Chapter 15: Unexpected Changes

The government office buildings in every county and city are very easy to identify, and they are tall, magnificent,* which are the common characteristics of most government office buildings, and the Haixi Prefecture government is no exception.

It was late at night, and the top floor of the state government office building was still brightly lit, but there was only one person working on the entire floor, if it could be called an office.

Secretary-General Zhao, who had just looked arrogant, was standing respectfully in front of a large leather-clad mahogany desk with his hands down at this time, with a humble smile on his face.

The owner of the desk was none other than Tian Ziming, the de facto ruler of Haixi. Tian Ziming did not sit behind the desk, but stood in front of the tall floor-to-ceiling window, quietly looking at Delingha City in the night with his hands behind his back, leaving only Secretary General Zhao with a broad back.

"After the people of the Shun An caravan stayed, no one came out?" Tian Ziming's voice was very flat, but there was the majesty of the superior in his tone.

"It's very strange, those people are very honest, and none of them came out." Secretary-General Zhao hurriedly replied.

"That's fine, let the arranger keep an eye on it, and don't let anyone slip through the net at that time."

"Rest assured, we've placed three layers of eyeliner around the hotel, and none of them want to get out of our sight."

"In addition, we must also pay attention to the outsiders who come into contact with them, and we must prevent them from sending out crystal nuclei through other channels, these crystal nuclei are the income that we have saved in Haixi for more than half a year, and we must not lose them." Tian Ziming's tone was obviously aggravated.

Secretary-General Zhao naturally understood the meaning of the leader's aggravated tone, and immediately assured: "We will send more manpower to ensure that nothing goes wrong!" Secretary Zhao hesitated slightly, "Chairman, there is just one thing I haven't figured out, since this batch of crystal nuclei is so important to us, why don't we just do it and make such a big detour?" ”

"Shaolin, you are still too young, although An Jiacheng is a bit of a lion this time, but business still has to be credited, who will do business with us after losing credit? In addition, you must not underestimate An Jiacheng, if you don't have the ability to pull up such a big trading house? How easy to get so many munitions? In any case, you can't turn your face with him on the bright side. Therefore, don't be so ugly when eating, as long as you don't leave evidence to the other party that we did it, An Jiacheng can't openly turn against us even if he guesses it. The office lights reflected a smiling face on the wide glass.

Secretary General Zhao's legs trembled slightly unconsciously.

"Anything else?" Seeing that Secretary-General Zhao was still standing at the desk and had no intention of leaving, Tian Ziming turned around from the window, this is an ordinary man who can no longer be ordinary, and whoever sees this man on the street will not be associated with the words "high and powerful".

"The person you asked me to date before has arrived, it's just ....."

"It's just something, don't spit it out!" Tian Ziming's tone was a little unhappy.

"It's just that the other party only came with more than a dozen people, and the leader of the team was a young woman, and the woman didn't talk to me, saying that if you want to cooperate, you need to talk to her in person." After Secretary Zhao finished speaking, he looked at Tian Ziming nervously.

Tian Ziming pulled out the wide black leather boss chair and sat down at the desk, gently tapped the desk with his middle finger, and muttered: "These organizations that pretend to be ghosts always like to do this, since they want to see you for a while, help me arrange it." Actually, I still like to trade with real businessmen like Anjiacheng, and if you can solve it with benefits, don't make some mess. ”

......

The evolutionaries and guards of the Thuan An convoy quickly recovered from the frustration of being struck by Huber. Although they couldn't go out, fortunately, the team stored a lot of food, and Hu Zi and the others arranged for the hotel kitchen to quickly make a fairly hearty meal, and moved two boxes of home-brewed liquor from the car, and began to celebrate the successful completion of the mission with the members of the team.

Except for the time in Haiyan Town, the convoy is usually not allowed to drink, but this time because the goods have been delivered safely, the rules prohibiting drinking have also been relaxed, and everyone is immersed in a joyful atmosphere.

The beard and the old ghost seemed to have discussed and came over to fight with Chi Hua one after another, and the guards under the two captains also came over to toast, especially those who went to the Kraken Ji Bar with Chi Hua and others last time, they were even more enthusiastic, and Chi Hua, who thought that he had a good amount of alcohol, gradually couldn't resist it, and had to find an excuse to sneak out of the restaurant.

When he got outside, looking at the deep night sky, Chi Hua spat out a heavy breath of wine. It is also strange to say that after becoming an evolutionary, all the qualities of the body have been doubled, but the amount of alcohol has not increased, and the only improvement is that the speed of sobering up after being drunk is faster.

Taking this opportunity, Chi Hua began to take a serious look at the city, except for the hotel where the caravan was located, the surrounding buildings were dark, but Chi Hua always felt that there was something hidden in the darkness. Three kilometers further away, there was a tall building, and the entire top floor was lit up, which couldn't help but make Chi Hua very curious.

