In the evening, the Mercedes-Benz G500 passed the border between Poland and Belarus, arrived in Brest, passed the customs at the Brest port, and applied for a special license plate for transit cars. The three of them went to the Brian Hotel that Xie Minyun booked.

Brest is a small border town in Belarus, and there are no tall hotels. Bryan Hotel is a privately run castle-style hotel. The service and environment are naturally not as comfortable as a five-star hotel, but it has a unique atmosphere.

From the picture, the gray European-style steeple castle and the gorgeous and simple Russian style decoration have a mixed style that makes people feel a little awkward.

It is hard to describe it in detail. It is probably the contrast of a young man wearing fashionable and cold clothes, wearing pink autumn pants.

This was carefully selected by Xie Minyun on booking. As for the others, it is probably the "Hanting" in China, the "seven-day" level. Of course, there are also slightly better ones, equivalent to those in domestic three-star hotels, but the degree of goodness is good.

It is also very limited, not as distinctive as the Brian Hotel.

When Li Jiting drove the car to the yard of the castle, all the staff of the hotel, including the boss, came out to greet him. The lineup was quite strong, a chef wearing a white apron, four waiters with inconsistent clothes, and the boss was the ancient one.

The owner of the fort family was a family of four, a total of nine people, and they were applauding in two rows.

When Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun got off the car, the applause that was not originally very loud suddenly became particularly loud. Cheng Mo knew that this was because of Xie Minyun, but listening to the enthusiastic applause and cheerful laughter, he still felt embarrassed.

.

Xie Minyun noticed Cheng Mo's strange expression and whispered: "What's your expression? Are you dissatisfied with my choice?"

"Anyway, it's not my paying, so what's wrong with me?" Cheng Mo glanced at the lawn where there were a few bouquets of red and yellow flowers in the yard and said softly. These flowers were so planted too casually, so they were completely random.

It's not like being deliberately planted there, there is a swimming pool on one side of the yard, with pink neon lights shining on the white fence at the edge of the pool, and it's completely incompatible with the castle next to it.

Cheng Mo guessed that this swimming pool could be used in a few times a year, because Belarus is always low in temperatures, and even in the hottest July and August, the temperature rarely reaches 30c.

"You say this and you have an objection?" Xie Minyun snorted coldly. She had accepted Li Jiting's plan to take them to Moscow. In fact, she didn't care where she went. As long as she didn't hinder her from playing chess with Cheng Mo, she still had no choice but to do so.

Just have a "debate".

These days, Xie Minyun was abused by Cheng Mo in Go so hard that she could hardly take care of herself. Although she had self-doubt at one time, Xie Minyun was never discouraged and insisted on looking for abuse here in Cheng Mo. Later, under Cheng Mo's suggestion, she entered

She is becoming more and more courageous in the face of a master like Cheng Mo, and she has benefited a lot. She has made great progress and has easily broken through the bottleneck that she has always been insurmountable. She has been promoted from level d3 to level d4, and has also pointed out that she has been very good at.

Level d5.

However, all this is not a reason why she didn't ask Cheng Mo for trouble. Perhaps Xie Minyun herself did not realize this problem. Why did she keep the right distance in courteousness when facing others, but only

When facing Cheng Mo, he always wanted to confront him and tried hard to beat him in all aspects.

"No, I actually think it's pretty good, but I want to feel the motel. The feeling of staying in the vast wilderness will make people feel like they are traveling interstellar." Cheng Mo said lightly, he had already touched it completely.

You know how to talk to Xie Minyun. You can't be silent. If you are silent, she will try every means to stimulate you, and you can't argue. If you argue, it will be endless and you will definitely score a win or lose.

For example, once, the two had some disputes over the gap between China and the United States and the future development trends. So the two debated from the cultural level to the economic level, from the history of the two countries to the contemporary social structure, just this topic.

Debate for three days.

Xie Minyun's time to play chess in the past three days has been reduced a little, just to query various data and do her homework for the "debate" the next day. After the argument is over, it is not about the difference between winning and losing. There are not many such things.

Ten years later, there is no way to say who is right and who is wrong.

The reason why the debate ended was because the two people had a dispute over the deontology and consequentialism about moral norms.

Therefore, Cheng Mo discovered that if he wanted to end a dispute with Xie Minyun, the only way was to guide her in another direction.

