In this Daqian shijie, from the perspective of human nature, the horizontal is afraid of the hard, the hard is afraid of the stunned, and the stunned is afraid of dying. For every living individual, they have their own weaknesses, whether they are politicians, high-ranking officials, ordinary people, and untouchables. Although they are afraid of different things or objects, they cannot get rid of the fear of certain things. It's just that some people hide this very deeply, from being discovered and unknown. But what happened today in South Philippine and directly took your life without you knowing it, is something that everyone fears, no matter how righteous and fearless he is.

Without further ado, we traveled back from the disturbing and chaotic shijie back to the moment when Yuxing had just stepped on the moat bridge in the city, a tourist attraction in Manila, more than three hours ago.

After entering the gate of the royal city, Yuxing felt as if he had traveled back to the era of colonial rule in the 18th century along the long river of history. This feeling of going back in time made Yuxing, who went abroad for the first time, immediately feel high.

Wei Dong, who was becoming more and more exquisite, understood the captain's intentions from the glowing eyes of the boss. He beckoned two eighteenth-century horse-drawn carriages and instructed the drivers to tour the royal city along the way. He and Chen 18 accompanied the captain to the first carriage, and the five robot warriors followed the three in the second carriage. Two antique carriages carrying Yuxing eight people shuttled through the streets, passes, ports, and walled cities. Admire the beauty of the ancient city, which exuded Spanish elegance more than 200 years ago and retained the architectural features of antiquity.

The ancient buildings of the Intramuros of Manila have a long history and are simple and solemn. Shuttling through these nostalgic attractions, imagining its original lively scene, and appreciating the historical story of the city, Yuxing, who knows a little bit about the culture of the Western Spotted Tooth, sighs and sighs with emotion.

They first went for a sightseeing tour of the Castle of Santiago, the "Holy Land of Freedom", located in the northwest of the Intramuros and admired the timelessness of the castle. Then we went to appreciate the architectural features of St. Augustine's Church, and climbed to the top of the choir for a beautiful view of the city. Then head to the Casa Manila Museum to witness the household items of the Filipino's elite from the 19th to the 20th centuries.

More than two hours passed before I knew it. The carriage passed by a café with Spanish architectural features, and Yuxing stopped the carriage.

"Weidong, let's go in and rest for a while, let the carriage go, let's walk out later. Yuxing instructed Wei Dong in his stumbling English.

"Yes, boss. "Weidong's English is the standard Oxford accent.

Chen 18 and the driver of the carriage went to settle the bill, and Wei Dong led Yuxing into the café.

Although the Manila government and military are on high tension and alert, and governments of various countries have issued red warnings for tourists to visit the South Philippines almost at the same time the day after the Chinese government issued the Zuihou ultimatum, tourists from all over the world are no longer surprised by the strong protests and warnings issued by the Chinese government from time to time in recent years, and they believe that the Chinese government is just talking about it, and will not take actual action. The most direct manifestation of this view is that the South China Sea dispute has not deterred tourists from the hotspot because of fear of war. Therefore, the number of foreign tourists visiting the Philippines has not decreased significantly. There are still crowds of foreign tourists in the Intramuros. Not less.

There are many foreign tourists in the café who are relaxing and chatting, and there are only three connected tables in the corner of the toilet in the café without customers.

Wei Dong couldn't help frowning deeply when he saw this scene, he thought that it was obviously not very suitable to sit there as a captain and honorable person. Wei Dong was about to beckon the waiter to come over and coordinate a seat for them. Yuxing waved his hand at him.

"That's it. As he spoke, he led his way in the direction of the three empty tables.

Wei Dong shook his head at the five robot warriors who followed behind him, and the two robot warriors immediately walked quickly beyond the team to the three tables, and used perspective scanning to probe the situation behind the three tables, chairs, and walls, and then slightly to Wei Dong, who had already walked to the table. Wei Dong asked the captain to sit down at the middle table, and motioned for the five robot warriors to occupy the other two tables. Then he beckoned the waiter to come and order.

"Boss, what kind of coffee do you drink?" Wei Dong did not sit down, but stood at the coffee table and waited for the captain.

"Have a local coffee. Taste what it tastes like, don't let them sit dry, give them a drink each. Yuxing shook his head in the direction of the tables on either side.

"Yes, boss. ”

At this time, the waiter had already come over. Wei Dong said to the waiter.

