Bai Zhu observed for a while, confirmed that the boss was alone, and then opened the door.
"Hey, the little boss is here."
The old man drank wine happily, with a plate of sauce-flavored elbows in front of him. When he saw Baizhu, he said hello, "Have you had lunch? Didn't you eat and drink a few mouthfuls? I'll give you a pair of chopsticks."
"No."
She had been talking to the March Hare and the mechanic at the Red Queen Casino for more than four hours, and now it was time for lunch.
But she was not hungry and would go home to eat when the warning was lifted.
Bai Shu sat on the chair opposite the old man's desk. It was a bit high, so she had to tiptoe a little when she got up. "I just came to see if you were okay."
"Hey, what can happen to my old man?" The old man sighed with a smile, "A level three alarm is nothing. I even survived the pollution outbreak back then."
"The pollution outbreak..." Baizhu became a little more interested, "What were you doing before the pollution outbreak?"
"Before the pollution broke out? Then I was prosperous." The old man tutted, giving himself a thumbs up, "Working as a repairman in the inner city now, in the former capital."
"Or a repairman?"
"Don't look down on repairmen. Repairmen back then were different from what they are now. Even the psychic vision machine below was obtained at that time." The old man took a sip of wine and smacked his lips as he recalled, "At that time, there was an open arms competition. , I even won the runner-up position.”
"runner up?"
Bai Shuxin said that I was the champion at the age of sixteen, but still asked, "Which year? Who is the champion?"
"I can't remember clearly, it's a bit long ago, but I remember the championship. She was a girl in her 20s, not only talented, but also very beautiful! I lost with all my heart - hey, the Ordnance Competition is held every five years, isn't it? Do you want to sign up in August this year? Otherwise, you can participate. Submissions for the preliminary and second rounds of auditions will be made online, which is very easy."
Not necessarily held by the old man.
"It's even harder online. I'm afraid that if you don't make it to the finals, someone will maliciously cancel your account or even steal your work. Such a heavyweight and not transparent competition..." Baizhu smiled, "There are a lot of tricks behind it."
The old man was silent for a while, put a piece of elbow meat into his mouth, and muttered in a low voice: "There will still be good children who will succeed."
Bai Shu did not throw cold water on him and changed the subject: "Boss Ning came to visit you that day. Did it arouse any suspicion?"
"Even if that girl has doubts, she will just keep it to herself and won't ask any more questions."
The old man opened the skin of his elbow and saw the steam coming out. "Everyone has their own circle. I am her biological father and I have my own affairs. She will not interfere."
Bai Shu was touched in his heart. He lowered his eyes and looked at the old lines on the wooden table. His voice was not unusual: "Then what if the father might have done something wrong?"
"How can a person not do something wrong?" The old man drank and ate his elbows without thinking much after hearing this, "But if you are not too outrageous, you can't make any big mistakes."
That's right.
Bai Shu said no more and stood up to say goodbye.
She couldn't ask too many questions about Ning Zhi. If she asked too much, she would become suspicious. But if something happened, the old man would probably tell her.
"Shall I see you off?"
The old man pretended to put down his chopsticks, and then clenched them tightly before Baizhu declined, "Why don't you forget it, my legs and feet are a bit troublesome, so let's not use that little courtesy, boss."
I think you just don't want to move.
Bai Shu couldn't laugh or cry: "Okay."
"By the way, little boss, remember my three bottles of good wine." The old man exaggerated, "I dreamed about the aroma of the wine last night, which woke me up early in the morning."
The alarm announcement sounded. Bai Zhu glanced outside and spoke a little faster: "I'll bring it to you next time, but I also need your help."
"You can tell me what you're doing."
"Since you are the former owner of Dis Bar, you should have quite good connections. You should know what I am doing...so I want a way to get raw materials for the military industry. Any source of iron, tantalum, and titanium can be used, or a capable machine can make it." business."
The old man put down his chopsticks and his expression changed slightly: "This is a big road."
"I know."
"What I mean is that this is a big road, so people who want to buy or sell are not easy to mess with. There is a fixed transaction chain. If you contact me so rashly, you may be targeted."
The old man frowned, obviously disapproving, and hummed: "Aren't you still studying weapon design? Come directly to the materials... The steps are too big, be careful to pull your crotch."
Bai Shu chuckled: "To be honest, I think you are too old and I'm afraid something will happen one day and I won't be able to get the information."
"Hey, you're such a mouthful!"
The old man chewed a few bites of the elbow meat and pointed at Baizhu with his chopsticks in anger.
"I'm young and I'm used to speaking without restraint. Please forgive me."
"How dare I be angry with the little boss? First give the old man the three bottles of wine you promised me, and I will provide you with all the opportunities you want."
"I will bring it to you next time we meet, and we can have a good chat."
Bai Shu nodded slightly and returned to the basement to change his clothes before leaving through the small door.
Usually no one would come out in a hurry within ten minutes after the alarm was lifted. They would just wait and see. Bai Shu put on his hearing aid and carried his schoolbag and walked back to the door of the building. Only then did he realize that the two followers sent by the inspector general had not left yet.
He just hid in the parking shed of a nearby residence.
"You're quite brave. No one noticed that you were on top of your head."
Bai Zhu was hiding in the alley and looked up to find that there was a window of a house on the carport where the two people were hiding. The person behind the window only exposed his eyes and stared at the two people.
"It's probably the person arranged by Sister Ning... If we kill him directly, we will definitely cause trouble, but with these two people here, going out at night will be a problem."
Bai Zhu changed direction and went straight to Dis Bar.
The only impact of the alarm on this place was that it was crowded with people during the day. Loud and loud music was playing when you entered the door. The bartenders were walking among drunken and bragging hunters. Bai Shu didn't see Ning Zhi and turned to look for the bartender.
"What the hell do you mean, put your finger in my hot wine?!"
The customer is arguing with the bartender?
Bai Zhu approached quietly and heard the sound.
"My finger is injured," the bartender said with a look of resentment for working overtime. "The doctor said to keep it warm at all times."
"Keep warm? Keep warm and put it in my wine?" The hunter cursed while pouring wine into his mouth. "Why don't you just put it in your anus?!"
The bartender stared in surprise: "How do you know I usually put it in my anus?"
Hunter: “Pfft——!!”
What a vulgar joke.
Bai Shu seized the opportunity and tugged the bartender's sleeve from the front of the argument: "Where is Sister Ning?"
"Sister Ning should be in the cold storage in the back kitchen... Hey!"
Before the bartender could finish his words, he was pushed to the ground by the hunter. The people around him were disapproving and even looked at the show.
Provoking troubles, fighting, killing, and chaos are the daily routine of the Second City. This group of hunters relaxes and trades in Dis Bar, taking the sight of blood as fun, and some even cheer and applaud.
Bai Shu withdrew from the center of the chaos. This group of people did not take the fight seriously at all, and neither party was wronged.
As long as they are not dead, they will all be treated as fun people.
Just as Bai Zhu was about to turn around, someone pulled down his collar: "Whose child ran here to play?"
