The man who came in was about thirty years old, tall and handsome in appearance, giving people a masculine and trustworthy feeling.
His name is Zhu Kunyu.
There is a connection with Huang Fula——
She was his bunk roommate during college.
He was also a good partner who we practiced and struggled with in the beginning.
We once swore to the lamp together to fight for the rise of Daxia.
After graduating from graduate school, the two entered the officialdom almost at the same time, and later developed in different ways.
"We once made a promise that we would help each other and achieve each other's achievements... We must never forget each other if we want to be rich or noble."
As Zhu Kunyu spoke, he punched Huang Fulai in the chest and said, "I heard about you, so after I got off duty, I came to see you as soon as possible. How about it, we are brothers."
"Lao Zhu, you are serious."
Huang Fulai had a smile on his face.
Seeing the smiling faces of his old classmates, on this midsummer morning, he finally felt the first warmth since arriving in Haijing City.
Zhu Kunyu said, "What are you talking about? Do you still think of me as a brother?"
Huang Fulai said, "By the way, I remember you were transferred to Haijing City for only half a year. Before that, you worked in the Quiet Zone Market Management Office. Could it be that you were promoted recently?"
There had been contact between the two before.
Zhu Kunyu was actually not doing well in Haijing City.
Logically speaking, given his official position, it is impossible to get into the Regent Hotel through connections.
This is also the reason why Huang Fulai did not contact Zhu Kunyu immediately after arriving in Haijing City.
Those who blame themselves will drag down their former good brothers.
Zhu Kunyu suddenly laughed in a show-off manner and said proudly, "You don't know this, right? I'm already the director of the Quiet District Police Station."
"real?"
Huang Fulai was shocked, "When did it happen?"
Haijing City is divided into six major areas, and Quiet Area is one of them.
Although it is only one district, it far exceeds the base city of Xucheng in terms of area, population size, economic aggregate, or other aspects.
Becoming the police chief of a quiet zone is a meteoric rise.
In the entire Haijing City, he can be regarded as the number one person.
"Can I lie to you?"
Zhu Kunyu smiled slightly and said, "However, I was promoted just a month ago, so I haven't had time to inform you yet."
"Very good."
Huang Fulai clapped his hands, happy for his former good brother.
He said excitedly, "I remember when you were in school, you were more martial and liked to use strength to solve problems. This position in the police department is very suitable for you. With your talent and ability, you should have been promoted long ago."
Zhu Kunyu smiled with a smile on his face and said with great emotion, "Yes, in this month, I have felt the joy of swimming in the sea and fully displaying my ambitions, and I have also realized that I want to be an official in a super big city like Haijing City."
, you must have your own background and support.”
Huang Fulai nodded slightly.
This sounds a little helpless, but it is indeed true.
Zhu Kunyu said, "Do you know who my backer is?"
Huang Fulai thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid it's a city boss."
In a super giant city like Haijing City with a population of tens of millions, there are seven city leaders who are responsible for the operation of various indoor affairs and the management of different aspects.
Each one has great power.
Of course, the seven city leaders are also ranked.
"You kid, you're still as knowledgeable as you were in college."
Zhu Kunyu nodded and said, "Yes, I did get the respect of the seventh city chief, so I was promoted. This seventh city chief was only transferred to Haijing City half a year ago. In fact, you also know me."
Huang Fulai was startled, "I know him too?"
Zhu Kunyu stopped trying and said, "It's none other than Master Xue Xuanqi."
"Teacher Xue?"
Huang Fulai had a big meal
shock.
This was his mentor when he was a graduate student.
He was also one of the people he respected the most.
"Teacher Xue came to Haijing City half a year ago?"
Huang Fulai was shocked and said, "Why don't I know any news?
Zhu Kunyu took a sip of water and said with a smile, "Actually, I only found out a month ago that Teacher Xue actually entered politics five years ago and was secretly transferred to Haijing City a year ago."
Huang Fu Lai said, "I have been in contact with the teacher in the past few years, but I don't even know about this."
