Chapter 105 Smuggling + Game Background
Now that he was ready to send Jiang Kefan to Peng Ming, Ruan Su sketched out a direction in his mind.
Ruan Su walked out of the shadows, raised his head, and the towering modern building in front of him was extremely conspicuous and magnificent.
On the way of falling just now, they almost had a bird's-eye view of the entire game scene.This time the scene was opened very large, almost depicting a complete modern city.Among them, this gigantic building is the most unique, and it immediately caught his attention.
In Ruan Su's eyes, this coquettish high-rise building almost had the words "Come in quickly" hung on the huge billboard.
"I guess... the game mission this time must be related to this building." Ruan Su pointed at the top of his head, "If Peng Ming is serious about playing the plot right now, most of the time he will rush here."
Jiang Kefan asked, "You mean, do we want to wait for him here?"
Ruan Su thought for a while, then shook his head: "No, let's go in first."
The two came to the tall building and hid in a nearby bunker to observe for a while.It was a building with a strong sense of design, and the surface was made of smooth special glass, like a water well tower.On the back of that building, there is a slightly inferior auxiliary building, and the buildings are connected by overhead passages.They soon discovered that the building was unguarded.The entrance to the building is an ordinary security checkpoint, and there are no guards or guards.
"What's going on..." Jiang Kefan frowned, "Is there no one here?"
Ruan Su narrowed his eyes slightly, and pointed to the figures shuttling through the overhead passage: "There are quite a lot of people inside."
"Then since no one is guarding it, why is such a tall building built here?"
While they were talking, a bird suddenly passed over their heads, circling around the tall building.In the next second, there was only a "boom"—the bird suddenly hit something hard, and fell to pieces from a high altitude.
Jiang Kefan took a step, stared at the bird carcass on the ground for a while, and suddenly realized: "It's the power grid..." He turned his head to look at Ruan Su, "This is covered with a transparent power grid!"
Ruan Su nodded.This time, the difficulty for them to sneak in was greatly increased.
It's better to think of a way...
Ruan Su was thinking about a method when Jiang Kefan suddenly took his hand and reminded him in a low voice, "We are being targeted."
Ruan Su frowned, "Where?"
"Your direction at six o'clock."
Ruan Su was silent for a moment, and finally pulled Jiang Kefan into a low room next to him, "Observe for a while."
The two were in a stalemate, only to hear a sound of tentative footsteps suddenly coming from behind the other side.Ruan Su turned his head sharply, and found that the person who came was actually an old man over half a century old.
He was disheveled, his eyes stared at Ruan Su and Jiang Kefan but their eyes were shining.
"You... what are you doing sneaking around here?"
Just as Jiang Kefan was about to speak, Ruan Su grabbed his hand suddenly: "What does it have to do with you?"
"Oh." The old man smiled strangely, "Actually, I also know what you want to do. There are too many people who want to smuggle into the upper city every day."
Ruan Su was startled.Uptown?Does it mean this building?From this point of view... This high-rise area located in the center of the city is indeed very different from other barren lands around it.
"Are you from the lower city?" The old man then took a step closer to them, his eyes swept over the two of them, and finally settled on Jiang Kefan's face.For some reason, the old man's eyes had a bit of wretchedness, "Boy, you look pretty good... O kind of person?"
It does not make sense.Jiang Kefan couldn't understand these strange words, and was even more disgusted by the old man's unkind eyes, so he raised his middle finger: "Go away, it's none of your business."
Who would have thought that the old man would not retreat but advance, and grabbed Jiang Kefan's finger: "Hehehe, he has quite a personality..."
Jiang Kefan suddenly got goosebumps all over his body, and almost kicked him backwards.But before he made a move, Ruan Su had already captured the old man two or three times, with his knees on the old man's back, one force, in exchange for the other party to ouch again and again: "Don't be careless."
"Hiss... You, you dare to treat me like this!" The old man's body could not stand such abuse, and he burst into tears immediately in pain, "You will regret it——"
Seeing that this man was so noisy, Ruan Su pinched his mouth for fear that he would attract others, "Shut up and stop talking nonsense."
"You, you will definitely regret it!" The old man yelled angrily, "If you kill me, you will never even think about entering the upper city!"
As soon as he heard that the old man really had connections, Jiang Kefan's eyes lit up, he raised his hand and patted Ruan Su's shoulder, "Forget it, forget it, there is no missing piece of meat, listen to him."
Ruan Su hesitated for a moment, then let go.The old man choked, and raised his eyes, "You guys are lucky to have met me—only I can take you in! Because only I... know about that special passage!"
Jiang Kefan and Ruan Su glanced at each other, Jiang Kefan frowned: "Continue."
"These days are the days of flower and bird auctions... and only at this time, the 'special passage' will be open to the public." The old man suddenly smiled evilly, stretched out a finger, and pointed at Jiang Kefan, "But... I You can only take him in, you can't."
Ruan Su was taken aback: "Why?"
"Because of that special passage, only people like him can be allowed in." The old man paused, "You...do not meet the requirements."
Jiang Kefan glanced at Ruan Su: "..."
Ruan Su had a distrustful expression on his face, suspecting that the old man was teasing them, and stretched out his hand just to dunk.When the old man saw that people were impatient, he held his head and threatened, "I'm not kidding you! Electricity is connected to all sides here, and there are biochemical people guarding the gate everywhere, as well as infrared surveillance, drone cruise... There is no such thing as here. A blind spot, you can't escape because of your wings!"
