I have to say that New Delhi is a magical city. Many people here have a kind of mysterious self-confidence.
Tomoko Haruta seemed to be very familiar with this place. She took Zhu Yu and others to a relatively authentic Western restaurant. The whole meal process was basically uneventful. However, after eating, a manager asked her to pay the bill. Came over and said:
"You guys are from China, right? You can't eat such authentic Western food in China, right?"
Well, just this sentence directly caused hatred.
Zhu Yu and the others were not that stingy. After looking at this person with no experience of the world with contempt, they left.
This was just a small episode and did not affect Zhu Yu's mood much. After all, I have seen too many weird things on the Internet, and it doesn’t matter if I occasionally encounter one or two in real life.
Back at the hotel in the evening, Croya came to Zhu Yu's room. The two of them planned to continue their in-depth communication, but there was a knock on the door.
It's Tomoko Haruta.
Croya was a little unhappy. Tomoko Haruta is her employer, but it cannot affect her personal life.
"I'm really sorry to disturb you." Tomoko Haruta, who had already changed into a kimono at this time, restored the humble and polite posture of Japanese women, bowed deeply to the two of them, and revealed her deep career line. .
"Just tell me if you have anything to do." She held out her hand to avoid hitting the smiling man, and it was hard for Croya to get angry.
"I hope we can discuss our next itinerary and plans after breakfast tomorrow morning."
"No problem." Croya agreed directly for Zhu Yu, "Is there anything else?"
"No more, I won't disturb you two's rest." The Son of Spring bowed deeply again and walked away in small steps.
This guy is really good.
In the end, this thought just crossed his mind and was wrapped up in Croya's affection.
After breakfast the next day, Haruta Tomoko took Zhu Yu and the others to a small conference room in the hotel.
Today Tomoko Haruta is dressed in smart attire, camouflage short-sleeves, legging overalls, her hair is tied up, and her face is rather serious.
Zhu Yu and others were a little surprised when they saw the completely different attire from yesterday.
This guy is really fickle!
When everyone arrived, she sat at the head of the table without hesitation and said:
"I called everyone here today, mainly to talk about the next itinerary and plans."
She turned on the projection, which showed a map of the southern part of Asan Country.
"We will start from New Delhi and follow the highway to the southern state of Hainan, where the former aristocrats and now a descendant of a noble family are my classmates at Waseda University. And the target point we are looking for is near there."
"How big is the range?" Zhu Yu asked in a deep voice.
This map doesn't look very big on the projection, but it is also a state of Asan after all. The circled area must be at least 100,000 square kilometers, right?
Tomoko Haruta was interrupted by Zhu Yu, and there was a flash of displeasure in her eyes. But she knew that Zhu Yu was the main force in this treasure hunt, so she didn't want to be angry. She looked down at the information at hand and said:
"The range is about one thousand square kilometers..."
Zhu Yu didn't say anything, but Croya's eyes clearly looked wrong.
Ran Jie and others also whispered to each other.
This range is really quite large.
One thousand square kilometers, the calculation is thirty-three times thirty, more than thirty kilometers in radius, then find the year of the monkey, the horse and the moon?
Although the last time I went to Belarus, the area was quite large, but at least someone had explored it before, and the terrain there was not complicated.
But Ah San’s side is different!
It's almost all jungle, which can be said to be comparable to that trip to the Amazon.
Besides, Amazon at least had someone leading the way that time and there were specific signs.
"Don't worry, everyone, this time we are not conducting a blanket search. I have a picture here with simple records and key areas to search."
Haruta Tomoko originally didn't plan to tell this matter, but now it seems that if the news is not released, these people may not be willing to accept this order.
Remuneration and other matters were in accordance with international conventions, so Zhu Yu didn't ask. Now listening to her explanation, Zhu Yu just believed it and said nothing.
"In that country, my classmates have promised to provide me with a guide. In that area, we can get the best help."
When she said this, Haruta Tomoko had a smile on her face. She felt that this was the advantage she had gained and should be able to satisfy these people.
Croya's expression actually softened a bit when she heard the news, but Zhu Yu didn't change at all.
These things are all imaginary when spoken of, and they are only real when they are seen and used.
The time for treasure hunting is not short. One of the biggest lessons Zhu Yu has learned is that at any time, the most trustworthy people are himself, Ran Jie, and the weapons in the space.
Croya had to wait in line.
It's not that I don't believe her, it's mainly because this girl is more emotional. The task she took on this time was obviously tricked by Haruta Tomoko.
Coupled with Tomoko Haruta's nationality attribute BUFF, Zhu Yu had to take precautions.
This is natural and there is no way to avoid it.
"...The main target we are looking for this time is the remains of my great-grandfather. Secondly, the treasures that that army looted from Asan Kingdom at that time."
Speaking of this, Tomoko Haruta looked sad:
"I know that those troops at that time caused some trouble to the local residents...
So I hope that most of these treasures can be used to improve the lives of the people here, and I will also establish a charity fund to compensate the descendants of the people who suffered in the war..."
