Chapter 68: Exploring the Tiger's Den

The inspection institute is located at No. 17 Anle Street. Unlike other streets, where people come and go, there is not even a single figure within a hundred meters of the entrance of the inspection office.

Even if there are pedestrians passing by occasionally, they will go far to the other side of the street, hurrying with their heads down, walking as fast as they can, as if looking up, the soul will be sucked into the door of the black hole.

The gate of the inspection institute is ten meters wide and more than six meters high, cast in alloy steel, and painted with matte black paint. There is a small door one and a half meters wide on each side.

Further beyond the small gate is the courtyard wall. Near the entrance is the inner eight characters, each extending ten meters outward, is two more than 20 meters high guard towers. Standing on the tower, the entire inspection institute and the three nearby squares are in full view.

Two heavy machine guns were installed in the watchtower, which was enough to cover the fire within a range of 500 meters in front and rear.

From the two watchtowers, there is a horizontal and vertical high wall, six meters high, with an alloy mesh more than a meter high.

Every 500 meters of the high wall, a watchtower is built. On the outer wall of the entire inspection institute, a total of 16 guard towers were built. These high walls and watchtowers, all made of bluestone, are so strong that even cannonballs may not be able to explode.

On the left side of the gate of the inspection institute, there is a vertical plaque of golden silk nanmu hanging, and three gilded characters are written on it - the inspection institute.

Wang Xiaotian struggled to carry the food box, trotted all the way, and came to the small door on the right side of the gate. His force was suppressed by Zhou Ziheng with a secret method. In the eyes of outsiders, he is just an ordinary person of the first-level Force.

What's even worse is that he can only use the power of the first-level Force state now. So, carrying a heavy food box, he trotted for twenty minutes, and he was exhausted and out of breath.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and raised his hand to knock on the door. Three long and one short.

After a while, a window more than twenty centimeters square opened on the small door, revealing a fat, acne-riddled fat face.

"What are you doing?" the fat-faced owner scolded angrily.

Wang Xiaotian timidly replied, "I am from Guangde Building, and Chef Zheng asked me to deliver roast duck to Foreman Li." ”

"Wait. This Foreman Li will really enjoy it. I don't eat the food that costs money in the canteen, but I eat the expensive and scary, the roast duck in Guangde Building. ”

"Hey, people have money, do you care about it?" another voice with a dumb voice said: "Besides, the officials in the courtyard have said that they rarely see the sun a few times a year, and they should be compensated for eating something good." ”

The fat-faced owner's voice was full of injustice, "Hmph, those people will be willing to spend their own money? I'm afraid they didn't come from the locked up criminals, right?"

"Silence. You can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. ”

"Uh, it's okay, it's okay, there's no one else here. ”

After a while, there was a sound of unlocking from inside. Then, with a piercing "creak", the small door opened.

The fat-faced owner said impatiently, "Come in." ”

Behind the gate is a wide road. Wang Xiaotian was just about to move forward. Suddenly, a hoarse voice said, "Wait. ”

Wang Xiaotian turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in his forties, with a thin body, wearing a uniform with the word "Guard", walking out of the duty room, looking Wang Xiaotian up and down, and said, "Look at your face." Are you from Guangde Building?"

Wang Xiaotian nodded.

The middle-aged man looked at Wang Xiaotian again, and said with a suspicious expression: "What about the little grandson who came to send it before?"

Wang Xiaotian said timidly: "Second Brother Sun has an urgent matter at home, so he rushed back in the morning. Master Zheng asked me to send it back for him temporarily. ”

"What's your name?"

"Hu Xiaoming. ”

"How long have you been working in Guangde Building?"

Wang Xiaotian said: "More than half a year. ”

The middle-aged man instructed: "Open the food box, we will check." ”

Wang Xiaotian put down the food box and opened the lid. A scent suddenly came to my face.

"It smells so good. The middle-aged man couldn't help but suck hard, and then began to check.

