Inside the RV.
Opposite Elsa and Zuo Dao, there sat a pair of figures who looked like a father and daughter.
The man appears to be in his forties, middle-aged, bloated, and ordinary-looking.
The girl looks about thirteen or fourteen years old, delicate but a little sickly, and her physical condition is not good.
"My dear, Mai Qingchun, this is my little daughter, Yuexia." The team owner made an introduction.
Seeing this, Zuo Dao clasped his fists and said with a sincere and grateful expression:
"My surname is Chen, which means "mu". This is my cousin, Chen Ying."
After listening to the introduction, Mai Qingchun looked at Elsa, who was of foreign origin, and restrained his inquiring thoughts.
Mai Qingchun glanced out the window. The motorcade was now back on the road. He turned back and smiled and chatted:
"Brother Chen looks very young, how could he run out of the country?
"The place outside is not as chaotic as the inside."
Previously, Zuo Dao and their car had a "breakdown". What's interesting is that this convoy was the only one to stop to provide help. After the people from the Boca Armed Security Company revealed their identities, they came over to check and repair, and confirmed that even if It cannot be repaired even if there are spare parts.
Then the employer of this convoy, Mai Qingchun, invited Zuo Dao and Elsa to temporarily take their convoy to a gathering place thirty kilometers away to buy transportation tools and then go on the road on their own. Zuo Dao agreed. Finally they were invited into the RV.
"My health is not very good. My uncle runs a small business in Bahamut. He told me that there is a solution to my body in the outer world. He just asked me to bring Sakura here. After all, we haven't seen each other for many years. ” Zuo Dao said.
Chen Mu and Chen Ying are the minor identities of Zuo Dao and Elsa outside the country.
The contact person on Bahamut's side was named Chen, so this identity was finalized.
And this level of identity is not without evidence.
Chen Mu's identity is the son of the younger brother of the contact surnamed Chen, who is similar in age to Zuo Dao.
Chen Ying is indeed the daughter of that joint. She has half of the Chinese and foreign blood. She is two years older than the current Elsa. She was assigned to the Chinese before she was even one month old.
After they enabled this line, the corresponding identity information and related personnel have been processed and resettled.
Interested people from outside the country want to check their files through contacts in the Chinese domain, but only their appearance will be shown. If someone goes to actually investigate, the working group in the country is also waiting for someone to take the bait.
Mai Qingchun didn't seem too surprised to hear this reason. After all, this kind of thing is not uncommon.
There are many people in Huayu who go to the outside world to seek life, and some common things will happen to them. They don't want their descendants to grow up in such a place and become lawless gangsters, so they will try their best to let their descendants Enter each domain and gain a clean identity.
As for the situation on the left...
Mai Qingchun had a rough idea after taking one look at his pale face. He said in a gentle tone:
"It's not easy. Let's take it as a lesson. The prices at the car dealerships at the border rest station are twice as high as those inside the country. Most of the vehicles have been modified and their origins are confusing.
"The condition of the car...many parts have been tampered with and replaced with some shoddy products to gain more profits. Generally speaking, when you open two or three gathering places, you have to lie down...
"Most of them have some connection with distant gathering places, so they can continue to make profits."
Mai Qingchun told the inside story, while Zuo Dao looked like he was willing to be taught.
Only Zuo Dao knew that there was nothing wrong with the car, but it also had problems.
He did have the paper man check the vehicle before driving away, and it was fine.
Who would have thought that there would always be some unexpected events in a person's life.
After three days of driving day and night, there was something wrong with the coolant circulation system, and those paper figures were obviously in trouble.
At this time, Zuo Dao had already noticed Elsa's undisguised but hesitant curiosity.
He took this opportunity to have an in-depth conversation with Elsa.
Having said that, it is still related to
Exchange ideas with the other party and see the three perspectives of the collaborators.
In order to have more time for communication and allow the emergency to be settled, he chose to do some damage to the car to make it more completely damaged.