Ruan Su frowned, the old man did know something about this place.Is he an important game NPC?
But listening to his words made Ruan Su and Jiang Kefan separate on the spot...how could it be possible.
Jiang Kefan must be delivered to Peng Ming himself.
In the end, Ruan Su gave up accepting the old man's proposal, stood up and took Jiang Kefan's hand: "The conversation is over, don't follow us anymore."
"You, you—"
Probably because he didn't expect that he would be rejected again and again, the old man turned black with embarrassment.But Ruan Su ignored him, and pulled Jiang Kefan to go out.
"What's next?"
"Think of it again."
But just a few steps after the two of them walked, there was a sudden commotion behind them.Ruan Su turned her head to look, and found that the old man stood up suddenly, changed his face, and insulted something in a calm voice.
Then, he suddenly pulled out a small space gun from his pocket.
"Hmph, if you don't eat a toast, you will be fined—"
Before the words fell, a white light suddenly flashed in front of Ruan Su's eyes.Before he had time to react, the next moment—he lost consciousness.
When she opened her eyes again, Ruan Su found that she was tied up by Wuhua Da, and a ball was stuffed into her mouth so that she couldn't make a sound.He was in a rickety dark cabinet that seemed to be a floating cargo hold.
Oops, I was too careless... I should have expected that the old man came prepared, but now he fell into a trap instead.
where is he nowWhere are you going to be sent?
It was very dark in the cargo box, Ruan Su struggled to hook a hard object with his foot, kicked it again, and a muffled groan came from the opposite side: "...It hurts!"
It's Jiang Kefan.
Ruan Su's heart relaxed, and he was just thinking about how to get rid of the shackles, when another strange male voice suddenly sounded above his head:
"Shh! Don't move."
It was not the old man's voice.Ruan Su froze immediately, what's going on?
He remembered that both he and Jiang Kefan should have been shot and passed out.But now, why did another strange man suddenly appear in front of him?What about the old man before?
The man talking above his head also noticed Ruan Su's vigilance.He leaned forward slightly at this time, and a ray of light leaked from the gap in the iron wall hit him... Then, Ruan Su was a little surprised to find that the other party was holding a small grenade gun.
"Don't be afraid, I'm the Federal Police."
It was only at this time that Ruan Su suddenly realized that when he was wandering near the tall buildings, Jiang Kefan had reminded him that someone was watching them—it was the man in front of him who claimed to be a federal policeman.
It turned out to be a praying mantis catching cicadas, with the oriole behind.
But what purpose did the federal police approach them with?Where are they going now?Thinking that he and Jiang Kefan were still tied up and the situation was still passive, Ruan Su's mood was not at all relaxed.
At this time, the cargo compartment suddenly stopped moving.
"We're here." The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the expression on his face couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
Ruan Su wanted to ask where he was, but he struggled hard a few times, and after being gagged, he could only make some "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"At this time, the policeman noticed his movements, and quickly bent down to help him untie the rope: "Um...sorry, I will untie it for you right now."
After breaking free from the restraints, Ruan Su stared at the strange man in front of him, and subconsciously groped around, trying to find a weapon for self-defense.The police found out what he was thinking and put the muzzle of a gun against the back of Ruan Su's hand, "Don't be nervous... I tied you up because I was afraid of this. Don't be impulsive."
After being blocked by the gun, Ruan Su's movements stopped.Staring at the man in front of him without changing his eyes, "Next time, before reassuring others... it's best to move the gun away first."
The man froze for a moment, blushed immediately, and put the gun back in embarrassment.
"Uh, sorry, professional habits. I mean no harm."
Ruan Su also withdrew his hand, but his eyes were still vigilant, and the atmosphere was tense for a while.
At this time, Jiang Kefan twisted his body angrily and kicked Ruan Su on the back, "Stop talking nonsense, I'm still here!"
Only then did the police untie Jiang Kefan's rope.As soon as Jiang Kefan regained his freedom, he immediately squatted beside Ruan Su, "Hey... are you not injured?!"
Ruan Su also checked himself, shook his head and said, "No...no pain."
"...That's good." Jiang Kefan sighed in horror, "Just now the old man shot you directly in the head...I didn't have time to hide, and I was shot in the next second."
In other words, both he and Jiang Kefan were hit by the old man.
So……
Ruan Su raised his eyes to look at the man in front of him, the latter pursed his lips, and squatted down as if making up his mind.
"Okay, before the cargo door is opened...we still have about 3 minutes. I will hurry up and give you a brief explanation of the current situation."
While the man was saying these words, Jiang Kefan stood up and tried to knock on the iron wall inside the cargo box. From the sound, he estimated that the outer wall was half a meter thick.
They're literally stuck in it.
"Don't waste your time... There is only one way to get out from here," the man stopped Jiang Kefan's movement, "It is to wait for the container door to open automatically, and then we will be sent to the transport lane together with these goods."
As soon as he reminded him, Ruan Su realized that their surroundings were really filled with packing boxes—it turned out that they got mixed up in the route of transporting goods and "smuggled" into the upper city.
It turned out that they were already in the building now.
