Flint Town is located in the southwest of the New Empire, from here to the north can reach the hinterland of the New Empire, and to the southeast to enter the sphere of influence of the Freedom Wings, so the town can be regarded as a transit station between the New Empire and the Freedom Wings, where all kinds of people are mixed.

But it's really rare to see someone as embarrassed as a turtledove.

His hair was as dirty as a mess of grass, his face was covered with dust and fine grit, his lips were dry and peeled, and his clothes were about to be torn to strips of cloth—when Turtledove and the pickup truck he was driving appeared at the entrance to Flint Town, the pedestrians in the vicinity stopped and everyone looked at Turtledove in unison.

"Look at what, look!"

The turtledove was in a bad mood, and then these people looked at it like a monkey, and the fire in the turtledove's chest "poofed" straight up, making him roar like this, and the onlookers hurriedly turned around and walked away, for fear that this madman would jump up and find trouble for himself.

Due to the many checkpoints placed around the perimeter of the new empire, the residents of Flint Town are rarely harassed by bandits, such as a border town such as Shaliu Town, they will deal with bandits in the lawless lands at every turn, and the residents of Flint Town rarely see living bandits.

Especially after the new empire launched the "purge operation", the robbers in the land outside the law are dead and fleeing, and there is nothing to say about the dead, most of the robbers who escaped the catastrophe gathered in the black iron mines, and a small number of them fled to various towns on the border, but they did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool.

This "thunder pool" is the rule set by the new empire, that is, foreign bandits are not allowed to enter the hinterland of the new empire.

In other words, the inhabitants of Flint Town are like a flock of sheep living in a sheepfold, and although they don't recognize the wolf Turtledove, they are still shocked by the "bandit aura" that inadvertently emerges from him.

……

Scared away the crowd of onlookers, the turtledove couldn't help but feel that his actions just now were a little reckless, this is not a place outside the law, but the territory of the new empire, and he dared to be so arrogant on other people's land, and carefully led those patrols over, you must know that those guys had chased the turtledove for two days and two nights without sleep.

In order to get rid of the patrol, Turtledove deliberately took them around in a big circle, but Turtledove figured that it would not be long before they would find him again, hoping that Geraint would be able to reach Flint Town before the patrol found him.

Turtledove temporarily put aside the miscellaneous thoughts, he took a look inside the flintstone town, and saw a few piles of tires stacked at the door of the house, thinking that it should be a car repair shop there, turtledove said that it is impossible to have no feelings for this pickup, after all, it has been driving for such a long time, or find a place to repair it first.

"You've come to the right place!"

The owner of the garage is a middle-aged black man, chubby, and full of philistine air, but Turtledove doesn't care about the other party's character, he cares about the price.

"I was originally following the convoy to transfer supplies, but I met a group of robbers who escaped from the outside of the law, I was separated from the convoy, and almost all the goods on the car were lost in the chaos, I want to ask you if you accept payment methods other than cash."

From the mouth of the worm, the turtledove knew that there was currency circulation within the new empire, which was very different from the land outside the law, thinking that when he was in the abandoned city, the worm once took out a few gold coins officially issued by the new empire, which were valuable but rare, and the most common was printed with banknotes of various denominations.

The turtledove had no banknotes on him, and he was reluctant to use the gold coin that the worm gave him as a souvenir, so he had to ask if there was any other way to pay, and by the way, he would make up a nonsense, so as not to make the owner of the car repair shop suspicious and run to find the army of the new empire.

"How are you going to pay?"

The owner of the car repair shop rubbed his hands, it was probably not the first time he had done "barter" business with people.

Seeing that the other party had this expression, Ikaruga immediately relaxed his nervousness a little, and said, "For example, guns, bullets, etc., I still have some in the car." ”

"No problem."

The boss's answer was crisp, which made Ikaruga breathe a sigh of relief.

……

He had to go to the town to buy new clothes and get some food and drink, because the owner of the car repair shop said that if this pickup truck was to be repaired, it would take at least a few days for the pickup to be repaired, and Ikaruga pondered that he would use the past few days to get familiar with the customs here, and by the way, he waited for Geraint.

Restaurants and clothing stores were everywhere, and it didn't take much trouble for Ikadove to find them, and what struck him was the novelty of the few banknotes with numbers on them, as Ikadove had never used anything like this before, and that there was no such thing in a place outside the law, either by bartering or being bigger than someone's fist.

Having eaten something casually and getting new clothes, the turtledove was not conspicuous at all in the crowd of people coming and going, and he was dazzled by the dazzling array of shops on both sides of the street, and he was almost unable to walk.

"Something seems wrong."

Turtledove walked and walked vigilantly, he found that the pedestrians around him had become much less at some point, and everyone seemed to be eager to get away from him, and when he looked up, Turtledove saw several people in civilian clothes, handcuffs and pistols standing there looking this way.

"Is this the police that Worm said?"

Every city under the rule of the new empire has a police system to maintain local law and order, and what Ikaruga doesn't understand is that he doesn't look any different from the other people around him, why do these police officers focus on him, is there something unique about people from outside the law?

Without having time to ponder these things, the turtledove turned around and was about to walk backwards, but saw several other policemen blocking the way out, - there were people in front and behind, and the turtledove had no way to escape unless it suddenly grew wings and flew away.

"That young man in front, please take out your identification and cooperate with the inspection!"

A policeman took the lead in walking towards the turtledove, who had some bullshit identification on him, and he was worried that he couldn't find a chance to escape, so someone sent it to the door himself.

The splitter dragged the policeman who was pointing at him, and before he could enter a state of rage, the turtledove threw him backwards, causing all the policemen blocking the road to fall to the ground on all fours, and the turtledove took the opportunity to jump over the crowd and disappear around the corner of the street.
