Zhou Jinru's eyes were fixed on Ethan, specifically on his uniform and arm badge, and he said calmly: "Ah Mian, write a note for him to take back. Ethan's food must be recorded. By the way, let me tell Tallulah that the Regicide not only gets free food and lodging in Rhode Island, but also gets a salary, which is not the treatment of a prisoner."

After finishing, he waved his hand and let the two of them go out.

Zhou Jinru secretly screamed that something was wrong. One moment he was thinking about hiding himself, but the next moment Ethan came to the door and Tallulah already knew that he was here. Was his whereabouts exposed so quickly?

The number of people in her stronghold may not be enough for Tallulah to deal with alone, not to mention that there must be more integration movement cadres around her.

"What exactly is Tallulah's main goal?"

Zhou Jinru couldn't think of anything that attracted her to Saint Yalar. He held the photo in his hand. Shuangye smiled bitterly while puffing out his cheeks. Behind him was Shuangxing holding up scissor hands. The two of them were really messing around. Come together.

"Currently there is no intelligence that the Patriots are here. Fortunately, this is the case. Otherwise, if another Wendigo comes, I will have to find a way to escape with Ceria and the others."

Zhou Jinru put the photo in his pocket, yawned, and turned around to find a place to rest. He was tired and now he couldn't open his eyes.

"Two armies are fighting... Tallulah, what exactly are you telling me?"

Just when he was going to bed, Ethan took the squeeze that the Undertaker gave him and was about to go back after leaving the maintenance factory. Zhou Jinru's last words were still echoing in his mind, and his eyes were full of shock.

Before coming, as a ghost engineer, he was received by the leader in an unusual way and given a task, which was to come to Rhode Island to request a prisoner exchange. But just as he was leaving, the leader said something else, which seemed to have some direction. .

"Ethan, do you know that the food in Rhode Island is very good? When you go there, you must eat their food. Whether it tastes good or fills your stomach, you must eat some so that you can gain his trust. Because he is very suspicious, and if you don’t reveal any clues, he will directly kill someone.”

Ethan still has lingering fears. The man known as A Guang did have murderous intentions at the beginning.

"The most important thing is that you must convey my words to him intact, so that your probability of survival will be greater. In the end, with his unwillingness to suffer, he will probably let you come back to see me with the squeeze. "

Ethan's figure disappeared into the street, the hand he was holding was covered with cold sweat.

What is the relationship between the leader and that man? !

It is clear that the Integration Movement and Rhode Island are enemies. The leader attacked the Rhode Island team and even said harsh words. What is the fundamental purpose?

He couldn't think of an answer to the question, so he put the question behind him. As long as he had food to eat and a stable life, it was not his turn to interfere with the leader's affairs.

The next day, Zhou Jinru had a sound sleep and was still a little cold when he woke up. He walked to the faucet and patted his face with cold water, finally feeling clearer.

When he entered the backyard of the maintenance factory, he realized that Seria and Hemo had left early in the morning. Seria went back to class, and the others still had work at the institute.

"You left so early, didn't you stay for breakfast?"

Breeze brought a bowl of pancakes: "No, they may have to prepare other work."

Zhou Jinru looked at the pot of oily pancakes covered with a layer of ham, meat cubes, diced carrots and corn kernels. The aroma was fragrant, and he couldn't help but swallow. He thought to himself that he was indeed Wei Na's housekeeper, learning from Jiao Feng. With a lot of skills, the recipes get rid of the dilemma of only potatoes and grilled fish.

He hadn't eaten anything since last night, and his late-night snack had been interrupted. He spent the night hungry, and his stomach was already clamoring for hunger.

"Grace, you're so kind."

Zhou Jinru sighed sincerely.

He completely forgot about the unpleasantness that had happened before and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the food.

"The taste is a bit strange. Is this a specialty of Saint-Aral?"

Zhou Jinru ate a piece of pancake and felt something was wrong.

"It's nothing, just some herbs for refreshing. I also prepared some for Sister Ansuo to help her recover."

"Oh, veteran Chinese medicine doctor in the field, I give you a thumbs up."

Zhou Jinru gave a thumbs up while eating, but found that Wei Feng's expression was a little strange.

She said calmly: "It just has some side effects and makes me thirsty easily."

