Walking through the sci-fi streets of the Big Apple, Zhang Lan imagined for the first time that if the sky was still blue, if mankind had stopped fighting thousands of years ago, maybe all the cities in the future would be what they see today.

"Lord Francis, since you're here, let's get straight to the point, what help does Chairman Joe Barton want me to provide?" Zhang Lan retracted her gaze and looked at Francis on the other side and said calmly.

"Why did Mr. Zhang Lan say this?" Francis smiled.

"Chairman Joe Barton strongly asked me to come over for an interview to deal with the war together, but he had already set off before we met, which only means that he was ready to make a move, in this case, why did I have to go to all the trouble to come over? Obviously, this has nothing to do with the war, and Chairman Joe Barton simply wants to see me. Zhang Lan's brain naturally connected all the doubts into a reasoning question, "How can I think of Zhang Lan?" To be able to win the favor of Chairman Joe Barton, there is only one strength. ”

"Mr. Zhang Lan is quick to talk, in fact, it is really embarrassing to say, Chairman Qiao Barton has instructed that after entertaining several people first, and then ask Mr. Zhang Lan for help, Mr. Zhang Lan directly saw through our unspeakable secrets." Francis said, grabbing the back of his head.

"Are you kidding? Are you really looking for us to be your subordinates? When did the Imperial Bloc run out of such labor? Why didn't the young lady in front of her go? "Yuna is unwilling, you must know that even in the Overlord Group, every time you go on a mission, Yuna can get a lot of commissions, and you want to find her to work for free? There is no difference between robbery and robbery.

"......" Alice glanced at the rearview mirror and pressed the button directly on the isolation window.

"The situation is quite special, just about 1 month ago, the Imperial Institute of Science and Technology, which is under the control of our Chairman Patton, was stolen, and a top-secret engram card was stolen, which contained Chairman Patton's research efforts for nearly 10 years. It is reported that the thieves are now hiding in Queens in the Big Apple, and all the exit routes in the city have been blocked, and external communications have been completely cut off, and the detection unit is closely monitoring every signal source to prevent top-secret information from being transmitted. ”

"We have to recover the data within 7 days, because the crystal card has a time limit, and if the crystal card is not put back to the institute in time, all the data will disappear, and the loss will be irreparable." Francis finally showed a serious expression.

"I understand your eagerness, but what I don't understand is, why should I do such an important thing?" Zhang Lan wondered.

At this moment, the isolation glass in front of her was lowered again, and Alice rarely looked back and said, "The memory card is a more important item than life for the Imperial Group, and we hope that the thief can hand it over intact, but as a soldier of the Imperial Group or I enter, it may stimulate the thief to destroy the memory card, which is absolutely unacceptable to us." ”

"So you can say such a long sentence?" Yuna was shocked.

"Just a description of the situation." With that, Alice closed the glass again.

"That's the basic picture, but what Alice doesn't say is that Queens is the only industrial area in the Big Apple, where the lowest working-class people live, the most chaotic, and the dirtiest, and 98% of the crimes in the Big Apple happen in Queens, which is even crazier than the dirty cities you see on the outside."

Francis is not scaring anyone, you must know that the Imperial Group area has always been the most democratic and free country in the world, and one of the three pillar industries is industry, which has led the global military industry for more than 500 years until it was overtaken by the Overlord Group.

But to this day, the per capita possession of firearms in the Empire Bloc is still the highest in the world, and even the right of the people to bear arms against tyranny is written into the constitution.

The black market arms trade, even after the Imperial Bloc takes over this area, cannot be completely controlled, and can only keep a region called "original sin" in each city, compressing all the evil, ugly, dirty, and low-class people and crimes in this area, keeping the outside world bright and bright, and the surface full of flowers.

Queens is even more than that, God knows where there is armed forces, there are surveillance and even seen there spider tank formations fighting each other.

Another reason why Zhang Lan needs to go is that Zhang Lan's unique energy vision can observe the slightest energy fluctuations, and there is a weak current of about 3.5 volts in the crystal memory card to save or destroy data, which is more efficient than any instrument in the vast Queens.

Zhang Lan was sent to the presidential suite on the top floor of the Imperial Hotel, located in the most prosperous Manhattan district of the Big Apple, with a 270-degree all-glass curtain wall, with an infinity swimming pool, overlooking half of the Manhattan night view.

In addition to the top-of-the-line presidential suite, Francis also prepared a sumptuous reception and waited in the banquet hall downstairs, where the two needed to change their dresses.

"Zhang Lan, you should refuse them." Yuna, who changed into a black shoulderless long evening dress, walked out of the room, the skirt inlaid with rhinestones, as if dragging a galaxy, Zhang Lan looked a little surprised and grew her mouth, she was amazed at Yuna's beauty, it was definitely not her request.

"Hey, did you hear me?" Yuna said upset.

"I heard it, you just want me to refuse the other party's request, not to go to Queens, and no matter what memories will be destroyed." Zhang Lan finally came back to her senses, Zhang Lan, dressed in a black suit and leather shoes, seemed to have been specially selected for the foil Yuna, "Give me a reason." ”

"The Imperial Bloc is notoriously hypocritical, and its role in the international community is becoming weaker, especially since Patton and his brother Joe Barton came to power. If the memory card is really that important, why would it be left to outsiders like us to solve it? I don't know about others, Alice's demonic ability, but it is not inferior to Ye Wuchang and Apollo at all, if she really wants to do it, even if she turns the entire Queens District over, it will be no problem. ”

Yuna said as she walked over to the giant electronic dressing mirror and put on her carefully selected diamond earrings, "I packed the ticket with my name, there must be something wrong with this." ”

Zhang Lan smiled and snapped her fingers, including the locator on her wrist and the monitoring equipment in the surrounding room all became power-off, including the listening equipment.

"Of course I know that they won't give us a simple job to do, but since we're here, we don't have a choice at all, the main thing now is not to find any memory cards, but to find a chance to get out of their surveillance, I need to communicate with Mark and get information from the outside world, otherwise there is no point in coming."

Zhang Lan didn't dare to pack the ticket, Joe Barton could complete the entire peace talks, and if his weight was not enough, then the overall plan would enter the next stage.

"It's not easy to get rid of surveillance here, look, three, two, one." Yuna finished counting, and the door to the presidential suite was opened by Alice, with a serious look on her face, and she was already in a fighting state.

"You're breaking the rules again." Alice looked straight at Zhang Lan.

"I'm sorry, I owe it." Zhang Lan smiled and apologized.

"Then chop your hands off."
