Half an hour later, Lin Chi and the others, who had just arrived in the City of Chaos, were given a new place to live.

The safe house, which I bought with the stolen money, is a small two-story apartment, and the lawn in front of it is full of lush weeds, and it looks like it has not been taken care of for a long time.

After purchasing the safe house, Lin Chi immediately commissioned an engineer to convert the building into a barracks, and during the renovation, the three of them rested on the lawn in front of them, chatting without a word.

"Commander, is this the reason for the robbery?" Mason looked at the old building in front of him, whose walls were covered with vines and plants, like a ghost castle.

"That's right, we need start-up capital." Lin Chi's answer was unusually straightforward.

Once you get a safe house in the game, you get a completely safe hideout, except in the event of a large-scale story event, even if the player sleeps in it the whole time.

Spent $80,000 to buy this safe house in the south of the chaotic city, and there are still 100,000 yuan left in the share of the robbery just now.

At this time, all the money had been stuffed into Lin Chi's backpack, plus another 100,000 US dollars obtained from the bounty mission, and he had become the richest player in the game not long after he entered the game.

The previous battle can be said to be thrilling, with Jane's assistance, it is basically like chopping melons and vegetables, without the slightest pressure, and easily got rid of the pursuit of Silver Shield.

While the engineer was renovating the safe house, Lin Chi took out the business card that the "jackal" stuffed into him, only to see that it read:

Jackal.

Professional banking services.

Contact URL: PHUB-333.

"Ha, this is the first time I've seen this kind of financial management." Lin Chi laughed out loud.

This website called "PHUB", he seems to have seen it in the thirteen districts in the field, as for what the full name is, Lin Chi, who has no interest in those adult websites in the thirteen districts, did not pay attention to the details in this regard.

Since he doesn't have a computer at hand, he still needs to do some preparation to contact the jackal. Before the renovation of the safe house was completed, Lin Chi had already bought a second-hand laptop in a nearby store, and by the way, he also opened the network cable of the safe house.

With the completion of the barracks reconstruction, the long-lost "war horn" appeared in his skill bar again, but this time, Lin Chi did not start to find others to fight as usual, but sat in front of the coffee table in the living room of the safe house, turned on his laptop and connected to the wireless network, logged in to the PHUB website, and began to try to contact the jackal.

As a website used by criminals to communicate, PHUB disguised as an adult URL full of "some kind of video", but the actual situation was not so simple, Lin Chi ignored the attractive video covers on the homepage, clicked directly into the forum, registered a new account, and began to observe the chat content in this forum.

Like similar websites, PHUB's forums are also full of content such as "seeking resources", "seeking seeds", and "good people's lives are safe", but after some observation, Lin Chi finally found the clue:

Some users of PHUB like to repeat strange "codes":

Watching a group of people repeat the three letters "GKD" under a picture, Lin Chi clicked the mouse to pull down the page, and found that the vast majority of users used uppercase letters, and only a few lowercase "gkd" seemed very abrupt.

"Is this some kind of code?"

Lin Chi, who was sitting at the table, was thinking, but saw that Jane had already blushed and looked away, and Mason, who was standing behind the sofa, also had a strange light in his eyes:

"Commander, it's best not to browse this kind of site in front of minors." Mason reminded.

"No way, this is the contact information left by the jackal." Lin Chi sighed and typed the lowercase "gkd" in the reply column below.

- Nothing happened.

"Do you need to repeat it?"

Looking at the large string of repetitive messages on it, Lin Chi typed in the lowercase gkd three letters again, and when he typed these three letters for the fifth time, the original adult website on the screen finally disappeared.

He was then directed to another page.

The bells and whistles of the PHUB are gone, replaced by a burning fire icon, and this time the page is very rudimentary, looking like the embryonic stage of the forum page in the eighties and nineties of the twentieth century.

However, for the criminals of the City of Chaos, the flashy interface is pointless, after all, they don't care about the style of the web page at all, they just need a hidden communication channel.

Looking at the title of "Welcome to GKD" at the top of the page, Lin Chi resisted the urge to complain and contacted the No. 333 user of this forum.

"Who?" The user who used the wolf's avatar quickly sent a message: "Are you looking for a job?" ”

"We just worked together, and you gave me a business card." Lin Chi quickly tapped on the keyboard and typed out a string of words.

"Oh, it's you......" The jackal also reacted immediately: "I saw the son of a bitch's army firing over there, and I thought you died there." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm still alive." Lin Chi asked, "The cooperation just now was very pleasant, if I can, I want to buy some information from you." ”

"What information?" The jackal asked.

"Do you have any impressions of a drug called 'psychedelic'?" Lin Chi stated the purpose of his trip.

- Searching for information about psychedelics in the game is exactly what he has done this time in the game. Obviously, the quickest way to inquire about this kind of news is to talk to well-informed criminals.

"Is it 'medicine'?" As an "old fritter" who has mixed up on the road, the jackal naturally knows very well what the name LSD represents.

"yes, I need this right now." Lin Chi responded immediately.

"Why do you still take drugs, you kid? Lao Tzu still thinks you are a good person. The text sent by the jackal was full of disappointment: "Aren't you still with a child? Don't take the pills, be normal. ”

"Are you interested in the kids I'm carrying?" Lin Chi asked.

"Nope." The jackal came to a negative conclusion in an instant, so fast that one wondered if he had been prepared.

- Does this guy have any information?

Since he was not sure if he could get information from the jackal, Lin Chi chatted a few more words, and was about to look for information in this forum, just when he was about to leave the private chat room, the jackal sent another message:

"It's been a pleasure working with you, man. If you really need this information, you can go to user No. 21 and ask, he specializes in this......"

"Oh, thanks." After saying goodbye to the jackal, Lin Chi left the chat room, returned to the secret website called "GKD", and began to contact user No. 21.

