0456 Encounter with an elephant
The three of them played until about 8 p.m., and then after tasting a special crab feast in a little-known shop that only locals would know about, Zulu smiled lewdly at Hou Rui, and then ran away with the guide girl. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
As a result, Hou Rui, who was unaccompanied, returned to the hotel by himself, but when he turned on the computer idlely, a message from the ape man in the mailbox jumped out first;
"Wild dog, you are really amazing! I have received the information and photos in the mailbox, these are exactly what I urgently need, the technology that the Americans have been studying for more than ten years has been made by you in this way, hahaha, I am very much looking forward to the kind of chip you said, maybe this time I will be able to make my own tactical exoskeleton." ”
I didn't expect the ape-man to be quite ambitious, and he actually wanted to make his own exoskeleton!
Hou Rui was very surprised, based on his observations in the facility, if he wanted to develop such a project, the demand for research funds and resources must be similar to that of a black hole, I really don't know how the ape man supported this huge project independently, could it be that there is an organization behind the ape man to support him, but it's not right! If the organization was supporting the ape to do research and development, then these materials should have been in the hands of the ape man a long time ago.
Thinking about it, Hou Rui feels like he has no clue!
Now that Hou Rui has more contact with the members of the organization, the more he feels that there is a fog in front of him, and everything seems to be a conspiracy layer after layer, making it impossible for people to grasp the truth of the matter.
"Maybe this is the secret of the organization's operation!" Hou Rui said to himself, and simply stopped wasting that brain.
Next, when Hou Rui was lying on the bed, boredly fiddling with the remaining two chips, he was imagining how much this little thing would be worth when it entered the black market, $200,000 or $500,000.
As soon as he thought of this, Hou Rui suddenly slapped his head hard! It turned out that he had been ignoring the energy of this little thing, since the apes said that these materials were very valuable, then why couldn't he hand them over to the organization for money like a dollar bill, maybe then he could immediately make up 10 million US dollars.
So Hou Rui immediately jumped up excitedly, when he used his mailbox to send a price assessment application to the organization, only ten minutes later, a pure black medium-sized drone appeared like a ghost outside the window of the room of Hou Rui's hotel.
After waiting for Rui to open the window, the drone flew in quietly, and the camera placed at the bottom of the drone was first aimed at Hou Rui, and after confirming the identity, he turned around the room roughly, and finally stopped at the dining table steadily.
A long time ago, Hou Rui had seen the ape-man operate together, so he barely knew the process, and then he took out the remaining two chips and the USB flash drive together, but when Hou Rui was about to put them all in the sealed box under the drone, a new idea suddenly appeared in his head.
So Hou Rui's fingers moved slightly, and the two chips he put in the drone box became one, and the other was quietly sandwiched between his fingers by Hou Rui, and he put his hand into the pocket of the bathrobe. After the black drone flew away, Hou Rui took out the last chip and laughed darkly.
About an hour later, Hou Rui had just come out of the shower, and an email had already come with good news, according to the organization's assessment, the data and chips in the USB flash drive were estimated at 900,000 US dollars, so that it could directly make up enough for the 10 million dollars that Hou Rui needed, which is the most important thing for Hou Rui. So Hou Rui fell asleep with a smile all night, and the killing life of several years was finally coming to an end......
The next morning, Zulu showed up on time for the first time, when the parade route in downtown Seattle was closed by the police, and the parade floats, countless performance teams, and crowds of onlookers appeared in the streets, and the Assomption festival parade officially began after a salute.
Snowflake-like pieces of confetti began to fall from the sky to the roaring music, and four mounted police officers cleared the way for the entire procession, followed by a guard of honor and cheerleaders from nearby high school students, and directly behind these students was a kilometer-long make-up procession.
In the procession, these people are either dressed up as religious allusion figures, or they are dressed up as various animals, in short, how to attract people's attention, and they also march and move, and dance to the music.
"Whew...... Wow, pop, pop, pop ......."
I saw a ball of flames with a range of 1-2 meters, but they were ejected from the mouth of a middle-aged man wearing a tyrannosaurus costume, so it immediately caused screams and applause from the crowd.
