Chapter 221: Repeated Horizontal Jumps

"Cooperate with them?"

“…… Factory...... Tell them ......"

The voice coming from the eavesdropper was clear.

Luo Ruyan's plan is simple.

Let the boss lead Xia Chuluo's team to a factory, and he will take care of the rest.

It's getting dark.

The city didn't escape the law of cloudy skies, and the inky clouds began to gather over the city, making the floating city in the sky look even hazy.

Rolling thunder continued to sound in the sky.

Xia Chuluo came to the front desk on the first floor, handed the boss a stack of banknotes, and took out a photo.

The photo is Luo Ruyan.

She stared at the boss's eyes, her expression was indifferent, and she asked in a deep voice: "The person in the photo was staying in your hotel not long ago, and he also appeared in the surveillance screen, I want to know the news about him." ”

The innkeeper was instructed and naturally understood the identity of the girl in front of him.

He looked embarrassed, seemed to be very reluctant, and said in a low voice: "Girl, the most necessary professional ethics for our business is to keep the customer's information confidential. ”

"I can add money."

Xia Chuluo gently placed the photo on the table at the front desk.

The voices of the two communicating were low.

Thunder roared outside.

None of the guests sitting in the lobby on the first floor to rest or chat were paying attention.

The boss thought of what Luo Ruyan had said, and tried to pretend to be a little bit like it.

His expression changed for a while, looking at the photo on the table, as if he had struggled for a long time, and finally slowly turned the photo over, covered it on the table, and said, "I do know some news." ”

"Say it."

"The guest doesn't show up very often on weekdays, he stays in the room on the second floor, sometimes people look for him, he doesn't seem to be a local, he just came from another city, I was delivering breakfast once, I overheard him, he ...... It seems to be hiding from someone. ”

"And then?"

"On that day, another man came looking for him, and not long after, the group came out of my hotel, and when they checked out, they said something like 'it's done, and it won't be tracked again.'"

"Did they say where they were going?"

"This ......" The boss hesitated for a moment, and then stopped.

Xia Chuluo took out a thick paper bag from his shoulder bag, put it on the table, and slowly pushed it in front of the boss.

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he looked around, and saw that no one noticed it, and most of them were looking outside, so he silently put away the paper bag gently.

"I vaguely heard that they were going to a factory not far from here to set up a base, as if they were planning something bigger."

"Which factory is it?"

"Yes......"

"Don't lie to me, the security in this city is not very good." Xia Chuluo stared at the shopkeeper's eyes, "In this place, it is very common for a few people to die. ”

"How can it be, you have to do things after receiving the money, I still know this, and I will definitely not lie to you." The shopkeeper laughed dryly.

There is no Executive Directorate in the city.

Security still relies on robots left over from decades ago.

The Floating City rules everything in Canterlot, perhaps deliberately to bring chaos to the city.

Those robots are sluggish, unintelligent, and have low combat effectiveness, except for the role of daily patrols, they are simply decorations at other times.

The shopkeeper took the money and looked at Xia Chuluo's back slowly going upstairs, feeling uneasy in his heart.

It's impossible to say you're not afraid.

But after all...... Luo Ruyan said that they gave more money.

……

At the beginning of the summer, they acted.

That factory is naturally fake.

But Luo Ruyan will not be too far away from that factory, he is trying to complete his transformation from a prey to a hunter, so there is a high probability that he will personally guard the side of that factory.

"Boom ——!"

A thunderbolt pierced the sky.

The old city in the dark of night ushered in a moment of light.

The fine and dense rainwater ticked on the broken steel pipes.

Colorful neon lights lit up at night, shining on the sides of the rusty streets, and the hazy rain and fog made the light strips look a little more blurry.

People holding black umbrellas slowly disappeared into the dark rain.

"The factory has been abandoned for a long time, the weeds are knee-deep, and there are two buildings next to the factory that are more suitable for observation, one with six floors and the other with five floors."

Someone in the team said about the topography of the factory.

At the beginning of the summer, they did not leave from the main entrance.

They walked through the window.

Darkness is the best protective color.

