his eyes that were originally full of gratitude turned into despair.
"How many copies are there that have not been checked?" Mo Zhi asked.
Peter swallowed:
"There are probably more than 2,000 copies. I have only read five or six hundred copies these days..."
"Keep working hard!" Mozhi expressed his encouragement as the boss.
.........
Following the conductor into the railway station office, the working secretary dutifully kicked out the employees inside, using the excuse of the new Inspector General of Bancarol City requisitioning the phone...
Unpredictable is now the head of a department. Even in Bancarol City, he is ranked among the most powerful people. Of course, he must be arrogant and domineering when doing things.
Of course, this is more for confidentiality.
The phone was connected. Mozhi had just transferred Lu Yang to Lu Yang at the front desk of the Supervisory Office opposite. After a few beeps of busy signals, the phone was quickly picked up again.
"Unpredictable little brother? I am Brother Lu!"
Lu Yang's heartless laughter came from the microphone: "Hahahahaha...brother! How about it, Brother Lu is right, the headquarters will definitely entrust you with important tasks!"
"Look, look, look, isn't this the Captain Punisher from the provincial capital city! He's already at the same level as me, brother!"
"Congratulations!"
Mu Zhi raised his eyebrows, but his tone was quite familiar and polite:
"Thank you, Brother Lu, for taking care of me! I am very grateful. I will have to rely on Brother Lu for guidance in the future!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." When Lu Yang on the phone heard what Mu Zhi said, his tone suddenly became happy and joyful, as if he could feel his smiling face through the phone line:
"Brother Mo Zhi is too polite. We are all brothers. Brother Lu, how am I qualified to point fingers at you, brother?"
Mo Zhi secretly laughed a few times:
"Brother Lu, do you have any good news to tell me? Are you in such a hurry? You even called me at the train station."
When Lu Yang on the other end of the phone heard this, his tone suddenly became more formal and he said mysteriously:
"There is something, brother, I have to inform you, brother."
The voice in the microphone turned low in vain. It may be that Lu Yang held the microphone and said in detail:
"Brother, that student of yours...Ouyang Ao!"
Hearing this, Mu Zhi couldn't help but frown and put the receiver close to his ear.
"That guy just contacted me on the phone and wanted to bribe me to get your files..."
"Is there something going on here?"
When Mu Zhi heard this, a stone fell from his heart...
That's it?
He couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
It seemed that Ouyang Ao was really doubting his identity, and... this kid unexpectedly found Lu Yang on a whim and asked Lu Yang to help retrieve the files.
Interesting...
On the other end of the phone was Lu Yang's eloquent voice:
"This is within us. It's not easy to check the files... However, this thing is kept confidential within us."
"Let's not say that he is an outsider who wants to divulge secrets. Brother, I think that you are this kid's mentor, but he wants to investigate you secretly. I immediately feel that there may be something hidden here, right?"
"Brother, of course I can't dismantle you. No, I'll call you urgently so that you can be prepared."
"This boy Ouyang Ao... really think that I am the kind of guy who sells his friends for money? Damn it, this is simply an insult to me... But then again, his price is really not low, two Ten gold dollars would like to buy me to help him do this..."
Mo Zhi almost laughed out loud.
This Lu Yang is really an interesting officialdom veteran.
Obviously he wanted to collect the money, but he was afraid that doing it behind his back would offend him. But if he refused Ouyang Ao, he would offend the provincial master and lose the money at the same time.
After some weighing, the friendship with the new star of Pandora, Mo Zhi, overcame the desire for twenty gold dollars as a favor, so I called...
This is equivalent to selling a favor to Mo Zhi invisibly, allowing Mo Zhi to decide where to go with this matter——
If Mo Zhi refuses, he can find any excuse to deal with Ouyang Ao, but Mo Zhi still owes him twenty gold dollars for his friendship;
If Mu Zhi agreed to ask him to adjust the files, how could he, as the middleman, get a share of the pie... twenty gold dollars, how could he get half of it.
It seems that I have officially entered Pandora's officialdom, and my current value exceeds twenty gold dollars... Mo Zhi cursed in his heart, and then thought happily:
I have already changed the file, just for Ouyang Ao!
Without any further delay, Mu Zhi held the phone and said in a very formal tone:
"Brother, is that all?"
"Just because of this, you made a special trip to ask me about my attitude. You really treat me like an outsider!"
Hearing this, Lu Yang on the other side of the phone fell silent, because he couldn't tell what Mu Zhi's attitude was from Mu Zhi's two polite words.
"Why not make money if you have money?"
The unpredictable tone turned casual:
"Although I have just become the captain of the Punisher, I understand these things. I don't think I am as rigid as an outstanding employee of Pandora!"
"Ouyang Ao knows the contents of my file. Give it to him, and we two brothers can earn his twenty gold dollars!"
"However, brother, I still want to thank brother for thinking of me and reminding me of this... I will keep this in mind."
"Hahahaha..." Hearing this, Lu Yang's laughter came from the microphone again:
"I saw you right, Captain Unpredictable!"
"Brother, you are really talented. You already know how to be the captain of the punisher..."