On the other side, a man in the shape of Jesus carrying a huge cross is walking with difficulty, and next to him, a man wearing the armor of a centurion of the Roman Empire is carrying a spear and keeps gesturing at Jesus' ribs, recreating a famous scene in the Bible.
It seems that there are so many such examples, there are too many to mention, and the tourists on both sides of the street are also very enjoyable to watch, and from time to time there will be a burst of exclamations and cheers.
The procession is still moving, followed by the makeup parade crowd, are those floats at the bottom of the box, each of these floats is a separate theme, of course, or in a religious position, with a small number of entertainment items, the decoration on these cars is even more colorful, the fragrant beauty is simply overwhelming, attracting countless cameras and mobile phones in the crowd are also constantly shooting.
There were too many people at the scene, as if the residents of the entire Seattle were concentrated on these streets, so Hou Rui and Zulu were separated in less than 20 minutes, and Hou Rui had to hold his camera and record those wonderful, thrilling and cheerful moments.
It's a pity that in such a cheerful atmosphere, discordant voices will always exist!
“…… I told you to go away, didn't you hear?"
"yes, I'm sorry, I'm leaving. ”
"Get out into the alley over there, and don't come out again until the parade is over, I'm not kidding, or I'll give you a taste of my batons." ”
Although the scene was extremely noisy, Hou Rui still heard this conversation by chance, and when Hou Rui turned his head, his eyes crossed the crowd, and he immediately saw a scene behind the crowd of onlookers.
A white-haired beggar in tattered clothes, he was sitting quietly in the corner, just smiling and watching the parade like everyone else, but when a uniformed policeman spotted the beggar, the police unceremoniously drove the beggar away, telling him to hide in the dark alley, not to touch the image of Seattle in front of countless tourists.
Seeing this infuriating scene, Hou Rui didn't say a word, and immediately took a picture of him with his camera, but the camera flash alarmed the policeman, and then the angry policeman walked straight to Hou Rui: "Hey! What are you photographing? Delete the photo immediately, and say you, Dongfang boy." ”
Of course, it is impossible for Hou Rui to sit still, and now in the crowded state of people on the street, the police want to cross the crowd to arrest Hou Rui, which is even more difficult than ascending to the sky, so the policeman has not been able to get close to Hou Rui, and Hou Rui has disappeared into the crowd.
A few minutes later, Hou Rui had completely dumped the policeman, and just as Hou Rui forgot about this unhappiness and was about to resume filming, a crisp elephant cry suddenly came, "Hmm......" A crisp elephant cry suddenly came, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. Hou Rui turned his head to see that on a float that had just entered people's sight, it was actually full of various animals.
The elephant with its long trunk and barking, the tiger roaring at the crowd, and of course, the little monkey in a waistcoat and a top hat, I don't know who was so creative to bring out a small zoo.
Of course, the animals were kept in iron cages, but this did not affect the enthusiasm of the people, especially the children in the crowd, who immediately screamed excitedly at the sight of the animals, and took advantage of the high atmosphere to throw stacks of flyers at the crowd by several Asians standing among the animals.
Just when Hou Rui twisted the aperture of the camera, ready to give the animals a few wonderful close-ups, a familiar face suddenly appeared in Hou Rui's viewfinder; among the animal trainers waving between the iron cages, a thin boy once had a relationship with Hou Rui, and even the short-tailed monkey Hou Rui who was squatting on the boy's shoulder remembered it impressively.
How did he end up here?
Hou Rui's heart instantly spent a question mark, everyone is also a member of the organization, the last time we met Hou Rui was in Kaohsiung, but now the elephant has appeared, does that mean that he is performing some task? Unfortunately, now Hou Rui has no way to ask the elephant, so he can only force down the question in his heart, looking at the float where the elephant is standing is gradually moving away.
The Assomption Parade lasted more than two hours, and when the main procession completed its route and began to enter the open woods of Lincoln Park under the guidance of the police, a variety of subsequent celebrations began.
When Hou Rui followed the crowd into Lincoln Park, he continued to take pictures and quietly search for the whereabouts of the animal floats. In the midst of countless stalls, stages and cheerful crowds, Hou Rui saw the tall Asian elephant in a corner after a while.
