Inside the restaurant door, a woman wearing a skirt came out.
She looked like the front desk manager of a restaurant, with a sophisticated and capable face.
However, she did not recognize Tang Zheng. Today was a private visit incognito. Tang Zheng put on big sunglasses, changed out of his previous clothes, and changed his hairstyle. Unless he was a particularly familiar person, he would not be able to tell that this was him.
The king of Chasing Light City.
The person she greeted was Ji Yuntian.
She was not very familiar with Ji Yuntian. After all, the former director of the Public Security Department was not accessible to ordinary people.
But she knew that this person was Mr. Ji, a platinum member of the restaurant.
"Mr. Ji, you are a distinguished guest, why are you still standing at the door? Please come inside quickly."
Ji Yuntian snorted from his nostrils: "This is our boss, Mr. Tang."
"Oh, hello, Mr. Tang, I didn't expect to be the leader at such a young age. I am too blind to recognize Mount Tai."
Tang Zheng nodded slightly: "It doesn't matter, once it's raw and twice it's cooked, but whether you can let me come a second time depends on whether your store has any special features."
"Don't worry, Mr. Tang. When it comes to food in Zhuguang City, we Gunsling Beauty are second to none. No one dares to be first. I guarantee that you will want to come again after one visit."
"Okay, let's try your specialties today."
Tang Zheng walked indoors. The hotel manager wanted to come over to help him, but was pushed aside by Ning Yuwei and He Xue.
Others didn't know it, but the two of them had heard that Tang Zheng didn't like women's touch.
However, the two of them have been with Tang Zheng for a long time, but they have no scruples in this regard, so in order to avoid arousing Tang Zheng's disgust, they basically don't let other women get close to Tang Zheng.
The beautiful hotel manager with a hot figure couldn't help but follow behind in a depressed manner.
Tang Zheng did not stop on the first floor, but went directly to the second floor.
Seeing Tang Zheng go up to the second floor, the hotel manager's eyes dimmed.
Whether a person has money or not is the most intuitive reflection of which floor he goes to.
There are Chinese dishes on the first floor, hot pot on the second floor, Western food on the third floor, and a feast of mutant beasts on the fourth floor. If we talk about prices, the fourth floor is undoubtedly the most expensive.
It is now known to everyone that eating mutated animal meat can strengthen the body.
It's just that not many people can afford it, and the fourth floor is a high-end consumption place.
Even though it opens today, when there are the most customers, there are still not many people on the fourth floor.
The cheapest one is the hot pot on the second floor.
Of course, the second floor is also the most crowded place.
When Tang Zheng came up, almost half of the hall was occupied. Ji Yuntian wanted a single room, but it was completely unavailable.
"Master Tang, how about we go to the fourth floor to eat?" Ji Yuntian asked tentatively.
Tang Zheng waved his hand: "I'm tired of eating mutated beast meat every day. I'm here today. We don't want to find a private room, so let's eat in the lobby."
Whatever Tang Zheng said, it was of course what it was. Several people followed Tang Zheng and sat down at an empty table in the hall.
There was a buzz of people around, changing cups and cups, and it was full of human smoke and fire.
The arrival of Tang Zheng and others attracted some attention, and many eyes were looking at him from a distance.
Tang Zheng didn't care. After sitting down, Ji Yuntian directly picked up the menu and ordered.
"Four fish from the Fengming River weighing about a pound, six plates of hand-cut mutated beef, seaweed, tofu, eggs, cabbage, river shrimp..."
Ji Yuntian clicked a circle, and the manager in charge of recording next to him had his eyes widened.
This customer is very good at ordering. He is worthy of being a platinum member and seems to be a good scorer.
After ordering more than twenty dishes in a row, Ji Yuntian glanced at Tang Zheng, saw Tang Zheng nodded slightly, and then handed the menu to the manager.
"Two more bottles of white wine, Eudi Maota, at least twenty years old, don't tell me you don't have them."
"Hey, if you have it, I'll get it for you."
The food was served very quickly, and within a short time, a table full of food was already set.
The manager left and several people started eating.
The hot hot pot exudes a strong aroma, and all kinds of delicious food are unavailable even before the end of the world.
At least this mutated beast meat and river fish and river shrimp were not available before the end of the world.
Sticking to the oil plate and sauce, Tang Zheng felt comfortable eating.
There was a table diagonally across from Tang Zheng and the others. There were seven or eight men who ate a lot and drank a lot of wine.
The weather is not too cold now, and several people are sweating profusely from eating, drinking wine to their heart's content, and are talking loudly.
"Brothers, how are you? The food at this table today is pretty good."
"That's great, Brother Zhou. To tell you the truth, I have never felt so comfortable eating since the day this ghost world began."
"It's the same. It's been at least more than three months since I lost more than 20 kilograms. I made up for it today."
"I just looked at the food prices, darling! A plate of small fish from Fengming River costs 20 points. If it weren't for Brother Zhou, I wouldn't be able to afford it. I can only eat a big bowl of wide noodles from Dongcheng Street.
