On headhunting.com, the headlines that AC spent a lot of money on were forced to be removed from the shelves.
No one knew what was going on.
At nightfall, when the miners were almost gone, two police officers in suits and ties came to the White Rock Tavern.
Lao Bai held his pipe in his mouth and looked unhappy.
These two errands are obviously not the kind of people who can be manipulated at will by the temporary law enforcement department.
It is true that there are big weapons like dirty bombs, but if the Kurt Corps is really determined to deal with Lao Bai, there are countless ways to kill him.
The waiter was very polite and didn't ask the waiter to take an order. Instead, he walked to the bar and found a chair to sit down.
"Good evening, boss."
Without reaching out to hit the smiling man, Chen Mo nodded.
"Two lemonades thanks."
"do not drink?"
"No, I have to drive later."
Chen Mo took a lemon from the fresh-keeping cabinet, cut it in half, threw it into two cups and beat it.
Lao Bai stood up and came over, sitting next to the two policemen.
"What do you call it?"
"Han Xiao, director of District C of the Cote Law Enforcement Agency." The taller man introduced himself.
"Director Han, driver."
Lao Bai nodded and motioned for Chen Mo to take a glass of bourbon.
"You want to bring Xiao Mo to justice?"
"You misunderstood. Mr. Chen Mo is not a criminal. We asked him to assist in the investigation."
"Does this help with quotation marks?"
Han Xiao glanced at the driver.
The driver nodded, got down from the table and closed the door of White Stone Tavern.
Luna raised her eyebrows and was about to stop him when Lao Bai motioned for her to calm down.
"This assistance must be in quotation marks." Han Xiao took out his mobile phone.
What was playing above was the video sent by Lao Bai and Chen Mo from the other side of Feimen!
Lao Bai was silent.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not threatening you with my status as an illegal immigrant. You have experienced the war on your home planet, and you know better than me that most Russians are descendants of illegal immigrants. I am showing you this video. Let me tell you, if this information fell into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, they might make a big fuss."
Chen Mo took over.
"Be honest, give me whatever you want."
"It's refreshing enough." Han Xiao took the lemonade from Chen Mo: "Director Lu wants to hire Mr. Chen Mo as a special agent of the Law Enforcement Agency. There is no establishment, and the salary will be settled according to the highest standard."
"Well, this is what you want, so what can you give me?"
"I wonder if Mr. Chen Mo has paid attention to the information on Headhunting.com, but the information released by AC Development Company has been forcibly removed. As long as you accept the employment, we can provide you with all conveniences within the rules."
"for example?"
"For example, I don't hold you responsible for taking away Zheng Qiuhong, I don't care about the dirty bomb under the tavern, and I don't ask you how you got the money."
Chen Mo shook his head.
"I don't like working for law enforcement."
"You don't need to work. We will give you tasks from time to time, and we will also pay you accordingly. To put it bluntly, it is still the job of a bounty hunter."
Chen Mo sneered.
"Like working for the inspector this time?"
"Of course it's different."
"That means you know the inspection arrangements."
Only then did Han Xiao realize that he had been tricked. He was speechless for a moment, and finally nodded after a long time.
"Well, the higher-ups only found out about it later."
"Then how can I believe that I won't become an outcast again?"
"We need to trust each other."
"What trust do I have with you?"
"It makes sense that if the same thing happens to me, I can no longer trust the Law Enforcement Agency." Han Xiao was honest enough: "Then we can only increase the money."
"I hope you can give me a price that satisfies me."
"Of course."
The lemonade bottomed out and Han Xiao stood up.
He waved towards Huang Liang.
"Meng Rener, what a coincidence, you are here too?"
The fierce man was a little embarrassed, so he said hello for a moment and didn't say hello at all.
The people in the White Stone Tavern looked at the fierce man with unkind eyes.
"Don't get me wrong, Director Han and I just know each other, and I have never been entrusted to deceive you into trusting me or anything like that!" Meng Ren quickly explained.
It's okay not to explain it, but this explanation makes it even worse.
After getting along for a day, he knew that there was nothing wrong with White Rock Tavern.
Even the seemingly frail Kang Jiajia had ten or eight lives on his hands.
"Hahaha, kid, why are you panicking?" Lao Bai smiled and helped the fierce man out.
Han Xiao also noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere and said, "You have to come with me. Chen Mo is back. Some of your subjective assumptions about the case still need to be verified."
The fierce man hurriedly agreed.
Lao Bai didn't embarrass him, and even threw him a pistol that he had taken from a previous bounty hunter.
"Little thin man, I hope you can stand by Xiao Mo whether it's for money or not."
The fierce man hesitated and nodded solemnly.
Lao Bai looked at Chen Mo and Zheng Qiuhong who walked out silently from behind the bar and sighed.
He couldn't persuade Chen Mo to follow the same path as him.
One's background determines one's position. Lao Bai does not want to go against Chen Mo's wishes and force him to become a powerful underworld boss.