Also add more things to their schedule to observe whether there is any deviation between the other person's words and their actual behavior.
To put it bluntly, it is fireproof, anti-theft and anti-Mother.
In order to achieve the goal, even if there are more dangers and troubles, or even internal conflicts at the beginning, it is worth it in the eyes of the right.
It's better than being stabbed in the back by the Virgin at the critical moment and falling short.
Therefore, when a new surprise came, namely the arrival of the team's employer, Mai Qingchun, he chose to get on the bus and go to the gathering place thirty kilometers away.
The reason why I didn’t go to the previous gathering places before was because——
There are too many outland eyes in those gathering places, which is inconvenient.
During the chat, most of the time it was Mai Qingchun who was talking about what he had seen and heard, and he would give a few compliments at the right time. The exchanges would not cross the line and go into deep conversation. The scene seemed very harmonious, and there was quite a warm feeling like a year-end friendship.
Elsa and her daughter were playing a traditional Chinese board game.
Through chatting, Zuo Dao also roughly knew the other party's situation.
This person has a certain level of strength, which refers to the financial aspect, and is doing some business at home and abroad. This time, his daughter has some health problems and needs to go to the seventh city-state for treatment.
Perhaps it was because of this, that the other party would accept the physical reason he made up so instantly.
After all, this situation is not uncommon, even common.
It is a consensus that overseas survival costs are high and chaotic.
However, because they are in a gray area, there will be many black technologies or industries that require funds, choosing to conduct business overseas to achieve their own goals.
Medical care is one of them. Many medical work and industries that are difficult to carry out in various domains will not be restricted in foreign lands. The only problem is the safety of customers. However, this kind of thing has nothing to do with Does their company have half a dime to do with it?
Such things as tasting period and after-sales guarantee do not exist in this land.
Of course, this is just the opinion of Mai Qingchun's family. Only the devil knows whether the truth about their trip is true.
The distance of thirty kilometers was quickly reached as the convoy raced all the way.
The pilot car turned off the main road and drove on a roughly constructed path. ….
Not long into the journey, the convoy entered a place that looked more like a refugee camp than a gathering place.
There was only a large, tattered sign marking the location at the entrance, and a few lazy gunmen standing guard.
When they saw the convoy, they didn't stop it and just let it go.
The conversation between Zuo Dao and Mai Qingchun stopped as they were about to arrive, each admiring the scenery that was not scenery.
On the other hand, Elsa and the girl had a great time playing chess, and they were inextricably killed.
Seeing the serious expressions on Elsa and the girl, Zuo Dao and Mai Qingchun both smiled.
You can see through the car window that the scenery outside is quite reminiscent of the world of the past and the backwardness of a certain place.
The decoration of the shops and residences is very simple, it can even be said that there is no decoration.
So much so that it is difficult to tell which one is a shop and which one is a place of residence.
"Brother Zuo, we need to replenish supplies next. You go about a kilometer north. I remember there is a car dealership there, but the price will be quite high." Mai Qingchun stood up and said.
"Thank you, Brother Mai." Zuo Dao also stood up and clasped his fists:
"Then we part ways from now on."
Mai Qingchun smiled and nodded.
Elsa also stopped playing chess, and with the girl's regretful expression, they hugged each other and said goodbye.
Zuo Dao and Elsa got off the bus first.
As soon as they got out of the car, they smelled something not so good.
Don't think too much, it's just a dense mixture of human beings, and it's not the same as architecture.
The complexity caused by unreasonable assumptions.
Zuo Dao observed the surroundings and found that the Boka armed forces had taken the lead to guard various key points.
They stood carefully and maintained a vigilant attitude.
Wherever they looked, there were imaginary sources of danger.
These people are indeed very professional.
Zuo Dao didn't know much about the armed men in this world.
But he used to travel around the world, so he had a lot of dealings with mercenary-type organizations. Judging from current evaluations, the professional quality of the Boca Armed Forces is very high.