The so-called inspection is to pinch two slices of roast duck meat, dip it in sauce and eat it in your mouth.

The fat man also reached out and pinched two slices to eat.

The middle-aged man ate two slices of roast duck and asked, "How much does your roast duck in Guangde Building weigh live?"

Wang Xiaotian understood that he was checking his bottom to see if he was pretending, so he said confidently: "The lightest is four and a half catties, and the heaviest one is no more than five catties." However, sometimes the difference is one or two or two. ”

"When roasting duck, how many times do you turn over the oven?"

Wang Xiaotian smiled secretly and said: "Our roast duck does not turn over the oven, and the hanging duck rod will rotate slowly, so that it will be roasted more evenly." ”

After the fat man finished eating, he wanted to reach out and pinch it again, but he was slapped on the back of his hand by the middle-aged man, and retracted his hand with a smile.

The middle-aged man glared at the fat man and said, "Just eat two slices and taste it, you still want to eat it as a meal?"

Then, he turned to Wang Xiaotian and said, "Go ahead." ”

Wang Xiaotian turned his head and took a few steps forward.

The middle-aged man suddenly shouted, "Hu Xiaoming." ”

Wang Xiaotian immediately pretended to respond subconsciously, "Huh?" and then turned around and looked at the middle-aged man blankly.

The middle-aged man saw that his reaction was not abnormal, so he waved his hand, "Let's go." It's okay. ”

Wang Xiaotian walked all the way forward, looking left and right as he walked.

On both sides of the road, rows of houses are built in a staggered manner, all of which are only one floor, about five meters high, and the walls are all made of solid bluestone. The window is open under the eaves, which is not only small, but also high from the ground. Not to mention the lighting, even the ventilation effect is not very good.

In addition, the age of the construction is very old, and the creepers are all over the exterior walls, even if it is a poisonous sun in summer, it cannot heat the walls. So all year round, the house is dark and damp, and ordinary people can't help but shiver even if they go in on dog days in June. Not to mention working long hours inside.

In the flower beds on both sides of the road, in the hidden corners in front of the house and behind the house, Wang Xiaotian also found many secret whistles. These outposts are at least Level 3 Force Force, breathe lightly and long, and wear camouflage combat uniforms, which are barely noticeable by the shadows of bushes or houses.

However, Wang Xiaotian's physical fitness, no matter how you say it, has also been tempered by the fifth-level Force, and strengthened by the heart's blood of the seventh-level alien beast, the Earth Walking Dragon, although there is not much Force that can be used now, but the intelligence of the ears and eyes has not decreased. Finding these sentries is nothing.

According to the way Chef Zheng told him in advance, Wang Xiaotian turned left and right all the way to the entrance of the prison located in the northeast corner.

The building materials here have changed from bluestone to granite, and the outside is covered with a fence made of arm-thick alloy, and the interval between the fences is only about ten centimeters, even children can't drill through, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an iron wall.

The dark sentry has also directly become a bright sentry, everyone is wearing military uniforms and fully armed, and the Force level is at least level three.

The first guard stepped forward, stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Xiaotian and shouted, "What are you doing!"

Wang Xiaotian looked frightened and said, "I'm ...... I'm from Guangde Building, and I'm here to give ...... Send ducks to Foreman Li. ”

The guards looked Wang Xiaotian up and down, and repeated the few questions asked by the middle-aged man at the door just now.

Wang Xiaotian answered one by one. But in my heart, I secretly wondered, why did the guards here ask the same question as the middle-aged man at the door? Is it a unified arrangement, or is it a coincidence?

When the guards saw that Wang Xiaotian's answer was not flawed, they waved to their companions. Two guards surrounded him and asked Wang Xiaotian to open the food box, and each pinched two slices of roast duck meat and ate them.

Then, they opened the side door and let Wang Xiaotian pass.

