Just as airfields were built outside the city a long time ago, the air-space interaction base is also a long way from the urban area of the capital city. ☆ →, Zhao Lan adapted to the gravity on the earth that was greater than that of Mars and the 105 Research Institute, and took a commuter bus and began to set off towards the city.

People who are used to living in space or on Mars will feel uncomfortable when they return to Earth. There's gravity on Mars, and there's artificial gravity on the space base that rotates, but that's less than the gravity on Earth. Living in that environment for a long time can lead to a decrease in bone density and muscle strength, which can make it feel like it's hard to move on the planet.

However, Zhao Lan has always paid attention to his physical health, and before coming to the earth, he also carried out a one-month weight-bearing process in strict accordance with the requirements of the manual, so the gravity on the earth will not affect Zhao Lan too much.

In today's highly developed technology, private small flying instruments have replaced cars as the first choice for people's transportation. Correspondingly, the government has also demarcated many waterways in the sky like the previous highways, and those small private flying instruments fly safely and quickly in all corners of the city under the dual control of electronic systems and human pilots.

The commuter bus that Zhao Lan was riding in was such a vehicle. After driving at a high speed of hundreds of kilometers per hour for only a few moments, it sent Zhao Lan from the air-space interaction base to Watson Square in the center of the city.

Watson Square is a square built to commemorate Zhao Huasheng, where all social vehicles are strictly prohibited from passing, and only walking is allowed. And it is the largest gathering of human societies here. The most luxurious entertainment, leisure, shopping and other places. So it's always crowded here. The first stop of Zhao Lan's earth tour is here.

After finding a place to live and settling down, Zhao Lan began to stroll on Watson Square, looking at the prosperity here and feeling the noise here, Zhao Lan's mood unconsciously relaxed. The breeze blew on Zhao Lan's face, and the temperature was just right, neither cold nor hot, and there were gorgeous display screens everywhere you could see. It looks colorful.

In the distance, in the center of Watson Square, the huge statue of Zhao Huasheng is clearly visible, and many people are standing there in front of the statue to take pictures with the statue. At all times, the statue is always preceded by flowers, and there is a special staff member who takes care of these things. This let Zhao Lan know that even after hundreds of years, Zhao Huasheng's contributions to human civilization are still remembered by mankind and have never been forgotten.

"I don't know how my ancestors would have felt when they saw human civilization as it is now. He must have felt very relieved to think about it. Zhao Lan thought so. But now the sky of human civilization has once again begun to cover dark clouds, this time ...... I don't know if there are any people like my ancestors who have stepped forward to turn the tide. ”

Zhao Lan looked at Zhao Huasheng's huge statue with fascination. Over there. Zhao Huasheng stood calmly, calmly looking into the distance, his eyes were full of depth and wisdom. Zhao Huasheng watched quietly, as if he was looking at the future of human civilization. As for whether Zhao Huasheng's vision of the future of mankind is good or bad, no one knows.

Although Zhao Lan, like everyone in human civilization at this moment, has only seen Zhao Huasheng from film and television materials, Zhao Lan knows that he is different from others. He is a descendant of Zhao Huasheng, and when he stood here and looked at the statue, Zhao Lan seemed to be able to feel the blood connection that existed faintly in himself and the statue.

Zhao Lan bought a bouquet of flowers and put it in front of the huge statue, then bowed respectfully, and then left here and returned to the hotel where he was staying to rest. Originally, Zhao Lan planned to visit Professor Sid the next day, and then follow the tour group to visit Mount Everest, but now, because of Li Yunfan's sudden appearance, all this has been lost.

The night was spent in peace. The next morning, Zhao Lan came to a quiet breakfast room and began to wait here. Zhao Lan had already followed Li Yunfan's guidance and got in touch with the person named Rodriguez. After reporting the code given by Li Yunfan, Rodriguez's attitude became extremely respectful. In the communication, Zhao Lan and he made an appointment to meet here, and then Rodriguez would lead Zhao Lan to a secret base belonging to Li Yunfan, where Li Yunfan said that Zhao Lan could find all the evidence that would make him trust him.

