Chapter 57: The Dancing Girl (9)
Ye Lan walked out of the Brilliant Casino, it was already midnight, although it was early summer, but the night on Meiqi Island, which was surrounded by the sea, was still a little cold, she put her hands in her pockets, and walked in the central block of the island, thinking about the conversation with Ms. Hong just now.
The Red Lady told herself that there was a fourth trialist on the island, Mr. Black. What kind of character is this, why haven't you heard Nancy say it, you must know that the news of this dancing girl in the central block is very well-informed, and even the mysterious white old man she knows something, could it be said that this guy is hidden deeper than the white old man who specializes in intelligence? Ms. Red pointed out what this person was trying to do, which seemed to be a hidden oppression, and she wanted to tell herself that this task was not so simple, and without her help, she didn't even know how many opponents she had. Other than that, does it mean that she wants to join forces with herself to deal with that Mr. Black, so it's really a confrontational mission?
As for the nature of this task, Ye Lan is still not completely sure, but fortunately, this point will not affect her decision.
It's not fun to confront a trialist of the same level, and every trialist has the ability to press the bottom of the box in his hands until now, and if he is not careful, he may be planted in it, and it is the best choice for everyone to be safe in non-confrontational tasks. But Ye Lan also knew very well that it was just an illusory ideal state, the hearts of these trialists had been sharpened into a cold, cruel and ruthless black iron by cruel tasks, even if it was a non-confrontational mission, the trialists often killed each other, maybe to grab more resources, maybe they wanted to get more benefits, or they just didn't want people to disturb their plans.
The trialists of the seventh space are a group of crazy people, they are rational and cruel, like a cold-blooded predator, a cold killing machine, and at the same time, a kind of madness can often be seen in them, for the sake of profit, even possible benefit, they can use any means to take a person's life, and they are not afraid to risk their lives. For example, the current self, I don't know if this is a confrontational mission, I don't know the good and evil of that Mr. Hei's temperament, and I haven't even seen him, Ye Lan decided to kill him, who let him be in the same mission world as himself?
After making the decision for the next step, Ye Lan's heart was a lot easier, and she planned to go to the dock area of Meiqian Island to have a look. After boarding this island, Ye Lan knew that the real dock area here was in the southwest of the island, and the small ferry she took when she came docked at the northeast corner of the island, and she didn't know why the boat boss did this, could it be that their group was smuggled over?
The northwest area of Mae Ha Island is beautiful, surrounded by a blue bay with a clean white beach, and many people play on the beach in the evening or in the morning when the sun is not very hot. The wharf area is another scene, prosperous and busy, freight and passenger traffic is endless, this is an island far from overseas, many daily necessities need to be transported by sea, although there is the help of machinery, but many places still need manual loading and unloading.
In the dock area, Ye Lan saw a familiar figure: "Zhu Yi? Is that you? ”
A strong black man who was sitting on the curb waiting to unload the goods heard someone calling his name, and looked up to see that it was her. Zhu Yi was a little flustered, he was not a person who was good at dealing with others, not to mention that the other party was still a beautiful girl, he didn't know what to do.
Ye Lan bought two cups of coffee at a street stall, sat on the curb like Zhu Yi, and said, "Come, let's have a drink." ”
Zhu Yi wiped his hands on his clothes, took the paper cup, and took a sip of it, the unique bitter taste of coffee poured into his mouth at once, very uncomfortable, what kind of taste is this? But he still endured the discomfort of his taste and made his expression a little more relaxed.
Ye Lan took a small sip and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Zhu Yi hurriedly put down the coffee and said, "I'm here to join a friend, and he introduced me to a job." ”
Ye Lan asked, "Working as a porter at the dock?" ”
Zhu Yi showed a simple smile and said, "Yes, although I am a little tired, I earn a lot, I can earn fifty zinc coins a night!" The words are full of pride, because he is willing to work hard, and after working here for a few days, he has become the favorite porter of the bosses.
Fifty zinc? Why is it so much? It's going to be a night's work! Ye Lan asked, "Who is your boss?" Why did he give you such a point? There was already some dissatisfaction in his tone, Zhu Yi's boss must be a treacherous vampire who made a living by sucking the blood and sweat of the dock porters.
Zhu Yi didn't understand why Ye Lan suddenly got angry, he said cautiously: "My boss is very good, the percentage of the commission is already very low, and others respectfully call him Mr. Hei." ”
Mr. Black? It turned out that he was here, no wonder Nancy didn't know about this person.
The central block is a gathering place for the wealthy, with a variety of entertainment venues and high-end villas for the wealthy. To the north of the central block is a large slum, in which Nancy's little shack is located; To the southwest of the central area, through a small hill to the dock area, most of the people who live here are manual laborers, although their lives are far from rich, but the busy docks give them a lot of job opportunities, as long as they are willing to work hard, they can always fill their stomachs, this can be called the civilian area. The paup's and the other two areas are separated by rammed earth roads only a few miles, but they seem to be separated, and the workers in the slums generally don't go to the central blocks, where they can't afford to consume, and the people in the central districts, and even the slums, don't like to deal with the coolie sellers very much. For those who are struggling to survive at the bottom, although they have to go back to their shacks in the slums when they sleep at night, when they work, they also see what real prosperity is, although those prosperity has nothing to do with them, but because they are a little close, it seems that they have also glued a trace of glory, which is enough to make them disdain the group of coolies. Nancy is such a person, so she doesn't know anything about the situation in the docklands.
Ye Lan looked at the table and said, "I'll be back soon." Zhu Yi did heavy physical work, and eating more meat could provide enough energy for the body, so she searched several streets before finding a delicatessen and bought a few catties of marinated beef. When Ye Lan returned there, Zhu Yi had already started working, she shouted, and put the bag of cooked food next to his backpack.
Seeing a beautiful girl delivering food to Zhu Yi, his co-workers began to coax, and Zhu Yi could only laugh embarrassedly.
What a cute boy, Ye Lan thought to herself, she didn't know when they met again......
