Chen Mo returned to Cote City.

He called the inspector.

The content is very simple.

"I'm here to kill you."

The inspector already knew about the annihilation of the mercenaries, but it was a wilderness.

It’s different from Uptown.

The inspector did not believe that Chen Mo could fight his way into the Law Enforcement Agency single-handedly.

To be on the safe side, the inspector canceled his trip in the past few days and did not even return home. He stayed at the city law enforcement office.

Lu Diping naturally noticed something strange, and asked about some problems between the inspector and Chen Mo.

One is a person with real power who plans to join his own camp from the city lord's camp, and the other is a bounty hunter who has just been won over.

Lu Diping quickly made a choice.

Chen Mo called for the second time, and Lu Diping answered the call.

"It's me, Lu Diping."

Chen Mo was silent for a few seconds.

"Are you going to get involved in this muddy water?"

"I understand the conflict between you and Inspector Zhai, and I hope we can mediate it." Lu Diping said, "There may be some misunderstanding."

"Director Lu, do you believe what you say?"

Lu Diping pondered for a moment.

"This matter ends here. No one will hold you responsible. Inspector Zhai will not trouble you again."

"Trouble me? Haha."

Chen Mo hung up the phone.

He disappeared from the world and was never heard from again.

Two weeks later…

Old Dingtou's memory deteriorated more and more.

The injury to the fierce man's shoulder blade was mostly healed, but he still couldn't exert any force.

Old Ding now needs someone to take care of him for food, drink, and diarrhea, and he won't be able to return to Kurt for a while.

After Chen Mo asked for the addresses of Meng Ren's two safe houses and left, there was no news.

I never went back to Diaocheng.

The fierce man even doubted whether Chen Mo had been killed, but after thinking about Ye Xiao's resilience in these battles, the fierce man did not believe that Ye Xiao would be killed easily.

The eternal night is getting closer.

Because the dark side of the Beta Virgo arm of the Ross galaxy will move away from the gravitational arm every 1,467 Ross days, Ross 128B will be captured by the gravity of the red dwarf and form a tidally locked [Note 1], which happens to be Cote City It's the dark side.

By then, the entire Cote City will usher in ninety-four Rose Days of eternal night.

The water is not yet freezing, but the temperature of 3 to 4 degrees Celsius combined with the cold wind makes it feel like it will be an eternity.

The fierce man drank hot coffee and watched the news.

After the Hundred Cities Alliance broke away from the system of its home planet, it set November 20th as the founding day, and saw that the founding day was approaching.

The Law Enforcement Department is working intensively to rectify public security and make preparations for the eternal night.

During the founding celebrations, senior corps leaders from the central and northern regions [Note 2] will come to Kote to deliver important speeches, which will be broadcast on television.

Mengren sensitively felt that this would be a good time for Ye Xiao to take action.

After all, it is impossible for the inspector to be absent on such an important occasion.

It's just...the top management of the Corps is here, and the security inspection must be extremely strict. How can Ye Xiao do anything? How to retreat after taking action?

Is it possible that this grandson never thought about retreating?

The fierce man stood up and paced back and forth, like an ant on a hot pot.

He was seriously injured and had yet to recover, and Old Ding needed to be taken care of again.

Damn it, a tough guy is more worrying than a young man.

Suddenly, someone slapped his thigh fiercely, causing the wound to hurt.

"Why did I forget that this young man has a natural father!"



November 18th.

The eve of Jianqing.

Corps leaders have repeatedly emphasized that everything in the meeting should be kept simple.

But the staff will naturally not let the leaders hold meetings in a small shabby room.

The simplicity that the great men pay attention to is a return to nature and is by no means shabby.

So the venue for the meeting was chosen at the Lianhu Hotel.

Honghu Hall.

The conference room can accommodate 600 people at the same time. In addition to the top brass of the corps, there are also leaders from Cote City to accompany them.

For the purpose of the meeting, many people were invited to cheer and applaud.