"About two and a half minutes later, the entire cargo box will be filled with the sprayed disinfectant gas. At that time...we won't be able to chat leisurely like now." The male policeman swallowed nervously, "So, you'd better concentrate now and listen carefully to every word I'm going to say."
"The person who wanted to attack you just now... is the so-called 'Orion'. He is a spontaneous individual in the lower city, and he got a bounty for this. The 'special passage' they said refers to this." The man pointed his finger He tapped the ground, "We will reach the inner surface of the upper city through this cargo hold. As soon as the door is opened, we will be greeted by a group of biochemical humans responsible for transporting. Unlike ordinary cargo, they will carry us Go to a special transport lane, so that it can be sent directly to the backstage of the market. But—if you fall into the market, it will be really bad."
Jiang Kefan asked again: "What is the disinfectant gas you mentioned just now?"
"That's right..." the man stood up suddenly as he spoke, and pointed to a ventilation hole on the roof of the cargo hold. "Sterilizing gas will be sprayed out from here. This gas is poisonous to the human body and cannot come into direct contact with the skin."
Jiang Kefan frowned: "Then what should we do?"
"There is only one way."
The man put his toes against the scattered cargo boxes on the ground.
Jiang Kefan's face darkened immediately: "...you are joking."
The man shook his head and answered him seriously: "These cargo boxes are what I prepared for you just now, they are all completely sealed, and are safe except for the possibility of a little lack of oxygen."
Seeing that the two were still hesitant, the man immediately became a little anxious: "If you don't hide in here, even if you don't consider the issue of disinfectant gas, once the door is opened and three people are alive and kicking in the cargo box, the cyborgs will start attacking us." ! You...don’t know the power of biochemical humans?”
Ruan Su and Jiang Kefan were still a little dazed.
The man covered his face, "No way, you really don't know. How is this possible..."
Ruan Su coughed lightly, and also came to round up the situation: "We are... from outsiders, and we don't know the situation here."
The man adjusted his mood, and immediately pulled himself together to continue admonishing the two of them.
"Okay, time is running out, so I'll give you a quick introduction from the beginning." The man pointed to the ground and then to himself, "This is an autonomous region that belongs to the Federation, and I was assigned by the Federation to investigate a case Police, you can just call my code name Guji."
"What case?"
The man named Gu Ji paused: "It's about the recent frequent smuggling cases of 'auctioning flowers and birds'."
No wonder he has been emphasizing the market just now, so this is what he was referring to?Ruan Su frowned.
Guji continued at this time: "This is a secret operation. In fact, very few people know about this case. I just took over this case two months ago. At that time, the information was strictly blocked. They would scare the enemy and give up everything. I guessed at the time that the other party's actions were so big... The flowers and birds auctioned must not be ordinary flowers and birds. I naively thought they were some rare and exotic animals that were sold illegally... like It's like the extinct panda in the legend. Until I noticed another case. It was a disappearance case. The missing person...is the son of my colleague."
"I didn't connect these two cases at first, until suddenly one day, my superiors asked me to stop. Immediately afterwards, my colleague was dismissed. Only then did I find out that his child... I visited here a few months ago, and it coincided with the time of his disappearance. He was killed here!"
"You mean..." Ruan Su was silent for a while, "Is the so-called 'flower and bird auction' here actually a pretense of human trafficking?"
Guji nodded.
"And... the scale of its actions is much larger than we imagined." Guji's face suddenly became serious, "Since you are outsiders, you must not know the background of this city."
Ruan Su thought for a while, "I noticed that there are obvious polar opposites here... The high-rise building in the center is a standard technology center, while the rest... are large areas of slums."
"That's right, that's what I want to say!" Gu Ji said in a deep voice, "The conflict between the rich and the poor here has reached an extremely sharp point...The upper city is like the core of the entire city, holding 90% of the resources. It Use highland technology to block yourself and not allow outsiders to come in. The so-called lower city... is more like the 'garbage dump' of the upper city, piling up waste and pollutants from the upper city. As for the powerless , the poor living in the 'dump'... nobody cares about their existence, the authorities have all but abandoned them."
"Nowadays, people here tacitly divide people into three, six, and nine grades. The lowest-level garbage dump residents have no human rights at all, and are just humble existences like ants and insects. The purpose of Orion...is to find people in the lower city. Cater to the aesthetic goals of the people in the upper city. And those children who are smuggled there... are often treated inhumanely."
Hearing this, Jiang Kefan was suddenly shocked.Thinking back to the old man who said with a cheap smile that he was "not bad", if he knew what he meant, Jiang Kefan should have beaten the old man until he couldn't find him.
"I have been investigating this case for a long time, but I have not been able to find conclusive evidence. Although my superiors persuaded me to give up, I still can't do nothing. In order to break into the tiger's den... I have to come here in person." Gu Ji lowered his head, and when he raised his eyes again, there was a sharp light in his eyes, "Now, I want to follow the clues now, follow the clues to find out the source, and give everyone the truth."
Ruan Su paused, "But this method is too dangerous."
Guji smiled wryly, and turned sideways, revealing the guns inside his clothes.It seems that he has been prepared for a long time: "There is no way, I also broke the jar. I... also brought a miniature camera and recording equipment, and I can upload the scene I see to the cloud with one click. I have done Good fish, ready to die."
It can be seen that Guji has made a lot of determination.Ruan Su didn't say anything more.Jiang Kefan smacked his mouth and said in a low voice: "This kind of technology is quite convenient."