Wang Xiaotian crossed this gate and saw a fence passage made of arm-thick alloy in front of him, which was more than one meter wide and forty or fifty meters long. Except for the passage, there is a lot of open space around, and people walk in the passage, without any obstruction, and every move is clearly seen by the sentry posts around them.

At a distance of forty or fifty meters, two firing points were arranged on each side of the fence, and at each firing point, a light machine gun was erected, and at least three heavily armed soldiers were on duty inside.

Wang Xiaotian was stunned. Was the designer of this prison a pervert, or was he a persecuted paranoia?

This kind of defensive setup is more than enough to be used at the forefront of the battlefield. Isn't it too wasteful to use it in a prison in Xijing City?

In a place like the Inspection Yuan, who is full of food and support, dares to come here and break in? Isn't that a brain in water?

Even if you have a brain convulsion and want to come to the inspection institute, you have to be a sixth- or seventh-level master, how useful can these ordinary weapons, as well as these third- and fourth-level guards?

Wang Xiaotian thought in his heart, and kept walking forward. Soon pass through the fence passage and enter a house.

There is a large iron gate on the left side of the house, which is guarded by two guards.

Wang Xiaotian stepped forward, but a guard stopped him and asked the question again just now.

Wang Xiaotian answered honestly, and the two guards finished eating the duck meat before entering the big iron gate. After entering, Wang Xiaotian found that the length and width of the inside were only about two meters, and the four walls were empty, only on the top wall, the Force array for lighting and ventilation was depicted.

He was in surprise when he suddenly felt a shaking. Thinking that there had been an earthquake, he hurriedly jumped to a corner, stood against the wall, and looked around nervously.

However, he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. There were no cracks in the walls and they did not collapse. There is no muzzle of a black hole that suddenly sticks out from the corner of the wall.

After a few moments, he felt the room slowly descending. It dawned on him that this room, like the elevator in the shelter, was used to transport people up and down.

After a minute, the room slowly stopped. Then the door opened, and a musty smell rushed in. Then came a neutral voice, "Come out, boy." ”

Wang Xiaotian rubbed his nose, cautiously stretched his head forward, and saw a short and fat big winter melon standing at the door, with no hair on his round head, and wearing a burqa with the word "prison" written on his chest.

To Wang Xiaotian's surprise, this burqa turned out to be a fourth-level Force equipment.

Seeing that he didn't come out, the dwarf winter melon said impatiently: "Boy, get out of here." Lao Tzu is still waiting to eat roast duck. ”

Wang Xiaotian walked out slowly, looking left and right as he walked, checking the surrounding environment. It is a two-meter-wide passage flanked on both sides of solid granite, and at intervals there are lamps on the walls.

The lights were not bright, and the whole passage was gloomy, and the timid had to be frightened.

"Snort--- shut" dwarf winter melon slammed the door shut. Then he turned his head and saw Wang Xiaotian in a daze, and scolded: "Go forward, what are you in a daze? If it weren't for the sake of one million, who would care about you." ”

Wang Xiaotian followed the dwarf winter melon, walked forward fifty or sixty meters, and then came to the corner. When I turned the corner, I saw a very empty space, with a stone table in the middle, and five or six guards wearing "prison" gowns, shouting for gambling money.

Dwarf winter melon walked over to a middle-aged man with a pockmarked face and whispered.

The middle-aged man with a pockmarked face turned around, glanced at Wang Xiaotian, asked the previous question again, and waited for Wang Xiaotian to answer correctly before saying, "Put down the roast duck." You have half an hour. Xiao Pan, you take him to No. 107. ”

Xiao Pan, a dwarf winter melon, nodded, grabbed a large bunch of keys from the stone table, and walked forward. As he walked, the keys in his hands clanged.

Although Wang Xiaotian didn't know why, he still put down the food box according to Mazi's arrangement, followed the dwarf winter melon called Xiao Pan, and continued to walk inside.