"That's okay. I just need to drink more water. If you're okay today, call Shangmei and we'll go somewhere."

"Where?"

Zhou Jinru unfolded the hand-drawn map he carried with him and pointed to an eye-catching mark on it: "Saint-Aral's Sail Era Exhibition Hall, where we can see the last keel of the chassis that moved the core of the city."

An hour later, the mourner drove an off-road vehicle on a fairly spacious road. Compared with the several rusty pipes that cross the city in Tenant State, Saint-Aral's urban planning is much more reasonable, at least in this area. Those winding pipes are nowhere to be seen in the city.

There is no difference between the land city and what Zhou Jinru imagined. There are few people, no desertion, and no noise from the surrounding factories. It fully meets the basic conditions of an old-era industrial city.

"Doctor, this is a production site for agricultural tools. The production and sales are very wide. There are orders from Syracuse, Sicily to Letania. There are many factories like this that produce low-end products. This city is still alive today. The largest The reason is that commercial orders from various countries are enough to support its continued operation, which is also the compromise made by Colombia."

Breeze introduced the actual situation of Saint Yalar. She had been with Vina for so long, managed a gang, and had grown from a simple medical operator to a talent who could take charge of her own business. In addition, her family had also made great progress in personal education. A lot of effort.

Zhou Jinru could see from her the support of the old nobles of Duolun County for the Aslan royal family.

Li leaned back in his seat and crossed his arms: "The Colombian gentlemen neither want the Rust Belt to come back to life, nor do they want it to die completely. They would rather let gangs control the land cities than turn it into a city. "Mobile City Leftover"

Breeze added: "There is not enough power anymore. The Sail Era is glorious but also heavy. It promotes the emergence of mobile cities and deeply affects the hard power of various countries. Even powerful countries such as Ursus and Yan Even the country can’t breathe.”

In the end, everything is suffering caused by disasters.

Zhou Jinru looked at Mei, and the detective sister clasped her fingers and shouted at the fifth turn: "Just turn here."

"That's not how it is drawn on the map. Is there any problem with this map?"

Zhou Jinru looked at the map and saw that the corner where Mei turned was still a long way from their destination.

"Doctor, road construction suddenly started at the main entrance of the previous exhibition halls. To go there, you have to go around in other directions. The opening of the exhibition halls has not been affected and the business is open normally."

"Is the road being built?"

Zhou Jinru nodded thoughtfully. Nowadays, the infrastructure construction in Saint-Aral is nominally carried out by the governing agencies, but when it comes to funds and construction personnel, it becomes the work of gangs. In other words, all workers in this city They all have another identity - gang members.

The Undertaker followed suit and pulled the steering wheel to turn and move on.

"We are just visiting the exhibition hall. Our main task is to pick up Seria and the others. All the procedures are fine. With Silver Fox's endorsement, Rhine Life will not let them go. The problem is that Hemo refuses to let go, and we still need to find a way. .”

Zhou Jinru sighed. He now had a headache as big as two.

If he could run away quickly, he would have taken the people away long ago.

Silver Fox left Saint Martin for the Pole two years ago. She was still shining before leaving, which moved Zhou Jinru deeply...

As for the follow-up team members from Rhode Island, they were still stuck halfway by the sandstorm. Since they were carrying heavy equipment, they could only watch the sand and sigh.

"Breeze, you have had some contact with Dr. Hemer. Does she have any bad reputation?"

"No, doctor, I'm still very unfamiliar with Dr. Hemmer. She won't tell me anything easily."

Zhou Jinru was right. Now he couldn't find a breakthrough. He didn't tell Ifrit a story yesterday, which made the girl very unhappy. He would have to find ways to make amends and repair the relationship in the future.

He couldn't help but feel thirsty, so he picked up the water bottle and took a sip.

Li, who had been paying attention to him next to him, was curious. Dr. Jin seemed to have drank a lot of water. Was he so thirsty?

The remaining journey was not too long, and we arrived at our destination in half an hour.

Zhou Jinru jumped out of the car and looked around. He drank a lot of water on the road, so that his abdomen was a little bloated and he wanted to find a place to go to the toilet.

"There is a toilet in the exhibition hall, come with me."

Mei saw Zhou Jinru's needs at a glance and took the initiative to lead the way.

