At night, around eight o'clock, Zhou Wu followed a certain street corner designated on the phone and saw the boxes of things that had been agreed on the phone, the experimental equipment that Vivian wanted. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There are no people around, perhaps because there are warehouses nearby, and this street is particularly deserted.

Carrying a paper bag from the car, Zhou Wu checked the New World Coins in the bag, and with the other hand, he picked up the little girl with a flashlight and opened the box to take a look.

After frowning his head, he nodded again.

He glanced at the unsatisfactory expression of the Lori in his arms, and after putting the person down with his left hand, he threw the paper bag in his hand into an empty trash can nearby with his right hand. With a soft sound of "bang", Zhou Wu turned around and hugged the contents of the box to the trunk.

Then, as if he had no curiosity to look around, he started the car, which seemed to him to be a little old, and drove into the light of another street.

And so the deal was done.

"What's wrong?" Driving the car seriously, Zhou Wu glanced at the little girl with a cold face on the side.

"The quality of this batch of equipment is not very high, and some of it is even second-hand." Vivien said, unaware that some of the words came out of her mouth in a serious way, but the onlookers couldn't help but laugh a little.

Zhou Wu didn't mean to laugh, he stopped the car at an intersection in front of him, and the red light on it made the car next to him stop moving forward. Red light stops. It's not easy to answer, his eyes swept around, and suddenly a figure at the corner of the roadside caught his attention.

A yellow person, or a yellow woman dressed in a glamorous way.

Under the street lamp, this woman whose posture and words still seemed a little jerky said something in front of every man who passed by, trying her best to pose for some solicitation postures that often did not achieve the effect in Zhou Wu's eyes. A woman standing on the street, a wandering warbler.

Zhou Wu was stunned, and even the restless honking of the horn behind the car failed to pull his thoughts back.

"You know?" Vivien, who was next to her, looked into his eyes, and she asked. For others, there was more unmistakable contempt in her eyes, this kind of look, after Zhou Wu got along with her for a while, she found that she was looking at many people like this.

It's like looking at a stupid single-celled organism. These were Vivien's exact words.

"Yes." Thinking back, Zhou Wu stepped on the accelerator under his feet, and the shadow at the entrance of the alley skimmed by, drifting farther and farther. "The daughter of the former landlord."

Looking at the figure who was still fighting with him a few days ago, he wanted to get out of the car and ask what had happened during this time.

Thinking that he was still in a state of incognito with Vivian at the moment, Zhou Wu's hand holding the steering wheel was forceful. Sitting in the car, he told the little blonde girl who claimed to be his own researcher about something precious in the world. For example, after he first came to the New World, only the landlord dared to take him in the neighborhood.

"So you want to help her?" Following the loop in Zhou Wu's words, Vivian frowned solemnly and asked along the way, but got a negative answer from this yellow-skinned guy.

"Nope." Zhou Wu shook his head and calmly parked the car with the brand name Kante on the side of the road. "I want to go home, but I can't."

He said in a hoarse voice, and the atmosphere in the car was suddenly quiet and a little terrifying. Occasionally, a hippie on the side of the street sings in the distance, or an unknown warbler tentatively knocks on the glass of the car, but neither of them can break the silence in the car.

The man on the left, holding the steering wheel, seemed to be lost in thought, and he realized that he had lost something that was most different from the group outside, a goal.

What did you come to this world for? Fame, power, power, all those seductive terms in novels and movies slipped through the mind of the traveler, and he threw them into the garbage heap in the depths of his mind. In fact, Zhou Wu's heart knew better than anyone else that he didn't belong here. So, he wanted to go back.

With the help of the power of the so-called mutants, as for the power of science and technology, it is still a long distance in his opinion. But it doesn't hurt to give it a try. I thought to myself.

"We can't save her yet." Xu is trying to break this embarrassing atmosphere, Lori said on the side, and pulled his thoughts back.

"What?" The exotic traveler, who had thought through some questions, restarted the car under his feet and asked. He didn't hear what the girl was saying.

Vivien blinked, her royal blue eyes flashing with a light of thought, what she was planning, or rather sorting out some kind of thought. "In fact, we're running out of money."

Sorting out the words, she said, making the expression of the man next to her serious. No one knows better than him how sad it is to live without money. "And judging from the current economic situation, my deposit of 30,000 New World Coins is far from enough for my research on you and the next experiment."

"In other words, there is no money, right?"