At this time, Gu Ji raised his head and looked at the two of them again: "Actually, I have been here for three days, and I finally saw 'Orion' today, so I used you a little... I'm sorry, I surprised you."
Ruan Su shook his head and said, "It's okay. We are also thinking about how to get here."
Gu Ji was taken aback: "You came in because..."
Before he finished speaking, a long "hiss—" suddenly came out from the vent hole above his head.The man immediately reacted, "Oops, disinfection is about to start! Get into the box!"
After all, the three of them immediately started unpacking and hiding.The space in the cargo box is large enough for two people to bend their bodies and hide in it.As soon as Jiang Kefan's butt landed on the ground, Ruan Su's hind feet stretched in.
Jiang Kefan was taken aback, and subconsciously kicked Ruan Su's calf: "Why come over here, crawl away!"
Ruan Su grabbed his ankle directly: "Be good."
Jiang Kefan moved a few seconds slower, and Ruan Su had already sat in and sealed the opening of the cargo box.The air in the cargo box was already limited. As soon as Ruan Su came in, Jiang Kefan felt as if his chest was stuffed with a big stone.
"Isn't there a box next to it?"
Ruan Su smiled and took out his hand to rub Jiang Kefan's face: "I'm not afraid that you will run around again in a blink of an eye."
Jiang Kefan knocked off his hand in dissatisfaction: "I'm not a child!"
Ruan Su stopped talking, and adjusted his posture slightly until the sound of gas filling outside became louder and louder.Ruan Su slowed down his breathing, and suddenly remembered something, and asked a little more: "I don't know if Peng Ming has found other teammates now, and the guards here are so strict..."
"Hey..." Jiang Kefan interrupted him suddenly, "Don't underestimate brother Peng Ming."
Ruan Su paused for a moment, then smiled with relief, "...That's right."
The two of them stopped talking.When Peng Ming was mentioned, Jiang Kefan couldn't help recalling that when they parted, he insisted on staying...and even surprised Peng Ming.
Peng Ming must be very worried about him now.It would be great if I could contact Peng Ming as soon as possible and tell Peng Ming that they were all right.
Thinking of this, Jiang Kefan suddenly recalled the last scene when they parted. Peng Ming stared at himself and Ruan Su with mixed expressions, and murmured dumbly: You and him...
Jiang Kefan suddenly felt as if his whole body was electrocuted, and was slowly shocked by an unprecedented sense of shame.
"……Depend on."
Just now I was so busy thinking about how to sneak in, I completely forgot that there was such a stubble!
Ruan Su heard Jiang Kefan's curse, thought he was pointing at himself, and turned around innocently: "What's wrong with me?"
"It's not you," Jiang Kefan was so ashamed that he spoke incoherently, "Bah, it's nothing!"
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Kefan blushed, extremely embarrassed.
He yelled in his heart that it was not good, it was over, would Peng Ming guess where he went... If so, it would really kill Jiang Kefan.
Jiang Kefan never thought that his underground relationship with Ruan Su would be exposed one day... Bah, bah, at least it shouldn't be so soon!
Peng Ming knew what to think! !
Jiang Kefan has always regarded Peng Ming as his important relatives, just like Long Yuan, he really regards them as his elder brother.But now... how should he explain all this to Peng Ming?
He couldn't even explain what happened between him and Ruan Su, let alone have the courage to mention it to Peng Ming.But if Peng Ming took the initiative to ask him at that time, then Jiang Kefan would really be so ashamed that he would find a small hole and get in there.
Jiang Kefan thought about it, but no matter how he thought about it, he was in so much pain that he finally kicked Ruan Su to vent his anger: "It's all up to you! I'll bite you to death!!"
Ruan Su, who was innocently lying on the gun:? ? ?
The box was not big enough for Jiang Kefan to toss about like this, Ruan Su was worried that he would kick the seal open, so she said, "Shh, my treasure, be good."
Just as he was talking, he heard a sudden loud movement outside, and then, a trace of strong light leaked from the gap in the box.
The cargo door was opened.
Jiang Kefan stretched his legs, Ruan Su immediately covered his mouth, and made a "don't move" look in earnest.
Then, they could clearly feel that the cargo box they were in was lifted from it.
After feeling that he was indeed being lifted up, Ruan Su was stunned for a second, and then suddenly found that the top cover of the cargo box was torn open, and the light from outside was projected in brightly.
Oops.It must have been because I didn't pay attention just now that the seal was taken away.
Ruan Su moved his limbs carefully, keeping the movement to a minimum.While leaning towards the gap, I cautiously tried to put the top cover back together.
At that moment, Ruan Su suddenly felt a shadow flashing in front of his eyes. It was an extremely thick mechanical arm, somewhat resembling the appearance of a Terminator after its human skin was peeled off.It was this arm that was holding the cargo box.
Is this the biochemical man...
Seeing that Ruan Su was distracted, Jiang Kefan grabbed his arm and gestured: "What are you looking at?"
At this time, the movement of the arm suddenly froze.Ruan Su frowned, and covered Jiang Kefan's mouth with his hand.Jiang Kefan was caught off guard and almost knocked his teeth.
The atmosphere was stalemate for a short and long three seconds, and finally, the opponent resumed his movements, and Ruan Su also heaved a sigh of relief.
