At eight o'clock in the morning, since the start of this game, Lin Chi set foot on the land of Staryu Island for the first time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Located southwest of Manhattan, the island is much larger than Manhattan but much less populated. With a permanent population of only about 500,000, the island is "sparsely populated" compared to the rest of New York.

Lin Chi drove through the streets of Starton Island, which is naturally not comparable to the bustling city of Manhattan, but by 2050, there will also be a very advanced industrial area.

Next to the industrial area are small commercial areas, as well as intricate residential areas.

To find the secret base that Seven said about in such a large area is to find a needle in a haystack, and even if you know that the base is located somewhere on the western side of the island, it is pure fantasy to find the specific location.

In this situation, Lin Chi did not rush to the west side of the island, but after checking the minimap, he drove a blue Mitsubishi off-road vehicle to the nearby newspaper office.

"Are you going to explode?" Crazy Evan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, stared at the street outside the car window with great interest, and the buildings that seemed to be structurally complete obviously fit his needs.

"Not yet." Lin Chi shook his head and let the jeep, which used the autopilot system, slowly drive past the street.

The first thing he had to do now was to collect intelligence, but this time, Lin Chi didn't bother to find any intelligence merchants, but just arrived in front of a low three-story building nearby by car, and looked at the old signboard hanging on the gray building:

The newspaper "Start Island Herald".

"Comrade, are you interested in gossip news?" Crazy Ivan stared at the billboard in bewilderment.

"No, I just need information." Lin Chi smiled.

This newspaper seems to be very unpopular, and in fact the newspaper they publish is indeed very unpopular. But even in 2050, there will still be a market for their physical newspapers, and sales of digital editions are not low.

As for the reason, it is also very simple - the news in their newspaper is very gimmicky just by looking at the headline, which fully satisfies the curiosity of contemporary readers.

Titles such as Shock! The mayor of New York actually did such a thing! or eye-catching headlines like "Sports Star's Three-Year-Old Girlfriend Is a Man" appear on the front pages of their newspapers every day.

Although the veracity of these news is debatable, citizens also need this kind of almost fabricated news as a pastime on the way to work.

And what Lin Chi has to do now is to find out the information he needs from these seemingly nonsense news.

- If there is a secret base hidden on Start Island, even if the regular large media find clues, they will not be able to report it. On the contrary, this kind of unreliable newspaper may provide some clues.

Parked the car in the parking lot in front of the newspaper building, Lin Chi didn't even get out of the car, and with the help of the electronic eye, which had been upgraded to level 10 with the authority level, he cracked the computer of the editor-in-chief of the newspaper on the second floor through the wall.

He quickly scanned all the headlines in it, then filtered out the content related to Staryu Island. In a bunch of "Staryu Island May Sink in Three Years", "Horror! There are large tentacle monsters hidden under the island", and began to look for useful information.

"These guys can really talk nonsense......" Lin Chi sighed.

It took him a full three minutes to finally find the information he was interested in from a pile of obviously nonsense news:

What is hidden in the uninhabited area on the west side of Staryu Island? The veteran driver will guide you through the maze. 》

Seeing this line of headlines, Lin Chi began to quickly read the following news content, and as expected, this news was also the same as other news in the Pioneer Daily, revealing a sense of nonsense:

As you may know, our island is one of the least populated suburbs in New York City. But have you ever wondered why there are so few permanent residents on Start Island?

Is it because the economy is not developed enough? No, don't forget that this is New York City! Is it because there are so many gangs? Don't be funny, since the appearance of electronic guards, how can there be a few gang members on the street who dare to come out?

So, today, why are there only so many people on Start Island?

Pioneer special correspondent Fan. Mr. Darkholm, that is, me, after a period of investigation, has finally come to a conclusion.

And this conclusion is about to subvert your worldview:

Underneath this island, there is a huge military base, and the nuclear radiation from that base is slowly killing all the creatures on the island!

And the entrance to this base is likely to be located on the southwest side of the island, on the dirty beach that has been deserted all year round!

……

Reading this, Lin Chi frowned slightly, ignored a lot of nonsense below, and focused his attention on the key point of "dirty beaches that are unoccupied all year round".

By this day and age, New York City's pollution measures should be long enough to clean up the heavily polluted beaches, and it would not be surprising to turn the place into a tourist attraction.

In this case, it is obviously very unreasonable that there are still "dirty beaches that are unoccupied all year round". According to the content in the news, this beach is supposed to be located on the southwest side of the island, and it is also in the same direction as the seventh investigation.

- That special guest reporter who is full of nonsense, maybe he is really right?

Thinking of this, Lin Chi also immediately started the car again and galloped towards the southwest side of Staryu Island.

Half an hour later, the blue-shelled SUV arrived at the beach mentioned in the news.

As the special reporter said, this beach is particularly desolate, the beach is full of garbage washed from nowhere, there is no sign of houses within a radius of one kilometer, and the few buildings in the distance look very old.

"Is this place really a full manifestation of the erosion of capitalism, and the rich businessmen are so stingy that they refuse to manage the environment?" The bomb expert, who had just gotten out of the car, touched his shiny bald head, and his voice was full of disdain: "Sooner or later, the US imperialist will be finished!" ”

"I don't think it's like 'not governing,' it's 'not allowed to be governed.'" Lin Chi crossed his arms and looked at this desolate no-man's land.

Even if he is not a real estate businessman, he can see that the scenery here is actually quite good. If you buy this beach, get rid of the rubbish on it, and build up a good transportation and recreation facilities nearby, it can definitely become a good tourist attraction.

Large real estate developers such as the "Trump family", which is currently in full swing, will certainly not ignore the development potential of this area, and as for why no one buys this land, it should also be banned. Other words......

"Do you want to blow up the military bases of the US imperialists?" Lin Chi said with a smile.

"Of course, hurry!" Crazy Ivan looked impatient, lifted his white vest, revealing a string of explosives tied to his waist: "I'm ready!" ”

Seeing the dangerous equipment on this person's body, Lin Chi quietly took a few steps back: "I didn't let you blow yourself up......"

"Even if you die, you have to die worthwhile!" Crazy Ivan said seriously.

"Okay, whatever you want."

Lin Chi nodded helplessly, activated his electronic eye again, and began to scan the underground of this area.

- Strangely, he didn't find anything.

Not only is there no shadow of a military base, but the area doesn't even have controls for gas and underground water pipes, and it's like a wasteland that modern civilization can't touch. But......

"Is there something obscuring the observation of the electronic eye?"

Sensing that something was not quite right, Lin Chi walked briskly towards the beach.

As soon as he stepped onto the dirty sand, he noticed an imperceptible metallic glow shining on the stone wall next to him.

"This is what you call the entrance to the base?" Crazy Ivan rushed over quickly, looking at the hidden metal door.

Lin Chi didn't say anything, just frowned slightly, staring at the security lock by the door that was judged to be "broken" by the electronic eye.

- It seems that someone else has already found this place one step ahead.

In other words, you may be about to face a big war.