The so-called "dark web" refers to a collection of web pages that are hidden from the world's eyes, cannot be accessed through ordinary searches and links, and can only be accessed through dynamic web page technology.

In the modern Internet, a large part of the web pages belong to the category of the "dark web", such as the encrypted page entered when registering a new account, which is also a web page that cannot be searched, but in the dark web, there are also many forums or illegal transaction pages dedicated to criminals, "GKD" is one of them.

It is difficult for ordinary PHUB users to find the existence of GKD, and judging from the abbreviation on the page, this so-called GKD is actually composed of the English abbreviation of "Dragon-Kill-Group" upside down.

Criminals hiding in the city of chaos call themselves dangerous dragon slayers, and this forum called GKD is their secret communication space.

"No. 21......"

Entering the number provided by the jackal, Lin Chi searched for the No. 21 user of this forum, and the avatar of that guy was a transparent glass bottle filled with white pills, and the implied content was self-evident.

The GKD forum only has an avatar and does not display the user's nickname, and Lin Chi doesn't know what the other party should call, so he just said hello tentatively: "Hello." ”

User No. 21 seems to have set up an automatic reply, and instantly sent a message:

"Welcome to the Freud Clinic, please enter the name or code of the medicine if you need it."

Lin Chi immediately typed in the word "psychedelics", and the other party's reply was still very fast:

"The drug is sold-out, please select another product."

- That is, drugs called "psychedelics" were once sold here?

Realizing that the information provided by the Blood Blade did not seem to be groundless, Lin Chi, who was lazily leaning on the sofa, straightened his back, tapped on the keyboard at an extremely fast speed, and asked, "Where did the hallucinogens come from?" ”

"This drug is sold out, please select another product."

User 21 didn't mean to answer the question at all, but continued to repeat the preset line mechanically: "This drug is out of stock." ”

"This thing's IQ is too low." Lin Chi complained.

If you can bring in the top hacker Darien, you may be able to steal information from the other party, but this time the entourage that I randomly found was Mason and Jane, and the hacker girl was still in the private house area and couldn't enter the map at all.

So, what's next?

Staring at the meaningful avatar of user No. 21, Lin Chi casually typed in a very common drug name (skipped here to avoid harmony), and this time, the other party quickly replied:

"XXXX, it is still in stock, please select a trading location."

"Commander, you want to sell drugs?" Mason coughed.

"I'd like to meet with this '21st user,' or meet his men." Lin Chi told his entourage the battle plan: "I need information about psychedelics. ”

Of course, he doesn't want to be a drug lord, but he just plans to get information from user No. 21, just chatting with this "artificial retard", and besides, there will be no results for a hundred years, and only when he sees a living person, can he have the opportunity to get information.

However, it is not so easy to meet these elusive illegal businessmen.

"Alright, you guys take a rest, then do some preparations, and set off in an hour."

After negotiating the time and place of the transaction with user No. 21, Lin Chi turned off the computer and leaned on the sofa, and began to close his eyes and recuperate.

……

After snatching a Toyota SUV from the road, Lin Chi drove with two entourages to the slums in the south of the city.

In fact, the transaction with user 21 will not start until two hours later, and what he has to do now is to increase his troops. After all, in the face of frenzied "businessmen", strong firepower is also necessary.

In the search for his retinue, the jackal once again provided valuable information, and following the route provided by the bald man, Lin Chi soon found the secret arms dealer in a small dilapidated shop.

The vendors here are not only selling weapons, but also buying and selling "human resources". Perhaps due to inflation, the price of goods in the City of Chaos has also risen this time, and the price of elite mercenaries has increased to 7,000 dollars per person.

However, for Lin Chi, who has $200,000 in his hand, it is not difficult to hire these elusive elite soldiers.

"Ten first." Lin Chi said and took out seven stacks of dollars and put them on the table, and asked the bearded businessman for his needs: "You buy ten elite mercenaries here, and you also come with two heavy body armor, right?" ”

"There is no such offer." The fat man with a big beard, his small eyes were round, and the beard on his face kept trembling: "Who told you?" ”

"User No. 333 of GKD." Lin Chi said the introducer's codename.

"Oh, jackal, boy...... You're an acquaintance of his. The bearded man's attitude took a 180-degree turn, and he nodded briskly: "Okay, I'll give you two sets of body armor and ten grenades, I still owe that guy a favor." If you are his friend, you can give you a discount. ”

Lin Chi took the small remote control that could summon elite mercenaries from the bearded man, and then asked casually, "What favor?" ”

- For the somewhat weird robber, Lin Chi is still a little interested, and when he encounters an opportunity to understand the "game plot", he will naturally not miss it.

"That kid is a good guy, last time my daughter was kidnapped, he was the one who rescued my daughter." Speaking of this, the bearded man raised the corners of his mouth and showed an approving smile: "Don't look at his ghostly appearance, he is actually a good person, at least in this circle, he is definitely the best one." ”

"I can't see it at all......" Jane couldn't help but speak.

"Little girl, were you frightened by him? He's really grumpy, but he's also a good guy. ”

The bearded man raised his hand to look at his watch as he spoke, then waved his hand to Lin Chi and the others, and decisively issued an order to evict customers: "Let's leave quickly after I finish buying, I still have to do business." ”

- Is that guy a good guy?

When leaving the underground exchange disguised as a store, Lin Chi's ears seemed to be echoing the boss's words, and Mason, who had been silent during the transaction, finally expressed his opinion:

"I don't think bank robbers are going to be good people."

"Who knows, there are two sides to human beings." Lin Chi smiled: "Maybe that guy is really a good man." ”

Now, the pre-trade preparations have been completed, and the next thing to do is to go to the trading location specified by user 21.