Already."
"Hahaha, Meng Laosan, don't pretend to be poor with me. I believe adventurers are poor, but are there any poor mercenaries? Just show us the sign of our Gale Mercenary Group and get credit here."
"That's right. With your status as the third person in charge of Qin Jialeng, I'm afraid you can let the landlady accompany you for one night, let alone a meal."
"Shh! Keep your voice down, you'd better be careful outside."
"Afraid of a hammer? I have a gun in my hand. Apart from mutated zombies, the only thing that scares me is the Light Chasing Army. What's there to be afraid of in a hotel here?"
"Please keep your voice down. Do you know who this hotel proprietress belongs to?"
"who?"
A man looked around furtively and then pointed at the sky.
"Tang Zheng...woman of the King of Light-Chasing City, how dare you run wild here, are you tired of living?"
The man who had been shouting loudly just now started to sweat a little.
"Really or not? I heard that Tang Zheng doesn't... don't like..." When this man asked this question, he was very cautious and his voice was very low. Tang Zheng didn't even think much about it.
Listen clearly to what he said.
"I've heard about it too, but it's better to believe that this kind of thing exists than to believe that it doesn't exist. It's always right to be careful. If you really offend someone, you don't know how you died. And who is in the city now?
Yes, there are more than twenty mercenary groups like ours, and there are countless adventurers. Walls have ears, so be careful what you say."
"You're right, you're right. I was a little carried away just now."
The voices of several people talking were slightly lowered, and Tang Zheng frowned slightly as he listened.
Why did he get involved in gossip? He didn't even know the owner of this restaurant.
However, he did not delve into this matter. As the highest official of Chasing Light City, there was always a lot of news about him, and he was too lazy to care about it one by one.
The content of the conversation between several members of the Gale Wind Mercenary Group gradually changed its direction.
"Did you hear that? The cave base was taken over by others, and now the base is empty. There is no one left."
"No way. There are tens of thousands of people in that base. How could there be no one left at once? Could it be that they were attacked by zombies?"
"It's not zombies. Another team has been there. The people left very cleanly. Some valuable materials in the base were also taken away. There were signs of fighting at the site. Some corpses and shell casings were found. There were also some ruts outside.
Traces are man-made."
The faces of several adventurers also became solemn.
"That must be man-made, but there are not many people or forces in this land who can take down the cave base in one fell swoop."
"Indeed, apart from Light Chasing City and the Alliance, I'm afraid there are only a few large mercenary groups that can do this. But I'm very surprised that they took away tens of thousands of people. Isn't this adding to the burden on themselves?"
"I don't know if it's a burden or not. I just want to know who did it. But I haven't heard of any large mercenary groups being hired in the past few days. Could it be someone from the umbrella?"
"Then it's hard to tell, but no matter who did this kind of thing, they won't tell anyone. It should be an unsolved case."
The sound of several people drinking was quieter. When Tang Zheng heard this, he couldn't eat any more.
The cave base was ransacked?
This base is a little far away from Zhuguang City, located at the northwest foothills of Guyun Mountain, and is not within the radar range.
Tang Zheng had sent people to this base before, hoping that they could bring people to settle in Zhuguang City, but they were rejected.
That cave was a place that was easy to defend but difficult to attack. Although the opponent's weapons were inferior, they were still capable of fighting against ordinary threats. I didn't expect it to be breached like this.
It sounds like it was done by mercenaries, but mercenaries can basically do anything as long as they provide money and supplies. There is still a mastermind behind this matter.
Taking away more than 10,000 survivors and annihilating the armed forces, who would do such a thing?
Looking back at Ning Yuwei, Tang Zheng said: "Let the Army Aviation Company send a helicopter to investigate the situation in the cave base and bring back detailed information."
"OK."
Ning Yuwei quietly used the intercom to give instructions.
With this matter bothering him, Tang Zheng lost interest in eating and was about to leave.
But unexpectedly, a conflict suddenly broke out in the hotel.
The Gale mercenary group who had just been talking had a quarrel with the people at another table.
"Crazy Madman Huang, have your people gone overboard recently? Adventurer teams usually don't have more than ten people. What are you going to do with forty-five people? The adventurers should go out to collect supplies and come back to earn points.
In your old profession, you are so good that you even took over the task of transporting supplies. Is that what you should do?"
The speaker was Brother Zhou from the Gale Mercenary Group, who was using his alcohol to attack the other people at the table.
The man known as Madman Huang glanced sideways at Brother Zhou: "Zhou Xin, what's wrong? Are all the things like transporting goods and delivering people being contracted by you, Gale Wind? I can do whatever I like, you don't have any business with me.
?”
"What the hell! Why are you talking to Brother Zhou!"
"Clean your mouth!"
After being ridiculed by Madman Huang, the members of the Gale Wind Mercenary Group quit.
Several people stood up one after another and immediately drew their guns.
The people on Madman Huang's side were not to be outdone, and several of them also raised their guns.
The dining scene that was just fine just now suddenly became tense!