The Lianhu Hotel was extremely busy.

The residents were not forced to leave, which shows that the leaders are aware of the public sentiment.

The inspector responsible for verifying the identity of the residents is particularly attentive.

After repeated checks, he felt a little relieved after confirming that there was no man who threatened to kill him.

Presumably, no matter how crazy Chen Mo was, he would not take action during the Jianqing period.

The top-level security team of the Corps is not a vegetarian.

Inspector Zhai lit a cigarette and stared at the surveillance camera without daring to relax for a moment.

The guests hid in the room knowingly and ordered room service from the hotel when eating.

The only people coming and going are cleaning staff.

The last time Honghu Hall was rented out was a month ago.

There was a light layer of floating dust on the floor of the tables and chairs.

In order to leave a good impression on the senior officials of the Corps, the hotel staff decided to clean up the venue before setting up the venue on the 18th, and then clean up the venue again after the venue was set up.

The wages are not high and they have to work overtime. The cleaning staff complained a lot.

Their complaints were ignored.

Lao Gao, who was in charge of cleaning the glass, was indignant.

"I spoke up to my supervisor yesterday about everyone's break time, and I was suspended from full attendance for this month. Didn't we agree to confront the supervisor together? Why did you run away from the battle?"

The cleaning lady who was wearing a mask and was responsible for cleaning the tables and chairs sighed.

"Lao Gao, my old man is sick, and the medical expenses are enough to support him every day. I don't want to send him to Goli. For you, 200 full attendance may be nothing, but for me, it may be a day's expense. "

Several people responsible for cleaning tables and chairs agreed.

"Fuck! Are you playing with me here?" The old man threw the rag angrily: "If something happens in the future, you go to the labor union. Don't ask Sister Wang and Song from the front desk to come to my place to force me and act as a gunman for me. ? Do you think it’s Xiao Sun?”

The man called Xiao Sun, tall and wearing a mask, was lying on the ground cleaning the sand from the cracks in the boards.

When he heard someone calling him, Xiao Sun raised his head, looked at Lao Gao, and made two sign languages.

"That means Xiao Sun can't speak." Lao Gao sighed, lowered his head, and continued to clean the glass.

The cleaning lady glared at Xiao Sun and continued to pack up the tables and chairs.

"Fortunately, Xiao Sun can't speak. How about opening his mouth and not being beaten to death?" A person next to the cleaning lady winked at her.

The eldest sister raised her head proudly.

"God took care of him and made him mute."



At two o'clock in the morning, the surveillance cameras at Honghu Hall were still awake.

In order to ensure the safety of the leaders, Honghu Hall started strict monitoring one week in advance.

The law enforcement officer in the control room dozed off facing the motionless tables, chairs, and benches.

The mute Xiao Sun took off his cleaning clothes and put on a set of night clothes, hanging out of the window of Honghu Hall.

It was Chen Mo.

Just as the fierce man expected, Chen Mo knew that rushing into the law enforcement agency was the same as seeking death. After thinking about it, he decided to scare the snake, so that the inspector would not dare to take action, and then make a surprise attack when Jianqing came.

In order to make the plan perfect, Chen Mo asked someone to find out about the arrangements in the city half a month in advance, and found a black clinic to fine-tune his facial muscles, making his appearance different from before.

He also deliberately added a few birthmarks painted with waterproof paint on his face. Unless someone was very familiar with him, he would not be able to recognize him.

Then Chen Mo forged a D-class identity card and went to the Lianhu Hotel to apply for the simplest cleaning position.

Strong, dumb, docile, low salary, just to survive in the upper city.

Simply the best quality workforce.

Chen Mo successfully put on cleaning clothes.

He went out of his way to make friends with Lao Gao, who was both righteous and aggressive.

Before the leaders move in, they will definitely arrange a general cleaning.

There will be no extra expenses for cleaning, so Lao Gao stepped forward as expected.

Chen Mo needs a reason to disappear.

