"Commissioner Jin, don't you plan to meet Xiao Jinzi? We have traveled thousands of miles and come back just for your safety."
Hearing this somewhat unexpected reply, Sister R was immediately confused.
"I'm sorry. Commissioner Kim said thank you for your kindness, but I'm very sorry."
The man snorted coldly and replied.
"Where is Commissioner Kim? Please put him on the phone."
Sister R frowned slightly, something was a little abnormal and he immediately realized something was wrong.
"I think you may not know me very well. With all due respect, although this door is very strong, it cannot stop me. Do you understand what I say?"
Sister R looked at the monitoring equipment on the door and said.
"Then you can try. I don't believe you can stay safe in the flames."
The other end of the communicator also refused to give in.
A smile appeared on Sister R's face. Facing the camera, she pulled off the brittle tactical uniform that had been baked by the high temperature. The metal body was instantly exposed. Then, she pointed the electromagnetic gun in her hand at the door. The energy thunder ball immediately began to gather in the direction.
Not to mention how surprised the people in the command post were now, by the time they reacted, Sister R's electromagnetic gun had already condensed a lightning ball the size of a table tennis ball.
Before the flames could be sprayed, Sister R aimed a shot at the door.
With just one shot, the door that could still be seen completely disappeared. It really seemed to disappear out of thin air. But then, Sister R was helpless again, because after this door was destroyed by herself, there was actually another door that was exactly the same, but she didn't Don't worry, I just need to do it again.
"Stop! What do you want?!"
Faced with such a fierce attack, the communicator immediately became anxious.
The woman in front of me is obviously a robot, and it is also a very powerful model. If such a robot is placed outside, it will definitely be a Silver BOSS-level existence. It is not something that their current defense system can fight against. What's more important is that if.
"I want to see Commissioner Kim"
Now that the action has been taken and Party B is in a strong position, Sister R is no longer as polite as she was before.
"But we can't confirm whether you carry viruses from outside."
After a while, the other end of the communicator said.
"I need to let Commissioner Kim speak to Xiao Jinzi and the others."
Regarding the virus, Sister R really has no good solution. No one knows whether she is carrying the virus. It would not be a good thing to enter all the way. After all, the current command post is still in the green state. The condition must be sterile, and it seemed that there was enough food and clothing, so she could only do the next best thing and let Xiao Jinzi get in touch with his father first.
"That's fine, but...how do they communicate?"
asked the other end of the communicator.
"Just like how we communicate"
While talking, Sister R has already started to use her watch to connect to Ma Tao and the others.
At this moment, it is basically concluded that Xiao Jinzi’s parents have probably been controlled. After all, Commissioner Jin is only in charge of the executive affairs of Seoul. Although he is a high-level official, he does not have military power. Faced with this situation, he can only submit to others and be forced to do so. It's also normal to control.
"Sister, how's it going? Have you found Xiao Jinzi and An Ruo's parents?"
As soon as the connection was established, Ma Tao's voice asked first.
"Any news about my dad?"
Soon, Xiao Jinzi's voice came from the watch.
Sister R turned the sound of her watch to the maximum to ensure that everyone could hear it before continuing, "I have found the parents of Xiao Jinzi and An Ruo. They are all safe now."
Thinking that An Ruo's parents had already taken the ginseng medicine, there shouldn't be any big problem.
"You brat! Who asked you to come back! It's so dangerous here, are you willing to die?"
The voice of Xiao Jinzi's father came through the communicator again, and it seemed that he had been temporarily restored to freedom.
"Dad! Where is my mother? Are you all okay?"
Although he was scolding himself, Xiao Jinzi did not feel wronged or dissatisfied at all, and he almost shed tears of joy.
The previous worries did not come true, which must be said to be God's blessing.
"We're all fine! You don't have to worry about us."
Although Xiao Jinzi's father said this, there was still a hint of helplessness in his voice. However, because Ma Tao and Xiao Jinzi did not understand the current situation, they did not hear the difference in his tone.
"Commissioner Kim, how did Seoul become like this? What happened?"
Ma Tao's voice came through the watch.
"It's hard to explain in words, but to be honest, we don't know exactly what happened. This terrible plague swept through the whole city in an instant, and it spread so fast that there was no chance to control it. Alas~"
A long sigh drained away the helplessness Xiao Jinzi's father felt at this moment.
As a member of the Seoul City Committee, he is mainly responsible for regular work, that is, responsible for the life and operation of the entire city. But if something like this happens, it has to be said that it is a dereliction of duty. How can this not make him feel uncomfortable.
