The young man thanked him, took the cigarette, lit it up with Yang Jie's lighter, and took a long drag.
Exhaling the thick smoke, the young man's somewhat tense shoulders relaxed. He leaned against the wall of the car shop, exhaled a long breath, and finally relaxed.
Yang Jie also lit a cigarette and accompanied the young man to relax.
Seeing the embarrassment and timidity in the young man's eyes fade away, Yang Jie took a puff of cigarette and asked as if he didn't care:
"Are you preparing to leave the city?"
"Yes."
The young man nodded with a cigarette in his mouth and asked curiously:
"How did you know?"
"hehe."
Yang Jie laughed, pointed at the modified off-road vehicle and said:
“I’ve been repairing cars for a long time, and I’ve never seen anything like it.
The body of your car is quite clean, and there isn't much gravel on the chassis. It seems that you haven't been to the wasteland recently. "
After listening to Yang Jie's explanation, the young man suddenly realized, and then admitted:
"Master Piero said he was going hunting outside the city, but he didn't expect that the car broke down before he left the city."
The young man smiled bitterly when he said this, and then said:
"I didn't expect that I would be so unlucky that I would cause such a big mess just after joining Del Piero's team."
He said, patting the young man on the shoulder.
“The parts of that car are a bit old, so it’s not your problem at all if it breaks down.
This is simply because you car mechanics are lazy and do not properly maintain and inspect the vehicle on weekdays. "
"Hey, don't mention it."
The young man said and waved his hand.
"Our car mechanic was nowhere to be found two weeks ago and there's no one to look after the cars these days."
coming.
Hearing the young man taking the initiative to talk about the carmaker, Yang Jie concentrated his attention, picked up his cigarette and took a puff, and asked with good faith:
"Can't find anyone? Resigned?"
"No."
The young man shook his head and explained:
"I just can't find anyone. I haven't resigned or asked for leave."
Having said this, he secretly glanced out again and saw that Piero was still in the car and had not gotten out of the car. He approached Yang Jie and whispered:
"Diero got very angry because of this matter. He would hit anyone he saw in those days, and he didn't like anyone."
Speaking of this, the young man became more courageous. He hesitated and then continued:
"Pierro himself has a bad temper. I heard that the wheelwright was often beaten - he was an old man who worked for Piero.
He didn't want to do it anymore and was afraid of being tortured by Piero, so it was normal for him to hide. "
"Old man? He's been doing this for a long time?"
"It must have been more than ten years ago. Anyway, I heard that when Del Piero established the team, the carmaker has been following him."
"The pressure is really too much."
Yang Jie nodded in agreement with the young man, but he didn't think so in his heart.
Since a carmaker has been working with Piero for more than ten years, it means that he has long been accustomed to Piero's character.
Suddenly disappearing for no reason, is it really just because of this?
After taking the last puff of cigarette, Yang Jie put out the cigarette butt, pretended to look at his watch and frowned.
"Hasn't this kid been found yet?"
After muttering to himself, Yang Jie smiled apologetically at the young man, and then shouted to the door of the warehouse:
"Rock! Did you find it?"
"Found it, I'll come out right away!"
Luo Ke, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, took what he needed. He heard Yang Jie calling him, pushed open the warehouse door, put the battery, leather tube and hoop next to the off-road vehicle, and then complained:
"Can we tidy up the warehouse? Do you know how hard it is to find these things?"
"Okay, don't worry, you have to take care of it yourself."
Yang Jie replied impatiently, playing along with Rock's performance, as if the two were really employees of a car shop.
Luo Ke rolled his eyes at Yang Jie angrily.
"Hurry up and fix it, let's go have dinner."
Yang Jie unplugged the leather hose from the coolant pipe, frowned, raised his hand, and brought the hose to his eyes to take a look.
The tiny cracks on the leather tube look new, not like they are caused by age.
"Has anyone had your leather tube removed?"
"It's Master Piero."
The young man replied:
"Chris, after our carmaker disappeared, Piero has been looking for carmakers, but no one caught his eye. He was so angry that he said he would just do it himself, and then he tinkered with the car for a long time. "
Good boy, you are so unlucky.
Yang Jie gave the young man a sympathetic look, inserted the new leather tube, reinstalled the hoop head, replaced the battery, got into the car and started the fire.

The off-road vehicle was working normally without any errors. Yang Jie checked again to make sure that the coolant was no longer leaking and then closed the hood.
"Okay, no problem."
The young man thanked him and saw that no one picked up the money bag that was thrown outside the garage. He hesitated for a moment and ran over, put the scattered silver coins into his pocket, and then walked up to Yang Jie with the money bag.
"Pierro's reward is nothing, and he has money anyway."
He blinked, as if he thought he could get a little revenge on his employer in this way. Without waiting for Yang Jie to say anything else, he put the money bag into Yang Jie's arms and got into the cab.
The off-road vehicle backed out of the car shop and followed the convoy out of the city.
"Good guy, that fat pig gave me a lot of money."
Luo Ke looked at the money bag in Yang Jie's arms and pouted, a little jealous.
Yang Jie held the money bag and looked at the door without any reaction.
"Tsk? What's wrong? Are you so happy to be hit with so much money?"
"Rock."
Yang Jie suddenly turned his head, looked at Luo Ke, and asked a little seriously:
"When was the motor system in our car modified?"
“A week ago when I saved you.
It took us a long time to modify the motor system.
On the morning before we set off to rescue you, our car had just been refitted and maintained. "
"That's right."
Just now, Yang Jie suddenly remembered where he had seen that somewhat special cladding welding technique.
Akainu Team's Ford SUV.
The motor bracket of the ERS system has that special overlay welding, and there is only one piece.
If the troublemaker joined the car shop halfway and completed the final modification of the ERS system with the car shop owner, then everything would make sense!
It's all connected!
The nicks on the engine cylinder, the same overlay welding on the three cars, the missing carmaker, and the coincidental time of his disappearance.
Now, Yang Jie is 99% sure that Piero's carmaker is the one who tampered with the engine!
The suspicion of Thor Industries has become bigger and bigger.
Luo Ke looked at Yang Jie, who sometimes looked thoughtful and sometimes a little excited, and didn't understand what he was talking about.
"What's the right thing?"
"I should already know who tampered with our engine."
It was related to the mission, and Rock suddenly became alert.
He glanced outside the door to make sure no one was there, then took Yang Jie out of the car shop and locked the door again.
"Let's go back and talk."
