"I don't understand, why don't they just put up a notice that wants us?" Karl asked, somewhat puzzled.

Cheng Shi thought for a while, and then said: "I'm afraid of us, Barbara is the messenger of the gods that Karel personally admitted, and the current situation in Tigoria is far from the time when Karel and us openly tear their faces." One more thing is that their space fleet should not be ready, and the ongoing transverse war is even less prepared, so they want to solve this matter secretly. He frowned, "But how did they find Tony?" ”

"Humph! On the surface, it is insidious and cunning behind the scenes, villain. If we knew this, we shouldn't have saved him in the first place, and we saved him twice. Yang Yang said indignantly.

Oldman heard Cheng Shi's analysis and nodded thoughtfully: "Did you use Tony to force us to show up?" They don't know that these days, we never think to hide. ”

"Xiaoqiao, find an open place to land, and I'll go to the city to have a look." Cheng Shi said casually.

Now in Crystal City, the buildings are very dense, and it is unlikely that the spaceship will want to land in the city. The Kate Eagle spaceship landed at a large spaceship gathering place outside the city, and the group walked out of the spaceship after a simple dress.

The reason why Cheng Shi didn't let the information bridge teleport a few people down was because he didn't want a group of people to suddenly appear in the crowded city, which would inevitably attract everyone's attention. And there may be other eyeliner arranged by Karel in the city, if they are targeted as soon as they come down, it will cause big trouble. It is better to go outside the city first to let the spaceship land normally, and after the group has covered up their physical appearance a little, they will go into the city all the way to explore some of the things that have happened in Crystal City in the past few months.

Tony is still very righteous, no matter how Wendell interrogates him, and even fights him, he doesn't recognize Bruce, and always insists that he is the guide for Cheng Shi and the others, so Wendell has never troubled the Bruces. It's just that Bruce doesn't know about it, he is still hiding everywhere in Crystal City, and no one actually arrests him.

The group followed several paths into Crystal City, checking the notices posted everywhere they went, and soon realized that Bruce had not fallen into Carrel's hands, so they walked towards Bruce's residence.

Although Cheng Shi didn't think that Bruce would still live in place after Tony's accident, there was no better way for the group to find someone now, so they could only try their luck in the past.

When the group arrives at Bruce's residence, they do see Rorty, although they don't see Bruce. According to her confession, Bruce hadn't been home for several days, thinking that it might be because of Tony's accident, Bruce was worried that his family would be involved, so he simply cut off contact with his family.

Barbara saw that Rortie, who had a big belly, looked a little haggard, and comforted her again and again, but she was still a little uneasy. Before he met Bruce, Cheng Shi couldn't promise her anything, so he was helpless.

"Karel, this old fox, I'll clean him up sooner or later." Cheng Shi thought secretly in his heart.

In order to prevent being targeted by Karel's eyes, Cheng Shi and Barbara only went to Bruce's house to meet Rorty, while the others were in charge of guarding the outside of the residential area.

After Cheng Shi and Barbara came out, they saw two strangers beside Oldman, which should have looked like that

Temporarily controlled by the giants. Before Cheng Shi stepped forward to inquire about the situation, Yang Yang took the initiative to come up and tell Cheng Shi that they had caught two spies.

"You've got eyeliner here." Cheng Shi's eyes swept over the people on Oldman's left and right, thinking secretly in his heart.

However, the whereabouts of several people were revealed, because a person happened to pass by the residential area and recognized Carl, but he was not a spy sent by Wendell, and this person quickly told Wendell about the discovery of Carl, but Carl did not notice that an acquaintance walked past him.

According to Karel's previous deployment, Wendell did not bring people over to arrest them with great fanfare after discovering the whereabouts of Cheng Shi and the others. Instead, he let his elite subordinates turn into civilians and gather towards the place where Cheng Shi and the others were. He himself changed into the somewhat shabby clothes he wore on the earth when he first came, intending to pretend to meet Cheng Shi and a few others.

"Wendell, long time no see, I didn't expect you to be here?" Cheng Shi led the group to a T-junction, and after unexpectedly seeing an old acquaintance on the earth, he took the initiative to come forward to say hello.