A child's happiness is always more important than parents' expectations.
"Girl, if Chen Mo wants to bully you, tell me at any time and see if I don't smash his head."
Lao Bai lovingly touched Zheng Qiuhong's head.
Zheng Qiuhong nodded hurriedly.
Lao Bai looked at Chen Mo.
"Little bastard, if you miss home, you can come back anytime, no matter what trouble you have... I can still hold on for another ten or eight years with my old bones."
Chen Mo nodded and patted Lao Bai on the back.
"Old man, let's go."
"get out."
…
Chen Mo returned to the Law Enforcement Agency to assist in the investigation, and all the transcripts and oral statements were immediately placed on Lu Diping's desk.
Lu Diping looked at the record and frowned.
He thought of the Queen of Eridium Ore, who was known as the legend in the industry, who also appeared out of nowhere and was extremely violent.
After reading all the materials, it was already past my off-duty time before I knew it.
Lu Diping went downstairs, and the driver sent the chief back home.
The chief's home is in Shangcheng District.
Unlike ordinary wealthy businessmen and politicians, every director of the Law Enforcement Agency will live in the family building of the Law Enforcement Agency.
It is brightly lit and patrolled 24 hours a day, making it the safest place besides the Corps.
The house has a large flat-floor layout, with one household per floor.
Lu Diping returned home, put on his slippers, and rang the bell on the entrance door.
After half a day, a girl in pajamas with messy hair came out.
"Huh? Are you coming back so early today?"
"Lu Jiarui! Look at what you look like. How can you be so sloppy when there are guests at home?" Lu Diping was furious when he looked at his girl.
A good student behaves like an idle member of society every day.
"Where's Xiao Su?"
"It's in the house." Lu Jiarui yawned: "I'll talk to you after I finish the game."
Lu Jiarui turned back to the house and called out a girl wearing her clothes.
The girl's clothes were loose and her bones were obviously not yet fully grown.
It was Su Lei.
Seeing Lu Diping coming back, Su Lei couldn't hide the look of concern in her eyes.
She is very concerned about Chen Mo's safety.
"Don't worry, Chen Mo returned to Cote City and is under the protection of the Law Enforcement Agency." Lu Diping patted the information on the entrance: "Your big brother is really powerful."
Su Lei breathed a sigh of relief and finally smiled.
…
Back in Cote City, Mengren took Zheng Qiuhong to hide in the safe house.
It is easy to hide from an open gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.
I wonder if AC has a back-up plan. Zheng Qiuhong is not yet old enough to live an aboveboard life.
On the other side, Chen Mo was still in the Law Enforcement Agency.
The entire history of the case has been understood in detail, but according to the rules, three groups of people repeatedly asked about the details of the case.
Chen Mo said he was tired of it, but fortunately he had enough Hasselblad cigarettes, so it was still acceptable.
After an old law enforcement officer repeatedly asked Chen Mo about the details of the gunfight, he couldn't help but ask: "Kid, how did you think of using fake death to deceive those militants? They have guns in their hands, and they are all thugs."
"If you don't fight, you will definitely die. Fight for a chance of survival." Chen Mo returned.
"Sure enough, a hero comes from a boy."
The old law enforcement officer sighed.
The door to the interrogation office was pushed open, and the person who came was Han Xiao, a girl with glasses.
The girl with glasses is tall, has willow-leaf eyebrows and peach-blossom eyes, and is very charming.
"Teacher Zhang, a psychology expert, was specially invited by the director to provide you with psychological counseling." Han Xiao introduced.
"Counseling?"
"Yeah, PTSD counseling."
"Have not heard."
"It's post-traumatic stress disorder. For example, I always think of the face of the deceased, have nightmares and so on." The girl with glasses sat down opposite Chen Mo: "My name is Zhang Dantong, nice to meet you."
"Chen Mo, it's nice to meet you too, but I don't need any tutoring." Chen Mo thought for a while and then added: "Please give me a business card. My friend may need it."
"certainly."
Zhang Dantong looked at Han Xiao.
Han Xiao nodded.
Zhang Dantong smiled, handed Chen Mo a business card and left the interrogation room.
There are still a lot of tedious processes to go through next.
I ate lunch boxes and drank a lot of tea all day long.
It wasn't until the Law Enforcement Agency got off work that Chen Mo was finally free.
Han Xiao came to Chen Mo personally to thank him for his cooperation, and Chen Mo confiscated the one thousand yuan compensation he was going to give Chen Mo.
At the door of the Law Enforcement Department, a fierce man drove an off-road vehicle to pick up Chen Mo.
"Get in the car, young master."
"What did you call me?"
"With such a fierce old man, there's nothing wrong with calling you Young Master Ju."
"..." Chen Mo got in the car and was silent for a while: "I'm in a good mood, how about we compare notes today?"
"no."
After the fierce man learned about Chen Mo's abilities, he completely lost interest in having a fight.
Can being beaten unilaterally be considered a sparring match? ?
