After arriving in the slums, Lu Fuji truly returned to the place that once belonged to him. He could smell the smell of rotten vegetable leaves in the air. There were processed fish offal scattered in the sewers on the street, and the meat was chopped next to it. The meat foam hit my face from time to time.
The cries of street food, the swearing and pushing as people fight for stalls.
This is the real breath of life.
"This is the edge of the Fourth Ring Road and the outermost edge of the Third Ring Road. Most of the people living here are imbeciles who have obtained business rights, but they are not real desperadoes. Those who open underground casinos and engage in black boxing Those who trade illegally are the real ones."
Qiangwei explained calmly: "None of them have legal rights to operate, and they are all doing private transactions. Because of this, there is no guarantee, and there is nothing they can do if they encounter gangsters."
Lu Fuji understood.
Lao Zhang encountered this situation.
After the two of them arrived at the vegetable market, they obviously attracted a lot of attention.
There are also many gangsters who see a beautiful woman touching them and are ready to sneak up and take advantage of her.
The endings, without exception, were all overturned by Lu Fuji.
They went all the way to the end of the market, where there was an old elevator that led directly to a hundred meters underground, where the black market was located.
The elevator sank and shook, and the lights flickered on and off.
When the elevator door opened again, Lu Buer saw the entire underground neighborhood.
The dilapidated steel dome looks like a circuit from the old era hanging in the sky. Old kerosene lamps illuminate the dim sky. Houses stacked up like Tetris, chaotic streets, and mountains of garbage piled in the corners. There are also pedestrians coming and going.
“It was like seeing the slums of Rio de Janeiro or New Delhi.”
Lu Fuji said softly: "I have seen those places on the Internet before."
"Absolutely, but there are not just poor people gathered here, there are even high-powered species. For example, those high-powered species who took advantage of going out to fight and became deserters. If they can't survive outside, they will smuggle back through various illegal channels to work as soldiers. Black households."
Qiangwei shrugged: "The Supreme Federation doesn't want to manage this place. First of all, it's because they have too many people and their forces are intertwined. Secondly, this place can digest internal conflicts by itself, and it is also convenient for some big shots to do things. Finally, even if it is cleaned up It’s useless to stay here, there are always people who choose to take risks for the sake of profit. They either riot or regroup.”
"I understand that when many people cannot survive, they will always have various amazing potentials that people who live a comfortable life can never imagine."
Lu Fuji nodded slightly: "I didn't expect it to be the same in the Pure Land."
"The problem now is, this place is so big, where can we find the Barron?"
Qiangwei comforted the red-eyed blood lizard in her arms and frowned.
Lu Buer glanced at her suspiciously: "Are you really the judge?"
Qiangwei stared: "I just passed the internship period, what's wrong?"
"No wonder, at first glance, he doesn't have any experience."
Lu Buer spread his hands and said: "This kind of place is a mixed bag of good and bad people. If you are not familiar with everyone, you will definitely not be able to investigate. So, you need to find a reliable informant."
"How to find it?"
Qiangwei was stunned.
"Did you really pass the Inquisitor's examination?"
Lu Fuji glanced at her: "Your IQ is over 80?"
Before she could get angry, he found a shop, took out an energy bar from his pocket, and handed it over with a smile: "Brother, I'm looking for someone, a worker from the Morgan Chamber of Commerce, who was beaten yesterday by you. . His surname is Zhang, his name is Zhang Yiheng, he is a good person."
The middle-aged man looking at the shop was stunned. He quickly put the energy bar into his arms and pointed at it casually: "Then you have found the right person. I saw him being beaten with my own eyes yesterday! No, I saw this road. No? Follow this road to the end and turn right, he is arguing with someone."
Lu Fuji smiled, turned around, cast a look at the woman, and left in a swaggering manner.
Qiangwei frowned, and suddenly realized that this boy had changed into a different person since he came to the neighborhood, and he had adopted a gangster-like attitude.
Very harmonious here.
"Sir, it looks good."
Qiangwei reported into the miniature microphone: "It's a good seedling."
The sound of Damon pushing the wheelchair sounded in the earphones. Longque replied calmly: "Thousands of people have different faces. Children who become masters too early are like this. I was similar back then."
·
·
Under the old kerosene lamp, two groups of people were confronting each other in front of the stall.
"No, you must return the remaining merit tickets to me today. Do you know whose money you withheld? I am just a middleman. I offended the military master. You, a little second-rate dealer, will not die. Know how he died!" Lao Zhang sat on a chair with a bruised nose and swollen face.
He was followed by a group of young hooligans, each carrying a steel pipe.
They were all hired by him.