"Can't this plague be cured? Can we just wait for death?"
Through the communication watch, Ma Tao asked again.
"It's possible, but we need a lot of medicines, that is, antibiotics, but now..."
After saying this, Commissioner Jin sighed again.
Almost everyone knows how precious medicines are. Not to mention antibiotics, even those medicines used to treat headaches and colds are good things. When talking about the huge number of medicines needed to control the spread of the plague in Seoul, everyone knows this. They all know it well.
"drug?"
Ma Tao also knows how difficult this matter is to handle. A small number of medicines are fine, but once the quantity increases, everything will be difficult to handle. It is simply impossible.
"That's right, large quantities of drugs like this can only be found on the black market."
Xiao Jinzi’s father said again.
black market?
drug?
Speaking of the black market, Ma Tao, who was sitting in Tank No. 1, suddenly remembered a person, a person he had just met some time ago. It happened that this person's home happened to be in Seoul, that was Qian Santai.
Thinking of Qian Santai, Ma Tao's eyes suddenly lit up. This kind of search for supplies was most suitable for those in the caravan. It couldn't be more appropriate.
“Commissioner Kim, if I could find large quantities of antibiotics, would the plague in Seoul be eradicated?”
Thinking of this, Ma Tao immediately asked.
"you?"
Over there, Xiao Jinzi's father's tone was obviously questioning.
"Yes, I have a way to get the medicine."
Ma Tao replied firmly with his watch.
"If there are enough medicines, I am 80% sure to control this plague."
At this time, Jinbang's eyes were filled with an unwillingness to admit defeat, being held up by two armed garrison troops at the command post.
"Okay! Give me two days!"
After saying that, Ma Tao directly exited the channel connection, moving so quickly that he didn't leave any chance for others.
Because Sister R established a shared connection with everyone through Ma Tao, when Ma Tao quit, everyone's channels were also disconnected.
Silence returned to the passage. Sister R waited for a long time but no one answered her in the communicator. In the end, she had no choice but to leave temporarily. After all, she didn't want to really break in. Although these defensive skills were It may not be a threat to you, but it can still block the invasion of a large number of Black Death viruses. If you are completely destroyed today, what if someone infected with the Black Death breaks in and the command post loses its defense capabilities? Just like a girl without clothes and no defense, Xiao Jinzi's father and the others are likely to be infected by the plague. The virus does not distinguish between friend and foe.
In the command post, Captain Wei, who was holding a pistol, also interrupted their connection and looked at Jinbang, who was controlled by his men, with uncertain eyes.
Because this sudden plague was too swift, terrifying, and very wide-ranging, it directly claimed the lives of many high-level officials in Seoul. By now, they may have become unrecognizable and putrid corpses in some corners.
The Black Death almost destroyed the entire economy, culture and strength of Seoul, but it also helped many people, such as the people in this command post at the moment.
The total number of company leaders and guards who were originally in the command post was nearly two hundred, but now, there are less than forty people left in the entire command post, and three-quarters of them are dead. As a result, the number of core members in Seoul has shrunk dramatically.
Nowadays, the one with the highest official position is the regiment leader surnamed Wei whom Ma Tao had met before. The rest have died, forming a dominant family. Xiao Jinzi's father is not much different from his rank, but Jinzi After all, the committee members manage the daily operations of the town and have no military power. In other words, they do not have people and guns in their hands, so they are not a threat to Captain Wei at all, but it is different now.
When Sister R had just revealed her identity, Captain Wei realized that they could not be allowed to meet. After all, Ma Tao left a deep enough impression on him last time and was fierce enough. He did not want to experience the same death together a second time. For him now, his life is precious, and his beautiful life has just begun, and he cannot die at all, so when Commissioner Kim was about to open the door, he immediately let his men control him and his wife, here , he is the one with the most say.
I thought it was just an ordinary call, but I didn't expect that the guy named Ma Tao actually said that he could find medicines. It was precisely because of this that Captain Wei was so angry.
The man surnamed Wei was really scared. He was afraid that if Ma Tao really got those medicines, Commissioner Jin could quickly win over people's hearts. By then, all the soldiers and residents would know that it was Jin Bang and that Commissioner Jin had saved them, so they would naturally support him. Under this situation, there is no way for me to compete with him. If I don't seize the opportunity this time, I will probably be stepped on for the rest of my life. The best way is to kill him now, but It is easy to kill the couple, but what about the precious medicines that Ma Tao is about to bring? Without those medicines, the huge garrison stationed outside the city could only struggle dozens of kilometers away. Even so, people continued to die every day. These were all the support of one's own strength. In a Almost everyone here heard the phone call between Ma Tao and Commissioner Jin just now. If he kills Commissioner Jin and his wife, let alone his subordinates, if one of these guards informs Ma Tao, the consequences will be Unexpectedly, he had cut off the last way of survival for all those who had suffered from the Black Death, and inevitably became the enemy of those people. This was not a small number. Ma Tao only needed to As soon as this incident was announced, those guys who were trying to survive were unable to do anything, and all of them wanted to eat themselves alive to satisfy their hatred.