"Is there a Noyak?"

"Yes, but..."

"No but, eight cups. Wei Dong gestured to the three tables.

The waiter couldn't help but feel apprehensive when he saw the other two tables of tall and powerful robot warriors. He wanted to speak and stopped, and refused to leave.

"Is there any problem?" Wei Dong sat diagonally across from the captain and said to the waiter standing there with a bitter face.

"This gentleman. Our coffee, although also called Nouak, is not authentic Nouak, do you still need it?"

"Forget it, you can recommend a local coffee. Yuxing took over.

The waiter didn't understand Yuxing's Chinese-style English, and looked at Wei Dong for help. Wei Dong repeated.

The waiter said, "Is it okay for Fu Lai Gao?"

"Yes. Woo Sung continued to show off his English unyieldingly. This time, the waiter understood. Turn around and go to the bar to prepare coffee.

Yuxing sighed again, counterfeiting and shoddy products are not uncommon in developing countries, but China is more serious. However, in the case just now, the citizens of other countries dare to admit that they are dealing in counterfeits with the same name, and let you choose whether to use them or not. The Chinese people do not have this kind of courage and lack a sense of responsibility.

Chen 18 had already finished negotiating with the owner of the horse, and after being blackmailed a hundred dollars, he returned to Yuxing's seat.

The three of them chatted quietly while drinking the famous white coffee of the Philippines. Yuxing has become more and more dependent on the cyborgs under his command, and has become more and more regarded as ordinary humans, and their rich knowledge has benefited Yuxing a lot during this period of time.

Chen Shibai said and smiled and introduced the coffee culture of South Philippine Bin to Yuxing, especially the origin and production process of cat poop coffee Nowak, and Yuxing's stomach twitched for a while, which was extremely uncomfortable. Even Hu fortunately didn't drink that thing, otherwise he might not have been able to eat today's dinner.

The three of them were chatting happily when a blonde beauty hurried in from outside the café. She looked around. Seeing that there was still a seat at Yuxing's location, he walked over to the table where Yuxing was.

"Sir, may I sit here?"

She could see that although Yuxing was the shortest and thinnest of the three, he was the one in charge of the three. So she asked Yuxing politely.

"Absolutely. "Such a simple English Yuxing is quite standard to speak.

"My computer is out of battery and there is an electrical outlet on the wall next to this desk. ”

The blonde sat down and explained to Woo Seung as she pulled out a small laptop from her travel bag.

Yuxing showed his gentlemanly demeanor and took the initiative to help the blonde plug in.

“xiexie。 After the girl finished speaking, she put her energy into her computer, and turned it on. Just type quickly on the computer.

The three of Yuxing did not disturb her, and whispered in Chinese on the side about the marriage customs of the South Philippine Bin Kingdom, and when they talked about the wonders, the three of them laughed lewdly.

After about ten minutes, the blonde stretched out her arms, which were beginning to go numb, and took a deep breath. said to the three men who had attracted her attention:

"It's finally finished, if it's a little later, the boss will scold me to death, and maybe copy my squid. ”

The blonde smiled and looked at Woo Star, staring at her with wide eyes and a shocked face. Finish what she wants to say in Chinese words with a clear eye. Then she closed her laptop and carefully slipped it into her travel bag.

"It's good that this café also has wifi, otherwise it stinks. It's not easy to find a place with wifi in this ghost place. ”

At this time, Yuxing is a bit of a petrified trend. He pointed to his own mouth, and then to Wei Dong and Chen Shiyi's mouth. Wei Dong and Chen Shiyi both understood what the captain meant, and she understood what he said.

"The marriage customs of the South Philippine country you just talked about are quite interesting, can I discuss this issue with you?"

"Are you from that country?" asked Yuxing.

"The people of the United States. ”

"Do you speak Chinese?"

"I'll go. Isn't that obvious, do you need to ask?"

"You... You—" Yuxing has been completely petrified.

"You are all Chinese, why do you still come to the Philippines to travel at this time?"

"Weishenme, can't we be Chinese-South Filipinos?"

"NO, NO, the Chinese-Filipino people have not withdrawn to China. Just hiding at home and not daring to go out. Therefore, only Chinese who travel to the Philippines are likely to come to Wangcheng to drink coffee. ”

The blonde spread her hands exaggeratedly, her head swayed from side to side, and her blonde hair swayed like a waterfall.