After an unknown amount of time, the cargo box finally stopped, and the surroundings of the two returned to darkness.Jiang Kefan got impatient and wanted to go out to see the situation, but was stopped directly by Ruan Su, who was carefully sailing for thousands of years.
"hold on."
Ruan Su stuck him and wouldn't let him move, so Jiang Kefan had to scratch his hair anxiously.After another 2 minutes, the top cover of the cargo box was suddenly lifted off.
"Hey..." Guji looked at them out of breath, "We're here."
Ruan Su walked out of the shadows, raised his head, and the towering modern building in front of him was extremely conspicuous and magnificent.
On the way of falling just now, they almost had a bird's-eye view of the entire game scene.This time the scene was opened very large, almost depicting a complete modern city.Among them, this gigantic building is the most unique, and it immediately caught his attention.
In Ruan Su's eyes, this coquettish high-rise building almost had the words "Come in quickly" hung on the huge billboard.
"I guess... the game mission this time must be related to this building." Ruan Su pointed at the top of his head, "If Peng Ming is serious about playing the plot right now, most of the time he will rush here."
Jiang Kefan asked, "You mean, do we want to wait for him here?"
Ruan Su thought for a while, then shook his head: "No, let's go in first."
The two came to the tall building and hid in a nearby bunker to observe for a while.It was a building with a strong sense of design, and the surface was made of smooth special glass, like a water well tower.On the back of that building, there is a slightly inferior auxiliary building, and the buildings are connected by overhead passages.They soon discovered that the building was unguarded.The entrance to the building is an ordinary security checkpoint, and there are no guards or guards.
"What's going on..." Jiang Kefan frowned, "Is there no one here?"
Ruan Su narrowed his eyes slightly, and pointed to the figures shuttling through the overhead passage: "There are quite a lot of people inside."
"Then since no one is guarding it, why is such a tall building built here?"
While they were talking, a bird suddenly passed over their heads, circling around the tall building.In the next second, there was only a "boom"—the bird suddenly hit something hard, and fell to pieces from a high altitude.
Jiang Kefan took a step, stared at the bird carcass on the ground for a while, and suddenly realized: "It's the power grid..." He turned his head to look at Ruan Su, "This is covered with a transparent power grid!"
Ruan Su nodded.This time, the difficulty for them to sneak in was greatly increased.
It's better to think of a way...
Ruan Su was thinking about a method when Jiang Kefan suddenly took his hand and reminded him in a low voice, "We are being targeted."
Ruan Su frowned, "Where?"
"Your direction at six o'clock."
Ruan Su was silent for a moment, and finally pulled Jiang Kefan into a low room next to him, "Observe for a while."
The two were in a stalemate, only to hear a sound of tentative footsteps suddenly coming from behind the other side.Ruan Su turned his head sharply, and found that the person who came was actually an old man over half a century old.
He was disheveled, his eyes stared at Ruan Su and Jiang Kefan but their eyes were shining.
"You... what are you doing sneaking around here?"
Just as Jiang Kefan was about to speak, Ruan Su grabbed his hand suddenly: "What does it have to do with you?"

Who would have thought that the old man would not retreat but advance, and grabbed Jiang Kefan's finger: "Hehehe, he has quite a personality..."
Jiang Kefan suddenly got goosebumps all over his body, and almost kicked him backwards.But before he made a move, Ruan Su had already captured the old man two or three times, with his knees on the old man's back, one force, in exchange for the other party to ouch again and again: "Don't be careless."
"Hiss... You, you dare to treat me like this!" The old man's body could not stand such abuse, and he burst into tears immediately in pain, "You will regret it——"
Seeing that this man was so noisy, Ruan Su pinched his mouth for fear that he would attract others, "Shut up and stop talking nonsense."
"You, you will definitely regret it!" The old man yelled angrily, "If you kill me, you will never even think about entering the upper city!"
As soon as he heard that the old man really had connections, Jiang Kefan's eyes lit up, he raised his hand and patted Ruan Su's shoulder, "Forget it, forget it, there is no missing piece of meat, listen to him."
Ruan Su hesitated for a moment, then let go.The old man choked, and raised his eyes, "You guys are lucky to have met me—only I can take you in! Because only I... know about that special passage!"
Jiang Kefan and Ruan Su glanced at each other, Jiang Kefan frowned: "Continue."
"These days are the days of flower and bird auctions... and only at this time, the 'special passage' will be open to the public." The old man suddenly smiled evilly, stretched out a finger, and pointed at Jiang Kefan, "But... I You can only take him in, you can't."
Ruan Su was taken aback: "Why?"
"Because of that special passage, only people like him can be allowed in." The old man paused, "You...do not meet the requirements."
Jiang Kefan glanced at Ruan Su: "..."
Ruan Su had a distrustful expression on his face, suspecting that the old man was teasing them, and stretched out his hand just to dunk.When the old man saw that people were impatient, he held his head and threatened, "I'm not kidding you! Electricity is connected to all sides here, and there are biochemical people guarding the gate everywhere, as well as infrared surveillance, drone cruise... There is no such thing as here. A blind spot, you can't escape because of your wings!"
Ruan Su frowned, the old man did know something about this place.Is he an important game NPC?
But listening to his words made Ruan Su and Jiang Kefan separate on the spot...how could it be possible.
Jiang Kefan must be delivered to Peng Ming himself.
