A black airship soared into the sky, slowly ascending to the airspace automatically allocated by the system, and merged into the endless stream of airships.
Li Liang leaned against the porthole, overlooking the city below.
He left Zhizhi in "JIO". No monkeys made a fuss and the cabin was very quiet.
This was his first time riding an airship.
For public security reasons, Xi'an does not allow airships to provide rental services, and with Messi's financial strength, it is natural that he cannot afford to buy an airship.
In fact, most people in Xiacheng District have never flown on an airship. Just like most people don’t have money to subscribe to Activision Internet’s paid channels, many ordinary workers may only watch one channel their whole life, watching the soap opera "Hansel and Himself" all year round. "Friends".
Li Liang once thought that all industries belong to Xi'an directly or indirectly. Xi'an is fully capable of getting everyone on the airship and watching those paid channels. It is also more capable of vigorously developing education and popularizing scientific knowledge.
However, Xi'an deliberately creates a gap between the rich and the poor, advocates hard work, and always makes people feel that only money can bring a better life. At the same time, it only provides limited education, most of which is vocational skills training, like Messi. He only attended a prosthetic body repair and maintenance training class, but even so, Messi has always been proud of it.
More importantly, in many industries, Xi'an deliberately reduced the application of intelligent systems, causing most people in Xiacheng District to devote all their energy to work, unless they started a small business like Mesai, which was even more precarious.
A deep-rooted concept is engraved in the minds of most downtown people, that is, only by working hard can we obtain a better life.
Xi'an hid its true history in myths, deliberately dispelling the attribute that it was just a company composed of people, and turning it into an illusory symbol of belief, rather than a concrete organization that people can detect and overthrow.
Xi'an is like water, everywhere, as if it is a necessary condition for human survival, rather than a limitation for continued evolution.
Li Liang had thought countless times that the founder named Twin Gods portrayed by Xi'an should have a real prototype, and might even be alive.
If the current era was created by the founder of Xi'an, then it would be a shameless thing.
At this moment, Li Liang looked up at the sky that enveloped the entire Zhongjing City, and recalled that when he first arrived at the Gate of the Deep Sea and accompanied Ling Ye to receive a communication from Xi'an, the girl named Li Feifei thought that he was a member of the Xi'an Pantheon. .
Although the secret of the authority has not been figured out yet, if...if Xi'an has some kind of relationship with him, then he must completely change this era.
At this time, Old Tang's voice interrupted his thoughts: "Nirvana..."
Li Liang leaned forward and looked out of the porthole on Old Tang's side.
Not far away, the Nirvana Building stands proudly.
From this angle, he discovered that the Nirvana Building was significantly higher than its surroundings.
In the holographic image projected in front of the building, the monk sitting cross-legged still exuded a hazy light, exuding a sense of divinity. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the monk looked a little different from yesterday.
"What's wrong?" K noticed that Li Liang kept leaning forward.
"...It's nothing," Li Liang shook his head, sat back, and said to Shui Ye, "Are you sure the location for the meeting is okay?"
"Yes," Mizuno said with a smile, "That is a place used by gangs to trade. In Donggu District, we usually call it 'Friendship Department Store'. The terrain is complex, and most of the people living here are workers from nearby steel plants, and those workers themselves are also They are gang members. The location we are going to has always been managed by Yakuza and cannot be infiltrated by the Bureau of Order. As for the psychic..."
She didn't say anything further, but Li Liang knew better.
As for whether the psychic can sneak in, no one can guarantee it.
He had never heard of the 'Friendship Department Store', but he had been to Donggu District. Countless alleys criss-crossed it, some were wide enough to accommodate an airship landing, and some were so narrow that two people could pass each other head-on.
Once he went to deliver goods to the people who lived there and almost got lost inside.
This kind of terrain, coupled with the Yakuza's power, is indeed the safest location Mizuno can find.
If the enemy is the Bureau of Order or another gang, it will be absolutely foolproof.
Confronting the psychic...