"It's the state government building in Haixi, maybe Tian Ziming is watching us right now."

Chi Hua turned around and saw Hu Bo, whose face was slightly red, walking out alone, "Why did you come out too?" ”

"Come out and take a breath, it's not as good as you young people, and you're already past the age of fighting."

"Have you been to Hercy before?" Chi Hua remembered what Hu Bo had just said.

"I've been here once, and I've met Tian Ziming, otherwise I wouldn't be responsible for delivering this batch of goods. How do you feel about the city? Hu Bo looked at Chi Hua with a smile.

"Anyway, it feels weird, we haven't come into contact with an outsider since we entered this city, and even a few waiters in the hotel have either been specially explained, or they are not the original waiters at all."

"Hmm." Huber nodded approvingly, "Go on." ”

"Combined with the fact that you don't allow caravans to go out at night, I think there are only two possibilities for this scenario, either the citizens of the entire city are strictly controlled, or we are artificially quarantined, and someone doesn't want us to come into contact with the locals."

"You're smart! In fact, our task has not been completed, the so-called successful transaction is only the final completion of the money and goods, don't look at Tian Ziming's payment we have received, but as long as our people are still on other people's territory for a day, these payments are not ours. ”

"Then you still let them ......." Chi Hua subconsciously turned his head to look at the lively scene in the house.

"Don't worry, since Tian Ziming didn't do it when he received the goods, then this place is the safest, let them relax, these children don't know how many people can go back alive?" Huber sighed.

Chi Hua looked at Hu Bo with puzzled eyes, "How do you know that there will be an accident in the future?" ”

"Although I have only met Tian Ziming once, he is one of the people who impresses me the most, I have never seen a man who hides himself so well, it is simply leaky. But for such an important transaction, he only let one of his secretaries-general come forward, and the contempt in the expression of this secretary-general, you must not think that Secretary-General Zhao is an idiot, and none of the government officials who can achieve the position of secretary-general are stupid. Then there is only one explanation, I have no value in their eyes that need to be respected or pretended, there is only one kind of person in the world who has no value - the dead! ”

"Ahh Chi Hua gasped, firstly, he didn't expect that he had just escaped the pursuit and took the initiative to jump into the wolf's den, and secondly, he didn't expect that Hu Bo would be able to launch the killing machine behind him with just a little detail, "Then you still let An An take the adventure with him?" ”

"Hey!" Hu Bo sighed heavily, "Although I knew that this deal would make Tian Ziming's flesh hurt, I didn't expect it to really make him kill, and there is also the fact that An An, the girl, sneaked into the convoy without telling his father, as for the reason, forget it, don't talk about it." Huber waved his hand.

Chi Hua didn't know what to say for a while, just looked at the lights on the top floor of the building in the distance and was stunned. "First strike!" A thought suddenly popped into my heart, and then I couldn't hold it back anymore.

"An An told me that you saved An An's life, I planned to recommend you to An An's father to enter the business house after this mission, but I didn't expect it to affect you. As soon as the convoy leaves Delingha, you can leave quietly, and you may be able to hide by yourself. Huber said slowly.

Chi Hua smiled lightly, "If it weren't for what you just said, I would have been ready to say goodbye to you and An An when I left Haixi, but now?" In any case, I have to accompany the convoy for a while, and you can't get rid of me! ”

Hu Bo looked at Chi Hua in surprise, "An An, this girl really didn't see the wrong person!" In the past few days, I have seen you practice knives during your break, I don't know who taught you? Huber suddenly and inexplicably changed the subject.

"I was taught by an instructor in the army when I joined the army, and later I fooled around with some knife tricks, which was completely wild." Chi Hua said modestly.

Huber's eyes suddenly lit up, "I didn't expect you to be a soldier." I have an old friend who also lives in Qinghai and is a famous knife master in the northwest region, if you can successfully escape this disaster this time, I will introduce him to guide you in knife skills, which may be of some help to you. ”

Since the battle with the vampire mountaintop, Chi Hua felt that his knife skills had reached a bottleneck, and he had not advanced an inch for a long time, but he was blind all day long and had no one to guide him. ”

"It turns out that both of you are here, I said why can't I find you, Chi Hua, come on, everyone is waiting for you to drink!" An An walked out with a blushing face, her upper body was shaking and her steps were no longer stable, and it seemed that she was not drinking less, and An An pulled Chi Hua as soon as she came up.

Chi Hua glanced back at Hu Bo in embarrassment, Hu Bo smiled and waved at the two, "Go ahead, you guys have fun!" ”

Chi Hua turned his head and glanced back when he walked into the door, the old man was still looking at the building with lights in front of him, leaving Chi Hua with a slightly rickety back.