Whether these armed personnel have mysterious abilities or not is one thing.
However, in a world where mystery is the mainstream, the development of the world is still firmly moving towards technology, which shows that mystery is not omnipotent.
If you despise these ordinary people, your death will be ugly and humiliating.
Zuo Dao took Elsa's hand and walked towards the north.
This direction is the position of the pilot car.
When Zuo Dao passed by him, the armed man holding a loudspeaker said in an incomprehensible voice:
"Outside is not as good as inside. Go buy some weapons first, if you don't have any."
Hearing this, Zuo Dao's eyes turned, and the other party had already begun to call other team members to stay alert.
Those sudden words seemed to have never happened.
The left path kept walking and disappeared into the streets of the gathering place.
...
Inside the RV.
Mai Qingchun was on the phone and hung up immediately after he finished speaking.
Immediately, he made another phone call and said a few words.
Mai Qingchun stood up and took out a laptop from the cabinet.
He called up two surveillance cameras, and the main characters in the perspective happened to be Zuo Dao and Elsa.
Mai Qingchun chose to play back. He intercepted a few of the clearest images and transferred them to his mobile phone.
Finally, he swiped the screen, clicked on a software, entered text, and sent a few photos. ….
After a while, a document came to his phone, and he clicked to read it.
Inside is information about Zuo Dao and Elsa.
He fixed his gaze on the stall in the left lane and frowned slightly:
"Is it really Chen Mu?
"Is Zuo Dao a fake identity?
"Or are both identities fake?"
Mai Qingchun thought and turned to look at his daughter.
After Zuo Dao and the others left, the girl changed from her normal state and huddled in a corner of the RV with a frightened look on her face.
Mai Qingchun walked up to the girl with steady steps and looked down at her.
He reached out and grabbed the girl's hair and pulled her towards him. The girl was forced to come closer in pain and did not dare to make a sound.
"Did you say anything to that girl?" Mai Qingchun asked with a cold expression.
The girl shed tears, trembled and stuttered back:
"No...no...
"You're looking at..."
Mai Qingchun stared into the girl's eyes, trying to see something else.
The other person's eyes were filled with tears and a look of horror, nothing else.
Before he could continue the interrogation, his cell phone rang again.
While staring at the girl, Mai Qingchun took out his mobile phone and answered the call.
"The man and woman are on their way to us.
"The lookout said that one of the two has a mysterious ability and is communicating with each other in consciousness.
"This is different from what ordinary people say.
"You give me an indication of whether you want to continue. If you continue, you need to add more money."
The other end of the phone said so, his tone was very dissatisfied.
Listening to the other party's words, Mai Qingchun had no expression on his face and replied calmly:
"I made a mistake. If you continue, I'll add more money."
Hearing this, the other end of the phone chuckled:
"Still want something fresh?"
"Yeah." Mai Qingchun replied in a nasal voice.
...
Zuo Dao and Elsa were walking on North Street, heading towards the car that the other party mentioned.
This gathering place is already some distance from the border.
Here, the number of people of all skin colors is increasing.
Most of the people here are wearing older clothes, and some are simply topless.
The entire gathering place seemed very quiet. Although there were people walking around on the road, they basically didn't speak.
Even if someone speaks, they can only communicate in whispers.
Passing by some places that look like shops, they don't put up signs or advertise, but they open their doors widely, implying that they don't welcome strangers. This is an unspoken rule in the border land.
Pedestrians coming and going, as well as some people sitting outside simple buildings looking at nothing, all looked at Zuodao and Elsa with strange eyes.
However, none of these people took any action. They seemed to have discovered something.
This kind of sight and atmosphere makes people unhappy, but there is nothing wrong with it.
Because he and Elsa were communicating consciously and were very busy.
"Mr. Zuodou, that girl is asking me for help.
"Before I was there, the feedback my intuition gave me was vaguely unsettling, so I didn't choose conscious communication. Elsa said, as her consciousness fluctuated, as if she had other thoughts.