He had already packed up his luggage and thrown it into the lake behind the Lianhu Hotel. He also left a letter on the table, saying thank you to Lao Gao for taking care of him these days. But yesterday, when he saw Lao Gao standing up for everyone, he did not help anyone. Lao Gao had no one to talk to. He really couldn't accept this kind of company, so he chose to leave.

Chen Mo has set up a character for himself these days that is full of emotions but unable to speak. I think Lao Gao will speak for him.

Next…

Chen Mo looked out the window at several monitoring points.

It has to be said that the person who arranged the Honghu Hall surveillance was very skilled. In such a huge space, less than twenty cameras were used to cover almost all locations.

However, it is still necessary to use the word "almost".

It is impossible to completely cover the dead spots.

The Lianhu Hotel required a huge amount of surveillance. The supplier was initially determined through bidding. Chen Mo easily found out that the surveillance supplier at that time was GCC Closed Circuit Surveillance Company.

There are more than 200 types of monitors produced by GCC Company. After spending a lot of time investigating, Chen Mo finally found out which monitor was used by Honghu Hall.

This is a surveillance camera numbered OJA-9100. It uses third-generation imaging technology and has an excellent view in the dark. However, due to technical reasons, when the light is weak, the surveillance video will have very faint black edges.

After calculating the distance and coverage of the monitors from the ground, there is about a thirty centimeter blind spot of vision between the monitors.

The wire hook lock opened the window, and Chen Mo jumped into the blind spot of the surveillance camera.

For more than a week, Chen Mo calculated the path countless times and became familiar with the blind spots in the surveillance field of vision.

Moving like a ballet, Chen Mo moved along the blind spot of the surveillance field of view to the edge of the podium.

The edge of the podium is not a blind spot.

This is when you need to try your luck.

Chen Mo glanced at the monitoring position, took a deep breath, rolled on the spot, and hid under the podium.

Chen Mo's figure appeared on the screen in the monitoring room at the edge of the split screen.

However, the law enforcement officer who was responsible for watching the surveillance found no clues.

Chen Mo immediately opened the wiring opening and got in.

The podium is not made of bricks for easy disassembly. It uses a metal structure, which is spliced ​​with metal plates and frames. The inside is empty and is used to run the wires for the ambient lights under the podium. It is decorated with wooden floors and red carpets.

Except for rare occasions when stitches need to be removed, almost no one comes under the podium, and dust and cobwebs are everywhere.

Chen Mo put on a mask and dust-proof goggles, took out the hand drill in his bag, and spent about ten minutes making a small opening in front of the podium.

Drill the probe with the pinhole camera into the hole, connect it to the computer together with the wood, and you can have an unobstructed view of the outside.

In this way, Chen Mo could find the supervisor's location as soon as possible and then launch a violent attack.

Chen Mo looked at his watch.

November 19th, 2:27 am.

There are still 50 hours left before the Jianqing Conference.

[Explanation 1] Tidal locking: A celestial term that occurs when the gravity gradient causes a celestial body to always face another celestial body with the same side. For example, the same side of the moon always faces the Earth. A tidally locked object takes the same amount of time to rotate on its own axis as it does to orbit its companion. This synchronized rotation results in one hemisphere being fixedly oriented toward its partner.

[Explanation 2] Information that can be disclosed: Each city has limited resources and cannot support a large number of combat troops. It will be defenseless against the riots in the Straker ecosystem and the invasion of the home star or the anti-terrestrial alliance. For this reason, Hundreds The City Alliance has organized eight major corps by region, through crowdfunding, namely [Central and North Region: Donghuang Corps] [Gaoling Region: Sardinian Corps] [Southern Region: White Eagle Corps] [Western Sea Region: Iron-Blooded Corps] Corps] [Hedao Valley Region: Free Owl Tail Corps] [Linyuan Region: Royal Corps] [Tundra Region: Northern United Corps] [Tuwag Region: Chongsakura Corps]