In the end, Ruan Su gave up accepting the old man's proposal, stood up and took Jiang Kefan's hand: "The conversation is over, don't follow us anymore."
"You, you—"
Probably because he didn't expect that he would be rejected again and again, the old man turned black with embarrassment.But Ruan Su ignored him, and pulled Jiang Kefan to go out.
"What's next?"
"Think of it again."
But just a few steps after the two of them walked, there was a sudden commotion behind them.Ruan Su turned her head to look, and found that the old man stood up suddenly, changed his face, and insulted something in a calm voice.

Before the words fell, a white light suddenly flashed in front of Ruan Su's eyes.Before he had time to react, the next moment—he lost consciousness.
When she opened her eyes again, Ruan Su found that she was tied up by Wuhua Da, and a ball was stuffed into her mouth so that she couldn't make a sound.He was in a rickety dark cabinet that seemed to be a floating cargo hold.
Oops, I was too careless... I should have expected that the old man came prepared, but now he fell into a trap instead.
where is he nowWhere are you going to be sent?
It was very dark in the cargo box, Ruan Su struggled to hook a hard object with his foot, kicked it again, and a muffled groan came from the opposite side: "...It hurts!"
It's Jiang Kefan.
Ruan Su's heart relaxed, and he was just thinking about how to get rid of the shackles, when another strange male voice suddenly sounded above his head:
"Shh! Don't move."
It was not the old man's voice.Ruan Su froze immediately, what's going on?
He remembered that both he and Jiang Kefan should have been shot and passed out.But now, why did another strange man suddenly appear in front of him?What about the old man before?
The man talking above his head also noticed Ruan Su's vigilance.He leaned forward slightly at this time, and a ray of light leaked from the gap in the iron wall hit him... Then, Ruan Su was a little surprised to find that the other party was holding a small grenade gun.
"Don't be afraid, I'm the Federal Police."
It was only at this time that Ruan Su suddenly realized that when he was wandering near the tall buildings, Jiang Kefan had reminded him that someone was watching them—it was the man in front of him who claimed to be a federal policeman.
It turned out to be a praying mantis catching cicadas, with the oriole behind.
But what purpose did the federal police approach them with?Where are they going now?Thinking that he and Jiang Kefan were still tied up and the situation was still passive, Ruan Su's mood was not at all relaxed.
At this time, the cargo compartment suddenly stopped moving.
"We're here." The man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the expression on his face couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
Ruan Su wanted to ask where he was, but he struggled hard a few times, and after being gagged, he could only make some "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"At this time, the policeman noticed his movements, and quickly bent down to help him untie the rope: "Um...sorry, I will untie it for you right now."
After breaking free from the restraints, Ruan Su stared at the strange man in front of him, and subconsciously groped around, trying to find a weapon for self-defense.The police found out what he was thinking and put the muzzle of a gun against the back of Ruan Su's hand, "Don't be nervous... I tied you up because I was afraid of this. Don't be impulsive."
After being blocked by the gun, Ruan Su's movements stopped.Staring at the man in front of him without changing his eyes, "Next time, before reassuring others... it's best to move the gun away first."
The man froze for a moment, blushed immediately, and put the gun back in embarrassment.
"Uh, sorry, professional habits. I mean no harm."
Ruan Su also withdrew his hand, but his eyes were still vigilant, and the atmosphere was tense for a while.
At this time, Jiang Kefan twisted his body angrily and kicked Ruan Su on the back, "Stop talking nonsense, I'm still here!"
Only then did the police untie Jiang Kefan's rope.As soon as Jiang Kefan regained his freedom, he immediately squatted beside Ruan Su, "Hey... are you not injured?!"
Ruan Su also checked himself, shook his head and said, "No...no pain."
"...That's good." Jiang Kefan sighed in horror, "Just now the old man shot you directly in the head...I didn't have time to hide, and I was shot in the next second."
In other words, both he and Jiang Kefan were hit by the old man.
So……
Ruan Su raised his eyes to look at the man in front of him, the latter pursed his lips, and squatted down as if making up his mind.
"Okay, before the cargo door is opened...we still have about 3 minutes. I will hurry up and give you a brief explanation of the current situation."
While the man was saying these words, Jiang Kefan stood up and tried to knock on the iron wall inside the cargo box. From the sound, he estimated that the outer wall was half a meter thick.
They're literally stuck in it.
"Don't waste your time... There is only one way to get out from here," the man stopped Jiang Kefan's movement, "It is to wait for the container door to open automatically, and then we will be sent to the transport lane together with these goods."
As soon as he reminded him, Ruan Su realized that their surroundings were really filled with packing boxes—it turned out that they got mixed up in the route of transporting goods and "smuggled" into the upper city.
It turned out that they were already in the building now.
"About two and a half minutes later, the entire cargo box will be filled with the sprayed disinfectant gas. At that time...we won't be able to chat leisurely like now." The male policeman swallowed nervously, "So, you'd better concentrate now and listen carefully to every word I'm going to say."
"The person who wanted to attack you just now... is the so-called 'Orion'. He is a spontaneous individual in the lower city, and he got a bounty for this. The 'special passage' they said refers to this." The man pointed his finger He tapped the ground, "We will reach the inner surface of the upper city through this cargo hold. As soon as the door is opened, we will be greeted by a group of biochemical humans responsible for transporting. Unlike ordinary cargo, they will carry us Go to a special transport lane, so that it can be sent directly to the backstage of the market. But—if you fall into the market, it will be really bad."
