Chapter 20: 30 Rusty Water Street
After leaving Lao Chen, Yuan Li and his party drove directly to Rusty Water Street.
The street is at the base of the entire city, which means that the street is located below the ground.
Nowadays, human beings live in cities that are hierarchical according to their hierarchy.
The first floor was the first floor, but the viaduct was widened to become the third floor of the city, and now it has been raised to six floors, and beyond that is a paradise that dwells above the heavy clouds.
And in order to build such a large and towering complex of buildings, the foundation of the city was naturally very deep, and even the bottom formed a chaotic and dirty urban vein.
Nowadays, the city is like a huge tower of Babel, although the space is smaller the higher you go, but there are fewer and fewer people who have the ability to climb up, so everyone's living space has become larger.
As for the ground floor, although the area is large, the number of people is equally huge, the lower the level, the more crowded and chaotic, and the further down, the darker it becomes.
Coupled with the fact that the garbage on the upper floor is discharged down layer by layer, the people at the bottom can already be regarded as living in the abandoned garbage heap at the top, and they want to climb up, but just surviving has exhausted them.
They live to clean up the garbage left from the upper floors, to tinker with the foundations and foundations of skyscrapers, and finally to make themselves part of the base.
And Rusty Water Street, which is on the ground floor, is a little more subtle here than the people on the bottom.
Rusty Street is located closest to the ground in the basement, where the garbage is separated from the ground floor, but the sewage and rust pour deeper into the ground, which is more comfortable than the ground floor.
But the price of living here is just as high, and it's a world without laws.
Those above the surface are exiled to the deeper depths of the ground if they break the law, and Rustwater Street is a gray area in the middle of it, where there are no police, no federations, and only small free groups competing with each other.
They don't pay attention to morality, they don't pay attention to rules, and even abandon human nature, and all they want is that little bit of living space that is slightly more comfortable than others.
"I said captain, is this person reliable?" Dove asked as he drove cautiously, "You can see the way the people outside look at us when we live in a place like this...... It's like they want to swallow us alive......"
"It's normal, we drove down. If they dismantle this car, they can get a lot of money. Yuan Li smiled, "You all have weapons, right?" Be prepared, this place can fight at any time. ”
"Good!" Boiling answered, and two large hands were already gripping the handle of the gun stuck in his waist.
"Doff, let's go to the address that Lao Chen said first." Yuan Li said, "I hope he is at home, and we will leave quickly after asking for information." ”
"Well, but ......," Dove said, looking out the window and driving cautiously, "where are the house numbers on this street?" ”
Yuan Li frowned, "Let's look for it while we open, Lao Chen told us at No. 30 Rusty Water Street, there must be his reason." ”
As the vehicle squeezed through the crowd and drove to the deepest part of Rusty Street, a strange building appeared in front of everyone.
It was a small two-story house made of steel, and the outside of the house was enclosed by an ugly fence made of scrap iron to form a courtyard, and the fence had a gate, and in front of it was a mailbox, on which the words "30 Rusty Water Street" could be faintly seen.
Yuan Li couldn't help frowning, this place looked very strange, this weird feeling not only came from the buildings that were out of place with the surroundings, but also because this place was empty.
In such a crowded and lawless Rusty Street, there is such a strange building that no one dares to approach here.
It's a weird feeling......
Yuan Li took a deep breath and stepped down from the small truck, and he looked back at the people who were staring at his car just now.
The guys followed them like hounds, but when they pulled up to the building, they seemed to be deliberately pulling away.
These people were afraid of Yuan Li so they didn't dare to act rashly, but they also seemed to be afraid of this building so they didn't dare to approach it.
But now there seemed to be a hint of expectation in their eyes, Yuan Li could read their eyes, they were waiting for Yuan Li's death, just like a vulture waiting for its dying prey.
Moving his gaze back to the front of the building, Yuan Li took two steps forward, walked to the gate of the fence and looked carefully at the words on the mailbox, which was indeed written at No. 30 Rusty Water Street.
Yuan Li's nerves were already tense, although Lao Chen said that this Jason was just a poor person, but now he did feel the crisis from this building.
He reached out and grabbed the pistol in the pouch and tentatively shouted into the door, "Jason, are you there?" It was Lao Chen who introduced us. ”
"Hey! Inside, there was a sound! Dove shouted from the side.
Yuan Li sighed, "It seems that your luck is not very good." ”
"Hey, you guys." A voice suddenly came from behind, "What are you looking for this madman?" ”
Yuan Li turned his head and saw a man dressed in tatters standing more than ten meters behind them.
"Do you know where he is?" Yuan Li asked.
"This ...... I...... It's not very clear. The man said in a rambling voice.
Yuan Li shook his head, took out a silver star coin from his pocket, and threw it to the ragged man, "I really don't know?" ”
"That way I'll know a lot better." The man's face instantly smiled, "This madman goes to Lao Kai's bar to drink at this time every day, you just walk along this road, and the most crowded place is Lao Kai's bar." ”
After saying that, the man ran away, for fear that if he ran slowly, the silver coins in his hand would be robbed.
Yuan Li sighed, "I don't think we have any other way, let's go and take a look." ”
The group returned to the car and continued to search in the direction the man had pointed.
After driving about a kilometer, they saw a place with lights, it was a huge dirty pool, there was a clearing in the middle of the pool, there was rusty water behind it, and there was a large water purifier on the shore.
To be able to make these things here, no one dares to make trouble, and this Kai is not easy.
"Dove, you and grandpa stay in the car, don't turn off the heat, boil, you come in with me to see the situation." As soon as the car stopped, Yuan Li said to Dove.
"What about me?" Erin asked suddenly.
"You ......," Yuan Li thought for a moment, "You can come with me too." ”
The two followed Yuan Li out of the car.
