Chapter 311: Contact
The sun rises and the sun sets.
This is a habit accumulated by human beings for tens of thousands of years of survival and reproduction. Of course, after the invention of electricity, this habit gradually became blurred......
The city is lifeless during the day, and only after night does it glow with the only life, noise, light, and the crowds of people roaming the streets, they are intertwined into a noisy scene, every day.
In the commercial area, there is a very famous alley, it is not very wide, on both sides of this alley, there are stalls, that is, the kind of stalls selling barbecue, beer, and department stores produced in unlicensed workshops, according to the tradition for many years, this place is still called "night market".
It's very crowded here, especially in this season when it's almost summer, and the smell of heavy spices mixed with the perfume and sweat on people's bodies can make people feel a headache.
But people still like to come here to hang out, probably because it is easy to feel the sense of being surrounded by their own kind, after all, people are still social animals in their bones.
"A meatloaf!" In front of a small stall, a man in a hoodie said.
The boss looked at the customer, a little curious why he still wore a hat in this weather, but it didn't matter, a child of this age, soaked in the ark game all day long, more or less secondary two, maybe he felt that this would make him appear more mysterious.
"5 pieces!" The boss expertly packed a meatloaf and handed it to the young-sounding man.
"Thank you!" The man said, and then, with a turn, left the stall.
"Okay." The boss responded with a smile, and then he was stunned: "Hey?!" Hey, boy, you haven't paid yet! β
The crowd was crowded, and in just an instant, the person disappeared into the sea of people.
"! Bad luck! The boss scolded, and then embarrassedly smiled at the next customer who had just arrived.
In the crowd, Lu Yuan took the meatloaf and stuffed it into his mouth very carefully, he hadn't eaten for a day, and the continuous running and using skills made his body extremely tired, but during the day, he didn't dare to rashly come out to find food, so he could only keep hiding, digesting the remnants of the anesthetic in his body while waiting for night to fall.
After 8 p.m., the people who had been playing games all day finally felt a little tired, so they finally came to the street to find something to eat.
He had no cash, and in this day and age there was very little cash in circulation, and most transactions were made with money in his account that was converted directly online. And at this juncture, Lu Yuan will definitely not be stupid enough to use his account, so it is estimated that in 5 minutes, the people of the ark will be on top.
Soon, Lu Yuan finished eating the first meal of the day, the cramps in his stomach eased a little, his hands were tied with bandages, I don't know where he got them, and the outside was wrapped in a black glove, so that the oozing blood stains were not so dazzling.
The wound is deep enough to see the bone, and there is no infection, but it is not known how long it will last. The morning of the neighborhood fighting, without the slightest ripple in the city, it seemed that the Ark did not want the citizens to know that they had begun to pursue the Apostles.
Maybe they don't want to disturb the public opinion that just favored them now, or maybe it's some other reason, in short, their profile picture hasn't appeared on the wanted notice yet.
For the time being, this is pretty good news.
Lu Yuan needed rest, medicine, food, money, and a phone call.
"I told you, we're just friends!" A girl walked in the middle of the road and shouted into the phone in her hand: "He was at my house that day, just repairing the water pipes for me!" β
On the other end of the phone could be her boyfriend, or her husband, but in short, from the girl's tone and her words, you can hear a colorful story.
"Well, if you think so, I can't help it, goodbye!" The girl hung up the phone angrily, and then her face quickly eased, and she began to quickly use the mobile phone's chat software to talk to someone, as if the quarrel with her boyfriend just now was a trivial episode.
At this time, the girl felt a hand pat her right shoulder.
"Huh?" The girl was stunned and turned in that direction, but there was only a crowd behind her.
"Maybe someone accidentally touched me." The girl thought so, and turned her head around.
βοΌοΌοΌβ Suddenly, a series of greetings appeared in her mind, because her phone was gone...... His hand was still holding the phone, but it was gone.
The girl looked around blankly, as if she hadn't reacted to the strange unfolding.
Ten minutes later, on the third floor of a building in the business district, this building is a shopping mall, the huge neon sign is constantly changing colors, and Lu Yuan is standing in front of the neon, almost overwhelmed by the chaotic light.
He made a phone call......
"Beep~beep~" After a few busy tones.
"Heyββββ" A voice came, it was Wang Wu's.
From beginning to end, Wang Wu did not have too deep intersections with Lu Yuan and the others, and all their conversations were conducted in the ark, so he was also the safest among the apostles.
"[X] has started to close the net, has Lu Li contacted you?" Lu Yuan asked.
As I said before, if Wang Wu is the safest one, then Lu Li must only contact him to have a place to live, as for her little brothers in Linghuang Middle School...... Although they are loyal, they are all a group of children, and if they really fall into the hands of that woman, it is estimated that they can easily get a lot of information.
But......
"Lu Li? Who is Lu Li? Wang Wu said.
Lu Yuan was silent for a while: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake." He said, and then he suddenly added: "By the way, the other day, did someone copy you to sleep?" β
"There are a few kids who are always chattering, but ...... What does this have to do with you, who are you? Wang Wu said with some annoyance.
Click!
Lu Yuan hung up the phone.
And then in this neon light, quietly looking at the opposite side of the street crowd.
There is an alley where food waste is piled up, and on this snack street, the amount of food waste produced is staggering more than you think, so almost no one will go into the alley.
One minute......
Two minutes......
In the 16th minute after the phone was hung up, several people in ordinary clothes suddenly appeared in the alley, and under Lu Yuan's gaze, they began to quickly and covertly rummage through the garbage cans.