The boss opposite is a bald old man with a sinister face, nicknamed Fat-Headed Snake.
His subordinates are also a group of gangsters covered in tattoos, eager to fight.
"What merit ticket? Isn't that the price? I have already given you the goods you asked for, and the rest is my hard work. Everyone is doing a job that loses their head, and it is not easy."
The fat-headed snake sneered: "Are you still looking for a fight? Don't count on your military master. They are all on the front line and can't get out. How can they come here to fuck me for you? You should call him here. ? If he could come, I would put his head in my butt today!"
"What did you say?"
Lao Zhang was also angry and stood up to confront him.
"Pay back the money!"
"What money? I don't know."
"You must pay it back today!"
"Damn it, I gave you face, didn't I?"
A mouthful of thick phlegm spat onto Lao Zhang's face.
Lao Zhang was furious, but he did not dare to direct his younger brother to rush forward.
Because the money he gave was just to support the show.
If there's going to be a fight, that's another price.
The fat-headed snake also saw that this man was strong on the outside but strong on the inside, so he grabbed him by the collar and said with a ferocious smile: "If you dare to cause trouble here, I think I didn't teach you a lesson last time!"
As he gave the order, his men swarmed forward.
When Lao Zhang saw that his casserole-sized fist was about to smash down, he knew that he was going to suffer today. He was so frightened that he quickly closed his eyes. At this time, there was a faint sound of wind coming from his ears.
With a snap, the fat-headed snake's fist was caught.
"Old Zhang."
Lu Fuji smiled: "Good afternoon."
Lao Zhang opened his eyes and was obviously taken aback.
Lu Fuji's right hand exerted force, and there was a howl like a killing pig.
The fat-headed snake is also a good one. Although he has not mastered the sacred rhythm, he is already very capable among ordinary people. But at this moment, his fist was crushed alive!
He fell to his knees with a plop, and his men picked up their weapons.
However, at this moment, the fat-headed snake roared: "Presumptuous!"
The men stopped hastily and looked at each other.
The fat-headed snake is not a fool. The opponent is obviously an evolver and quite powerful.
The most important thing is that while Lu Fuji crushed his fist, he took out a revolver from his pocket, turned the magazine slightly, and put the muzzle of the gun against his head.
The fat-headed snake was a knowledgeable man and recognized that it was military supplies.
There is only one kind of person who dares to use military supplies in public.
"Master Jun! Master Jun!"
The fat-headed snake was sweating profusely: "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings."
"Didn't you say I can't come? I'm coming."
Lu Fuji directly pulled up a chair and sat down, smiled and said: "What should I say? Now let's perform a show, put your head into your butt, I'm still waiting to see."
Qiangwei burst out laughing, and the group of subordinates who had never seen a woman were stunned.
It turns out that this is the so-called privilege of high-energy species. It is not only the gap in strength, but also the natural suppression of status. Behind him is the military, even the church and the federation.
When this kind of ruffian saw him, it was as if he was looking at the living king of hell.
Of course, if the fat-headed snake knew about it, there would be an interrogator next to him.
Well, it might make you wet your pants.
The fat-headed snake's face turned green, and he said hurriedly: "Master, please don't make fun of me. If I really perform, you and your female companion will be sick and vomited, right? Ah Si! What are you doing standing there in a daze? Hurry up and give me I’ll take the money! Take more and compensate this military master!”
He trembled and said: "The military master touched me and he couldn't wash his hands? Hurry up and give him the money to wash his hands! And this worker Zhang, the medical expenses and mental damage expenses, quick, quick, quick!"
He almost growled.
As a person in the underground black market, he is simply too oily.
When the military master really came, he would have absolutely no way to confront him head-on.
The only way is to survive with a broken arm, lose money and be done with it.
Otherwise, given the illegal activities he had done, being shot on the spot would be a minor offense.
Lao Zhang was really shocked now. He knew that high-energy people had privileges, but he didn't expect that it had reached this point. The subordinates took out almost all the merit tickets in the safe.
With a total of three thousand and four merit votes, I have to say that their business is quite lucrative.
"Little deer, why are you here?"
Lao Zhang took the stack of merit tickets and handed them to him without thinking.
Lu Buer just drew a merit ticket with a face value of 500, and returned the others: "Oh, it's nothing, I came to check something with my daughter, and came to see you by the way. You can just keep the money, and from now on Once you get the management rights, go do some business, I'm very optimistic about you."
Qiangwei was furious: "You brat, what did you say?"
Lao Zhang obviously showed a moved expression. In fact, when they parted ways in the temple, he thought that he would never have any interaction with this young man again.
Unexpectedly, people are still thinking about me.