Zhu Kunyu explained with a smile, "This is what the teacher did deliberately. When he first arrived in Haijing City, he did not notify anyone, and the process of performing his duties was relatively confidential. One reason was that the situation in Haijing City was too extreme." It's complicated and different from any other base city, and he arrived by air, so it takes a lot of energy to open up the situation. On the other hand, the teacher didn't tell everyone, but he actually wanted to secretly inspect the students and screen them.
Pick out those who are truly worthy of promotion and reuse.”
"Does the teacher know you are here this time?"
Huang Fu Lai said.
Zhu Kunyu nodded and said, "The teacher asked me to come here. Only with the pass issued by the teacher can I enter the hotel. Otherwise, do you really think that the power of the director of the Quiet District Police Station can get through this?"
Huang Fulai was shocked.
This shows that he is also one of the people chosen by the teacher.
Sure enough, Zhu Kunyu said, "Don't worry, the teacher appreciates you very much. He has already started to make plans. He will definitely give you a clean slate. In fact, this time about the Xucheng base city..."
"We'll talk about it later."
Huang Fulai said eagerly, "I have an urgent matter here, and I need to ask the teacher for help."
Zhu Kunyu smiled slightly and said, "Let me guess, you want to ask the teacher to help you rescue the young man in black who was taken away?"
Huang Fu Lai said, "Yes, yes, after so many years, you can still see through my mind at a glance... Lao Zhu, I assure you, that boy is a rare genius in ancient martial arts in a century, and he has a pure heart."
With a pure heart and the appearance of a saint, no matter what the cost, we must find a way to save him."
"You actually have such a high opinion of him?"
Zhu Kunyu was quite surprised.
He looked at Huang Fu Lai and couldn't help but joked, "Old Huang, Old Huang, you are now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river. You can't even protect yourself. Are you still caring about an outsider with whom you have only met a few times?"
Huang Fula then recounted what happened on the way to escape.
Then he said, "Lao Zhu, tell me yourself, shouldn't such a young genius deserve to be saved?"
Zhu Kunyu was also greatly shocked after hearing this.
"What a benevolent and righteous young man who kills women with his sword and fucks sycophants."
He couldn't help but burst into laughter and praised loudly, "In today's world, there are very few geniuses who have the demeanor of ancient sages. These are the real ancient martial arts seedlings who can indeed be saved."
At this point, he suddenly paused and said, "But..."
"But what?"
Huang Fulai asked.
Zhu Kunyu slowly sat back and said, "But it's too late for you to say it now."
"late?"
Huang Fu Lai was suddenly startled, his face changed suddenly, and he said in a trembling voice, "Could it be that he has been killed? It's all my fault..."
Zhu Kunyu quickly comforted him and said, "It's not what you think. Not many people in the outside world know about this matter now. We are good brothers, so I won't hide it from you. The young man was escorted into the dark prison and sent to the bloody hand peeling machine."
In the hands of the judge..."
Huang Fulai's heart skipped a beat.
When he was in the base city of Xucheng, he had heard about the dark prison and various vicious legends circulated by the wardens who were in charge of this prison that was like the Palace of Hell.
Rumor has it that even if Granite enters the dark prison, several kilograms of juice will be squeezed out.
Let alone a human being of flesh and blood.
There are many ancient martial arts experts who fall into the hands of Guan Zhongliu.
most
I didn't get through it after that.
When the young man in black fell into this living hell, he was probably already tortured.
Thinking of this, Huang Fulai became more and more anxious.
"I know you are in a hurry, but please don't be anxious yet."
Zhu Kunyu held his shoulders.
Then he continued, "It's different from what you imagined, and it's different from what everyone imagined... It's said that the Kong family and other wealthy people from the Xucheng base city secretly gave Guan Zhongliu some money and asked him to ruthlessly punish him."
While torturing the young man, someone also secretly instructed Guan Zhongliu to use torture to pry open the young man's mouth, grab him on your body, and then use you to grab the teacher..."
"Oh, you're still pretending, but you should just tell me directly, what's wrong with him now?"
Huang Fulai said anxiously.
To be honest, as a politician, he is very patient and good at cultivating his character. He rarely loses his temper like this on weekdays.
But when it came to the young man in black, he had a rare series of gaffes.