Sure enough, Xie Minyun was no longer worried about whether Cheng Mo was not satisfied with the hotel she chose, but instead thought about what it would be like to stay in a motel.

After the brief welcome ceremony, the manager, the boss's wife, led Li Jiting, Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun to check in, and invited the three of them to share dinner. After putting their luggage and resting for a while, the group went downstairs to have dinner.

Although it was already past six o'clock, it was still very bright, not like evening at all. The dining room on the first floor hung a huge bearskin, a stone fireplace, light brown wood floors and long log tables.

It has a medieval flavor.

The long log table is filled with a variety of Russian-style dishes, including the famous Russian beef soup. This dish is made of beef, beef, and sour cream. There are also potato cakes and barbecue, and various potatoes.

Dishes are the favorite of Belarusians. Belarusians have a nickname called "6yль6aш", which means "potato lover". It shows how much the Belarusian people love potatoes and are catching up with the legendary Irish people.

There is also Belarusian version of lard residue, that is, fried fat, and essential sour cucumbers and tomatoes.

Li Jiting, who sat on the table, saw a table of authentic Russian delicacies, his eyes shining, and said to the bearded boss in Russian: "I really didn't expect that there is Salou, this is my favorite."

The bearded boss immediately added thick honey wine to Li Jiting, "If you don't have an Asian face, no one will doubt you if you say you are Russian."

Li Jiting smiled "haha" and said, "If I were really Russian, you wouldn't pour me honey wine, so you would have to give me some vodka."

The bearded boss' eyes lit up and immediately asked the waiter to bring two bottles of volts. He took out two frozen cups from the refrigerator. When the waiter brought the wine, he couldn't wait to fill it up and stood up loudly.

Said in Russian: "The first cup, for the gathering"

At the beginning, I couldn't stop. Before I could eat, the two of them had just finished three glasses of wine. The bearded boss was extremely talkative and talked to Li Jiting about the "Brest Fortress War", which was in the history of the great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union.

A heroic page, the Soviet army stationed here fought bloody battles for more than a month, effectively restraining dozens of times its own German forces. On the 30th day of the war, the Brest garrison troops, which initially started the battle, were still holding on, and

The message was sent to the rear headquarters that "This is the fortress, fighting" was always sent.

Before the war, the German army claimed that this fortress, which was only one Russian mile from the Soviet-German border, could be taken down with a charge. However, the last Soviet soldier who had persisted in fighting for more than a year in the lost tunnel of the Brest Fortress was defeated by Germany.

When he was discovered, he was snatched from the crypt by the Germans. The dazzling sunlight made him almost blind.

Faced with the interrogation of the German general, his answer was: "General, do you know how far a Russian is now?"

Speaking of the deep love, the bearded boss burst into tears and sang a song. Then he began to commemorate the glory of the Soviet Union with Li Jiting. The two countries were once the same camp and had similar history. The bearded boss and Li Jiting resonated with each other.

a lot of.

However, no matter how much bearded man loves the Soviet Union and is more satisfied with his current life, most people in the former Soviet countries are like this and will miss the former Soviet Union, but it is absolutely unwilling to ask them to return to that era.

The whole dinner included two senior drunkards, bearded boss and Li Jiting, which was quite fun. Not only did the boss sing the song, but the boss's wife and the boss's daughter also performed traditional Belarusian dances.

If Cheng Mo hadn't accepted it, it would have been an interesting supper. For Xie Minyun, it was the same. Perhaps these two people would not be able to accept the relished Salou that Li Jiting and the bearded boss had eaten in their lives.

The so-called salou is a black lien with raw meat filling, which means applying lard salou mixed with salt and garlic to the black bread of Ukrainian specialty.

When making Salou, meat from the back of the spine or ventral side of the waist and waist is usually used. The meat in these parts is generally high in fat, mostly fat, and the thickness of fat is generally more than 3 cm.

Cheng Mo looked at Li Jiting and swallowed the white fat pork on the bread slices, then shouted loudly in Russian: "It's delicious." He urged Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun to try it. After being rejected by Wuwu, he could only shake his head and say it regretfully.

Mo and Xie Minyun don’t know how to taste real food.

The bearded boss obviously admires guests like Li Jiting and keeps raising his glasses.