Li Yunfan...... What kind of person are you? Do you really have so many different identities as you say, and have single-handedly created your own underground empire under the nose of the civilized government of mankind? Moreover...... Do all this just for fun? ”

While waiting, Zhao Lan's thoughts were always fluctuating, and he couldn't calm down.

After waiting for about ten minutes, a man wearing a regular suit but with an unusually ordinary appearance came to this restaurant, and then walked straight to Zhao Lan, sat down opposite Zhao Lan, and then asked, "Miss Zhao Lan?" ”

The man was probably in his forties. Although his appearance is ordinary, there is always a rigorous and solemn atmosphere between his gestures, which makes people always unconsciously serious when facing him. Hearing the man ask, Zhao Lan said, "I'm Zhao Lan, are you Mr. Rodriguez?" ”

"It's me." Rodriguez nodded, then reached out and shook Zhao Lan gently, "The boss hasn't been in contact with us for a few months, and although the boss often disappears like this, he has never maintained it for as long as this one. I'm glad to finally get the news from the boss from you again, and we are relieved to know that the boss is fine. ”

Zhao Lan noticed that when Rodriguez mentioned the title of "boss", his demeanor would always involuntarily become respectful. Zhao Lan could see that Rodriguez must be a high-ranking figure with good cultivation and rich knowledge, as well as a strong self, no matter how you look at it, such a character should be the leader of a party, but such a character actually maintains a respectful respect for Li Yunfan that is close to worship. This made Zhao Lan couldn't help but raise Li Yunfan's evaluation by another level in his heart.

Zhao Lan's mind turned a little twist and turn, but then he said: "Mr. Rodriguez, your boss is in a very hidden place now, it's just that it's inconvenient to come out for the time being, and he is safe now." ”

"I know that." Rodriguez nodded: "The boss has agreed with us on a daily basis for thousands of ciphers, and each of these thousands of ciphers has a different implicit message that indicates his current situation and the degree of trust of the password holder. The code you have indicates that your boss is now safe, and that you are trusted at a level of A, and that all but top-secret information in the base can be opened to you. ”

"Oh? And this kind of statement? Zhao Lan was taken aback, "Thousands of codes? Each code has a different meaning? I thought it was just a common code. Saying...... Thousands of ciphers, can you clearly remember the different meanings of each cipher? ”

"I can't do that, but the boss can do it." "The boss can clearly remember the meaning of each code," Rodriguez said. After receiving the relevant information of the password holder, we need to query the electronic system to determine the specific information represented by the password. ”

"I see." Zhao Lan nodded, thinking secretly in her heart: "This Li Yunfan really looks like a little tricky. ”

"You don't know what I'm here for, do you?" Zhao Lan continued to ask.

"Yes, we only know that your trust level is A, and accordingly, we will open up all the information with a level of A and lower to you, and you can freely check these materials, or ask us to help you do all things with a level of difficulty A and lower."

The curiosity in Zhao Lan's heart was like a cat's claw, and she couldn't help asking, "Is that so...... So what exactly can I ask you to do for me? Well, let's take an A-level difficulty as an example. ”

"For example, the assassination of a provincial-level administrator." Rodriguez said lightly, his voice did not fluctuate at all, and his expression was as serious as ever. Everything Rodriguez did show that what he said was not a joke.

"How big is your power?" Zhao Lan asked in surprise.

"No, we are not very strong in terms of action." Rodriguez shook his head and denied it, "You know, it's peacetime, the government is on its guards, and it only takes a special operations team to assassinate an administrator." And, after the assassination, it is certain that the government will crack down on us, and we will pay a heavy price for it. So...... We have the strength to engage in small actions in the shadows, but we do not have the strength to confront the government at all. In fact, if it weren't for the wisdom of the boss, we would have been exterminated by the government 10,000 times. ”

"So that's ......" Zhao Lan patted his chest and let out a sigh quietly, "I don't want to know too much about your organization...... I'm a good citizen, I don't want to participate and I don't want to know too much. You'd better take me to the base quickly, and I'll get out of there as soon as I get the information I want. ”

At this moment, Zhao Lan had already made up his mind, and after arriving at the base, in addition to looking for information that could prove Li Yunfan's words, he would definitely not look at any other information, so as not to have too much intersection with this mysterious organization.