After hearing this, Croya was very moved and said:
"Tomoko, you are really kind, really! I don't regret accepting this commission from you at all. Let's work together to get this done!"
Zhu Yu secretly sneered, he couldn't believe what Tomoko Haruta said!
This was just to deceive Croya, a rather idealistic member of the royal family who only knew treasure hunting.
Seeing that her words had an effect, Tomoko bowed slightly and said:
"This is what I should do. Although my great-grandfather was a staunch anti-war person, and although my grandfather and father have been doing work in this area, militarism at that time did too many evils. What we did extremely tiny..."
"Okay, let's talk about the preparations next." After another explanation, Haruta Tomoko got into the topic:
“We won’t bring anything to eat or drink, and my classmate will help us prepare it then.
There is no need for basic weapons. In that country, the power my classmates have is enough to deter anyone with bad intentions.
We just need to be prepared to hunt for treasure and equip ourselves with tools and stuff like that. You are professionals, so I won’t say more. The vehicles are also ready. We will set off in a car shortly. Two brand-new off-road vehicles are enough for us to use. "
"Then let's prepare each other." Zhu Yu looked at Haruta Tomoko and waved his hand:
"According to our own plans, we purchased some things that may be useful in the forest."
Croya and Zhu Yu stood up together and said:
"Okay, let's..."
She looked at Tomoko Haruta.
"There are large supermarkets and professional stores next to this hotel. We will set off in two hours."
After the meeting, Croya took Zhu Yu out of the hotel and went to a nearby supermarket.
"What are you going to buy?" Croya was actually ready. She mainly wanted to see what Zhu Yu bought.
"Whatever, actually I basically have it in my bag." Zhu Yu really bought it at will.
There are many local specialties here, but Zhu Yu doesn't like them very much. He just picked some portable fast food and tools to show off, and then went to the off-road equipment store next to them.
The things here made Zhu Yu a little curious and interested.
Zhu Yu bought a lot of locally produced insect repellent powder, snake medicine, protective clothing, etc.
What surprised Zhu Yu was that the shopping guide's English was not as earthy as the one in the hotel taxi. It was quite authentic and the introduction was very professional. This made Zhu Yu feel the professional difference.
Returning to the hotel room with a large bag of things, the two of them packed their things separately. Zhu Yu put some equipment into the space and took out some and put it into the backpack for show.
After waiting for a while, Croya knocked on the door and came in. Seeing Zhu Yu looking out the window idly, she hugged his waist from behind and moved her little hands restlessly.
A small move caused another minor disturbance.
But when she saw the two people leaving the hotel and arriving at the car, Tomoko Haruta clearly felt something was wrong.
She is very sensitive to certain smells!
No way, right? These two people are too... good at playing, right?
But seeing that Kroya's complexion was obviously much better, her pink skin did not have the enlarged pores of European and American white people, and she had obviously received too much moisture, this made Haruta Tomoko couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Zhu and I are riding in the same car." Croya said without hesitation.
So, Qin Fei was driving here, Zhu Yu and Croya were driving, and Ran Jie was driving over there, with Cao Dalong as the co-pilot and Tomoko Haruta behind.
Because the distance is still far and there is a navigation system that can pass directly, the cars in front and behind are not following closely.
Not long after coming out of New Delhi, the originally spacious road became narrower, and strange things appeared on the road.
A herd of cattle and sheep is normal, and the occasional donkey cart is nothing.
After all, Zhu Yu and the others had all stayed in the western part of the new province, where the sky was clear and the clouds were clear. The cattle and sheep were the local owners, and they didn't care about the cars wandering around on the road.
But it was a wilderness area dozens or hundreds of kilometers away from the city. How long had it been since we left the big city?
Everyone had seen the world, so they were not in a hurry. They just walked slowly and took a look at the customs and customs here.
There were women wearing saris carrying baskets, and there were also brown and black children playing around. Many of them didn't wear shoes, which Zhu Yu admired very much.
When he was swimming in a river when he was a child, a piece of wire got stuck in his foot. The pain and the lesson made him afraid to take off his shoes when he goes into the water now.
He just couldn't figure out why these children weren't afraid of sharp stones, splinters or the like pricking their feet when running barefoot?
Maybe it’s because time has passed and there are calluses under my feet, so I’m not afraid anymore, right?
With random thoughts in my mind, the car had already entered the boulevard.
This place is really a sea of green, with tall trees that can cover the sky and the sun. But the various bugs that come with it are really annoying.
This is when the role of insect repellent powder comes into play.
Qin Fei drove the car seriously, looking a little nervous, always on guard against children who might jump out from the roadside.
Croya held Zhu Yu's arm and whispered:
"Tomoko Haruta's classmate is named Dutt. His ancestor was indeed a prince of a country. Although the country is gone now, some power and the accumulation of his ancestors have made the family very rich and influential."
Croya played with Zhu Yu's hand and continued:
"This Dutt went to Waseda University, where he met Tomoko Haruta. According to Tomoko Haruta, Dutt pursued her, but she was busy with her studies at the time and did not agree. The two maintained a good relationship."