"Yes." The speed of the car slowed down a few bits, and Vivien's voice sounded leisurely in the car. "You've been eating a lot more these days, especially with the more expensive milk and cheese. In my judgment, my deposit lasted until the end of the month at most, which is two weeks later. ”

"So?"

"So, we have to find an adequate source of funding."

Quietly drive into the garage, and from the outside of the garage, you will never know that there is still room in the laboratory. Zhou Wu clapped his hands and pulled down the roller shutter of the garage.

"How long have you been planning this?" Opening the door and entering the house, Zhou Wu asked, making the little girl who had planned to continue talking raise her head. Her expression was puzzled, and there was even a hint of innocence in her royal blue eyes. If it's the first time a stranger who sees her, she will definitely be deceived by the cute expression.

Obviously, Zhou Wu is not among them. "You definitely have a plan." The man, who knew a little bit about this little conspirator, said, "It can't be a hot head." ”

Nodding, Vivien picked up a folded letter that had been slipped through the door and sat down on a table full of them. "Indeed, according to your opinion, we should not hide."

Zhou Wu calmly pulled a stool and sat down, didn't speak, just looked at her and motioned for her to continue.

"Do you know why I chose Ogland as the first place to escape?"

Shaking his head, Zhou Wu, who was still in the illiteracy stage of the world's deep things, did not express any opinions, but just wanted to hear the opinion of the person in charge of this research base, even if her appearance did not seem very reliable.

"Aside from its proximity to the base, it's one of the 10 more chaotic of the 50 states in the New World."

"What do you mean?"

"Because so far, because of the intervention of certain forces, the emerging three major pharmaceutical forces have basically controlled this state, and they only have some influence in this place."

"Huh?" Zhou Wu looked puzzled, because in some kind of his impression of a big organization, it should be all over the country.

"Still don't understand?" Vivien continued to disdain, and to be honest, she would never be a good explainer with this attitude. "Because these three emerging drug groups are developing too fast, they have been suppressed by some established forces. For example, automobiles, arms dealers, hacienda plantations...... In addition, they are not the cause of the state's industry, so they do not directly affect the situation in the underground or aboveground. ”

"So their tentacles aren't as sharp here?"

"That's right, that's why I'm buying a house in a white and Chinese neighborhood where outsiders don't get noticed at all because of the jumpers. And then take advantage of this opportunity that the top management of the homeland is bidding for the supply of arms to the European continent with all its might, and spread our influence to all aspects of this state. Vivien said that it was a plan she had been thinking about for a long time after learning that the company was planning to abandon her.

And for now, everything is steadily moving in this direction.

"It's dangerous." Zhou Wu said that he has read a lot of novels and American dramas, of course, he also knows the danger.

"However, if it succeeds, certain people will definitely keep us safe." The little girl said that she had already weighed the pros and cons very clearly. As long as it can influence this state, it means that it has the votes of this state. Due to economic reasons, she believes that the current leaders on the stage will definitely not last long. As long as they fall to a suitable leader in the next general election, then security is absolutely guaranteed.

Silent, Zhou Wu didn't answer, he actually saw it very clearly. The ultimate goal of this path is to control the vote, but in his view it is a very dangerous thing to do, and controlling the ultimate ownership of a leader is in itself no different from playing with fire. In fact, in his world, there are many gang-godfathers and organizations that have endured as evidence.

But thinking of his physical reasons, the road to becoming stronger in the future definitely depends on the accumulation of money, which somewhat made him a little swaying. With Vivien, he actually knows a lot of things these days, such as the mutant rating system, the high-end force of this world.

Especially after he heard that powerful mutants can even achieve the effect of nuclear explosions, he confirmed this, and the power of mutants is definitely the biggest way to return to his own world.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Wu finally agreed. "Okay, where to start." He believed that the other party definitely had some kind of plan, at least more reliable than the naïve money-making plan he had just started thinking.

"Let's start here." The little girl raised the letter she had picked up from under the door, and her face was filled with an indescribable confidence. It feels like someone is giving you a pillow just after you want to sleep.

Zhou Wu nodded and did not speak. Reached out and took the so-called letter.

"Dear Sir or Madam,

Starting this month, due to the chaos of law and order in the neighborhood, we as property managers will soon start charging a property management fee of $100 per household......"

Looking at the crooked handwriting and content on it, he was sure of one thing, as he was familiar with some of the Taos.

It's a ransom letter.
