Yuan Ye avoided the camera and entered the Internet cafe through the back window.
Some unpleasant smells of life and smoke invaded his nostrils. Although it was not new news that Yingzhou Internet cafes had become a residence for low-income migrant workers and homeless homeless people before he traveled through time, but after He did not expect that it would now be directly transformed into an environment similar to a dormitory on a construction site. It seemed that the low-end Internet cafes in Yingzhou had completely turned into something like a cheap hotel with computers in 2077.
The psychic energy swept through and found many sleeping customers in an instant. It was almost ten o'clock now. According to Yuan Ye's own experience before traveling through time, night owls who live a life of day and night would usually take a nap at this time - after all They usually get up at one or two o'clock in the afternoon, and they feel sleepy after eight hours of activity. It is more common to sleep for one or two hours and then "fight" until five or six in the morning and then go to sleep again.
Yuanye chose a booth in the corner and opened the sliding door in front of him. The door of Yingzhou Internet Cafe cannot be locked. This practice has not changed since before he traveled through time.
The people in the cubicle were huddled in the corner, sleeping soundly like this, not worried at all - anyway, for them, except for the clothes and the money in the Internet cafe account, they didn't know anything about it. If you carry anything of value, you basically rely on charity, so you don’t have to worry about it being stolen.
This kind of traditional Internet cafe in Yingzhou is not like the open style where computers are lined up like before Yuanye traveled. Instead, it is composed of small cubicles covered with tatami mats. The cubicles are very small, only two or three cubic meters, and the taller ones are It is difficult for an adult male to straighten his legs and lie down flat on his back. Fortunately, the occupant of the cubicle still looks like a minor, so the two of them can still barely stay in the cubicle if they squeeze together.
Genya put his palm on the resident's chest and guided his breathing. This was a method he developed when he taught Utsumi to practice breathing techniques. It can use spiritual energy to influence the breathing method of the other person through a principle similar to resonance.
The resident's breathing gradually became longer and he fell into a deep sleep, and the influence of outside movements on him gradually weakened.
Put the guest's finger on the fingerprint reader on the table, then open his eyes to pass the iris authentication, and the projection screen and virtual keyboard will pop up together.
This guest obviously only wanted to live in it and did not choose to add physical peripherals for gaming needs, but it was enough for night use.
Yuan Ye plugged in the disguised USB disk made by the technical department, put the earphones in the disposable earphone case provided by the Internet cafe, and after a few simple operations, he logged into the communication software commonly used in the underground world and dialed the drone. network call sign.
After a short wait, the drone's harsh electronic synthesized sound, which was neither male nor female, came from the earphones as always. The voice was lively and he was obviously in a good mood: "Little brother, what do you want from me?"
"Do you believe me when I say that I came here specifically to congratulate you on your successful promotion?" Yuanye chuckled, "No kidding, where is the information I want?"
It seems that UAV has been promoted because of his recent good performance - Yuan Ye heard UAV say smoothly when he commissioned it before.
Naturally, there are no independent organizations or people in this world such as the bards in the fantasy world or the Tianji Pavilion who specialize in selling information for a living, and these people hold the latest and most important information.
The ones with the strongest intelligence capabilities are naturally the intelligence departments of the two major powers on the east and west sides of the Pacific, followed closely by some giant corporate conglomerates and regional hegemons limited to their own territories, and then it is their turn to wander around. Among the big forces, there are mainly individuals as a unit, some of the top "social butterflies" who work for the organizations above or make a living from it. All big organizations have this kind of role by default, which is pretty good as a lubricant between everyone. useful.
Transnational headhunters, lobbyists and political brokers serving giant corporate conglomerates also fall into this category.
Then there are the intelligence agencies and commercial spies owned by giant corporations and political entities whose influence is limited to the home country. Finally, there are all kinds of intelligence agencies affiliated with or simply affiliated with the previous level to provide services to the lowest underground world. Information providers or intermediary organizations.
——The intelligence dealer codenamed Drone is actually just one of these numerous intermediary organizations, and I, who still need to seek information from them, am just a small person.
——If you think about it carefully, it does feel strangely insignificant.
Yuan Ye was joking in his heart, waiting for the drone's answer.
"Hey, as always, I like to say a few words casually and then get straight to the point. It's indeed your style, little brother." Drone's somewhat helpless voice sounded, "But there's nothing to celebrate about getting promoted. It's just a side job. It’s useless no matter how good it is, I’ll pass on the information to you now.”
"Thank you." Yuan Ye went to confirm the file, unplugged the fake USB flash drive and logged out of the account, logged in to the communication software with his own backup personal terminal, and downloaded the file locally.
The small program created by Shiori Hoshino started in time, reminding him that the device was being tracked and giving a countdown to when it was actually located.
The file was very small, and it was downloaded in a second or two. Before Yuan Ye, who was staring blankly at the jumping rabbit on the countdown, could react, the personal terminal automatically logged out of the communication software, started disconnecting the network, and changing the network address. preset process.
Yuan Ye bit his lip, stood up with some inexplicable melancholy, left a chapter of coupons that could be exchanged for ten liters of water as compensation, and left the Internet cafe.
On the way back, Yuanye took a rough look at the information provided by the drone. Of course, this could not be an exclusive secret. It was just a combination of some messages from the underground world and semi-public information. Find those who You can also collect information from commercial companies that do this business on the surface.
However, those companies firstly do not necessarily have a deep understanding of the underground world, and secondly, it is indeed easy to leak secrets. It is better to find "professionals" like drones to do it.
After all, the drone was the channel recommended to him by Mr. Sato. Before he left, he also said that the intelligence capabilities and credibility of the organization the drone was affiliated with were good, and it was a usable channel.
Not only drones, Genya also entrusted multiple channels known to the Black Dragon Society to obtain similar intelligence. The intelligence dealer he came to meet today was just one he deliberately selected to leak information to test the Edo Joint Chief.
The intelligence given by the drone was much the same as the others, with the addition of some not-so-famous rumors in the underground world, as well as some situations where the Edo United Chief had just appeared in people's sight.
"Huh?" Yuan Ye suddenly stopped and focused his eyes on one of them.
