After leaving Sister Lan's sushi restaurant, Chen Bin immediately returned to his rental house.
I stayed in Yunxi City for two days and was busy dealing with the company's affairs. Until now, I haven't even thought about having a meal. I'm already so hungry that my chest is touching my back.
The first thing he did when he got home, Chen Bin hurriedly opened the freezer, took out a large piece of frozen steak, and put it in warm water to thaw.
It was strange that this time he was no longer so hungry for cold and raw food. Instead, he felt a little uncomfortable smelling the smell of blood from the frozen cow head.
After the beef thawed, Chen Bin cut off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
The beef still tasted the same, but Chen Bin no longer found it delicious. Instead, he felt nauseated because of the bloody smell emanating from the frozen beef.
"what happened?"
Chen Bin didn't understand. He tried to look at the pot that had been idle for a long time. He washed all the pots and bowls first, added water to cook the skinned beef, and put it into his mouth again to chew carefully.
The cooked food that was originally difficult to swallow made him feel extremely sweet.
"Did my 'taste' come back?"
Chen Bin was greatly surprised. He looked at the raw meat on the chopping board and then at the cooked meat cooked in boiling water. After being stunned for a long time, he stuffed two pieces of beef into his mouth at the same time.
The smell of raw beef repulsed him, but cooked beef satisfied his current appetite better.
"What the hell, my eating habits have returned to normal. Is this also due to the fossil radiation?"
Chen Bin put down his chopsticks, patted his forehead and thought for a long time, and murmured to himself, "It seems that this thing is indeed what Sister Lan said, and its effect on transforming mutants is very obvious."
He remembered clearly that from the first day of mutation, he had completely fallen in love with raw meat. Even after experiencing an awakening, his eating habits did not change at all.
But in just two days, since I visited Yunxi City once, I was able to accept cooked food when I came back.
The problem could only be with that fossil.
Thinking of this, Chen Bin hurried downstairs and bought some vegetables and alcoholic drinks.
After repeated confirmations, Chen Bin finally confirmed that most of his eating habits had recovered.
Although I still love meat, I am not completely intolerant of alcohol and vegetables. I just prefer processed cooked meat.
"Haha, it's good if you can accept cooked food. At least you don't have to hide from other people every time you eat."
After figuring out the changes on his body, Chen Bin couldn't help but smile.
At this time, the phone suddenly vibrated again. Chen Bin thought it was Zheng Xin, so he quickly put down the food in his hand and took out his phone to take a look.
Surprisingly, the person who made the call was not Zheng Xin, but a guy who surprised Chen Bin.
Intelligence dealer, Liao Zhiyong.
"How could this guy even think of contacting me?"
Chen Bin was surprised, but he still pressed the answer button hesitantly and asked the other party what was going on.
A cheap laugh soon came from the other end, "Brother, I heard that you made a big fuss in Yunxi City. It was very lively, right?"
Chen Bin was stunned again and asked how the other party knew.
Liao Zhiyong curled his lips and said, "Don't forget that I specialize in intelligence. I can't even understand this kind of thing. Do I still deserve to eat this bowl of rice?"
That's true...
Chen Bin did not delve into this issue, but was surprised by the purpose of Liao Zhiyong's call.
Liao Zhiyong did not hide it, and directly reported an address, "There is something I want to confirm with you. Come over, and we will talk in detail after we meet."
But Chen Bin did not agree immediately. Instead, he smiled and said, "You, a big intelligence dealer, actually took the initiative to inquire about information from me. This is really strange."
Liao Zhiyong said, "What's so strange? The job of an intelligence dealer is to collect and classify all kinds of intelligence. When a buyer appears, I will sell the intelligence I have collected. I have to come into contact with so much information every day. , you can’t investigate everything yourself.”
"That's true, but why should I provide you with information?"
Chen Bin smiled, thinking of the last time he was extorted 500,000 yuan by Liao Zhiyong, and felt very unhappy. He directly made an offer and said, "You can ask me to meet, but I also need to charge a consulting fee. Give me 50,000 yuan, and I will Just tell you what you want to know.”
Liao Zhiyong was silent for a moment, then said with a wry smile, "You are really treacherous. I just want to confirm something with you, but the price is so expensive!"
Chen Bin retorted, "I didn't learn everything from you. Compared to your charging standards, my price is already very cheap."
"...Okay, we'll settle the matter after we meet. Hurry up!"
Liao Zhiyong reluctantly agreed and then hung up the phone in a hurry.
Chen Bin was not in a hurry anymore, and ate boiled meat at home with peace of mind, and waited until it was almost dark before going downstairs.
Zheng Xin's car was still being repaired, so Chen Bin had to ride on the small electric donkey from before, and it took him more than half an hour to arrive at the place where he had arranged to meet with Liao Zhiyong.
It was getting dark. Chen Bin parked the small electric donkey beside the road. Looking at the old building full of age in front of him, he felt a little strange and said to himself,
"This guy surnamed Liao must be too cautious. He gets nervous every time we meet. He actually chose such a remote place."
Although it felt strange, Chen Bin didn't think much about it. After all, Liao Zhiyong was the city's largest intelligence dealer and had offended many people, so it was right to be cautious.
Soon he walked into the dilapidated tube building. As soon as he entered the stairs, he noticed that the environment here was strange. Not only was it deserted, but there was no lighting equipment. It seemed that it had been idle for a long time.
"Damn, if I had known, I would have come earlier to avoid not being able to see anything after dark."
Chen Bin turned on the lighting on his mobile phone and climbed up the dark corridor until he reached the seventh floor.
As soon as we arrived, a familiar laughter came from the corridor in front of us, "Brother, you're here. I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I thought you wouldn't come."
Chen Bin raised his phone and saw Liao Zhiyong sitting on a stool, waiting for him with his legs crossed. He immediately curled his lips and said,
"Don't talk like a brother to me. I'm not that familiar with you."
Counting the previous two times, Chen Bin and Liao Zhiyong have only met three times, but this guy has a very familiar character, he talks like a brother, and he seems to be very affectionate.
The mouth of a businessman is the most unreliable, because the last time he was extorted 500,000 yuan, Chen Bin had a deep view of Liao Zhiyong and was not enthusiastic.
If the other party hadn't promised a "consultancy fee" of 50,000 yuan, he wouldn't have bothered to come to the appointment.
Liao Zhiyong should have guessed what Chen Bin was thinking, but he didn't take it seriously at all. He still maintained a profiteer's smile.
"Brother, don't be so rigid all the time. Everyone makes money by being friendly."
Chen Bin snorted, "Stop talking nonsense, what do you want to know? The ugly words are ahead. I can answer some questions, but I can't answer some questions, and if a question costs 50,000 yuan, it won't be enough to lose a cent."
"Haha, the money has been prepared for you a long time ago, and this question is relatively simple, you must know the answer."
Liao Zhiyong opened his briefcase with a smile and handed the prepared 50,000 yuan to Chen Bin.
Chen Bin took it blankly, but he was even more surprised.
Fifty thousand is not a small amount, and this guy gave it too happily. Is there something fishy hidden in it?
Chen Bin was very cautious. He took the money and counted it carefully to make sure it was not counterfeit. Then he said,
"What exactly do you want to ask?"
Liao Zhiyong smiled and said, "It's actually very simple. I know that the Pang family lost something, and I also know that you were nearby when the thing was lost, so I want to know its whereabouts."
"Sorry, I'm afraid I can't answer this question."
Chen Bin secretly said that sure enough, he threw the money back without even thinking about it.