Wendell immediately put on a rather surprised expression: "Ah, it's you? It's been a long time since I saw you," he smiled awkwardly, "It's too far behind here than on our earth, and the folk customs and morale are almost equivalent to the Middle Ages in Europe, so I don't want to go back, I'm afraid it's easy to come over, but it's difficult to go back." ”

Cheng Shi was happy: "Haven't you all been looking forward to returning to the place of origin?" Why do you still want to go back to Earth? ”

Wendell sighed helplessly when he heard this: "I really didn't know how to be blessed before, so why are you still here?" When will you go back and give me a ride? We aliens have a lot of industries on Earth, and I can afford to pay for any amount of money, and I won't let you help in vain. ”

Seeing that Cheng Shi just smiled and didn't speak, Wendell then added: "Let me tell you this, Mercedes-Benz of Germany, we indirectly hold 1.5% of the shares." Microsoft Corporation of the United States, we indirectly hold 2.3% of the shares, and ......"

"That's it! Come on! Cheng Shi hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt Wendell's words, "You first tell me how many of you have here, I'll see if my spaceship can fit it, and it's best to send you all back in one trip." I'm not engaged in trans-universe transportation, everyone is from the earth, and I won't take your money. But there is one condition, I hope that after you go back, you will be able to settle down, and stop illegal gatherings, planning any unrealistic actions such as counterattacking the earth. ”

Wendell nodded his head with a grateful expression.

"It seems that these aliens have lived a good life on the earth for a long time and have not suffered much, and they should have suffered a lot when they returned to their hometown this time. It's okay to let them know that their so-called place of origin is not as good as they think. After sending you away, I can focus on dealing with Karel. I look forward to you being able to settle down completely when you return to Earth, I don't have time to play with you on Earth. Cheng Shi thought secretly.

"I see you've been suffering a lot of time these days, right?" Cheng Shi said and tugged at Wendell's tattered shirt, "Let's go, find a tavern, I'll invite you to dinner, and after eating, you can contact your people." Once you've gathered everyone, we're ready to go. ”

For Cheng Shi, it doesn't cost to go back to the main universe

It's been too long, so he thinks that things can be settled as soon as possible. As for Tony's affairs, presumably Karel can't see them, and Tony won't be in danger for the time being, so it's better to solve the matter of the aliens from the earth stranded in Tigonia first.

"I'm not going to eat, I'll go over and contact my people now," Wendell said gratefully, "Excuse me, where are we going to find you later?" ”

After Cheng Shi gave Wendell an address in the western suburbs of Crystal City, he left in a hurry. He said that he was going back to contact his people, but in fact, he was rushing back to get back to Karel.

After Wendell left, Cheng Shi led the group to a tavern and sat down, ready to have lunch.

"Landlord, do you think it's a little strange that we met this old werewolf at this time?" Oldman said with a frown.

Cheng Shi was stunned, recalled all the content of the conversation with Wendell just now, and then said, "I don't think there's anything strange? Or did I take the initiative to greet him. ”

Oldman shook his head slightly: "I don't look at his complexion, it doesn't look like he's been wronged, I always feel like he's dressed on purpose, you may not have noticed, his shoes are new, and they are the kind of shoes worn by the local upper class people in Tikonia." ”

Cheng Shiyi frowned, looked out a little cautiously, and then asked, "When I was talking to him just now, did you see any traces of spies nearby?" ”

Except for Cheng Shi, everyone else shook their heads.

Cheng Shi spread his hands: "Then everyone shouldn't think so much." Wendell is an earthling, and Ticonia can only be regarded as his ancestral home at best, and he is lucky not to be captured by Karel as a guinea pig for experiments. Although the Earth Aliens are aliens, they have existed on Earth longer than humans after all. They're still a nuisance here, so we'll send them back and then come back to get back on our business. Don't worry, nothing will happen. ”

At this time, Cheng Shi was already convinced of Wendell's words. After Oldman's questions were finished, no new doubts were raised by the others, so everyone silently waited for the food to be served and ready to eat.

After Wendell quickly returned to the underground laboratory in Crystal City, he immediately met with Karel and carefully reported the interview with Cheng Shi to Karel.

"Well, yes, you've done a good job," Karel said approvingly, looking at Wendell, "since he promised you that he could send you Earth aliens back, why don't you really bring some people back with him." ”

"Elder, I finally returned to the Land of Origin, should I just go back with him? I can make an excuse to get out before the ship takes off, and my method is guaranteed to work and not make him suspicious. Wendell said with some surprise.

Wendell had already calculated the reason for getting out before meeting Cheng Shi. According to his plan, when Cheng Shi's spaceship was about to take off, a pregnant woman who looked like a native of Ticonia would come to him, and this pregnant woman would claim to be his wife, so that he could use this as an excuse not to go back with Cheng Shi for the time being.

But he didn't discuss this idea with Karel in advance. And what he didn't expect now was that Karel really agreed to return to Earth with Cheng Shi.