Before leaving, in order to create a little confusing effect, Xia Chuluo also went downstairs and told the shopkeeper to make breakfast early tomorrow, and they had to go out to run errands at about five o'clock in the morning.

So now the sound of the shopkeeper making a phone call came from everyone's headphones.

"Mr. Luo, they are going out at five o'clock tomorrow morning, and it seems that they are preparing to raid you before dawn......"

This shopkeeper collects money but does things for others.

It can only be said that either this boss repeatedly jumps sideways and eats the money on both sides.

Or, at the beginning of the summer, Luo didn't give enough money.

Lu Wen prefers the latter.

The security of this city is not very good, it can be said that there is no such thing at all, in this kind of place, unless they think they have lived too long, no one dares to jump sideways repeatedly.

"Next to the factory, the five-story building is a hotel, and there are a lot of people coming and going, which is easy to expose, while the six-story building is just an ordinary residential building."

"If I'm not mistaken, Luo Ruyan is likely to be somewhere on the top floor of that six-story residential building."

The team was analyzing Luo Ruyan's possible position.

Looking down from the top floor of the sixth floor, the entire factory is in view.

It is indeed a unique geographical location.

But Xia Chuluo frowned, pondered for a moment, and said: "These two buildings are too obvious, and there is no suitable escape direction around, Luo Ruyan is a very cautious person, even if the geographical location is good and there is no escape channel, he will not choose, check if these two buildings have ventilation ducts or something." ”

"No, there won't be ventilation ducts in this type of building."

"Look carefully, this area, you can see the factory, and it is easy to escape, such as the helicopter parked on the roof, the canal around, the proximity to the mechanical deacon, and the sewer manhole cover...... Forget it, Luo Ruyan shouldn't be able to drill into the sewer. ”

Luo Ruyan is a long-term pampered person.

He lives in the upper echelons of society, has a wide range of friends, conceals his methods, and is the top presence of the Executive Board.

Sewers won't be his first choice.

He is more accustomed to taking advantage of the cover of his surroundings, such as crowds, and then night.

"In fact, he may not be able to see the factory with the naked eye, and he can also observe in all directions with monitoring, maybe he will install micro monitoring in that factory?" Jiang Fatzi said his guess.

He felt that Luo Ruyan should be sitting quite far away.

The cunning middle-aged man stared at the screen intently, waiting for them to enter the factory, throwing themselves into the net, and then activating some kind of smoke, bombs, encirclement, and other means.

"There will definitely be surveillance, but Luo Ruyan is too cautious, he has been deceived by surveillance once, so he trusts his eyes more now." Lu Wen said.

Luo Ruyan installed surveillance at Luo's house at the beginning of the summer.

He thought he could catch Xia Chuluo's every move, but he miscalculated.

That miscalculation left him in a position of extreme passivity, forcing him to abandon his years of business in Mou and flee to Canterlot to seek help from his friends.

"Since it has to be seen with the naked eye, let me think about ......"

Jiang Fatzi called up a three-dimensional city model of the nearby urban area.

Everyone stayed in the alley on a rainy night, using the dark night as a cover, waiting for Jiang Fatzi to come to a conclusion.

Didn't wait long.

Jiang Fatzi marked three red dots on the map, packaged all the models and vector data he made, and sent one to each person.

"Geographically, all three locations have the abandoned factory visible, and they are relatively hidden and not easy to find."

The advantage of the first location is the ease of transportation.

The roads in Central City are relatively narrow and often congested, but the first location extends in all directions, and they can run in any direction, and if they choose to pursue at the beginning of Xia, they will inevitably be tracked down by the mechanical deacon.

The second site is adjacent to a small ditch that is more than 10 meters wide, but it has a large flow and is the source of drinking and tap water for the entire city.

Many companies have products for single-person submarines, and it is not difficult to get one.

Blue and Core Red also cooperated with the parliament to develop miniature submarines that could fight, but later due to the low combat value, the world was full of deserts, and the submarine project was shelved.

"The third location is more special, next to it is a mechanical execution office, and those stupid old robots come out every day to patrol and deal with disputes."

