When it comes to the powerful countries of the world today, we have to mention the four major powers. When it comes to the four major powers, we have to talk about the Arctic States. If you talk about the Arctic Country, you have to talk about Akiyama City. Nowadays, when people talk about this city, they can add several names in front of it: stronghold city, cosmopolitan city, the largest trading place in the Arctic Continent, the third largest trading city in the world, and so on.

This metropolis with a population of more than 20 million is located on the eastern coast of the Arctic Continent. It is not the capital, but it is more attractive than the capital. Not only is it a thriving business, but it also attracts countless tourists every year with a strong historical atmosphere and beautiful natural scenery. The tourism industry developed from this is an important economic support for the city.

Among these highlights, the most talked-about is the three universities in the city, each of which is a famous school with a history of more than 100 years, and is a holy place for many students in China. Akiyama City has never been stingy in its investment in education, and they value not only the talents of a person, but also the attitude of the person. In life, you can be cynical, and academically, you have to be realistic and pragmatic. Therefore, every university is known for its academic rigour, and the University of Ceylon is the most famous.

Located in the middle of the university town in the western part of the city, at the intersection of Momos Street and Onkesey Street, the University of Ceylon was founded in the 16th year of the new era, making it the youngest of the three universities. Its School of History is well-known in the academic world, and its monthly publications include "The Journey of Godpet" and "The Capital of Time", which regularly publishes some archaeological results and professors' papers, and is regarded as a "textbook" by its peers, and its authority is one of the best in China. In addition, it has two professional archaeological teams recognized by the World Archaeological Organization "Goppet".

On May 1st, the National Day, the school will be closed from the previous day until the end of the holiday on the 11th. In the downtown business district or on the beach, students who are looking for fun can be seen everywhere, and in this spring season, they can release their stress to the fullest. In schools, you can also see a small number of students who have volunteered to stay in school and give up their rare vacations. It's not to show their differences, but because most of them are out-of-town students, and they don't want to go home, which is very tossed. Also, as soon as the holidays are over, the exams will follow, so it's better to read more books so as not to rust your brain.

Universities are places where autonomy is tested, and lecturers generally do not accompany students to work overtime. However, there are also lecturers who stay in the school and are responsible for guiding the students in their studies and answering questions. On this year's National Day, more than 40 students from the Anzhou History major of the School of History stayed on campus, and the university arranged for them an associate professor, Andora Kepov. Andora prefers to tell her students what she has seen and heard more than books, which is much more interesting and useful than in class.

"So, I was trapped in the underground mausoleum, and it was called a black, and my searchlight was broken."

More than 40 students sat in a classroom with a capacity of more than 100 people, and Andora stood on the podium, painting and dancing. He originally wanted to tell about the tombs of the Seven Empires, but he listened to a student's suggestion and turned into a story about his own exploration of the tombs.

That was two years ago, when he was invited by an archaeological team to help excavate and identify the artifacts at the Rorodialan monument on the continent of Ozhou in the southern hemisphere. While surveying a ruin, he stomped on the floor under his feet and fell into an underground mausoleum.

The companions above were in a mess, they told Andora not to move, and then busied themselves with the rope. But when a few people went down, the man they were looking for reappeared in the ruins, and after a short rest, they returned to the underground mausoleum with their stunned companions along the route of his escape.

"How did you find your way out, Professor?" One student asked.

"Hmph, do you want to know?" Andora proudly sold the lawsuit, "Think about what you would do if you were in this situation. I'll tell you about it next time I'm in a good mood. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the book on the lectern and remembered something.

"However, if anyone is really curious, they are welcome to find me privately, but only for girls."

There was a burst of laughter in the classroom, and the girls laughed even more. Andora is a well-known pick-up boy at school, and she claims to be of any age, young and old. But admittedly, he is really popular with girls. Not only because of his handsome appearance and height of more than 1.8 meters. It is not uncommon for people to become associate professors at the age of 27 and participate in an average of three archaeological activities a year.

Andora, who walked out of the classroom with a book in her hand, walked lightly and hummed a little tune, and behind him, a girl trotted to catch up with him and circle in front of him.

"Professor, I'm going to the library in the afternoon to check some materials, can you help?"

"No problem, Leia, but you go first, I don't want to pull any more hatred."

Leia chuckled, the short-haired girl was recognized by the students of the History Academy as Andora's gossip girlfriend. Although they did not admit it, the students still found a lot of "evidence", such as several sightings of the two together, entering and exiting the school gate together, entering the classroom and library together, and even shopping and eating together. Others claimed to have hacked Andora's cell phone and found that he had a lot of ambiguous private messages with Léa. It turned out to be a forgery, and the initiator almost ate the lawsuit.