Captain Wei, who was holding a pistol, and Jin Bang's eyes met in mid-air. It seemed as if a fierce spark burst out in the air. Both of them were very aware of the current situation, especially Jin Bang, Xiao Jinzi's father.
Being able to become a member of the Seoul Committee is not just about how flexible and fast the mind works. As soon as Ma Tao said those words, he immediately realized that he had the strength to make a comeback. He could sit in this position for a long time. Now, he clearly understands how uncomfortable it feels to be subordinate to others, especially now that he is being held at gunpoint and his spouse is also being controlled. This makes him even more irritated. But at the same time, he also understands that at this time, he In order to survive, you must know how to be patient. Only by being patient can you wait for the right opportunity, like now.
Recalling what Ma Tao and the others secretly said to him when they left Seoul, he didn't expect that they would become his trump card so early.
In this way, he temporarily had a bargaining chip with which he could challenge the Wei man. He was no longer a piece of fish and meat on the chopping board. Correspondingly, the right to speak that had been lost for many days returned to him.
“Commissioner Kim’s good son is really promising.”
After thinking about it, Captain Wei slowly put down the weapon in his hand, suddenly put on his usual smile and began to talk politely to the veteran in front of him.
"No, it's just that Quanzi followed the right person, and they were lucky enough."
Jin Bang also smiled, then turned to look at the soldiers behind him who were still pointing guns at him, and then looked at his wife who was being controlled.
Captain Wei waved his hand, pointed at the soldiers on the gold list, looked at each other and quickly put down their weapons, and those who controlled Commissioner Jin's wife also let go of their hands at the same time.
"Lao Jin..."
As soon as she was released, Commissioner Kim's wife hurried to Kim Bang's side, but she did not choose to hide behind the man, but stood side by side with her husband.
This woman who has also experienced strong winds and waves has long been accustomed to these intrigues, so she can face danger calmly. From the beginning to the end, she never interfered with her man's decision because she was caught. She is smart, calm, and capable. A necessary condition for becoming a married woman on the gold list.
"If nothing happens, I'm going back to my room."
Glancing at his wife, Commissioner Jin nodded slightly, then looked at Captain Wei and said.
"Please do"
Captain Wei made an invitation gesture and signaled.
Jin Bang didn't want to say anything, so he turned around and left with his only wife.
"Damn it... Let's see how long you can continue to be arrogant. Sooner or later you will fall into my hands."
Watching Commissioner Jin and his wife walking further and further away, the stern look in Captain Wei's eyes was clearly revealed.
In fact, he is in a very contradictory mood now. He wants his garrison to recover as soon as possible, and he also wants Seoul to regain its previous prosperity, but he just doesn't want all of this to be attributed to Jin.
Similarly, Commissioner Jin is also very aware of the current situation. Let’s not talk about whether Ma Tao and the others can bring back enough medicine to control the plague. Just looking at the current situation, he is alone and in danger. , in the event that the surnamed Wei makes a desperate move, he will have no power to resist. At this point, everything is no longer decided by him and Wei Tuan. The final result depends on whether Ma Tao and others can find it. In the case of medicines, no one knows whether they are a life-saving straw after a drought or a huge turning point that can turn things around.
Speaking of Ma Tao here, Ma Tao has been full of energy since he thought about Qian Santai. Until now, Ma Tao has never thought of taking the initiative to contact Qian Santai, so that now he suddenly thinks of this person, he is a little at a loss. Don't know where to look for this guy.
Ma Tao immediately thought of Qian Santai's base camp in Luoke Town, but when he thought of this place, Ma Tao's heart trembled. It was the place where he was sad, and it was also the place of Su Lanyu's loss. Ma Tao has always been Everyone wanted to forget everything that happened in that place, but it lingered like a nightmare, but now, Ma Tao had to face it again.
Originally, Ma Tao planned to use the fax machine to reply to Luo Ke alone, but Gao Han's words awakened Ma Tao.