The guests and guests had fun together. The bearded boss was drunk, but Li Jiting was basically fine. When he went back to his room to rest, Li Jiting made an appointment with Cheng Mo to meet at twelve o'clock in the evening, but this time the meeting point was not

It was in his room, but on that Mercedes-Benz g500.

In the evening, Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun played chess until after ten o'clock. Xie Minyun returned to the room. Cheng Mo used his laptop to go to the dark web and checked some information from Li Jiting yesterday, including "Black Lightning" and "Hurricane"

"The world's intelligence organization, in addition, he also visited the forum to see if there was any discussion about the theft of the "Cross Bee" and the death of Napoleon VII's father. Unfortunately, Cheng Mo did not find any related posts. It seems

This matter is still in a state of confusion.

Cheng Mo also checked the ranking of "Lanling King" on the list of the Selected Ones yesterday, but Cheng Mo was shocked. He originally thought that Li Jiting's ranking should be higher, but he did not expect it to be only 461.

Of course, the top 500 in the world is already considered amazing, but it is estimated that there is a little difference between Cheng Mo.

So far, the inner world is still a vague concept for Cheng Mo. He seemed to have stood at the door of the inner world, looking into it through a gap, but he was still unable to enter.

At twelve o'clock, Cheng Mo chose the carrier's teleportation point to the co-pilot of the Mercedes-Benz g500 located in the yard. At twelve o'clock, Cheng Mo turned into Lin Zhinuo and appeared in the co-pilot's seat.

Li Jiting was smoking a cigar and looking at his cell phone.

Although it was midnight, the night in Brest was not very dark. In fact, at 10 o'clock, the sky was still a little white. This is the characteristic of summer in high-latitude countries. Li Jiting started the car and drove towards the gate. It was black.

The iron door was closed tightly. As soon as Cheng Mo was about to get out of the car and open the door, he saw the latch moving by himself.

The poplar trees swayed their leaves in the cold evening breeze, making a rustling sound. No one pushed the heavy black iron gate and moved silently, and the whole scene was just a ghost.

Cheng Mo naturally knew that it was Li Jiting's fault, but he did not agree with Li Jiting's lazy behavior. He was careful to sail the ship for thousands of years. Although the map showed that there was no one around, if there was a surveillance or something, it would be bad.

.

But Cheng Mo has no right to criticize Li Jiting. After all, the other party can reach the top 500 in the world, not only by luck.

After driving out of the Brian Hotel, Li Jiting held the steering wheel with one hand and held the cigar with the other hand, "What would you do if you were asked to track down Shirkov?"

"It depends on the situation. If you can use the state machine, it will be easier. If you cannot, it will be more troublesome, especially when the other party has a little anti-reconnaissance ability. I thought you asked me to reveal the news to Napoleon VII

In the world, because I could not track down Shirkov, I asked Napoleon VII to come and look for him, and then I just followed him. After all, Napoleon VII was much better than Shirkov, but now it seems that this is not the case."

"The answer you gave is indeed a good method, but it is still not enough. Assuming your goal is the Crossbee, you will definitely not reveal the news to Napoleon VII."

"If it were me, I wouldn't have wade into this muddy water at all." Cheng Mo said lightly.

“This is a question.”

Cheng Mo thought for a while and said, "Then I will call the police and use the police to track down Shirkov. With my own strength alone, finding him is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Assuming that the police cannot use it, it depends on my grasp.

How much information has been done? I have found a way to find his mobile phone, find a way to investigate his social relationships, and find possible contacts. It’s just that individuals are doing these investigations too long. When they are found out, others should have already run a long way. Maybe

I've been caught by others."

"What is the most important thing about knowing the upgrade of carriers?" Li Jiting suddenly changed his mind and asked.

"Money and Power" Cheng Mo answered without hesitation. Although he did not officially start his upgrade activities, Cheng Mo did not gain anything in the past few days. At least he understood that carrier upgrades are a kind of money-burning

Behavior.

Without a lot of money, it means that you have no way to buy good skills, no way to hire a good team to complete dungeons, no way to buy equipment, no way to hide the whereabouts of the original body, no way to set more for your original body

Protection measures

In short, if you compare the Selected One to a game, it must be a game that you can't play without spending astronomical money.