As a freshman, Leia still retains the temperament of a high school student, full of energy, and many boys regard her as a goddess-like existence, so it is natural that Andora will attract hatred.

"Okay, okay, then I'll go there and wait for you first."

"Skipping meals?"

"Lose weight!"

Leia ran away. Andora couldn't understand why this girl, who was 1.6 meters tall but weighed less than 50 kilograms, had to lose weight. "If you can't eat, you can't study well" is what he often says, especially for lunch, and he must not discount it.

Walking out of the school building, Andora went straight to the south gate. He didn't like the school's cafeteria, the quality of food in the canteen of Ceylon University was at the bottom of the three major schools all year round, and he couldn't understand why a school that strives to reach the top of its academic excellence couldn't devote some energy to solve the problem of eating. And now it's a holiday to go out and enjoy yourself, which makes sense.

Andora's vision appeared at the security booth at the south gate, where a young man in his 20s sat as a security guard at the school. Perhaps because of the small number of vacationers, this security guard did not stare at the door outside, but stared intently at the screen of the game console in his hand, with his feet on the table, and his two thumbs left and right, playing quite devotedly.

Andora walked to the window of the security booth and knocked on the window, but the young man did not look up.

"The register is next to the window, write it yourself."

"Write a six, Leo, it's me."

*****

The University of Ceylon has two main entrances, the South Gate and the East Gate. To the south is the main entrance, and there are usually no less than six security guards guarding the gate. As a closed school, students and staff have their own student or staff IDs, which are the keys to the school. If outsiders want to enter, they need to register at the security booth, explain the intention of coming and the person they are looking for, and confirm them one by one before they can be released.

During the holidays, the number of security guards at each entrance and exit will be reduced to one or two, but the process will not be simplified. If the security department is made aware of the negligence of a security guard, the security guard will be 100% removed from the school.

Slightly lowering the game console in his hand, Leo took 3 seconds to raise his eyes and see Andora.

"Don't scare me, Andora."

"Still playing? It's time to go out to eat. ”

"What time is it?"

"It's almost 12 o'clock, come out!"

Leo turned his head to look at the clock on the table, reluctantly put the console down, put his legs on the ground, and walked out of the security booth.

"Are you just going out?"

Unlike Andora's high-end casual clothes, Leo wears the school's security uniform. He had been sitting under his ass just now, crumpled, his chest was open, and he hadn't changed it for a week, and his pants were the same, the hem of his pants was still curled, and his hair was a little messy, he looked like a soldier who had fled for his life from the battlefield.

"It's okay, it's okay if the wind blows, let's go." Leo said nonchalantly.

The two set off in Andora's car and headed for the city. The urban area during the National Day is quite busy, usually more than ten minutes away, this time it took half an hour. Once there, Andora took a few more minutes to stop her car before walking with Leo to a snack bar on the side of the road.

This small shop called "Black Eye" is twice as small as other restaurants in the neighborhood, but it is Leo's favorite. Unless there is an emergency, he insists on eating here at noon every day.

Leo, who got out of the car, touched his coat pocket and then his trouser pocket, showing an embarrassed expression.

"Did you bring the money, Andora?"

"What? You don't even have any money? ”

"It looks like it fell out of my pocket while I was getting dressed." Leo touched it again, but it still didn't.

Andora smiled bitterly and said, "Don't look for it, I'll ask for it today." ”

"Thanks."

"If you want me to say, you can't do it alone, you don't have the ability to take care of yourself, and you live alone, and you owe last month's rent, right?"

"It's okay, it's almost enough to pay back the salary."

As he spoke, Leo took out his phone and used the calculator inside to do the math.

"That's enough."

"Enough is enough? What do you eat after all the repayment? ”

"Eat more instant noodles."

The two were chatting while standing in front of the hotel.

"So didn't I say that? I can give you a place to live in that house, not far from the school. ”

"Forget it, it's always not very good to live in someone else's house, and the landlord and aunt are not so urging, it's good now."

Andora, a few kilometers away from the University of Ceylon, has an 80-square-meter house that he bought to make it easier for him to go to work. Later he moved and the house has been used for rent. On more than one occasion, Andora persuaded Leo to move in, that he could evict the tenant and give him a car if he felt far away. And Leo refused more than once, he didn't want to owe anything to anyone, even a good friend.

In response to Andora's question, Leo reached for the door. I didn't want the door to be pushed open from the inside, hit his arm, and as soon as the hand was released, the phone fell off.