"Mei, have you and Ansuo been to the exhibition hall since you sneaked into this city?"

Zhou Jinru said curiously.

"I came here once. We need to conduct on-site survey of the terrain when drawing the map. The exhibition hall is an important landmark building and we must come."

Mei walked quickly through the steps and came to the ticket office at the entrance of the exhibition hall. She quickly bought a few tickets, led Zhou Jinru in, and went straight to the bathroom.

This strange behavior gave Zhou Jinru the feeling of returning to his hometown. At that time, in addition to shopping, the purpose of going to a large supermarket was to find a bathroom.

After draining the water in a relaxed manner, Zhou Jinru walked out of the bathroom with a comfortable look on his face and washed his hands by the sink. He remembered that he had not taken a good look at the exhibition hall. When he looked up, he suddenly saw a man in a white coat coming out of the women's restroom. Miss Carters, the other party also looked at him and stayed where he was.

Time seemed to be frozen. There was a gurgling sound in Zhou Jinru's throat. He could not utter a single word. The expression on the other party's cold face gradually changed from shock to indifference, and even the surrounding temperature became colder.

"What a coincidence?"

Zhou Jinru raised his hand with difficulty and said hello.

"Well, what a coincidence."

Miss Carters washed her hands and turned to leave without stopping for a moment.

Zhou Jinru froze on the spot, watching the water droplets on his fingers gradually condense into frost. Although it was very cold, it did not cause any real damage.

"I can't feel any obvious emotional changes. She is very strong. I can't detect more with my current full-level strength, so I didn't discover her at the first time."

Frost Star.

It was just the tacit dialogue between the two parties that made him feel like he was in the world of Gu Long's martial arts.

"The Integration Movement is here too, Froststar won't be leaving her Yeti team, so they should be nearby."

When Zhou Jinru walked out of the bathroom door, he happened to see his operator holding an ice cream, and Li handed him the extra one in his left hand.

He couldn't laugh or cry: "I just went to the bathroom, what happened?"

Is it possible that there is something mysterious about the bathroom door, and stepping through that door counts as crossing?

The mourner pointed to the rest area of ​​the exhibition hall not far away, where a dozen salesmen wearing various weird costumes gathered, and they seemed to be selling cold drinks to tourists.

Zhou Jinru unexpectedly discovered that frost leaves were also in its juice...

"We just discovered that, unfortunately, with the snow monster princess here, it is impossible to save Frost Leaf from her hands."

With the plan to exchange prisoners late last night, Rhode Island's group did not make any surprise attacks to avoid unnecessary casualties.

"They just make money by selling cold drinks?"

"Well, for life."

Zhou Jinru had a confused expression on his face, and Shuangxing, who was wearing a white high hat, happened to look over. With that blank look in her eyes, it seemed that she didn't understand what was going on.

"Don't worry so much for now, at least we know Frostleaf is safe."

Zhou Jinru decided to put this matter aside for the time being, at least until the regicide was brought over by the crew of this ship before he could make any further plans.

He took a bite of the ice cream and it tasted average: "Look where the keel is."

Ansuo repeatedly emphasized the dragon bone, and Zhou Jinru thought that he could only truly understand it if he saw it with his own eyes.

As for passing by Frost Star, it was just an episode.

Most of the collections displayed in the exhibition hall are tools used to build mobile cities in the sailing era, or biographies of certain legendary figures, including some old photos.

Zhou Jinru was no longer accompanied by an operator. He walked alone and saw no other tourists. He was the only one left in the huge exhibition room.

"This is the final chassis for a mobile city."

Zhou Jinru looked at a yellowed photo, which was taken from a long distance, with the outline of the chassis vaguely visible, and many citizens holding flowers.

But when they held up the flowers, they never imagined that it was the last chassis.

Zhou Jinru couldn't help but feel the irony. He stood up straight and continued walking forward, passing through a corridor full of technology and arriving at the largest display room in the exhibition hall.

He stood on the edge of the circular exhibition stand, holding on to the guardrail. What he saw in front of him was a huge dark red steel skeleton. It was as if he had an hallucination in front of his eyes, and there were whistling, shouting, and other sounds in his ears. The engine roars like thunder when the moving city starts.

It was an echo of the times.