Zhu Kunyu had no choice but to make a long story short and said, "He was indeed taken into the interrogation room by Guan Zhongliu and tortured secretly. It is said that the bloody-handed skinning judge also prepared a newly developed torture device to be tested on this young man. In order to keep it secret, Guan Zhongliu
The one-person interrogation took a full twelve hours, and even the guards outside changed four times. In the end, I couldn't wait any longer, and secretly
After the prison inmates rushed in, they found that Guan Zhongliu, the young man, and the young man in black had all disappeared."
"Disappeared?"
Huang Fulai thought for a few seconds, but found it hard to understand and asked, "What do you mean?"
"That's what it means literally."
Zhu Kunyu said, "It just disappeared without a trace without leaving any clues. Because it was a secret interrogation, all the surveillance cameras had been shut down in advance. Until now, no one knows what happened inside.
No one can find any trace of Guan Zhongliu, the boy in black."
Huang Fulai opened his mouth and said, "How is that possible?"
This is so bizarre and ridiculous. .??.
How could two living people disappear without any warning or clues in a tightly guarded place like a dark prison?
Even for a strong person in the supernatural realm, at the peak of his strength, it would be difficult for him to escape from the dark prison without alarming anyone.
"At first, we also suspected that the enemy was deliberately setting off smoke bombs to confuse us, but the smoke bombs were too stupid, and according to the information from my insider, this is true.
The fifth mayor of the prison is furious, and now the entire Haijing City is looking for the whereabouts of these two people."
Zhu Kunyu said.
Huang Fulai thought seriously.
This news is very strange.
But it also seems to be good news.
After all, the boy in black was not dead, nor was he tortured.
But where have the others gone?
Could it be...
Huang Fulai suddenly thought of a possibility.
Could it be that he was rescued by the mysterious peerless swordsman?
"Don't worry, I will continue to investigate this matter."
Zhu Kunyu patted his shoulder and said, "As soon as there is news, I will notify you as soon as possible. The teacher is also very interested in this young man in black."
"Then I'll trouble you."
Huang Fulai nodded.
As of now, there is no other way.
We can only take one step at a time.
"Okay, let's continue the previous topic."
Zhu Kunyu said, "I came to you today because I wanted to tell you some top-secret information about the Xucheng base city."
Huang Fulai was startled.
Zhu Kunyu said, "Actually, the fall of the base city of Xucheng was not due to the beast tide, but a conspiracy by some traitors in Haijing City who colluded with the Jie Peng and Yi Ges people."
"What?"
Huang Fulai stood up suddenly, his eyes became sharp, "Are you telling the truth? What is going on?"
Zhu Kunyu said, "Half a year ago, the Jie Peng people discovered a rare metal rich mine underground in the base city of Xucheng. You should have vaguely heard about this news."
Huang Fulai nodded and said, "Yes, it is said to be silver titanium ore. It is the raw material for manufacturing the best Xinwu prosthetic limbs, mechanical organs and brain cores. The entire Jiepeng Empire is making every effort to develop Gaowu, and this metal is needed.
Dozens of investors with Jiepeng and Igus Chamber of Commerce backgrounds came to Xucheng base city and wanted to purchase mining rights at high prices, but they were all rejected by me."
"you are wrong."
Zhu Kunyu looked serious and said, "It's not silver titanium ore, but green tears vibrating gold ore."
"What?"
Huang Fulai instantly lost his composure.
Green Tears Vibranium!
This is a metal far rarer than silver and titanium.
More importantly, the Starry Sky Council has been purchasing this kind of ore at a high price.
One kilogram of Green Tears Vibranium can be exchanged for a mythical ancient martial arts secret book at any branch of the Starry Sky Council around the world.
Other supernatural powers, secret arts, forbidden arts, and witchcraft of other levels.
Or exchange it for a star beast or mecha of the same value.
You can also exchange for a job position in the Starry Sky Council, seek the protection of the Starry Sky Council, and be pardoned for any crimes. You can ask a Starry Sky Councilor to help the donor himself or his family three times...
No one knows what the Starry Sky Council does by collecting the Green Tear Vibranium.
But it just keeps buying it at a high price.
