Chapter 310, Casinos and Drugs
Since Li De did not accept the invitation of the fat man of Bordos Star to go to any big hotel, he went to Poordo's intelligence point in Bordos Star under the leadership of Treville.
The location of this intelligence point is located in a factory on the outskirts of the city, ostensibly a factory for the production of chemical agents, but in fact it is for the Poorpeople to collect information from various parts of the planet.
The group chartered a large hovering truck and drove all the way to the factory in the suburbs, but who knew that they saw an unexpected scene. A group of Bordos star chengguan are seizing the factory.
Treville was surprised to see that dozens of members of the Bordos city management team in blue-gray uniforms were blocking the entire factory area with yellow electronic tape at the factory gate.
The workers at the factory were all driven out and gathered in one place to be questioned by several police officers. A Purdo supervisor is negotiating with the leading chengguan.
"This sir, can you do it well! There are still hundreds of workers in our factory, what should we do with your closed factory? The director pleaded. There are really not many cases that can make the arrogant Purdo bow his head and beg for help.
"I can't help it, it's an order from the Temporary Command of the War. We're just executors, we can't help you. If you workers don't have any work, you can come to the temporary war headquarters. We are now recruiting some logisticians who are not afraid of starvation as long as they have the strength. The chengguan didn't even look at the other party, and said directly.
"But......" The director of Pu'er was about to say something, but the leading chengguan was very impatient, and left him there with the other chengguan on his own, leaving only the factory surrounded by electronic isolation belts.
"What's going on?" Trevel walked up to the Pulloc supervisor and quietly drew a rune in the air with his left hand.
Director Pullo was a little surprised at first, but when he saw the runes drawn by Treville's hand, he immediately bowed to him with great respect, and then said, "Your Excellency." Some of our intelligence points here seem to have been detected by the Bordos, and it doesn't matter in peacetime, and now they will clean them up one by one in wartime. No, our intelligence terminal has just been shut down. ”
Treville's face was embarrassed, he didn't expect that the intelligence points of the Purdors would be seized by the Bordos, it seems that these Bordos people are really rough and fine, since they can find out the hidden intelligence points, they still keep it forbearant, and they will not be sealed until the wartime.
Speaking of the information obtained in Bordos before, the authenticity of the information will be discounted.
"What now?" Malone asked Treville.
"What else can I do? Go to the Mel Hotel! At least we had a place to stay. It doesn't cost anything! Trevel said. You must know that Puldo is not all rich, and if Treville spends all his own money at the Bordos Star Hotel, he can save it.
Located in the heart of Lasga, the star capital of Bordos, the Mel Hotel is an 85-storey hotel. The bottom five floors of the hotel are the casino, the next two floors are the restaurants, and the rest are where the hotel stays.
There are two things that are not forbidden in Bordos, and that is gambling and a psychedelic drug called "Afterlife".
It is said that this psychedelic was originally developed as a relaxing drug for the treatment of insomnia patients. But an addictive drug that makes people hallucinate beautiful things has been discovered. The drug was controversial when it was first developed, and many people thought it was like heroin and other addictive drugs, and it should be forbidden, but the Bordos people had a different opinion.
The Bordos people have always pursued a unique way of understanding. They believe that existence is reasonable. The Creator created all this, and has the meaning of its existence, which we may not understand, but we cannot deny its existence.
It's like God created Adam and Eve. The serpent and the forbidden fruit were also created, and the Creator did not erase the bad things, so he had a reason for existence.
For those addictive drugs. It's not that scary, as there are also ways to help kick addiction. Moreover, after knowing the consequences, many people will not try it, although there are many people who are addicted, they are also a few people with weak wills. For the Bordeaux people, it can be regarded as a way to eliminate the weak.
Li De and the others took Jerry Maple's card and successfully registered three suites in the hotel lobby, two of which were free and only one was charged, which helped them save a lot of costs.
Just as Li De and the others checked in, the surveillance camera in the hotel lobby transmitted the image of several people appearing to the office, and the hotel manager looked at the special phone on the screen.
"What's the matter?" A lazy voice came from the phone.
"Boss, those fat sheep have appeared!" The manager whispered.
"Oh? Still hooked! Several of them are big fat sheep, and I have to squeeze them dry! ”
"Yes! "Boss," the manager replied affirmatively, and then hung up the phone carefully. It is said that millions of Bordos coins were exchanged at the airport, and the beggars were sent with thousand-dollar bills.
You know, as a hotel manager, his salary is only 5,000 yuan a month, and those gentlemen have to greet them well, as long as they go to the casino...... The hotel manager seems to see the money rolling in.
However, it was disappointing that Li De and the others really regarded this place as a hotel, completely ignoring the lively casino downstairs. They go out early and return late every day, and they rent several hovercars to walk around the city, seemingly looking at different scenery, but they just don't sit for a while in the casino on the first floor.
Even if it was a small attempt, the manager knew what to do and pull these people into the casino completely. But almost all of those aliens came out of the mud without staining, and even the "Afterlife" that was sent for trial for free, those people didn't seem to have moved.
The hotel manager's head is starting to get bigger. You can't be unwilling to gamble, you still have that gun! But he still didn't give up, and he didn't believe that these alien guys didn't get on the road.
At the same time, Treville's head was bigger. Their Puldo intelligence network here was cleaned up by the Bordos, and the previous intelligence also had many loopholes and errors, which made him unable to do it for a while.
Li De asked someone to disperse and inquire about some cults or possibly Morel according to the plan specified earlier. But looking for a needle in a haystack. Bordeaux is not small, with a population of billions, where to find it?
"It's not a way to go on like this!" Treville discussed with Li De in the hotel with a sad face.
"Well, that's what I thought, too. Don't you have any other way? Li De asked.
"We've moved all the connections here, but there are some places that we still can't find. Especially within the government, but also within some large groups. This is the easiest place to hide, and the easiest to get soul energy replenishment. Treville analyzed.
"What do you think, if you were Moriel, what would you do?" Li De asked rhetorically.
"I should first thoroughly absorb the soul energy of the soul beads, and then find a chance to return myself to the peak state I was in at the beginning. It is said that his soul has not yet returned to the body, so he definitely needs a ritual of soul return. Tréville analyzed.
"The ritual of the return of the soul requires at least the soul energy of ten thousand people as a guarantee." Goth reminded.
"Moraire's soul level is very high, so he needs a lot of soul energy to ensure that his soul returns to the body, so he should be in some large groups, secretly controlling and accumulating these soul energies." Trevel said again.
"Not necessarily!" Li De said, "Maybe he will take advantage of the opportunity to have a large amount of soul energy ingestion to allow himself to recover at one time." That's the safest way to go, isn't it? ”
"A large intake of soul energy? How many people will die! Such a situation would definitely attract the attention of the Bordos planetary government, and he ...... "Thinking of this, Treville suddenly stopped, and a terrible inference appeared in his mind. (To be continued......)
