Chapter 121: Discovery
Mobile reading
But for this contradiction and the means to solve the matter, Gu San's perception is just "interesting". Humans who have simply undergone partial prosthetic modifications are not a threat at all, and time is already their greatest enemy, and those internal aging and weakness have dragged down their bodies step by step, regardless of whether there is an external threat or not.
Gu San could indeed take that guy's life in the blink of an eye, but she wouldn't do that now. It would cause more trouble than not killing him, and she didn't want to waste any more time.
"If it's okay, I'll go back to my room and rest." Gu San raised his hand towards Qiqi and gestured to his room card, "And, thank you for your beer." ”
"You're welcome, as it should be. Also, have you had dinner? ”
Although Gu San could feel that this woman named Qiqi was obviously pleasing herself, she had always disliked any contact with superfluous people. Interactions between people are often like this, as long as you refuse to become familiar with others, then you can decisively isolate some unnecessary troubles. Gu San has passed that enthusiastic age, and he has taken other people's problems on himself. At the moment, there is only one task she wants to accomplish, find Murong Yuhua.
Gu San is too aware of the rules of making friends in this society, especially in this kind of transport fleet, who would go to this kind of place to make friends. Those who dare to rush to the zombies to shoot and use knives are all deadly bastards, and sometimes they deliberately approach to curry favor in the hope that others can help them at a critical moment.
Qiqi obviously wanted to continue to invite Gu San, but seeing the other party's obviously hesitant expression, he took the lead in speaking, "But it's really more important to rest, I live in 70 San, come to me anytime if you need it." ”
Gu San looked at this sexy and unrestrained woman, and after hesitating for a moment, he still said first, "I don't like women." ”
The other party was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "No, no, no, I didn't mean that." Sky...... You are mistaken. ”
Qiqi almost burst into tears of laughter because of her words, "I just feel that in a convoy, since I, you, and Adan are all women, it's good to take care of each other if necessary." No matter how powerful the prosthetic warriors are, they are all sisters, and almost all of the team are men, so it's right to lend a hand once in a while, what do you think? ”
The Adan she mentions in her mouth is another prosthetic modified woman, dressed plainly, with light gray child's hair. When Gu Sanyou saw her when she got off the car downstairs before, she liked to use knives, one was a delicate dagger, and the other was a thick-bladed machete. Her arms were obviously modified, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to swing her weapon so neatly. As for the other parts that have been transformed, it is not clear, and after being covered by clothing, it is impossible to see at all.
After hearing this, Gu San frowned slightly, but he still nodded and walked towards the elevator. Qiqi stood behind her and watched her leave, and after she finished the beer in her hand, she took out the business card that Gu San had given her before from her pocket.
Waiting for Gu San to enter the elevator and go up, he disappeared completely, and a woman walked out of the restaurant on the side, it was the Adan mentioned by Qiqi earlier. She walked towards Qiqi and looked sideways at the elevator that kept going up, "Did you tell her?" ”
Qiqi threw away the empty wine bottle and lit a cigarette, "Not yet." She was indeed as unkind as rumored to be. ”
"We can only succeed this time if we win her. It was only five days away from the Black Desert Post House next to Fortress No. 7. ”
"When we get to the Black Desert, we will continue to act as usual, even without her. This person is dangerous, and you have no idea where her moral bottom line is. ”
"But there's no way she's going to sit idly by and ignore those kids."
"Are you sure?" Qiqi glanced at her, "You see her detachment and disdain, are you sure she has such a strong sense of morality as you think?" ”
After saying this, the woman walked to the elevator with a cigarette in her mouth, and then her eyes looked into the restaurant, where the truck drivers had already made a mess, and the men were always the first to get acquainted with each other, and began to call each other brothers, ready to cover up other people's mistakes.
Outside, the sky had completely darkened, and outside the layers of thickened bulletproof glass, zombies surrounded the building that emitted lights. Some people laughed arrogantly and looked at the monsters outside that had no brains to roar and beat loudly, humans have become accustomed to living with zombies, and the upgrade of weapons has made them forget their fears, and they have lost their only enemy, and there is no reason to hate the same enemy, and once again they can see people stretching out their poisonous hands to their fellow citizens again, to persecute weaker beings than themselves.
The first thing Gu San did after returning to the room was to take a bath, the overall facilities of the post station here were very simple, and the water flowed out with a smell of rust, and the overall environment was naturally not as good as the inside of the fortress. The carpet on the floor of the room is not a dark red trace, and all the remaining buildings can always see the residue left by decades of human resistance to zombies.