Lu Fuji did this for no reason.
First of all, Lao Zhang had helped him in the ruined church.
Secondly, Lao Zhang himself is also a talented person and can make money make money.
Subsequent promotions require significant resources.
Lao Zhang may be able to help him solve some of this problem.
It can also be considered an investment.
The fat-headed snake covered his crushed fist, almost rolling his eyes in pain. His subordinates hurried over to help him, but they didn't help because they didn't understand anything.
Now he just hopes that the military master will leave quickly and go as far as possible.
Never come back again.
Just treat him like a fart and let it go.
"Do you know this person?"
Lu Fuji took out a photo.
The photo is clearly an old photo of Barron.
"This person should be in the underground neighborhood."
Qiangwei crossed her arms and said, "If you provide clues, you will be rewarded with meritorious service."
Lao Zhang and the people he brought looked at it carefully and shook their heads.
Lu Fuji and Qiangwei looked at each other, and it seemed they had to keep looking.
At this time, the fat-headed snake also saw the photo. After thinking for a moment, his expression changed drastically: "Master Jun! Master Jun! I know him. I don't remember this person's name, but he came here to look for him half a month ago. He used to work and now works as a handyman in an orphanage!”
Lu Fuji was stunned.
With a swish sound, Qiangwei stepped over and stepped on this guy's shoulder.
"you sure?"
The fat-headed snake trembled again in pain, but gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sure there's no mistake, because this guy was bringing several children with him at the time, and it was very impressive!"
Rose turned her head.
Lu Fuji nodded slightly.
A voice sounded in their earphones.
"Get ready, close the net."

The orphanage in the underground neighborhood is actually more like a shelter.
The dilapidated and desolate courtyard was surrounded by an iron fence. There were collected garbage and scraps everywhere. The wooden townhouse was also very old. Even the roof had many holes, so there was no need to worry about it. The rain problem is barely manageable.
The thin children were sorting garbage, silent among themselves.
Young men in gray robes came out of the house and distributed bread to each child.
The atmosphere here is silent and depressing.
Despair is everywhere.
There was a snap.
Something seemed to be falling off the roof.
As soon as the young man turned around to check, someone put a gun to his head.
"Barron Moore?"
Rose pointed her revolver at the back of his head.
Barron turned his back to her and silently raised his hands.
"Has it still been found?"
He seemed to have expected it and sighed tiredly.
On the roof, Lu Fuji stood up silently and looked at this so-called orphanage.
The children who were eating bread looked up at him.
When Lu Fuji saw their eyes, he was stunned for a moment.
Because that look was too dark, not something a child could have at all.
"It seems you knew someone was coming to find you."
Qiangwei said coldly: "Then you also know what your adoptive father has done."
Barron kept raising his hands and whispered: "My adoptive father is crazy, but it has nothing to do with us. When his life span was about to reach its limit, he listened to someone's temptation and turned to believe in that terrible religion. He became beyond recognition. Ever since he became like that, he has gone crazy. My brothers were all killed by him."
"Ever since the Dongcheng Human Sculpture Murder Case, I knew something was wrong. Someone is hunting my adoptive father, and they will definitely come looking for me. I won't live long."
He paused: "I can only take the children and escape."
Qiangwei frowned and glanced at the children: "Children?"
Barron said sincerely: "My adoptive father originally wanted to adopt a group of children. I realized something was wrong with him, so I decided to secretly move the children away to prevent them from getting into trouble."
Qiangwei said coldly: "Do you know that your brother Sasha is dead?"
Barron was visibly stunned.
Qiangwei looked at this dilapidated courtyard and the innocent children. She probably felt that there was no danger here, so she put away her pistol.
Barron is not a dangerous person.
He was just afraid of being silenced, so he hid here with his children.
It seems that their life is difficult.
"Sister, do you want some bread?"
The children came up and asked obediently.
Qiangwei's heart softened and she reached out to touch their heads.
However, at this moment, Lu Buer shouted loudly:
"Be careful, they are not children!"
Because when the children stretched out their hands, Lu Fuji could see their fingers clearly.
There are calluses everywhere.
Like a worker who has worked hard for decades.
It is impossible for a child to have such thick calluses.
And their eyes are so dark.
That's...the look of an adult.
Qiangwei was startled, because the child at the front raised her head, and her expression suddenly turned ferocious. He punched her soft belly and sent her flying!
The remaining children swarmed forward and took out the daggers from their sleeves.
These people are not children.
But a dwarf!
Barron also turned around and pounced on the woman like a tiger.
For a fleeting moment, the palm of Lu Fuji's right hand beat.
He sensed the smell of dark matter!