Jiang Kefan asked again: "What is the disinfectant gas you mentioned just now?"
"That's right..." the man stood up suddenly as he spoke, and pointed to a ventilation hole on the roof of the cargo hold. "Sterilizing gas will be sprayed out from here. This gas is poisonous to the human body and cannot come into direct contact with the skin."
Jiang Kefan frowned: "Then what should we do?"
"There is only one way."
The man put his toes against the scattered cargo boxes on the ground.
Jiang Kefan's face darkened immediately: "...you are joking."
The man shook his head and answered him seriously: "These cargo boxes are what I prepared for you just now, they are all completely sealed, and are safe except for the possibility of a little lack of oxygen."
Seeing that the two were still hesitant, the man immediately became a little anxious: "If you don't hide in here, even if you don't consider the issue of disinfectant gas, once the door is opened and three people are alive and kicking in the cargo box, the cyborgs will start attacking us." ! You...don’t know the power of biochemical humans?”
Ruan Su and Jiang Kefan were still a little dazed.
The man covered his face, "No way, you really don't know. How is this possible..."
Ruan Su coughed lightly, and also came to round up the situation: "We are... from outsiders, and we don't know the situation here."
The man adjusted his mood, and immediately pulled himself together to continue admonishing the two of them.
"Okay, time is running out, so I'll give you a quick introduction from the beginning." The man pointed to the ground and then to himself, "This is an autonomous region that belongs to the Federation, and I was assigned by the Federation to investigate a case Police, you can just call my code name Guji."
"What case?"
The man named Gu Ji paused: "It's about the recent frequent smuggling cases of 'auctioning flowers and birds'."
No wonder he has been emphasizing the market just now, so this is what he was referring to?Ruan Su frowned.
Guji continued at this time: "This is a secret operation. In fact, very few people know about this case. I just took over this case two months ago. At that time, the information was strictly blocked. They would scare the enemy and give up everything. I guessed at the time that the other party's actions were so big... The flowers and birds auctioned must not be ordinary flowers and birds. I naively thought they were some rare and exotic animals that were sold illegally... like It's like the extinct panda in the legend. Until I noticed another case. It was a disappearance case. The missing person...is the son of my colleague."
"I didn't connect these two cases at first, until suddenly one day, my superiors asked me to stop. Immediately afterwards, my colleague was dismissed. Only then did I find out that his child... I visited here a few months ago, and it coincided with the time of his disappearance. He was killed here!"
"You mean..." Ruan Su was silent for a while, "Is the so-called 'flower and bird auction' here actually a pretense of human trafficking?"
Guji nodded.
"And... the scale of its actions is much larger than we imagined." Guji's face suddenly became serious, "Since you are outsiders, you must not know the background of this city."
Ruan Su thought for a while, "I noticed that there are obvious polar opposites here... The high-rise building in the center is a standard technology center, while the rest... are large areas of slums."
"That's right, that's what I want to say!" Gu Ji said in a deep voice, "The conflict between the rich and the poor here has reached an extremely sharp point...The upper city is like the core of the entire city, holding 90% of the resources. It Use highland technology to block yourself and not allow outsiders to come in. The so-called lower city... is more like the 'garbage dump' of the upper city, piling up waste and pollutants from the upper city. As for the powerless , the poor living in the 'dump'... nobody cares about their existence, the authorities have all but abandoned them."
"Nowadays, people here tacitly divide people into three, six, and nine grades. The lowest-level garbage dump residents have no human rights at all, and are just humble existences like ants and insects. The purpose of Orion...is to find people in the lower city. Cater to the aesthetic goals of the people in the upper city. And those children who are smuggled there... are often treated inhumanely."
Hearing this, Jiang Kefan was suddenly shocked.Thinking back to the old man who said with a cheap smile that he was "not bad", if he knew what he meant, Jiang Kefan should have beaten the old man until he couldn't find him.
"I have been investigating this case for a long time, but I have not been able to find conclusive evidence. Although my superiors persuaded me to give up, I still can't do nothing. In order to break into the tiger's den... I have to come here in person." Gu Ji lowered his head, and when he raised his eyes again, there was a sharp light in his eyes, "Now, I want to follow the clues now, follow the clues to find out the source, and give everyone the truth."
Ruan Su paused, "But this method is too dangerous."
Guji smiled wryly, and turned sideways, revealing the guns inside his clothes.It seems that he has been prepared for a long time: "There is no way, I also broke the jar. I... also brought a miniature camera and recording equipment, and I can upload the scene I see to the cloud with one click. I have done Good fish, ready to die."
It can be seen that Guji has made a lot of determination.Ruan Su didn't say anything more.Jiang Kefan smacked his mouth and said in a low voice: "This kind of technology is quite convenient."
At this time, Gu Ji raised his head and looked at the two of them again: "Actually, I have been here for three days, and I finally saw 'Orion' today, so I used you a little... I'm sorry, I surprised you."
Ruan Su shook his head and said, "It's okay. We are also thinking about how to get here."
Gu Ji was taken aback: "You came in because..."
Before he finished speaking, a long "hiss—" suddenly came out from the vent hole above his head.The man immediately reacted, "Oops, disinfection is about to start! Get into the box!"