The translation of this sentence is, unpredictable, you are really on the right track.
As for the so-called superior, of course, he is using Pandora's secrets in exchange for some personal income. This is called... selling organizational information... He secretly complains without any burden.
As for the twenty gold dollars, it was an unexpected income!
Lu Yang must have understood what Mu Zhi said, "Let's earn his twenty gold dollars."
He was quite satisfied with the result. Although he gave half of it to Mo Zhi, he only spent ten gold dollars to win the friendship of Mo Zhi, the promising Pandora star. This was quite worth it...
What's more, if Lu Yang decided to make this call, he must have already made a plan to distribute the money.
If you do this, everyone will be better off...
"Okay, then I'll contact Captain Rebecca!" Lu Yang's voice came from the microphone:
"Now arrange for someone to sort out a copy of your file and give it to that boy Ouyang Ao."
After settling this matter, the two chatted a few more words on the phone. They just wanted to greet Mozhi, who had just arrived in the southern province, whether he could adapt to the climate there, etc... to show the friendship and concern of Big Brother.
Unpredictable, however, remembered what happened to Ban Carroll's previous captain and the Director of Supervision, and took the opportunity to ask Lu Yang to see if he knew anything about the situation.
"Forehead..."
Lu Yang thought for a few seconds and said:
"I don't know much about the situation there. I only know that the Inspector General died in a car bomb. Well...yes, it was probably the local secret organization that planted a time bomb on the official vehicle of the Inspectorate."
"Captain Punisher is a woman. I can't remember her name. She is from Hesse. Her name is too long... I'm not familiar with them... She seems to have had an accident during a mission last ten years. , was turned into a vegetative state by the awakened contract-breaking ability."
"Hmm..." Mo Zhi nodded and took note, but did not ask Lu Yang to help collect this information.
After all, it was just a casual question. He is the current captain, so he will naturally know these situations when he takes office.
Hanging up the phone with a happy mood, what came into view was Uncle Cat's astonishing pair of cat eyes:
"Meow"
"Unpredictable... Is this how you become captain?"
Cats have very sensitive ears, and he listened to every word of this conversation.
Unexpectedly smiled and shook his head:
"This is Pandora's officialdom. I am the current director. Of course I have to follow the rules, otherwise I will have no friends."
Seeing that Uncle Cat was still confused, as if he had discovered a new world, Mo Zhi laughed and added:
"Don't be too rigid in your behavior!"
"Keep your moral principles in your heart and let your life run wild outside!"
After saying that, he took Xiaobai's white and tender hand, winked at the work secretary who had remained silent, and the group left the office.
Of course, Peter Parker habitually took out five silver dollars and handed them to the conductor and four other employees in the office privately as a tip for doing things for the director.
This secretary, nice... Unpredictable walked behind Peter with brisk steps.
Uncle Cat, who was following behind, rolled on all fours and meowed silently:
Morality exists in the heart, and dissipation occurs outside...
I feel like I am almost forty years old, and I am still not as enlightened as this guy.
.........
Not long after.
In a wealthy area surrounded by rivers, there is a two-story Hesse-style house.
A dozen men and women wearing traditional Hesse robes sat around an old long table.
Everyone wore masks with various animal symbols on their faces, and some documents were being circulated nervously.
No one spoke in the entire venue, and the atmosphere was quite depressing. There was only the sound of paper being turned.
There were various types of firearms scattered on the tables in front of several people, and in the corner of the room, there was a row of long-barreled rifles arranged neatly.
The file was sent around a full circle and finally landed in the hands of a woman wearing a white cow-face mask at the head of the long table.
She stretched out her hands, coded the documents casually, and threw them aside.
"Pandora is taking action."
“The City of Ban Carroll’s new Inspector General arrives today.”
"The text you just saw is the unpredictable personal file of the new director obtained by comrades from the Red Bull branch in other provinces..."
She paused for a few seconds as if on purpose, waiting for everyone present to shout in unison:
"Elder White Niu is mighty!"
"Long live the Southern Tribe!"
"Huha"
Just when the White Ox female elder was about to say something, the next person wearing a gorilla mask suddenly said:
"That...elder!"
"A few of us can't read...I can't understand this file..."
When the White Ox female elder heard this, her brows behind the mask suddenly trembled...
It's hard to lead a team... The literacy rate of the Hesse people is too low. Even among the carefully selected key members, there is still a considerable proportion of illiterate people.
The hardness of Ah San is really Ah San... With such a level of education, he still thinks that the southern province will be a super province in the future, and he still wants to have a revolution and secede from the federation?
Sure enough, Ah San's self-confidence is that he is the best in the world...not the first in the universe, well, the first in the universe is Bangzi.
Epic was silent, thinking boredly.
mmp...That's enough, I really don't want to do it anymore.
I'm so unlucky that I actually traveled through time and became a Hesse, and became an elder under the southern tribe's priest.
There's nothing I can do, the priest is too strong, I can't escape at all...
With a bitter sigh in his heart, Shi Shi calmed down his emotions and said majestically in a leader's tone:
"We want to give the new president a welcome ceremony!"
The noise below subsided and once more the chorus came:
"Huha"