When Ma Tao announced that he had decided to go to Qian Santai's base camp in Rock to look for him alone, Gao Han asked very strangely, "Don't you have a separate channel with Qian Santai? Remember that you both established it at the beginning?" ah?"
The words woke up the dreamer. Ma Tao had actually left a connection with Qian Santai's watch, but he never activated it because it was not needed. He was even more fortunate that the one his sister took away when she went to Seoul was not his own. This watch, otherwise he would really have to go back to Roque.
After searching for a long time in the history of the communication watch (S scanner), Ma Tao finally connected to Qian Santai's channel. However, he didn't know that this mysterious businessman was busy all day long. What? Ma Tao connected to him twice, but no one answered. Just when Ma Tao was about to give up, Qian Santai's hearty voice came over there.
"A rare visitor? Brother Ma, you are finally willing to establish a link with me. I have been waiting so hard for this link to talk."
Surprises always like to appear when you are about to give up and despair. Qian Santai's reply undoubtedly means that what Ma Tao thinks is half done.
"Boss Qian, I won't say any more polite words. I'm looking for you this time because I need your help with something urgent. You must help me with this matter."
After getting through Qian Santai, Ma Tao's face lit up, but he didn't feel happy for a long time before he became hesitant again.
If he wanted to control the Black Death plague in Seoul, the quantity of medicines was definitely not a small amount. He was very worried about Boss Qian's ability to find such a large amount of medicines for himself.
"What happened? Do you still need to say these words to me? Just say, is it about money or people?"
Listening to Ma Tao's cautious tone, Boss Qian stopped joking and asked straight to the point.
"Neither of these two, I need medicine, lots and lots of medicine"
Ma Tao looked at Xiao Jinzi, Gao Han and Su Lanyu who were listening to the call.
"Medicine? Ginseng pills? How much do you want?"
Qian Santai was stunned for a moment, then asked.
"Oh~ Qian Santai, we don't want ginseng pills. We can afford those things. There are many of them. We just want medicine. What kind of medicine can be used for direct treatment! No, it is life-saving medicine, not the medicine you mentioned, oops ! This is not clear! Anyway, the medicine we want and the medicine you mentioned are two kinds of medicine, do you understand? "
Xiao Jinzi couldn't wait any longer, so he spoke directly to the side. This guy was not polite when he spoke. He directly called Qian Santai's name and didn't care about it at all. But Xiao Jinzi was worried and anxious now. There was something he said, it was causing trouble. If you don't care about yourself, you will be confused. He is at his best now. The more he talks, the more anxious he becomes, and the more he talks, the more confused he becomes. In the end, he is so anxious that he cannot explain clearly.
"what happened?"
Qian Santai was confused by Xiao Jinzi's story-telling allegro. After listening to it for a long time, he still didn't understand what Xiao Jinzi was talking about. But one thing he could confirm was that Ma Tao and the others wanted to medicine.
"Okay, let me tell you."
Ma Tao stretched out his hand to let Xiao Jinzi calm down for a while, then gestured to An Ruo beside him, and then said, "Boss Qian, we are in Seoul now..."
"Wait a minute! Where did you say you are now?"
As soon as Ma Tao said that he was in Seoul, Qian Santai interrupted him instantly.
"Are we in Seoul?"
Ma Tao looked at the information on his watch and confirmed again that he and others were indeed in an area more than thirty kilometers east of Seoul.
"The medicine you need is antibiotics?"
After waiting for a short while, Qian Santai's movements came from the watch again, but this time it sounded like he was obviously suppressed in excitement.
"Yes! It's antibiotics! I forgot this word in a hurry. We need a lot of them, huh? How do you know we need antibiotics?"
Xiao Jinzi started to interrupt again, but the question this kid asked happened to be what Ma Tao also wanted to know, so he didn't stop him.
Unexpectedly, Qian Santai burst into laughter after listening to Xiao Jinzi's words. All that came from the communication watch with the external broadcast function was Boss Qian's laughter, but Ma Tao could hear it from the laughter, Boss Qian was obviously very happy.
"Don't be anxious, Mr. Jin, and don't worry, Mr. Ma. It won't be long before we meet in Seoul, because this time our thoughts are all coming together. I bet, you will be very grateful to me then, not only You, your father and all the men, women, and children in Seoul."
After a long while, Boss Qian finally spoke after he had laughed enough.
"What do you mean? What do we appreciate from you?"
Xiao Jinzi was very puzzled. Ma Tao reached out and slapped him on the forehead, but he couldn't hear it. Qian Santai's words clearly meant that he already knew the situation in Seoul at this time, and had already brought people and medicines with him. It means arriving.