If what is stored under the Xucheng base city is the 'Green Tears Vibranium Mine', it will definitely make any force go crazy for it.
"It was precisely because you were dedicated to serving the public good that you rejected the Jie Peng and Yi Ges people one after another, which made them angry and changed their strategy. Therefore, together with some traitors in Haijing City, they formulated a poisonous plan and planned the Xucheng base city.
fall, guide the star beasts to attack the city, and turn it into an abandoned city under the kiss of the beast. In this way, they can hide it from the outside world, occupy it, and start secretly mining and collecting it without the approval of any level of government in Daxia.
green tears Vibranium."
Zhu Kunyu said.
"What?"
Huang Fu Lai was frightened and angry, with murderous intent in his eyes, and shouted, "These beasts, I am incompatible with them."
The base city of Xucheng fell, and at least over 10,000 people died as a result.
It turns out that all this is a conspiracy.
"When the teacher found out about this, it was already too late to help."
Zhu Kunyu said, "All the messengers you sent to Haijing City for help were killed, and the news never spread. Therefore, except for the designer, no one knew that the Xucheng base city had fallen."
Huang Fulai almost broke his teeth.
This is the truth.
Jie Peng people are hateful.
Those traitors are even more hateful.
They all deserve to be killed.
He took a deep breath.
"Don't the higher-ups know about this?"
Huang Fu Lai said, "Such a major matter should be reported to the commanders as soon as possible. If the commanders come in person and send academicians from the Guoxian Academy to fight together, then this rich mine can be taken over by Daxia."
Zhu Kunyu shook his head and said, "The superiors know, but no commander-in-chief will take action, and none of the academicians of the Guoxian Academy will intervene."
Huang Fu Lai asked, "Why is this?"
Zhu Kunyu said, "Because of the transaction."
"What deal?"
Huang Fulai asked.
Zhu Kunyu said, "You will know when you meet the teacher. In short, whether we can keep the 'Green Tears of Gold and Mine' this time, we cannot rely on the power above, we have to rely on ourselves."
…
…
ghetto.
Li Xiaofei changed his clothes and slightly changed his appearance, then walked on the chaotic streets under the night.
Last night, after casually solving the cruel official Guan Zhongliu, he used the power of 'stealing points in space' to leave without anyone noticing.
An impregnable dark prison was opened.
First, he found a way to access the Internet, activated the mission system, and then according to the mission instructions, before eight o'clock tonight, he needed to find a contact person named 'Sister Feng' in the slums.
Through this mysterious contact, Li Xiaofei was able to completely connect with the members of the Dragon Group in Haijing City.
But Li Xiaofei always had a vague feeling that something was not quite right about this so-called super important task, that it was a bit too rough.
However, we can only take one step at a time.
Walking on the street, Li Xiaofei smelled the smell of home.
As a person who came out of the slums, he is very familiar with the rules of survival in this chaotic, dirty, smelly and primitive environment.
No matter where you stop, you can easily and harmoniously blend into the flow of people around you, as if you have been living in this slum for decades.
Of course, this slum area is many times larger than the Liuhe base city.
According to data released by Haijingcheng officials after a census five years ago, the number of indigenous people here exceeds five million.
But this data has obviously lagged behind.
According to a special study by a private website, the population of the Haijingcheng slum has at least doubled in the past five years.
In other words, the total population of slums has exceeded ten million.
What concept?
At least one third of the total population of Haijing City has become poor.
In addition to natural reproduction, a large part of this growth is caused by unfair competition and elimination in society, causing the original middle class to lose their real estate and wealth and fall into abject poverty.
This dilapidated area covers less than one-tenth of Haijing City's area, but is home to one-third of Haijing City's population.
This number is too deformed.
Ten million.
Put anywhere else, it would be several times the total population of a base city.
Li Xiaofei looked at the crowd in front of him, and when he thought of this data, he didn't know what he was feeling.
Everything should not be like this.
While thinking, he came to the door of a nightclub.
The neon lights that are full of the atmosphere of old Shanghai, the exaggerated lantern shapes, and the young women who come and go, all highlight the identity of this place as the largest nightclub in the East District of the slums.