The room is composed of two parts, a bathroom and a bedroom, there is a bed in the bedroom, the white three-piece suit on the bed spreads with spots, the whole room is filled with a strange musty smell and rancid smell, there are two bedside tables next to the bed, there are a few pornographic cards in the cabinet, and there are always people who rely on physical services to make money. There was an old-fashioned kettle on the bedside table, and after Gu San came out of the shower, he boiled the kettle of water, and was about to lie down on the bed, when he lifted the quilt, he saw a black worm suddenly fleeing from under her nose.
That said, it's much better to live in the wilderness than to live in the wild.
Besides, her current physical state is only worried about mechanical aging, and she doesn't need to worry about any skin diseases, ant bites, etc. Gu San lay down on the bed and dialed the number to contact Zhu Li, who quickly connected to the line.
"Miss Gu, is the journey going well?"
Gu San didn't answer his words, but said first, "Help me check the background of the company that hired me this time." When I arrived in the afternoon, I didn't see their company logo. ”
"When the contract was signed, the other party used the name of 'Thousand Days Transportation Trading Co., Ltd.'. The legal representative's name is Zhang Ende, born in 2029. He owns a bookmaker under his name, and his main industries are in Fort Three. ”
"Bookmakers? What are the main projects? ”
When Gu San closed his eyes, Zhu Li transmitted some picture materials, and one after another of the buildings of the antique Roman gladiatorial arena slowly appeared in front of her eyes.
"In live fighting, the contestants are all young men and women from other fortresses who have never undergone prosthetic modifications. The outward image often looks youthful and beautiful. Spectators place bets on the contestants. However, these matches were confined to Fort 3 and were never broadcast to other forts. ”
"Is this illegal?"
"It's legal over there, and the government of Fortress No. 3 has been acquiescing in his violent accumulation of money." After Zhu Li said this, he couldn't help but be a little curious, "Miss Gu, did you encounter anything on your mission this time?" ”
"There was a bit of a problem with the convoy transporting items this time. I forgot to ask you to do a review before. Gu San closed his eyes and sighed a little helplessly, "How does Fortress No. 27 deal with human trafficking?" ”
"After the original human trade is discovered, it will be expelled from the fortress, and it shall not be reversed for ten years, and a fine shall be imposed. where the circumstances are serious, the sentence is to be 10 years or more or deprivation of the right to live in the fortress, a fine or confiscation of property, and where the circumstances are especially serious, the sentence is to be death and confiscation of property. ”
"It's illegal at Fortress Twenty-Seven, right?"
"Yes. However, human trafficking was only found in Fortress 27, and if the crime did not occur in Fortress 27, the local police and government have no right to interfere, manage, or punish them. After saying this, Zhu Li told her, "If you want to solve this problem through legal means, there is no way to implement it at present." Next, we will enter the scope of Fort Nineteen, which has always been indifferent to other forts. ”
"Which fortresses on the map are predominantly primitive?"
"Fortress Seven in the middle of the Black Desert." "It's the only fortress currently made up almost entirely of nativist humans, and only a very small number of people who have undergone prosthetic modifications due to medical problems live there. They're a slightly extreme inclination of the primitarians, do you want to work with that? ”
"What is the probability of getting them out to check the car?"
"It is impossible for the convoy to go inside the fortress, and entering the fortress requires multiple quarantine checks, and the convoy will not waste time. At most, you will only rest at the nearby station. Juri thought for a moment and said, "If we report this convoy now, the people of Fort Seven will not necessarily risk being attacked to come out for inspection." They are too vulnerable, and even if they have weapons and equipment, it is questionable whether they can defeat the armed men of this convoy. ”
The situation near the Black Desert is probably clear to Gu San, there is also a desert in winter, and the post station is set up in an abandoned town next to Fortress Seven, where the defense facilities are even worse, but for the prosthetics, it is one of the few places where zombies can be borrowed to attack other human enemies. Gu San thought very seriously about the feasibility of the plan, and from time to time she still remembered the scratching and struggling figures in the carriage in her mind.
After a while, she said to Juri, "Report it, I'll take care of it." If they don't come out......"
"If there is no one to pick them up, it will be a dead end for these people to be rescued, and there are more zombies around Fortress Seven than other fortresses." After Juli finished speaking, he thought about it and told her, "And if you do this, the rest of the journey will have to be left to you to move forward." The cost of the journey will increase further. ”
"It's all like this, there's no way, right? Anyway, you arrange as I said, and how many days are left to arrive in the Black Desert? ”
"Five days." Juri replied.
"Okay. That's five days. Gu San extinguished the lights in the room, "What about five days later, I'll find another way at that time." ”