After all, the three of them immediately started unpacking and hiding.The space in the cargo box is large enough for two people to bend their bodies and hide in it.As soon as Jiang Kefan's butt landed on the ground, Ruan Su's hind feet stretched in.
Jiang Kefan was taken aback, and subconsciously kicked Ruan Su's calf: "Why come over here, crawl away!"
Ruan Su grabbed his ankle directly: "Be good."
Jiang Kefan moved a few seconds slower, and Ruan Su had already sat in and sealed the opening of the cargo box.The air in the cargo box was already limited. As soon as Ruan Su came in, Jiang Kefan felt as if his chest was stuffed with a big stone.
"Isn't there a box next to it?"
Ruan Su smiled and took out his hand to rub Jiang Kefan's face: "I'm not afraid that you will run around again in a blink of an eye."
Jiang Kefan knocked off his hand in dissatisfaction: "I'm not a child!"
Ruan Su stopped talking, and adjusted his posture slightly until the sound of gas filling outside became louder and louder.Ruan Su slowed down his breathing, and suddenly remembered something, and asked a little more: "I don't know if Peng Ming has found other teammates now, and the guards here are so strict..."
"Hey..." Jiang Kefan interrupted him suddenly, "Don't underestimate brother Peng Ming."
Ruan Su paused for a moment, then smiled with relief, "...That's right."
The two of them stopped talking.When Peng Ming was mentioned, Jiang Kefan couldn't help recalling that when they parted, he insisted on staying...and even surprised Peng Ming.
Peng Ming must be very worried about him now.It would be great if I could contact Peng Ming as soon as possible and tell Peng Ming that they were all right.
Thinking of this, Jiang Kefan suddenly recalled the last scene when they parted. Peng Ming stared at himself and Ruan Su with mixed expressions, and murmured dumbly: You and him...
Jiang Kefan suddenly felt as if his whole body was electrocuted, and was slowly shocked by an unprecedented sense of shame.
"……Depend on."
Just now I was so busy thinking about how to sneak in, I completely forgot that there was such a stubble!
Ruan Su heard Jiang Kefan's curse, thought he was pointing at himself, and turned around innocently: "What's wrong with me?"
"It's not you," Jiang Kefan was so ashamed that he spoke incoherently, "Bah, it's nothing!"
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Kefan blushed, extremely embarrassed.
He yelled in his heart that it was not good, it was over, would Peng Ming guess where he went... If so, it would really kill Jiang Kefan.
Jiang Kefan never thought that his underground relationship with Ruan Su would be exposed one day... Bah, bah, at least it shouldn't be so soon!
Peng Ming knew what to think! !
Jiang Kefan has always regarded Peng Ming as his important relatives, just like Long Yuan, he really regards them as his elder brother.But now... how should he explain all this to Peng Ming?
He couldn't even explain what happened between him and Ruan Su, let alone have the courage to mention it to Peng Ming.But if Peng Ming took the initiative to ask him at that time, then Jiang Kefan would really be so ashamed that he would find a small hole and get in there.
Jiang Kefan thought about it, but no matter how he thought about it, he was in so much pain that he finally kicked Ruan Su to vent his anger: "It's all up to you! I'll bite you to death!!"
Ruan Su, who was innocently lying on the gun:? ? ?
The box was not big enough for Jiang Kefan to toss about like this, Ruan Su was worried that he would kick the seal open, so she said, "Shh, my treasure, be good."
Just as he was talking, he heard a sudden loud movement outside, and then, a trace of strong light leaked from the gap in the box.
The cargo door was opened.
Jiang Kefan stretched his legs, Ruan Su immediately covered his mouth, and made a "don't move" look in earnest.
Then, they could clearly feel that the cargo box they were in was lifted from it.
After feeling that he was indeed being lifted up, Ruan Su was stunned for a second, and then suddenly found that the top cover of the cargo box was torn open, and the light from outside was projected in brightly.
Oops.It must have been because I didn't pay attention just now that the seal was taken away.
Ruan Su moved his limbs carefully, keeping the movement to a minimum.While leaning towards the gap, I cautiously tried to put the top cover back together.
At that moment, Ruan Su suddenly felt a shadow flashing in front of his eyes. It was an extremely thick mechanical arm, somewhat resembling the appearance of a Terminator after its human skin was peeled off.It was this arm that was holding the cargo box.
Is this the biochemical man...
Seeing that Ruan Su was distracted, Jiang Kefan grabbed his arm and gestured: "What are you looking at?"
At this time, the movement of the arm suddenly froze.Ruan Su frowned, and covered Jiang Kefan's mouth with his hand.Jiang Kefan was caught off guard and almost knocked his teeth.
The atmosphere was stalemate for a short and long three seconds, and finally, the opponent resumed his movements, and Ruan Su also heaved a sigh of relief.
After an unknown amount of time, the cargo box finally stopped, and the surroundings of the two returned to darkness.Jiang Kefan got impatient and wanted to go out to see the situation, but was stopped directly by Ruan Su, who was carefully sailing for thousands of years.
"hold on."
Ruan Su stuck him and wouldn't let him move, so Jiang Kefan had to scratch his hair anxiously.After another 2 minutes, the top cover of the cargo box was suddenly lifted off.
"Hey..." Guji looked at them out of breath, "We're here."