"Ahh

Seeing that the mobile phone was about to collide with the ground, it was firmly held by the other hand. Leo looked at the man who had just pushed the door—a young man about his own age—walking out from behind the door, his cell phone in hand.

"I'm sorry," the lad said apologetically, returning Leo's phone to him, "I'm in a hurry, take my leave." ”

Leaving a short sentence, the young man strode away, got into a car on the side of the road, and drove away.

"Is your phone okay?" Andora asked.

"It's fine."

"But that kid reacted so fast, I just watched it, and he caught it, could it be that he was with you all the way?"

"Who knows. I don't want to think about it, eat and eat. ”

On the one hand, Leo and Andora entered the hotel to enjoy lunch, and on the other side, the young man who had just had a full meal at the hotel drove all the way south, and soon came to the Akiyama City Hall. The doorman asked if he had an appointment, and he pulled out an appointment slip. The doorman looked and dialed a number from the intercom phone. After some exchange, the doorman told the young man that he should go to the sixth floor to find the person he wanted to meet.

Standing in front of the door of the "mayor's room" on the sixth floor, the young man knocked on the door a few times, and after getting the consent of the people inside, he pushed the door and entered.

"Ah, welcome, welcome, I'm Rolov Sharma."

Behind the desk, sat the mayor of Akiyama City, an old man in his seventies, with a chubby figure but no face full of horizontal meat, plus neat short hair and a clean shirt, giving people a feeling of good spirits. Rolov smiled and stepped forward and stretched out his hand, and the young man quickly stretched out one hand and saluted with the other a standard military salute.

"Hello, Lord Mayor. Akya Trosyumi, come and report for duty. ”

*****

Akeya was notified yesterday. His boss, Clark, the head of the Gebula Township Police Station, told him to pack his bags and report to the city hall the next day, and that the mayor would see him in person.

"Behave well, Akeya. It must be a good thing that Rolov is looking for you personally. If you develop in the future, don't forget me. Old Clark said with a smile.

The director's expression didn't affect Arkya, he thought of the Silver Wings. Past experience has taught him that being called for an interview by his boss's boss is not necessarily a good thing. But the order could not be disobeyed, he immediately went home to pack his things, and then at noon today, when Rolov was resting, appeared on time.

Rolov sat down with Akeya, made him a cup of tea, asked him a few questions about Akeya's work and life, and mentioned Clark in the process. The two chatted for a few minutes, not at all.

Akya felt that the atmosphere was a little uncomfortable, so she mentioned it first: "Lord Mayor, are you looking for me today, is there something wrong?" ”

Rolov smiled, took a sip from his teacup, and slowly put it down.

"Akya Trosyumi, 23 years old. In September last year, he went to the Gebula Town Police Station and served as an assistant police officer. Within a month, he solved a theft, a robbery, and a robbery gang on his own, and in October he became a full-fledged police officer. So far, 23 cases have been cracked, and more than 40 suspects have been arrested, and almost every time they have been arrested independently. I heard that there was a shootout with a group of people last month, and I faced several of them alone? ”

Thinking that Rolov wanted to praise himself, Akeya humbly said: "I just completed my mission. ”

"However, every time you behave, it is far beyond the ability of a police officer."

Rolov leaned forward and asked.

"Could it be that you are a 'nameless' person?"

The two words that he hadn't heard for a long time made Akeya feel excited. His right hand, which was resting on his lap, subconsciously retracted a little and stopped again - he now had no gun at his waist.

Even if he was the mayor, Akeya didn't like to let others bring up those things, but he couldn't refute or agree, so he kept silent. Rolov also felt that his question was too abrupt and apologized.

"Sorry, that's a bit abrupt. Karp and I are old friends, and we have some personal friends, and I know a little bit about him. I didn't ask what I said just now, after all, everyone has a problem. Okay, that's all for gossip. ”

Rolov filled his teacup again, and the teapot fell gently on the table.

"I'm not looking for you today for anything else, it's about that shootout."

It was one night at the beginning of last month. Akya, who is patrolling a village, goes to a bar to persuade two groups of drunkards who are fighting together. Originally, the two sides just met each other, but suddenly a gunshot rang out while fighting, and the two drunkards fell to the ground. There was a sudden chaos in the bar, and the drunkards all woke up and ran away.

The chaos did not affect Arkya's judgment in the slightest, and he quickly zeroed on to the person who had shot him, who was hiding in the corner of the wall, taking advantage of the chaos to jump out of the window and escape. Akya chased after him, and he kept warning him to stop, but the man ran wildly without looking back.