"where to?"
"Area C, Apartment No. 9, Oak Lane."
That is Chen Mo’s base camp.
The fierce man entered the house and was puzzled by Chen Mo's simple and shabby home decoration.
"I'm not telling you, brother, where's your money?"
"Isn't it all up to you?"
"Shit." Meng Ren said with a look of disdain: "I have calculated the data of your headhunting website. With the ID of Guang Ye Xiao, the commission earned in three years is not more than 3 million but also 2 million... This does not include what you did. Private life. You said you live in a shabby house, drive a classic car, and don’t gamble, whoring, or smoke. Where did you spend the money? "
"Want to know?" Chen Mo looked sideways.
"Sure!"
"We have the same hobbies."
"What?"
"Safe house."
The fierce man suddenly realized.
No wonder looking at Chen Mo being so poor, it turns out there is a safe house.
Safe houses can be big or small. A rental house worth RMB 300 a month can be used as a safe house, or a riot-proof house worth over RMB 100,000 can be used as a safe house.
To be honest, there is no limit to how much money can be spent.
"I remembered!" Mengren patted his leg: "You said my safe house was just okay! Your safe house must be much better than mine! Where is your safe house? Take me to see it!"
"Without."
"Hey, why are you so stingy!"
"Does anyone know the location and it's called a safe house?"
"You know the location of my safe house."
Chen Mo smiled.
"So it's time to change your safe house."
"You!" The fierce man was furious.
After simply picking up some supplies, the two drove to Bolt Alley again.
Small powder rooms with neon lights hanging all over the street are already open for business.
Girls selling meat stand in alleys in all their glory, soliciting customers.
"Is this where you end up?!"
"Um."
"I take back what I said about you not going whoring."
"I really don't do it."
"and you…"
"The red light district is a mixed bag of people and has a large flow of people. Not using electronic products is almost like being invisible."
The fierce man was thoughtful.
"Is it appropriate to bring Zheng Qiuhong here?"
"Inappropriate, where is she now?"
"My safe house."
"I know, I'll pick her up later."
"Where to go?"
"Don't ask, I'm afraid you'll be sad if you know."
"You want to check out a room?"
"No, go back to my safe house."
"... Damn, you are not loyal, you value sex over friends."
Huang Liang's nose is not a nose and eyes are not eyes.
Send the fierce man away.
Chen Mo sat on the camp bed and was lost in thought.
The wire connecting the DPA in series was still there, but the other bed was empty.
…
Kurt opened the flying door to his home planet, but only a small spacecraft was transmitted.
A man wearing a simple gray and white outfit hurriedly came down the spiral staircase of the spaceship with a small suitcase in his hand.
The Hex staff who had been waiting here swarmed over and surrounded the man.
It was Chu Zihan.
"Where's the Leilei people?"
"It's very safe at General Lu's house. But we encountered a lot of troubles."
Handing the suitcase to the staff next to him, Chu Zihan nodded.
"explain."
"AC sued us, saying that we had a technology monopoly, and several old shareholders chose to sell their original Hex shares under the instigation of others. In addition, there are always ruffians in our mine to cause trouble... Although there are still It can operate normally, but two miners have been injured in the past two days and are seeking compensation. The website was also attacked by hackers..."
"A bunch of trash." Chu Zihan squinted: "Mr. Su has only been away for a few days, and the company has such a big problem?"
"This...protect everyone over there..."
"Don't blame each other. I don't want to target anyone. Everyone here is trash." Chu Zihan showed no mercy: "Have you figured out who kidnapped Ms. Su Lei? AC and us are old enemies. We need a legal team." Slowly fight them! Once the shareholders' shares come out, they will be recovered with company funds, and all of them will become Mr. Su's entrusted shares. As for the open-pit mine, go directly to the local temporary law enforcement office. If the temporary law enforcement office cannot be used, go to the Shangcheng Law Enforcement Office. , if it doesn’t work at the Shangcheng Law Enforcement Office, go to the City Law Enforcement General Office, something like this has to be postponed until I come back.”
"Mr. Chu, calm down, this way."
The bodyguard opened the way and took Chu Zihan into the car.
On the way to the family building of the Law Enforcement Agency, Chu Zihan took a tablet and solved things one by one.
There is a time difference of five hours and forty-seven minutes in the electromagnetic wave transmission between the home star and the Ross star [Note 1]. Real-time communication is still not possible with current communication methods.
Regarding the time difference, how many people report good news but not bad news, only to reveal the matter when they see that they cannot hide it?
Chu Zihan sighed.
"Old Su, the company can't do without you."
[Explanation 1] The propagation speed of electromagnetic waves in vacuum is equal to the speed of light. The parent star and Ross Star are ten light years away. According to normal speed, it will take more than ten years to transmit electromagnetic signals back. This problem was solved by space flying gate technology, but due to problems with intermediate transmitters and signal relays, a time difference of five hours and 47 minutes resulted.
