Chapter 073: Mysterious TA
10 hours, from Fawcett, Wisconsin, where Rhaegar is located, to the address mentioned in the text message, it should be enough to fly. However, again, he didn't want to make a fuss, and when he still didn't know which side of the person he was dealing with, his real name registration and possibly exposing his whereabouts, so he couldn't fly. But without flying, he could not have reached more than 1,800 miles in 10 hours. Even if he found another car, it would take at least 20 hours, and he would have to break the traffic rules N times.
However, since the other party spent so much effort to find Rhaegar and then set such a deadline, there is naturally a reason for him or her. Just when Rhaegar had to find another way to 'steal' another car because he couldn't reply to the text message, a second text message came.
It was an e-ticket, with a name that couldn't have been more ordinary. The bottom of the e-ticket also states that when you get the ticket at the airport, you don't need to use your ID card, and the other party will hack into the airport's ticketing system to handle all the details.
Rhaegar smacked his lips. In a world where life is becoming more and more electronic, hackers are powerful. Of course, this refers not to ordinary hackers, but to masters within masters. Of the people Rhaegar met, Skye was one, and now the mysterious person with whom he 'communicated' across a cell phone that didn't belong to him was another. Rhaegar was a little curious about who was more powerful, the mysterious TA or Skye. He hadn't seen Skye's ceiling, but he didn't know if Skye could hack into the airport's ticketing system. Now it's natural for him to hack into the ticketing system as a yardstick to measure his master.
Who made him a low hand, and a low hand who was slapped in the face......
Then things went well. With this 'stolen' police uniform, Rhaegar easily found two private car drivers one after another, took a hitchhiker all the way to a nearby airport, and then naturally completed the process of exchanging paper tickets at the ticket vending machine - thanks to the TA. The only thing that is a little troublesome is that it is not appropriate to wear a police uniform to take a civil airliner. He had to 'ambush' outside the toilet and steal a suit of overalls from the suitcase of a business man about his size to change into.
Do what is necessary when you need to, right?
When Rhaegar set foot in the city where the agreed address was located, the 10-hour period was only four-fifths of the way through.
The rest of the story didn't go so well. Originally, he thought that the location agreed by the other party with him would be an abandoned building or an old factory or something, either secret or empty, which would be more suitable for plotting something. However, when he came to the agreed place 5 minutes before the appointed time, he found that it was a 7 x 24 convenience store.
Rhaegar had planned to observe for a while when he got to his position. Now in the face of such a situation, he can't show up rashly.
But five minutes, ten minutes, thirty minutes, an hour, an hour and a half...... Rhaegar watched patiently from the rooftop of a building across the street, waiting, convenience store customers coming and going, but none of them looked like a mysterious TA. Not to mention the mysterious TA, there are dozens of people coming and going, but none of them seem to be waiting for anyone.
waited until 10 o'clock in the evening, Rhaegar finally got impatient, took out the mobile phone and looked at it, only to notice that I don't know when the mobile phone entered the black screen and white words again, and the other party typed a lot of words when he didn't respond.
"I didn't see you."
Rhaegar scoffed, "I didn't see you either."
"Did you see the convenience store, stand at the door there, and I can see you through the camera."
It's a camera again, isn't it so mysterious!
"You're somewhere in the city, but you don't show up. Why? ”
Does this need to be asked? It's not because you didn't show up either!
"It seems that you still don't believe me. It's your professional habits, right? ”
What are our professional habits? This sentence seems to mean something else.
"I'll find you."
Look at this one!
If the last sentence ends not with a full stop but with an exclamation point, then Rhaegar can assume that the other party is threatening him, and the other party may be his enemy. But that's the full stop. In addition, the other party spent so much effort to guide him here, if it was to tease him or arrest him, it would be really painstaking. So, Rhaegar is still in that situation: he must compromise first, take the first step of trust, and then know whether the other party is friend or foe.
This state of being controlled by people everywhere is really annoying.
In desperation, Rhaegar prepares to reply that he will appear at the door of the convenience store. And just as he was about to start typing, a new sentence came from the other side.
"I looked up all the cameras from the airport to the convenience store and I knew you were near the convenience store. I've also confirmed that you're the one I'm looking for. This time it's my turn to give in first. If you still want to know what's going on with those of your teammates, go to the next address before the wee hours of the morning. I'll live over there, and I'll answer your questions then. ”
Before Rhaegar could respond, the phone logged out of the hacked state again, and Rhaegar received another text message with no source and no traceability. It's a new address, also for the city. But instead of the slum where Rhaegar is now, it's on the edge of the city. This time, Rhaegar checked the Internet in advance, and the address was a small park, so it seems that the concession of the other party is still up for debate, but the park is indeed surrounded by several apartment buildings for rent to white-collar workers. If there's one place where some mysterious hacker would live, it's the apartment building that is the most likely.
If this mysterious TA doesn't have ulterior motives, then Rhaeggar's 'treasure hunt' is finally coming to an end. I just don't know what kind of surprise the 'treasure' at the end will be.
Maybe this surprise should be put in quotation marks?
This time, Rhaegar didn't hide and wait for a TA to show up - it obviously didn't work. And since the other party has already given in, although it is not much, it may be a trap, but Rhaegar has no choice, right?
So Rhaegar went to that park. It's 11 p.m., and there are still a lot of people in the park. There are non-mainstream people who push and shove and laugh loudly, there are guitarists who put their guitar cases in front of them and wait for others to put money in, there are couples holding hands with sweet honey hair dog food, and there are healthists who have just finished a night run. Rhaegar was right before them, walking slowly. When he was almost walking through the entire park, someone finally walked towards him instead of simply passing by him.
It was a man in a hooded coat. He waved at Rhaegar as he walked over to him, then pulled out his phone and tapped it. The next moment, Regana's phone, which had been in airplane mode, rang.
The other party's smile looked bright under the somewhat exaggerated makeup, but Rhaeggar's attention was more on the other party's hand.
"Play this trick?" Rhaegar smiled at the other as well, and then said this. Without waiting for the other party to react, he stepped forward, reached out and kicked his foot, and gave the other party a crisp over-the-shoulder fall. And just as he raised his fist and was about to punch the opponent's head that had fallen to the ground, an excited female voice came from next to him.
"Stop, stop!"
Rhaegar chuckled and shook his head. This time it's the one who comes out!