Conscious communication requires the performer to have a good soul background, but the difficulty of learning is not high.
However, the tips for communicating consciousness are confidential information in various fields, and not many people know how to use them.
It is very private and efficient, and correspondingly, its communication status is very conspicuous. ….
For those with mysterious powers, it is easy to sense that kind of fluctuation.
Therefore, conscious communication is only used in a few emergency situations.
Suppose you are unannounced and there are all mysterious people present, but two people are chatting on a small channel without joining the others. This is a very rude behavior and can easily arouse resentment.
"Is it intuitive?" ”Zuo Dao’s consciousness space replied, his consciousness fluctuating very calmly:
"The Boca-armed security officer just now also gave us a reminder, which is interesting.
"It seems that Mr. Mai may have another purpose, but he did a good job of disguising it.
"Elsa, why did that girl ask you for help?" 』
Zuo Dao's calm fluctuations in consciousness made Elsa also calm.
She thought that what Zuo Dao said was a good disguise, which was the other party's flawless speech and emotional management.
In fact, when Zuo Dao said that the disguise was good, he meant that the fate book had no response at all.
“When she was playing chess with me, she would sometimes make some strange moves. At first I thought she was not familiar with the rules of the game, so she would be hesitant when playing chess.
"But then I discovered that she seemed to be imagining the text and repeating the same movement.
"I carefully observed her movements, and finally came up with a few words - save me, he is not my father."
"Mr. Zuo Dao, what do you think?" 』Elsa responded to Zuo Dao's question.
In the space of consciousness, Zuo Dao fell into contemplation for a breath of ten thousand years.
"There are currently three possibilities for the situation where the destiny book does not respond -
"One is that Mai Qingchun has no ill intentions towards us, but is doing some shameful things. If this is the case, as far as I am concerned, I will not choose to rescue. After all, there are no relatives or friends. But depending on the situation, Elsa seems There is meaning in this aspect, otherwise it would not be so emphasized.
"The second is that he has some thoughts about Elsa and me, but he has not completely made up his mind, or he has made a decision, but his plan is not enough to create a sufficient threat based on the fate book. Therefore, it did not reflect the pattern, indicating that even Elsa herself could handle it well enough.
"Of course, there is a third possibility, that is, Mai Qingchun may only be malicious towards me, but I can solve it without paying too much, and because he is not targeting Elsa, there is no pattern reminder.
"With this analysis, the second possibility may be a little bit greater -
—
"First of all, the words left by the Boca armed man were obviously reminding me to be careful, but in that case, why didn't he do this until we got out of the car?
"Secondly, from the moment we walked towards the destination given by Mai Qingchun, someone began to secretly observe us. But when Elsa started conscious communication, the feeling of being observed instantly dropped.
"It means that if we don't say that all the people here are evil, then it's not much different, and there are quite a few who are brave. Thinking further, among the people who still maintain their mysterious abilities after revealing their mysterious abilities, there may be people like Mai Qingchun. ?
"First go to the car dealership he mentioned. If there is any attack on us, then go back and kill Mai Qingchun and save the girl on the way. If there is no problem and the trip goes smoothly, let's see if we can leave it alone.
"In order to prevent the little paper man from being discovered, the little paper man on the other side of the motorcade is hiding from a distance. The paper man going in the direction of the car is walking slowly and hasn't arrived yet. I might as well walk slower here, that is, I will Potential enemies have a little more time to prepare.
"Well, I need to explain it to Ms. Elsa.
"I didn't expect that she actually hides a high sense of justice. It's really confusing."
Those who have made a decision will reply through conscious communication:
"I....."
Zuo Dao's words suddenly got stuck.
"Mr. Zuo Dao?" ’ Elsa asked with some confusion.
At the same time, Zuo Dao's soul was in the sea.
On the fate book belonging to Elsa, a pattern suddenly emerged——
"Evil worry".