After chasing him out of the village, Akeya realized that the man had five or six companions, and these people seemed to have been waiting at the entrance of the village for a long time. Seeing Akeya appear, they grabbed the guns in their hands and fired indiscriminately, Akya shot back, and the first escapees were wounded by him, and the rest of them quickly fled.

"What about the wounded?" Rolov asked.

"Dead, and shot by his companions."

"That's exactly what happened," Rolov said to himself. "Go on."

The incident was quickly taken seriously by the police, and while Clark reported it to the Akiyama General Police Station, several police officers, including Akya, were dispatched to cooperate with the General Police Department's case handling team to investigate in detail. According to the villagers' confessions, the bandits who fired the shots in the bar were not locals, and the argument that night was just a few angry words, which seemed ordinary to others. The crux of the incident has to be said to be the bandits who escaped.

However, a month later, there have been no more shootings in Akiyama City, and the police have no clues. By now, the investigation has stalled, and new cases have been frequent, and the matter has faded out of the police's sight.

Listening to Akeya's report, Rolov drank tea from time to time, and when he saw that his teacup was empty, but Akeya's tea did not move, he asked the young man to take a few sips first. Akya picked up the teacup.

"In our country, guns are not a big problem in themselves, but I'd like to hear your opinion, Akya. After all, you're the one who's fighting them directly. ”

Akya drank his tea: "My feeling is that they are quite trained,"

"Is it a mercenary?"

"Quite possibly. The person who shot and killed him in the bar was later identified as a civilian from Newer. But the gun in his hand has not been found out how to buy it. ”

"Someone else's?"

"It should be, and the Eight Achievements were given by those accomplices," Akeya added, "as long as it is bought domestically, no matter how much it is handed over, it will leave traces." ”

Rolov nodded, summing up Akeya's words: "What do you think are the purpose of a group of people of unknown origin, giving weapons to an outsider and making trouble with me?" ”

"It's a fact that the quarrel at the bar led to a conflict. If I hadn't shown up at the time, maybe the people behind me wouldn't have shown up. There were shootouts and deaths, purely by chance, but ......"

Akya thought for a moment and continued.

"I found that in the past two months, similar cases have occurred repeatedly in 11 other affiliated towns of our city, which seem to happen by accident, but the investigation is more complicated than I imagined. Is there a possibility that someone is trying to stir up trouble, to distract our police forces, to find weaknesses in them to exploit? ”

Rolov let out a nasal "um", and Akeya's thoughts coincided with his own.

"That's what I'm here for, Akeya, you seem to be good at handling these kinds of incidents. Recently, the General Police Department is preparing to make a big move to find out who is behind this lurking mastermind, and I hope you can join in, and your experience will definitely come in handy. ”

"If the mayor thinks I'm up to the task, I'm glad to do it."

"Good. Starting today, you are officially transferred to the Fourth Criminal Police Team of the General Police Station, and I have prepared my residence, and I will let my secretary take you to see it later. ”

*****

After getting off work, Leo returned to his apartment on Morcole Street in Andora's car, carrying a plastic bag containing leftovers from his lunch at the restaurant. It's only 6 o'clock, so go back and grab a bite to have a good night's fun. Leo took a big stride, two steps at a time, and ran up to his room on the fifth floor in one go.

The door of a neighbor's house was open on one side, much to Leo's surprise. The houses on either side of his house have been empty since he moved in. Leo took the key to open the door, and thought again, it was still not appropriate for a new tenant not to say hello.

He stood in front of the open door and looked inside, where a hunched man was fiddling with suitcases on the floor.

"You ......"

Before he could say a word, the man who was packing up his things suddenly popped up, turned around sharply, and had a wary expression on his face, which startled Leo, and looked at the man for a moment before speaking.

“…… Yes, the guy at the hotel during the day? ”

Akeya recognized Leo as well, but his vigilance didn't let go right away. The person in front of him is not good-looking, but he can get so close to him twice. If he hadn't spoken, he wouldn't have noticed.

Leo also looked at Akeya, and he was sure that Andora had made sense during the day. In order not to disturb others, he hid his breath a little, but he didn't expect this kid to react so much, and he was immediately ready to fight back. If he called directly, he really wasn't prepared.

"Well, my name is Leo, and I live next door to you, uh...... Let's help each other out in the future. ”

"Akya Trosimi, thank you for your proposal."

The two of them talked about social rhetoric flatly, and then they went back to their own rooms, each busy with their own things, and they thought the same thing in their hearts.

This time, I have a terrible neighbor.