With that said, Croya picked up Zhu Yu's finger, put it into her mouth, and gently licked and bit it.
At this time, Zhu Yu thought of Waseda University, which was a very well-known school. Of course, Zhu Yu knew it because of a Japanese TV series that was popular in China for a period of time in the early years.
It is said that in Japan, those who can get into this university are the real top academics, but for international students, it is different. It is said that even those with very low scores can get in.
Zhu Yu only heard about it and didn't know the real situation.
He felt the itching on his fingers and looked down at Croya who was biting her fingers and looking at her with a blur in her eyes, so he patted her gently:
"Be careful, this is in the car."
Croya smiled, let go of Zhu Yu's fingers, but hugged his arms tighter.
Zhu Yu had no choice but to leave it to her.
Qin Fei, who was driving in front, seemed to know nothing and continued to drive.
Two hours later, the car stopped at a flat place. According to Haruta Tomoko, he wanted to go to a nearby town to eat curry rice. However, Zhu Yu refused. He felt that compared to the sticky curry rice, it was better to eat curry rice. It is better to eat self-heating food.
And Croya even had sex with instant noodles and refused to go. Tomoko Haruta had no choice but to stay here.
Because I saved some time for eating, when I arrived in a small city to rest in the evening, the time was half an hour earlier than originally planned.
The hotel has been booked. Although the conditions are worse than the one we stayed in the first day, the arrangement seems to have been well thought out.
"Is that classmate of yours already influential here?" Croya asked somewhat unexpectedly.
This place is still one day away from the home of Tomoko Haruta's classmate Dutt. Here, you can book a hotel in advance and arrange the corresponding meals. It can be seen that Dutt's influence is indeed relatively large.
"I didn't expect it either." Haruta Tomoko's face was a little surprised, but also a little reserved. Of course, pride was inevitable.
Her classmates gained face, and she naturally felt honored.
Although they were assigned a single room for the night, Kroya went to Zhu Yu's room, making Haruta Tomoko next door lament that she might have dark circles again tomorrow.
After all, although the hotel is in good condition, the sound insulation is really bad!
The next day, Haruta Tomoko really came out with dark circles under her eyes.
While eating breakfast, she looked at Croya and Zhu Yu with resentment, thinking to herself, you two are too tolerant, right?
What’s even more irritating is that despite this long process, I still feel in such good spirits when I wake up in the morning!
Is there any justice?
She turned to look at Ran Jie and others, intending to find some allies, but found that these people were in much better mental states than herself!
There is no sign of staying up late at all!
Could it be that he was hallucinating? Was it an auditory hallucination?
It shouldn’t be!
Kroya was quite proud. Although she had never experienced another man, she could tell that this innocent Haruta Tomoko might attract a lot of people.
If something can make her depressed, then she should be very proud of it.
After breakfast, we set off again. The road ahead is hard to describe.
Even Qin Fei, who has always been cautious and reticent, couldn't help but complain:
"This road in China must be at the level of fifteen to twenty years ago, right? Now every village is connected. The roads in my relatives' villages are neater than this! This pitfall... Boss, please be careful!"
Not only are there many potholes on the road, but there are also a lot of droppings from various animals, making it impossible to avoid them.
The smell is terrible.
"Bear with it, maybe you'll feel better when you get there." Zhu Yu is now an expert who can hold his breath for more than ten minutes at any time, and this smell really doesn't affect him.
But Croya didn't have that ability, so Zhu Yu had no choice but to comfort her like this.
The car was bumpy and bumpy, and what made people feel unexpected and reasonable was that the road was much better when walking, and then it became bumpy again.
Zhu Yu had a very big feeling: There are so many people!
But think about it, the land area is one-third that of China, but the population is about the same as that of China. How can there not be many people?
Moreover, the polarization was very serious, which made Zhu Yu associate what he saw with the information he learned on the Internet.
Some people basically just have a piece of cloth on their bodies, which can wrap up their vital parts.
Some people are colorful and colorful, and it’s hard to say whether they look good or not.
There are also people who ride on elephants. There is a shelf on top of the elephant and many things are placed on it.
There are also people sitting on something similar to the Sichuan sliding pole, with two people carrying one person.
However, the expressions of these people are basically the same. Whether it is numb or unwavering, there is basically no big emotional fluctuation.
You can hardly see the kind of crying and laughing scenes in movies.
When it was getting dark, the car stopped in front of a manor that looked very luxurious, had a strong sense of local wealth, had many traditional buildings, and mixed with some Chinese and Western architectural features.
Someone is already here to greet you.
Zhu Yu saw the young man in the middle at a glance, with the typical thick hair and beard.
This should be the Dutt.
Tomoko Haruta got out of the car first, and the two hugged each other warmly.
Zhu Yu took Croya out of the car, and Dut heard Tomoko Haruta introduce the person.
His eyes immediately fell on Croya.
That feeling... made Zhu Yu feel danger!
