The Old Town was formed by the Great Plague and was quickly abandoned by humans, and after which little attention was paid to the Old Town, and it became a forgotten place.

Qin Tianyuan and his entourage quickly entered the old city, walking cautiously on the dilapidated streets, the once smooth asphalt road has become dilapidated, full of potholes, only occasionally you can see some large potholes filled with sand, so-so.

Qin Tianyuan, who noticed this detail, was suddenly secretly vigilant in his heart, although these roads were broken, there were still people who had repaired them with sand, which showed that someone had been maintaining these roads.

Although it is very perfunctory and the materials used are very primitive, there is an essential difference between repaired and unrepaired, looking at the number and length of repairs, this cannot be spontaneous, but organized to maintain these infrastructures.

In addition, after seeing the inspectors querying information online at the checkpoint before, Qin Tianyuan realized that this old city was not as wild as he thought before.

The buildings of the Old Town are intact and pre-pandemic in their pre-pandemic appearance, with a view of the towering skyscrapers of the old city center. The shape is bizarre, and it is unusually tall.

In the past, people liked to compare with each other, the building you built is taller, I built higher than you, in order to make their building a landmark building in the city, so they admired the strange and surprising shape, and no matter what beauty is not beautiful, as long as the shape is weird, it is a good building.

During that time, the economy was developed, there was overcapacity, and a lot of strange buildings were built in some wealthy places, not for anything else but to attract attention.

It's just that the aesthetics are really not very good, not to mention the ugliness of the creation, and there are many examples of humiliation in circles.

It's just that a hundred years later, the vicissitudes of life, turning their heads are already in the past.

The once prosperous city is already an empty city, the shiny skyscrapers have been dimmed, the once colorful buildings in the city have turned blue-gray, most of the buildings have been surrounded by weeds, and the vines are spreading and multiplying wantonly on the building, wrapping the building, and it looks like a fortress woven by plants from a distance.

Everywhere there is a peeling outer layer of wall skin, revealing the red brick walls inside, and even some buildings have collapsed into ruins.

Even so, the few occupants of the building are largely intact, and although they look gray and black on the outside, they are not left to grow by weeds like other buildings.

The windows of residential buildings are black holes, like weird black holes, and there is no light, but you can see a large number of clothes hanging outside, colorful like flags, declaring their territory.

Of course, in addition to the clothes hanging from the window, the most obvious sign to distinguish whether a building is inhabited or not is to see if vegetables are planted in the open space near the building.

Looking at the vertical and horizontal ridges and the carefully tended cucumber shelves, Qin Tianyuan couldn't help but sigh, "It's good to look at this vibrant place." ”

The scenes Qin Tianyuan saw in front of him were far from the old city he imagined, and he had some illusions for a while.

However, soon reality showed Qin Tianyuan the true side of the old city, correcting his cognition back on the right track.

Not far from them, there was a sudden scream, followed by the shaking of a large number of footsteps, and a roar.

Then there was a gunshot, then screams, and finally a corpse falling from the sky, falling from the roof of the building, and falling to the ground, bloody and fleshy.

The building fell silent, and after a while, several big men with Moxican hairstyles and tattoos on their arms walked out, and a man in shabby clothes and unconscious was still standing in the crowd.

This group of people walked out with a swagger, glanced around arrogantly, glanced at Qin Tianyuan and the others arrogantly, and then walked away.

Qin Tianyuan sighed, "This style of painting is right." ”

Then Qin Tianyuan smiled and looked at Xia Yan, "Big brother, who are you going to find to inquire about the news here, take us to visit." ”

Xia Yan thought for a while with a bitter face, "Then it depends on what you want to do, big brother, are you looking for someone?" Shopping? Or are you looking for a way to do business? ”

"Is there any explanation for that?" Qin Tianyuan immediately made an expression of humbly asking for advice.

"There are four forces in the old city, and the two strongest of them are Punk Metal and Easy Entertainment, Punk Metal does e-waste refurbishment, vehicle modification, and arms trafficking." Xia Yan began to break his fingers to popularize science for others, "This Xiaoyao Entertainment Company operates three things, there is a skin and meat business, and there is a casino, but the big head is actually selling medicine." ”

"The other one is the naturalists, it's a bunch of psychopaths, it's better not to go to them if it's okay."

"The last one left is Weilong Service Agency, buying and selling information, making documents, everything, as long as you are willing to spend money, they can do it for you."

Speaking of this, Xia Yan glanced around a little mysteriously, and whispered to Qin Tianyuan: "It is said that Weilong Service Club has a relationship in the government, and the background is very hard. ”

Qin Tianyuan was secretly vigilant in his heart, but his face was silent, and he patted Xia Yan on the shoulder, "Then let's go to this service club." ”

Xia Yan showed a somewhat embarrassed look, tangled for a moment, and said: "Big brother, there are some things I have to say in advance, this service agency, I don't recognize anything else, I only recognize money, and the asking price is very high." ”

Qin Tianyuan laughed, "Money is not a problem, the brothers still have a little money in their hands." ”

"No, big brother, you misunderstood." Xia Yan had a bitter face, "The money I'm talking about is not a digital currency issued by the government, but a precious metal." ”

Qin Tianyuan was silent for a moment, and then laughed, "It doesn't matter, it's not a matter, you take us to meet someone first." ”

It's not a matter of what you call it, do you have it or not?

Xia Yan complained frantically in his heart, but he didn't dare to object, after all, his life was still in the hands of these people.

The old town is very large, but the population is sparse, and the people living are extremely scattered, so the way to find people is naturally a little long.

The group walked through the ruined buildings for nearly an hour before finding their destination in a villa complex.

Qin Tianyuan saw the entrance gate of the villa area from a distance, the steel gate was not only well preserved, but also hung with a signboard on it, which read "Weilong Service Society".

The five words "Weilong Service Society" on the signboard are flashing neon, which is particularly conspicuous, but there is a line of font below that the light is not lit, which looks like it is in disrepair, and the people of the service agency are too lazy to repair.

Qin Tianyuan walked closer and found that the dark line was written "Welcome", "It seems that this place is not very welcoming to others." ”

Xia Yan once again took on the important task of negotiating, walked to the door and shouted boldly, "Is there anyone?" ”

"Click", a crisp sound of bullet loading.

Zhang Beiguo and Bao Yuan subconsciously pulled out the gun in their arms, and looked coldly, a fat man like a meat ball came out of it, holding a shotgun, and looked at Qin Tianyuan and the others vigilantly.

Qin Tianyuan stepped forward, pressed down the guns of Zhang Beiguo and Baoyuan, and said with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, we are here to do business." ”

The fat man glanced at them, whispered a few words through the intercom, lowered the muzzle of the gun as if he had received an order, and said sullenly: "Where's the money?" ”

Qin Tianyuan paused for a moment, why did he open his mouth and ask for money. So he raised his voice slightly, "I'm here to do business." ”

The fat man repeated again, "What about the money? ”

Qin Tianyuan was a little annoyed, "What? You Gada pay the money first when you do business? ”

The fat man rolled his eyes, "Nonsense, if you don't take the money out first and let me see, how do I know if you have any money?" There is money to take it out."