Xia Chuluo looked at the model and calculation results given by Jiang Fatzi.

She eventually decided to go to the second location.

Lu Wen coincided with her thoughts, the first location was more dangerous, Luo Ruyan had experienced a road chase, and knew that their group was waiting for bazookas at every turn, so he didn't dare to take risks.

The third location could result in both sides being targeted by the mechanical deacon.

Luo Ruyan is so cautious that he will not let himself fall into passivity again.

"In the second location, you can see not only the factory, but also the two more conspicuous buildings next to the factory."

……

Zoning with numbers is a habit in many cities.

At that time, when the nine major cities were established, there was a tacit understanding, and the people who had experienced the war were too lazy to engage in those complicated things, and everything was simple.

Canterlot has nine districts.

From the city of Mou, the passage into the city leads to the fourth district.

Luo Ruyan sat in front of the window, and the rain meandered down the glass window.

The constant flashes of thunder and lightning made this summer night a little more oppressive and dull.

After arriving in Canterlot, he quickly found some old friends he had known for many years and formed his own team.

This not-so-small room is their current base.

"Don't sit in front of the window and watch out for snipers."

In the corner of the room, a tall man reminded him.

"If it's really Xiao Xia who is here, she won't kill me for the time being, at most she will seriously hurt me, because she still wants to know more about the death of her parents from me."

Luo Ruyan smiled gently, confident.

Mastering the mental state of the opponent is something that a team leader must learn.

"I suggested putting surveillance cameras all around the hotel so we could keep track of their every move." Said a man sitting in front of a computer.

The man wore thick glasses, was thin and had sallow skin.

It was this person who helped Luo Ruyan get rid of Jiang Fatzi's tracking.

"Surveillance has a certain degree of confusion, what you see in the surveillance, not necessarily the real one, with Xiaoxia's ability, if the existence of surveillance is discovered, it is very easy to change the surveillance video, and we will be more passive at that time."

Looking out from the window where Luo Ruyan was.

The factory has an unobstructed view, and you can also see several characteristic buildings around the factory.

Of course, they also installed surveillance in the factory.

The monitoring picture is combined with the naked eye, so that it is more secure.

"Is the innkeeper credible? He said Xia Chuluo's team would go out at five o'clock tomorrow morning. Someone asked.

"The innkeeper's words are credible to us, but to Natsu...... She should be able to guess that the factory is a trap, and as for going out at five o'clock tomorrow morning, that might be used to confuse us. Luo Ruyan said.

"Uncle, it's really tiring to deal with your family, and it's calculating." The strong man complained: "What's the problem, I just opened the skylight and said bright words, and if I don't like it, I hit it, and I don't feel troublesome to guess all day long?" ”

"You're smart...... That's it for the rest of my life. Someone laughed in the corner of the dark room.

Luo Ruyan's team of more than 10 people has made achievements in various fields.

They have had a friendship with each other for many years, they are familiar with each other, they have searched for treasures in no man's land together, and they have also carried out assassination missions together, and they have lived a lifelong friendship.

"There's no need to be too nervous, Xia Zheng died in the first place, and his daughter can be more difficult to deal with than him?" Someone said.

"The reason why Xia Zheng died was because he insisted on going against the Floating City, he was okay alone, and he dared to go against the Floating City even if he had a family."

In that year's plan for Xia Zheng, many experienced killers took over the task.

With that rich bounty, few people can resist the temptation.

"You say...... At the beginning, it was rumored that Summer was digging up some of the buried high-explosive warheads in the north and hiding them somewhere in the floating city, is it true? ”

"More than high-explosive warheads." Luo Ruyan said: "Although I don't know the inside story, but the original batch of missiles was buried by those people in the floating city, and there are all kinds of missile warheads, judging from the fierce reaction of the floating city at that time, that batch of missiles must have been dug up a lot, who knows where the summer is getting it." ”

"It's unlikely that he's going to get that many missile warheads."

"What if there are other forces to help?"

"With Xia Zheng's arrogant personality, he won't cooperate with ordinary people at all."

"What if...... Isn't it people who work with him? ”
