Chapter 309: Xanadu

Song Lan used intimidation tactics, which were extremely effective for the timid "rats".

Eschinvig's status as a cadre allowed him to avoid the Rangers who searched the streets, and since Eschenweg's arrival, every city has been in a state of high tension, with people returning to their homes, shops mostly closed, and no pedestrians on the roads as many as patrolling Rangers.

In such a situation, it is not easy to get a road map.

"I didn't expect him to actually get you the map."

Outside the city, due to the large size of the mutated creatures, Lu Xiang had to lie down and bring his head closer to the map, which was not as big as her claws.

The map was drawn from inside the Rangers, showing not only the entire underground shelter, but also the locations of the various checkpoints and armories.

After seeing this map, Lu Xiang realized that in the Fourth Neutral Country, not only the inhabitants here, but even the spirit of the rangers had been in a state of high tension for a long time, as if they had been preparing for a certain war for a long time.

"The upper and lower areas form a spiral, and they all converge towards the capital of Artyom's army, which is supposed to be the real core of energy."

Song Lan was amazed at the grandeur of the underground shelter, and it was hard for him to imagine how long it took the people of this country to carve out such a path that seemed to lead straight to the center of the earth.

This is no longer something that can be described as a refuge, but has moved the whole country underground.

At the same time, he realized that, with the closed nature of the Fourth Neutral, at least one of them had lived underground for a long time since birth, and had never even seen the sun in any way.

It is extremely difficult to obtain a pass to travel from the Upper Sector to the Lower Zone, and the same is true for those born in the Lower Sector to return to the surface.

In Lu Xiang's words, this is also part of the secrecy measures.

In order to prevent the inhabitants of the lower areas from bringing information back to the surface, it was just that she could hardly imagine how strict the country's intelligence services would be to achieve such a comprehensive information blockade.

"Look at this."

Lu Xiang pointed to an implicit piece of information contained in the map, "They have built a closed network in the lower area, which they call the old network. ”

It's no wonder they can't find any information about the lower areas on the surface network, "The old network should be closely monitored by the intelligence services, and if they make inappropriate remarks, they will be immediately approached by the intelligence staff." ”

The map even demarcates some cities into districts and deliberately concentrates residents who are suspicious of them.

"The 'rat' said it was three days ago that he had last seen the teacher, and that at the speed of the train, she should have been sent to prison long ago."

What happens to a spy who is trapped in an enemy base camp and whose identity has been exposed?

Song Lan looked at this problem from a rational and objective point of view, and suddenly felt that the teacher's current situation might be quite bad, he had seen several film and television works on the theme of undercover investigators before because of some accidental, mysterious, and irresistible factors.

"Don't worry, think about the benefits, maybe your teacher has arranged something."

Song Lan hurriedly said, after all, after hearing the news about the teacher from the "mouse", he always felt that something was not right, "Lying that you are the Eschenvig Army will be found out at once, this really doesn't look like the behavior of a master spy." ”

In fact, the teacher was also identified before being escorted to the lower area, and there was no way to infiltrate at all.

"Now that the map is in hand, let's leave as soon as possible."

……………………………………

At the same time, the other side.

The curtain has come down on a grand show, a retro-style stage show that is now almost extinct in any country, and some people have built museums for them to collect the excavations from the wreckage of war, and even that will not prevent them from being completely eradicated.

But in this city, you can see original dramas, songs and dances and other performances every day.

Not only is it a performance, but this palace-style cabaret theater still retains its pre-war appearance, and you need to pass through the ticket gate when you enter the door, rather than swiping on the code scanner with your mobile phone.

Ash is still immersed in the atmosphere of singing and dancing, but for a layman who has never been exposed to drama, she can't really see any substantive content.

When the audience dispersed, she noticed that the vodka in the cubicle was only empty bottles.

Eschinvig blushed and had a thick neck, and looked like he was conscious.

The expression on Ash's face froze, and he scolded, "Didn't you say that it is forbidden to drink alcohol!" ”

"What is this called drunkenness? What is the saying? ”

Eschenweg couldn't speak, and he paused for a long time before saying, "Oh, yes, it's called a drink!" ”

Hearing this, Ash's teeth chattered, and he wanted to pick up an empty wine bottle and knock it on the back of Eschenvig's head to help him sober up.

"It's normal."

Artyom, who had also drunk a few bottles of vodka, looked much more normal than Essingervig, lit a cigar and enjoyed the afterglow of the play, "These wines are produced according to the pre-war standards, not the mechanical products outside, everything here remains the same as before the war." ”

This is the proudest thing about the Fourth Neutral Country.

Although the people have changed and most of the people who live here have changed, unlike those places that were destroyed by nuclear bombs, they have never been wiped out in the war, but have continued to this day through this project called the shelter.

This is the street he is familiar with, and it has been the same for decades.

"Indeed, it is indeed good, much better than the wine you usually get."

Essingvig, who was lost in the lake, immediately defected to Artem's camp, accusing his own cadres of not being able to get any good goods at all.

"Wine is good wine, and drama performances are also eye-opening."

Essinger did not hesitate to praise, and then, he suddenly changed his words, "But the scenery up there is not bad, you have been here for so long, it's time to go up and have a look, and I will entertain ...... myself."

Before he finished speaking, he fell asleep with his head down.

However, this opening suddenly lowered the atmosphere in the compartment to freezing point.

Ash noticed the change in the face of the intelligence minister, and Artyom, who was silent but his face was visibly gloomy.

See, that's the danger of alcoholism!

Just now, their boss said a topic that is absolutely forbidden in this country in front of others.

"I'm sorry, but our boss likes to talk gibberish when he's drunk."

Ash had to take the initiative to break the silence and apologize, "We have long advised him not to drink so much. ”

Artyom just nodded slightly, and he leaned back in his chair, enjoying the smell of his cigar.

It seemed to calm him down a bit.

After a long time, he finally said, "Yes, but unlike you, no one wants to live on the surface in this country. ”