Although "Fei Lie" can be a bit misleading, Li Liang also understands that psychics are not fools. It is impossible for everyone to chase a line, and a net will definitely be cast.
The only way is to fight quickly.
Half an hour later.
The airship slowly landed in a circular open space. The open space was surrounded by a circle of low buildings, and between the buildings were wide or narrow alleys, deep and rugged.
As soon as he jumped off the airship, Li Liang noticed that there were people guarding every alley. There were all kinds of gang members, including shirtless gang members with tattoos on their upper bodies. There were even more workers wearing different clothes, and there were even some people holding arms and legs. The old man with a walking stick.
A middle-aged man wearing a cheap suit on his upper body and a pair of shorts on his lower body trotted over and bowed sharply to Mizuno: "Uncle, get ready."
Shuiye leaned forward slightly and raised his hand to guide Li Liang.
The middle-aged man immediately took a step back and bowed 90 degrees to Li Liang.
Li Liang nodded and led Mizuno into an alley.
K grabbed Old Tang and followed him casually.
The reason why he was able to leave in K's arms was because Old Tang's legs were weak and he was trying to escape. Only now did he realize that it was not Li Liang who had taken refuge in Yakuza, but Yakuza who had clearly taken refuge in Li Liang.
However, after walking a few steps, Old Tang became nervous again, because he remembered that they were now in the same group.
Next, the group of people zigzag in the dark alley.
While walking, Li Liang noticed that there was no monitoring equipment at all in this area, and all the places where monitoring equipment should be installed only had traces of repeated disassembly.
The gangs are indeed unreasonable, I guess the Bureau of Order will dismantle them as soon as they install them.
Li Liang raised his head and glanced at the sky.
Presumably there must be a device on the canopy to monitor the entire city, but it's hard to say whether the psychic has permission to use it.
In the situation like yesterday, we could only put aside the fear of surveillance, but from today on, we must pay attention to concealment, especially the psychic who must be doing everything possible to find him.
A bit troublesome.
More than ten minutes later.
The group of people came to the back wall of a two-story building.
There is a door open on the back wall, and there are seven or eight people guarding it. They are all dressed in the same style, black suit tops and yellow shorts.
Li Liang estimated that this was probably a Yakuza uniform, which was quite tasteful.
"Uncle," everyone bowed together.
Shuiye bowed to Li Liang again: "Please."
The group walked through the back door, turned up the narrow stairs to the second floor, and opened the door to find a utility room.
Going out of the utility room again, Li Liang was surprised to find that this was a place similar to a tavern.
They are facing a very wide alley with many pedestrians and vehicles, but there is no way to the back from the front. They can only go around the back wall of the pub by following the way they came just now.
It can be seen that if there is danger, you can escape from behind at any time.
Sitting down in the private room opposite the utility room, Old Tang took out his bracelet and made voice calls to Brother Shui and Mengxin respectively. After a long while of chattering, he hung up and said, "Brother Shui will be here soon. "
"Okay," Li Liang nodded and gave K and Mizuno a look.
Mizuno said softly: "The entire tavern and several nearby buildings are now filled with Yakuza people, please don't worry."
With that said, she, K and several Yakuza members retreated.
moment.
Only Li Liang and Old Tang were left in the room.
Old Tang smiled dryly, sat down stiffly at the table, and poured himself and Li Liang a cup of tea each.
Li Liang glanced at him: "What are you doing, nervous? Where are your acting skills? Just act like the unruly one you did yesterday."
"This...I, I'm looking for a feeling," Old Tang began to take a deep breath.
"..."
Ten minutes later, Old Tang received a message from Brother Shui, saying that he had arrived downstairs and asked which private room he was in.
moment.
A footsteps sounded in the corridor.
Li Liang and Old Tang stood up at the same time.
A man pushed the door open and walked in. He looked at Old Tang and frowned and asked, "Why did you find such a place? Do you know that yesterday..." As the man spoke, his eyes stopped on Li Liang's face.
For a moment, the man's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "It's you!"
Li Liang was stunned.
This man’s original name was Brother Shui?