"You know Hua Guo so well?"

"Of course, I'm a reporter for the Chinese capital for the News Corp. Wall Street Journal, and I was sent here three days ago to temporarily serve as a reporter in Manila. My name is Lisa. ”

Lisa held out her hand to Yuxing, who shook her hand.

"Chen Yuxing, a native of Fengjing, Huaguo. ”

"You're bold enough to stay in Manila with all your might. Aren't you afraid that the two countries will fight, and you won't be able to go back?"

"We'll leave tonight, Miss Lisa has covered some valuable news, and is in such a hurry to send a report to the newspaper. ”

"You don't know? You don't see that there's chaos on the streets. More than 23,200 people in the Philippines were assassinated in their homes and more than 92,100 were seriously injured in their homes in the early hours of this morning. No, the streets are full of Filipinos with extra numbers. ”

Yuxing glanced at Wei Dong, Wei Dong nodded, he didn't tell Yuxing about these little things, because he didn't take this matter as a serious matter at all.

"It seems that we really need to hide, so as not to have a misunderstanding. Miss Lisa, if there is a fate for us Huaguo zaijian. ”

Yuxing asked Chen Shiyi to go to the checkout, and he took Wei Dong and the others out of the café. Before she had taken a few steps out of the door, Lisa chased after her from behind.

"Hey, Mr. Chen, don't go so fast!"

"Anything else, Miss Lisa. ”

"I'll tell you the bad news, just now the president of the Philippines has declared a state of emergency across the country, and all roads, airports and ports are temporarily closed, and no one is allowed to leave the country and go out. You may be stuck in Manila. ”

Yuxing stopped and looked at Lisa with a fierce gaze. Lisa was taken aback and involuntarily took a step back.

Just now she saw Chen Yuxing get up and leave the table, and the five big men at the two adjacent tables also got up at the same time, following Chen Yuxing's left and right. I realized that this Chen Yuxing was definitely not simple, either a wealthy businessman in China or a prince of the party in Beijing. This is definitely an excellent interview subject, and the analysis of the depth of Chinese society may also depend on him. After all, the current reporting mission in South Philippine is only temporary.

She is fluent in Chinese, and her main place of work in the future is still in the capital of China. Interview subjects like Chen Yuxing can be met but not sought, and the opportunity cannot be lost, and it will never come again. So she resolutely chased after her.

"How do you know we're leaving in a hurry, can't we wait until the state of emergency is over?"

"Manila is going to conduct a house-to-house search to hunt down the killers who committed the murder in the early hours of the morning. I'm a reporter from the United States, and the police in the South Philippines will still give some face, so it's better for me to join you. Take care of each other. ”

Lisa must have been in China for a long time, and she knew that Chinese people value face very much, so there was still room for what she said, but she didn't say it explicitly, you Chinese people are not good here.

Yuxing's brow furrowed deeply, he wasn't sure if the blonde woman saw something different about them. Although Yuxing is not afraid, he also does not want to cause a lot of trouble because of this troubled woman.

"You want to come with us back to our house?"

"If you can. ”

"You're not afraid that we're bad guys, then..."Yuxing said through gritted teeth.

"I don't think you're bad people. I just wanted to help you. ”

Yuxing looked at the tourists and South Filipino people who were staring at them. Said:

"We'll talk about it in the car. ”

A few people walked briskly towards the gate of the royal city, and from time to time they encountered groups of policemen hurrying away, and each of them was like frost. Yu Xing realized that the situation in Manila City was getting more and more tense, in fact, he should have thought of this a long time ago, and Wei Dong and Chen Shiyi were fearless although they thought about it.

Several people got into the car, and the minibus drove to the villa near the city hall.

"Miss Lisa, are you sure you want to go back with us?"

After getting into the car, Lisa, who was on a whim, was a little scared, and she didn't know if her decision was smart or stupid would kill her.

"If you don't need my help, I can get off here. ”

"Do you think we have a place where we need your help?"

"I ...... I do not know. ”

"You've turned on your phone's location feature. ”

"I—" Lisa was really scared at this time, and she found that everything about her was in the other person's control.

"Do you think your positioning signal can get out of this car?"

"I'm going to get out of the car, and you let me go. Lisa struggled to pull the car door, and she was now sure that her decision was a stupid one.

Her hand reached out, but consciousness left her.
